In this way, Gao Zheng started his trial in Sassuolo.

Every morning, Guo Wei drove him to the training ground and then handled his own business in Sassuolo.

He didn't have to worry about it at noon, Gao Zheng had dinner in the restaurant at the Sassuolo training ground.

After lunch break, continue training in the afternoon.

After the afternoon training, Guo Wei waited for him outside the training ground and picked him up to his hotel in Modena to have dinner, sleep and rest.

The day ended like this.

Gao Zheng was focused and devoted himself to the trial training. He had not felt the training of this professional team for more than a year. Although the old man arranged for him more than half a month of special training before leaving, the old man taught children to play football after all, and the training intensity and methods were completely different from those of the professional team.

The long-lost feeling made Gao Zheng live. He was sure again that it was indeed more suitable for him.

Since he started to be involved in football training at the age of six, he has been dealing with football for thirteen years, training and competition. He can't do anything except playing football, but he is useless except football.

What else can you do if you don’t continue playing football?

Now he is not happy to let him go back to his life with the old man.

In fact, he never thought of giving up the path of professional football. If it weren't for the "death penalty" verdict given to him by the Milan Laboratory, even if he didn't play football in AC Milan, he would have found another team, and he wouldn't have returned to China at all.

But it was that judgment that always made him feel a skeptical voice in his heart, constantly asking him: Can I really continue to follow this path? Are I really okay?

He didn't know that even though he had been training in Sassuolo for several days, he could not give an answer.

The Milan Laboratory's verdict was like a bomb that I didn't know when it would explode. Under the influence of this bomb, his life and mentality all changed and became a mess.

Gao Zheng's performance in training was outstanding. Although the trial was not completed, Mandeli made up his mind to let the club keep Gao Zheng. Although his health is not very good now, his physical fitness and strength are still small, Mandeli believes that as long as Gao Zheng is given time, he will definitely practice back with his talent.

He reported the decision to the club's sports director Nerio Bonato.

When he knocked on Bonato's office, he unexpectedly found that club owner George O'Squenchie was sitting in Bonato's office.

"Uh... Hello, Mr. Chairman." Mandelli quickly greeted Sconzi.

"Paro, I'm so happy to see you." Squinzi stood up and stretched out his hand to Mandelli.

Mandelli was flattered and handed it on.

After the two of them held each other, Bonato asked Mandelli: "Is there anything wrong, Paro?"

"That's right. Recently, three players have tried in our team. One of them performed outstandingly. I want to sign him, so I come to you." Mandelli handed over the report related to Gao Zheng.

Bonato looked down at the report, while Squinzi asked Mandelli to care about the youth training situation: "How are the young men in the youth training camp?"

It is normal for the boss to care about youth training, because Sassuolo is a small team, and it mainly relies on the strength of youth training. What they buy is basically young players. In recent years, the club's highest annual investment is no more than 350,000 euros, and more funds are invested on young players, hoping that they will only create a number and become the pillars of the team.

Unlike Udinese, who also attaches importance to youth training, Sassuolo pays more attention to localization of Italy. The young players they recruit are basically Italian local players. Of course, there are reasons why Sassuolo has no money to support a global scouting team, but it is indeed true that their club culture attaches more importance to their own players.

"All are pretty good, sir."

"Where is that Berardi?"

"He was transferred to the reserve team, but mainly followed the training and the game was still back to U17."

Squinzi was not very satisfied with Mandelli's answer: "Why not let him play directly in the reserve team? His ability should have reached it?"

"Actually... uh, this is a combination of multiple factors..." Mandelli carefully used the words. He knew that Squinzi liked the young man Berardi very much, perhaps because this young man had a legendary story, the media liked it, fans liked it, and the boss also liked it.

In fact, Berardi had never received professional football training before he was fifteen years old. He was looking for his brother at the university in Modena and played a five-a-side game before he was recommended to come to Sasotho for trial. The result of the trial naturally amazed the whole audience, so he stayed in Sasotho and became a member of the echelon.

He has grown up amazingly and is now the most famous star of hope in Sasotto.

But Mandelli still believes that Berardi has not met the requirements of the reserve team competition. After all, his basic skills are still a bit bad, so of course it is not his fault. Who made him not start to receive real football training until he was fifteen? The basic skills cannot be made up for one or two years of training, and he needs time.

Sassuolo's boss Squinzi obviously wasn't so patient. He shook his head: "I think I can give this kid some chance in the reserve team. I don't ask him to play all the games, but I can't transfer him to train for a season but don't even have a chance to play once, right? I think if he performs well in training, then the reserve team's appearance can be a reward for him..."

As the club owner, Mandelli can only listen to anything he says. In this small club, Sconzi is a person who has a lot of words. Since he invested and purchased the club in 2004, he has brought freshmanship and hope to this unknown small club. They have upgraded from the second league to the first league, and now in the second league, the boss has been loved and welcomed by all Sassuolo fans. His reputation here is unmatched, and no one dares to object to his opinions.

At this moment, Bonato, who had been looking down at the report, suddenly let out a low voice, successfully helping Mandeli to clear the siege.

"Is that tall?" he asked with his head raised.

Mandelli nodded quickly: "It's that tall."

But Skoonzi was confused: "What's the height?"

"Gao Zheng, once trained in AC Milan youth training camp and won the best player in U16..." Bonato explained.

"Is it him?"

What surprised both Mandelli and Bonato was that their boss knew who it was at once.

"The person you are planning to sign the contract is Gao Zheng?"

Mandelli nodded and quickly introduced him to the boss. He knew that the boss had a special liking for young players.

"Gao has been trying out for almost a week with us. He performed very well. He was indeed a talented player in AC Milan back then. But I don't know why he and AC Milan did not renew their contract... I think we can sign, it can be considered a miss, ha..."

Mandelli's laughter soon came to an abrupt end because he saw the boss's face very serious.

"Then do you know why AC Milan didn't renew his contract with him, Paro?"

Mandelli glanced at Bonato, who made a look and move "I don't know what's going on" at him.

"Uh, I don't know..."

"Because the Milan laboratory has a high physical data, he believes that his body can no longer be a professional player." Sconzi said very seriously.
