Back in the office, Li Ang immediately ordered Fernandez to contact Real Madrid and immediately sign a fax agreement to finalize the matter.
He also did this to prevent long nights and nightmares.
Both Fernandez and Parler looked surprised. They knew the club's financial situation, but they didn't expect that the president would agree to spend 300,000 euros to facilitate this deal. How could the president agree to go through the trouble with Li Ang?
However, although I don't understand, since the chairman and the head coach have agreed, as assistants, they can only go and work as instructed.
"Mata seems to be underage," Parler suddenly said.
Li Ang frowned and forgot about this incident.
For Li Ang, both clubs have approved this player deal. There are no problems at the club level.
However, there is still a problem that needs to be solved, and that is the attitude of the players themselves.
There is no problem with Parada. Parada is over 18 years old and signed a professional contract with Sporting Gijon. Sporting Gijon has the right to handle player transfer matters. Of course, Parada himself
They will definitely agree to go to Real Madrid. This is exactly what their family dreams of.
The other side of this deal, Juan Mata, needs to pay attention. Mata is not yet a minor. He is currently signing a youth contract with Real Madrid. According to Spanish football regulations, young players must be at least 17 years old.
Only then can you sign a professional contract.
Those under the age of seventeen can only sign youth contracts. In fact, this kind of contract is not very binding. The player's personal wishes are the only criterion for determining the player's transfer.
For example, if a certain football team goes up to seduce Mata and persuade Mata to defect, if Mata agrees, even if Real Madrid wants to stop it, there is no good way.
So why are there no football clubs trying to seduce these teenage players from Real Madrid? On the one hand, it’s because that’s Real Madrid. Being able to play in Real Madrid’s youth echelon is almost one of the best stages for Spanish players. How could they possibly like it?
Among other teams, there are very few teams in Spain that dare to risk offending Real Madrid by privately luring Real Madrid players to 'defect'.
If you dare to anger Real Madrid, this Big Mac will teach you how to behave in minutes!
Therefore, this is why Li Ang has a good relationship with this group of players from Real Madrid. However, Li Ang and Sporting Gijon have not considered directly checking the reasons for Martin's recruitment. On the one hand, everyone is very realistic and has a good relationship with you. However, absolutely
I won't leave Real Madrid, which has a bright future, and go to a small club just because of this. In addition, Sporting Gijon doesn't dare to anger Real Madrid.
So, now comes the problem.
From the club level, Real Madrid agrees to Mata's transfer, so there is no possibility of enmity with Real Madrid.
Now it depends on the personal opinion of the player himself, namely Juan Mata.
*************
However, Li Ang waved his hand and urged Fernandez to quickly confirm by fax with Real Madrid and settle the matter first. The latter went to work on this matter with doubts.
"This Mata, are you sure you can persuade him to come to Gijon?" Parler asked immediately upon seeing this.
Li Ang hesitated for a moment. If it were other players, such as Callejon, he would still be confident in persuading him. However, Mata, thinking about this kid's somewhat fucked-up character, Li Ang really didn't have much confidence in his heart.
.
This kid is not easy to worry about.
"I'll make a call." Li Ang said, and he directly used the landline, entered Mata's number, and dialed.
"Do you remember the number?" Parler asked in surprise.
"I remember the contact information of all the players I have coached." Li Ang pointed to his head.
Parler took a deep breath, this was awesome.
"Hey, Juan, it's me." After the call was connected, Li Ang had just opened his mouth, and his expression was unusually wonderful.
Parler also had a shocked expression on his face. He looked at Li Ang and wanted to speak, but closed his mouth because the phone was on speakerphone. This was an unexpected situation and no one noticed that the speakerphone was on.
,So, this call is equivalent to a live broadcast.
Li Ang waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. But he was surprised in his heart, very surprised.
"Boss, I know it's you." As soon as the call was connected, Li Ang had just announced his home, and Mata said over there, "I have your number in my phone, and I also know the purpose of your call.
agreed."
"Uh, I'm talking about Sporting Gijon..."
"Yes, it's Sporting Gijon. I agreed to go there." Mata said, "I know about it."
Parler was stunned. At this time, Fernandez, who had gone to confirm with Real Madrid via fax, came back and was about to speak. Parler stretched out a finger and shushed. The latter immediately closed his mouth and listened.
He was also shocked during the live phone call.
"Juan, are you sure you have thought clearly and agreed to come to Gijon?" Li Ang asked again, he wanted to confirm.
"Of course." Mata said, "I confirm it."
*************
"What about your family? What did they say?" Li Ang asked. Signing players under the age of 17 is very troublesome. Not only do the players themselves need to agree, but their families' opinions are also important. Li Ang doesn't want Mata to come.
After he died, his family members said he had "abducted a child."
"Mr. Li Ang." A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Mr. Mata?" Li Ang asked in surprise. He didn't expect that Mata's father was also there.
"Yes, it's me, we talked on the phone before." Mata's father said with a smile.
Li Ang also laughed. Yes, they had talked on the phone before. At that time, Mata violated team discipline. Li Ang sent Mata to the next echelon for training. Mata's father was very angry. The two of them talked on the phone.
There was a quarrel, and the ending was very interesting. About half a month later, the gentleman called again and took the initiative to apologize to Li Ang and express his gratitude to Li Ang for his strict discipline of his son. The two people can be regarded as 'no acquaintance without fighting'.
"We made a deal with Real Madrid, the most important of which is Mata coming to Sporting Gijon." Li Ang said, "I want to confirm one thing, what is your attitude towards Mata coming to Sporting Gijon?"
"I agree!" said Mata's father.
Li Ang was surprised. He didn't expect Mata's father to agree to answer so happily.
"Mr. Mata, are you sure?"
"Of course." Mata's father said. At this moment, a cell phone ringing came from the other end of the phone, "Sorry, I'll answer the phone first."
"Of course, please do."
Half a minute later, Mata's father came back, "We received a call from Real Madrid informing us that we can go to Gijon."
"Dad, where is my phone charger?"
"Third from the left, closet in the lower right corner."
Hearing the conversation between the father and son on the other end of the phone, Li Ang asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"Pack our things, we are ready to leave for Gijon." Mata's father said, and then shouted to his son, "Juan, you told me not to use my razor."
Li Ang could imagine the busy father and son over there, and he was both happy and a little confused, "Mr. Mata, I want to ask you what made you make this decision. You know, Sporting Gijon is now just
A Segunda División team…”
"Because you are there, I can rest assured that my son is under your control. I understand my son. He is a genius, but his character needs to be sharpened. I understood something from what happened last time. You are indeed doing it for me.
Hello son, you are a truly outstanding coach. The most important thing is that Juan admires you very much. I have never seen someone have such an attitude after repairing him." Mata's father smiled.
Said, "Mr. Li Ang, I have to pack my luggage here. See you in Gijon. I am very happy that my son will serve under you again."
"Well, see you in Gijon." Li Ang said, "I am also very happy to coach Mata again."
After the call ended, Li Ang felt a little dazed. This was because there was a warm current in his heart that made him feel uneasy.
'Because you are there and my son is in your hands, I can rest assured.'
For the father of a young player to say these words to a head coach is a huge amount of trust.
And Juan Mata, a sixteen-year-old kid, is willing to give up the environment at Real Madrid and come to Sporting Gijon to join him. This is also a kind of trust.
What's more, this trust came unexpectedly, it can be said to be a bit sudden. It is even more touching.
As for Li Ang, he was moved by this trust at this moment.
Li Ang was slightly absent-minded, then he put down the microphone and smiled at his two assistants, "Okay, everything is OK."
Fernandez and Parler were shocked and speechless. They really didn't expect that a player's parents would trust a coach so much. He came from Real Madrid to a small club like Gijon.
They looked at Li Ang with expressions of worship.
"I can't believe that you have such prestige among the young players at Real Madrid." Fernandez said with emotion.
"Yes, the players' parents trust you so much. Only now do I understand the gap between us and you." Parler also said with envy and sigh.
Li Ang smiled and said in his heart, what the fuck, is he pretending to be cool again?
He really didn't intend to use this phone to show off. Who knew the speakerphone was on?
However, he himself had to admit that he could tell by looking at the attitude of these two assistants towards him now.
