Chapter 155: It's better to break up

"Go...... Florence? Zhang Jun was frightened by Baggio's words.

"Yes, I still think so. Leave Milan, whatever way, loan or transfer, get out of there and come to Fiorentina. ”

Zhang Jun was stunned, he thought that Robbie must have thought he was in a bad mood and came to joke with him. "Luo ...... Robbie, are you currently with Fiorentina FC? So he asked rhetorically in a joking tone.

"Zhang, do you think I'm joking? When I was in Brescia two years ago, I wasn't joking when I said that. I've seriously thought about your characteristics and Fiorentina really need a striker like you. Baggio said seriously.

"Yes...... Fiorentina are still in the second division ......"

"Because of that, it's more suitable for you. You don't want to live under the public eye and pressure all day long. Then compared to Class A, Class B has much less attention and pressure. It's easier for you to play in that environment. ”

Baggio underestimated Zhang Jun's words, but Zhang Jun knew that Robbie was for his good, otherwise he would not have called him specifically. And Robbie is one of the few people he respects the most, and he doesn't have any bad thoughts about Robbie.

But...... For a person who is used to playing in the first division, you ask him to play in the second division, and he will not take it lightly anyway.

"You have a conflict with Carlo Ancelotti, and there is no way around it. Not everyone can be appreciated by the manager of your team, and if the coach doesn't like you, then no matter how hard you work and how famous you are, you won't be able to develop in the team. The environment in Milan is very bad for you right now, and if you have to stay, it will only ruin you in the end. ”

Baggio's words touched Zhang Jun's heartstrings, and he had just thought about whether staying in Milan would ruin himself. "But...... I also know that Milan can't be for me at the moment, but isn't there another team in the first division to choose from? And there are also foreign clubs...... "Zhang Jun is not talking nonsense, during this time, there are indeed some clubs that have contacted him, including Italian domestic first-division teams, as well as several teams in Ligue 1 and Bundesliga and La Liga, and even PSV Eindhoven and Ajax in the Dutch Super League have asked him for transfer or loan.

"I know that, but I personally think Florence is better for you."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hmm, Robbie, do you have any personal feelings in this? Zhang Jun asked.

Baggio was silent for a while, then said to Zhang Jun, "Yes, there is. But personal feelings aside, it's also the best place for you......"

As a result, Robbie only repeatedly emphasized that it was the best place for him, but did not say a strong reason. "I see, thank you, Robbie. I'll give you a serious look at your suggestion. ”

"Well, that's the only way to do it. I'll be staying in Italy this Christmas and you can call me anytime. ”

"Hey, I said Robbie, you must be working for Florence, aren't you? Ha ha! Zhang Jun smiled, feeling a little better.

Baggio didn't affirm, but he didn't deny either, he just smiled slightly: "Goodbye, Zhang Jun." I'm looking forward to seeing you in Florence. ”

β€»β€»β€»

"Robbie, with just a few words from you, will he agree?" Diego, president of Florence; Sitting on the couch, De La Valle asked, looking at Baggio, who had just put down the phone.

"I don't know." Baggio shrugged slightly, "Maybe he'll come, maybe not." ”

"So you're not sure......"

"I said I would recommend a good goalscorer for Fiorentina and although I can't play for this team anymore, I believe he will become the new icon of the city. Of course, only if he is willing to come. Diego, you can send someone to contact the Milan club right now, whether it's a transfer, or a loan, in short, apply to get Zhang. You're friends with their president, Galliani, and I don't think the club will stand in the way. The rest depends on Zhang's own choice, although I am his friend, I have no right to force him to come. Baggio sighed softly.

"I see, thank you, Robbie."

"Why thank me? I owe Florence so much and it is right to do what I can. Hmm, speaking of which...... Zhang thinks I'm working for Fiorentina, so should you pay me too, Diego? Baggio winked slyly at De La Valle.

"Hmm...... Speaking of hunting, I also have some tips. Do you want to listen, Robbie? ”

"Please don't change the subject, Diego."

β€»β€»β€»

Zhang Jun wrote down the names of the teams that were currently interesting to him on one piece of paper at a time, and then looked at the dozen or so notes in a daze. Yang Pan went to play away with the team, Sister Hua dealt with his lawsuit in China, and he now has no one around him to negotiate.

Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Monaco, Marseille, Valencia, Villarreal, Werder Bremen, Bayer Leverkusen, Bologna, Brescia, Parma, Fiorentina...... What should I do? Looking at these familiar names, Zhang Jun gradually frowned.

Suddenly, he swept all the notes to the ground.

What am I doing? Has it come to a point where it has to be done? As long as it's past Christmas, I'll be able to regain my main position after resting. I'll score goals and I'll show everyone what I'm capable of. I'm going to deliver on the promise I made when I came here – to win the title for Milan.

What am I now? Run, shameful escape! Leave it at that! How can I do this? If I run away, how can I be worthy of my father, as well as Kaka and Yang Pan? In the past month or so, they have suffered so much for me, how can I just leave?

Zhang Jun buried his head on the table, his hands clenched into fists. He found so many reasons, in fact, it was not that he did not want to leave his friends, he only had a few friends in Italy. For Zhang Jun, who regards his friends as his life, what else can he do without his friends?

Zhang Jun ignored his years in the Netherlands, and without Yang Pan by his side, didn't he create a huge success? Zhang Jun's surname will make him accustomed to underestimating himself, always thinking that others are better than him. In fact, his own abilities are far beyond his imagination, and if he gives it his all, he will definitely be scared even himself.

But what Robbie said also makes sense, now that I'm like this, I don't have a good relationship with my coach and teammates, so what can I talk about re-proving myself? And my presence seems to have upset the balance within Milan, and also implicated Yang Pan and Kaka. They're the hardest to be caught in the middle, right?

If I stay in Milan with my surname, then I can only hurt Yang Pan and Kaka, and I can only let the people who support me and care about me continue to be sad.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jun raised his head and looked at the note that he had swept all over the ground.

Perhaps, leaving is a choice that is beneficial for both parties.

β€»β€»β€»

Yang Pan sat in the locker room, listening to the manager's tactical arrangements, but in fact he didn't listen to a word.

"What are you thinking, Yang Pan?" Kaka reminded him softly, "If you don't remember this well, you won't know what to do when you get on the field." ”

"Zhang Jun ......"

"Huh? I'm Kaka. ”

"No, I'm worried about Zhang Jun. Now Ancelotti doesn't bring him to the away game, and he is becoming more and more silent. When I talked to him, I was afraid that I would accidentally violate his taboo. I don't know what he's thinking or what he's going to do. Yang Pan lowered his head and whispered to Kaka.

Kaka also knows Zhang Jun's current situation, but what can they do? Although he is a representative of the younger generation in world football, the best foreign player and the best player of the Italian Serie A in the 03/04 season, the new idol of the Brazilian national team. With so many titles, it doesn't help him to provide any help to Zhang Jun.

I believe Yang Pan is also distressed now.

β€»β€»β€»

"Yang Pan and Kaka have been very distressed recently!" Li Yan stood in the stands of the Estadio del Maret in Lecce, looking around at the already full stadium.

"Do you mean this game? Lecce is really good, but I think Milan should ......" Kalyani has not yet understood what Li Yan meant. Lecce has always been known as the "Little Pepper", and under the leadership of Zeman, they are even more offensive football, causing a lot of trouble for any visiting team.

"No, I'm talking about Zhang Jun's problem, as good friends, they will also be affected. Don't look at their usual performance on the field, they are actually worried about Zhang Jun in their hearts. Li Yan remembered that when he first met Yang Pan and Zhang Jun in Warrendam, the smiles of the two Chinese teenagers were as clear as yesterday, but now Yang Pan is much more mature than he was then.

Are you the only one who hasn't grown up? ZHANG Jun......

β€»β€»β€»

Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Monaco, Marseille, Valencia, Villarreal, Werder Bremen, Bayer Leverkusen, Bologna, Brescia, Parma, Fiorentina......

Zhang Jun wrote the names of the teams on a piece of paper again, and then sat at the table, looking at the names of these teams in a daze.

If leaving is the best option, where do I go?

Ajax, PSV Eindhoven...... Well, I have a lot of old friends in the Netherlands, and I often go to Mr. Basten to play against him. However, I have come out of Holland, and if I go back, and so disgraced, I will be laughed at.

So, no matter how generous they offered, I wouldn't go back to Holland.

Zhang Jun reached out and crossed out the names of Ajax and PSV Eindhoven.

β€»β€»β€»

"Less than five minutes into the game, AC Milan, who were playing away, were beaten in the head by Lecce! Young Bodinov scored a beautiful goal! Lecce leads 1-0 at home! ”

At just 19 years old, Bodinov ran through the Estadio del MarrΓ© with open arms, his eighth league goal of the season and the second-highest scorer in the league. There were rumours before the game that AC Milan had set their sights on Lecce's leading goalscorer and were intent on acquiring him at all costs during the winter break.

"It seems that the rumors are true." Kaliani looked at the excited Bulgarian shooter and said, "Look how active he is. ”

"Hmm...... Milan has made up their minds to abandon Zhang Jun. Li Yan groaned.

β€»β€»β€»

Marseille, Monaco...... Ligue 1? Zhang Jun didn't even think about it, and crossed it out directly.

I don't like Ligue 1.

Werder Bremen and Bayer Leverkusen. If he goes to the Bundesliga, Anke will be very happy because there is someone who can be his opponent. But...... I'm not trying to satisfy the masochist, the Bundesliga doesn't suit my style of play, and there's not going to be much development there. Zhang Jun also crossed out the Bundesliga team.

Valencia and Villarreal belong to La Liga. La Liga suits his style of play well, Valencia is also a team capable of playing in the Champions League, and Villarreal is not the same. So should you choose La Liga?

Zhang Jun tapped the pen on the table gently, and now he couldn't make up his mind.

β€»β€»β€»

Kaka fired a shot straight from distance, but unfortunately it went over the crossbar. Nearly 30 minutes into the game, AC Milan still trailed Lecce by one goal away from home.

"Lecce played very aggressively, and their attack overwhelmed AC Milan! Zeman is really a madman, he actually discharged three forwards and three midfielders in this game in a 433 attack formation! But so far, his madness has been successful. ”

Zeman walked around on the sidelines, not because he was nervous, but happy, excited, and he was a little smug. As the opponent, Ancelotti sat quietly in the coach's seat, watching the situation change on the field without saying a word.

β€»β€»β€»

Zhang Jun sat quietly in his chair with his hands on his chest, and he continued to stare at the note on the table in a daze.

Now there are only two leagues left, La Liga and Serie A.

La Liga suits me better, and I can easily score goals and win against a mediocre defence when I go there. Maybe you can even attract the attention of Real Madrid and become a member of the "Galaxy Battleship". Real Madrid is already starting to implement "rejuvenation", and it is not impossible to think so......

And what about Serie A? The defenders defended tightly and acted roughly. The overall defense is even more extreme here. It's not a good place for a striker to grow, and many of the best goalscorers have left here due to injuries. In just a few months, Zhang Jun has learned the power of Italian defenders, as a center forward, he has to be violated as many as six times per game on average, and after a game, the beautiful jersey is thrown out of shape.

When he thinks about his first Serie A game, he would think that the Serie A defense is nothing more than that, and he blushes now.

Basten was here, but was retired with a tackle. Ronaldo has been here, but has been brutally defended by opposing defenders and has not been able to play for two years. Henry has been here and can't even find the goal in the face of chain defense.

What about yourself? Do you want to learn from Ronaldo and flee to La Liga to dominate?

Italy's defenders are really good, but do they have to run away? Why can't you learn from Shepchenko, Vieri, Adriano and break the solid defense? Like an iron horseman, step on the chain defense that makes the Italians proud, be a striker who conquers the world's most difficult league, score more than 30 goals in a season like Henry did in the Premier League, and then win the league's golden boot to declare himself to the world as the world's top striker!

Thinking of this, Zhang Jun couldn't help but boil his blood. He was already beginning to sketch in his mind the scene when he captured the Italian gate Buffon.

I really want to listen to the tsunami cheers in the stadium again, the cheers that belong to me. Zhang Jun leaned back in his chair, tilted his head back, looked at the ceiling, and pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, which was a self-deprecating smile. Now this cheer is given to Inzaghi, to Borienau.

Are you willing? Zhang Jun can only look at the scenery of others, but he is forgotten.

Deep down, a voice asked itself.

No...... Of course not.

So do you want to score goals?

Yes, it's crazy to want to score.

But do you think it's interesting to score a goal with a casual shot?

Not at all!

You don't want to be poked in the back and scolded for being a coward who ran away, right?

No, of course not!

Very good, then stay in Italy and prove to AC Milan and to the people who mock you that you are the best! Prove it with a goal!

Zhang Jun stood up from his chair abruptly.

β€»β€»β€»

Carlo Ancelotti jerked himself up from the dugout and cheered with his arms raised. Because Inzaghi scored.

"At the end of the first half, AC Milan scored! They equalised! Philip; Inzaghi! He's been in amazing form lately! Looking at the excitement after his goal, maybe he has recovered from the scandal, which is really good news for Milan fans! Super Pippo!! ”

β€»β€»β€»

Zhang Jun didn't understand why he suddenly stood up, he looked down at the paper on the table, there were no more teams left on it. He tried to get the piece of paper, but found that his fists were clenched tightly.

Why do you clench your fists for no reason? Who am I going to fight with? Zhang Jun looked at his fists suspiciously.

What was I doing? Oh yes, thinking about whether to go to Spain or stay in Italy. It was a difficult choice to make, and I seemed to fall asleep thinking about it.

Asleep?

…… Then stay in Italy and prove to AC Milan that you are the best! Prove it with a goal!

This sentence suddenly sounded in his head.

Zhang Jun didn't know where this sentence came from, but it was very, very clear, so clear that he couldn't doubt its existence.

Does it keep me in Italy?

Zhang Jun looked down at the piece of paper again, what Sister Hua said, there are only a few clubs interested in him in Italy: Bologna, which has played for Yang Pan, a Chinese player. Parma, which is facing difficulties and wants to strengthen its strength and relegation. Brescia, who had passed by two years ago and later regretted it.

Now there's another Florence recommended by Robbie.

After a few months of understanding, I am indeed familiar with Serie A, and La Liga is ...... It's almost a blank slate. I'm barely able to communicate with people and get used to the food and weather, and even the whole way of life. If you choose to go to Spain, then it means that everything has to start all over again. But he was already twenty-four years old, and he looked down at his left foot again, and his career was ...... This foot won't give me any more time. Rather than spending another season adapting to a new environment, it's easier to stay in Italy.

Thinking about it this way, Zhang Jun decided to stay in Italy. But whether it's a loan out or a permanent transfer, he needs to choose a club.

So which one to choose?

Bologna are interested in Chinese players due to Yang Pan's successful experience there, and they should be a good choice now in the middle of the table. What about Brescia...... Brescia two years ago and Brescia now are completely different things, not just one less Robbie. Zhang Jun was no longer interested in it. Parma used to be one of the seven sisters of Serie A, what a beauty, but due to the bankruptcy of the parent company, it became a "Parma supermarket" overnight, and the popular stars in the team were sold off one by one. Now that the morale of the whole team is low and they are deep in the relegation zone, Zhang Jun has no feeling for Parma, and if he wants to choose, he will not be ranked first.

The last one, Florence.

Zhang Jun stayed on the name for a long time. When it comes to legends, she has so many more than the above three clubs, and the name seems destined to be associated with "legend". Robert; Baggio, Batistuta, Rui; Costa, Toldo...... All came out of this team that had been relegated. Especially the first two, their experiences have been talked about by fans and the media when Zhang Jun was still in school. He was also envious more than once at that time, hoping that one day he could erect a life-size bronze statue of the fans outside the stadium.

What a glory that must be!

Zhang Jun remembered how he felt during his last Christmas trip to the city.

At nine o'clock in the morning, there were still few pedestrians on the streets of Florence, and the sun was shining obliquely. In the clear blue sky, there are occasional gray doves skimming.

The city seems to be very compatible with its surname. And there are beautiful artworks everywhere, and Sophie must have loved it.

As for the team, it was recommended by Robbie, and it was where he used to fight. Although the Florence of today is no longer the Florence of his time, Zhang Jun believes in Robbie, and he does have a sense of affinity for the team that is still struggling in the second division, and always feels that their current situation is somewhat similar, and they should share the same disease.

Zhang Jun suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly. I don't even know what the other club means, but it's funny that I'm here to be amorous. And in my current bad situation, it's good to have a team willing to ask for it, why pick and choose, don't go this or that?

Although he would think so, when Zhang Jun saw the words "Florence" again, he still decided to make a self-inflicted amorous gesture without knowing the sky.

Zhang, I personally think that Florence is more suitable for you. Because of the advice of this teacher and friend, Zhang Jun decided not to hesitate anymore. At the crossroads of life, he has hesitated for too long. Sitting on the side of the road watching the red light turn green again and again, and back again and again.

If he hesitates any longer, he will not be able to walk through this crossroads for the rest of his life.

Zhang Jun, who made up his mind, took out his mobile phone and dialed Sister Hua's phone in China.

"Hey, is it Sister Hua? Are you busy right now? Well, yes, I have something to say to you. ”

"No problem, you say."

"About my future...... I'm not going to stay in Milan anymore. ”

Hua Fang was obviously taken aback: "Don't stay in Milan? What do you mean......"

"It doesn't matter if it's a loan, it's a transfer. I'm going to leave Milan, I've thought about it for a long time and I've decided. Zhang Jun's categorical tone made Hua Fang dispel the idea of dwelling on this issue.

"Well, since it's something you've already decided...... Where are you going? Hua Fang asked helplessly. At the beginning, she made a lot of effort to let Zhang Jun enter AC Milan, and she also offended Chelsea, leaving people with an image of backsliding. Now, because of a little setback, he's leaving here again. How many stars are lost in frequent transfer drifts, you know, Zhang Jun?

"That's what I'm calling. Sister Hua, I want you to help me contact the Fiorentina club, okay? ”

"Florence? That second division team? Why? Hua Fang was taken aback, even more surprised than just now.

"Uh...... Personally, I feel that it suits me better there, better than Milan. ”

Hua Fang on the other end was silent for a while: "Are you sure?" Things to do to go to Florence. ”

"Yes, I'm sure. I've thought about it for a long time, and this time I won't regret it. ”

"Okay then, I'll get in touch with you right away. It would have been easier if they had applied to Milan. ”

"Thank you, Sister Hua."

"Don't thank me, I just hope you don't regret the path you chose."

"No, Sister Hua. Because there's no turning back......" Zhang Jun said to the phone, looking at the messy paper he had scratched.

β€»β€»β€»

It was the second time Carlo Ancelotti got up from the dugout with his arms raised as Inzaghi scored again.

"Remarkable! Terrific! Brace! In the middle of the second half, AC Milan managed to overtake the score! And their greatest hero is Philip; Inzaghi! Philip; Inzaghi! ”

Inzaghi opened her arms, roared wildly, and ran wildly. That world-class shooter is back.

"The scandal can make Inzaghi more and more courageous on the court, while Zhang Jun can't even find his form. That's the difference between a thirty-two-year-old man and a twenty-four-year-old boy! Looking at the excited Milan players, Li Yan sighed helplessly in the stands.
