Entering the national football team should be a dream thing for many players, not only to raise their value, get a high annual salary, but also delicious sea cucumbers to eat. Especially in the Chinese Super League, once the foreign aid is successfully naturalized, the annual salary almost doubles. However, today, Luo Guofu's successor refused to join the national football team and also refused to pay a high annual salary. This reminds fans of Lippi's words when he resigned: I don't want to grab money!
Today, according to reporter Li Xuan's report, Cangzhou Lion foreign aid Oscar refused the chinese Football Association's naturalization invitation. This is undoubtedly a big blow for the Chinese Football Association. Because before that, Oscar has been the key player of the FA's naturalization. He is only 23 years old this year, and if he is naturalized, he can just make up for the vacant position after Luo Guofu retired.
After the failure of the national football team to impact the 2022 World Cup, naturalized players such as Luo Guofu, Axon, and Alan will most likely gradually withdraw from the national team. After the withdrawal of this group of naturalized players, the national football team also needs to prepare for the 2026 World Cup. And excellent players are an indispensable condition for the national football team to impact the World Cup.
At present, the difficulties facing the Chinese Football Association are very great. On the one hand, among the local players, there are basically no outstanding players. Players like Wei Shihao already belong to the top in China. However, once the World Preliminary Tournament is staged, it is basically only one level with the Vietnamese team. If you want to dig up young players, time is not allowed, not to mention that our youth training is a mess, and the Football Association and clubs have not cultivated usable talents at all.
Under such circumstances, the Football Association can only continue to adhere to the naturalization line. But now the problem is that the FA looks up to people who don't want to be naturalized. After all, in this World Preliminary Tournament, Li Tie's use of naturalized players has caused many sequelae, and many people are also worried about not being able to appear after being naturalized. Willing to be naturalized, too old, simply for the money.
It can be said that the Chinese Football Association is really very big now. Although the number of places in the next World Cup has been expanded to 48, it is still unknown whether we will be able to advance to the round of 12 next time. In the past, it was a top 12 match to impact the World Cup, and I was afraid that the future would be a shock to the top 12.
