Sitting on the bench, Tang Hong put on Braga's autumn sports coat, and the team doctor massaged the area where he was cramping.
Tang Hong definitely didn't have cramps caused by a lack of vitamins or calcium, so he only needed physical therapy to recover.
He played two games in five days, and he had nothing to keep in the game, as long as he was on the court, he was on the pitch and running at a faster pace than in a high-intensity confrontation, which made his body a little unbearable before he was 18 years old.
The game continued on the court, and Tang Hong put on his trousers to keep warm and continued to watch the game.
The Municipal Stadium reverberates with the cheers of the home team's fans, and the Europa League is off to a good start!
Athletic Bilbao threatened two shots in the remaining game time, but both were saved by Quiem, and Braga finally held on to the score of 3:2 and took all three points!
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Tang Hong, who was dressed in autumn sportswear, stood up and smiled and high-fived his teammates around him, and then walked to the players' tunnel.
He couldn't wait to take a hot shower.
After returning to the locker room, the Braga generals took the initiative to give Tang Hong a simple hug, and then music played in the dressing room, and the Brazilian players danced their bodies while cheering for victory.
It was only when Yaltium returned to the dressing room that the music stopped for a minute and the manager took the initiative to hug each player and praise them for their performance today, and as for the summary of the game, that was tomorrow.
Music and dancing followed in the locker room.
Tang Hong had cramps in his right leg, so he did not join the samba dance troupe after bathing.
went home early to rest, and Tang Hong was doing yoga in the front yard of the villa the next morning when someone came to the door.
The weather in Braga in autumn is very good, the breeze is gentle and not cold, and the sunshine is abundant, so Tang Hong is also comfortable wearing only short-sleeved shorts.
The electric door of the villa opened, and a Mercedes-Benz drove in, and Mendes, dressed in shirts and trousers, walked briskly with a newspaper under his arm and a smile on his face.
Tang Hong greeted him and asked, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
Greetings with Chinese characteristics.
Mendes laughed and stepped forward to hug Tang Hong, which is a very common etiquette in Portuguese life.
Mendes handed him the newspaper with a smile and said: "You should see how the media in Portugal praise you today." ”
Tang Hong glanced at the hall of the villa, shook his head with a smile and said: "There's no need, I have a younger sister, she likes to collect news about me now, of course it's positive, and she will ignore negative comments directly." ”
Mendez rolled up the newspaper again and held it in his hand, not intending to open it again for Tang Hong to see, he looked down at the city of Braga, and asked with a smile: "Braga is still smaller, do you want to go to the big city?" ”
Tang Hong frowned and said, "Could it be?" ”
Mendes smiled: "You should have thought that the new season has only been a month old, you have scored 10 goals for Braga, there are also three assists, and more importantly, your fighting spirit on the field and the talent you have shown have made the three Portuguese giants impossible to ignore, just now, the desk of Braga president Salvador has three offers from Porto, Benfica, Sporting Lisbon, 15 million euros."
As long as El Salvador agrees and you are willing to transfer, then in three months you will be able to leave Braga to compete for the title, and you can rest assured that I will get you close to the top salary in their team. ”
This is not that Mendes is not targeted, his confidence comes from his strong posture when dealing with these giants and negotiations, after all, there are many of his customers in the three giants of the Portuguese Super League, and it is absolutely impossible for those giants to say that Mendes is not a little jealous, and it is also because Tang Hong himself also has the ability to ask for high salaries and market influence.
Tang Hong asked meaningfully: "From Braga to Lisbon or Porto?" Go to a championship team? Isn't the team I'm playing for now in a championship race? ”
Mendes was stunned when he heard this, and sighed when he came back to his senses: "I like your fighting spirit and ambition very much, I just came to tell you that now you have a new choice, my advice is that if you are eager to have a bigger challenge, then Porto is a good place to go, if they can qualify for the Champions League group stage, then you can play in the Champions League in the second half of the season, but maybe there won't be much time, after all, Porto can enter the knockout round today is already very remarkable, want to enter the quarterfinals or semi-finals?" It reminds me of Jose Mourinho's days when he was in charge of Porto, which seemed too long ago. ”
Tang Hong thought for a moment and then replied: "Although I don't have any nostalgia for the city of Braga, but as a place where I debuted in my career, the club coach Yaltim did not deceive me, he gave me the opportunity to play professional football here, and now I am a little famous, I have just gained the trust of the team, I think I should continue to fight here, maybe this team is not as strong as Porto, Benfica, Sporting Lisbon, but it will make us work harder, It also makes it more challenging for us to go for the title.
Another point is that I have now won the main position in Braga, why should I go to the big three clubs of the Portuguese Super League to be a foil for others?
The height of the jump from Braga to the big three of the Portuguese Super League is not very attractive, and if I were to leave Braga, I would leave Portugal directly. ”
Mendes nodded in understanding, he patted Tang Hong on the shoulder and smiled: "Then you just keep working hard, to be honest, eight years ago, when I sent 18-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United, although I have facilitated the transfer of many players in the following eight years, but you are the second one that makes me excited now, I want to see how many clubs will be willing to take you away from Portugal when this season is over."
Tang Hong, you have a great future, I hope you don't give up halfway. ”
Tang Hong smiled and nodded at Mendes.
As an agent, Mendes will also play the role of a player's life coach in some ways, helping players manage their finances, helping them settle their families, and guiding players to become better, which is the secret of his success.
Tang Hong invited Mendes to have lunch together at home, Mendes did not refuse, but to his surprise, Sun Rou, who looked younger than Tang Hong, prepared an extraordinarily sumptuous lunch, and arranged it in an orderly manner from a nutritional point of view.
At the dinner table, he talked and laughed with Tang Hong and learned more about Tang Hong's football growth experience in the past.
To Mendes' surprise, Tang Hong spends far more time in football than other players.
For example, Tang Hong has been practicing almost every day since he was three years old, and since he was eight years old, he has focused on strengthening his physical fitness and conducting systematic football training, and since he was 15 years old, he has led the team to play an official game every week, and his diet has been very nutritious since five years ago.
It is impossible for other players to devote so much time to football every day, because it is the nature of children to be playful, and secondly, there is something to learn, and training at a young age is relatively easy and free.
This made Mendes understand that Tang Hong's current strength comes from his unimaginable dedication and consistent focus on football.
In the afternoon, Tang Hong was going to training, and Mendes was going with him because he was going to talk to El Salvador.
Regardless of whether the chairman wants to liquidate Tang Hong immediately, Mendes must at least inform Braga of Tang Hong's choice, even if Braga wants to send him to the three giants of the Portuguese Super League, not only to earn 15 million euros for nothing in half a year, but also to make an excess return on the sport, but Tang Hong is unwilling to transfer, then the deal cannot be completed.
Salvador was really hesitating, but Mendez's arrival put him off.
Mendes said the deal wasn't going to happen and he knew there was no room to maneuver.
El Salvador is just worried that in the end, if Tang Hong stays in Braga for two years and then moves freely, Braga will naturally not lose money, but it will lose a good income.
Mendez is very good at doing things, and of course he will convince Salvador to put his heart in his belly.
He needs Braga to continue to give Tang Hong the greatest support, which is also a reflection of Mendez's efforts to fight for the best interests of his clients.
Besides, Braga really doesn't get a monetary return in the end, which is not Mendes's purpose, he is always looking for a win-win result.
