Chapter 8: Nickle's Troubles and Joys
Xu Xiaoxin's signing with Atletico Madrid was uneventful, there were no reporters, no press conference, he simply signed his name, and then took a photo with Cerezo.
Hill Jr., who is the team's personal majority shareholder and manager who has been the chairman of the team, did not appear at the signing site, he sat coldly in his office, in front of the team's head coach Manzano, they have been talking secretly for a long time, and at this moment, both of them invariably let out a knowing smile.
"Happy working together!"
"Happy cooperation, Mr. Manager!"
Hill's life is starting to get busy, and now it's almost August, and if he can't find a new club willing to accommodate Xu Xiaoxin before the summer transfer window closes on August 31, maybe Xu Xiaoxin will have to wait to sink.
"Xu, what you make is so delicious, alas, it's a pity that I'm a man, if I were a woman, I would definitely marry you." Cork clutched his stomach, he couldn't eat anything.
"Ke Xiaopang, you should pay attention to your diet, if you continue like this, you will grow fatter."
"Okay, Xu, you're right, take a break, let's go out and practice, I feel like I have some ideas again." Ever since he had accompanied Cerezo to Daddy Hill's house that day, Cork felt like he couldn't stop.
He would come here every day after training, and then ask Xu Xiaoxin to cook and eat with a shy face.
It's a foodie. Xu Xiaoxin's second impression of him is this, and as for the first impression, it is the self-introduction that is like a river.
After this back and forth, two young men of similar age came together, Xu Xiaoxin thought that Cork could give him a lot of football help, and Koke because of the Chinese Xu could fill his belly.
The two sometimes go to the small court not far away to play football, Xu Xiaoxin is very happy, because every time he can feel his shortcomings and improvements.
And Koke is a standout in Atletico's academy, and every time he arrives, he attracts a lot of chasing eyes.
Cerezo's life began to become idle, and now he had no power, just the title of president of the team.
Nikkor has been a bit annoyed lately, and the team has started training camps, but there are a lot of problems. Last season, Nice finished ninth in Ligue 1, and yesterday Mr. Chairman talked to him about life, Nikkor is not stupid, he can clearly feel that Mr. President has germinated an ambition.
"Nikkle, I think our team can go further this season, what do you think?"
Although it was only a few short sentences, it made Nikkor distracted.
Last season's excellent performance relied on the wonderful performance of striker Remy, who is still very young, whether he can also play well this season, Nikkor cannot guarantee.
However, the weakness of the midfield exposed last season has not been solved until now, so how can this bring the team one step closer? Moreover, this is his first season in Nice, and who knows how long it will take for the team to be ready to fight!
As soon as he thought of this, Nickel felt his head grow for a while.
Just then, his personal phone rang, and he frowned, but pressed answer anyway.
"Hi Nikk, congratulations on hearing that you are now the head coach of Nice!" It was a strange and familiar voice, but who it was, Nikl couldn't remember.
"Thanks, who are you?" Nikkle asked softly.
"Oh, Fake, Nikk, you even forgot about me, damn it, you said you wanted me to recommend you two good players! Now even I forgot about it, hell! "......The phone was hung up inexplicably like this, recommending two good players to yourself?" Wait, who do I seem to have said this to, who is it? France doesn't seem to have one, Spain ...... Ouch, Nickel slapped his thigh hard, and he remembered. Hill is a former youth director at Atletico Madrid.
When Torres was born, he had a few dealings with Hill by chance, didn't he just jokingly ask him to recommend some good players to him in the future?
But it looks like this guy isn't mixing well now, I heard that he was made a scout. Forget it, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor.
Nickel dialed Hill's phone and asked for a video of the two players Hill recommended.
There are a lot of first videos, and the first one who appeared was an Asian young man, not tall, and his skills were not good, and then he looked at the time above, and the shooting was only about a month.
Hell, is this old man Hill here to amuse himself? Fortunately, he still had some patience, so he simply continued to watch. The video clip at the back is not very good, but it can be seen that it is the training video of the Asian youth, the video is intermittent, but the more Nickel watches it, the more interesting it becomes, this young man is really capable of learning. But that's all! There are so many players with strong learning ability, the key is that there is no picture of the game on it! Nickel blacklisted the first Asian youth.
Then he watched the second video, this is a little fat man with a little familiar face, who is it? How do you look at it more and more familiar?
Farke, Hill is making it so big? Nickle remembered who this young man was, Cork! The ace of Atletico's youth academy that many teams dream of.
Are they going to shoot Cork? That's right, it must be, otherwise how would you contact yourself? The more Nikl thought about it, the more excited he became, Koke is an all-round midfielder who is already an absolute mainstay of Spain's Under-21s. The point is, this player was born on January 8, 1992, and he is not yet 18 years old!
Buy! Gotta buy! Quote, quote immediately. Three and a half million euros, oh no, a direct offer of five and a half million euros, that Cork I wanted.
What the? Rent, not sell? Is there a mistake? What kind of plane do you want to sell?
Well, lease is lease.
Nickel gritted his teeth, feeling the need to take the risk.
Fake, you have to loan the Chinese together, and the salary has to be paid by your own club? Hey, the monthly salary is 1,000 euros, which is half a year younger than Cork......
With a total loan fee of 500,000 euros for the two, can they sign a two-plus-one loan contract? If Atletico reclaim players early in the third year, they will have to add four million euros, and an additional one million euros for each year of advance. If it is not recovered, Nice will have to pay a transfer fee of two million euros. Shet, is Atletico's management collectively brain-dead? Otherwise, how could the cabbage price throw Cork to himself. Nikl felt like his head was a little deprived of oxygen.
God really treats me well!
Forget it, anyway, that Chinese should just be attached, and the salary is not much, so it's a big deal to lose it to the second team later! Rent, rent immediately!
In this way, Daddy Hill's two children were thrown to France.
In Atletico's manager's office, Hill grinned and spit out a smoke ring, it felt so good to be in power! Now that those who oppose me are gone, my glory has finally come.
