After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!
Chapter 1887 - 500: Guardiola Out
"Really, don’t they use their own country’s athletes?" Jepedro asked.
"Because Japan doesn’t have any outstanding football players!"
Begiristan said.
Having played in Liben for three years, he has a deep understanding of that country that admires strength but excludes Europe and America.
Huang Kaiwen is simply too strong, plus he’s Asian.
This is an advantage no European player can beat.
Even if a player is as skilled as Huang Kaiwen, it won’t affect Huang Kaiwen’s status in Liben.
Liben people speak of "the light of Asia" so can you really mix in?
As the person in charge of market development in Liben, he far more eagerly wishes to get Huang Kaiwen than he shows.
Having Huang Kaiwen almost means gaining the support of China, Japan, and most Asian fans, which is why Huang Kaiwen’s transfer can sway an entire league’s broadcasting fees.
The two chatted for a few more moments before getting up to shake hands and end today’s program.
And similar conversations occurred in sports programs all around the world.
On the next morning, in the "World Sports News" Cruyff column, Cruyff wrote: "If we don’t have to face Kevin, it’s great news for Barca. I hope the team can muster the courage to conquer San Siro, because they must know, such a good opportunity only comes once!"
April 23rd.
In the match against Brescia, Milan underwent a substantial rotation and achieved a hard-fought victory at an away game by 1 goal.
The next match is the real test.
However, for Milan, not all news is bad.
A day before the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, Huang Kaiwen had already returned to the team, training in the gym.
Huang Kaiwen’s arrival immediately brought a lively atmosphere to Milanello.
During lunch, Milan players were all having a laugh.
Inzaghi was clearly happy too, after all, his career didn’t have much time left, and if Huang Kaiwen returned early, it meant another championship could be added.
At that time he could mock Popo, that idiot, tell him Filippo Inzaghi the First is Italy’s forward with the most UEFA Champions League championships!
Guardiola nodded with satisfaction.
Recently heard Volta’s not doing well, seems his equivalent exchange worked.
This time he used his own blood, and Guardiola already felt the side effects.
He was much faster than usual.
Estimated that once this period was over, he could return to normal.
At this moment, Inzaghi bumped into Huang Kaiwen with his tray.
Guardiola suddenly jumped up and shouted: "What exactly are you doing?"
"I, I didn’t mean to."
Inzaghi said nervously, it hadn’t really been much.
"Do you know that if you touch Kevin he might miss the second leg, since you don’t want to eat in the first team cafeteria, you should go report to the youth team over there."
Guardiola shouted hysterically.
Inzaghi didn’t dare refute, after all, he did actually bump into Huang Kaiwen.
"Wait a minute!"
Guardiola said.
Inzaghi turned with hope, he thought Guardiola might realize he was too worked up.
At this moment, Guardiola said: "Although you should go to the youth team, you should still pack up the meal you got and bring it there, the food’s different on both sides, remember to pay for the lunchbox."
Inzaghi:...
He carried the tray over, the cafeteria staff packed it in a black lunchbox with the AC Milan team crest.
Inzaghi could only carry the lunchbox to report to the youth team.
The Milan Youth Team’s head coach is the club’s legend, Filippo Galli.
He had only successfully taken up the position last May.
In his playing career, he represented Milan for 13 seasons, winning many honors.
Seeing Inzaghi come to the youth team’s side, Filippo Galli said with a smile: "Is Inzaghi the First here to scout players? Want to spend money to plan who can go to your national team? Should I introduce a couple of outstanding lads to you?"
Inzaghi, with a dark face, squatted at the entrance of the cafeteria.
He really couldn’t bring himself to eat with those youngsters under 20.
Galli sat beside Inzaghi with his tray and asked: "How did you anger the coach and end up here?"
"I accidentally bumped into Kevin while walking earlier."
Inzaghi said, annoyed.
Galli widened his eyes and said: "Hearing this makes me want to kick you, don’t you know what Kevin means?"
"He’s famous as one of the Three Musketeers, and I’m the leader of the Musketeers!"
Inzaghi said, head held high.
Galli smiled and shook his head, he was 10 years older than Inzaghi but felt Inzaghi was less mature than his own son.
That kind of personality wasn’t bad.
Inzaghi wasn’t really clueless, maintaining such a mindset made Galli quite envious.
The next day Inzaghi still made it into the roster.
Milan didn’t have many players to use, especially in the forward position.
This match was eagerly anticipated.
Plus a significant number of Europeans really liked gambling.
This time there were many bets regarding when Huang Kaiwen would return, how many goals he’d score upon returning, whether he’d miss the UEFA Champions League finals for the first time, whether he’d get injured again... all sorts of bets were placed, earning hugely.
This also heightened the attention of the match.
Huang Kaiwen and Maldini sat together in the stands, beside Huang Kaiwen were Young Master and Maria, with little Valentina in her arms.
Were it not for Marius having a scientific report, Huang Kaiwen would have played babysitter for Guardiola’s kids today.
"How do you think today’s game will go?"
