From the moment he entered, Pochettino kept an eye on the cold. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He found that Gao Han is not a person who likes red tape, on the contrary, he is very honest, very straightforward, and likes to get straight to the point.

So, when Gao Han asked, he knew that this was the interview he was going to accept.

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Gao Han, I am very interested in your coaching resume, and all of us know that Chinatown is the first team you have led, so to speak, you started your coaching path from here. ”

With the rise of Gao Han's fame in European football in the past few years, he was abandoned by Barcelona and left in despair to Madrid, where he coached an amateur team, which was also talked about by countless media and fans, which made the China City team endowed with a rather magical color.

"You, like the media reporters and fans outside, want to see if there is really a secret to winning here?" Gao Han asked with a smile.

Pep Guardiolaga laughed, while Pochettino shook his head.

"No, no, Mr. Gao Han, you misunderstood, I don't have that gossip spirit, but I believe that you must have done something right, so you were able to lead the China City team to defeat strong opponents in the amateur cup and win the championship, and this team has been able to be promoted every year, and now it is in the third division. ”

Gao Han's resume is magical, but the rise of the China City team is equally impressive.

At the beginning, when the Chinese city team was included in the Spanish youth training system, everyone was still a little skeptical, and even thought that Gao Han used his role as a technical adviser to fight for the interests of his team, but now, no one will doubt it anymore.

Over the years, the China City team has sent away one player after another, some are still hovering in the lowest league, some have reached La Liga, or even La Liga, while the China City team is going up step by step.

Perhaps, this team is well-known because of the high cold, but it has used its legendary journey of upgrading year after year to make countless fans pay attention to it and even like it.

Nowadays, not to mention Fuenlabrada, even in the south of Madrid, there are countless young people who like to wear the red jersey of the China City team, wear the red flag of the China City team, and regard this team as their home team.

“OK。 Gao Han clapped his hands vigorously, stood up from his seat, and pointed at Pochettino, "You come with me." ”

Pochettino was a little surprised, but he didn't know why, but he saw Gao Han get up and walk out, and quickly followed Guardiola.

Gao Han walked out of the living room with the two of them and went directly to the third floor of the office building of the youth training center.

On the third floor there is a large room, which is very large, and when you open the door and enter, there are shelves inside, which are full of various materials, including video tapes, VCD discs......

Pochettino's first time here, looking at the long rows of shelves in front of him, he felt an unprecedented shock, especially when he looked more closely, he would find that these shelves were all distinguished.

"That's what we've collected from the very big players we've been in Spain, Europe and South America, and we're going to continue to do so in Africa and Asia. ”

Pochettino nodded blankly, still in disbelief.

"It's just a bit of information, and we're going to be keeping track of some of the players over time, especially the ones that our scouting department is focusing on, such as Neymar, a young player who has just made a name for himself in Brazil. ”

Pochettino had heard of the player, who is said to be the most talented potential superstar in Brazil since Robinho.

"A lot of people know that he came to Real Madrid for a trial in 2005, but in fact we were already following him before Real Madrid, but unfortunately he wasn't interested in our invitation. ”

This is not surprising at all.

Brazil's domestic economy has improved a lot in recent years, and many players are not willing to leave their home country as early as before, but prefer to stay in the country to grow, and Neymar rejected Real Madrid in the first place.

But what Pochettino didn't know was that Mendes had once chased Neymar and wanted to recruit him, but unfortunately, Neymar's father had a lot of ideas and decided to set up his own brokerage company, which was responsible for running Neymar's business, and was only willing to maintain a cooperative relationship with Mendes.

"Come with me here again. ”

Gao Han greeted the two, closed the door of the data room, and walked to a transparent glass curtain wall office opposite.

From the outside, there are several young people working in front of the computer, which is no different from an ordinary office building.

"We are now promoting informatization, we have our own software system to store and track player information, which we developed in 2005 with a total investment of 2 million euros. ”

"Two million euros?" Pochettino was taken aback.

This can already buy a good player in La Liga.

But soon, Pochettino realized a problem, 2005.

In other words, the youth training system and scouting system of the entire China City team, as well as what he saw in front of his eyes, were all created by Gao Han in the year after leaving the Chelsea manager's position.

But no one has paid attention to all of this.

Because neither the media nor the fans are interested.

"If you pay attention to the results of the youth teams in the surrounding areas of Madrid, you will see that our youth teams in all age groups are very good, and I can even say that we are better than the youth teams of big clubs such as Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. ”

Pochettino nodded: "Yes, and you have also contributed a lot of internationals to the Spanish national team at all levels. ”

You're right, but we're not satisfied with that. ”

Gao Han made a gesture of please, inviting both Pochettino and Pep Guardiola to walk to the balcony on the third floor.

Standing on the balcony, you can overlook the entire youth training center, and the fields are intertwined in a patchwork manner.

"It's been seven years since I set up the Chinatown Academy, and in those seven years, we've progressed to the third tier one step at a time, and we've done a lot of things because we know that we don't have the money and if we want to survive, we have to take a different path from other teams. ”

Buy low and sell high, this is the consistent feature of the China City team in the past seven years, coupled with the good relationship with Atletico Madrid, so that the China City team can always get some cost-effective players.

But all along, the Chinese city team has insisted on investing in youth training.

"Over the years, our goal has not been limited to Spain, after the first Talent Day we started to actively organize scouting systems abroad, for example, in '05 when our scouts went to Belgium to follow a youth team tournament and then sent us a player's profile. ”

"At the time, I thought he was very good with people like Cantarero and Sergio Garcia, but at that time, many teams, including Ligue 1 Lille, were interested in him, so I went to Belgium and persuaded the player's parents to bring him to Chinatown. ”

Pochettino's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Mr. Gao Han, are you talking about the Belgian youngster Eden Hazard who shined at the European Youth Championships this summer?"

Gao Han nodded and smiled, "Yes, it's him." ”

This was finalized on the spot after he investigated with a keen eye, and it took a lot of effort to dig him up to Chinatown.

"When I was coaching Inter Milan last summer, I fell in love with an Italian kid at a football school near Pescara, and I went to Pescara to convince him to switch to Chinatown, just after we poached the captain of their Under-13 team from the academy of a French team in Tolsi. ”

"In addition, we have our own channel in South America, and before that, Neymar was that this summer, we also recruited a 13-year-old from a football school in Córdoba, Argentina, a very promising attacking player. ”

Pochettino looked at Gao Han in front of him in disbelief, he seriously doubted that Gao Han was a pedophile?

Otherwise, why would he travel all over the world to collect so many young players?

"Do you know why I'm telling you this?" asked Gao Han with a smile.

Pochettino shook his head, vaguely understanding, but not very well.

"I want you to know that this academy center that you see will become a treasure trove of stars coveted by all over Spain, all over Europe, all over the world, all teams, all the big clubs, but what I really want to do is to bring the team to La Liga in the next few years and conquer everyone with this group of stars that we have developed. ”

Pochettino was dumbfounded.

Crazy!

It's crazy!

He let the China City team rise from the lowest level year by year, not only did he not be satisfied with this, he even wanted the China City team to rely on his youth players to compete in La Liga and even European football.

If these words didn't come from Gao Han's mouth, he would definitely scoff at them, because it was simply impossible.

But the person in front of him was Gao Han.

A manager who has never been defeated since his debut, a Bole who is more accurate than anything else, and a legend who is always creating impossible miracles......

He had no way of doubting Gao Han's ambition.

The only thing that can be done is admiration and envy.

Looking at the entire European football world, no, it is the whole world, and the only one who can do such crazy things is Gao Han.

But his approach is also very wise, because if he wants to lead a team from scratch and rise in the top league, he must either invest a huge amount of money, or strengthen his own youth strength like Gao Han.

Guardiola has heard Gao Han talk about this matter a long time ago, and he is also full of expectations for it, but he is worried that Gao Han will not be able to do it, which is very ambivalent.

Gao Han is completely immersed in his ardent desire for the future, and he knows that it is not impossible for him to do all this, because he not only has a group of future superstars with unlimited potential, but also because he has a coaching system.

In order to make the players better successful, he even spent a huge amount of money to buy a set of youth training programs in the coaching system that are suitable for teenagers and can stimulate the potential of young players, and arranged it to become an important training program of the Chinatown Youth Training Center.

Therefore, in the past few years, the China City team has been able to buy low and sell high so smoothly, cultivating young players one after another.

He always believed that he would succeed.

"Mauricio, you know what I think, then what I want to ask you is, now, my team needs a good manager, will that be you?" Gao Han asked solemnly, looking at Pochettino sincerely.
