The Espanyol Club announced on the 17th that Chinese player Wu Lei officially renewed his contract with the team until June 30, 2024, and will play with the team in the second league next season.

　　Chinanews client, Beijing, September 1st (Zhang Yifan) On the 31st, Beijing time, the Spaniard ended the two warm-up games recently prepared for the pre-season.

Faced with two newly promoted La Liga teams, they have a tie and a loss and it is difficult to win.

Wu Lei has made few starts in a row. Can he lead the team back to La Liga?

　　As expected by Chinese fans, Wu Lei played a key role in the frontcourt in the coach Moreno's system.

But he did not come up with a good form, and the cooperation with his striker partner was not satisfactory.

It is difficult to make Moreno satisfied with the uncollected answers in the two games.

　　In this game, Wu Lei had almost no chance to get close to the goal, and only had an "embarrassed" shot in the eighth minute.

For two consecutive games, his condition looks worrying.

　　In the eyes of many people, even if Wu Lei followed the Spaniard to West Second Division, if he could sit firmly in the starting lineup, it would be an acceptable thing for his personal development.

However, with his current state and the retention of De Thomas and others, Wu Lei may lose his position.

Wu Lei, who was in his prime, was substituted in the West Second Division, which is unacceptable for fans.

　　During the offseason, three players, including Wu Lei, chose to lower their personal salaries, expressed their loyalty and commitment to the Parrots, and made unremitting efforts for the team to return to La Liga.

The team's determination to return to La Liga can be seen, but this was not reflected in these two games.

　　Judging from these two games alone, the Spaniard's weakness in the frontcourt still remains unsolved.

At least the team can't show convincing performance when facing opponents at the edge of La Liga.

If you just talk about the situation, the Spaniard may not be at a disadvantage, but only by reaping victory can they gain the confidence to be in next season.

　　Moreno, the new coach of the Spanish team, also criticized the disciples after the game. He was a little disappointed by the players' lack of ability to seize opportunities in the game.

The Spaniard was unable to win the victory while occupying the advantage of the scene and the ball.

　　On the back line, the vacancy where captain Harvey Lopez left the team still needs to be resolved.

Oscar Gil of Elche is rumored to be an effective supplement to the Spanish line of defense.

Barring surprises, Jill will be the Spaniard's third new aid this summer after MiGron and Merida.

　　In just one season, the Spaniard experienced a huge gap from the European war to the West Division.

Now they want to lie down and try their best if they find the cohesion of the team when they enter the European war.

Any goal without strength as a support is empty talk, and the opponents of the Second Division will not be willing to be the background board of this inspirational story.

　　La Liga will kick off on September 12, leaving less than two weeks for the Spaniard to adjust.

The team should digest the content of these two warm-up games in time and sum up the reasons for the lack of goals.

　　In addition to restoring form during the offseason, the significance of these two opponents is very valuable.

Huesca and Cadiz were separated from the top two in the La Liga last season, both of which are newly promoted teams in La Liga in the new season, and their strength can also be used as a reference for the Spaniards.

　　Zaragoza, Almeria, Girona and other former La Liga regulars all performed well last season, and they are also very close to La Liga.

If nothing else, they will also become the main rivals of the Spaniard's road to the top.

The gap between them and the two hot match opponents is between the two. If they can't gain an advantage in direct dialogue, it may not be easy to win.

　　The 24-year-old MiGron, who is on loan from Villarreal, will join the team in Marbella on Friday.

In the coming week, the Spaniard's complete lineup for the new season will also surface.

Whether the team can improve the problems exposed in these two games still needs further observation.

　　The season has not yet started, and the warm-up match is not entirely representative.

With the change of coaches and personnel, there is nothing wrong with running-in problems in a short time.

Returning to La Liga is an arduous tug-of-war, and it also requires Wu Lei and his teammates to put all their efforts into it.
