Chapter 8 New Season Reinforcements (First Update)

A group of teammates who had not been seen during the holidays returned to the team one after another, and Chen Yingying also met his friends Arshavin and Hamsik ().

When people get together, they naturally ask about how the holidays are going to be done, some people go to the Maldives, some people go to Mallorca, some people go to the United States, some people go back to their hometowns.

"Hero, what about you?"

Chen Yingying smiled but did not speak.

", don't pretend to be deep, say it quickly!" Hamsik Road.

"I went to Milan ......"

"Huh-" Many people made disdainful noises in their noses.

"What's so rare about Milan...... You're not going to go for the first time, are you? "Many Italian players looked at Chen Yingying with sympathetic eyes." We go there at least twice a season, and it's really not interesting! ”

"It seems that the hero doesn't know enough about Italy...... This Christmas holiday, you won't go back to that isolated ravine, right? Just stay and I'll take you to fun places! ”

A crowd of people flaunted their holiday life and scoffed at Chen Yingxing's trip to Milan for a vacation. There are also people who enthusiastically invite them to go on vacation together on the next holiday, and promise to take him to eat, drink and have fun.

Chen Yingying just laughed and said nothing, he and Ivanka's little secret will not be known to this group of vulgar people!

Head coach Mazzaris appeared in front of the players and everyone gradually quieted down as they waited for their manager to speak for their first day of training.

"I'm so glad to see you again, boys. Obviously, after a vacation, many of you have gained a lot of weight, so the first part of this training, according to the old rules, is still physical training. You've got to get back to the way you were in the middle of the season and be ready for the intense training that comes next. This season, we have to fight for qualification for the Champions League, so we have to prepare earlier and harder than usual. I hope you're all ready in your hearts...... It's definitely not an easy pre-season camp, and I'm ready to bring you to life! ”

Mazari smiled at everyone.

Mazzari was in a good mood because the club's owner, Sid Brown. Laurentiis kept his promise and began to attack from all sides, starting to bring in reinforcements.

At a time when the players are busy trying to figure out how to improve themselves, the club's hierarchy is going through a change. After Marino's departure, the club's managerial position remained vacant. At the end of the season, there was finally a replacement.

Morality. Laurentiis has brought a new manager to the team – Ricardo. Bigan (riccardo_bigon) (). The new manager is inextricably linked to Napoli, and he is the coach who led Napoli to their second Serie A title. Son of Biegun (alberto_bigon). You can be considered to have Neapolitan blood......

He was chosen to replace Marino, who had done a good job. Lawrence's move did not arouse too many people's disgust, but felt that he was genuinely building a new Naples, and did not mess around with money.

The first thing the new manager does when he takes office is to be with De. Laurentiis and manager Mazzali held a meeting at which Mazzarri told the club's head coach and manager about his plans for the new season. Laurentiis, for his part, reaffirmed his support for the team, especially when it comes to funding.

Through this meeting, Biegun also presided over the power structure of the team, as well as the blueprint for the future.

Next, he had to follow the list given by Mazzali and carry the German . The money provided by Laurentiis has gone to the world to search for players who can make Napoli strong.

First of all he needs a midfielder.

Gargano, a close friend of Lavezzi and a big admirer of Maradona, was very unhappy with the team's abandonment of Lavezzi, and has been in a transfer dispute since the end of the league this summer. Mazari's strategy was to sell him if I could find a suitable replacement, and if not, then I would be appeased and keep him for my use.

Mazzarri has his eye on Hamburg's Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong (nigel_de_jong), who could not have grabbed the Dutch midfielder. Because at the beginning of this year, Hamburg had already signed an agreement with Manchester City, agreeing to sell De Jong to the new nobles of the Premier League for a transfer fee of 18 million euros.

Unexpectedly, after De Jong went to Manchester City, he was stuck at the physical examination level - he failed the physical examination, because there was a hidden danger of injury, and he was returned by Manchester City!

This is a great shame for De Jong. He even thinks City are playing with him at all.

Having just returned to Hamburg, he suffered a serious injury in a match at the end of January, for which he missed almost the remaining half of the Bundesliga season ().

As a result, it becomes feasible for Mazzari to buy him, with players who have suffered serious injuries often cause some concern for teams that are interested in him, especially the midfielders, who rely heavily on physical fitness. Moreover, because of this serious injury, Hamburg did not open his mouth to those buyers.

So Biegun went north to Germany with the money, and after some negotiations, he finally brought such a strong player to the team at a price of 10 million euros.

His arrival will certainly greatly enhance the team's interception ability in midfield, so that Gargano's position will become awkward.

His departure was inevitable.

Shortly after De Jong's arrival, Napoli announced that Gargano had moved to Villarreal in La Liga for eight million euros.

Now that he remains in the team, the only person who has no problem with Chen Yingying is the substitute goalkeeper Navarro, but it is clear that he has lost his ally and has no say in the team's dressing room, and he is insignificant.

These moves have proved that Mazzarri wants to build a new squad around Chen Yingying.

Since it is around Chen Yingying, how can there be less wingers?

Mazzari, who is familiar with Serie A, of course, has to look for the right candidate in Serie A first, and in fact he has a goal for a long time. This time he has his eye on Alexis from Udinese. Alexis Sanchez (alexis_sanchez), the Chilean international who plays for Udinese, is still young, but he is already a star in Serie A.

Don't look at his young age, he is not small.

Udinese have never demonstrated their idea of buying young players at a low price, training them a little and then selling them at a high price, so they put a price tag of 20 million euros on Sanchez, and whichever club can afford to pay that price can take Udinese's wing elf right away.

It's just that the price is a bit high for the young Sanchez, and it scares off giants like Manchester United......

On the issue of Sanchez's transfer, Mazzari may be able to take a good look at his boss De. Laurentiis is not really willing to spend money.

That's why he named Sanchez, a wide player who can break through, and he is an excellent winger.

Now the only person in the team who can be called a winger is Arshavin, although Hamsik has been a long-term cameo, after all, his main job is to organize the tandem.

Morality. Laurenti gave Mazzari a satisfactory answer.

Without saying a word, he paid 20 million euros to buy Sanchez!

Udinese did not refuse such an offer at all. Although Sanchez was bought by Udinese in the summer of 2006, he only played for the Black Rooster for one season before switching to his team. But Udinese have made ten times as much money from this transfer - they bought Sanchez for only two million euros, and now they sell it for twenty million.

Udinese has done a good job, and many media outlets have made such exclamations after learning about the transfer.

As for Naples...... Whether 20 million is worth spending is still up for debate. After all, although Sanchez is amazingly talented, he is too young and too thin, and it is difficult for such a player to achieve any great development in European football. It's a risky investment.

But people Aurelio. Morality. Lawrensty doesn't care.

Despite the purchase of Sanchez, Mazzal's efforts did not stop.

The forward position still needs to be strengthened, at least he needs a capable striker, the future Napoli is planning to use the 433 formation, when the time is three starting strikers all year round, and their replacement? There is only one Salayeta...... This is clearly not normal ().

This time, Mazzari has set his sights on the teams he once coached......

※※※

Antonio. Cassano (antonio_cassano) is not happy with his life in Sampdoria these days.

The reason is simple, the head coach Mazzari, who valued him very much and cared for him like a father, left and went to Napoli.

This left him feeling lonely, and in the 07-08 season he was loaned to Sampdoria by Real Madrid, which was also Mazzali's first season in charge at Sampdoria, where he came on loan and had the owner buy out Cassano after a season.

Under Mazzalhi's tutelage, Cassano, who was already half a dead man at Real Madrid, was reinvigorated, scoring 10 goals and providing seven assists in his first season. Although there are still things that give Mazari a headache such as attacking the referee from time to time, Mazzal's handling of this kind of thing is different from the previous managers Cassano has encountered - he did not simply and rudely put Cassano in the cold palace and impose any punishment such as an intra-team fine or ban on him, but sat down with him and had a good talk, enlightened him like a father, comforted him, supported him, and made him realize his mistakes.

How long has it been since Cassano felt this way?

A long, long time ago, in Rome, Capello gave him that feeling, and he even called Capello his father. Roma captain Totti is like his brother and he can rely on.

But then these relationships broke down. Before he left Rome, he had long since turned against Totti. Going to Real Madrid, his honeymoon with Capello only lasted for a very short time.

It's really hard to imagine that such a rebellious player can still accept him unreservedly, tolerate his bad temper and faults, and keep telling him: "Antonio, you can still go back to the top ()!" Trust me, I never lie! You're the best star on the planet, you're just taking a nap right now, and when you wake up, everyone will be amazed at you, so do your best, Antonio! Don't stop, you can! ”

Mazzar did it, and that's what he said to Cassano.

With his encouragement and encouragement, Cassano did indeed regain his second spring, and he took a pay cut to Sampdoria, which unexpectedly became the choice of his career recovery.

He even thought that his outstanding performance at Sampdoria was selected for the national team's squad for Euro 08.

But all this became a memory of the past with the departure of his loving father, Mazari, in Sampdoria.

After Mazzari left, Cassano felt a deep sense of loneliness, and he instantly felt that there was no manager in this Sampdoria who could understand him. Despite the arrival of the new head coach Gianluka. Atezori (gianluca_atzori) continued to entrust Cassano with a heavy responsibility, but he suddenly lost his way and lost all his form......

Now, rumors are rife about him.

There has been a lot of speculation that he could leave Sampdoria and that he might be gone.

"Look, I'll just say it. You can't hope for that Barry boy at all, all his glory is only a fleeting firework, and more of a silence that sinks into the darkness. The critic is poetic, but he is mean. That is, he asserted that Cassano would never return to the top again, and that he, a talented player, would eventually sink completely because of his flawed personality.

Even Cassano himself felt disheartened, and even began to secretly think about hanging up his boots......

But at this time, he received a call from his mentor Mazzali.

"Antonio, would you like to come to Napoli?"
