Ickerson, who played in the Chinese Super League for many years, became a naturalized citizen and a Chinese national. He earned 400 million dollars in his Chinese Super League career. Now, Ickerson is 33 years old. As a billionaire, he still wants to play for the national soccer team, which is touching!
According to Soccer Daily, national soccer striker Ekson has basically decided to join Chengdu Chengdu. At his peak, Ickerson was the first striker in Asia. Now, naturalization is not taken seriously, but Eckerson still has a heart to serve his country.
During his playing days in Guangzhou, Ickxon helped the team win the AFC Championship twice. At the time, at his peak, he was not only the top scorer in the Chinese Super League, but also the top striker in the AFC Champions League.
It was because they saw the strength of Eickson that the national football team naturalized him. Unfortunately, after being naturalized as a Chinese, Aixon's form declined and he ultimately failed to help the national football team reach the World Cup in Qatar.
Of course, it is not the fault of the naturalized players that the national soccer team did not make it to the World Cup, but the overall layout of the national soccer team was wrong. Although Ackerson and other naturalized players made a lot of money, they did not realize their dream of participating in the World Cup.
Now, Ickerson is 33 years old, but he still has a heart to fight for China, aiming to be selected for the national soccer team and participate in the Asian Cup.
Although Ackerson is a naturalized player, he has a stronger desire to play for the National Football League than many homegrown internationals.
Also, compared to naturalized players like Fernando, Gaolat, Xiao Tao Tao, etc., it has been great to see that Eckerson really wants to play for China.
Now, let's see how well, if at all, Exxon himself fares in the 2023 CFL season.
