What Nakamura conceals
Something happens to Shunsuke Nakamura. The Japanese soccer player was the signing it covers with stars of the Espanyol but at the moment there is no his news on the green carpet. The arrival of the left-handed soccer player to the Barcelona woke up the illusion to a project led by Mauricio Pochettino in the stool and presumentamente for the Japanese on the field of play in a club, the espanyolista, without money for big investments and that made use of his contract ending with the Celtic of Glasgow to do to him a tantalizing offer that Nakamura did not hesitate to accept. Five months later, not only it is not indisputable for his trainer but when it plays, as last weekend before the unnoticed Athletic one, happens.
It does slightly more than one month, the midfielder was recognizing his situation: "I have not reached my best level yet and know that I can give more to the team. I am satisfied with my adaptation although I know that I have to improve in many aspects of the game. I know that I must be a little more aggressive playing and not to think so much, but to execute quickly the actions. I have not adapted myself to the Spanish League yet. I know that I have to strain more”. True. Nakamura is seen slowly, lost, in disconnection with his partners and with a soccer very different from the Scot. Also, the position in which it places Pochettino is not to the one that was accustomed in the Celtic, since in Scotland it was playing with more movements freedom and not so escorado to the band.
Also his he does not attend supposes a danger for those who saw in him a good income source due to the effect mediático in his country. In Japan they consider not to express the parties of the Espanyol if his biggest representative does not play. And if it does not play, the contracts that are on the point of caramel, like that of a possible tour next August in Japanese grounds, they can remain without rubric. The international one, of 31 years and that signed for two periods, has still a lot of time ahead, but his acclimation to the country, to his customs and to a language that resists him it depends also on his personal situation. The Japanese is alone in Barcelona and the club moves all the possible threads so that it could bring his wife, in Japan from a few months since it came with a tourist’s visa and had to return.
There are different the points on which the success of the soccer player depends in the biggest challenge of his career. While, the espanyolismo keeps on waiting for the magic of the Japanese, his class in the absence throwings. After all, what Nakamura conceals.
