The reporter reported coldly The national football team's squad for March was announced, and non-naturalized players Ackerson, Fernando and Alan were all unselected. The last time Ackerson was selected for the national football team was in June last year, and the last time Alain and Fernando were selected for the national football team was in October last year.

From October last year to the beginning of this year, Chengdu Rongcheng, Shandong Taishan and Qingdao West Coast "broke up" with Exxon, Fernando and Alan respectively. In January this year, Fernando politely refused the winter training camp of the national football team, citing the need to find a new club. To this day, the three non-naturalized internationals have not found a new club, and the national football coach Ivankovic will not recruit players who have no goals to play.

Recently, the national football team has accelerated its youthfulness in an all-round way, and new naturalized international players such as Serginho are about to join the team, and naturalized players are also iterating. Exon, Alain and Fernando, the first generation of non-naturalized internationals in Chinese football, are likely to completely retire from the stage of history.

In the round of 18 in November last year, Ackerson, Alain and Fernando were not included in the national football team.

The last time Ackerson was selected for the national team was in the round of 36 in June last year, and he has not been selected for the national team in the round of 18. Exxon's defeat was due to a dip in form and injury. Last year, Ackerson only made 8 appearances for Chengdu Rongcheng, playing a total of only 194 minutes, and handed over 2 goals and 1 assist. Suffering from a knee injury, Ackerson has been completely marginalized at the club, and after the FA Cup match against Nantong Zhiyun on July 16 last year, Ackerson did not play for Chengdu Rongcheng, and subsequently, he terminated his contract with Chengdu Rongcheng. Although there were rumors with the Chinese Super League and even the Chinese League club after leaving Chengdu Rongcheng in October last year, there was no follow-up in the end. With no ball to play and unable to maintain his form, he became the first non-naturalized international player to be waived by Ivankovic. Returning to Brazil at the end of last year, Ackerson joined a beach soccer team and is largely semi-retired.

Alain, who was selected for the Chinese national team for the first time in 2021, left the Chinese Super League in 2022 to return to Fluminense, and has been unemployed for a period of time since then. Before joining Qingdao West Coast early last year, Alan had been unemployed for half a year. Since May last year, Alan has scored 6 goals and 2 assists in 7 Super League games, and has also become the captain of Qingdao West Coast. Alan returned to the national football team after more than two years, but he was unable to maintain a stable playing time due to constant injuries. After October last year, he lost his main position on the west coast of Qingdao, and Ivan, who was selected according to his form, naturally could not include him in the national team.

Fernando gradually lost his main position in Shandong Taishan last year and was loaned to Shanghai Shenhua in the summer, although he played the main team, but the overall performance was not ideal, playing a total of 17 games in three competitions, only three involved in the goal, a total of 1 goal and 4 assists. At the end of last year's season, Fernando, who ended his loan, returned to Shandong Taishan, and when his contract expired, Taishan did not renew his contract, so he could only leave the team. In the winter training camp of the national football team in January this year, Ivankovic originally recruited Fernando to join the team, but he wanted to focus on finding a new club and politely declined the call-up of the national team. It's just a pity that so far, Fernando has not found a new owner and still has no ball to play.

Three non-naturalized international players missed the winter transfer period of the Chinese Super League and the Chinese League, and the teams of Japan's J-League (closed on March 26) and South Korea's K-League (closed on March 27) and Southeast Asia's Vietnam League (closed on March 10) can still transfer players, but all three have not had systematic training and games for a long time, and it may be difficult to have the opportunity to find employment opportunities in these three leagues. Fernando will turn 32 next week, and Ackerson and Alain will turn 36 in July. Even if they find a new club later, it will be difficult for their form to return to the level of being able to be selected for the national football team.

Exxon, Alain and Fernando were representatives of the first generation of non-naturalized internationals who paid a huge price to naturalize them in the first place. According to foreign media reports, it cost a lot to naturalize Exxon and other six people, Exxon and Allan have an annual salary of 15 million euros, and Fernan's annual salary is 8 million euros, and these players are also given a lot of settling-in fees.

Among the three, Ackerson, who was originally in the best form in the Chinese Super League, also performed the best in the national football team. Ackerson made his national football debut as early as September 2019, and to his most recent appearance for the national football team (March 2024), he has made a total of 19 appearances for the national team, handing over 4 goals and 3 assists.

The four goals he scored for the national team were all in the top 40 between 2019 and 2021, with two goals each against the Maldives and Guam. In the 2019 Chinese Super League season, Ackerson was still in very good form, and he scored 10 goals and 1 assist in 9 league games from July to August.

In the round of 12 that began in September 2021, when the national team did not pay much attention to non-naturalized players, Ackerson did not receive strong support and could not fully play his strengths, although he made six consecutive appearances. In the first three games against Australia, Japan and Vietnam, only one non-naturalized international player started, and he was difficult to support. He was then reduced to a substitute against Saudi Arabia and Oman, and only had the opportunity to play with Alan and Luo Guofu in the second half. In the home game against Australia again, the three non-naturalized players finally started at the same time, and the national football team and Australia were tied 1-1 in that game. Later, due to injury problems and the relationship between returning to Brazil to join Gremio in Brazil, the national football team paid less attention to it, and Ackerson's form was also declining, and his performance in the Chinese Super League was not as good as before. He was not selected for the Asian Cup squad at the beginning of last year, and only played 10 minutes in four games in the round of 36 in March and June, and then missed the national football squad for the round of 18.

Allan's fate in the national football team is similar to that of Ackerson, who also had good statistics in the league system in the summer of that year, scoring 2 goals and 6 assists in 7 games. He made his national football debut in the round of 40 in the summer of 2021, but failed to start in the first four games of the round of 12. When it came to starting against Oman and Australia, the national football team drew both games. At the beginning of 2022, he and Exxon could only leave the Chinese Super League and return to Brazil because of their club relationship, and gradually lost their form in the long-term training camp of the national team and the rush to return to Brazil and then return to the Chinese Super League.

Fernando has been naturalized since 2020, and in June 2021, he joined the team with an injury in the round of 40, and was injured due to too much training, which led to his injury and absence for a year and a half, and he missed all the games in the round of 12. In the 2023 season, after recovering from injury, he joined Shandong Taishan and performed well in the Taishan team. In 2024, Fernando will make his national football debut. Although he started 6 times in 7 games in the first 3 rounds of the round of 36 and round of 18, 5 of which were starters, only Fernando was a non-naturalized naturalized player, and he did not receive enough support.

Since November last year, with the rise of young local internationals, three elderly non-blood naturalized internationals have lost the opportunity to enter the national football team. The first batch of non-naturalized internationals such as Ackerson, Allan and Fernando and Luo Guofu could have played a greater role if they could have been reused in the national football team and formed a joint force, but these players were artificially restricted, and finally wasted the huge cost paid when naturalization, so that they could not help the national football team "go further" when they were in good shape, which is a pity.
