Chapter 242: Blue-Black Visits

Since Rajjadzic's fame in Italian football is at best trivial, the news of his heated conflict with the Torino coach did not make much of a splash, but it was inevitable that the two parties would be a little awkward to meet in training the next day. However, to Li Mudi's surprise, the other party didn't take the initiative to come over and explain something to him, what the hell is this?

Regardless of whether this incident is true or not, as long as the former cannot leave the team immediately, at least he must stand up and resolve the knots that may exist in the hearts of the two people. Such an act of pretending that everything has happened and seems to be everything is silent, which really makes Li Mudi, who is not very skilled in interpersonal communication, feel very weird, and can't help but secretly think in his heart: This guy's EQ is really pitiful, no wonder he hasn't been able to make a close friend in the Turin team for more than half a year.

However, the Torino coach did not deliberately embarrass Rajadzic, and still treated him like any other player in training, not demanding or indulgent. At present, the Serb's personal form is only shown as "unhappy that he can't play in the team", and does not directly show his personal resentment towards Li Mudi, but the dissatisfaction with the value of less than 50 will not be expressed in the FM system, and it seems that it will still need to be checked when using the scouting tool at the beginning of next month. Li Mudi has already given the FM system assistant in his mind the setting to pay attention to this player, and once he finds that the situation is wrong, he can prepare in advance.

After training on Thursday, the Torino coach received a rare invitation to dinner with the club's prince, and although it was not clear what the situation was, he said that he was very happy to try other options after eating Celestial Takeaway during this time.

The dinner was served at Caffè Fiorio on Via Po, a shop with a history of more than 200 years and a long-standing favourite with artists and politicians. The tapas here are some of the best known in the whole of Turin, with mini sandwiches and canapés (toasted bread or crepes topped with meat, cheese and fish) famous, and many tourists come to visit them. However, just like other traditional restaurants in Turin, Caffè Fiorio also needs to book a table many days in advance, because a main meal here takes at least two and a half hours, and the return rate is very low, and there are few places, so the cost of each meal is not low, usually seven or eight hundred euros.

The reason why I want to book here here is because Caffè Fiorio is famous for ice cream in the whole of Italy, and it is not easy to say no if it is for Valentino Cailo, who is a fan of ice cream.

Enjoying the vanilla freezing point, the Torino coach was in a relaxed mood, as if Joe Hart and Rajjdzic were no longer even a big deal with Inter Milan two days later, and all worries disappeared without a trace under the coldness and sweetness of the tongue buds. But Valentino is clearly not the kind of man who wants to have dinner with his peers, and the purpose of his trip is to show Li Muddy his plans for a recent revamp of the team.

Last month, the Torino club poached Sergio Scabini, a well-known scout in Italian football, from Genoa, who immediately recommended a number of players who had played or were currently playing for the Griffins to his manager, marketing manager Valentino Cairo.

The club's other scouts have confirmed that the club's prince has developed a keen interest in a number of Genoa players or former players, and with the regular player search after the winter break, Valentino has put on a shortlist of candidates to try to bring in this summer. This is also the first time that he has independently operated the recruitment project on a large scale, and most of the previous player trading plans led by the team's coach, so for fear that Li Mudi would have any additional ideas, he wanted to communicate today to nip the possible estrangement between the two sides in the bud.

In fact, Li Muddy is not a person who does not know the rules, in the mainstream leagues of the European continent, except for the head coach of the English team, who is called the manager and can be a part of the player trade, the other leagues are in charge of the transfer power by the football director or general manager, just like the most famous in the industry, such as Moggie, Galliani and Begiristain, etc., are masters and leaders in the transfer market. After Page's departure, this aspect of the work should have been taken over by the head of the marketing department, so the Torino boss has no intention of juggling two roles, and he is not happy that someone can do the time-consuming and laborious negotiation work, as long as he can say hello to him before the transfer side of the operation.

Although he will let the other party control the transfer work, he doesn't want to see the situation out of his control, after seeing this list, compared the FM system in his mind, he couldn't help but sigh: The club is really stingy, this day is too tight!

The current Genoa centre-back, 36-year-old Argentine veteran Nicolás Burdisso, who has played for Inter Milan and Roma, has a contract that expires on June 30 this year, and the Griffins seem to have no intention of renewing his contract, so Valentino decided to sign him for free. It has to be said that he still has a certain vision, the old defender's mental attributes are still very strong, anticipation, bravery, willpower, teamwork and work commitment can be regarded as world-class, and even the ability to head and mark people is second only to Ranocchia in the current Torino team, and better than Rossettini. However, his height of 182 cm and the rapid decline in physical fitness have made it difficult for him to become the main defender of a team that aims to gain something on the European stage, and can only be used as a substitute for the time being.

Venezuelan international centre-back/midfielder Tomás Rincón, who is at the peak of his career at the age of 29, was included in the Old Lady for €8 million after the opening of this year's winter window, after his impressive performances with the Griffins in the previous two-and-a-half seasons. However, due to the fierce competition within the team in the past, it has been in an unsatisfactory situation for Juventus in the last two months or so, and has always been replaced as cannon fodder in the last ten minutes or so.

According to Torino FC scout Benedetti, Lincoln, who has just joined his new club, is unhappy with his current situation and is likely to seek new space to develop after the transfer reopening this summer, and his excellent defensive toughness is exactly what the Red Bulls are lacking at the moment. Although from the attribute point of view, the Venezuelan has completely destroyed the current Acwa, but if you want to snatch this strong midfielder from the old woman, the price may not be too small, the Torino coach said that it is still necessary to wait and see.

The player on the list who is most interested is Lyanco, who currently plays for Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the youngster, born in 1997, has been playing in the Brazilian league since he turned 18. So far, he has played 21 competitive games for his parent club, totalling nearly 1,400 minutes, and has also scored a goal. But if you take into account his ultra-low win rate of only three yellow cards, the youngster, who has just passed his 20th birthday, still has some potential. Although this month's scouting tools have been used up, judging by his current ability values, Li Mudi estimates that Lianco's potential value should be around 150, close to the level of Ranocchia. If the price is not high, you can still gamble on him.

Of course, not everyone on Valentino's roster is reliable, such as winger Alex Berenguer, whom he and scouts have highly recommended, and the 21-year-old Spaniard has been a regular for Osasuna for the second year in a row and has also contributed to the team's promotion to La Liga last season. However, it can be easily found through the personal information column of the FM system that the player's style of play is somewhat unique, and his personality is very aggressive, and he has a record of fouls in a single season with nine yellows and one red, and he is not a good team player.

In addition, players such as Cameroon international central defender Nicolas N'Koulou, who just joined Lyon on a free transfer last summer but has lost his place in the team, French winger Niang, who was beaten into the cold by Montella, and Brazilian defender Lucas Leiva, who was not reused under Klopp, are not very good options in the eyes of the Torino manager, or are not very suitable for the current tactical play of the Torino team.

After expressing his analysis and a few suggestions, the matter was successfully taken one step further, and Valentino began to prepare for the next step of his operation after receiving a certain degree of recognition for his work. After taking care of the work matter, the two of them began to enjoy this classic Italian meal, and the dishes ordered by Li Mudi were some normal foods such as pasta, sausage and beef, so the food was quite happy, except for the fact that it was a little long, everything was perfect.

It was a surprise for the Torino boss to be able to enjoy an extra meal during the intense league season, but no one could have imagined that it would be a string of surprises. The next day, because of the evening game, the daytime training is mainly to adjust the condition and warm up, so Friday is the team's last regular training before the game. At five o'clock in the evening, when Li Mudi was about to take the car back to his apartment, his mobile phone rang, and the caller was from someone he could never have thought of before.

Born in 1991, Zhang Kangyang, the young owner of Su Ning Group, is currently one of the nine directors of Inter Milan Football Club. According to rumors, Chairman Zhang intends to let his son take over the position of Brother Monkey in the near future, that is, the current chairman of Inter Milan, Indonesian rich businessman Erik Tohir, if this news is true, then there will be the first post-90s chairman among the European giants, which is crazy!

After receiving an invitation from the prospective head of Inter, Li Mudi asked Forsina to change his route and came to a private house in a secret location. Before the car could stop, a middle-aged man from the Celestial Empire rushed over from the door, helped the Turin coach open the car door, and escorted the latter all the way into the house. This should be a private club-like place, the space inside is much larger than the outside, and the decoration is very exquisite, it seems that every corner of the world has traces of our Great Celestial Empire's capital activities.

Outside the door of one of the rooms, Li Mudi met the host who had a treat tonight, and the attitude of the other party waiting there to greet him made the Turin coach feel very comfortable, and the two people who met for the first time suddenly became close, and I have to say that the Zhang family's communication skills are indeed good.

Only these two Celestial Dynasty fellows with an eight-year age difference were eating together, and there was football, a topic that both parties were extremely interested in, so the atmosphere was very good. Zhang Kangyang came to Torino City with the Inter coach and the team of players, and he will also be present to watch the game tomorrow night on behalf of the Nerazzurri's senior management, and the reason why he invited Li Mudi to meet in advance is because he heard a lot of praise from his father about the Torino manager, so he had the idea of making friends. And in order to avoid random suspicion from the outside world, the location will be set in such a place that is not easy to be noticed.

According to the Hurun Rich List released in October 2016, their family's assets are as high as 78 billion soft girls, which are converted into 100 billion euros, which is definitely an astronomical amount. You must know that Real Madrid President Florentino's personal assets are only a little more than 1.5 billion euros, and even Abu, who is divorced and has been divided by his ex-wife, is not necessarily richer than Chairman Zhang now.

However, the son of the Zhang family does not have the slightest Celestial Empire-style rich second-generation disease, and he graduated from the Wharton School of Business, whether it is conversation or private etiquette, it is easy to leave people with a very affinity sense, which makes Li Mudi have the illusion that the other party is really an alternative and completely different from the national husband. However, after he searched for information about Zhang Kangyang on the Internet, he found out that the future president of Inter Milan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he searches a lot of news about sports cars, scandalous girlfriends, and money, although he can't distinguish the authenticity, but at least there is no wind and no waves. Fortunately, none of these rumours affected the Torino manager's personal communication with the other party, and the two men kept in touch often afterwards and eventually became good friends.

After a night of silence, when Li Mudi led the players to practice on the Olympic Stadium on Saturday and was about to leave, he happened to meet the opponent at night, and many of the players on both sides were former teammates or friends, and they greeted each other happily. The two head coaches stood on the sidelines and chatted, the 51-year-old Pioli was still the same unkempt appearance, and his thick beard didn't know how to trim well, and he was made a small joke by Li Moody. Before the start of the game, the emotional atmosphere between the two sides was still very harmonious and friendly.
