"Do you know who that man is?" Mark asked Mascherano in the stands.

"It seems Redondo, he actually plays here." Mascherano's reaction was not as expected by Mark: "Did you bring me here to see him? But I don't think I can make any progress with his help."

This may be because Mascherano played for River Plate, and he had no good feelings for Redondo, who refused to participate in the national team competition. Perhaps it was because Mascherano liked Redondo so much that he did this.

Some people say that only Argentina fans are qualified to accuse Redondo, Real Madrid fans do not, and Milan fans do not.

Since rejecting Bilardo as a teenager, the rejection of the national team's call has happened several times. Each time, each has its own reasons, but every time it is because of Redondo's proud personality. Especially in 1998, he left the national team because he was unwilling to obey Passarella's "scaling order", because "I didn't play football with my hair". In 2000, Bardano once pleaded with him on behalf of his friend Bielsa, but Redondo's answer was: I cannot perform at the best in the club and the national team at the same time. The position should be left to young people. Argentina has never lacked stars.

Although Mark doesn't know whether Mascherano is a Redondo fan, if Mark wants ordinary players, they will use their own position as a template. They will have an idol player in the same position. Although such an idol is not the only one, at least they should have a certain position.

"Don't you want to be a player like Redondo?" Mark asked curiously.

"I can never be a player like Redondo. He is an artist, and I am not," Mascherano said with some inferiority. "The head coach told me that my template should be Simeone."

Mark knew that Mascherano should still be full of resentment towards Redondo. In fact, Mark also had some opinions about Redondo to the point of not being able to represent the Argentina team before. However, Mark forgives Redondo later because Mark is not a radical fan.

Before the 2002 World Cup, in an interview with the "Ole", Redondo mentioned his guilt towards the national team for the first time: Maybe I have done too much to the club, but loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved at the same time. It is sad that it has not won the world championship with the Argentina national team, but I have no regrets. It requires a lot of back and forth. Once a man makes a decision, no matter what the consequences are, he can only accept it.

There are still Argentine fans who hate Redondo because he abandoned the national honor for his hair. But who knows that when Real Madrid won the 2000 European Champions League championship, Redondo shed tears in the locker room, not because he was excited to win the European championship, but because of the national team he cruelly rejected.

Redondo said that he was right. Argentina has never lacked genius. When the prince abandoned Argentina again and again, the dream of blue and white became the cinnabar that could never be erased on his chest.

The reason why Mark was able to find Redondo was entirely because of a report from the Ass. After nearly half a year of disappearing from people's eyes, Redondo once again became the protagonist of the news. On November 25, 2004, Spanish "Ass" reported that 35-year-old Redondo was in a Madrid-based Gacarita United. Every weekend, he would appear on the stadium on the side of the airport to perform for the city where Guti was born. Gacarita Fan United

, in fact, is an Argentine immigrant. The relatives of Redondo's "teammates" in Argentina do not believe that their family can join Redondo. After seeing the photos, Mark had the idea of ​​finding Redondo, but at that time Mark did not have any extra time. After all, Mark was still playing away games at that time, and now Mark can finally have free time to meet the Argentine prince.

But Mark heard that Redondo has not been playing for this club for much time, because Redondo signed a short-term contract with this small club, with the contract deadline until December 31.

That is to say, if Redondo cannot obtain a new contract before No. 31, he will leave the club. Redondo has already spoken before, and if there is no contract that he is satisfied with, he will choose to retire.

Judging from Mark's performance on the stadium, his physical injuries have recovered well. Although he may not be able to participate in the top league, Redondo can go to West Asia and the American League to hunt for gold.

The reason why Redondo chose to play for a satellite city that is very close to Madrid is believed to be not because of money, because Mark knows that with Redondo's reputation, if he joins other leagues, he can make more money.

Redondo's game soon ended, and Redondo was with his teammates to leave the stadium. In this game, Redondo also defeated all sides and staged a hat trick.

After seeing Redondo's old and firm performance, Mark couldn't help but secretly exclaimed. Mark had such an idea in his mind. If Redondo had never had any major injuries, I wonder what kind of performance he would have been and whether he would have played for Real Madrid all the time.

Will it help Argentina achieve good results in the World Cup? But all this is just Mark's guess. Of course it cannot happen, because although Mark has a magical necklace, his necklace does not have a backward function.

Redondo was warmly welcomed by local fans after the game. These fans all stepped forward to ask for autographs from Redondo, which shows how popular Redondo is in this team.

"Mr. Fernando, please stay." Mark said to him when he saw Redondo walking towards him.

Redondo obviously saw Mark and Mascherano. Mark was also considered a Madrid celebrity at this time. In the last round of the game, Mark lost two of Mallorca's players alone, which also became a matter that many media scrambled to report.

"Are you Mark?" Redondo asked Mark in confusion.

The fans around also heard Redondo's words. They had not paid attention to Mark when they were watching the game before, and Lei Dong's words also made these fans beat Mark's attention.

They all looked at Mark with curious eyes, as if they were listening to Mark's confession in person. At the same time, these fans also looked at Mascherano beside Mark, and these fans were even more sure of their thoughts.

"Can you talk to you?" Mark said to Redondo, which was considered as accusation of Redondo's words.

But at this moment, these fans seemed to have fallen into madness all of a sudden. Although this is where Guti was born, these fans are not all fans of Real Madrid.

They are all fans of local teams. When supporting local teams, they also have many fans who like Atletico Madrid. This is also because most of these fans are descendants of Argentina, so they naturally cannot let go of Argentine internationals like Mascherano.

"Can you sign me an autograph?" The fans surrounded Mascherano, and at the same time, many female fans also surrounded Mark and asked for an opportunity to take photos with Mark.

"See you in the parking lot later." Redondo saw these fans and surrounded Mark and the other two at once. After completely ignoring him, his idol in the local club, he seemed very embarrassed, so he said to the two of them.

"Okay" Mark had no choice at this time. After enthusiastic fans surrounded him, Mark had no time to clone him. Mark could only meet the requirements of these fans as soon as possible, and then communicate with Redondo again.

After Mark and Mascherano met the fans' requirements, the two also came to the parking lot, but Redondo was talking to someone in his Ferrari sports car.

This person is nothing else, but Cooper, the head coach of Atletico Madrid. Mark didn't know what happened to Cooper when he came here. Originally, Mark didn't want to disturb the conversation between the two, but because of curiosity, Mark wanted to see what the two of them were talking about together.

So Mark took a few steps and came to the middle of the two to eavesdrop on what issues they were discussing.

"Mark, why are you here? Do you want to learn from Fernando?" Cooper said with a smile after seeing Mark and Mascherano coming.

Cooper did not have a stern face like he had before on the training ground. Cooper rarely smiled. Such a move made Mark seem very uncomfortable. Mark didn't know why Cooper suddenly did this.

You should know that Cooper rarely laughs. If Cooper smiles, there are only two possibilities. One is that he is in a good mood, and the other may be that if he is ready to punish you.

Of course, Mark didn't want it to be the second possibility, because there was no problem with Mark coming to see Redondo, because it belonged to Mark himself at the end of the training time. Mark would meet whoever he wanted. As long as Mark could appear on time on the training ground the next day, there would be no problem.

"Mark, the most popular young man in Madrid is now, why are you here to come to me for?" Redondo also asked with a smile at Mark.

"I just hope you can guide my friend. This is Mascherano, who is our new team," Mark said to Redondo, and he also pushed Mascherano out.

Because although Mark also wants to be guided by Redondo, this time Mark came for Mascherano, and Mark also hopes that this honest Argentinian can make good progress.

Mark has a good impression of Mascherano, and Mark also preconceived the idea that Mascherano is his friend. It is naturally no problem for Mark to do some things for the future development of his friends.

"By the way, coach, what are you here for this time?" Mark asked Cooper curiously.

This is better in Europe. Everyone is equal and can ask anything directly. Unlike the Celestial Empire, you can't ask any questions casually. If you ask the coach's matter, it seems like you are disrespectful to the other party.

"I came here because I was going to invite Fernando to join our club as part-time coach," Cooper looked at Redondo and said: "But Fernando didn't seem to accept our suggestion. He needs further consideration, which gives me a headache."

Mark heard what Cooper said, and asked the two of them to help persuade Redondo, trying to make Redondo decide to join the coaching staff of Atletico Madrid as soon as possible.

However, Mark also knew that Redondo was already 35 years old. Although he was positioned as a player and coach, the possibility of his playing field basically did not exist. It should be a name change made by Atletico Madrid's club for Redondo's self-esteem. In fact, Redondo is the coach of Atletico Madrid.

"Fernando, Atletico Madrid is a big family, there are very young players here, just like us, they all need experienced players like you to help us avoid detours, so how about joining us?" Mark said sincerely to Redondo.

At the same time, Mark also poked Mascherano with his arm. Mark meant that Mascherano also said what to write and persuade Redondo. After all, as an Argentine player, Mascherano should speak much better than Mark.

Mark also believes that head coach Cooper should have said a lot of good things to Redondo, and Cooper was able to find Redondo, which means representing Atletico Madrid club, which is to let Cooper play the front station first.

Cooper is also an excellent Argentine coach. Although there is no intersection with Redondo, he is also a fellow villager after all. If Cooper can convince Redondo, then Atletico Madrid can negotiate a contract with Redondo.

The next thing will naturally be much easier, and the board of directors of Atletico Madrid also means this.

The reason they liked Redondo was to make more contributions to the introduction of Argentina players in the future. Redondo still has a certain amount of weight in the hearts of Argentina's young players.

Redondo's whole family is a fan of the ** team. Although Redondo has not played for the ** team, he has a considerable relationship with the ** team. Moreover, Redondo also has many intimate connections with other clubs in Argentina. This is a resource that Atletico Madrid needs very much.

In addition to Simeone, who played for Atletico Madrid before, Atletico Madrid can have two well-known former internationals in Argentina to recruit talents for them.

Of course, this must be with Redondo's agreement. If Redondo does not agree to join, then everything will naturally be difficult to say.

What Redondo is thinking about at this time is what he can bring to Atletico Madrid. If you want to talk about the game, then Redondo believes that he should not be able to display his original strength in a high-level confrontation, so he feels that he cannot bring changes to Atletico Madrid on the stadium.

But under the stadium and on the training ground, Redondo still has this confidence. He is full of confidence in his abilities. He definitely has this ability to help the players of Atletico Madrid become better in their personal technical level.

However, Redondo is also considering the future of joining Atletico Madrid. Although Redondo has had a bad break with the head coach of Real Madrid, after all, the most glorious period of Redondo's career was achieved in Real Madrid. If Redondo joins Real Madrid's arch rival Atletico Madrid, Redondo is still hesitant.

"Fernando, don't hesitate. Please guide us, teach me your experience and take me to the national team." Mascherano also spoke at this time.

Mascherano's words undoubtedly hit Redondo's biggest pain. Redondo's career is perfect. He won almost all the championships a player can win, including league championships and championship cup championships.

As a professional player, Redondo was successful in the club, but as a national player, he failed. Redondo did not achieve any results in the national team, and his performance in the national team can even be said to be dismal.

But he also hopes that the Argentine national team can develop better, and Mascherano's words also touched him. He also knows that Atletico Madrid's intention to find him is to sign some players cheaply in Argentina.

Redondo is not a relative of the owner of the domestic club in Argentina. He does not need to consider it for the owner of the club. He just wants Atletico Madrid to introduce excellent Argentine players to train, the results of the Argentina national team will definitely be good in the future.

And his technical ability can also be inherited, which is a kind of inheritance power, and Redondo was undoubtedly moved.

"Then let my agent talk to the representative of Atletico Madrid," Redondo said at the end.

After all, none of the three people present could sign a contract on behalf of Atletico Madrid because they are not representatives of the club, they are just signing players or signing coaches of the club.

As for the signing of the contract, General Manager Hill still needs to do it. When Cooper agreed to negotiate, Hill immediately followed up on the matter.

And after the two sides held a consultation, Redondo officially signed a player and coach contract, a one-year short-term contract, and Atletico Madrid has priority renewal rights.

Redondo will focus more of his energy on the team's training, unless there is no one in the midfield defensive player of Atletico Madrid.
