Chapter 144 What were you doing when you were nineteen?
While Mendieta's agent Tordela was negotiating a personal contract with Real Madrid, the season was still going on.
Valencia has another goal. They no longer need to compete with other teams, they have to compete with themselves.
In the thirty-sixth round of the league, Valencia faced Espanyol at home.
In this game, the winning team began to replace a large number of main players, letting substitute players who usually don't play much come on.
In the end, they tied with Espanyol 2:2 at home.
After the game, Valencia began negotiations with two players from Real Madrid.
In fact, despite the fact that Arbeloa and Cambiasso are not well-known players now.
But it's not easy to get them to join Valencia.
First of all, Arbeloa only joined Real Madrid last season. He has a good future in the Real Madrid echelon and is very hopeful of being promoted to the B team.
Real Madrid is obviously more attractive to young people than Valencia.
Young people are always vain.
Although Valencia is the league champion, it cannot match the influence of Real Madrid.
Cambiaso's situation is similar to Arbeloa's, but he is slightly better.
Because he has been loaned out by Real Madrid for four consecutive seasons and has not played a game for Real Madrid.
Now he is twenty-two years old and still wandering.
But he will always have illusions about Real Madrid, thinking that after ending this season's loan and returning to Real Madrid, he will get a chance to play in the first team.
In fact, historically speaking, this is indeed the case.
Cambiaso returned to Real Madrid in the 2002-2003 season and became a member of the first team.
However, he only played 41 games in two seasons. After the contract expired, Real Madrid did not choose to renew his contract, and he had no choice but to leave.
The same is true for Arbeloa. He once became the captain of the Real Madrid B team, that is, the Castilla team, but in the end he failed to get a chance in the first team and left Real Madrid for Deportivo La Coruña.
It was not until much later that he transferred back to Real Madrid with his outstanding performance at Liverpool, which was regarded as a successful way to save the country.
To deal with these two players, it is useless for Llorente to go there. Chang Sheng plans to take action himself.
Cambiaso is in Argentina and can only be contacted by phone, but Arbeloa is in Madrid and can be contacted in person.
So Chang Sheng left the training to assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez and Guardiola, and ran to Madrid alone to meet with Arbeloa.
※※※
Arbeloa met the legendary Valencia coach after training.
Why is it legendary?
Because within Real Madrid, there are many legends about this head coach.
The feud between Chang Sheng and Real Madrid is the best material for everyone to gossip in private.
Because Chang Sheng once served as a coach in Real Madrid's echelon, many people here still have an impression of him. If Chang Sheng is not famous, it will be fine, everyone will forget about him over time.
However, Chang Sheng is very famous, and his name is often seen in the media. Then the media continue to hype the grievances between Chang Sheng and Real Madrid, which naturally arouses many people's memories.
As the only Chinese coach in the Real Madrid echelon at that time, Chang Sheng attracted a lot of attention.
Now everyone is talking about Chang Sheng's deeds at the Chamartin training base. First, the coaches said it, and then the players spread it.
Of course Arbeloa also heard about it.
It just becomes more and more distorted as it spreads.
In addition, after defeating Real Madrid three times, many people were unhappy and jealous of Chang Sheng, and demonized Chang Sheng even more.
Until now, Valencia's head coach is almost like a devil in the minds of many young Real Madrid players.
But Chang Sheng appeared in front of Arbeloa with a smile on his face, which made Arbeloa feel strange.
"You are different from the rumors." Arbeloa said with a frown.
Chang Sheng smiled and said, "Why is it different?"
"Uh..." Arbeloa originally planned to tell the truth, but when he thought it might not be polite, he shook his head: "Forget it, I think it's better if you don't listen."
Chang Sheng's smile became even brighter: "It's not a nice thing to say anyway, right?"
Arbeloa nodded: "I didn't say it, they were all saying it. I just heard it accidentally."
Chang Sheng shrugged: "This is normal. People always like to demonize things that they don't understand but can threaten them, no matter what it is, even if it is a living person."
Arbeloa was curious: "Have you ever been a coach in Real Madrid's upper echelons? Then why did you leave in the end?"
Chang Sheng shook his head: "Didn't the rumors mention the reason why I left Real Madrid?"
"Yes, yes, but I think you are stupid." The young Arbeloa was quite bold and dared to comment on Chang Sheng like this.
Chang Sheng found the nineteen-year-old Arbeloa quite interesting. It seemed like a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers and would say whatever he asked.
"Oh, why?"
"Even if someone is unhappy with you, shouldn't you continue to stay at Real Madrid? You know, Real Madrid is always better than those teams outside."
Chang Winning Yishaoshou: "If I had continued to stay at Real Madrid, I would have only been an echelon coach. But now I have become the head coach of Valencia and led the team to win the league championship this season. In addition, I
There are also two Copa del Rey titles and a Serie B title. Are these what Real Madrid can give me?"
Arbeloa is a child after all, and his long-term and thoughtful thinking is not as good as that of an adult.
When Chang Sheng said this, he also realized his problem.
Yes, if he continues to stay in Real Madrid, can the man in front of him still become the head coach of Valencia?
In fact, this is what Chang Sheng wanted to say to Arbeloa.
So he went on to say, strike while the iron is hot.
"Just like you, Alvaro. If you stay at Real Madrid, you can get promoted to the B team, but after that? To be honest, I don't think you will get a chance in the Real Madrid first team. Do you know why?
?It's simple, Zidanega Pavin's policy failed, Florentino will not promote another defensive player from Real Madrid's B team. Pavin is now a substitute in the first team, and he rarely plays in the game.
Even Parveen is like this, do you think your future is very optimistic?"
Arbeloa opened his mouth and listened blankly. He even forgot to ask Chang Sheng: "Isn't it your responsibility for the failure of Zidanega Pavin's policy?"
Chang Sheng continued: "Do you think you will have a chance to go to Real Madrid's first team? Stop dreaming. Alvaro Florentino is not short of money. He would rather spend high prices to buy practical and qualitative defensive players from other teams.
, and will not trust the results of his youth training camp. Because Pavin has proved that Real Madrid’s youth training is a failure and cannot meet the requirements of Real Madrid’s first team. What will you do if you cannot be promoted to the first team?”
Chang Sheng stared at Arbeloa. His voice seemed to have a kind of magic power, making Arbeloa listen blankly.
"Do you think you are playing well in Real Madrid C team and have a bright future? But in the teams I coached, the 19-year-old players are already the main players. In Getafe, the 19-year-old He
Ser. Passarella and Carlos Campo are both the absolute main players in the team. They are the core of my defense. In Valencia, the 17-year-old Reyes has three goals this season.
Seven assists. Nineteen-year-old Ibrahimovic scored 21 goals and had 11 assists. You are still in the Real Madrid C team at the age of 19. Do you feel very proud?
?”
Arbeloa raised his head and looked at Chang Sheng. He was completely captured by Chang Sheng's words.
"So why did I come to Madrid to find you? I think you should know about the transaction between Valencia and Real Madrid. Someone from the Real Madrid club must have informed you. I am optimistic about your ability to adapt to multiple positions on the defensive line. I
The team needs players like you. I can't guarantee that you can play the main team. In fact, I never want to guarantee this, but I can give you more opportunities to play in the first team. I am not asking for you by name.
I want you to strengthen Valencia's C team or B team. I need you to contribute your strength to the first team. Now, this is a multiple-choice question. Play in Real Madrid's C team and B team, and then work hard.
Wait for the opportunity to play with the first team, or do you want to go to Valencia with me to play in the official Serie A?"
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, he remained silent. He leaned on the back of his chair, crossed his arms and looked at Abeloa.
Arbeloa was obviously moved by Chang Sheng. The nineteen-year-old young man was not good at hiding his true thoughts, and all his thoughts were reflected on his face.
“Can I really play in Division I?”
he asked a little excitedly.
Chang Sheng smiled: "Don't you know I always do what I say?"
※※※
Arbeloa fell in love with Chang Sheng and decided to leave Real Madrid and become a member of Valencia. It was Chang Sheng's speech about "What are you doing at the age of nineteen" that really moved him.
Yes, he is already nineteen years old, but he is still playing in the third echelon of Real Madrid. However, nineteen-year-old players are taking the lead in the first team one by one, accumulating rich experience in the first division, and even
He has become famous and has become a big star.
Why can't I also have such a nineteen-year-old?
After convincing Arbeloa, the next thing will be simple. Just let Arbeloa negotiate a contract with Valencia Club.
Young people do not ask for much in terms of personal treatment, and they value more the future development of their careers.
In this regard, Valencia, which has always won, can satisfy him.
Done with Arbeloa,
Chang Sheng called Cambiaso's agent again.
"Tell your player that he is willing to move from a team that rents him out for four years and does not give him a chance to play in the first team to a team that is willing to give him a lot of opportunities to play in the first team.
The league championship team?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site), give rewards, and your support is my biggest motivation.)
