46. Chapter 46
Recently, River Plate has been annoyed up and down, fans are annoyed that Capa does not let Rafael start, Capa is annoyed that Rafael refuses to open up, and club president Passarella is annoyed when he sees the pile of offers on the table!
He wants to know now which grandson revealed the contract he signed with Raphael, and the 15 million liquidated damages were directly put on the table, and people all over the world knew about it. Now in Europe, no matter which league, as long as it is a club with a little extra money, it has tentatively sent an offer, and even Brazil has a club that covets their little beet, what a joke, he is crazy to sell people to Brazilians.
But Passarella has no room for maneuver now, less than 15 million euros of offer, he can refuse it all, but as long as this value is reached, he can only let the other club contact Rafael, the liquidated damages are so painful, as long as this price can be paid, and the player's consent is obtained, then the other party's transfer has nothing to do with River Plate.
For the first time, Passarella was so grateful to FIFA because they had a policy to protect young players – only players over the age of 18 could make international transfers. Therefore, Argentine players, who are members of South America, can only play for European clubs after the age of 18, and even if Rafael transfers, the transfer can only take effect when he reaches the age of 18. Of course, there is actually room for maneuver in this kind of clause, and if River Plate is willing to cooperate with the black-box operation, FIFA will not be full of food and have nothing to do.
However, the cultivation of the little demon has always been risky, such as Raphael's sudden misfortune, or his own wasted talent, and then the value will shrink significantly, judging from Raphael's current table, these probabilities are relatively small, leaving the angel behind, and the benefits outweigh the risks.
Oh, and as for the other clubs on the continent, Rafael, who doesn't care about salaries, is crazy to choose them, and he doesn't want to worry about that at all.
But what is frustrating for Passarella is that it is precisely because Rafael does not care about the salary that the new contract he sent to Rafael's agent has never been agreed. At first, Raphael's agent was his father, and the contract did not receive a direct response, on the grounds that he hoped to find a new agent and then negotiate a contract extension. By the time Raphael identified the agent as his mother, there was a huge disagreement between the two sides over the terms of liquidated damages.
The club wants to remove liquidated damages, and Rafael, on his side, is exempt from the possibility of liquidated damages.
For this reason, Passarella asked the youth director Hector to find Rafael to test his tone, in the face of this entanglement of interests and future, Rafael is very annoying, but River Plate has cultivated him, and he can't do the behavior of a white-eyed wolf, so he admitted that he only wants to focus on the game now, and he promised not to have any contact with other clubs during this time, and the new contract will be discussed after the season.
Despite the promise, Passarella, who was in a state of possession, felt terrible.
The news on the official website about Rafael's contract renewal has never progressed, which has also deepened the anxiety of River Plate fans, who are really afraid that when they open their eyes one day, the angel will become someone else's angel.
Compared to River Plate's concern about Rafael's belonging, most fans have already set their sights on the national team. This starts with the South American derby on November 17, which was originally played in July this year, replacing Maradona as the head coach of the national team, Batista, who called up Aguero to play for Atletico Madrid and Tevez of Manchester City, but both did not play due to injuries.
Originally, it wasn't a big deal, but instead, Aguero was a real injury, and Tevez was a fraud.
At the time, Tevez said he would not be able to play in the game, citing excessive muscle fatigue, and provided a certificate from the Manchester City team doctor.
The national team coaching staff understood this, so he was not called into the national team. However, just three days after the game, Tevez not only played for Manchester City, but also played 70 minutes on the pitch without any physical discomfort, much to the annoyance of manager Batista and his assistants.
Later, it was revealed by the media that Tevez was reluctant to travel all the way to Doha because he knew that he could not play in the main team, and it was a friendly match. Such a contemptuous attitude towards the international game has attracted a lot of criticism from Tevez.
In addition, it is the final call-up list of the U20 national youth team, which has attracted public attention.
This national youth team call-up is mainly for the Cordoba Six Nations Tournament held in the country from December 13 to 19, which is not an ordinary training camp, but a friendly match specially held to better prepare for the South American U20 Youth Championship to be held in January next year.
Under-20 national team coach Pelazzo said that the announced list, in addition to River Plate defender Garucci, who was absent due to injury, gathered the best players of the country's school age.
Argentinian: Huh, are you sure?
In this list, River Plate has a total of eight selections, accounting for almost half of the country, and at first glance, River Plate's youth training seems to determine the future of Argentina.
But there is no name for today's hot rising star Raphael Yun.
This is also the focus of the public's complaints, Rafael is in the first team of River Plate, leading the scorer list, you don't even recruit people? Obviously, you praised Rafael as a flower before. But in reality, it's not that Pelazzo doesn't want to call up Rafael, it's that River Plate doesn't let him go at all.
"Ole" - River Plate aims for spring league title, Angels missed the national youth team because the club refused to release him.
"As we all know, in the current standings, River Plate, which suffered two consecutive draws, has created suspense about the ownership of the spring league championship, and in the 18th round, there is a direct duel between River Plate and Estudiantes de La Plata, and at this critical moment in the championship race, River Plate is understandably unwilling to let go of the team's biggest trump card. ”
Ole's newspaper put River Plate on the cusp, and most fans hoped that Rafael would be able to participate in the Six Nations tournament, especially the fans of Estudiantes de La Plata, who were eager to go to Rafael sacks in the middle of the night and pack them to the Ezeiza training base.
In addition to the fans of River Plate......
"Damn, it's not enough to pick 8 people, the national youth team simply changed its name to the River Plate Youth Team. ”
"The club did a good job, just a few friendly games, do you need Rafael to play? ”
"I just can't see me win the championship in River Plate, hehe. ”
In response to this, Terri spoke in front of the media and said that Rafael would respond to the national team call-up at any time, and regretted the defeat this time. As for whether the club blocked the call-up, Terri just didn't know.
Anyway, for Rafael himself, the friendly match of the national youth team is indeed not as important as the championship.
After a season of struggle, no one wants to give up the championship to others.
It was not on his radar as to whether the rejection would affect the future of his national team.
On December 4th, River Plate played away to Atlético Colón, and in this game, Rafael, who had been substituted for two games, ushered in the start again, and La Plata played two hours earlier than them, and the score gap between Estudiantes, who won again, and River Plate, who did not start the game, narrowed the score gap to one point.
The fault tolerance of the riverbed is getting smaller and smaller.
In this game, they must win, otherwise the next game against the college team will be a battle of life and death.
Although River Plate currently has Raphael, the strength of the wheel on paper is far inferior to the current Estudiantes de La Plata.
Therefore, many non-River Plate fans, including media experts, have always felt that River Plate can always occupy the first place in the standings, which is really a dog and luck and met an "angel".
Atlético Colón is located in the city of Rosario, about two and a half hours from Buenos Aires.
Raphael sat on the bus, leaning against the window and playing with his phone, his fingers moving slightly.
Sitting next to him was Lanzini, who hadn't been online for a long time. He took a nap in the car for a while, opened his eyes and found that his friend was still in this position, and couldn't help but bump Raphael with his shoulder in curiosity, and saw a few color pictures in the afterglow: "Wow, when did you like to play with your phone so much?"
Raphael turned his head and spoke to him with great interest: "Manu, did you say that we can stay in Rosario after the game?"
Lanzini looked at him strangely and shook his head: "I don't think so, after the game, we will come back by bus at about 10 o'clock." ”
Raphael sighed: "Do you think why our club is so picky, stay one more night and die?"
Lanzini poked him with a smile: "What do you want to do again?"
Raphael's eyes sparkled: "Let's go to dinner, Leo introduced me to a few special restaurants, and I feel that the things in them are delicious." ”
Lanzini gave him a blank look, and he knew, "Oh, Leo? ”
Raphael stretched and changed his posture: "I don't know anyone else who lives in Rosario, also known as Leo, except for the one you think." ”
Lanzini was speechless: "So you've been texting him......?" Inexplicably how to break the heart plug.
Rafael nodded: "Let's talk to the coach, stay for one night, and then go back tomorrow morning, do you think he will agree?"
Lanzini snorted, "If you were to tell the truth, he wouldn't agree." Don't think about it, there will be a tough battle to fight in a few days, and the coach will not take a holiday. ”
Rafael counted the days and pouted: "This is not scientific, it used to be a game every 6 or 7 days, but it was so tight in the back." ”
"Because it's almost Christmas. Lanzini put his hands behind his head, "You can rest well, and then there will be more time, I will play with you." ”
"Okay......"
Lamela, who was sitting in the front row, listened to Raphael start to happily discuss with Lanzini again which restaurant had better food, and really wanted to record it, so that those female fans would know...... What kind of foodies are they all fans of?
