Chapter 1076: Rukawa Kaede's Special Training Invitation (I)
Three years ago, in order to completely rebuild and get draft picks, the Jaguars sent their biggest star in the team, Akagi Goken, to the Antlers.
Akagi, who was already a free agent, could join directly as a free agent, but in order to leave something for his old club, he adopted the method of "sign first and then exchange" and sent Akagi to Kagoshima.
Got some quality picks.
Today's overseas rookie, Mike Tanaka, a mixed-race player known as the second generation of Sakuragi Hanamichi, is the product of that deal.
Therefore, even after leaving the team, Akagi's status in the hearts of Kobe fans is still very high.
There was no burning of jerseys either.
And when Akagi went to the Antlers, he wanted to fight with the Trident and win the championship.
However, due to injuries and other reasons, the combination of Akagi and Trident was not successful.
Akagi and Ashen were sent to the Rising Sun, and the Antlers entered the rebuild.
Originally, Akagi didn't want to change teams again, but Rukawa Kaede suddenly announced that he would return to the Jaguar team, which made Akagi feel that he might return to the Jaguar team again and relive his dream back then.
For this dream, Akagi jumped out of his current contract and became a full free agent.
Akagi returned to Kobe, back to the Jaguar training base, and this was the first time in three years that Akagi had returned.
"It feels like recalling the scene when I was a rookie, and so many years have passed, haha, it's really a time rush~!!"
Akagi sighed as he walked in the courtyard of the training base.
"Once, this should have been my picture~!!"
Akagi sighed as he looked at the large poster on the telephone pole on the side of the road.
Now it's Kubodo, McDanaka, Nakariwan and others.
If it weren't for the return of Rukawa Kaede, this Jaguar team would have nothing to do with the previous Jaguar team.
At the entrance of the office building of the base here, general manager Mitoshi Kawaguchi, head coach Bolvaf, player representatives, and fellow villagers of Akagi - Tetsuri Fujima, and even team owner Kenichi Takayama are all listed, waiting for Akagi's arrival.
This also reflects the sincerity of the Jaguar team.
By the way, in addition to the three people mentioned above, there is another person, standing there with his hands in his pockets and dragging~~
"Akagi, this guy, it's really easy to recognize, cut~~"
Listening to this tone, you can know that this person is Akagi's former teammate who has just announced his return to the Jaguar team-Rukawa Kaede.
The Jaguar team has shown to be the strongest lobbying team at this stage.
"Long time no see, everyone~!!"
Akagi walked, raised his head, flipped the brim of his hat up, and said with a smile.
"Welcome back, Akagi ~ !!"
Boss Takayama walked over and said with a smile.
"Akagi, Rukawa Kaede, hahaha~!! this situation, isn't it the Jaguar team before~!!!Haha, I feel it, it's really back, it's really back, it's all back, it's all back, everything is back~!!!"
General Manager Kawaguchi felt a little like imitating a classic line, and when he looked at such a scene, he sighed secretly.
Several people did not linger any longer, and soon entered the interior of the building.
"Akagi, you know, this is your home, when you wanted to leave, I already said it, this is your home, you are welcome to come back at any time, and it should be normal for you to come back~!!"
After a group of people sat down and started the round table, the boss Kenichi Takayama said very straight to the point.
The atmosphere in the conference room is quite unique, but it is Fuji Zhenche who is sitting on the very edge, and the T-shirt with a cartoon pattern looks a little out of place~~
"Haha, indeed, indeed, this is indeed my home, although I haven't been back for a long time, but, the intimacy is still ~~"
Akagi didn't hide it, and said directly.
"So, Akagi, come back, we really need you, we've always needed you, you know, that deal didn't happen at all, I wanted to keep you in Kobe, so, really, stay, let's continue to move forward together and complete the unfinished dream ~!!"
The "offensive" of the Takayama boss was very violent.
"Haha, the current Jaguar team is indeed very different from before, Rukawa Kaede is back, Nakasato Wan is also there, Abe Tatsune is also very adaptable here, Fujima Cheri and Mike These young players have a lot of room to rise~!!! This is indeed a new atmosphere~!!"
Akagi sighed.
"Akagi, I think it, I chose to come back here in order to fulfill my wish back then, maybe the people around me won't be the same wave as before, but our hope, our belief I believe are still there~!!"
Rukawa Kaede also opened his mouth to persuade.
"And, Akagi, don't worry, if you still feel sorry for the Antlers, we can still take the way we did before, that is, we use the method of signing first and then exchanging, we still have a certain amount of chips in our hands, and these chips are enough for us to exchange back yours~!!"
Kawaguchi followed suit.
"Okay, I know, I know what you say, this may be the last choice of my career, although Kobe is not my true roots, but, I am also willing to fall here~!!"
Akagi did not hesitate, and soon gave such a very obvious answer~~
As expected, Akagi decided to return to the Kobe Jaguar team.
Just like the Antlers said before, when they knew that Akagi was going to have a meeting with the Jaguar team, they already knew that this was a meeting of "going and not returning"~~
Moreover, it seems that Akagi is not ready to do anything to sign first and then change, and directly sign the Jaguar team naked.
With the return of Kaede Rukawa and Akagi, coupled with the original cast, Team Jaguar is the favorite to win next season.
Akagi Goken, Kubo Fuji, McDanaka, Rukawa Kaede, Nakariman, Abe Tatsune, Fujima Tokuri.
Such a lineup may be much stronger than the previous Jaguar team in its heyday~!!
"Congratulations~!!"
"Welcome back~!!"
"The soul of the Jaguar team's inside line is back~!!"
Boss Takayama, Manager Kawaguchi, and Fujima Tetsuri all stepped forward to congratulate Akagi~~
"I want to announce one thing~!!"
At this moment, Rukawa Kaede, who was still sitting in his seat, suddenly said loudly and seriously.
"Huh~??"
Hearing Rukawa Kaede say this, Manager Kawaguchi directly turned his head and looked at Rukawa Kaede, with a little anxious expression, because after all, Rukawa Kaede has not officially signed a contract with the team, and it is very likely that there will be some discrepancies.
Rukawa Kaede's voice also attracted all the attention of the audience~~
"Me and Akagi should be considered veterans of the Jaguar team, but for these players now, such as Fuji Shin Cheri, they don't know much about them, and they may have their own style of play, and me and Akagi may have our style of play, so this is uncertain~~ And with our current lineup, I think our goal next season is to compete for the championship, and in order to shorten our run-in period and speed up the tacit understanding between me and Akagi for these new teammates, I want to invite all the players to have a special training~!! ”
