N'Golo Kante.
If he hadn't appeared, he would have become Vardy's teammate in Leicester City a few years later, and then as the absolute main force and guarantee of Leicester City, he and Vardy helped Leicester City win the Premier League championship in the 2015-2016 season, completing the "Leicester City Miracle" that shocked the world football that year.
What Li Shiguang remembers most about Kante.
It is his ubiquitous figure from the front line to the back line.
After Kante came to Leicester City and helped Leicester City win the Premier League championship, he was known by fans all over the world. At that time, there was a saying in the football world: "70% of the earth's area is covered by water, and the remaining 30% is covered by Kante."
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated.
But this is definitely the most vivid interpretation of the statement that Kante's running coverage on the court.
Kante is almost everywhere on the football field, whether it is the front court, midfield or back court, whether it is his own penalty area or the opponent's penalty area, he can be seen at any time. Sometimes, he was still in his own half to help the back line defend, but the next second, he had already rushed to the opponent's penalty area to assist in the attack.
In Li Shiguang's view, Kante's super attribute has even surpassed Makelele in his peak period!
In addition to being diligent on the court, he has the courage of one man guarding the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it.
Outside the court.
Kante's character is absolutely fine.
Low-key, kind, and respectful.
Whether in the game or in life, he will not have any conflicts with anyone.
This kind of player.
No head coach doesn't like it.
Li Shiguang is no exception.
So when he recalled Kante in his mind, Li Shiguang would be so excited.
But Allen and Simeone didn't know.
The two were completely confused by Li Shiguang.
Why did he go to Paris for no reason? Isn't Benzema in Lyon?
"Uh... Boss, why are you going to Paris? If I want to make an offer to Lyon, I can just send an email." Allen held the steering wheel and asked the doubts in his heart.
"I'm not going to make an offer to Lyon." Li Shiguang explained, "I'm going to find a club called Suresena, uh... it should be an amateur football club."
Now it was Simeone's turn to be confused.
Simeone turned around and looked at Li Shiguang: "Amateur club? Boss, why are we looking for an amateur club?"
"Of course there are treasures!" Li Shiguang began to describe the two people according to his memory of Kante, "Alan, when you go there, find a young man named N'Golo Kante. He should not be 20 years old now, about 19 years old, um... a black man."
"In terms of appearance, he should be a bald man, thin and small, not tall, about less than 1.7 meters."
"By the way, I don't know if amateur clubs will pay players. Logically, they should not, so he probably hasn't signed a contract. When you go there, ask Raiola if he is free. If he is, ask him to go with you, and then say hello to this fat guy. The guy is an honest man. If he agrees to let Raiola be his agent, tell this fat guy to stop playing tricks and be sincere..."
Li Shiguang spoke a long paragraph.
Although I don't know who this N'Golo Kante is.
But from Li Shiguang's tone and words, Simeone and Allen could tell that Li Shiguang liked him very much.
Allen never said much about Li Shiguang's arrangements. The boss said, and he just had to do it.
However, from the perspective of a coach, Simeone had some doubts about the Kante described by Li Shiguang.
"No... Boss, from what you said, you want to buy this Kante, but he is thin... less than 1.7 meters tall, and he is already 19 years old and still playing in an amateur club. What position does he play? In this case, are you sure he can gain a foothold here?"
"Huh?" Li Shiguang chuckled, "Diego, he plays in the midfield like you, to be precise, he plays as a defensive midfielder."
Hearing Kante playing as a defensive midfielder.
Simeone was really anxious now, shaking his head: "Boss, this doesn't make sense, he's almost 20 years old, even if he can still grow, I bet he can only grow to 1.7 meters tall at most! With this physical condition, he can only play amateur, but playing professionally, and playing professionally here, is impossible!"
"You know shit, aren't you only 1.8 meters tall? How can a 1.7 meter tall person not play as a defensive midfielder!?" Li Shiguang laughed and scolded, "Diego, don't bet, believe me, when Alan gets this kid"When you bring him back, you will know how terrifying he is."
"Terror?" Simeone felt that Li Shiguang's words were a bit exaggerated.
"Yes...terrifying, Makelele knows it, I tell you, this kid is simply the Makelele puls+ version, you will know it when the time comes! ”

The next afternoon, Paris.
Raiola, who had arrived in Paris in the morning, picked up Allen.
After the two met, they drove to a small town about nine kilometers away from the center of Paris. The training ground of the Suresnes Club mentioned by Li Shiguang is located here.
Raiola, who was driving, was chatting with Allen sitting in the passenger seat.
Raiola held the steering wheel in his hand, with a strange expression on his face, some expectation, and some worry.
Italian agents haven't found good goods in Leeds United's youth training camp for a while.
He was already lying in bed last night, ready to hug his wife to sleep.
As a result, he received a call from Allen.
Allen made it clear on the phone that Li Shiguang asked him to go to Paris and sign a player.
But Allen was not sure about this player. The description made Raiola's mind full of confusion.
Amateur player, 19 years old, less than 1.7 meters tall, playing as a defensive midfielder.
This kind of player is common in Europe, but in Leeds United, which has already reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, can a player with this resume and conditions stand out?
But Allen made it very clear.
This kid was not reported by the scout, but a player that Li Shiguang himself paid attention to.
In this regard, Li Shiguang has never failed!
Every player he discovered is ridiculously strong!
"Alan... After receiving your call last night, I mobilized all the connections in my circle of friends, but I didn't find out any news about N'Golo Kante that Mr. Li mentioned... To be honest, I really don't know how Mr. Li knew about this player who plays in an amateur club." Raiola couldn't help it after all and asked.
"Huh? "Alan chuckled and spoke with great confidence, "Mino, why do you care so much? I told you yesterday that this was not found from the list handed over by Ron, but the boss personally ordered me to bring this child back to Leeds."
"Think about it, when has the boss ever made a wrong decision? ? "
