On December 14th, Beijing time, since leaving his homeland to return to Brazil, the naturalized player Aixon, on the social network platform to express his feelings, lamenting his nine years spent in our country is unparalleled, with a full sense of achievement to wave goodbye.
In those nine seasons (nine glorious seasons), Exxon not only collected numerous championships, but also left his mark on the national soccer scene. Looking back on the time I stepped onto this ground in late 2012, it has been such an incredible, incredible nine years.
I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who has given me warmth during this journey, be it the passionate fans or my teammates who have fought alongside me. During this time, I have grown as a player and as a person in general, contributing to our country's sports and reaping the recognition I deserve. Now, with accomplishments and gratitude, and a peaceful heart, I am ready to return to my family, spend time with my children, parents, loved ones and friends, and think deeply about the direction of my future.
In 2013, Iversen officially moved to Guangzhou Evergrande from Botafogo in Brazil and became a key player in the team's two AFC Champions League titles. He scored a total of three goals in the two AFC Champions League finals, and without Iverson, Guangzhou Evergrande's two AFC Champions League trophies might have been eclipsed.
As the "God of Ai", Aixon is not only the top scorer in the history of Guangzhou team, but also the top scorer in China's working soccer world. The records he has set in China's working football world all highlight his brilliant achievements in this land.
When opportunity knocks and the right moment meets the right person, Exxon accepted naturalization without hesitation and became a member of the national football team. Every soccer player has a dream to play in the World Cup. Ackerson and his naturalized teammates are no exception, and they hope to have the opportunity to play in the World Cup during their careers and realize their dreams.
Despite the doubts and malicious remarks about the naturalized players, the Football Association has stood firmly behind the players, believing that they are not here "for the money". Even if the naturalized players encountered problems with unpaid wages at their clubs, none of them said they were willing to give up the opportunity to play for their country.
Facing unpaid wages and choosing to leave the Chinese Super League to stay in competitive shape, Ickerson is doing something similar to Wu Lei, who is awaiting a call-up to the national soccer team.
