1. 1 从 [Football] From Beloved Little Kid to King of the Ball [足球]从团宠幼崽到球王 Heaven's Radiance天予昭晖Danmei (BL)864k WordsOngoing His professional debut is in Chapter 53. If you don’t enjoy the childhood arc, feel free to skip ahead; it won’t affect the story. Thanks for supporting the original! At four years old, watched by tens of thousands of fans, a little blond boy stole the ball, dribbled past defenders, and scored in one fluid sequence, sending the whole stadium into a frenzy. After the match, the media praised him: “He’s inherited his father’s football genes perfectly.” Fans shouted excitedly: “This is Arsenal’s mi 15.2kFavorites16.5kClicks/ch36.1kGifts

   Ongoing/The main character is Bergkamp's son, a "raising a child" story. The protagonist is incredibly cute. The story begins before Pefa left Arsenal, and the timeline is quite interesting. The protagonist joins the first team after Tatum takes over Arsenal. Reading about Pefa in the story now evokes a lot of emotions! The author previously wrote about slapping forwards in the face, and this book is much smoother and the author is reliable in finishing their work. I highly recommend this one!

   Ongoing/Mainly a collection of imaginative ideas and "what if" scenarios, but the jokes are all really interesting! You can tell the author is a long-time football fan; the characterizations of some veteran players are particularly fitting. I especially loved the chapter about the tyrant Zimi. Ahhh, it's so delicious, I'm going to eat it all! Highly recommended!

3. 3 替 [Football] The Backup Goalkeeper [足球]替补门将 An Shisi Da安十四哒Danmei (BL)420k WordsOngoing With the first-choice goalkeeper injured, the second transferred, and the third retired, AC Milan decide to recall their youth academy goalkeeper. Tobias Blackwood makes his grand debut! Except he only starts for two weeks. He starts in the Champions League, tops the league, wins Olympic gold, and gets called up to the national team at just 21! Except the first-choice goalkeeper is Buffon. Don’t you want to transfer? Don’t you want to start more games? “I don’t.” He’s there when AC Milan win the 10.4kFavorites14.7kClicks/ch34.1kGifts

   Curator note

   Ongoing/A product of AC Milan's youth academy, a member of the Italian national team, playing as a goalkeeper. The writing is smooth and grounded, focusing on the protagonist's time at Milan. The story unfolds as the first goalkeeper suffers a sudden injury, the second goalkeeper transfers due to lack of playing time, and the third goalkeeper, preparing to retire and transition to goalkeeping coaching, is temporarily recalled from loan to the first team as a replacement. The protagonist is a slow-burner with excellent technique, bordering on being a heartthrob but not detached from reality. At times, he's incredibly unreliable (even more so than Marco Polo – is this the charm of a goalkeeper?). His interactions with the Milan first team and national team are engaging. The story touches on starting position conflicts and being sidelined, but avoids any unnecessary drama or unnecessary suffering for the protagonist. The plot progresses very smoothly. Recommended.

I can’t change my pen name right now, but I want it to be Feng Sibei. Thanks, girls! Also known as: The Spineless Midfielder Play Football! All you need is legs! A sharp-tongued football fan transmigrates into a Bayern youth forward with a broken ankle. His running is youth-team level, and his shooting is neighborhood-pitch level. On the first day of his recovery, the club’s youth director tries to get him to quit. The story starts on hell difficulty! 23.5kFavorites35.5kClicks/ch110.9kGifts

   Curator note

   Completed. The protagonist transmigrates into a German. The overall writing style feels like a male-oriented author from a popular online novel platform writing on Jinjiang Literature City. It avoids many of the typical pitfalls of online novels, instead featuring a classic "thirty-year fortune, thirty-year cycle" trope, a typical overpowered protagonist. There's no romantic pairing or harem. The clubs are Borussia Mönchengladbach, Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich, and the national team is Germany. The writing style and word choice are excellent in the early stages, but become increasingly fluid as the story progresses, with a smooth plot. The protagonist and Ballack are a very compelling couple (the protagonist breaks up with the national team for Ballack, Ballack willingly gives up the captain's armband so the protagonist can join the national team, they make a pact to win the championship, etc.—A typical example of a male-male romance novel from a popular online novel platform, where a simple act can leave a lasting impression). The character development is also very complete and clear. Although there is a system, it rarely appears after the first dozen or so chapters. I personally really enjoyed the portrayal of characters with differing ideologies and perspectives on events, and I highly recommend it.

After years of barren soil, Bayern's youth academy has finally grown another fresh, sweet little cabbage. This talented young player made his way through the fierce competition at Bayern at a young age and secured a spot in the first team. The club takes good care of him as he grows, but he still has plenty to worry about. Bayern is full of superstars, and as a youngster, he doesn't get many chances to play.

   Curator note

   Ongoing series / Main characters are Bayern Munich players, the "DJI prince," with Bayern Munich and the German national team. The timeline is around the 2021-22 season. The plot is relatively uneventful, but the author excels at depicting the relationships between players and clubs, as well as workplace dynamics and power struggles, creating a relatable and engaging narrative. Recommended.

   Curator note

   Ongoing/Club: Arsenal; National Team: Netherlands; Romance: Van Persie. The protagonist is an experimental beagle-human hybrid. Compared to the author's other works with overly romanticized settings, this one feels more realistic. There's still a cheat code, but it's more palatable and less cheesy. A potential pitfall is the protagonist's constant "werwerwerwer" in the early chapters, which might feel a bit jarring and childish. I really enjoyed the interactions between the protagonist and the professor, and the power struggles with Debye. This novel features a huge amount of political intrigue and power struggles—rarely seen in a football novel. It includes locker room conflicts, vying for team leadership, fighting the head coach, catching a mole in the locker room, power struggles with management, power struggles with the national team, and interference in other club power struggles—it's very comprehensive. Some parts are fictional, purely for the protagonist's benefit, but so far, I personally feel some parts aren't just fiction; the protagonist is genuinely involved in power struggles. It's just that because the protagonist's public persona is that of a beagle, people assume a dog wouldn't do these things, which is an overestimation. This article contains a lot of German/Dutch football content, and it's updated very consistently; highly recommended.

   Curator note

   Ongoing/Onion Master was caught by the editor! Three simulation stories are currently completed. One is about Ma Da Zui's son, Ma Xiao Zui, Bayern Munich/German national team, the young Bayern emperor, with Klose as his love interest—a typical overpowered protagonist storyline. The family relationship between Ma Xiao Zui and Beckham is very touching, and the rivalry with Ballack is hilarious. Another is about Lahm's childhood friend, Julian, from Bayern's youth academy/AC Milan/Bayern/German national team, with Lahm as his love interest. He grows up in Milan after being loaned by Bayern, and later returns to Bayern; his growth storyline is very complete and touching. Julian's growth and ideological transformation are written very smoothly and movingly, the romance is interesting, the "decent person breaks down" trope is great, and his interactions with Sugar Plum/Rose/Ballack are also very enjoyable. I personally really like Julian's storyline. The third one is Shevchenko Jr. At Stamford Bridge, Shevchenko's younger brother, the son of Bruin and Guaia, Lampard's silly striker, and his bond with Bruin and Guaia is very interesting. Moreover, Ilya is always growing and is especially cute. I look forward to the update of the fourth chapter, Ronaldinho!

   Curator note

   The story is currently being serialized in episodic format, with the first episodic chapter completed. The protagonist of the first episodic chapter has a very interesting setup: the East German Chemnitz twins, childhood friends with Ballack, a legacy of the Soviet Union in a sense, the core of the team that defeated Brazil to win the World Cup in 1994 using the "player save/load" technique (17 saves), the grandson of Debayor, Beckenbauer's darling, Klinsmann's little pearl, and Matthäus's close friend on the opposing side. The protagonist's relationship with Ballack is incredibly strong, a solid Debayor-Balloon bond, and the storylines with Matthäus and Beckenbauer are also very engaging. This non-CP (no romantic pairing) story has me shipping them off like crazy [pat on the head]. There are also many delicious fan creations in the comments section. The synopsis has been retrieved. Following the story all the way through has left me feeling very disappointed, even knowing that the protagonist's retirement was just because a player quit the game, it's still incredibly sad [crying]. Another very significant characteristic of this story is that due to the historical context (Soviet dissolution/reunification of East and West Germany), the overall writing has a subtle post-Soviet melancholic feel, and it touches on ideology/the current situation in East Germany after reunification, etc., Making it particularly enjoyable! The second installment has started updating. It features the "Red Butterfly" with dual Spanish and English citizenship; his national team is likely Spanish, and he switched clubs from Real Madrid to Czechoslovakia. He has great chemistry with Guti and Raul in the series… Looking forward to the next update! [Hugs]

   Completed/National Team Italy, Club Mao. This book is written with exceptional detail. It's a very slice-of-life story, but incredibly enjoyable. The main pairing is Yin Jiu, but the author also updates on Weibo with an all-star romance with An Dong's courtyard theme. It's a very old-school, IKEA-esque story with an impartial Yang Jian vibe. The characters are portrayed very realistically, and while reading, you might get the illusion that An Dong actually exists in real life. The only downside might be that it's a bit too slice-of-life for some readers, but it's still highly recommended!

The System told you, “You will become the best striker, midfielder, defender, and goalkeeper of this century. Your mission is to win or die.” You didn’t want to die.

    The story is currently on hiatus/a relatively rare pairing, featuring a coach, the English national team, an adorable blondie, a handsome guy with extremely high moral standards, who can play any position on the field. It's a very good story, but sadly, it's on hiatus. The club is dominant, and the national team is England. If you don't mind the hiatus, you can check it out; it's quite good!

    Completed/I really loved the storyline between Abramovich and Shad in the novel. Their interactions were even more touching than the romance. The protagonist is a slightly dim-witted mixed-race Russian kid. It all started when Abramovich brought him to the Premier League. He wanted to stay there for life but was forced by reality to do so. The part where Abramovich forcibly sold him for his future made me cry so much… The romance is about his ex-boyfriend's breakup and his current girlfriend, Modric. It's also very well written. It's the kind of story where love can drive people crazy and make them grow flesh and blood. It's very wholesome. The only downside might be that the protagonist is a bit silly, but he's very cute. Recommended!

    Completed/This novel features the protagonist playing in all five major European leagues except Ligue 1. The writing is excellent, and the plot is very complete, with different storylines focusing on each club. It's a captivating read with no sense of fatigue. The story begins and ends with Lazio. One potential pitfall is that Teo has played for both AC Milan clubs. My two favorite parts are the Chelsea and Bayern Munich loan stories. One is about stepping out of his comfort zone and leading a team step by step to a top club, with adorable interactions with Abramovich and the "goose" (referring to a character in a popular Chinese TV drama). The other is about divorced parents who stay together for their child, but who actually love each other deeply. The third is about learning team management and tactics to change the national team. The Bayern Munich storyline is incredibly absurd. The author's writing is exceptional, and the plot, starting from Bayern, is interspersed with many hilarious and absurd jokes, making it incredibly funny and interesting. It's a very long novel and highly recommended!

    Completed / A Debye double captain and defender, desperately wanting to retire, is incredibly charismatic and possesses exceptional leadership. The story unfolds along two interwoven storylines, a tragicomedy with a strong Debye flavor. It starts with palace intrigue, and while the early episodes might feel a bit frustrating, the later episodes have a slightly melancholic feel. However, the later developments, particularly Karl's self-reconciliation and transformation, are well-written and make for a good read. Recommended.

    Completed/very old, but because this is the book that got me hooked on football, I'll spoil it. Gadir Universe 2.0 Milan Chapter, the beloved and sweet character, England team, but with a terrible personality. The child's parents are awful, and he lacked love in his childhood, causing him to seek love everywhere as an adult. The romance is also an Omega story, but Ma Baolu is the eternal main heroine. Some plot points are a bit dramatic and dark, but it's super good. I started watching football because I stumbled upon this story while staying home during the World Cup, and from then on, I was hooked. I especially love the clashes between him and Guardiola when he's on loan to Barcelona. They both love each other, but they can't keep the sweet character who's determined to return to Milan. It has a Spanish angst feel (just kidding). In the end, he still goes back to Milan, and he loves it. The barrier might be the fact that this book features a super-playboy, and the extremely bad personality, plus the loan to Barcelona. However, the author's interactions with the club level are numerous and don't feel uncomfortable. The protagonist is super rich and bought Arsenal for the England national team, then took the professor to manage the national team while he was busy with other things. Anyway, as a country bumpkin, I love it. Recommended!

    Completed/Grandma's story, but without Milan and Gadir. The character development is better than Milan and Gadir's. It's the Liverpool arc of the Gadir Universe 1.0. He's a beloved and sweet character, plays for the French national team, and I love the scenes where he plays in the World Cup with Zidane. His relationship with Gerrard is also great, though it leans towards an Omega/Omega romance, which I love. He's very sweet and caring. Like Gerrard, he spends his entire career at Liverpool. The main obstacles might be his somewhat Mary Sue-ish personality and the fact that Liverpool was bought by oil tycoons, but those tycoons are good people and don't interfere too much in the team. His character is much better than Milan and Gadir's. I really like it and recommend it!

Her interactions with Robson and Mourinho were particularly well-written, and I especially loved the Arsenal storyline.

However, the transfer wasn't entirely pleasant (the management was incredibly stupid, so please don't blame me, I'm a big fan of Arsenal). Anyway, I highly recommend it!

    Completed/Grandma's work, the setting is very interesting. The Gadir Universe 3.0 Dortmund arc, the final chapter of the Yellow and Black team, the German national team, the main heroine Reus, an epic dark fantasy, but the dark, twisted, feudal flavor of Germany is very authentic, the romance is also leaning towards OH (Original Emotional Outcome), the barrier is that Gadir's mental state is very unstable and he has low self-esteem, which may be very uncomfortable for readers. The German men in the story are also mentally abnormal, but the dark flavor is particularly appealing. My interest in German men came from reading this story, those who read it will understand.
