Live broadcast, July 27 -recently, Chinese naturalized player Li Kael accepted an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency.

Speaking of his mother’s previous recognition process, Li Kele said: “This is of great significance to me and makes me understand where we come from. I know my root is in China, and it can even be traced back to 100 years ago. My great foreign grandfather was born here, and I am honored to pay tribute to him. It is very important for me to represent him well and inherit his spirit. I believe he will also be proud of me.

“I don’t know whether they (the people) will accept us. I have worried. I hope they can welcome us. They did the same. I left a lot of good memories, eating and chatting with my family and making dumplings. They fired firecrackers to welcome us. There is a basketball court in the village. I also shot with the children in the village and had a good time. This is a great experience in my life.

“In China, I feel that I am back home and sincerely welcomed and accepted by my family. This makes me know that China attaches great importance to home, which is also a very important value concept for me. It is of great significance to me to salute my family, my roots, the past and the tradition. I also want to continue to carry forward the tradition.” Li Kelle said.
