Marano heard that Sampdoria had rejected Inter Milan's offer to Icardi twice in a row. He knew that Sampdoria would not let Icardi go so easily, after all, she also scored fifteen goals last season.

But Icardi must leave again and cannot stay in Sampdoria.

So he decided to go and have a good talk with Zagramora and tell him the players' strong desire to leave Sampdoria.

"Why must we leave?" Zagramora asked after hearing Marano's words. "In fact, the club is planning to give Icardi a new contract, and there will be a significant increase in both the bonus and salary..."

Marano sneered in his heart, how much can Sampdoria, a poor club, be even if it is improved?

But he did not show his inner contempt for Sampdoria, but shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if you have money, Mr. Zagramora. What my players want is the core position, not always living in the shadow of someone."

Zagramora understood as soon as he heard this. Icardi was dissatisfied with the attack on Gao Zheng. But the core of this was not something he could give? Even if he convinced head coach Di Francesco, there was also the mountain Gao Zheng.

It is absolutely impossible for Icardi to succeed if he wants to steal the core position from Gao Zheng.

However, he did not tell Marano his thoughts, but spread his hands helplessly and said, "I can't make the decision. Why don't I call Di Francesco and you guys have a good exchange?"

Marano waved his hand: "There is no need for this, Mr. Manager. I just tell you that no matter what, Icardi must leave Sampdoria. I hope the club will not make things difficult for him in this matter. In fact, his departure is a good thing for you. Because he can bring a considerable transfer fund for the club."

Zagramora heard the agent's sarcasm of Sampdoria's financial situation, but he did not respond to it, saying: "But in Mr. Di Francesco's plan, Icardi is a very important player."

"But I remember Sampdoria is not a club with the head coach-based responsibility system? Isn't you the final decision on the transfer?"

"The club should also fully respect the head coach's opinions."

"Then convince him, Mr. Manager, I believe you are the winner of this club."

After a moment of silence, Zagra Mora nodded and said, "I will have a good talk with him, but I don't guarantee that the result will be as you wish."

"I'll wait for your good news, Mr. Zagramora."

After Marano left, Zagramora frowned and thought for a long time, and finally picked up the phone and called Di Francisco to his office.

"Icardi's agent said he was leaving?" After Di Francesco came, he was surprised to hear the news.

"Well, he doesn't want to continue living in the high shadow."

"But in my plan, their forward combination is the key to our good results in the new season!" Di Francesco was a little excited.

Zagramora waved his hand and signaled him not to be excited: "Sit down and sit down."

After sitting down, Di Francesco thought for a while and said, "Will it be that he wanted to lay the groundwork for asking for a huge price during the contract renewal?"

"In my experience, it's not. Icardi does want to leave. I even feel that they have contacted Inter Milan in private..."

"This is a violation!" Di Francesco became excited again.

Zagramora's subordinates pressed: "Of course, it's illegal, but everyone knows it's not unusual. I just want to ask you, is it definitely not possible without Icardi?"

When Di Francisco heard this, he knew that in the manager's heart, he might have made a decision. Of course, he could argue with the general manager to make the importance of Chen Icardi and even threaten him with his coach position, but this was useless. The final result was that he was fired by the club and Icardi was also sold.

At this time, he calmed down, thought carefully, and told Zagramora: "If there is no high, it will definitely not work."

Zagramora sighed: "That is, it's okay to lose Icardi..."

"There will definitely be an impact, and the impact is quite large..."

"But it's not unbearable. If Icardi can bring us more transfer funds, maybe we can find another good partner for Gao." Zagra Mora said with his hands spread out.

"Good players are not that easy to find." Di Francesco reminded Zagramora.

"But the forced melon will not be sweet either. If we force Icardi, I am afraid it will have a negative impact on the team."

Di Francesco did not nod, and he expressed his attitude to the team's general manager with silence.

Zagramora didn't say anything when he saw this. In fact, the cooperation between the two of them was generally harmonious and successful last season, otherwise the team would not have been able to win the third place in the league. He was unwilling to offend the head coach. Finally, he said: "I promise you that after Eusibio Icardi, I will not sell any player you wrote on that list that you are not willing to sell. I also hope you can understand the difficulties of running a club. After the old chairman passed away, Eduardo's attitude was swaying, and we had to rely more on ourselves, rather than the blood transfusions of the Garone family. You didn't let me sell high, so I refused a dozen quotes about high, and Icardi is the most popular player in the transfer market besides high, and he can bring a considerable income to the club..."

Di Francisco raised his hand and interrupted Zagramora's complaint: "Since you have made a decision, it's useless for me to persuade you, right?"

Zagramora did not answer, but just smiled.

"If Icardi must leave, let him go." Di Francisco stood up and left the general manager's office.

He suddenly realized that Icardi could be sold this summer, so will he say goodbye to Gao Zheng next summer?

This summer, because of Gao Zheng's own attitude, the club did not touch Gao Zheng. So what about next season? Who is right? Gao Zheng himself only said that he will definitely be in Sampdoria this summer, and did not say that he will stay in Sampdoria forever.

Sampdoria is indeed a small temple, and it is difficult to keep talented players. This is not Zagramora's fault, and there are many difficulties in maintaining the operation.

He could only comfort himself, at least Gao Zheng is still there in the new season. Yes, as long as Gao Zheng is still there, he will still have the confidence to lead the team forward.

But what if Gao Zheng is gone?

On the day the team reported, Gao Zheng met Icardi and he took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, Mauro, how are the holidays?"

Unexpectedly, Icardi said to him: "I'm here to say goodbye to you, Gao."

"Farewell? What does it mean?" Gao Zheng didn't react at once.

"I plan to leave Sampdoria."

"Why? We are going to participate in the Champions League in the new season!"

"I don't care whether the Champions League is or not. To be honest, the team I'm going to have no chance to play in the new season."

"Then why do you want to go?" Gao Zheng was stunned.

"It's all because of you."

Gao Zheng spread his hands and said in surprise: "Why is it related to me again?"

"You know, I want to beat you. But we are on a team and I can't do that. Only by leaving Sampdoria and being your opponent can I really have a chance to beat you."

Hearing Icardi say this, Gao Zheng showed a helpless expression. He did not expect that Icardi actually wanted to leave Sampdoria because of him.

"I thought we were friends, Mauro..."

"No, we are opponents, I have always regarded you as an opponent, Gao, I dream of defeating you!" Icardi was a little excited.

"Is it not good to be a teammate? Mauro, we can work together to lead Sampdoria to create more brilliant results, and it is not impossible to win the championship..."

Icardi shook his head and interrupted Gao Zheng: "Do you think I am not qualified to be your opponent, Gao?"

Gao Zheng was surprised: "Why do you say so?"

"Otherwise, why are Salavi and Cavani all your opponents, but I can't become your opponent?" Icardi looked straight into Gao Zheng's eyes. If Gao Zheng avoided his eyes when answering him, it would mean he was lying.

But Gao Zheng did not look away, but looked at Icardi sincerely: "But they are not my opponents either, Mauro, I don't regard them as opponents."

"..." Icardi didn't expect Gao Zheng to answer like this, which made him suddenly not know what to say.

Thinking about Gao Zheng's performance in the shooting list, he seems to be really not good enough, Salave, Cavani and others take it seriously...

It was just that this idea made Icardi even more popular, and he suddenly didn't want to talk to Gao Zheng anymore.

"Anyway, I left Sampdoria to defeat you, beat you in the game, beat you on the scorer list. I don't have to assist you again this time!"

After leaving such a sentence, Icardi ignored Gao Zheng and turned around and left.

Gao Zheng stared blankly at Argentina's back as he left.

He knew Icardi had always wanted to defeat him, but he felt that this was too nonsense. They were teammates and wanted to help each other. What's the point of who defeated who?

He just thought it was Icardi's childishness at the beginning, but he didn't expect that the other party would not grow up, and his obsession was so strong that he could not help but transfer and leave because of this.

So in the final analysis, it was myself who caused Icardi's departure?

Is this a bit ridiculous?

Icardi, this kid, really doesn't look back without hitting the wall.

He had seen how stubborn Icardi was, so he couldn't say anything else.

If the media knows about this, they might be labeled as "the ball is dominating and genius teammates away" and make a big news.

Gao Zheng shrugged his shoulders and shook his head.
