Name: The Iron Man on the Football Pitch
Author: Kyle Albert

Synopsis

After getting a second chance at life, Li Ling received a System that had been assigned to the wrong Host. The System was incredibly powerful, but a bit troublesome to use.

To make better use of the System, Li Ling followed his love of soccer from his previous life and chose to play professionally, beginning his career at Sporting CP in Lisbon, Portugal.

From then on, the soccer world gained a legendary star known as Zidane's second coming, Cristiano Ronaldo's brother from another mother, and the eternally healthy Marco van Basten.

Off the field, there were plenty of entertaining stories about a certain tech tycoon, a walking sex machine, a miraculous doctor, and a Twitter warrior.

[There is a System, but no stat-boosting, and no System interference in matches. He relies on his own effort, training, and growth for a fulfilling life.]

Any Good Soccer Novels? Not Ones That Start Out at European Clubs

Any great soccer novels, folks? Not ones where the protagonist starts out at a European club or in the European Cup. Preferably starting in China with school soccer, then going to a sports school, a domestic club, the AFC Champions League, an ordinary European club, and then the Europa League and European Cup.

I’m In a Serious Reading Slump, Please Recommend Good Books That Fit My Criteria 🙏 👇

Up to four books: no forced macho femininity, no everyone-loves-the-protagonist setups, no stupidity, and no nonsensical romance (romance is optional). No rebirth or transmigration, preferably no fake heiresses and real heiresses either. Also, the main characters should speak up. Thanks, everyone.
