i want to be king

Chapter 18 Su Dong is a Genius!

"Ha, you kid can do it!"

When Su Dong took a shower and changed in the locker room, and came out with a luggage bag on his back, Jose Semedo rushed over rudely and grabbed his neck tightly, with a look that made me envious and jealous.

"Be quiet and score twice, you are not bad, kid."

Su Dong smiled from ear to ear, letting Semedo hold him, it was not uncomfortable anyway.

"It's not bad, it didn't embarrass me." Ronnie nodded his head pretentiously.

This time, Su Dong almost kicked this pretender to death.

Fortunately, Ronnie had already guessed that he had this intention, so he hid far away, not daring to approach him desperately.

At this time, the fans of the athletic club had basically left, and no one noticed the three of them.

They played around outside the court for a while, and then left arm in arm.

"Where to go next?" Jose Semedo asked.

Their youth team also has a game, but not today, and they asked for leave in the afternoon, and they will be in trouble if they go back.

"Eat." Su Dong said naturally, "Didn't you invite me to dinner?"

"When did I say I would treat you to dinner?" Jose Semedo asked inexplicably.

"Just before the game, didn't you shout, invite me to Indenton?"

After hearing this, Ronnie and Semedo looked at each other, and laughed in unison.

This guy didn't even know.

"Please, Sue, that's a place to have fun, not a place to eat." Ronnie shook his head.

"Isn't Romario Seafood Restaurant over there?"

"That's right," Semedo replied, "but the most famous seafood restaurant there is not, although there are indeed many restaurants founded by immigrants from Asia, Africa and the Americas, because most of them are apartments and hotels."

Su Dong still didn't respond.

Seeing him like this, Ronnie smiled helplessly and shook his head, urging Semedo, "Tell him, tell him quickly."

Jose Semedo laughed so hard, "That's the most famous red light district in Lisbon. Do you understand what a red light district is?"

Su Dong is not stupid, he doesn't understand the red light district.

After figuring it out, he immediately knew why Martello didn't tell him.

This embarrassment is a bit big!
It's so embarrassing!
"Dare to play me!" Su Dong flew towards Semedo, and the Cape Verdean boy was kicked in the ass before he could dodge in time.

Semedo screamed and ran away quickly, yelling for mercy.

In fact, whether it is a seafood restaurant or a red-light district, Semedo has no money to invite Sudong.

He can get a subsidy of about [-] euros from Sporting Lisbon every month, but most of the money has to be handed over to his parents to supplement the family, because their family is really poor and has many brothers and sisters.

Ronnie was even worse.

His subsidy is quite a lot, with a monthly guarantee of [-] euros, but the problem is that this money has never passed through his hands. The club is directly transferred to his mother, and his mother will give him [-] euros of pocket money every month.

So, he is actually not rich at all.

The three poor guys don't even need to talk about having a good time, even if they go to eat another seafood feast, they won't have enough money.

After some discussion, the result was...

……

"I've already said that Su is a good person."

On the sidelines of the indoor court in the Edward VII Park, Jose Semedo gnawed on the sandwiches that Sudong exchanged for the king value, pretending to go outside to buy, and praised Sudong vaguely in his mouth.

Ronnie, on the other hand, gnawed on the bread, drank the bull, and kept nodding in agreement.

Recently, he has been with Su Dong every day, and Su Dong is basically in charge of three meals a day.

The food is quite simple, they are all takeaways, but the taste is very good, and every meal can conjure up some tricks, which makes Ronnie never get tired of eating.

Such a delicious takeaway, why have I never heard of it before?

Ronnie always asked Su Dong which store he bought it from, but Su Dong told him not to ask so many questions every time.

"Come to me if you want to eat, why bother to buy it yourself?"

And every time, Su Dong sneaked out to buy by himself, not letting Ronnie follow him at all.

This made the Madeira boy very moved, but also a little ashamed, because it was embarrassing to ask Su Dong to treat him every time.

As the saying goes, cannibals have soft mouths and short hands.

Because he has been eating Su Dong all the time, whenever Ronnie has time, he will come over to practice with Su Dong. At the same time, he will do his best and try his best to help Su Dong improve.

"Frankly speaking, your speed of progress is really good enough." Ronnie gave Su Dong a rare compliment.

When he met Su Dong for the first time, he felt that Su Dong was just an amateur player, at best he was working hard, but he never thought that he could improve so rapidly.

Up to now, he feels that Su Dong already has the strength of the first-team main force in the Portuguese Sporting Club. Even in the youth training camp of Sporting Lisbon, it is estimated that the U16 will have no problem playing the main force, and even the upper age group can gain a foothold.

"That's because you teach well." Su Dong casually threw out a flattery.

Ronnie was not polite, and accepted Su Dong's praise frankly.

"There are also Mr. Pontes and Mr. Naley. I should really thank them for the opportunity." Su Dong is grateful to these two youth training experts who have never met before, and their many training methods have greatly helped him.

Not to mention some training items, Pontes' physical training is very practical for him.

There is no need to go to the gym, and it can be done in the dormitory. It is also relatively safe, and it is no problem to practice alone.

"Don't worry, I'll call them later." Ronnie patted Su Dong on the shoulder and smiled.

……

After eating and drinking, the three of them had nothing else to do.

In fact, whether it is a professional player or a youth training player, if you do not violate the rules, life is really boring.

Especially when it comes to the adult team, it is even more boring.

You can’t eat casually, you must pay attention to balanced nutrition, and often you have to control your own preferences and eat some foods that you dislike very much, not to mention tobacco and alcohol, and you can’t touch those with self-discipline.

Private life is also troublesome.

Not to mention anything else, even for a player like Jose Semedo, who is not top-notch in the youth team, there are a lot of women, fans and reporters flocking outside, but which one of them does not have a purpose?

Ronnie has been persuading Semedo because he knows this.

Semedo is not ignorant, but such a life is indeed quite attractive.

As a professional player, if you follow the rules completely, it is like an ascetic.

Instead of going back to the dormitory and facing each other, it is better to continue to practice in Edward VII Park.

Not only did Ronnie stay to practice with Su Dong, but Jose Semedo rarely took the initiative to stay.

Although Su Dong had just played a game and was very exhausted, under the influence of the bull, he walked from the home court to Edward VII Park and rested for a while, and his energy has basically recovered.

The three of them practiced in the park until after nine o'clock in the evening, and then reluctantly bid farewell and left.

……

Back at Don Jose's apartment, Ronnie took a shower first, and then called his family in Madeira Island.

He has to call his family members every day, especially recently, a lot of things have happened at home, he is very worried, he is concerned about the progress every day, for fear of accidental mistakes again.

When Semedo came in after taking a shower, he just heard Ronnie's end.

"Don't worry, Second Sister, I'll go to the mall to buy a game console and send it home later, it won't be boring."

After hanging up, Ronnie called Lionel Pontes again.

Because of Su Dong, the two have been in frequent phone contact recently.

As soon as the phone was connected, Ronnie talked about the afternoon game straight to the point.

"What? Score twice?" Pontes was taken aback on the phone.

Since it was only a Portuguese second game, let alone a live TV broadcast, it might not even be published in tomorrow's newspapers. It would be nice to have a score of all the Portuguese second games. Except for the respective fans, no one would care about this kind of game.

Therefore, Pontes had never heard of any movement before, so he lost his voice in surprise.

"Yes, it's really surprising." Ronnie laughed.

Pontes hummed, "It seems that the progress is really fast, and his talent is very good."

No one knew that Su Dong could improve his talent. Everyone thought that he should have good talent in the first place, but he was dragged down by the bad youth training before. Now that he has received formal youth training, although he is old, he can still improve very quickly.

"If it had been three or four years earlier, he would have definitely become a genius comparable to you and Ricardo." Pontes said regretfully.

Ricardo is Quaresma, and he is also a player brought out by Pontes.

Ronnie didn't mind, because Su Dong was his best friend, no matter how much Pontes praised Su Dong, he wouldn't mind.

But Quaresma is different, that is his opponent.

"Lionel, I was thinking, is it possible to recommend him to the club?" Ronnie asked with concern.

"Based on his current performance and the speed of improvement during this period of time, I think that Sporting Portugal will soon be unable to accommodate him, and he will definitely go to other higher-level leagues and teams by then."

As a friend, Ronnie very much hopes that Su Dong can come to Sporting Lisbon.

"It's hard, Ronnie." Pontes shook his head and sighed, "You know, we don't have much contact with Sporting de Portugal. More importantly, this team is a satellite club of Belerences. Over the past few years, most of the players that emerged from this team went directly to Belerences, and only one went to Benfica."

Ronnie was a little disappointed when he heard that, he knew that the satellite club had a contractual relationship.

He felt somewhat regretful, why wasn't Su Dong in the satellite club of Sporting Lisbon?
It would be much easier to come directly to Sporting Lisbon.

Now that I have gone to Sporting Portugal, it will be much more troublesome to come to Sporting Lisbon.

The best case scenario is that neither Belerences nor Benfica are interested in Sudong, and Sporting Lisbon will directly grab it.

But is it possible?
Players who can interest Sporting Lisbon, Belerences and Benfica?

Looking at it from another perspective, as long as Sporting Lisbon shows interest, Belerenzez and Benfica will fight anyway.

It's also part of professional football.
