Chapter 13: Distin
On the train to Paris, Fan Shang kept looking out of the car, silent, and Battistone next to him touched Fan Shang, "Why are you so silent, do you have something on your mind?" β
"No, I just think of a person" At this time, Fan Shang's mind came to mind the image of a girl, lively and generous. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It must be a girl, I'm from here." Battistone said with some ill will
"Don't worry about it, let's think about how to move Distin to terminate the contract for a while," Fan Shang shot back
The two came to Paris and found the area where Distin's home was located, and Distin's home lived in the Saint-Denis district on the outskirts of Paris, which was a gathering area for people of African and Arab descent, the most chaotic place in Paris and even in France. In his previous life, Fan Shang once saw a Chinese rent a house in the Saint-Denis area that wrote, "This house is suitable for male classmates who are not afraid of stealing, not afraid of being strong, and there is nothing to steal and be strong." "You can see the reputation of this area.
Fan Shang saw Distin's first impression that he was strong, his physique was really good, he was 18 years old, estimated to be close to one meter nine in height, and he was as strong as a cow. He's just standard black and hard. Seeing him, Fan Shang knew that if he got him over, there would be no problem with the high-altitude ball, and there would be a few more set-pieces....Fan Shang was in his head. "Huh? How can the system be displayed, it won't be effective only on the football field" Fan Shang thought of his broken system again, "Whatever, if you don't forget it, there won't be any big problems in finding well-known players in the future." β
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Distin looked at the two men in front of the door, not knowing what they were coming for.
"Hello, we are the coach of the Bordeaux youth team, and we are here for you, Mr. Sylvain Distin." "My name is Vincent and I am the head coach of Bordeaux Under-19s, and this is Mr. Battistone, a former France international who is now an assistant coach of Bordeaux's Under-19s. β
"You're looking for meβ" Distin was a little unresponsive
"We want you to join Bordeaux," Vincent replied
"Oh, let's go to the cafΓ© and talk, it's a mess at home," Distin said embarrassedly, "I'll change my clothes, I'll be right away"
"No need, we'll just talk at your house," Fan Shang stopped, "It's more relaxed, let's just talk"
Distin opened the door and let Vincent and Battistone in
"Is that so, Sylvain, may I call you that?" Fan Shang was the first to speak
"Yes"
"I heard that you didn't have a good time at Paris Saint-Germain, and we hope you can join Bordeaux," Vincent said bluntly, "although you are joining my Under-19 youth team, I will give you a place in the main team, and as long as you are not injured, you are the main central defender in the team." β
Distin was stunned for a moment, then looked down and thought for a while, "Then do I have a chance to make the first team?" β
"Yes, and it's big, I might as well tell you that Bordeaux don't have any outstanding players in the youth team at the moment, and you come to us and you have to do well and you will soon be noticed by the first team." Fan Shang continued to flicker
"Then I'm still a Saint-Germain player, so you can talk to the club." Distin has already agreed.
Vincent looked at Battistone and gestured to him. Battistone scolded Fan Shang in his heart, "You said all the good things, and I said those things that others don't like to hear." "But I have to say it.
"I heard that you are not very valued at Saint-Germain," Battistone said after a moment of thought, "They have the intention of terminating your contract, I don't understand how good you are, why Saint-Germain doesn't want to stay?" Their coach must have had a bad brain. β
"They said I was too slow," Distin replied honestly
This kid is too real, and his shortcomings have been revealed. Vincent now understands a little bit why Paris doesn't like him, it's too straightforward, and the child is too realistic.
"No, it's not, it's a bit of a slow pace that can be offset by good positioning and constant physical contact in defence, plus if you're good defensively, it's not a problem." Battistone shook his head and said, "It's not your problem, kid, it's that your coaches are so incompetent." β
Fan Shang listened to it very well, and said in his heart, "Flicker, continue to flicker, it's time to get to the point." β
'You train with me, I'm confident that you can develop your defence and make you a first-class centre-back in France, you have that potential.' Battiston continues to fool Distin.
Distin was a little excited when he heard this, grinning widely, showing a mouthful of big white teeth.
"But," Battistone was about to get down to business, "we don't have a sworn enemy in the relationship between Bordeaux and Saint-Germain, and it's not too good, I'm afraid that your transfer will not let them go." Battistone cleverly avoided the fact that Bordeaux was running out of liquidity.
Fan Shang glanced at him with some surprise, which meant "You old boy, you are all fine." β
Battistone also gave Fan Shang a smug look, "Don't look at who I am, French football is also a figure with a head and a face,"
Distin didn't see the two of them making eye contact, and lowered his head a little nervously, "Then what should I do, I can't go?" β
"I'll give you a way now, you terminate the contract with the club first, and then we'll sign the contract. Anyway, Saint-Germain doesn't plan to keep you anymore, and they won't refuse if you bring it up. All you have to do is terminate the contract with Saint-Germain, and we will sign it right away, and the contract is ready. Battistone took out a contract from his bag, which was prepared by Fan Shang, and he took the contract but the content of the contract was not rich, at least it was a sign of sincerity.
"Okay, I'll talk about it in the afternoon." Distin gritted his teeth when he saw the contract and said
"Remember, don't say you terminated your contract to join Bordeaux." Battistone advised: "If you let others know, they won't let you go, and you will always be on the bench at Saint-Germain." β
Distin nodded, and the three of them made an appointment to meet again in the evening. Vincent didn't want to go to Saint-Denis again in the evening, so he asked Distin to find them at the hotel where they were staying at night.
Out of Distin's house, Vincent and Battistone glanced at each other and smiled.
"We cooperated very well, and the two of us will work together like this in the future." Fan Shang preemptively said
Before Battistone could speak, Fan Shang had already walked to the front, and Battistone could only shake his head and follow Fan Shang.
Vincent and Battistone's second stop was Le Vallois-Perret, also on the outskirts of Paris, and coincidentally the club was located in the Saint-Denis region, so the two of them quickly found the club Le Vallois-Perret.
Levallois-Perret is a small club, and training can be watched casually, so Vincent and Batiston stood on the sidelines and watched the training on the field. Fan Shang's eyes were fixed on a big black man.
