947 Three Leaders

Ancelotti came to Madrid on the second day of July.

He was accompanied by his agent Canovi and his son David Ancelotti.

David will also enter Real Madrid's coaching team in the new season. He has been studying with Giovani Mauri recently. Mauri has been Ancelotti's best partner in the past few years and is also a world-renowned top physical coach.

Since reaching an agreement with Real Madrid, Ancelotti and his team have obtained the team's new season schedule from Real Madrid, including North America training camp and Asia tour. They are ready for pre-season preparations.

This time Ancelotti came to Madrid, which is about to usher in his first appearance at the Bernabeu.

Of course, his appearance cannot be as sensational as the debut ceremony of Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic and Kaka two years ago. No one even noticed his appearance at the Capital Airport. This is the situation of the head coach.

If it were Yang Yang, he would have been blocked by the media and fans who came to hear the news.

Real Madrid arranged for an employee from the athletic department to pick him up at the airport and took Ancelotti and the other two directly to the Bernabeu Stadium.

Chief Executive Manuel Retondo, Technical Director Bardano, Special Advisor Zidane, and Sports Director Padessa, all the senior executives of Real Madrid gathered in the office of the Bernabeu to welcome the arrival of Ancelotti.

But this is still somewhat insufficient.

"Mr. Perez held a very important meeting on the company, and he asked us to start first." Redondo noticed Ancelotti's expression and explained.

Ancelotti nodded with a smile. He spoke with Florentino on the phone, but he also knew clearly that in the current Real Madrid club, his direct boss is Valdano, and Manuel Redondo is further upwards, and then Florentino is Florentino.

He even vaguely heard some news that Florentino was promoting modern management at Real Madrid. In fact, he didn't participate much in affairs. He left Redondo all the big and small things to take charge of, and he was more in control of the overall situation.

Of course, in this case, if he appears, it will undoubtedly represent Real Madrid's emphasis on Ancelotti.

But unfortunately, Ancelotti knew very well that he did not have such weight.

After all, this is not his official debut ceremony.

...

After meeting, everyone went straight into the conference room and immediately got to the topic after the secretary brought coffee and drinks one after another.

The topic of this meeting was Ancelotti's next management of Real Madrid, including how he planned to manage the locker room, the team, and whether he would make appropriate changes to Valdebebas, or whether he had specific ideas and requirements.

Bardano made it clear that Real Madrid agreed to Ancelotti's previous request to allow him to further expand the first-team coaching team, but only 20 players can be reached, and Real Madrid will also help pay the fee at their discretion.

What many fans outside have always misunderstood is that the salary of their own coaching staff has always been paid by the head coach.

For example, Benitez's team, Yesterdam and others received their salary from Benitez.

In other words, the salary paid by Real Madrid to the head coach is actually the salary paid to the entire coaching team.

Ancelotti's salary is not low, reaching a high price of 8 million euros a year, but everyone in Real Madrid also believes that he and his team deserve this treatment, at least proved it in A Milan and Chelsea.

Of course, many times the club will share the salary and benefits of some coaches for the head coach as appropriate, so Real Madrid's requirement is that Ancelotti's coaching team cannot exceed twenty people, which is also of particular importance.

In the past two years, Guardiola has been continuously expanding its coaching team. At the most, the coaching staff of the first team reached more than 30, which is more than the players. This has also caused Barcelona to bear expensive salary expenses. So after Rossell came on stage, he immediately asked Guardiola to cut the coaching staff list, and the two also had conflicts.

There is an old saying among Chinese people: Soldiers are more important than elites.

Sometimes there are many coaches, but it may not necessarily be a good thing.

Also, in addition to a few old partners, there are also several young people in the list of coaching teams submitted by Ancelotti, such as his son David Ancelotti, his prospective son-in-law Minoflk, who is the son of Ancelotti's right-hand assistant nutritionist Abaldi, and Francesque Mauri, the son of physical coach Giovani Mauri, is the team's No. 2 physical coach.

So, many times, this kind of relationship is complicated and complicated.

In addition, Redondo also said that after receiving another request from Ancelotti, Real Madrid finally decided to serve as Ancelotti's assistant coach after several considerations and became the link between the coaching staff, management and the locker room.

After hearing this, Zidane nodded politely at Ancelotti, but his expression was somewhat helpless.

Only a very small number of people knew that Zidane was actually driven to the shelves by Florentino and forced to take office. Otherwise, with the French legendary character, he would have to live happily for a while.

Ancelotti and Zidane are also quite familiar with each other. They worked together for a while in Juventus and later contacted each other frequently. Therefore, when they recommended to Florentino, they thought of Zidane the first thing they thought of.

This time it was fulfilling his wish.

After everyone talked about a few specific issues, Florentino finally arrived late.

...

"I think that after I came to Real Madrid, the first thing I need to do is to change the impact of the departure of the former head coach on this team. He is very successful in Real Madrid, and his departure will inevitably bring some insecurity to the players. They will worry about their position and situation, and we need to make them feel at ease as soon as possible."

Ancelotti mentioned the first major thing he had to do after taking over Real Madrid.

"So, I need to establish a friendship with them as soon as possible. I will talk to them one by one after the start of the season, tell them openly and honestly about their specific ideas and ideas, as well as my positioning for them. In addition, I also need to establish a team leader."

Florentino looked at Redondo, Valdano and Zidane, and everyone nodded at the same time.

"What specific candidate do you have?" Florentino asked directly without saying anything.

This is also the cleverness of Real Madrid chairman, who is testing Ancelotti.

"I think there are three people to consider," Ancelotti replied.

"Yang Yang, there is no doubt that he should be the leader of the team on the court. As far as I know, he doesn't talk much, but he always does his best in his work. He is the most diligent and hardworking player in the team and the most fighting spirit. I think there is such a leader who can urge the entire team in games and training."

Ancelotti's words were not aimless.

Two years since Yang Yang joined Real Madrid, the atmosphere of this Real Madrid has undergone earth-shaking changes. It seems that it is full of superstars, but it is not as lazy and slack as a superstar team. Instead, everyone is nervous and plays very hard in every game, even the substitute lineup is like this.

This is a gene, an atmosphere.

Some people say that this is brought by Benitez. This is certainly true, but the players must accept it.

It’s like when Benitez was training on Wednesday when he was coaching, everyone felt that Real Madrid superstars would not endure so much and would definitely rebel, but they found that Real Madrid superstars not only took it, but also benefited a lot from it.

It can be said that this incident completely subverted the outside world's impression of Real Madrid's locker room, making everyone realize that they are no longer a group of casual masters, but a group of players.

Although Benitez brought about this change, it was definitely inseparable from Yang Yang's support.

Let me ask, the team's top superstar, Florentino's core candidate is so hard, what reason do others have to slack off?

So, from the very beginning, Ancelotti decided that Yang Yang would be the leader of Real Madrid.

The leader of the locker room was Captain Casillas.

"He is a standard Madridist, from ten to twenty to thirty, he has been playing for Real Madrid. He is the banner of the city and plays a vital role in Real Madrid. He represents many people who devote their entire lives to Real Madrid. In him, the inheritance of Real Madrid's spirit can be seen."

Everyone present also basically recognized Ancelotti's judgment, and Casillas would be the leader of the team's locker room.

"The last one is Ramos. We all know that he is the team's deputy captain and the future captain. He has a very strong personal charm. He is never afraid or anxious. He is always positive and energetic. He can transmit his own strength to others. His body represents the blood and courage of Real Madrid's spirit."

When Florentino and others heard this, they all looked at each other for a while and all noticed the signals in the other party's eyes. Ancelotti obviously did make some efforts to coach Real Madrid.

The three leaders he established seem to be nothing special, or others can choose, but he gives different positionings, which represents his familiarity and understanding of Real Madrid.

More importantly, his words made Real Madrid management believe that he could bring stability to the team.

For Real Madrid now, stability can achieve results because the team's strength is there.

"I want you to give me Yang Yang's contact information as soon as possible. I know he is on vacation, but I can't wait to talk to him about the future, the team and the locker room." Ancelotti said jokingly.

He is a shrewd person and he knows very well that if he wants to coach at Real Madrid, he must first get Yang Yang's support.

Even, he can offend any Real Madrid player except Yang Yang.

Without Yang Yang's support, he would not be able to stay in this team for a long time.

Fortunately, Ancelotti had a rough chat with Yang Yang before, and he could talk to each other. He also knew that Florentino and others had asked Yang Yang for their opinions, and he must have received a positive response so that he could sit here.

"No more phone calls." Florentino shook his head.

"What?"
