or if the folder structure public>> assets >> frontend >> images>> players>> 1.jpg
<img src="{{asset('assets/frontend/images/players/1.jpg')}}" alt="location-team">
@rin4ik just gave you correct answer...
asset() helper looks at public folder only. So you can grab an asset by calling asset('css/app.css') for example.
In your case, you created an assets directory and inside you nested a couple more directories... so you clearly must specify full path to the asset.
If you feel like it's a bit too much to write, you could always create your own little helper function that will look into public/assets/frontend/ for example.
it,s work now but next problem is below
style="background-image:http://127.0.0.1:8000/assets/frontend/images/players/1.jpg
this doesn't work
You did not correctly specify that path...
style="background-image: url('{{ asset('assets/frontend/images/players/1.png') }}');"
style="background-image: url('/assets/frontend/images/players/1.png')"
