The 31-year-old has personally confirmed that he is applying to return to Brazilian nationality, and he has renewed his contract with Brazilian side Atlético Bahia to play with the team in the new season. At a press conference after the contract extension, Goulart confirmed that he was regaining his Brazilian citizenship. "I have to ask how things are going, I am optimistic about the prospects for the restoration of Brazilian nationality, which is handled by the relevant teams," Goulart said. ”
It is reasonable for Goulart to choose to return to Brazilian nationality, his renewed contract needs to be strengthened by Atletico Bahia to play in the Baja Liga, if Gaulart plays as a Chinese national, he will occupy a foreign aid spot, and change to Brazilian nationality to play as a local player, which will free up a foreign aid spot for Atletico Bahia to strengthen. From the point of view of a professional player, there was no problem with Goulart's choice.
But Gaulart chose to restore Brazilian nationality, which means that he will not play for the national football team in the future, you must know that in 2019, the national football team spent a lot of money in order to naturalize Gaulart, Guangzhou Evergrande provided a multi-year contract with an annual salary of 13 million euros, and also accompanied by more than 100 million yuan in signing fees and settlement fees, a total cost of more than 400 million.
But Goulart has never played for the national football team so far, and after changing to Chinese nationality, he was loaned to Brazil to play halfway, resulting in violating the rules and not being able to play for the national football team. Burning 400 million oceans but not in exchange for an appearance, the national football team's plan to naturalize Gaulart is undoubtedly a failure.
In addition, behind Goulart's active struggle to restore Brazilian nationality, other foreign aides naturalized by the Chinese Football Association will also be difficult to represent the national football team in the future, Luo Guofu, Axon and Alan are currently playing in Brazil, of which Luo Guofu is clear that he will retire in 2024, Axon and Alan have no plans to return to China, the remaining 3 naturalized, Xiao Taotao applied to restore his hometown, and did not play for the national football team, Li Ke and Hou Yongyong did not renew their contracts with Guoan, and their respective injuries were serious, In the future, there may be no ball to play, let alone play for the national football team.
The above total of 8 naturalized players, the total cost of more than 1 billion, but failed to bring a significant improvement to the performance of the national football team, the previous 40 and 12 matches, naturalized players were collectively suppressed, including Luo Guofu, Axon and Alan, was determined by Li Tie as insufficient physical fitness can not play a whole game, although the actual performance of these naturalized players is very good, there is no problem with physical fitness, they will also be disassembled and used by Li Tie, and arrange substitutes to appear or not give the field. Li Tie's operation made the national football team voluntarily give up competitiveness, and the final round of 12 ended dismally, in addition, the president of the football association, Chen Jiayuan, could not escape the blame for not doing his job during the implementation of the naturalization plan.
Now that the naturalized player base is falling apart, the Chinese Football Association has failed to maximize the value of naturalization. Do you think the route of naturalization will work? Are naturalized players more capable than domestic players?
