Blue Lock chapter 310, titled Give It Up, saw Igarashi Gurimu advising Seishiro Nagi to continue playing football. While he achieved his dream of becoming a pro by getting a bid during the Neo Egoist League, Nagi was far from satisfied.

That's when Nagi revealed to Igaguri that he had already received an opportunity from Buratsuta to return to the U-20 team. However, he rejected it because he did not want to betray Blue Lock. However, Igaguri believed Nagi had already betrayed Blue Lock with his pass to Reo in his match against FC Barcha.

According to Igaguri, one should never bother about what others may think about them while pursuing a dream. These words saw Seishiro Nagi getting fired up.

What to expect from Blue Lock chapter 311?

With only two days left ahead of the U-20 World Cup, Blue Lock chapter 311 will likely see Blue Lock Japan make their final preparation ahead of the U-20 World Cup. Amidst this, JFU Chairman Hirotoshi Buratsuta could finally approach Ego Jinpachi, providing him with the list of players who are set to join the national team as part of Buratsuta 3.

With that, fans can expect to see Seishiro Nagi return to Blue Lock. While this development will indeed draw a reaction, fans can also expect to learn who else Buratsuta might have picked other than Nagi and Sae.
