"Boss, so that is true? Are you leaving Inter Milan?" Juan Mata asked.
Li Ang hummed: "Yes, if there are no major changes..."
"Boss..." Mata on the other end of the phone was a little silent.
"I'm not leaving right away, there are still two games left." Li Ang said comfortingly.
"Boss, which football club are you going to?" Mata said, "Take me there."
Li Ang was touched by these words. He smiled and said, "I don't have a new job yet. I want to take a break."
Hearing that Li Ang said that he had not decided on a new club, but wanted to rest for a while, Mata felt much better. The boss was not a 'traitor', and he was not tempted to leave by other clubs. He really wanted to rest. Originally, for
The young man who was a little frustrated that Li Ang didn't say hello to him in advance and wanted to take him to the new football club immediately became happy.
"Which team you go to in the future, don't forget to ask me to go with you." Mata said again, his tone serious.
"Little Mata..." Li Ang said, "You are a great player who can create brilliance on any team and under any coach..."
Mata interrupted Li Ang and said seriously: "I have said it before, boss, from the time I left Real Madrid to go to Sporting Gijon, it is because you are my head coach. As long as you coach again in the future, please
Take me there, I am willing to keep playing football under you! As long as you are still coaching, I will keep playing for you until I can no longer play and retire, boss..."
Mata's voice became lower and lower, and there was a whimpering sound. The kid was crying. He couldn't bear to leave Li Ang. He was sad when he thought that the leader was leaving Inter Milan.
Li Ang was silent. He didn't expect Mata to have such deep feelings for him. He was moved. He is not a cold-blooded animal. He also has feelings for these players. He has great sympathy for this little guy who has followed him since Real Madrid.
As the media said, Mata is his 'godson'.
Li Ang nodded: "When I have enough rest and come back to work, you can help me win the championship!"
"It's a deal, boss," Mata said happily.
***********
Although both Li Ang and Inter Milan issued statements that the two parties broke up happily and that Li Ang wanted to take a break to spend time with his family, the news that Li Ang will leave Inter Milan after the end of this season has a huge and far-reaching impact on Inter Milan.
of.
In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter Milan's 35-year-old veteran defender Marco Materazzi suddenly expressed his desire to retire after the season.
"I suddenly realized that I am already thirty-five years old. For a defender, I may be able to play for two more years. However, now I suddenly feel that it is time to say goodbye. If we can win two more championships this season
, my career can be said to be perfect, so I am considering retiring after the season."
Materazzi is already 35 years old and is no longer an important member of Inter Milan's competitive side. Among Inter Milan's central defenders, Samuel and Chivu are the starters, in addition to Burdisso and Bonucci.
, Materazzi’s most important role for Inter Milan now is in the locker room. He is the team deputy appointed by Li Ang. Compared with Zanetti, who has a gentle personality, Materazzi has a tough personality in the locker room.
Different effects.
At the age of thirty-five, Materazzi has an important position in the locker room. As the player himself said, Materazzi can continue to play for two years. Now he suddenly announced that he will retire after the end of the season. This is really surprising.
.
Although Materazzi said that if the team won the subsequent UEFA Champions League finals and Italian Cup finals, his honor would be complete, so he considered retiring. However, considering that it was just revealed that Liang will retire after the end of the season.
With the news of leaving Inter Milan, it is still difficult for people not to connect the two things.
Materazzi is Li Ang's favorite player. Among the original Inter Milan players, Materazzi was Li Ang's staunchest supporter. Now, Li Ang is leaving Inter Milan and Materazzi is also retiring.
.
Therefore, whether it is "Gazzetta dello Sport", "Gazzetta dello Sport" or "Gazzetta dello Sport", they regard Materazzi's retirement as one of the far-reaching impacts of Li Ang's departure from Inter Milan.
"... When the UEFA Champions League final with Manchester United was about to come, Inter Milan suddenly fell into turmoil... It can be seen from Materazzi's retirement that Li Ang's departure will have a huge impact on this team.
The impact of the shock is only the impact that has been exposed. There are bigger and deeper impacts that are still incalculable. It is really difficult for people to be optimistic about Inter Milan’s performance in Moscow..."
***********
The entire Inter Milan team took a flight that afternoon and headed to Moscow, the capital of Russia, the final venue of the UEFA Champions League.
However, the media is obviously not optimistic about the Nerazzurri's future at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium.
Mainly because the news that Li Ang was about to 'break up' with Inter Milan was suddenly exposed, which really hurt morale.
Li Ang is the builder of this blue-black army, he is the king of this team and the soul of this team!!!
It would be an exaggeration to say that this Inter Milan is Li Ang's Inter Milan. This statement can also win the recognition of many people.
Mata, Carlos, Modric, and Diego Milito were discovered and trained by Li Ang, and they are direct descendants he brought from Sporting Gijon.
He introduced players such as Samuel, Evra, Maicon, Aguero and Bonucci, and led these players from unknowns to first-class stars and even top stars.
Adriano? It was Li Ang who saved him from decadence. Adriano regarded Li Ang as his 'father'.
Muntari, Arshavin, Deco and the young Toni Kroos came here for the name of Leon.
Even the 'natives' who were at Inter Milan before, whether it is Cesar or captain Zanetti and other players, they all have great trust in Li Ang and respect and even love him very much.
It can be said that this team has been deeply imprinted with Li Ang, and all the players have a deep relationship with him.
Moreover, Inter Milan has won the European Championship and three consecutive Serie A championships. This is a real team of champions, and the players are real champions. It can even be said that some players are already proud soldiers, and only Li Ang can suppress them.
If you can hold them back and convince them, even if the training is very intense, these players can grit their teeth and persevere without daring to 'zao'.
This is the authority and aura that belongs to a top championship coach!
This is even more of Li Ang’s personality charm.
He is the soul of this team.
Now that Li Ang is leaving Inter Milan, how can the players not be affected?!!!
***********
On the flight to Moscow, Li Ang sat in front with the coaching staff, and his assistants were communicating in low voices.
Obviously, the coaching staff also noticed the team's depressive atmosphere.
"That's not okay," Banderas said.
"Damn the Sun." Mihajlovic said bitterly. He believed that all this was a conspiracy by the English media to disrupt Inter Milan's morale.
"That old man Ferguson must be very happy now," Stramaccioni said.
Stramaccioni was once a football player who played as a defender, but he retired early due to a serious knee injury. He later became a football coach and worked at various levels at AZ Sports, Romulea, and Crotone.
In the winter, he failed to apply for the position of head coach of the Inter Milan youth team, but he was lucky enough to be spotted by Li Ang and joined Li Ang's coaching staff. Although he mainly did some odd data collection work, for this
For the 32-year-old young Italian coach, this can be said to be a very rare and precious opportunity: Stramaccioni admired Li Ang so much that he even imitated some of Li Ang's movements when he spoke, which also became Pioneer's reputation.
An interesting incident at the Nenati training base.
When the assistants were talking about this, Li Ang did not speak, he was a little distracted.
