Even the staff of Real Madrid couldn't figure out what the meaning of Chu Zhongtian's remaining time in Real Madrid was.

Chu Zhongtian himself knew very well that his last half of his season in Real Madrid was very meaningful.

He wants to prove his strength with the most perfect performance and tell everyone how professional he is. Even if he is destined to be unable to play for Real Madrid next season, he will stand in his last position.

He won't just be scattered just because he is no longer at Real Madrid next season, and he can get a high salary when sitting on the bench.

The days of resuming training in the gym every day are boring, but Chu Zhongtian was not tired. To be honest, this was the first time he had such an experience - he missed the game due to injury during the league for more than two months, nearly three months.

During these three months, he could only watch his teammates perform on the court.

During this period, Chu Zhongtian could feel that the number of media reporters interviewed him was significantly reduced. In the past, as the most important member of the Real Madrid formation, he would receive at least five media interviews after each training.

Now, except for the Chinese media that are still paying attention to him, other media are no longer concerned about his recovery. Since he announced that he will no longer renew his contract with Real Madrid, he seems to have become an invisible person in this team, and the media have turned a blind eye to him.

Chu Zhongtian didn't care about this, he continued his recovery training. He had a very good mentality and talked and laughed when he met the staff every day.

Since he decided on his future goals, Chu Zhongtian has been able to see everything.

After more than a month of recovery, Chu Zhongtian obtained the permission of the team doctor to "permit ball training".

This is a very critical progress and a milestone in Chu Zhongtian's recovery after injury.

Being able to do ball training means he will get out of this boring physical training, and it also means he is closer to returning to the court.

While Chu Zhongtian was working hard to return to the court as soon as possible, there was also a discussion in Hiddink's office.

"... Chu's recovery speed is faster than we expected... I think he may be able to return to the court before the winter break, and before that we expect it to be after the winter break." Flemish, the team's chief team doctor, told head coach Hiddink that this is his job and regularly report to the head coach the recovery of the injured player.

Hiddink is very troubled now. What he is most afraid of is that Chu Zhongtian's injury has recovered soon. Ozil has been portrayed as a new team core by him. Considering that Chu Zhongtian will not be in the team after half a season, he will not be able to let Chu Zhongtian return to this core again. So what should I do if Chu Zhongtian recovers? Let him be a substitute? But in this case... it's a waste, a substitute player with an annual salary of 8.5 million euros... "But there is no place for him in the team now..." Hiddink's assistant coach Ralph frowned. He also knew the current situation of the team.

"Only let him be the substitute. Ozil is in very good shape now..."

"But it may not be that Ozil's physical fitness has always been poor. As the league progresses, the number of games in the second half of the season increases. It is hard to say whether his good form can last until the end of the season. I think no matter what, Chu's return is a good thing. He can enhance the team's strength and is beneficial to our Champions League journey..." Another coach disagrees.

“It can be considered as a member of the rotation lineup.”

"I think Chu's playing time should be reduced. First of all, Ozil has become the new core, and secondly, his knees and ankles have always had hidden dangers... No one knows when he will be injured, so be careful with him."

Everyone was very enthusiastic about the discussion, Hiddink didn't say a word, just listened.

But in the end he had to make a decision.

Everyone finished discussing and looked at him.

He coughed and said, "Well... Chu will leave the team next season, so the team's future is Ozil's..."

As soon as he said this, everyone understood that this was a conclusion to the discussion.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian didn't know that his fate in Real Madrid in the second half of the season was decided like this, but even if he knew, he didn't care.

On December 1st, he spent his 34th birthday with his family at home. There was no celebration party, nor did he notify other good friends. It was just a simple birthday dinner, ordered a cake, and his mother personally cooked a few Sichuan dishes that Chu Zhongtian loved, and his father opened a bottle of red wine. He had a simple birthday with his parents, Emily and his young daughter.

When blowing the candle, Emily asked Chu Zhongtian to make a wish. After blowing it, Emily asked Chu Zhongtian what wish he made.

"It won't work if you say it, ha!" Chu Zhongtian refused to disclose.

In fact, what he promised was that he and his family could be together healthily and happily.

"Son, you are thirty-four years old unknowingly. You were ten years old when I was thirty-four. Now when you were thirty-four, your daughter is only less than a hundred days old." Chu Zuosheng raised his glass to toast Chu Zhongtian.

After his father said this, Chu Zhongtian felt that this was the case. He was thirty-four years old without realizing it. He felt that he was 27 or 28 years old, as if he was still yesterday.

Usually he doesn't pay much attention to the changes in himself and the people around him, but today he looks up and sees that his parents are obviously much older than before. His father is already sixty and his mother is fifty-seven, and their health is not as good as before. Now his father has retreated from the management of Greater China Catering Culture Co., Ltd. and is resting at home, helping his mother take care of Ai Ai. At other times, all kinds of flowers are living the same life as any ordinary Chinese elderly person.

I am thirty-four years old and I am old, let alone my parents.

He was very glad that he brought his parents to him.

Chinese people value filial piety, but fortunately they are not at the point of "a son who wants to support but a relative who is not waiting for him."

Chu Zhongtian turned his head to look at his wife again. Emily was one year older than him. Even though she usually took good care of herself, there were obvious wrinkles on her nose and corners of her eyes. Her wife was also old... Although her face was still beautiful and the smile in her eyes was still as warm as before, she was still a thirty-five-year-old woman. How many thirty-five years does she have in her life?

He won a lot of things in the field of football - championships, money and fame. But he felt that none of these things brought him by football makes him feel happier. Because of football, he met Emily, because of football, they got together, and because of football, they entered the wedding hall together.

But if we want to say it more carefully, Wimbledon is the cause of all this.

So his current goal is to help Wimbledon Athletics realize his original dream.

Wimbledon Athletics is his matchmaker with Emily. As a thank you, he wants to help Wimbledon Athletics advance to the Premier League.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian’s birthday also made him re-enter the media page.

Chinese media have reported on this matter with the theme of "Happy Birthday of Chu Zhongtian". They have reviewed the glorious years of Chu Zhongtian's career over the years, every bit. But in the end they all fell back to the current theme - how many years does Chu Zhongtian have in his career at the age of 34? Which team can he go to to continue his career after leaving Real Madrid? Is he still as popular as before?

Some media only mentioned Chu Zhongtian’s birthday, and then began to analyze Chu Zhongtian’s future in large quantities. The conclusion also included the possibility of not finding a new boss, but the possibility of retiring was announced... These reports under the banner of blessing finally made Chu Zhongtian’s fans feel very upset.

Spanish media also reported Chu Zhongtian's 34th birthday, but the article was very small, just mentioned it. Spanish media and Chinese media have similar views. Chu Zhongtian, who is 34, is indeed very difficult to find a job.

After a series of injuries, Irving had to make his own resume to promote himself and find a job. The Catalan media also urged me to imitate Irving and began to make a resume for Chu Zhongtian and promote him - it seemed that he was kind-hearted, but in fact he was using this method to satirize Chu Zhongtian's failure to find the down-and-out scene of the team playing football.

When Chu Zhongtian was playing football at Real Madrid, he brought many painful memories to Barcelona fans. The most classic one was that he defeated Barcelona in the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons and snatched the Champions League trophy that originally belonged to Barcelona. Every time he went to the Camp Nou, he would boo, and he himself deliberately angered Barcelona fans and did many things that Barcelona fans disliked during the game. For example, after deliberately invading Barcelona players, he did not reach out to pull them up to show friendship, such as making very wild and provocative celebrations after scoring the goal... In short, seeing that Chu Zhongtian is no longer interested and cannot find his next home for a long time, Barcelona fans are very happy, and the Catalan media are also very happy.

Chu Zhongtian turned a deaf ear to the Catalan media's sarcasm. They were not the final decision for finding the next company in the United States. He knew it in his heart, so there was no need to waste his saliva with the other party.

※※※Just entering December, he celebrated his 34th birthday, and at the same time he also received a "birthday gift" - he received permission to practice with the whole team, so he was only one step away from playing.

The teammates were very happy that Chu Zhongtian could come back, although he would no longer play for the team next season. But it was quite normal. He was thirty-four years old, and this age would have been retired long ago on other players. Zidane retired at the age of thirty-four.

Chu Zhongtian also sensed the subtle changes in the locker room.

He is no longer the center of the locker room, and young people like Ozil and Shahin, as well as Neymar, have become the most active figures.

It was time to change dynasties. However, Chu Zhongtian was still a little upset when he changed dynasties in front of him.

As the core of the team's previous eight years, he felt it was necessary to defend his dignity.

Of course, this kind of defense is not achieved by forming cliques in the locker room and excluding others, but by one's own performance on the court.

He trains harder to prepare to return to the court at any time.

※※※ Originally, Chu Zhongtian's physical condition could allow him to return to the court before the winter break, but Hiddink said he should be cautious, so Chu Zhongtian's comeback date was postponed to the winter break.

This reason is flawless - Chu Zhongtian is already 34 years old, and his body has been inspected by the hospital, and there are hidden dangers. It is understandable that Hiddink is cautious.

So I didn't think that Hiddink's attitude towards Chu Zhongtian had changed.

Chu Zhongtian did not express any dissatisfaction. He was professionally waiting for his own opportunity, just like Beckham at the time.

As soon as the winter break came, Chu Zhongtian left Madrid. He and James Merry flew to England in a low-key manner, and no media knew about this.

At the Wimbledon Athletic Club, he met Russell and the club's chairman Samuelson.

"Until this moment, I still feel like I'm dreaming, Chu." Samuelson said to Chu Zhongtian with a smile on his face. "I can't believe you will return here again, and as a player!"

"This is my home, I'm going to come back."

Since it was a very secret signing ceremony, there were no reporters interviews on the spot, and fans were not arranged to welcome Chu Zhongtian in the stadium stands.

The group completed the signing ceremony directly in the club's locker room.

Chu Zhongtian swept the contract quickly and picked up a pen to sign his Chinese name on it.

Samuelson was a little excited, and it was a historic moment for Wimbledon Athletic Club.

When Chu Zhongtian wrote his name on the contract, the contract will officially take effect on July 1 next year. By then, in the next four years, Chu Zhongtian will belong to Wimbledon Athletics.

The greatest player in the history of Wimbledon Athletic Club is finally coming back!

※※※In order to avoid paparazzi discovering, after signing a contract with Wimbledon, Chu Zhongtian immediately flew back to Spain.

He is still not idle this holiday. He is still training every day in his gym. He is already thirty-four years old and does not intend to bow down to the years. He has to play professional football for four years. How can he not exercise well?

As the year approaches, the media is paying attention to Chu Zhongtian's next stop again. Because according to the rules, on January 1 next year, Chu Zhongtian's contract with Real Madrid will have half a year left, and he can freely contact other clubs and sign a contract with them. Real Madrid can't stop this matter at all.

Basically, as long as Chu Zhongtian’s agent is not a waste, you can also see where Chu Zhongtian’s final choice is.

Chu Zhongtian answered seven calls within one day, wanting him to talk about which teams are interested in him, or to prove whether the news of a certain team is interested in him is true or false.

Chu Zhongtian also felt that it was almost time to announce his choice.

He did not answer the reporter, he just wrote the same Weibo post on Twitter and Sina.

“On January 2, I will announce where my next stop is.”

As soon as this thin line came out, it caused a sensation. Many people thought that Chu Zhongtian had no team dared to ask for it now, so Chu Zhongtian and Meili had been silent about Chu Zhongtian's whereabouts for the past few months. It was not that they wanted to keep the secret, but that they didn't know where to go at all... Now that Chu Zhongtian said this, it seemed that they had already determined where to go.

In this case, where is the first stop in Chu Zhongtian?

Sina Weibo also launched an event, which is to leave a message on Weibo to guess which team Chu Zhongtian will play next season. Many fans of the team hope that Chu Zhongtian will go to the team they support, but it is obvious that this is wishful thinking. There are even Barcelona fans who speculate that Chu Zhongtian will transfer freely to Barcelona... This is too nonsensical.

After announcing his plans on Weibo and Twitter, Chu Zhongtian asked Mathilde to help him contact the media. He wanted to hold a press conference on January 2 to announce his whereabouts.

Of course, before that, he had to communicate with Real Madrid Club first.

So he opened the mobile phone of club chairman Florentino.

"Hi, Chu. I've been waiting for your call." Florentino was not surprised that Chu Zhongtian called him.

"Is it because of where I'm going?"

"Ha, yes. I think you can't find the next team. But you and the agent did a very good job of keeping secrets." After all, they are the chairman of a wealthy club, and they can't be as brainless as those media reporters. He doesn't believe that Chu Zhongtian is really no one wants it.

"I called to inform you about this matter, Mr. Chairman. I have decided where to go." Since Florentino is mentally prepared, this matter is much easier to handle. Chu Zhongtian did not go around the corner and directly told his purpose straight to the point.
