Football geography丨The FM rising star born in the Arctic Circle is being tortured by reality

There are also super newcomers in the Northland, but the real world is not archived and read. 

After more than four months, Andrés Scherdrup, born on June 1, 2004, finally found the feeling to score.

On March 22, in the UEFA Under-19 qualifiers, he scored a goal in Norway's 4–0 victory over Romania, helping Nordic win in a big victory. This feeling has been missing for a long time, and even if it is not a top game in the limelight, the importance of this goal is self-evident. After all, since the move from North Zealand to Benfica in January this year, the Norwegian youngster has lost the ability to export, and it is difficult to play in the first team matches, and although the second level of the Portuguese Liga, although it has appeared, it is still difficult to make a difference. His 10 goals in 17 games in the Danish Premier League in the first half of the season was a dream.

Two months ago, when Benfica won the valuable lottery ticket for 9 million euros, the official social media of the game "Football Manager" popped up, and they introduced to many fans who did not know the truth: this young man is one of the most popular and talented players in "Football Manager 2023". But now, no matter how round players are, Sheldrup's overseas career is being marked one question mark after another, and so far he has only made one last-minute stoppage-time substitute in the Champions League and one stoppage-time substitute in the Portuguese Premier League - the excitement in simulation games is just a carnival in the virtual world.

The city of the North

The birthplace of Scherdrup is Bodø, Norway, one of the northernmost cities in the world and the only city in the Arctic Circle with a four-season temperate climate. Bode has a well-developed fishing industry and a well-established port, where ship repair yards, breweries and seaplane bases are located. Every year from mid-April, the length of the day here is close to 16 hours, and until early June to early July, the polar day phenomenon makes there no night.

Bode is not a standard tourist city, and the many weather and climate of the Nordic region make up most of the labels here. However, being included in the list of "European City of Culture 2024" along with Tartu and Bad Ischel, Bode has its own unique features.

Norwegian Aviation Museum and Norrland Museum are both cultural landmarks in Bodø and should not be missed if you want to understand the history of the city and region. The Norrland Museum is made up of 18 smaller museums covering a wide variety of fields, and the Bode City Museum offers four permanent exhibitions that provide an in-depth summary of the city's human, commercial and historical origins.

After visiting the Bode Cathedral and the "Storm" cultural center, the cultural festivals and music festivals held by Bode every year are also worth a "visit here". The avant-garde and experimental music of the Nordic region is extremely regional and groundbreaking, and is unique in all places.

Of course, when it comes to the most well-known label of the city of Bode in recent years, the Bodø Shining Club, founded in 1916, is well deserved. Since 2019, the team has won twice in the Norwegian Premier League and finished runners-up twice.

In the 2021-22 season, Bodø shined in the Europa League by eliminating teams such as Celtic and Alkmaar to reach the quarter-finals, setting the best record in the team's history in Europe. In this season's competitive Champions League qualifying round, Bodø shined with three consecutive opponents, just one step away from the main stage of the Champions League. However, in the final clash with Dinamo Zagreb, Bodø shone after losing the second leg in extra time and missing out on a ticket to the Champions League.

Nova is blocked

Sheldrupp's youth career has been associated with Bodø shine, and he also tried out Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Juventus during his youth training, although his reputation and influence are not as good as the glorious Odegaard many years ago, but the attention of many big clubs still confirms his talent. But in 2020, Sheldlop decided to switch to Northern Zealand, which has been booming in talent in recent years, hoping to embark on a more stable development path.

On 12 March 2021, at the age of 16 years, 9 months and 8 days, he set the record for the youngest league goal in North Zealand's history. Just nine days later, the Norwegian genius continued to shine again, sending North Zealand to the title play-offs with a crucial score.

Unlike many swaggering young talents, Sheldleep, who grew up in Bode, is low-key and restrained, and he has no intention of showing himself too much on and off the pitch. Fleming Peterson, technical director who used to work with Sheldrup in North Zealand, said: "Sheldlop has a good relationship with his team-mates, he is quiet and very disciplined. Although Benfica had a poor start, the Norwegian still had plenty of time to adjust and get through the adaptation period. In Peterson's opinion, joining Benfica is a very wise choice for the former, he can make mistakes, learn from experience, and then transform into growth.

Recalling the intersection of North Zealand and Sheldrup, Peterson said: "We thought at the beginning that this child would need 12 months to adapt" and that the promotion from youth team to first team should not be rushed.

The patience of the club's uniform team proved to be effective, and Sheldrup passed the adaptation period half a year ahead of schedule and soon showed his talent in the first team of North Zealand. I don't know if this time, the Norwegian young player can get the same patience and training in Benfica, the danger at this moment is already a hurdle that must be crossed. Cashing in on talent is never as easy as in games.
