In January 2007, Ronaldo finally joined AC Milan after moving through a number of teams, becoming a sworn rival of his favorite team.

After joining AC Milan, he also asked the club for the number 9 shirt.

But in the end, his wish did not come true.

On the one hand, the alien is not what it used to be, and he is no longer the world's best striker.

Moreover, Milan's No. 9 belongs to Italy's legendary striker Inzaghi, and it is impossible for him to give up No. 9.

And several other traditional front-court numbers are also famous.

No. 11 is draped in the body of future hope Gilardino, and No. 10 belongs to Seedorf, who has just renewed his contract, and these are impossible to give Ronaldo.

So in the end, Ronaldo chose the biggest number - 99.

This also became an interesting story at the end of Ronaldo's career.

And in the Juventus team, there was also a shirt anecdote.

In the parallel world of later generations, in the summer of 2012, Danish striker Bendtner joined Juventus on a loan-to-buy basis, and when the Danish boy first arrived at Juventus, he opened his mouth to ask for Piero's number 10 shirt.

"I will be the best striker in the world in the future, there is no one!"

Of course, in the end, Bendtner didn't get the number 10 shirt he wanted, but despite this, from that day on, Bendtner got the nickname "Confident Emperor". His confident rhetoric has filled his entire career.

And the parallel world of the same later generations, this summer Raul joined Schalke 04, and the No. 7 shirt in Schalke 04 at that time was the Chinese player Hao Junmin.

But in the end, in order to fulfill Raul, the club forcibly took Hao Junmin's No. 7 jersey and gave it to Raul, and Hao Junmin could only say in an interview that he took the initiative to give up his jersey number.

This incident once made Yun Sheng sigh.

was forced to give up the No. 7 jersey that represented the identity of the main team, no one would be happy, but Hao Junmin could only make compromises, which was the true portrayal of Chinese players in Europe at that time.

And in the current Juventus team, Yunsheng will never allow this kind of thing to happen. Even if you want to make adjustments, you must consult the players, otherwise you must not forcibly snatch the jersey and chill the hearts of the players.

Ballack's No. 13, Guti's No. 14, Bonucci's No. 2, Metzelde's No. 4...... After a series of player clean-ups, the shirt numbers were all vacant, and after the departure of the previous players, several new signings got their desired numbers.

And Diego's number has also changed from the previous 28th to the current 11th. The number worn by Juventus legend Nedved, which symbolizes the main attacking player, also represents what Yunsheng expects from him in the new season.

The only thing that was a little tricky was the number 7 jersey.

According to the Juventus club's thinking, the number 7 shirt will definitely be given to Raul, there is no doubt about it.

But the current No. 7 shirt belongs to the veteran Sari Hamikic, and after Raul joined the team, he has been recovering from injuries, and has not participated in pre-season joint training and friendly matches, let alone made any explanation for the shirt number.

As the team's sports manager, Marotta once suggested that Yunsheng directly exercise the full strength of the head coach and forcibly arrange the No. 7 jersey to Raul, but Yunsheng refused.

When a reporter asked about this, Yunsheng replied directly: "In the current Juventus team, there are no big-name stars, only united players; No one jersey number has to belong to anyone, only mutual respect. As a new signing, if you forcibly take away the jersey number of the team's veterans, it will definitely have a bad impact on the new signings and even affect the unity. So in my team, the shirt number is just an ornament, it doesn't matter, it's the love of the players and the solidarity of their teammates. ”

Yun Sheng's speech touched many people, and in Liu Surong's related reports, he also praised Yun Sheng's behavior.

"It's very common in European clubs to give up their shirts to the main players and big stars in the team, because in this football world, strength is everything, and the weak don't even have dignity. Some people may think I'm exaggerating, but if you're interested in asking former Inter striker Zamorano, you know what it means. ”

"For a player to take away his shirt is like taking away his face. And Juventus' new coach Yunsheng perfectly saved the player's face. In European football, I didn't see Western liberalism, I only saw the spirit of Chinese tolerance brought by Yunsheng - no player is unimportant, everyone has their own dignity, Yunsheng has done it. ”

In the face of Yunsheng's attitude, Raul also privately told Coach Yunsheng that he would not forcibly ask for the No. 7 jersey, and agreed with Yunsheng's statement about the unity of the team.

But unexpectedly, the veteran Sari Hamikic made a public statement: "I am very grateful for Yunsheng's respect, he is a great head coach." But I'm willing to give up the No. 7 jersey and let the Lord of the Rings legend continue. ”

Yun Sheng called Sari Hamikic: "Man, you don't have to be like this, no one can snatch your jersey number in front of me. ”

"Sir, I'm already very touched to hear you say those words, as a veteran who is about to retire, I am content to be treated with this kind of respect," Salihamikic thanked Yun Sheng, and then expressed his wishes, "I am suffering from injuries now, even if I play next season, there are not many opportunities, instead of letting the No. 7 shirt be dusted on the bench, it is better to let Raul wear him, let the No. 7 shirt fly on the field, and he can also bring more attention and commercial value to the club, I think it's best to do that. ”

Listening to Salihamikic's words, Yun Sheng sighed and said with emotion: "With loyal players like you in the team, if I can't bring you the championship, I really deserve the trust of the club and everyone." ”

After going around and around, the No. 7 jersey was still assigned to Raul, and the result was very happy.

In addition to a few top new signings, the other signings also got the numbers they wanted.

Huaguo captain Zheng Zhi chose the number 27, which is his number at Celtic last season, and the purpose of his choice of this number is to hope that he can continue his previous performance and continue to stay abroad.

Yu Dabao wore the number 22 jersey, which was his favorite number, and there was no one. In the parallel world of later generations, he played with this number most of the time for club and country.

And players such as Barzagli, Pepe, and Motta also got their favorite numbers.

Juve's jersey numbers and first-team squad for the new season are officially confirmed!
