Recently, Cannavaro was interviewed by the domestic media and talked about the topic of Luo Guofu. Cannavaro revealed that he would not have signed Lowe Guofu if it were not for the club's request. And Cannavaro said that Luo Guofu has not qualified for several years, and if he does not lose weight, even the Central A team will not want him.
Although Luo Guofu once won the Golden Boot of the Chinese Super League with Shandong Taishan and later played for Hebei, with the increase of weight, Luo Guofu eventually fell to the Chinese First Division team. However, with the naturalization of Chinese football, Luo Guofu unexpectedly became a member of the Guangzhou team.
Cannavaro said that if it were not for the Guangzhou team to "raise soldiers for the country", he would not have signed Luo Guofu at all, "I directly told him that if it were not for the club to ask me to sign you, I would not have chosen you at all." The team did this to help the national team, so it had to sign him. ”
Cannavaro said that if he chooses, he will not choose Luo Guofu even if he coaches the Chinese First Division team.
Cannavaro then said that although Lo Guofu has scored goals now, he has not been a qualified player in recent years, "I talked about his weight from the beginning, and I made it clear to him that he needs to control his weight. Even though he has a few goals now, I would say that he has not been a qualified player in these years, because a qualified player will not be more than a dozen kilograms fatter than others. ”
In addition to Luo Guofu, Cannavaro said that including Jiang Guangtai also need to control weight, if you do not control weight, you can not become a good player, in coaching guangzhou team, he has repeatedly stressed this issue with Jiang Guangtai.
Of course, Cannavaro also believes that Luo Guofu is a player who knows that he can change his mistakes, "He is still very good, and he is very focused on the game, but sometimes he loses his goal, in addition to his normal schedule, he needs to control his diet." Luo Guofu also knew this and knew how to manage himself later. If he indulged himself as he did when he was younger, it wouldn't make sense. ”
