Fernandez was observing Juan Carlos. At first glance, he was very satisfied. This kid's body was quite strong. His whole body was full of muscles, and his strength seemed to explode from these muscles at any time.
With this physique, he looked like a reassuring defender! This was the first impression and evaluation of Juan Carlos by the other assistant manager, Paller.
It was obvious that both of them were physique maniacs!
"Are you ready, kid?" Fernandez said.
"Hello, Mr. Coach. I'm ready. "Juan Carlos replied in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.
Fernandez was very satisfied. His physique was good, and his heart was strong. This was a good seedling!
They had heard Li Ang talk about this kid before, talking about the game between Getafe and Real Madrid. The two assistant managers also appreciated Juan Carlos's persistence to fight to the end. This showed that this was a player with reliable psychological quality! For a professional player, psychological quality was very important. If a player with such strong psychological quality also had a good physique and body, this was simply the best foundation for success.
Therefore, when the two assistant managers saw Carlos's strong physique, they had a good impression of him.

The tired Alice sat in the seat. She was a little excited and a little nervous as she watched her brother take the test.
They took the train to Gihon early in the morning. They did not have the money to buy a high-speed train, so they only bought tickets for the ordinary train. This had already used up all their savings.
After that, the siblings rushed from the train station. Alice was weak and sickly, so the younger brother carried her on his back for a long distance.
Fortunately, the two of them finally arrived at noon and were not late.
Although there was Li Ang's invitation, Alice did not dare to be careless. She knew that this was her brother's last chance to continue on the path of professional football. She valued it very much.
The girl observed from the side. The attitude shown by the club made her feel a lot more at ease. It could be seen that the two coaches in charge of the test had a good attitude towards Carlos.
Her gaze rested on Li Ang's body. This person's hands were in his trouser pockets. His deep eyes were focused on the field. It was very quiet, but no one would ignore this person. This person stood there. Even if he did not speak, he was still the center of attention.
Miss Alice -Angel Carlos felt her cheeks burning. The girl looked away from the person who made her heart beat faster and started to care about her brother's test.

The physical test was actually very simple. First, the height and weight of Juan and Carlos were measured. Then, they were asked to run separately.
The running test consisted of five sets of 100-meter sprints and five sets of 30-meter sprints.
Lastly, there was the 12-minute run. The 12-minute run was used to assess whether the tester's cardiopulmonary capacity could support their body weight. It required them to exercise within a certain range of heart rate after aerobic exercise. The 12-minute run could be said to be an important indicator to evaluate the training level and physical fitness of athletes in the physical fitness test.
As for today's test, because football players were not track and field athletes, the requirements of the test were not so detailed. It was mainly to understand Juan and Carlos's speed and endurance. After all, for a strong defender like Juan and Carlos, there was no problem with their physique. Then, speed and endurance were the key.
Alice looked at her brother, who was taking the test on the field. Her eyes were full of love.
She still had some confidence in her brother's physical fitness.
Although they lived in the slums and lived a poor life, Alice had never let her brother suffer in terms of food. In fact, Juan and Carlos's meals were very good. Beef, fish, eggs, and other nutritious things were always provided regularly. When Carlos was growing up, he had a big appetite. Therefore, it could be said that most of the money Alice earned from writing manuscripts went into Carlos's stomach. This was also the reason why she had no savings.
For a weak and sickly girl to be able to raise her younger brother like a calf, this was indeed quite a feat.

Li Ang was paying attention to Juan and Carlos's 12-minute run test. He always thought this test was very interesting, and it was also because of the influence of the domestic football world.
In the past, China's 12-minute run test, the famous left back of the national team, Li Hongjun, did not pass the 3,000-meter run test. The story of him crying on Schlapner's shoulder was "popular for a while."
The so-called 3,000-meter run standard was to run at least 3,000 meters in 12 minutes.
That was also the first time Li Ang heard the term "12-minute run."
Later, when he came to Europe to make a living, he understood that although the 12-minute run was very important, the Europeans were not like China's football, who actually used it as an assessment standard for players to take up a post.
"How is it?" Li Ang asked his assistant.
"Very good!" Parer said. He was very satisfied with Juan and Carlos's physical fitness test.
The five sets of 100-meter sprint times were 11.93 seconds, 11.98 seconds, 12.11 seconds, 12.19 seconds, and 12.23 seconds.
Compared with those strikers who were good at speed, there was a certain gap. However, don't forget that Carlos was just a defensive player, and a tall and strong one at that. This kind of speed was very good for a defender.
Moreover, it could be seen from this set of data that Juan and Carlos's speed did not decrease significantly. It must be known that these five sets of 100-meter sprints were continuous sprints with only half a minute of rest after each set was completed. Under such high-intensity sprints with almost no rest, the decrease in the data was very small. This kind of data could be said to be very good. Moreover, they knew that Carlos had walked more than ten kilometers to reach the Maleo training base. This meant that this data was not the best data for this child, and there was still room for improvement.
From this, it could be seen that although Juan and Carlos were not fast players, their physical strength was very good, and their stamina was very good.
In addition, Juan and Carlos's "12-minute run" data also shocked the coaching staff.
Juan and Carlos's 12-minute run time was 4,300 meters.
This result made both Fernandez and Paller very happy. One had to know that the current Sporting Gihon Team B's average time of twelve minutes was only three thousand nine hundred meters. Four thousand three hundred meters was above average. Taking into account that this kid had traveled a long way and was physically exhausted, this result could have been even better.

"This child is like a bear." Fernandez was amazed by Juan and Carlos's strong body.
"No! He's like a leopard! Strong physique, strong muscles, and amazing explosive power! "Parer said.
Li Ang was not interested in discussing whether this child was a bear or a leopard. He only asked his assistant, "Do we sign?"
"Of course!"
"We must get him!"
The two coaches said together.
Li Ang laughed.
He caught a glimpse of Alice who had been paying attention to this side, and the girl's face was full of anxiety and expectation.
Seeing that Li Ang had noticed her, the girl embarrassedly stuck out her tongue.
Li Ang made an OK gesture to the girl, and then he saw the happy smile on the girl's face.
This smile was very beautiful, very pure. It made people feel that the whole sky was so bright, the clouds were so white, and the blue sky was so blue … The mood was so happy and satisfied.
