The next morning, Zheng Zhi, who was training at the north gate of the Capital Olympic Sports Center, saw a very familiar figure. He was not tall and his black hair was combed very grey.

The man walked side by side with Mourinho, holding a notepad in his hand, and flipping through it from time to time, as if he was selling something to Mourinho.

"Who is this guy?"

Zheng Zhi always felt that he looked familiar, and within a few seconds he immediately patted his forehead and cursed himself.

Grass!

It's him!

Hulho Mendez.

What he is doing here? He is not trying to persuade Mourinho to leave Inter Milan, right? If so, Inter Milan will really encounter the biggest trouble in history. If Mourinho leaves, he will be the leaderless.

But after the two of them walked to a nearby chair and sat down, Zheng Zhi heard the chat content of the two of them clearly.

In Portuguese, Zheng Zhi listened to nothing wrong with it.

Sure enough, Mendes is selling his players to Mourinho.

“Jose,”

"This little guy is really good. He is the new Quaresma in Portugal. It's absolutely impossible to be wrong. I even think he has more potential than Quaresma!"

???

Zheng Zhi immediately raised his ears. From this sentence, he could hear who Mendes wanted to recommend, Cristiano Ronaldo! Who else can there be, Quaresma just transferred to Barcelona, ​​and isn't he the only one who can match Quaresma?

And who is Quaresma? In the 2000 U16 European Youth Championship, Quaresma, as the main winger, led the team to win the European Youth Championship that year in a No. 7 jersey.

His perfect performance quickly won him the title of Figo's successor, and at that time, Figo was the best right winger in the world.

Barcelona may not be a good choice, but it may also be influenced by its predecessors, Quaresma finally chose to join Barcelona.

A 19-year-old boy went to Camp Nou under the name of Figo's successor, which is itself an invisible pressure and may also be regarded as one of the hopes of Barcelona's revival.

As for Ronaldo, Ronaldo is still unknown at this time, so he can only be considered a fledgling. Unexpectedly, Mendes actually promoted Ronaldo to Mourinho.

"Inter Milan needs such a talented player. Really, he is not expensive at all. £4 million, you deserve it. Don't you want a winger? He will definitely be an excellent winger. The key is that he is only 17 and a half years old. Ah, there is no better choice than this."

Mourinho's face is a little weird. I ask you to recommend a winger. You push me a minor child? Please, what I need is mature. As a player, what can this guy who is not dry now do? Inter Milan wants to defend all the champions!

"Herhao, he is too young, I don't have time to train young people. Inter Milan needs to defend glory, so it needs strong players. Maybe you are right. He is indeed very qualified and potential, but he is not a player I meet?"

Obviously, Mourinho was against it, and this time Mendes' recommendation disappointed him.

"Hey, Jose, you said he was not dry, but why did you ask me to help inspect the Dutch again? Alger Robben, is he just because he is half a year older than Cristiano and has become an adult? Please, I bet that both of them are of the same type and are equally excellent. I don't deny that Robben is better at this stage, but Cristiano is not bad, and I believe that if they play under your hands at the same time, it will definitely make your team look like a full of oil Lamborghini!"

Robben, Alger Robben! When he heard this name, Zheng Zhi instantly became the most excited guy.

!!!

Two perverts that I can't imagine!

He couldn't sit idly and stood up quickly.

"Hey, boss,"

"Are you talking about a Portuguese guy? A guy from Sporting Lisbon and named Cristiano Ronaldo?"

He took the initiative to say hello to Mourinho.

"Hmm? Do you know that child?" The question was not Mourinho, but Mendes. When he saw Zheng Zhi at this time, Mendes forgot to say hello to Zheng Zhi, and the two had never met.

Zheng Zhi then kept talking:

"I met him when I was playing the Champions League semi-finals in Porto the previous year. He came to the training ground to ask me for autographs. We occasionally had letters, so I was curious, are you talking about the same little guy? If so, that guy is really great."

"The one I'm talking about is indeed playing football at Sporting Lisbon. I'm 17 and a half years old. Are you talking about it?" Mendes smiled.

"Then... it's the same guy." Zheng Zhi nodded.

When Mourinho heard that these two guys had a chat, he finally became interested, "Zheng, tell me how outstanding that child is?"

"He often sent me videos he recorded and then imitated me to practice elevator balls. How to say that, he is not the same type as me, he is a typical winger, fast speed, extraordinary simple and rough, and few people can succeed in single defense. Of course, his body is very thin, he dribbled too much, lacked team awareness, and his foot skills need to be honed. However, as Mr Mendez said, he is indeed a genius, you can take a risk, after all, winning a genius with a transfer fee of 4 million pounds is definitely worth the money for Inter Milan?"

"How did you know that you called Mendes? We didn't introduce it." Mourinho asked a very unexpected question.

Zheng Zhi immediately said in his heart, "Didn't the photo of Mr. Mendes appear in the newspaper?"

"hehe,"

"Zheng, what you said is exactly the same as I thought, so I recommended Cristiano to Jose. He is really the best young Portuguese player I have ever met. Jose, you really have to think about it."

"In addition, the price of Dutchman Robben is not high, only 6 million pounds. It's still time for you to start now. If it's too late, he might have to join Eindhoven."

Now, the initiative seems to have fallen into Mendes' hands because Zheng Zhi suddenly joined the chat.

"Isn't it nice to fly together?"

"They are not just wingers, they can also play wing forwards, one left foot and one right foot, and Cristiano's left and right foot can be fired! Isn't it really good to buy two teenage geniuses directly? "

"It's better than your club to introduce the elderly Batistuta?"

"After squeezing, 10 million pounds will be released. Inter Milan's first team is redundant, isn't it?"

Mendes is such a great lobbyist! Zheng Zhi admires him from the bottom of his heart. And he hopes that Mendes can convince Mourinho that if Robben and Ronaldo can be brought to Inter Milan at the same time, then it would be unimaginable to train. Just like before, Ronaldinho and Ribery were in the team at the same time, it was a very dreamy combination!

As for the funding issue, as Mendes said, just deal with the players you don’t need. Now there are many players in Inter Milan who cannot play in the game, so it’s useless to keep them!

"Boss, Hurhao is right. It is absolutely perfect to win two fast geniuses of £10 million. Isn't this just like what we did last year and the previous year? We should build the team according to this idea. Robben, I remember that in 2000, he was already the best player of the Groningen Football Club. I remember a Dutch magazine specifically wrote about him in detail, saying that he is the most potential genius in the Netherlands in the next ten years?"

"If two young people join and put any center in the middle, there will be no problem with our attack formation, especially when I appear in the front!"

"Ha, Zheng, it's a pity that you don't become an agent. You know so much. Robben is really strong. Unfortunately, I can't become his agent. I have talked to his agent, but he held Robben alive and refused to let him go. He only wanted to talk to me about transfers, but he didn't want to give Robben to me. This is a money tree, tsk tsk..." Mendes' mouth seemed to be really drooling.

"Jose, take a good look. I've brought all the CDs. If you are willing to spend a day watching them play football, you will definitely change your attitude instantly. But time is really limited. I hope you will watch it today, otherwise I can't guarantee where they will go."

Once he took the initiative, Mendes's language became even more slippery.

Can Mourinho not be moved?! Impossible!

"You two said that they were so good, how could I not watch it? After assigning the training tasks later, I will go and take a look."

"If you two didn't know each other, I'm really worried that you would have lie to me together on purpose!" Mourinho joked.

Mendes glanced at Zheng Zhi and smiled.

"I think about it."

"If you can become Zheng's agent, hehe!"

...

Then, Mourinho really arranged the training and left with Mendes. He probably went back to the hotel to study the CD?

Zheng Zhi was still very excited.

If Robben and Ronaldo can be trained at the same time, I can't imagine it at all.

At the age of 17/18, it was not the time when they soared into the sky. At this time, they met, and it was extremely perfect, and then? No one knew...

-------------------------------------

Another day.

Capital Workers Stadium.

Capital Guoan VS Inter Milan.

Mourinho has lined up a very serious starting lineup to face the capital Guoan.

Goalkeeper: Buffon

Defenders: Panucci, Stam, Matrazi, Grosso

Midfielder: Sanetti, Zheng Zhi, Dibiagio

Forward: Adriano, Tony, Recoba

A rare 433 formation looks like the level of offense and defense is very high.

Where is the opponent of the Capital Guoan? Less than ten minutes after playing the game, the Capital Guoan's goal was captured, and Adriano easily headed the ball on the head of the Guoan defender.

The three goals scored in the first half were headers, one Adriano, two Tony, and three assists were all given by Recoba.

The trident looks very powerful.

So much so that Liu Jianhong, who was responsible for commenting on the game, sighed repeatedly, "Guoan is too weak and Inter Milan is too strong. It is not of the same level at all, at least three levels are different, right? Look at Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi has hardly used any strength in the game. He just kept dispatching the ball to Sanetti or Recoba, and then let them pass the ball to the penalty area. Tony and Adriano easily headed the ball to the high point."

"I even think that if a club of Guoan is in Italy, which level of league should it play?"

Liu Jianhong is not afraid of Guoan fans criticizing him...

After the change of sides, Mourinho replaced most of the main players, one was worried about physical fitness, the other was worried about injury, the third was to give other substitutes opportunities, and the fourth was to give Guoan some face.

The final result was Inter Milan won the warm-up match 4:1, and scored a goal for Guoan. The goal was the right-back of Guoan team Xu Yunlong...

As for commercial competitions, there is no need to be serious.

After returning to the hotel, Mourinho called Zheng Zhi to the room.

"I'm going to spend money to buy those two guys, but we still encountered that problem. We still have to buy a midfielder. No matter what formation we play, we definitely need a substitute for you."
To be continued...
