Wu Lei, the highly regarded star, controversy always seems to surround him, even more than his skills themselves!
In domestic soccer circles, many fans have questioned Wu Lei's achievements and even feel that his performance does not match his reputation and has even declined. However, some authorities within the soccer world, such as Chen Xuyuan, Xu Genbao and Li Tie, believe that Wu Lei's future is bright after he goes abroad for further studies.
Indeed, from the performance of the first and second rounds of the 40-team tournament, the judgment of Chen Xuyuan, Xu Genbao, Li Tie and others is not empty.
The first round of the Top 40, Wu Lei returned to the team to participate in the first round of the tournament, coinciding with his debut in Spain, the first appearance. However, regrettably, the national football team drew with the Philippines and lost to Syria, and the one who scored the most goals was not Wu Lei, but Yang Xu.
Wu Lei returned to the team again for the next round of the Top 40, but at this point he was not in a good position in Spain. Many Chinese players were skeptical about him scoring goals, but the national football team unexpectedly replaced Yang Xu and added several naturalized players, while Wu Lei surged forward, performing close to Yang Xu and approaching him in goals. (See whether Wu Lei can reach Yang Xu's level, not as a result of staying in the ocean, but with the help of someone high up)
Obviously, Wu Lei has made significant progress since staying in the ocean.
However, Wu Lei's performance in Spain has also been controversial, as he has gone from starter to substitute. Is this due to the Spanish coach's suppression of him? It is not known, because even when sitting on the bench, Wu Lei also had the opportunity to play, but his performance did not convince people that he has the ability to become a starter. (See Spaniards Chinese boss questioned! Wu Lei statement, the western media criticized the national football star: the decline is obvious)
Obviously, Wu Lei's road to stay in the ocean is full of challenges, unless the national football team gives more support to prove his progress.
But then again, only the evaluation of the Spanish media is authoritative as to whether or not Wu Lei's stay in the country has improved. However, Wu Lei wants to prove himself in Spain, perhaps it has become very difficult, because not being used means not being able to prove.
Fortunately, the attention of the Premier League has given Wu Lei hope that he will have a chance to prove himself as long as he can give it his all on the Premier League stage.
