The road to godhood starting from Ligue 1

Chapter 106: Corsica's Unified Totem
Kante returns to Bournemouth.

Although relegation is certain this season and many players in the team will leave, Kante is definitely a little-known figure.

Gaio wasn't worried about anyone stealing the deal.

In fact, it was because of Bournemouth's demotion and the departure of many key players that Kante had the opportunity to officially take over.

It is also because of his performance in the next season of the Bollinger Band that Kanter appeared in the vision of many scouts.

So Gaio was not in a hurry.

Now he is more focused on the French Cup final, which is not only a double championship, but also a way for him to improve himself.

After defeating Chateauroux, Gaio earned 30 victory points.

He knew that this already included the championship bonus. Otherwise, a French Ligue 2 team like Chateauroux would at most get 3 points, just like Tours and other teams before.

In the French Cup final, they faced Ligue 1 team Lyon, with the bonus of winning the double championship.

Gaio was looking forward to it.

Of course, the prerequisite is to win.

This is also the expectation of everyone in Bastia.

Gaio's huge graffiti on the current Terra-Vecchia center building in Bastia has really become a landmark building in Bastia, just as Modosso said.

Many fans from other parts of Corsica come here to check in.

After all, the "NB" on this graffiti not only represents Bastia, but also the entire island of Corsica.

Gaio today.

That's a bit of the meaning.

He not only belongs to Bastia, but also to Corsica!
Gaio represents Corsica, conquering the French mainland and the European continent!

Therefore, even the fans of Ajaccio, Bastia's sworn rival, said, "Gio is good."

Although Ajaccio is now playing in Ligue 1, its hard power is not as convincing as Bastia.

There has never been a French Cup champion in the team's history.

The team has won three championships in its history: one French league championship and two French Ligue 2 championships.

Only one team from Corsica has ever won the Coupe de France.

That's Bastia.

Now, Bastia is going to make an attack on Corsica's second French Cup title!
This is no longer just a Bastia thing.

This is also the case in Corsican cities such as Ajaccio and Bonifanio.

If the people of Bastia recognized the great Bonaparte—who was from Ajaccio—why not the people of Ajaccio recognize the gifted Gaio?

"You may become the representative of friendship between Bastia and Ajaccio, haha." Vincent said to Gaio while reading the report in the newspaper while having breakfast.

Gaio glanced at it and nodded, "Then I'd still prefer a bit of a sworn enemy atmosphere, otherwise it would seem like the fans would have less fun."

"Hahaha!"

Rotten laughed at Gaio's response, "You understand the culture of our mortal enemy."

The culture of mortal rivalry between football teams, apart from those mortal rivalries that have truly persisted due to various conflicts of interest and opposing positions in history.

Some of the sworn rival teams are actually just a story told by the top management of both teams in order to "sell" the game.

Teammates were talking about the upcoming French Cup, the media coverage, and the fans' reactions.

Gaio, however, was looking at the last sentence on the Facebook chat page on his phone, feeling a little confused.

"Are you interested in visiting Ciudad Real Madrid in June?"

The other party's note is Zinedine Zidane.

The meaning is self-evident. The summer transfer window has not yet started, but it has already begun.

Gaio thought about it and replied with a "Of course" followed by an expression of gratitude.

Wait until training time.

Gaio shook off all other distracting thoughts and looked at his attributes.

【Height: 184cm Weight: 68kg
盘带（+1）：84（89）；传球：80（85）

Shots: 79 (88); Headers: 44 (63)

速度（+1）：72（76）；力量：69（70）弹跳：60（72）；体能（+1）：79（82）

Defense: 20 (40); Steals: 15 (33)

Flexibility: 68 (70); Ball feel: 90 (95)]

Most of the attributes have been improved compared to before.

Gaio looked at the increasing speeds, such as dribbling, shooting, and passing.

He actually didn't do any special extra training.

But it has increased.

This made Gaio realize that training alone was not enough to increase attributes, and a large number of competitions were needed to practice.

It is difficult to raise attributes to the upper limit through pure training.

Must practice!

Gaio thought of some very talented young players in China in his previous life. They were very successful in the youth team, but when they reached the adult team, they would start to sit on the bench because of problems in integrating into the team in the early stages.

All the spiritual energy is gone.

Not to mention starting training camp at every turn.

A large part of Chinese players lack high-quality games, and simple training cannot improve their ceiling.

Gaio may not be sure about other countries, but now he has a deep understanding of French football.

The top five leagues in France are unified across the country.

也就是法甲(L1)、法乙(L2)、全国联赛(N1)、全国联赛乙组(N2)和全国联赛丙组(N3)。

After that comes the regional league. Some regions have two levels (R1/R2), while some have three levels (R1~R3).

Below the regional league is the provincial league, with varying levels (D1 to Dn).

China also has such a classification, but the level is too low.

There are only three leagues in the country: Chinese Super League, China League One, China League Two and China League Three. In fact, up to China League Three, they are basically semi-professional, semi-amateur leagues.

There are also regional leagues under the China League One.

However, due to the differences in development levels among regions in China, most regions have performed mediocrely.

According to Gaio's original understanding, Qingdao was the best.

The Qingdao City League has three levels: City Super League, City First League and City Second League. This is also a project specially developed by the AFC in China.

The level of the City Super League is very high, and many of the players are retired professional players.

The top few are considered to be at the championship level.

But only Qingdao has done so well, with standard 11-a-side football fields everywhere.

Public participation is very high.

But this is still far from the French football system.

Gaio shook his head, the road ahead is long and steep.

Putting aside these distracting thoughts about his past life, Gaio continued to devote himself to training.

Getting ready for the match against Lyon!

Lyon actually played one game against Bastia this season. It was not an official match, but a friendly match between them after returning from the Christmas break in January.

At that time, Gaio had not yet returned to the first team and was even in the process of processing after being imprisoned.

In that game, Lyon beat Bastia 2-0 away.

There was almost no ability to fight back against Lyon.

But Bastia is different now.

Not to mention the defensive end, at least on the offensive end, he is an additional variable.

There are two opinions on the outcome.

Just when Bastia was preparing for the game seriously, a piece of news from L'Equipe disturbed Bastia's heart.
