In this winter transfer window, which is not a lively time, the 22-year-old Swedish international Jens Kayust has grabbed a lot of scenes, and multiple teams from the five major leagues have focused on his decision to move.
They believe that the defensive back, who has rejected the INVITATION of the U.S. Football Association and has debuted in the European Cup in just one year of his career, has plenty of time to cash in on his talent and raise the ceiling. Of course, he must also reduce decision-making mistakes in high-level confrontations, as well as the problems of being irritable and too risky.
Looking back at last summer, Kayut, who debuted from Swedish secondary league side Ergruth in October 2016, was rumored to be involved with Newcastle United, Brentford, Crystal Palace, Leeds United and Wolves, with its owner Jutland sitting firmly on the Fishing Platform, hoping to receive at least 15 million euros in transfer fees. In the end, Cayoust, who received an olive branch in two consecutive transfer windows, fell in love with France on January 10 this year – the 10 million euros paid by the Reims club marked his position as the team's historical champion. Over the next half of the season, the Sweden international, deeply influenced by Pirlo and Busquets, will do everything he can to help the three-round unbeaten Reims complete the relegation of Ligue 1.
Speaking of which, I prefer the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry's Kayust, but have an unusual adventure life. This does not refer to his ten years in Oglut and four years in Middle Jutland, but to the enlightenment of that year. From 2005 to 2009, Kayust migrated with his family, briefly taking root in Luoyang and Beijing, China. Rounded up, the Swedish international, who has received formal football training in Beijing, can also be regarded as the endorsement of Chinese football youth training.
Born in Gothenburg, Sweden, to a Swedish mother and a Haitian-American father, Cayoust, nicknamed "Corn" for his tall stature. Due to his family's special background, he has been exposed to multiculturalism since he was a child. At the age of 5, because his father, who was engaged in venture capital, needed to leave for his career, he set off with his mother and sister. This Swedish family, which mixes European and American cultures, crossed the ocean to China, and their first foothold was one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization - Luoyang, Henan.
Kayust recalls his childhood in Luoyang: "That time in China was very interesting. Since there was no international school in Luoyang at that time, my sister and I did not go to a regular school. At that time, there were probably less than 100 foreigners in luoyang, and their professions were basically teachers. ”
In order to integrate the two children into their new lives as soon as possible, Kayust's father found a personal trainer who taught Chinese. The siblings began to study Chinese in a residential apartment. Thanks to the advice of his parents, the Swedish boy is not forced to stay in the house by his personal trainer, and when it is time for recess, he will come to the street to joke with strange but kind uncles, aunts, grandparents. Over time, the combination of theory and practice led to a great increase in the Chinese level of the two children.
After living in Luoyang for a year, Kayust moved to Beijing with his family. Soon, he began formal football training. In Cayoust's memory, he joined two youth clubs in Beijing – one is the Beijing Sports Era Youth Sports Club founded in 1999, most of the students attend the city's international schools, and the other is the Beijing Guoao Cross Country Football Club, founded in 1997 and based on the Olympic Sports Center and listed in 2018 by the Chinese Football Association as a "social football brand youth training institution".
While playing for Beijing Sports, Kayust went to Shanghai with the team to play in a youth championship, not only in China, but also in some asian teams from other countries. Witnessing the sheer size of the invitational, the Swedish parents were completely astonished. In 2009, Kayust, who embarked on the road of football by the Chinese youth training system, returned to his hometown of Sweden. His love affair with Chinese football came to an end.
Incidentally, after returning to Europe from Asia, Kayust, who could play as a midfielder and right winger, also took care of a round of basketball training. After a year of recuperation from a serious injury, he was also shaken by his football career and decided to settle in the United States with his family. In the end, the parents who had hoped that their son could go to the United States to study were persuaded by Erglut's coach Marcus Landz, and after a few hours of talking, Kayuste, who was humble, introverted and hard-working in the eyes of his teammates, was still advancing his football career in Sweden.
In this way, from China to Sweden, from Sweden to France, Cayoust followed the parabola of fate and stood on the stage of the five major leagues in Europe.
Finally, Causte also approached rennes, who won back-to-back games at the beginning of the season last summer, and the head coach there is the former Guoan manager Bruno Genesio, who also lived in Beijing.
"Old Beijing" missed.
