Chapter 674 - UEFA Super Cup (1)

PS: This is today's first update, and the 160,000 recommended plus more will be sent again in the evening. In addition, by the way, I would like to ask for a recommendation vote here, thank you......

After confirming the transfer of Bresciano, Antonioni, who was in charge of this recruitment, was clearly unwilling to abandon his intention to bring in Vicente on the grounds that the first team was full. Because in his opinion, despite being thin and prone to injuries, the young Spanish winger undoubtedly has the potential to become a first-class player!

Therefore, Antonioni made a special phone call to Zhuang Mingge, hoping that his owner would agree to bring in Vicente, and then loan him to play in the league that suits him, and then recall him for Fiorentina when he grows up.

Zhuang Mingge naturally knows Vicente's ability, after all, this Spanish winger was a left-sided Tianzun in his previous life, and at his peak, he even surpassed the Prince of Wales Giggs and Robben, who was also at his peak! If it weren't for the incompetence of Valencia's medical staff and the overuse of his early career, Vicente would not have slipped from the top of his career at the age of twenty-three and announced his retirement early at the age of thirty!

And, unlike Deisler, Vicente has never given up on his return to the pitch, despite being plagued by injuries in his career. At the same time, Vicente continued to experiment with new styles of play, moving from a traditional winger who relied purely on breaking down the flanks to an all-round winger who could cut inside to organise attacks and break through on the flanks. This means that, if cultivated properly, Vicente is more than capable of becoming even better than he has been in history!

As a result, although there were some worries about whether the thin Vicente could adapt to the rhythm of Italy's defense, Zhuang Mingge, who had a good impression of Vicente, finally agreed to Antonioni's suggestion.

If you really can't adapt to Italy's tight defensive style, then you can loan Vicente out and sell it to another team at a high price, after all, when he grows up, Abramovich and his gang have already begun to develop in the football circle, and they are not short of this dollar at all. At the same time, Zhuang Mingge thought so in his heart.

After obtaining Zhuang Mingge's consent, Antonioni immediately stepped in, buying Vicente from Levante for $3 million with Poirot, and then loaning him to Ajax - for Ajax, a large number of key players who are about to leave on a free transfer next summer, a potential star like Vicente who does not cost the club a penny (free loan, and the player's salary is paid by Fiorentina) is naturally the most popular type of player for the Dutch giant.

Of course, if the ownership of the player is owned by Ajax FC, I believe Van Praag will be even more excited.

However, Van Praag also knows in his heart that if it weren't for Fiorentina in the middle, Ajax's incomplete global scouting system alone may not be able to find such a potential young player.

In this way, as the losing party, although Vicente did not get the opportunity to join Fiorentina directly, he did not continue to stay in Levante's small club for a long time, but was loaned to Ajax, known as the "star processing factory", where he will usher in the first leap of his career!

After all, Ajax is quite good at cultivating world-class wingers, such as Repp in the Michels era, Overmars in the Van Gaal era, and Van der Meyde, etc., are all famous wing attackers in world football, so Zhuang Mingge and Antonioni both believe that Vicente will get the most professional training and the fastest promotion there!

After announcing the introduction of Australian teenager Bresciano, Fiorentina played several friendly matches with some other teams, allowing the players to gradually get back into the game, while allowing the new and old players to run in and try to form a tacit understanding.

In this way, half a month passed quickly, and the Fiorentina team finally ushered in the team's first official match of the new season after a series of warm-up matches, the final of the UEFA Super Cup between the team and last season's Cup Winners' Cup champion Vicenza!

For many Fiorentina players, the UEFA Super Cup title is nothing new to them, after all, many of them, such as Vieri and Inzaghi, have already won three UEFA Super Cup winners' medals, so they are quite calm about this game.

However, there are also some people who are excited about the arrival of the Super Cup, including Claude Makelele and Andrea Pirlo, who are not willing to miss any chance to lift the trophy!

Especially Makelle, who was rejected by Jacques because of his lack of fame, the Zaire-born French midfielder is gearing up and intends to start this game and give a look at all those who have ignored him in the past!

At 6 p.m. on 28 August, the Stade Louis II was packed at the Stade Louis II on the home turf of the Monaco club as the final of the UEFA Super Cup was still being played at the home of the Monaco club – a little too small for Florence, which is becoming more and more famous around the world.

There are a lot of highlights of this year's UEFA Super Cup, first of all, the two sides of the final, last season's European Champions Cup winner Fiorentina and Cup Winners' Cup winner Vicenza are both from the Serie A team, a "Serie A civil war" label is enough to attract the attention of many neutral fans; Secondly, the relationship between Vicenza and Fiorentina is also one of the hotly debated topics, as stars such as Roberto Baggio, Andrea Pirlo, Toney and Viljoward have all played in both teams, so it is natural that the appearance of these players against their old club will be one of the highlights of the game; The third point of interest is whether Fiorentina can complete the unprecedented fourth consecutive UEFA Super Cup, after all, in the eyes of the vast majority of fans, the strength of the Purple Lily, as the European hegemon, is far greater than that of Vicenza.

The most important thing is that as Fiorentina's well-known "trumpet" in Serie A, it stands to reason that Vicenza, as the younger brother, should give the boss Fiorentina enough face in the game, but Vicenza never deliberately let go of water when he played against Fiorentina, and almost every game was a real fight!

It is precisely for this reason that the match between Vicenza and Fiorentina attracts so many fans, and if it is known that one of them will definitely release water in the game, then even the Champions League final may not attract many fans' attention.

So, never knowing what the outcome will look like until the game is over is the beauty of a football game.

If every game was tacit ball, football would have been eliminated by other sports a long time ago!
