Chapter 395 Spain's Star of Hope Chapter 1 K League 7/14
The next morning, Li Ang went out to get the newspaper.
The neighbors greeted him happily and held up the newspapers in their hands. Needless to say, those were the words of Gijon's media praising Sporting Gijon and Leon.
Li Ang smiled and waved to thank him.
After getting the newspaper back, Li Ang ate his simple breakfast and read the newspaper.
Turning to the sports page, the first thing he saw was "Marca". Valencia lost, and the happiest people in Madrid were the people in Madrid. Therefore, "Marca" continued to praise Sporting Gijon and Liang regardless of past suspicions. Obviously
, although Sporting Gijon ranked second in the league after winning, in the eyes of Real Madrid people, the defending champion Valencia is the real enemy. Although Sporting Gijon just defeated Real Madrid, Real Madrid still
They do not regard Sporting Gijon as a league opponent, and they do not think that this newly promoted team will continue to perform so well.
"Marca" praised Sporting Gijon, especially Carlos, and hailed him as Spain's star of hope. This media has forgotten their previous criticism and attack on Carlos, especially
In last season's Copa del Rey final, Carlos used "means" to cause Zidane to be sent off with a red card. At that time, the media in Madrid scolded Carlos. They criticized that "a player with such despicable behavior will have limited future achievements"...
...Now, Carlos has become what they call Spain's 'star of hope'.
"Marca" praised this: ...Juan Carlos, this young man who is about to turn seventeen, is undoubtedly the biggest discovery of La Liga this season. He is the biggest barrier in Sporting Gijon's midfield. Now
, this young man is even better, he begins to show his offensive talents...Spain's star of hope shines in Gijon...
At the end of the article, "Marca" reporter Philp did not forget to remind Real Madrid to poach players, "...such an outstanding local player should best wear the white jersey of Real Madrid..."
Go fuck yourself, if you want to poach me, just keep dreaming!
Li Ang cursed!
***********
Then, the Catalan media "World Sports" also praised Sporting Gijon. They were simply too satisfied with Liang, who they considered to be an 'old friend of Barcelona'. Liang's team was now massacred.
Real Madrid, this time they beat Valencia again. It can be said that they blocked Barcelona's championship rivals one by one.
"Daily Sports" also praised Sporting Gijon for now ranking second in La Liga. This is a great achievement and something worth celebrating...
Li Ang curled his lips. Although it was a compliment, he read a strong sense of 'ignorance' from the Catalan media. You know, Sporting Gijon is now ranked second in the league. Sporting Gijon's points
It reached 19 points, and the leader Barcelona had 26 points. Although the 7-point difference was enough for Barcelona to sit back and relax, it can also be seen from here that Barcelona did not look at Sporting Gijon at all. They did not feel that Sporting Gijon had any interest in them.
Threat, if Real Madrid were ranked second, 7 points behind Barcelona, do you think Barcelona could still be so calm?!
Well, although Barcelona is indeed qualified to ignore Sporting Gijon due to its strength, Li Ang is still very unhappy to be ignored like this.
What made Li Ang even more unhappy was that after praising Carlos, "Daily Sports" said that if Carlos had better skills, he would be qualified to wear the Barcelona jersey...
Damn it, I have better skills and am qualified to go to Barcelona.
Why? What are you talking about?
Li Ang was a little depressed.
Later, I saw other media without those messy sense of superiority. They all praised Sporting Gijon, thinking that this newly promoted team ranked second in La Liga, which is great, and praised Li Ang for his performance in the duel with Ranieri.
He has a great upper hand and praises Sporting Gijon for creating a youth storm in Spanish football.
Li Ang felt better after seeing such reports.
The local media reports in Gijon made him feel even happier.
***********
I laughed when I saw the headline "Carlos! Carlos!! Carlos!!!" on "Voice of Gijon". Needless to say, this must be Mitra's idea. This reporter is a very thoughtful person.
, is also a very smart person, otherwise, when Li Ang had just coached the Sporting Gijon first team and faced the ridicule and doubts of many media, this person would not have been the first to offer him an olive branch.
Seeing the words under the headline about congratulating Carlos on his birthday, Li Ang slapped his head, that kid is having a birthday.
He’s about to turn seventeen!
Li Ang knocked on the table. It was time to give Carlos a real professional contract. According to the regulations of the Spanish Football Association, players must be at least seventeen years old before they can sign a formal professional contract. Before the age of seventeen, they can only sign youth contracts, and
Youth contracts have very little binding force, which is why Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger was able to take advantage of the situation last year and lure Cesc Fabregas to Arsenal.
Although Li Ang is sure that Carlos will not be poached by other teams, giving this kid a professional contract as a birthday gift is the best gift since he is seventeen years old, isn't it?!
***********
Just then, the phone rang.
"Hello, hello, beautiful Benita, are you okay?" Liang was in a good mood and joked with Benita Manuel, the general manager of the club who called.
Benita was surprised. Since the last incident, this guy had been avoiding her. Why was he so flexible and even a little frivolous this time?
"Honey, can't I call you?" Benita said with a roll of her beautiful eyes.
Li Ang seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on him and calmed down immediately. The girl on the other end of the phone was not someone to be joked about casually. It was too late for him to hide. Li Ang immediately raised his hands in surrender, "I was wrong, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Yes! Mr. General Manager, is there anything on the phone?"
"No coward!" Benita gritted her silver teeth and spat, "Of course there is something wrong!"
"Is it about Carlos?" Li Ang immediately guessed Benita's purpose.
Carlos can now be said to have become famous in one battle. Yes, Carlos performed well in the past and has nicknames such as 'Gattuso of Gijon' and 'Successor of Albelda'. However, a pure
As a defensive player, in the Spanish football world that advocates offense, the attention is destined not to be too high. However, it is different now. His two wonderful goals against Valencia made Carlos famous almost overnight. Now, major players
Important pages of the media are filled with photos of Carlos scoring goals, and various comments and articles praise the young player.
It is said that after watching the game live, the head coach of the Spanish national team, Aragones, also praised Carlos a few times when asked by the media. You know, Aragones has a strict mouth.
It's so hard to hear such praise, so much so that some media have begun to speculate when Carlos will be able to join the Spanish adult national team!
This is incredible!
You know, Carlos is not yet 17 years old. There has never been a Spanish international player under 17 years old in the history of Spanish football.
So, now, Carlos is popular, very popular!
While he is becoming famous, I believe that many teams are starting to pay attention to this young man from Sporting Gijon, especially since they know that Carlos is not yet 17 years old, and he must have only signed a youth contract with Sporting Gijon. This is a player who can go
What a poacher!
Therefore, it is obvious that Benita is also anxious, and the most likely reason for calling is to discuss Carlos' professional contract issue.
***********
"Yes." When they started talking about business, Benita said seriously, "According to the information I got, many teams are interested in Carlos, but we only signed a youth contract with him now, which is very detrimental to us.
"
Benita didn't know the relationship between Carlos and Leon. She didn't know that this young player could be said to be Leon's brother-in-law. Therefore, her worries were justified. She was worried that Carlos would not be able to withstand other clubs, especially some big clubs.
The temptation of football clubs and even wealthy football clubs leads them to choose another branch.
"Don't worry, Carlos won't go to another football club." Li Ang said.
"Why are you so confident?" Benita said anxiously, "Don't think that just because you have trained a player, he will definitely listen to you. When faced with enough benefits, he has no reason not to be tempted."
"Okay." Li Ang didn't want to talk about another aspect of his relationship with Carlos, he said, "Then I will do as you say. In three days, when he turns seventeen, he will sign a professional contract."
"OK!" Benita nodded, "I will carefully consider the details of the contract. We must try our best to retain this young man."
"Well, the contract can be as generous as possible." Li Ang said. Anyway, Carlos's salary is paid by the club. If he can get more for this kid, he doesn't mind helping. After all, he is one of his own, and it can't be said that Li Ang has any
Selfishly, with Carlos's current talent and potential, he deserves a generous salary. Of course, this salary is only relative to his peers. It cannot be compared with veterans like Hierro and Albertini.
Than.
After hanging up Benita's call, Li Ang rubbed his temples. He read a piece of information from Benita's call, that is, many teams had indeed begun to pursue Carlos.
***********
Just when Li Ang got up to pack his things and go to the Malaao training base, his cell phone rang again.
Li Ang was stunned for a moment when he saw the caller number.
The call came from the team's deputy Albertini.
A call from Demi?!
What's matter?
Li Ang was surprised and answered the phone.
