Red Rebels

66 Become famous overnight

God says that all people are created equal, but is it really so?

Some people live in wealthy families, and are born with a golden key in their mouths. They have no money to eat and wear, and are carefree all their lives. Some people live in poor families, and they have to know how to work hard for life from a very young age. However, they work so hard that in the end they may not be able to afford three meals a day.

Is this fair?

To a certain extent, this is fair, because a carefree rich man may not be really happy, but a hard-working poor man may not laugh. The key depends on his mentality.

Some people say that contentment always brings happiness, but in fact the vast majority of people are dissatisfied. Of course, when we evaluate successful people, we will call their dissatisfaction aggressiveness or ambition.

Andre Asa is this type

As the best player of the Russian League in O4 and O6, he has always been the star of the Zenit team. He is a well-known player in Russia and the soul of the Russian national team, but he still feels dissatisfied. .

As the star player of Zenit, Asa has always been eager to go abroad and play for higher-level teams in Europe to prove his strength. He has always been a fan of Barcelona, ​​but Zenit and Barcelona are in the sky. Land, the former is not even a top team in Russia.

At first, Asha had the opportunity to switch to the domestic giant Spartak Moscow. This is a team that often participates in the European Champions Cup. Asha was very eager to have the opportunity to show himself on the top stage in Europe, but the club ultimately refused. His transfer, which annoyed him.

But there is no way, Asa is just a player after all, he can't match the club's contract.

The Russian league does not span the New Year. The season generally starts from the beginning of the month and ends in the month, avoiding the coldest months in Russia.

The first half of this season did not go well for Zenit. Aspiring to win the championship, Zenit's results of 5 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses were indeed a bit bad. Asa was even more disappointed with the lack of boldness of the club's top management, because He would never allow his team to be ranked 9th, especially in this round, losing to Spartak Moscow in an away game.

Asha scored a goal for Zenit in the 0th minute after the opening, but then Spartak Moscow scored three goals in a row to achieve a reversal. This made Asha angry for no reason, especially at the performance of his teammates.

In this team, as captain,

Asha does have the power and qualifications to be annoyed

After the game, Asha left the field directly without noticing that in the stands of Spartak Moscow home court, the scouting director of the Red Rebels was looking at his performance in this game.

…………

…………

"How is it?" Xiao Yu asked Boas with concern.

The latter had previously collected relevant information about Asha through the Red Rebels' scouts in Russia. This time he rushed to Moscow in person to watch Asha's game live, hoping to further determine Asha's strength.

"Yes, Zenit's tactics revolve around him, which gives him a lot of freedom on the court. He is very calm with the ball and organizing. He also has considerable passing skills. He has good through balls. Good coordination in a small area, excellent dribbling skills, not very fast, but very distinctive in dribbling.”

Boyas's eagle eyes have identified countless stars for the Red Rebels. If outsiders knew that someone in the Russian League could get such an evaluation from Boyas, they would probably swarm to join him, and Asha's worth would immediately double.

"But what surprised me the most was his ability to read the game on the court. He was very good and his running support was very smart. His teammates couldn't keep up with him at all. He always ran out of the gap but failed to pass the ball. His ability to control the game with his feet is also pretty good.”

It can be seen that Boyas has a good overall evaluation of Asa, especially his role on the court. He can play any position in the frontcourt, and he can play both wings and roads. At the same time, he can also play Shadow front.

"Are there no shortcomings?" Walsh felt that Boyas was exaggerating.

If he is so good, how could such a player be buried in the Russian league? Why have I never heard of Asha in European football before?

Not many people say that this is an era without secrets, especially in football.

Generally talented players start to be noticed by the media when they are about 6 years old, and then they start endless hype, and then they switch to wealthy clubs. Some of them succeed and become first-class stars, while some do not and become injured players. Over time, football has become more and more routine, and competitions have become less and less surprising.

Asa is already 6 years old. If he is really a talented star, then why has he never been noticed?

This is indeed a very puzzling thing. Even Xiao Yu finds it strange. Perhaps the only explanation is that he plays in Russia, a world of ice and snow, and his team is Zenit, which often fails to participate in European competitions. This makes him Although it is famous in Russia, it is not well-known in Europe.

I believe that in Xiao Yu's previous life, if he had not experienced Zenit's UEFA Cup victory and Russia's outstanding performance in the European Cup, Asa would not have realized that he could have a huge repercussions in Europe. I am afraid that even him now He didn't even know how strong he was, so he didn't use his full strength at all.

This is why he has always been eager to join an overseas team.

But on the other hand, Asha is also afraid. After all, he earns the top salary in the Russian league in Russia. Even if he goes to a European giant, it is considered an upper-tier salary. If he ventures overseas, he may be able to fetch water from a bamboo basket. , a loss, and the fact that he was not familiar with the top teams in Europe caused him to be buried.

But in Xiao Yu's previous life, he helped Zenit win the UEFA Cup and performed brilliantly in the European Cup, making everyone recognize the name Asha and letting everyone see his strength, so at this time he Only then did I have the confidence to leave Russia.

Regarding Walsh's doubts, Boyas smiled bitterly. In fact, he had doubted this before, "Of course he can't have shortcomings, such as his lack of physical resistance, short stature, insufficient physical fitness, etc. These are all It’s his shortcoming, but relatively speaking, he is very good at using his strengths to make up for his shortcomings, which is very valuable for a player.”

Players are just like a team's tactics, they cannot be perfect. Good team tactics are to use their strengths to cover up shortcomings and then defeat their opponents, and the same is true for good players.

“I watched Zenit’s away game against Spartak Moscow. Zenit performed poorly throughout the game, but even if the goal was deducted, Asha’s performance throughout the game was still impressive. What’s remarkable is that he ran into gaps many times, but his teammates failed to pass the ball to him in time and cooperate with him.”

"Later on, Zenit was suppressed throughout the game and the defense shrank, so Asha did not have many opportunities. In addition, Spartak Moscow sent a defensive midfielder to focus on Asha, so his performance was very poor, and the team was also It’s a reversal, but I still think he’s a very good player.”

Speaking of this, Boyas couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu with admiration. In general, based on the videos and information sent by the scouts, and Boyas personally watching the game, he felt that Asa was an outstanding player. Not a superstar, but a very good player indeed.

But unfortunately, he is 6 years old, and his age has become a further obstacle for him. It is estimated that it will be difficult for him to reach higher heights in his life. If he joins the Red Rebels, he can compete with the current Aguero, but once Kaká recovers and regains his form. Once Aguero continues to improve, he can only serve as a substitute before the end of the year.

Don't think that Boyas is just talking. In fact, a player's achievements can often be inferred from some of his circumstances.

"So, do you think Asha can fit the team's current configuration?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

Boyas nodded, "He will make Jose satisfied and make Aguero, Ronaldinho, Messi, and even Cesc Fabregas feel the pressure."

Because Asha is a very good all-rounder

"Is there any chance with Zenit?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

"I have understood that although Zenit is ambitious, their results have never been outstanding. In addition, their performance in the first half of the season was average. As long as we can bid to impress Zenit, Asha's transfer will not be a problem."

Selling Asha will provide a sum of money that can be used to find cheaper stars to strengthen the team. This is indeed a business for Zenit in the Russian League.

"What's the price?" Xiao Yu asked casually.

Now that it is confirmed that it is Asa, no matter how much the price is, Xiao Yu doesn't think it is a problem, because if he wins Asa now, he will make money no matter what. When he performs well in the European Cup next year, won't he be worth a hundred times immediately?

Of course, Xiao Yu is also wondering. If the Red Rebels purchase Asha now, they will inevitably push the Russian Czar to the mainstream European media and fans in advance. By then, the surprise of the European Cup will be gone. I don’t know how Asha will perform by then. Can we still excel as always?

"About 5 million pounds," Boyas said with certainty.

That is 7.5 million euros. This price is indeed acceptable for Asha, who has been the best player in the Russian League twice. After all, he has never experienced a UEFA Cup championship or a European Cup glory at this time. The most important thing is Unfortunately, Asha was unknown at this time.

"Well, let's leave this matter to the Ministry of Commerce and let them talk to Zenit." Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yu can get rid of all these headaches as soon as he can.

When Mark David received Xiao Yu's instructions, he called Zenit Club with doubts.

The other party was obviously shocked. They never expected that the Red Rebels, who were so high in European football, would call them. They almost thought it was a fan playing a prank. Fortunately, Mark David later proved his identity on the phone, and Caller ID also proved that the call was indeed coming from Manchester.

Zenit's chairman personally held talks with Mark David. When the other party heard that the Red Rebels were interested in acquiring Asa, Zenit was hesitant. After all, Asa is the core figure of their team, and the team's tactics Everything revolves around Asha.

However, it is not difficult to understand that if he is not the best star of the team, the Red Rebels may not like him, and Asa's recent performance is indeed good, scoring in three consecutive games, and he is in good condition.

On the phone, Mark David expressed the sincerity of the Red Rebels and at the same time gave an offer of 4 million pounds, which is 6 million euros. This is just a drop in the bucket for the Red Rebels, but for Zenit Club It's not a small sum of money.

You know, even Spartak Moscow, who knew Asha's strength well, was only willing to pay 5.5 million euros. At that time, Zenit hesitated for a long time, and the Red Rebels are a European giant after all, and they are better than Spartak Moscow once they make a move. Dake is 500,000 euros higher, which really shows the sincerity of the Red Rebels.

Perhaps seeing that the Chairman of Zenit was still a little hesitant, Mark David said in a nonchalant tone that he could let the other party think about it carefully, as he still had something to do, and then hung up the phone.

It seems that this guy is proficient in negotiation skills and understands that the more nervous and attention you pay, the more the other party will want to raise the price, so he simply pretends to be nonchalant and lets the other party guess.

Sure enough, Chairman Zenit hesitated for a day, and when he saw that there was no movement, he became anxious.

At this time, Mark David sent a quotation fax, saying that the Red Rebels would only pay up to 4.5 million pounds, and would give up if the price was higher. This made the chairman of Zenit dare not hesitate any more and immediately replied to the fax, Said to allow the Red Rebels to negotiate with Asa's agent.

After receiving the reply, Mark David immediately contacted Asha's agent, who had already received news from Zenit that the Red Rebels were interested in Asha. When he received the call, it was already clear that the two The clubs have already reached an agreement, it just depends on the players' own requirements and negotiations.

On one side are unknown Russian stars, and on the other side are the top teams in European football. Everyone can tell how the negotiations were conducted, and the Red Rebels did not show off the airs of a wealthy team at all, but the third One conversation led to a salary contract that was slightly higher than Asha's salary in the Russian league.

Without much thought, Asha nodded and agreed to switch to the Red Rebels when he received a call from his agent. Especially since Mark David promised on behalf of the club's head coach Mourinho that Asha would be given the right to compete for rotation. , which made Asha eager to join the Red Rebels.

Everyone knows that joining the Red Rebels means becoming famous overnight, which means that you will attract the attention of all fans around the world, because the Red Rebels themselves are the best team in the world.

But at the same time, when the Red Rebels announced this transfer of only 4.5 million pounds, the media and fans across the UK, Europe, and even the world were doubting that this guy named Asha could really replace Kaká. Role within the Red Rebel Army?
