On March 26, Beijing time, 16-year-old Zhao Weilun made his debut on the serie A basketball arena, creating the history of Chinese players.
Growing up in Italy, Zhao Weilun was selected for the Italian U14 Best Team, won the U15 European Youth League (EYBL) division MVP, led the team to the Lombardy Regional First Division Championship, and reached the U14 National Finals.
Although Zhao Weilun is only about 1.85 meters tall now, his talent and skills have been recognized by the Italian football world, so he debuted before he was 17 years old, against the giants Milan Armani.
Zhao Weilun's mother wrote on social media: "Although it was replaced in the garbage time of losing 20 points, the opponent is the Champions League giants Milan, and our children are not afraid of the stage." ”
Seeing that Zhao Weilun created history, many Chinese fans were very happy and left messages: "Wei Lun created the history of Chinese players, the first Chinese player to board the high-level league of Serie A, even if there are Chinese players playing Serie A in the future, it will be difficult to break The youngest age of Wei Lun, who is less than 17 years old." ”
Some fans also said that they do not want Zhao Weilun to return to China to play in the future, "I hope that Xiao Zhao will not return to the CBA to play in the future, and continue to stay in Serie A to improve himself." ”
At present, there are no Chinese players playing in the Europa League, and Dai Hao and Zhang Zhiyao, who are now playing for the Shanghai men's basketball team, have both played in Europe but have not gained a foothold.
