"You probably don't know Millwall? We are a London team and a new force on the rise of English football. If you follow the Premier League, it should be clear that we won the league and there is the FA ......Cup, which is not worth mentioning.

"We had a good season this past season. The club also has financial support, we need to replenish our strength and prepare for the new season of the league and the Champions League! ”

"My team is forward-looking, win the league first, and then the goal is the Champions League, probably some people will not believe it, and I don't force you to believe it, I just want you to understand our goal and our sincerity."

'We urgently need to add wide players, yes, I admit it, so I contacted you. I hope you will think about it, and with you on board, we will grow wings like a ferocious tiger...... Of course, you can imagine ......"

"I admire you very much, no, I should say adore you. I remember a few years ago, when I was still in college, I was still a fan of yours...... That's all in the past and now I'm Millwall manager and I hope to bring you to Neil Stadium as manager......"

'London, the Premier League, would be a good start, start over, you're only 30 years old, you have at least five years to play...... You will have new pursuits, new goals and dreams......"

“……”

In the hotel room, Zhang Yang kept talking, hoping to impress the person in front of him with his words--

Serra Mauro Camoranesi!

If anyone else knew that the two were together, they would definitely be quite surprised, and whether or not something happened, it would become a big news sensation in the football media.

Camoranesi also occasionally looked behind her, as if she was worried that the door would suddenly be pushed open.

He came 'secretly'.

Camoranesi was surprised to hear that his agent suddenly called him, but he was very interested in Zhang Yang, because he knew that Zhang Yang was the head coach of Millwall, and he was a young man of twenty-three.

Twenty-three years old!

Camoranesi thinks back to seven years ago, when he was not well-known, and the opponent had already led a 'team with a name never heard of', beating Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and other clubs in the league to win the eventual title.

Any player would be interested in this kind of coach, and Camoranesi was no exception, and when he heard that Zhang Yang was in the same hotel, he took advantage of the free time to take a spin after dinner.

Camoranesi did not expect to face a 'saliva' bombardment.

But it didn't work.

Camoranesi is 30 years old, he is not a newcomer to professional football, he is very immune to persuasive words, and he has his own ideas.

Now the chairman, vice president, and manager of Juventus have all resigned, and most of them have been brought to court.

Camoranesi had already decided to see the situation first.

He wasn't ready to leave.

Even if it is rumored that Juventus will be punished to relegation, he hopes to stay in the team, because he is 30 years old, and some 30-year-old teammates are still trying to find a way out, but Camoranesi is not a person who likes change, and he will not raise his salary if he goes to other teams, but after two years at Juventus, he can start to think about retiring.

That's the best option.

Even if it is difficult to play the main team after a few years, and even after the state declines, he is swept away by the club and can only join other small clubs, it will be a matter of the future, and it will leave an impression of 'loyalty' in the hearts of fans.

That's what Camoranesi thought.

So when facing Zhang Yang's saliva bombardment, his face did not change at all, his expression was still very casual, and when Zhang Yang finished speaking, Camoranesi smiled, "I'm sorry, I just heard that you were in the hotel, so I took the time to go around, and I didn't want to talk about transfers......"

"It's okay."

Zhang Yang exhaled lightly, he was prepared for failure.

'I can tell that you really want to bring in high-quality players, or do Millwall need to bring in high-quality players, are you missing wide players? Maybe I can help refer a friend to the past. Camoranesi said.

"Friends?"

'It's Gianluka, he's a defender, he can play on the wing, he's said before that he wants to try in the Premier League when he's still in form, but no Premier League club has contacted him.

"Gianluca?"

Hearing this unfamiliar name, Zhang Yang was about to politely refuse, and said that he insisted on 'I am only optimistic about you' and 'resolutely get you', but then Camoranesi said the name, which made him immediately shut up, "His surname is Zambrotta, and I usually call him by his first name." ”

"Zambrotta......

When Zhang Yang was stunned, Camoranesi continued, "If you are interested, I can help you ask, and it will be regarded as an apology for refusal." Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't think about a transfer before I came, and it wasn't until I heard what you said that I realised it wasn't for me. But I don't regret coming, I can go back and tell the other people, you are really young, much younger than I thought......"

Zhang Yang suddenly felt that he had become an exhibit, but he immediately forgot about this link and said to Camoranesi, "Zambrotta? Of course I'm interested, in fact, I'm short on the back line, he's the best defender in the world, so if you can help me give him my number, it's really appreciated. ”

"I'll talk to him. Don't get your hopes up though, Gianluca is interested in the Premier League, but Barcelona also want him. ”

After a casual conversation, Camoranesi turned and left the room.

Zhang Yang began to look forward to it.

In fact, at the beginning, he just wanted to try to 'poach' Camoranesi, Camoranesi came much faster than he imagined, but he didn't expect Camoranesi to refuse directly, and he was only 'in the mood' to come around.

Fortunately, it is not without gains.

Camoranesi recommended Zambrotta, if Zambrotta can come to Millwall, he will definitely be the role of the defender, and he is also a versatile player on the field, who can play a cameo role as a midfielder and left and right midfielder, it is worth mentioning that Zambrotta was once known as the 'world's No. 1 fullback', it is conceivable that he will definitely have a good performance in the defensive position on the wing.

That's exactly what Millwall needs.

Camoranesi's last sentence also reminded Zhang Yang to work hard.

O Barcelona!

Millwall and Barcelona are competing for talent, and it is difficult to think of any advantages, I just hope that Zambrotta really wants to go to the Premier League!

————

Two days later, Zhang Yang went to watch a Group D group match between Portugal and Angola.

This is the second round of the group stage of the World Cup.

Some people even think that Angola belongs to Portugal because Angola is a Portuguese colony, and their national team is also known as the 'Portuguese second team'.

Because of the political-political feud, the game is destined to be more than three points.

Angolan coach Koncalves also said before the game that they would do their best to stop Portugal, but it turned out that Angola did not have the strength to stop Portugal at all, even if Portugal played extremely lazy and slack, but Angola only conceded a few fewer goals.

The gap between the two teams is very wide.

Portugal were not in good form in the game, the players did not take advantage of the victory after taking a one-0 lead, however, Angola failed to take advantage of Portugal's absence to counterattack, especially in the second half, after Scolari surprisingly replaced Cristiano Ronaldo, Koncalves actually replaced his main scorer Akwa.

Akva was Angola's most active player in the first half, with two upside-down hooks fired from inside the box, and although he failed to get on the ball the first time, his second barb still startled Portuguese goalkeeper Ricardo.

However, after the game, Angola's performance was positively commented on by the media, and the Angolan players said that the match against Portugal was for the Angolan people, and despite the loss, they won glory for the Angolan people, and the Angolan people will certainly be proud of their excellent performance.

Of course, these have nothing to do with publicity.

In fact, Zhang Yang didn't go to watch the game, he just came to have a 'little date' with Quaresma, and even his tickets were provided by Quaresma.

Quaresma was not selected for the Portuguese national team, but he still came to Germany with his girlfriend to watch the World Cup.

The two have an appointment.

Quaresma provided the tickets, and the two sat together in the back row during the game.

Quaresma wore a Portuguese jersey, a baseball cap and sunglasses, and Zhang Yang also wore a red T-shirt.

In fact, Quaresma did not want to leave Porto, but he was not selected for the Portuguese national team, which hit him very hard.

And he had the heart to leave.

In the Porto team, Quaresma was the absolute main force and performed quite well, but he did not get a national team place.

Why?

Porto's impact is too small, or the Portuguese league is too small, if he can come out and play in the big leagues and do well, it won't happen.

It's like ...... C-Ronaldo?

C-Ronaldo went to the Premier League, joined the giant Manchester United, and became a big star known to everyone.

Since C-Ronaldo went to Manchester United, Manchester United has not won any championships, the league championship was won by Arsenal, Chelsea and Millwall in turn, and the Champions League results have not been broken, but C-Ronaldo is still considered the pillar of Portugal's new generation of stars with his excellent performance.

"Why can't I?"

Quaresma thinks he also wants to leave Portugal and go to the Premier League, La Liga or Serie A.

Millwall is a good choice.

Millwall are a new force to rise in the Premier League, winning both the league and FA Cup last season, and having achieved such a good result as a promoted horse has suddenly become the talk of European fans.

There are also a lot of people in Portugal who are talking about Millwall, talking about their young manager.

Quaresma had also heard a lot.

However, before meeting Zhang Yang, he couldn't remember what Zhang Yang looked like, but he knew his name and the honors he had achieved.

Now Quaresma is lamenting his flamboyant youth.

Perhaps everyone who sees Zhang Yang will make a similar exclamation.

Zhang Yang is used to it, "Thank you." I think the future of football should belong to young people. Ricciardo, come to Millwall, you'll be quick to success. ”

Zhang Yang and Quaresma said a lot.

The game lasted for more than two hours, and the two occasionally talked a few words, and there was a lot of content, and in the process, Quaresma got to know Millwall, the team, and the team's goals and aspirations.

If the general manager of a small club comes to talk to him about his ambitions, goals, etc., he will only listen to it as a joke, but it is different to publicize it, Millwall has achieved a certain success, the Premier League championship is not easy to get, it takes a long time of perseverance and hard work, and a rather brutal fight.

Quaresma's heart fluttered.

In fact, before he came, Quaresma was already excited, although there were other clubs, even giants, interested in him, but Millwall was the most sincere.

In addition, Quaresma also has his own considerations: with his fame, he may start from the bench when he goes to a big club, but Millwall is different, and after he arrives at Millwall, the competitive pressure will be much less.

One of Quaresma's biggest concerns is, "I'm worried about not being able to adapt to the Premier League quickly. ”

That's the key.

Many Spanish and Portuguese players have difficulty adapting to the style of the Premier League, and their long-term inability to adapt has also caused their performance to be seriously affected.

Zhang Yang smiled instead, "If you know my team well enough, you should know that we will develop tactics for players." ”

"Oh?" Quaresma came interested.

"This past season, Bent, Braniff, Simpson and so on, these players, each one of them had a good performance, why? Because we have a detailed strategy based on the ability of the players, they have plenty of freedom to play and not be limited by the tactical framework. Your worries are unnecessary, in fact, if I'm not sure, I should be the first to worry about. ”

Quaresma understood what Zhang Yang meant.

If Quaresma's performance is not good, the club's large transfer fee is equivalent to a waste, and Quaresma can still get his salary, and he can choose to return to Portugal for one or two seasons, or go to other leagues, and the transfer fee paid by the club will not be recovered.

The game is over.

The Portuguese fans were cheering excitedly, and Quaresma also stood up, shook hands with Zhang Yang and said, "You persuaded me with sincerity." I think you can negotiate with the club with confidence. ”

"You'll be glad you chose today!"

Zhang Yang smiled.
