No player is willing to give up a professional contract for a European football club. There is only one reason for not playing in Europe, and for these top players in the country, there is only one reason, that is, they cannot get a European professional contract.
Three years ago, the Chinese Football Association made a wish to build the Chinese Super League into the world's sixth largest professional league. Three years later, when Ito Jun from the First League was also in and out of no man's land in a group of Chinese Super League players, we found out how ignorant the Chinese Football Association was about European football to be able to make such a wish publicly and openly.
A Junya Ito is enough to make us see how big the gap between the Chinese Super League and European professional football is. Especially at a time when Chinese football is preparing to change to the route of staying in the West, Ito Jun can also help Chinese football polish the "eyes" and let us see the reality clearly, so as not to have a low eye and a low hand, and then it will be a bamboo basket to hit the water. In addition, as long as we pay a little attention to the performance of Jun Ito before going abroad, it is not difficult for us to find that players at the international level stay in the Ocean because they have strength, rather than greatly improving the level of players through staying in the Country. In other words, it is impossible to achieve the national team's curve overtaking by pushing the international team to stay in the ocean.
In this round of 12, the two-legged confrontation between China and Japan, whether it is Wang Shenchao or Zheng Zheng - these top local players in the Chinese Super League - can not effectively block it isotonic Jun's continuous deadly attacks. The latter, on the other hand, is not a star of the five major leagues, but a player from the midstream of the League A. Of course, Jun Ito is also in the non-idle generation of Bijia, and was once the assist king of Last Season's Bijia. However, in any case, the "iron barrel array" laid down by a group of Chinese Super League celebrities was actually like paper paste in front of this player, which was far from the grand vision of the Football Association for the Chinese Super League.
After Chinese fans see Ito Jun's performance so brave, the usual reaction is, he is so good, why not go to the five major leagues? Such an idea is actually very much in line with the "world view" of Chinese football: it seems that only the five major leagues are high-level leagues. As everyone knows, with the real level of the international team at the moment, to go to a "small" league like the first division is a high climb. Otherwise, the national football team will not have two matches with the Japanese team, and all of them will be rushed by this Jun Ito.
We don't know if Jun Ito will be poached by the teams of the big five leagues in the future. What we can be sure of is that the gap between Chinese football and European football is probably much larger than we originally thought. Therefore, there is no basis for Chinese players to land in Europe in large numbers like Japan and South Korea, and it is not something that can be promoted by the Chinese Football Association exerting external forces.
For the international football team to stay in the West, we also have a misunderstanding, always think that Chinese players are too comfortable at home, so they do not want to go abroad to play football. In fact, among some of the international-level players contacted by reporters, none of them would be willing to give up their professional contracts for European football clubs. There is only one reason for not playing in Europe, and for these top players in the country, there is only one reason, that is, they cannot get a European professional contract. In other words, any international who has the confidence to gain a foothold in the European professional league, even if the club refuses to let people go, will always try their best to get out. International-level players tend to have better career plans than we think.
Players go to Play in Europe, and it is difficult to succeed without a guarantee of strength. Although players can also take advantage of some commercial opportunities to get contracts from European clubs, whether they can play in the end is still up to the coach of the team. Unlike our domestic leagues, club investors can easily influence the team's dressing room if they want.
Therefore, at the current level of Chinese international footballers, it is unrealistic to set off a so-called wave of staying in the ocean. Even if the Chinese Football Association sends some international footballers to stay in the West in a sporty way, such a model of staying in the West lacks the strength of players as a basis and is not sustainable.
In fact, just by looking at Jun Ito's past tournament highlights in Kashiwa Helios, it is not difficult to find that he has achieved such great success in the first division because he already has considerable strength. It was not that he had the courage he has now after the armor was gilded. Therefore, from Junya Ito's case of staying in the ocean, we should also keep a sober mind about the international team staying in the ocean: a successful stay in the ocean will definitely make the players more mature, but it is unrealistic to make the international-level players greatly improve their strength through staying in the ocean.
Therefore, if the Chinese Football Association is really determined to take the route of staying in the West, it should also set its sights on youth training, and find good seedlings from it to send to Europe to prepare for a longer-term future. It should not be unrealistic to hope that through the current international football team to stay in the foreign sports, to achieve the team's curve overtaking, for the next World Cup to accumulate capital.
