Iceland, a cold country with year-round snow and ice, where a large part of the year is spent playing outdoors in harsh conditions, had a poor soccer infrastructure more than 20 years ago, with soccer fields full of gravel. In the 2000s, Icelandic soccer changed dramatically, and they began to promote the construction of soccer infrastructure, more than 150 outdoor stadiums with geothermal snow-melting devices, as well as several indoor soccer stadiums, which became a key reason for the takeoff of Icelandic soccer. One of the players who will be a key influence on the future of Icelandic soccer today was born during this period and is destined to take on the responsibility of Icelandic soccer's rise, Albert Guðmundsson.
In the 23/24 season, Genoa's return to the Serie A as runners-up to Sampdoria in the Serie B season is the city's hope due to Sampdoria's relegation last season. With the legendary Italian soccer player - Alberto Gilardino as the

After the striker Mateo Retegui, together with the main lineup which had a great success in Yi B last season, the world is really looking forward to their performance.
Albert Guðmundsson, as the core of the team, was the most crucial player for Genoa to get out of the second division last season.

The Icelandic has been on the radar for a while now, and is seen as a much-needed addition to the team to regain their supremacy. However, Albert Guðmundsson, as the new king of Genoa's Stadio Ferraris, is more than happy to give his all to the city of Genoa in front of him.
Genoa's first match of the season, against Modena in the Coppa Italia, immediately demonstrated the full range of attacking skills that the Genoa team has been waiting for. Newcomer Retegui's brilliant performance of two goals and an assist shook the Italian soccer world, while Albert Guðmundsson, as a mainstay of the team's performance, was even more impressive, with a goal and an assist, and launched the team's key decisive goal.

The three offensive geniuses, Alberto Gilardino, Mateo Retegui and Albert Guðmundsson, are starting to leave the world with a lot to think about.
However, it was also the start of the season that saw Genoa struggle, and it was Albert Guðmundsson who stepped up to the plate after a breakthrough season in the second division last year. After starting the season with one win, one draw, and three defeats, the match against Roma in the sixth round of the Liga MX seemed to be seen as a blow to the much-anticipated Genoa team that couldn't rise to the occasion. But it was Albert Guðmundsson's Genoa who shone from start to finish.
Soon after the match started, Albert Guðmundsson's goal started a strong attack for the team, and finally Genoa sank the favorites Roma by three points, 4:1. The Icelander's excellent performance has been regarded by all the major media as the brightest star of this season's Serie A so far. In the seventh round of the away match with Udinese, if not for a late goal conceded due to an oops, the Icelander almost brought his team back to back victories by himself. He scored both of his team's goals in the match, and if not for an unfortunate offside, the Icelander would have pocketed a hat-trick and back-to-back victories. But after this game, he has written history, he became the first Icelandic player ever to score two goals in a single match in the Eredivisie. The eighth round of the Boxing Day League saw considerable attention and
