Chapter 187 Old friends meet again
Gao Zheng also learned on the news that Yacini was not the team's head coach. He knew very little about this young new coach, or he could be said to have almost no idea.
On the day the team reported, Gao Zheng saw a familiar face in the training base. He shouted in surprise: "Alberto!"
A man with a big beard looked at Gao Zheng in surprise: "How did you recognize me?"
Gao Zheng smiled: "Why are you here? Didn't you transfer to that team?"
"It's Provercelli," Alberto Massi explained. "Sampdoria bought half of my ownership from Provercelli, so I came back... Alas, I wanted to surprise you, and I had a beard... How did you recognize me?"
Gao Zheng smiled: "You just had a beard, and you didn't go to Korea. How could I not recognize you?"
Maxi wondered: "What does going to Korea mean?"
"It's just going to have plastic surgery. The plastic surgery in South Korea is very developed." Gao Zheng explained.
"Koreans still like this?" Maxi couldn't figure it out.
"Sampdoria has taken back half of your ownership. It seems that she performed very well in that team!" Gao Zheng was very happy to look at the old friend he met again.
"I did a good job!" Masi was not modest either.
Because as he said, he did a good job in Provercelli.
He played thirty times in Provercelli's regular season, but only two times failed to play the whole game, and was basically the team's main central defender.
When the team entered the upgraded playoffs, he was also the main central defender, playing all four playoffs and playing all over the game.
It can be said that it made great contributions to Provercelli's promotion to the second division.
Because of his outstanding performance in Provercelli, he was also called "Little Nesta" by the media, which shows his ability.
"But taking back half of my ownership was not the club's decision, but the head coach's."
When Gao Zheng heard Maxi say this, he was surprised: "Head coach? Which head coach?"
Masi glanced at him strangely: "Who else can be there? Of course it's this one now!"
"Di Francisco?"
"Who else can be there except him?"
Gao Zheng really didn't expect Di Francesco, the newly appointed head coach, to make such a decision.
However, he patted Masi on the shoulder: "This is good news, Alberto. This shows that the head coach favors you, and you should not have to worry about being loaned or contemporary vouchers again. We are finally going to be teammates in the first team!"
Masi was also very happy: "I worked so hard in Provercelli for this!"
Club sports director Sensibile found the club's general manager Zagramora with a full face: "Rinardo, it is wise for the club to take back half of Masi's ownership!"
"What's wrong?" Zagra Mora was a little surprised when he saw Sencibile so excited.
"I just received a offer from Juventus about Alberto Masi, and they hope to buy Masi for two million! And we took back his ownership from Provercelli for only three hundred thousand..."
"Uh... But, Pasquale, we didn't take back Masi's ownership to make money..."
"Ah?" Sencibilai was stunned.
“It was Di Francesco’s idea to take back Masi’s ownership.”
"New head coach?"
Zagra Mora nodded: "Yeah."
Sensibilai immediately realized: "Is he planning to use it for himself?"
"It should be so. Masi did a good job in Provercelli. In fact, DiFrancisco told me that he hoped to make Sampdoria younger. Our youth training in the past two years has indeed cultivated some outstanding young people. Not to mention Gao, Obiang has played in the first team for two seasons and is becoming more and more mature. Icardi and Costic, both of whom are very young, which is our hope." Zagramora explained. "In addition, DiFrancisco has clearly told us that Palonbo is not in his new season plan."
Sensibilai fell into silence after hearing this.
During the winter break last season, the club wanted to sell Palonbo or loan it out, but due to Palonbo's salary, the transaction was unsuccessful. In the end, he stayed in the team, but the position had been snatched away by the young Kostic and other players. In the final stage of the season, he had to sit on the bench.
Now the new head coach says the same thing. It seems that Palonbo has to leave the team this time. As for whether it is in the form of transfer or loan, it is hard to say.
His departure can make room for young players, but he doesn't know if the young people are doing well.
The new head coach has to make such a struggle as soon as he comes out. It is good for young people to have motivation, but too many players who do not have experience in the First Division are enriched into the lineup, which may not be a good thing for the team's prospects in the First Division...
There was the European Cup in the summer of 2012, which was the most popular competition in the world football world besides the World Cup.
Therefore, many players will be unable to return to the club for pre-season training in time because they participated in the European Cup.
But for Sampdoria, they did not have such troubles.
Because no one in this Sampdoria team has participated in this summer's European Cup.
Before the European Cup ended, Sampdoria's pre-season training camp had already begun.
Gao Zheng also met the new head coach, Eusebio DiFrancisco after the report.
He really doesn't know much about this head coach, so he doesn't know who the head coach is, but when he goes to Porata to buy Focaccia, Porata will tell him what the media thinks about the head coach.
"Basically, they are all bad, and they are not optimistic about his coaching prospects in Sampdoria..." Polata shook his head. "Didn't the club say that they would not allow Yacini to continue to give advice because Yacini's performance in coaching the First Division is not very good? As a result, the new head coach's record in the First Division is even worse only once! It was last season, when he coached Lecce. As a result, after the start of the season, Lecce won two wins and two draws in the 13th round of the league, lost nine games, and was directly dismissed!"
Porata shook his head when he said this. This result can be described as "terrible".
"I used to coach in League One or League Two, and my results were average, not as good as Yachini. I really don't know what the senior management of Sampdoria Club has been thinking... This change of coach is really inexplicable!"
After talking a lot, Porata saw Gao Zheng not saying anything, and asked him: "Gao, what kind of person do you think the new head coach is?"
"How could I know?"
"He didn't target you?"
"What are we targeting me? Our training camp has just begun, boss."
"That's right." Porata frowned and sighed, "I hope we won't repeat the same mistake this time..."
