Chapter 1257: The Story of the Winter Break (1)
PS1: This is today's update, a little late, I hope you don't care too much about the update time, and I promise that I won't break the update......
PS2: Let's talk about the book friend group here, the group number is three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, nine, verifies that the answer is NTR knight, well, that's it.
After being politely rejected by Baggio, Al Thani, who realized that it was impossible to do anything, immediately changed his goal and successively sent invitations to Batistuta, Albertini and others, hoping that they would consider playing in the Qatar league and contribute to the construction of football in Qatar......
As for the result...... Although everyone present did not make any rude gestures in front of Al Thani **** out of politeness, it can be seen from the somewhat impatient eyes of these players that the Qatari poaching operation obviously did not receive the desired effect. Compared with Zhuang Mingge's previous life, these veterans' attitude towards Qataris recruitment has obviously taken a 180-degree turn.
The reason why the attitude of these veterans has changed so much is that, on the one hand, with the deepening of the commercialization of Serie A, the financial situation of Serie A teams has improved significantly compared with the previous life, so that they can offer higher salaries to their players, so that many veterans are more willing to stay in the team than to pan for gold in West Asia; In addition, the Italian Football Federation has issued various policies requiring Serie A clubs to pay attention to domestic players and youth training, so that many clubs have begun to focus on these experienced and certain veterans, and are willing to keep them in the team. (Because most of the veterans have already acquired Italian citizenship and meet the definition of "national players" by the Italian Football Federation)
In the end, it was Zhuang Mingge, who couldn't stand it, who came forward and took the indomitable Al Thani **** off the court, which can be regarded as ending the Qatari's unsuccessful poaching operation.
In the post-match interviews and surveys, the vast majority of fans expressed great satisfaction with the first Serie A All-Star Game. After all, it was such an exciting goal shootout to see the stars of the usual division come together and play side by side, especially since Robert Baggio, who is extremely popular among the fans, was also named the MVP of the inaugural Serie A All-Star Game after the game. All of this made the fans feel very excited.
In such an atmosphere, it is naturally impossible for the Italian media to openly contradict the fans. So, in the past few days after the All-Star Game, the Italian media all praised the Italian Football Association's decision to hold the Serie A All-Star, and expressed the hope that the Football Association could continue this event and make the Serie A All-Star a large-scale festival for football fans all over the world, like the NBA All-Star Game on the other side of the Atlantic!
In fact, without the suggestion of these media, the Italian Football Federation has long had this intention. Because the all-star game not only brought a lot of attention to Italian football and Serie A, but also brought a lot of financial revenue to the Italian Football Federation, countless companies took the initiative to send a large amount of sponsorship contracts, just hoping to get an advertising opportunity at the All-Star Game.
No one is going to have trouble with the money that comes to their door, does it? Not to mention that these incomes are legal gains, and the Football Association has no reason to take the initiative to quit.
However, while the Italian media overwhelmingly sang the praises of the Serie A All-Star Game, it is clear that the media in other countries are not entirely in agreement. For example, the Germans, who have always been known for their rigor and seriousness, believe that the All-Star Game can be called a feast for fans, but this kind of game does not have much substantive significance, and can only be regarded as a very commercial exhibition game. As a result, the German Football Association was not very keen on hosting the so-called "Bundesliga All-Stars" following the example of the Italian Football Federation, and rejected the proposal at the meeting.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the rapid decline in the influence of the Bundesliga in recent years and the scarcity of big-name stars. After all, the key to hosting an All-Star Game is to have enough big-name stars in charge, the Bundesliga is already scarce, and Bayern Munich is still the dominant club in Germany, and clubs such as Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund, which have the ability to cause problems for it, have also fallen in recent seasons. Therefore, in such a situation, the German Football Association is really not equipped to hold an all-star game.
At this time, the French and Spanish media were envious and jealous, and they wrote articles complaining about their own football associations, asking them to learn from the Italian Football Association and hold the same All-Star Game next season.
But then again, the Spanish Football Federation does have the capital to hold an all-star game, because La Liga has top giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona, as well as strong teams like Valencia and Deportivo La Coruna, and there are also many stars, and the attacking style of play can also attract a large number of fans. However, the French Football Association is more miserable, because the situation of the French league is not as good as that of the Bundesliga, not to mention the big stars, even the top giants do not have a ......
In contrast to the objectivity of the Germans, and the envy and jealousy of the French and Spaniards, the English media, as always, showed their arrogance and ignorance. The day after the successful Serie A All-Star Game, the FA announced that it would host the Premier League All-Star in February next year, and confidently said in an interview that this event is definitely much more exciting than the Serie A All-Star Game!
I really don't know where the FA got this confidence to dare to host the All-Star Game at this delicate time in February next year, and they are not afraid of affecting the performance of the Premier League teams in the Champions Cup?
You know, England has always been known for its dense schedule, not to mention that at the end of February, not only will the Premier League enter a critical period of title contention, but also the Champions Cup will be rekindled. It is still unknown how many stars and clubs will be willing to give the FA the time to make this brainless decision.
After all, the operation of the Premier League is not in the hands of the FA, and if they really don't come to the stadium, the FA will have nothing to do with them.
With the much-anticipated Serie A All-Star Game slowly coming to an end under the reluctant gaze of fans, Italian football has officially entered the annual winter break. Players competing in the All-Star Game packed their bags and headed around the world for a late Christmas break with their family or girlfriends.
Compared to the players who go on vacation, the management of the various Serie A clubs is quite struggling. Because they will be showing up at their respective jobs immediately after a Christmas, they are actively making final preparations for the upcoming winter transfer window.
