Wu Lei
First, the starting point is different
In the early days, Wu Lei developed football because of his hobbies, and then came to Xu Genbao's football base to start formal training.

Sun Xingyu
Second, the rhythm and strength are different
People's Daily believes that Wu Lei's left and right foot skills are not very balanced, and a lot of adjustments need to be made when receiving the ball. And Son Heung-min can grasp the rhythm of the goal, and many times there will be unexpected effects.
Third, the difference in commercial value
Sun Xingyu is also far better than Wu Lei in terms of commercial value, and Sun Xingyu's wonderful performance in the international arena has won him more commercial opportunities, which can be said to be the full blossoming of career and business.

But as a Chinese fan, I still have to say for Wu Lei, why do everyone compare Wu Lei and Sun Xingyu, and not other players? Because Wu Lei is the best player in China! As the best player in China, Wu Lei gave up the high salary in China, chose to stay in the West, to contact better football, to learn more professional football, worthy of admiration! I hope that Wu Lei can drive more Chinese players out of their comfort zone and make Chinese football go to a higher level!
