Vol 2 Chapter 5: Dilemma of Recruitment

On October 8, Tubingen youths played against the Karlsruhr second team. The game was held at the Tubingen Sports Center. There were probably less than a thousand fans who watched the game, and the game ended with a 3: 0 victory at Tubingen. On October 15, Tubingen youth played Neckarsum away, the game ended at 3: 2. On October 21, the youth of Tubingen challenged Germania F. The game also ended at 3: 2.
Four consecutive victories brought 12 points to the youth of Tubingen, rushing to the tenth place on the leaderboard with 15 total points, and the first name Rutlingen and Germania co-located 20 points. But it is worth mentioning that the Hoffenheim team ranked 19th with 19 points, ranking behind SV Spielberg's 19 points. This year's Baden-Württemberg State League competition is very fierce. The top 10 scores are all within one point. The rankings may change greatly after one round of competition.
The team's good performance stimulated the ball market and made the club's financial statements look a lot better. But Wang Ai was worried. Because from the fourth game against Germania F, it can be seen that the strategic deception of Tubingen youth around themselves has been exposed. Recently, only Tubingen youths have won the streak. Opponents will definitely get their team's game data from the State Football Association. Wang Ai's nine assists in four games have now reached the top of the assist list.
But no one on the team except himself. Boateng is diligent and efficient in interception, but he can't help him. It can be imagined that in the future, as the Tubingen youth continue to improve on the leaderboard, the siege of opponents against this point will continue to strengthen.
It's too stressful and no one is available.
From late October, Wang Ai, accompanied by Leoni, began to prepare for the team's recruitment. Different from professional leagues, it is relatively easy to recruit in amateur leagues, not to say that it must be done during the winter break or after the season. Since many amateur teams sign short-term contracts with players, compensation is very small.
There is a two-tier league system in Tubingen. It is called a community league. There are 36 teams in total. Otherwise, how can Tubingen, a small town with a population of 80,000, have ten stadiums? The Tubingen Administrative Region is one of Germany's 21 administrative regions. All cities in the administrative region, including the capital of Tubingen, have a league called the League of Nations. Last year the Tubingen team rose from the top spot in the United League to the Baden-Württemberg Interstate League.
After a brief inspection of the city's teams, Wang Ai was disheartened and left. Also, if there are good players in the city's team, Wang Ai can't wait to select them, and the old Kugel has picked back and forth over the past three years without knowing how many rounds. It seems that the community league is no longer counted on and can only be selected from the league league.
Wang Aima kept running around in the Tubingen administrative area, searching a large circle, and also optimistic about several players, but it was not much stronger than the existing players in individual positions of the Tubingen team, and he was still an amateur. Even the level of the interstate leagues is barely.
Although now is the time when German football chariots are getting old and shaky, it is also the eve of the reconstruction of German football, but the developed football league system and the rigorous personality of Germans make German players rarely missed genius. Just look at the resumes of members of the previous German team list, it is clear that the strong team youth training system comes from. Scouts all over the society can observe the performance of a youth who plays football round after round. As long as there are highlights, they are good seedlings. They must have the opportunity to be attracted to the youth training system of strong teams for rigorous training, and gradually in the The internal system of the club has risen.
The 500,000 euros left by Wang Bin for the German company of Aino are actually "venture funds", which is not necessary. Wang Ai does not want to keep asking for money at home. And these 500,000 euros are basically there, and it is obviously impossible to add a large investment to acquire players. Besides, it is not feasible to compete with well-known clubs for financial resources.
The Tubingen team is now only qualified as a rookie fourth-league team, and it is obviously impossible to attract those promising future stars. For example, Schweinsteiger, now just 16 years old, is only in the youth team, but the club that team belongs to is "Bayern Munich"! Similarly, 17-year-old Ram is also in the Munich youth team and is the future star of the first team. 15-year-old Podolski is now in the Cologne youth team and is also the future main focus of the first team. Such players don't need to look at being in a low-level league, but the future is quite bright. It is impossible to come to an ill-qualified fourth-level league team. Even goalkeeper Neuer has now been spotted by Schalke 04, even if he is only 14 years old!
As for players in their 20s, the high level must be in the high-level leagues. For example, 24-year-old Barack is already the main force of Leverkusen. Either the potential is exhausted and there is no room for improvement.
At present, Wang Ai can only choose two types of players. One is a player who has become a marginal person in the high-level league due to age, injury, and other reasons, such as Feffer selected by Old Kugel, and the other is because of some kind of Youth players who are excluded from mainstream circles, such as discriminated ethnic minority players.
Throughout November, Wang Ai and Leoni traveled across southern Germany and signed two "uncles" players, one who played in the Bundesliga for one year and one who played in the Bundesliga for five years. Is older, one 36, one 37! As for young players, none were found.
One day at the end of November, the two came to Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia. The two, who were exhausted, were not talking much. Out of the station and headed straight for the stadium, there is a federation league in Essen. The two sides are the red and white Essen second team and Stirrum.
The game was as poor as the dozens of Confederate leagues I watched this month. Wang Ai saw half asleep on Leoni's shoulder. The pressure of the Tubingen youth team is getting more and more intense. Throughout November, the Tubingen youth still maintained the winning streak and raised their points to the fifth place on the list. Points, but opponents are becoming more targeted. Wang Ai's assist statistics have been shrinking, and the last two games have won with very reluctance.
A boring game was over, Wang Ai was awakened by Leoni, and unlike the elated audience around, Wang Ai didn't rush out, sitting in the audience and thinking, should we continue to look for players? Otherwise, I still just mix in the fourth league for two years, and wait for the body to grow up and try out for other teams. In the past two months, Leverkusen's scouts have found themselves three times and invited themselves to try out.
Otherwise, go to Leverkusen?
This idea has changed in Wang Ai's mind more than once. The prospect of going to Leverkusen looks promising, but it is difficult to say his own academic studies. Time cannot be guaranteed. Not to mention, more importantly, Professor Schwartz turned out to be Tubingen fans! As long as he is for Tubingen's affairs, no matter how much he asks for leave, the old Schwartz will smile and approve, but it would be difficult to say if he changed to Leverkusen.
Moreover, it is not possible to go to the first team to Leverkusen immediately, no matter how two or three years later.
The most important thing is that before you go abroad, you have already told Director Yuan Weimin that you have to participate in the World Junior Championships and have finished your doctorate.
Thinking of this, Wang Ai shook her head with a sigh and stood up to leave the scene.
At this time, the fans are gone. Run for nothing again! Wang Ai reluctantly looked around. The training field next to the main stadium was lit with a not too bright light. Under the light, a small player was working hard to practice the ball alone.
"what!"
