At the Mareo training base the next day, Leon secretly asked his assistant Scottry, "Is Benita coming to the base today?"

Scottery said casually, "Miss Arango seems to have taken a leave of absence, and she won't be here today." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Excuse me?" Li Ang first breathed a sigh of relief, and then inexplicably worried, and asked, "Do you have any reason?"

Scottery shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

A few minutes later, Leon smoked a cigarette, rubbed his hair with a headache, and finally called Benita, and the phone rang until no one answered.

Then he received a text message, from Benita.

"Something?"

"I heard you're on leave?"

"Hmm. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The mouth is on fire. ”

Uh, Leon twitched, bared his teeth, and didn't reply to the message. There was no further message from the other side of the phone.

Leon looked up at the window, the grass was blue, the scenery was good, and then he washed his face, put all the bad things aside, and forced himself to focus on his work. He remembered that Benita said that the relationship between the two was still the same, and he was a little silent...... Let's hope so. He muttered uncertainly.

***********

It's the last day of training before the matchday, and Leon needs to announce the squad for the match.

The day's training is over, and everyone can relax. Ribery was joking with his teammates, the Frenchman was a pistachio who liked to be funny and had a little humor, and he had a good relationship with everyone. The other Frenchman, Benzema Jr., was a little absent-minded, looking at the sidelines from time to time.

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Ribery put his arm around Benzema, "Miss your little girlfriend?"

Benzema immediately argued, "Not at all." ”

Then the crowd burst into laughter.

Don't look at Benzema, who is only more than sixteen years old, and now has a girlfriend, a fourteen-year-old French girl, but Benzema came to Spain to play football, and the little girlfriend is now 'separated', Ribery has been joking that after returning to France, his girlfriend has married a new love.

Li Ang, who was communicating with two assistants in a low voice on the sidelines, glanced over here, looking at Benzema, who was a little daunted, but he smiled, since the French little guy came to the team, he has not yet had a chance to play, and he has not even entered the eighteen-man squad. Now, Benzema must be very anxious.

In today's training, the team's substitute striker David Lago suffered a small injury, which seemed to give Benzema hope of making the squad for the game, so the little guy was a little absent-minded.

Leon has already learned from the team doctor Mr. Rotalo that David Lago is not a big problem, and tomorrow's game against Espanyol can also be included in the squad for the game, of course, it depends on the decision of the head coach Leon, if Leon lets Lago rest and recuperate, then it is not impossible. It depends on what the manager means.

***********

Finally, it's time to reveal everything. Benzema watched the manager come over.

"Announcing the squad for tomorrow's match. Li Angyang raised the paper in his hand, and the training ground fell silent.

"Goalkeepers Valencia, Roberto. Defenders Grosso, Hierro, Pepe, Dorado, Isma, Ivanovic. Midfielders Carlos, Mata, Albertini, Ribery, Luka Modric, Marcos. The striker ...... "Reading this, Li Ang looked up at everyone.

"Milito. The first thing that came out was the name of Argentine striker Diego Milito.

The Argentine is smiling, he is now firmly in the main position of the team, Milito is now very grateful and happy to be able to be seen by Coach Leon to play in Sporting Gijón, this stage is much wider than his stage in Serie B.

"Di Natale!"

Di Natale also smiled, he is also very satisfied with his current time in Gijón, the team's tactics, he is now gradually adapting, even a little bit like a fish in water, in addition, the most important thing, the head coach Leon values him very much.

Diego Milito and Di Natale are now basically a regular forward combination for Sporting Gijón.

"Maguel Pihra!"

Macoul Pihra nodded, one of the oldest players in the squad and the main contributor to the team's promotion last season, and although he is unlikely to play the full game now due to fitness reasons, his header ability is still capable of being a qualified substitute.

The eighteen-man roster has now read seventeen, so the remaining one should be another substitute striker.

***********

Benzema only felt his heart beat faster, and even his breathing was a little short.

Leon took the list and watched as everyone said the last person's name: "Benzema." ”

There was a whistle in the team. This is Ribery, whistling, while Ribery put his arms around Benzema's neck and rubbed the little guy's hair vigorously.

Other teammates also came over to congratulate Benzema.

As for David Lago, his expression was calm, and it was clear that he had been told to rest him for this round of the game.

Benzema when he hears his name. His eyes widened as he watched his congratulatory teammates – all the while eager to be in the squad and to play, but when the moment came, the sixteen-year-old Benzema couldn't believe it.

In the end, knowing that he had made it to the squad, the little guy was happy in his heart, and was slightly proud, and pretended to be reserved and frowned at Ribery, "Frank, you messed up my hairstyle." ”

Everyone laughed, and they just thought it was really funny that this little guy seemed to be praised as a primary school student, and he deliberately played cool and pretended not to care.

***********

The next day, the Estadio El Molinon was packed, and the team's 8-0 away massacre of Zaragoza greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the fans, and the stadium was unsurprisingly full.

"According to the squad we have just obtained from both sides, it is found that the 16-year-old Karim Mustafa Benzema, who Sporting Gijón brought in from Ligue 1 Lyon this summer, is in this list. On the commentary bench, commentator Dagstino noticed a very important change in Sporting Gijón's eighteen-man squad.

"Sixteen-year-old little one...... I don't have a record of playing for Sporting Gijón before, and I admit that Coach Leon has always had a good eye for people, but, to be honest, I'm not optimistic about the prospects of this sixteen-year-old French guy in Gijón, the previous Mata and Carlos, they are our local players, and they know Spanish football very well, but, Benzema, unfortunately, a French little guy, just came to play overseas, I am not optimistic about Benzema's future career in Gijón. Gonzalez, another commentator, said.

D'Agostino also nodded, "Milito and Di Natale, the combination of Argentine and Italian, is indeed a good performance, but Coach Leon should have brought in an experienced player on the bench in the transfer market, and he ended up bringing in this sixteen-year-old French guy, which is an extremely risky move." I think Coach Leon could consider making up for the gaps in some positions in the winter. After all, they have to fight on multiple fronts. ”

This sentence is actually very euphemistic, and Dagstino means that Leon should not put his hope on a 16-year-old player, but need to increase the thickness of the bench on the front line and bring in reliable substitute players.

When the two commentators commented on Benzema's entry into the squad for the game, Benzema was sitting in the home team's dressing room and he was a little restless.

He was nervous.

ps: second update. In the last two hours of November, the monthly pass list was exploded at the last moment, and I beg you to come to the rescue. (To be continued.) )
