After leaving the Guangzhou team, Gaulat returned to Brazil as soon as possible, and recently officially renounced his Chinese citizenship and became a Brazilian again. As the most anticipated strikers of the national football team, Chen Shuyuan and Xu Jiayin did not wait for Gaulat to play for the national football team, they witnessed his "betrayal", it can be said that the hundreds of millions of yuan of naturalization costs were wasted.
However, after returning to Brazil, Gaulat paid no attention to the doubts of Chinese fans. After joining Santos, Gaulat immediately sat in the main position, and on March 9, Beijing time, Gaulat represented the team in the Brazilian Cup. In the first half, Santos made mistakes in the back line, and opponent Fluminense scored first, and the score came to 0-1. In the second half, Santos launched a wild attack, but never won, until the 81st minute of the game, Santos finally ushered in the savior, and he is the former national football team captain Gaulat.
In a counter-attack, after receiving a direct ball from his teammate, Gaulat strode into the box and used his strong body to lean on the left and right defenders, and finally pushed his left foot into the far corner before the goalkeeper attacked, changing the score to 1-1, helping Santos drag the game into a penalty shootout. In the end, Gaulat hit a steady shot on the penalty spot, and Santos won 5-4 on the penalty to eliminate the opponent 6-5 on aggregate and advance to the next round with his head held high. As the biggest contributor to the team's reversal victory, Gaulat also could not hide his joy after the game, sliding on the lawn to celebrate, but it is rare to see Gaulat make such a passionate celebration in China.
It can be said that Gaulat quickly gained a foothold in the Bajia league after leaving the national football team and Guangzhou, and now he has 7 appearances, all starting, contributing 3 goals and 1 assist, which is enough to show that he is fully capable of standing in the top league. As a meritorious foreign aid of the Guangzhou team, I don't know how Xu Jiayin will feel when he sees Gaulat's outstanding performance, and I think that if he insisted on keeping him, I am afraid that the national football team would not have lost such a fierce general so early, if Gao Lat could play in the round of 12, now the national football team will not be out of the world preliminaries early, becoming a street rat that everyone shouts and fights.
At present, Gaulat's value is still 5 million euros, which is higher than the three people of Axon, Alain and Luo Guofu combined, which shows that his strength remains quite good. Gaulat is only 30 years old now, in the year of the fight, but unfortunately, after naturalization, due to the accounting crisis of Xu Jiayin, Gao Lat worried that he was owed wages and could not get wages, so he decisively left the Chinese Super League. Of course, from the current results, Gaulat's choice is correct, even if he continues to stay in the Guangzhou team, he can only receive an annual salary of 600,000 yuan now. However, for the national football team, Gaulat's departure is a big loss.
Or it can be said that the national football team did not qualify for the World Cup, a big reason is that Gaulat and Fernando, two naturalized players, did not play, otherwise Wu Lei would not have been supported. It is regrettable to the fans that Gaulat and Fernando, the two most powerful naturalized, are precisely the ones with the lowest sense of national honor, but it is the mediocre people such as Luo Guofu and Axon, who have always been courting Chen Shuyuan and the majority of fans with a diligent attitude, and now see Gaulat shine in the Bajia, and Axon, Luo Guofu, Alain and Fernando have no ball to play in Brazil, and they know who Chinese football needs most.
