After watching this game, Simeone especially left the entire team behind.

"I want to say a few words to you briefly."

Simeone pulled up a chair and sat across from the players.

This will give everyone a sense of equality.

"This season is almost over. No matter what happens, I feel very happy, really." Simeone said sincerely. This was the result of his thinking at home last night.

This season, he focused more on technical and tactical aspects to realize his own ideas, while neglecting the players.

Lindy’s incident made him understand that he might not have done a good enough job in team building.

"In the past season, we defeated the powerful Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey. This was the first championship won entirely by me as coach!"

"We are still ranked in the top three in the league, and to be honest, this is all due to you."

"Similarly, what excites me even more is that we reached the Champions League final. This is something I couldn't even imagine before coming here."

"You guys are really great and I love you."

"Next, we have five games, which will determine the outcome of our efforts this season."

"4 league games and 1 Champions League final!"

"Think about your training this season, think about every game you fight for, you are all adults, and I don't want to preach to you."

"Let us get through this most difficult month of May together!"

Afterwards, Simeone stepped forward and hugged each player.

This is something he has never done.

It also made everyone feel the changes in Simeone.

...

When Lindy came back from the club, he saw Hull waiting at home again. He put down his luggage and asked, "What should I say?"

Hull took out his computer and read: "A weekly salary of 100,000 euros, which is the greatest sincerity they can give, a signing fee of 5 million euros, a four-year contract, and a liquidated damages of 100 million euros."

Lindy was silent, and he looked at Hull, "What are the conditions like?"

The latter said nothing and looked directly into Lindy's eyes.

After a long while, Hull finally spoke: "The weekly salary is doubled, the contract is renewed for 4 years, and the liquidated damages are only increased by 40 million. Although the liquidated damages are high, it is nothing compared to Messi's 250 million."

As if thinking of something, Hull continued, "Due to the setback in the Champions League, Barcelona is worried that Messi will be poached and is preparing to sign a new contract with Messi. The liquidated damages are expected to exceed 500 million euros."

"I believe that once the news comes out, Real Madrid will also re-sign the contract with Ronaldo, and the liquidated damages will not be too low."

"This comparison should be very clear, right?"

Lindy nodded, "It seems that we have worried too much? With 100,000 euros, is there room for it to rise in the future?"

"15% every year. I specifically asked for part of the Golden Globe Award, assist award, appearance fee, and they all agreed. It seems that the club also realizes your importance." Hull said it truthfully, but in his heart he felt that today

Things went a little too smoothly.

"It's normal. The Champions League is about to start. Little Alfonso has come to my house four times to check repeatedly whether we can win. He has almost finished the orange juice at home. This stinky boy."

"Oh, by the way, I collected a bouquet of irises for you when I came here. The title of the book is Irene. Of course, I didn't mean to read it."

Lindy saw the bouquet on the table and hurried forward.

There is a small card on the exquisitely packaged iris, signed on the outside: Irene.

Fortunately, Hull didn't open it.

He carefully opened the gilded card. The handwriting on it was beautiful, as if he knew he didn't understand French, so he wrote it in Spanish:

Lindy

Congratulations on leading Atletico Madrid to the Champions League final for the first time.

These are the irises that I asked someone to bring from behind the Sacré-Coeur in Paris.

It represents light, freedom, and victory!

I wish you the final victory in the finals!

Of course, I will also go to watch the game live.

But I don't have a ticket.

So when you see this bouquet of iris flowers representing victory, remember to send me a ticket.

It would be even better if I could have a jersey!

Address: Oxford University......

Lindy smiled as she looked at it.

Seeing Lindy like this, Hull waited patiently and wisely.

After a while, Lindy realized that Hull was still waiting, coughed slightly, turned to Hull and said, "Okay, let's just sign the contract."

The latter nodded.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

...

Soon, the club arranged to sign Lindy.

Before the 35th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid officially announced:

Lindy signed a four-year contract with the club with a liquidated damages of 100 million euros.

I don’t know whether it is intentional or not, but this message is pitifully short, only 4 years and 100 million.

But fans and teammates are very excited, especially several players who plan to renew their contracts.

There are also people who plan to arrange for agents to communicate with the club about a new contract after the season. People will be jealous of salary increases.

Fans even went crazy to buy Lindy's No. 6 jersey until the inventory of the club's specialty store was sold out.

On May 8, Atletico Madrid welcomed its opponent Mallorca in the 35th round of the league.

What's interesting is that today's three games happen to include Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

The current points of the three teams are:

Real Madrid 87 points;

Barcelona 85 points;

Atletico Madrid 83 points;

Atletico Madrid takes the lead in kicking off the match at two o'clock in the capital.

The whole team was united in this game.

Even if Mallorca takes a big step to avoid relegation, no one is afraid of it.

In the 20th minute of the game, Van der Vaart gave Atletico the lead.

Sanchez stuck to the ball a little bit in the penalty area, and the opponent's defender seized the opportunity to steal it.

With a big kick to the midfield, Lindy quickly retreated, knocked away the opponent's forward in the air, and grabbed the ball.

Lindy glanced at the opponent in the air and thought in a wicked way: If you dare to steal my ball, I will give you some shoes next season.

Then he sent a precise through ball, and Van der Vaart succeeded in countering offside and scored with a single shot.

After taking the lead, Simeone's old habits recurred.

Atletico Madrid began to shrink its entire team and began to defend against counterattacks.

The scene was once reversed, with Mallorca attacking around Atletico Madrid.

The 39th minute of the game.

Mallorca took the ball from the right and the football flew forward. Godin made some small mistakes in judging the height of the football.

Mallorca striker Victor heads the football.

Godin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Boom!"

The football hit the post hard and bounced off the baseline.

"Oh~~~~"

The scene was so frightened that I broke into a cold sweat.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, but Lindy couldn't hold it back after all.

54th minute of game time.

Lindy took advantage of an interception and ran wildly with the ball.

Under his leadership, the team seemed to suddenly come to life.

Lindy took the opportunity to pass the ball to Reyes on the left, who made a one-two with Van der Vaart and then made a smooth pass.

A late pass was passed, but Sanchez did not stick to the ball this time.

Another cross-court knock, and Felipe followed up with a header from the center.

Atletico Madrid also relied on this goal to narrowly pass the game 2-0.

After the game, everyone immediately rushed back to the locker room.

Because there, the Barcelona game begins.
Chapter completed!
