If you list the names of every world football superstar and read their lives from beginning to end, then the growth experience of more than 90% of them is a history of inspirational struggle.
In world football ten years from now, people who like Ronaldo can list his countless advantages, and people who don't like Ronaldo can also list his countless shortcomings.
However, Ronaldo's life journey before he became famous should be respected and admired by everyone.
In this era when talent is needed, how could Aldridge forget about this Portuguese superstar?
When Andrew's company was established, Aldrich told him Ronaldo's name and general information and asked him to help find him.
But unlike Messi, who is in the second largest city in Argentina, although Cristiano Ronaldo is in Europe, his place is too remote, reaching the edge of Europe. If Cristiano Ronaldo hadn't entered the lower echelon of the national team, Andrew's ball
Although the network was covered here in Portugal half a year ago, I am afraid that Aldrich still cannot find this embryonic star who is living in dire straits.
Although this is not a slum in the strict sense, it is just like Ronaldo's house, grassroots, dilapidated, but bright. In the decadent and decadent environment, there are flowers and plants tended by the parents' hands that light up the hope of life.
Because Ronaldo was the person named by Aldrich, Andrew's scouts also conducted investigations when collecting information here.
The environment of the neighborhood is terrible. There are no positive elements here. The neighbors are all drunkards. The young people are self-degenerate. Even Cristiano Ronaldo's family and his friends have been swallowed up by the devil and their fighting spirit has been swallowed up.
.
His brother is addicted to drugs.
Some of his teammates in the national team also took drugs.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who came from a difficult family, was thin and weak at this time. But he still insisted on his football dream. He was not affected by the depravity of his friends, and showed maturity beyond what a 12-year-old boy should have.
When Ronaldo's mother Dolores was looking through the Millwall club brochure, Ronaldo's father Dinis came back. This man is now a worker who repairs the turf of the stadium. His owner is the amateur team Antonio in this area.
, it is precisely because of his working relationship here that Ronaldo entered the team through the back door for training at around the age of 7, and was eventually taken away by the National Team two years ago. For this, the National Team only paid for Antonio
Two brand new jerseys and shoes for the team, worth 600 euros.
Of course, this does not mean that the 10-year-old Ronaldo is deemed to be worth 600 euros. With his age, the club cannot restrain him. It is just a common practice between clubs to maintain relationships, just like Aldrich will give
Some amateur teams have the same symbolic transfer fee. When it comes to the law, Aldridge can take away players like Klose and Barzagli for free. Because even if Klose is 18 years old, the contract is an amateur contract.
The buyout cost will not exceed £10,000.
After Dinis and Aldridge introduced each other, they sat down and the couple looked at the Millwall Club brochure very carefully.
Although Dinis' father has no skills, he works as a turf worker in an amateur club and also works part-time as a gardener. It is conceivable how low his income will be. However, from the day Ronaldo can walk, as long as he has the opportunity, Dinis will
He can train Ronaldo to play football. On the road of football, the influence of his father on his son has left a bit of imprint deep in the memory of Ronaldo.
They saw Millwall's carefully compiled brochure, which introduced the changes Millwall had made under Aldridge's leadership in the past three years, entering the Premier League with a record number of points, and becoming the second team in English history to have double cups in a season.
King, the first team in history to win the league, FA Cup and European Cup treble.
This made Millwall's reputation not as prominent as Real Madrid's in Latin regions such as Portugal, but it was enough for the couple to think that Millwall was a great club.
That is the best team in England this year, and it is definitely stronger than the Portuguese championship team.
The couple exchanged some words, and finally Dinis looked embarrassed and said: "Mr. Hall, to be honest, I very much hope that my youngest son can go to Millwall for football training, because the environment there is so good, Leo Youth Training
The base has so many high-end facilities, as well as nutritionists, doctors, and professional coaches. These are what I hope my youngest son can get most, but we cannot afford for him to live abroad."
Aldrich calmly took out a document from his suitcase and handed it to the other party, saying softly: "Please take a look at this."
After taking the document, Dinis and Dolores looked over it together. After they spent fifteen minutes reading it, the two of them were completely stunned.
"Fifty thousand pounds! You will give us half a million pounds?! Why? Are you going to buy my son?"
Dinis's expression changed. He was both frightened and panicked by his own speculation.
Dolores held her husband's hand tightly and shook her head slightly, as if she really thought Aldrich was here to buy their son.
Aldridge remained calm and asked calmly: "Sir, Madam, I have a question for you. In your eyes, will Cristiano Ronaldo become a professional player?"
Dinis nodded affirmatively and said loudly: "He will do it! He will definitely do it! Everyone who has seen him play football is full of praise for him!"
"Will he become a star?"
"meeting!"
"Will he become one of the top superstars in football?"
"this......"
Even though Dinis firmly believed that Ronaldo would succeed, he did not dare to draw a firm conclusion as to how successful it would be.
"He will!"
When Aldrich said these two words to the couple with firm eyes, the couple stared blankly at the young marshal.
Aldrich said with an extremely solemn expression: "But if he wants to become a superstar, he needs to work ten times or a hundred times as hard as ordinary people! He also needs the strength of his family, someone to supervise him, and someone to guide him correctly! I don't buy this money.
Instead of giving birth to your son, it allows you to get rid of the worries of life and put all your energy into cultivating him so that he can concentrate on his life.
Play football. Let him be a 12-year-old child. Don’t worry about his parents and older brothers and sisters! Take this money, buy your own house, open a shop and run it. In short, we must create a place where we can cultivate him together.
Environment, if you are willing, I can also pay for his brothers and sisters to go to school for further education, and let the poor child who is addicted to drugs go to drug treatment."
Dinis was shaken physically and mentally. After a long while, he turned his head to look at his wife, only to see Dolores already bursting into tears.
Every day they look forward to Ronaldo growing up quickly, becoming famous quickly, and using his power to change this impoverished family.
But before they could wait for this day, a noble person came to their door.
In any case, it was their youngest son who brought all this.
"Let's move to England too."
Dinis hugged his wife and said softly.
Dolores shook her head and refused, choking and saying: "No, let him be independent! Let him learn to live alone. He cannot always live with his parents. Learning to be independent can help him grow up as quickly as possible."
Dinis hesitated for a moment and said: "Then let's stay in Portugal and listen to you. Let him live independently."
Aldridge saw the reluctance on Dinis's face, so he said: "The club can provide him with expenses for traveling back and forth between Portugal and the UK every half month."
"No! No! No! We can't let him come back! Never!"
Dolores couldn't suppress her emotions and shouted heartbreakingly.
The poor life of a son of a bitch made this woman, who had been worried about her family, completely release her emotions at this moment.
"He can't come back! He can't come back! He doesn't belong here!"
Dolores deeply understands that this community is full of sin and depravity. She prays every day that her youngest son must not be a bad learner, commit a crime, or take drugs like his brother!
Those children who grew up with Ronaldo, most of them are not yet 15 years old, but have been completely destroyed. Dolores does not want Ronaldo to come back and then be assimilated by his harmful friends.
.....
Aldrich probably guessed the mother's mood, so he fell into silence.
At this moment, Ronaldo went home.
The 12-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo is thin and thin, with a vaguely futuristic appearance. He has curly hair and is wearing a national team jersey. He is dirty all over. It seems that this is a day of serious and hard training.
He saw his father hugging his mother, and her mother howling in his arms. He suddenly became anxious, picked up a cup on the table, raised his hand and shouted to Aldrich: "Who are you? You bastard
!”
It is hard to imagine that a 12-year-old child would stand up and resolutely defend his family in the presence of his parents. This may be the epitome of Ronaldo's fighting spirit.
"stop!"
Dinis scolded Ronaldo and then explained everything to him, but did not tell him that Millwall would pay the family half a million pounds.
Ronaldo was very happy after hearing this, but after learning that his parents would not go to London, he immediately changed his face, roared and ran into his room without going anywhere.
Dolores wiped away her tears and apologized to Aldrich: "Mr. Hall, I'm sorry, he is still a child who can't live without his mother. I will persuade him."
After saying that, Dolores got up and walked into Ronaldo's room. The sound insulation of the house was not good. At first, the mother and son were arguing. Later, Ronaldo's voice gradually became quieter. Finally, Dolores and Ronaldo came together.
Walking out, Ronaldo had obvious reluctance on his face.
Aldridge stood up and walked to Ronaldo, who looked up at Aldridge with hostility in his eyes.
With such a glare, he could clearly see Aldrich's appearance. He hadn't paid attention just now, but now he realized that the other person was a well-known figure.
"You, are you Aldrich Hall?"
Aldrich nodded with a heavy face, and before Ronaldo could continue to ask questions, he looked down at the child and said calmly: "Cristiano Ronaldo, answer me a question, do you think you can bring happiness to your family?
"
Cristiano Ronaldo looked stunned, then puffed up his chest and said loudly: "Of course, I will make a lot of money playing football in the future!"
"When will that be?"
"18 years old, no, 17 years old, no, 15 years old! I will definitely become a big star when I am 15 years old!"
Ronaldo said with confidence.
Aldrich nodded and said, "So what can you do for your family in the three years before you turn 15?"
Ronaldo was suddenly speechless and his face became ugly.
Dolores felt sorry for her son and wanted to speak, but Dinis held her hand and shook her head seriously.
Aldridge pressed Ronaldo's shoulder with one hand and said in a deep voice: "You think you are an adult now and a man. That's great. I won't treat you like a child. Let's make a deal.
"
Ronaldo raised his head and asked: "What deal?"
"Follow me to London. In the next three years, you will train hard and devote every minute to football. This is what you have to pay. If you promise to do it, I will give it to your sister in these three years.
Find a prestigious school with your brother and pay the rent and living expenses in a high-end apartment for your family. This is
The contribution you can make to your family before you become a star is to make your family happy. If you fail to do it in the end, then three years later, not only will you not be able to become a star, but you will also have no future and no income.
With a high salary, your family situation will plummet. How about that?"
Ronaldo's eyes were firm and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's a deal!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Aldrich's mouth, and he said calmly: "It's a deal." (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
