Whenever South American football is mentioned, the first word that comes to mind is always "genius". However, in Diego Milito's life creed, this word has never been associated with him. He only started his career at the age of 20.
, the number of goals scored in a single season in the first three years was in single digits - if someone predicted that Diego Milito would one day win the La Liga Golden Boot when he was 23 years old, I am afraid no one would believe it.
In the summer of 2002, his brother Gabriel Milito, who was 2 years younger than Diego, was the first to receive an invitation from a European team and immediately joined Zaragoza. Half a year later, the 24-year-old Diego finally came to the ocean.
The invitation from the other side was only for the English League One team Crystal Palace. Although Diego Milito chose to go alone without hesitation and scored 9 goals in 13 games in half a year, it was not enough for him to attract the top players in Europe.
League managers.
After returning to the Argentine League, Diego Milito was obviously no longer satisfied with the small stage. He was determined to pursue the national team and top honors, and knew that the best way out was to play in Europe.
Subsequently, Milito performed well in the Italian Serie B on behalf of the Genoa team. However, no one still thought that this player could have a great future. At this time, Leon appeared, and the Chinese head coach led the Argentinian.
Arrive in Gijon, and then, a brand new Milito appears!
During the season he came to Sporting Gijon, the whole of Spain and the whole of Europe knew the name of this Argentine striker.
As one of the most stable goalscorers in La Liga, and the La Liga Golden Boot in the 2004/2005 season, Diego Milito is definitely the darling of the transfer market, including La Liga giants Barcelona and Premier League giants Liverpool.
Many wealthy clubs have extended olive branches to the Argentinian.
Catalonia's Mundo Deportivo even reported that Diego Milito had accepted an invitation from Barcelona and the two sides were discussing contract issues.
***********
Gijon.
Milito's residence is a garden apartment. Milito watched his children playing in the garden with a smile on his face, and then calmed down to think about things.
Although the statement of "World Sports News" is not entirely true, one thing is true, that is, he did receive an invitation from Barcelona, and his agent also persuaded him to join Barcelona. However, Milito is still hesitant.
In fact, even Milito himself doesn’t know what he is hesitating about. The salary package offered by Barcelona is good. It is a high salary that he could not get at Sporting Gijon. Barcelona is a La Liga giant. Now this Barcelona team is called the Dream Team.
The second team is on the rise and everything looks good, but Milito is really hesitant.
"Honey, what are you thinking about?" The wife came over and hugged Milito and kissed him on the cheek.
"How about we go to Barcelona?" Milito asked.
Before the wife could answer, the cell phone rang.
Milito's eyes widened when he saw the caller number.
He waved gently to signal his wife to be quiet, and then answered the phone.
"Diego, it's me." The familiar and long-lost voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Sir!" Diego Milito said excitedly.
"Are you willing to come to Inter Milan and accept a new challenge?"
There were no polite greetings, and there was no need for long speeches about bright prospects and blueprints. The person on the phone spoke concisely and to the point.
Diego Milito's eyes were filled with excitement and he said loudly, "I do, coach!"
This call from Leon made Milito realize the reason why he had been hesitating. Perhaps, he had been waiting, waiting for the call of the man who changed his destiny...
"Very good, Diego. Then the Inter Milan club will contact Sporting Gijon to start the transfer. Someone will also contact you to discuss personal remuneration." Li Ang said happily. The old club gave him face like this, which made him feel good.
Very happy too.
"Okay, sir."
Diego Milito was requested by Li Ang by name, and the player himself has agreed to come. Personal treatment is not an issue. Moratti has always been very generous in treating players.
Just like that, with one phone call from Li Ang, Inter Milan's first transfer deal in the summer of 2007 was finalized.
***********
That afternoon, a fax was placed on the desk of Sporting Gijon chairman Manuel Arango.
Inter Milan's faxed offer for Diego Milito.
Picking up this quotation, the expression on Manuel Arango's face kept changing, ranging from shock, anger, and confusion, and finally turned into an unclear sigh.
The negotiations between Inter Milan and Sporting Gijon on the joining of Diego Milito are progressing at a slow pace. The main reason is that Sporting Gijon saw that it was Li Ang who sent the invitation to Diego Milito and knew that they could not keep Diego Milito.
Trusted.
Even if Barcelona is poaching Milito, Sporting Gijon may be able to struggle and try to keep Milito. However, with the poaching from Liang, Sporting Gijon knows that they cannot keep Diego Milito no matter what.
Now, no one knows about Li Ang's prestige in Sporting Gijon. Although Li Ang has left Sporting Gijon for two years, there are still legends about him here. He has great respect for the players of Sporting Gijon, especially those who have experienced the 2005
The influence of the players who won the Triple Crown in 2016 has not faded due to the passage of time, nor has it faded due to the decline of Sporting Gijon in the past two seasons. On the contrary, it will make many Sporting Gijon players
Hong people miss Li Ang even more.

On July 9, 2007, Inter Milan's official website announced that the team had reached an agreement with La Liga club Sporting Gijon on the transfer of Diego Milito. The La Liga Golden Boot winner two seasons ago will
Joined Inter Milan from Sporting Gijon for a high price of 26 million euros.
This is explosive news. The Spanish side did not expect Diego Milito to go to Inter Milan at all, because all previous signs seemed to suggest that Diego Milito's future was in Barcelona. Now, Diego Milito has
Joining Inter Milan without warning really shocked many people.
However, if you think about it carefully, it was Inter Milan who invited Milito, and it was Li Ang who could handle Milito so quickly and without warning. Perhaps only Li Ang, who brought Milito from Italy to Sporting Gijon, could do it.
.
After getting Milito, Inter Milan's front line will include Adriano, Aguero, Borriello and Milito, with four shooters. This configuration seems a little thin, but... considering
With Adriano's strong physical fitness, other players seem to be able to compete for the position of another starting forward.
