Jakpo's mother is a distant relative of Emma's mother's family. After his father was imprisoned, he lived with his grandfather until his grandfather passed away a few days ago. His mother took him to live in Duarte Manor.

Jakpo enthusiastically told everyone about his third brother's encouragement to him....This made the people present have a higher opinion of Zhang San, and they looked at him more gently.

A person who encourages players from the opposing club must have no problem with his character.

After dinner, Emma's mother Helena took Zhang San to sit on the sofa and talk, smiling elegantly:"Jacopo's mother asked me to thank you, Jacopo is very important to him.……"

As they were chatting, the subject suddenly changed:"Have you settled the naturalization issue?"

"The deal is basically done, everything is on track, Mr. Mendes will meet with me in the evening with relevant personnel."Zhang San thought carefully about his words and responded

"The men in our family are all football fans...What you athletes need most is results. It will take you several years to become successful....Emma is not young anymore���If you and your teammates can achieve good results for Portugal, your relationship with Emma will be over....Haha, what do you think?"

What do you think?" Zhang San was overjoyed

:"All up to you!"

Then Mrs. Helena arranged the reception room and let Zhang San meet there in the evening. This was a preliminary recognition of Zhang San, using the background to support him....

In the evening, Mendes, together with Portuguese Football Association President Fernando Gomes, head coach Santos, and liaison officer Reguf, appeared in the manor hall.

This scene shocked the third brother!

Let’s not talk about Chairman Gomes for now, the arrival of old coach Santos is already a face-saving thing for him!

Santos has been very successful in the Greek league in the past, and was named the best coach of the Greek Super League for 10 years from 2000 to 2010!

He led the Greek team to the quarterfinals of the European Cup and the World Cup finals for the first time in history. After the 14th World Cup, he chose to return to his country to lead the national team.

As for Chairman Gomes, it is very likely that because this is Duarte Manor, everything is self-evident, and Gomes must show up.

Zhang San shook hands with everyone, and after some introductions, the guests took their seats.

"Zhang, I watched all your games. I can only describe your performance as indescribable. Our coaching staff members are full of praise!"Chairman Gomez praised directly

"Thank you for the compliment!" Zhang San smiled broadly at the compliment from such a distinguished person.

"Zhang! We have held meetings and made decisions on your issue...."Reguf said,"You know the result!"

Zhang San nodded.

At this time, the old coach Santos said in a deep voice:"We have approved your request. If you have any other ideas, you can also put them forward!"

There was nothing to think about. Zhang San couldn't wait to participate in the competition. He nodded to Mendes, and the latter immediately understood.

"Since there is no problem, let's proceed to the key step!" Mendes said in the middle

"Zhang! The Portuguese national team welcomes you! Portugal welcomes you!"President Santos shook hands with Zhang San cordially, and everyone took a group photo in the auditorium.

After the ceremony, Mendes found Zhang San.

"Zhang, your naturalization will be officially announced in the next two days, so you should be ready. Also, when you report to the national team, you must meet up with Cristiano before leaving together!"

Zhang San was a little confused after hearing this, but he still agreed to Mendes' proposal.

That night, Zhang San stayed at Emma's house, and the next day they hurried to Madrid.

【Official announcement! Zhang San officially joins the Portuguese national team! He will compete in the 15th European Football Championship in 2016 under the leadership of Santos!】

【Portuguese President Gomes said that naturalizing Zhang San is a major decision in the history of Portuguese football!】

【A talented goalkeeper who came into his own late in life - the new national team player Zhang San!】...

Ronaldo immediately posted a photo of the two of them on social media and wrote: Welcome my brother Zhang San to make history with us!

Of course, some people hold different opinions, such as Portugal's national goalkeeper Patricio and Anthony Lopez...

Domestically, most fans also sent their blessings to Zhang San, and everyone is looking forward to next year's European Cup!

As soon as he got off the plane, Ronaldo called:"Zhang, congratulations! We are going to fight together!"

"Thank you, Cristiano, I look forward to making history with you! I will visit you someday!"

When the Portuguese Football Association announced that Zhang San joined the Portuguese national team, the European Cup host France team also had important personnel changes.

The French Football Association announced that Benzema would be expelled from the national team...

After returning home, Zhang San told his grandmother about his Portuguese citizenship and meeting Emma's mother.

Grandma Zhang kindly said that everything was up to Zhang San to choose, and then took out a bracelet from her bosom and gave it to Emma.

"My dear daughter, this is what my mother-in-law passed on to me. I will give it to you in the future! San'er has been carefree since he was a child. He needs someone to take care of him. You have worked hard!"

Zhang San's eyes were moistened instantly. Just when he was about to translate for Emma, Emma responded to Grandma Zhang in Mandarin!

"Don't worry, grandma, I will take care of him! I will also take care of you!"Emma solemnly took the jade bracelet and put it on her wrist, then sat down next to Grandma Zhang.

"Emma, when did you learn Mandarin?!"The third brother continued to be shocked...

When Emma and Zhang San were together, they started to learn Mandarin privately. After 11 months, they were finally able to communicate in daily life.

Seeing Emma and her grandmother sitting on the sofa in harmony and love, the third brother was very moved and relieved....

The next day, Zhang San came to the team to prepare for the game against Athletic Bilbao!

As his teammates arrived, they surrounded Zhang San.

"Zhang~Congratulations on joining the Portuguese national team!"

"Yeah, you’re quite good at hiding. If we hadn’t seen the news we wouldn’t have known about it!"

"I thought you were going to meet your parents! I didn't expect you to do something big!"Griezmann said to Zhang San with a smile

"Hey, thank you everyone, we may become rivals next year~" Zhang San said to everyone with a smile

"Who wants to be your opponent?! Are you annoyed by the fact that you scored too many goals?" Carrasco pretended to be shocked and scratched his head, causing everyone to laugh.

For half a season, everyone has seen Zhang San's strength. Even if they meet in the European Cup next year, there is no good way to break through the goal guarded by Zhang San. At that time, they can only hope for luck!

At this time, the head coach Simeone came over:"Guys! Our challenge is here!"
