Chapter 89(1/2)
Madrid in March is full of the drizzling spring rain.
The hot and cold weather is very depressing.
In the morning, Gao Han put on his signature black training suit and went out.
After going downstairs and walking on the wet path, the cherry blossoms on the side of the road bloomed at some point.
But Gao Han didn't notice it at all and fell into his mind.
Last night, the team challenged Elche away, two to one, and it was very difficult to win.
Zoran Nicos, who just returned from injury, was in a bad state. The injured veteran Aguilera also didn't play very well, which made the team feel the same as the weather in Madrid in March, which was awful.
Originally, Gao Han hoped to be a gaby, but after experimenting several times, the effect was relatively average.
The main reason is that he is too young, only seventeen years old.
Although Torres is one year younger than Gabi, his physical fitness is much better than Gabi and his personal ability is stronger.
More importantly, Torres plays as a forward, while Gabby is in the midfield.
Gao Han also used skill cards several times for Gabi to improve physical confrontation and defense ability. He even bought a one-star pass card specially used to improve players' passing ability.
But for the time being, it has certain effects, but it cannot be satisfactory.
At least, judging from Gabi's performance, Gao Han really couldn't directly promote him as the main force as he did to Xiavi Alonso. After all, he had to consider his grades.
It is gratifying that Roberto performed well from the original right forward to the right back.
This player has good physical fitness, can work well under his feet, and is also suitable for his age. He works hard and is quite practical.
Especially since he was a right forward, he had a good cross-legged footwork.
Gao Han also temporarily decided to let Roberto play the right back when Aguilera plays midfielder and is injured.
Since the Spanish player played the main players in the season when Atletico Madrid won the double championship, he has been hovering among the main players and substitutes in the past few seasons. Even if he was reduced to the Spanish Second Division this season, there has not been much improvement.
Now Gao Han is willing to use him, although he is playing on the right back, he is also happy.
Although professional players play for money, in addition to this, they must also attach great importance to the opportunity to play.
The biggest problem at Atletico Madrid now is not the backcourt and the frontcourt, but in the midfield.
Xavi Alonso has one less reliable bodyguard and one less solid barrier in the midfield!

At this moment, a middle-aged man came outside the gate of Mahada Enda Sports City.
I wear a suit and tie, my hair is neatly combed, and I also have hair wax. I laugh when I see someone and smoke when I enter the door, giving people a very smart feeling.
"Hello, can you ask you something?"
As the saying goes, people eat soft mouths, but people have short hands.
The security guard took the good cigarettes sent by others, so he naturally could not deal with them seriously.
"Speak up!"
"Will Mr. Gao Han come in the morning?"
When the two security guards in the security room heard this, they immediately looked carefully at the middle-aged man in front of him, who was about thirty years old, and had a little wary. Could it be a spy sent by the mortal enemy club?
Feeling the security guard's suspicious look, the middle-aged man smiled bitterly.
Have you ever seen such a handsome spy?
"That's right, I'm a Portuguese agent, this is my business card."
As he said that, he also handed over a business card that reads: Portugal's Gasdiford Agency.
General Manager, Jorge Mendes.
"Are you a Portuguese?" the security guard asked after seeing the business card clearly.
"Yes, I'm a fellow countryman with your technical director Paul Futerey."
When it comes to Paul Fottery, the relationship is getting closer.
This Portuguese is the superstar in the minds of all Atletico Madrid fans.
"I'm here today, mainly because your team needs players recently?"
"Yes, but it's not the transfer period."
The Portuguese, named Jorge Mendes, smiled and nodded, "Yes, but if it's a free agent, it's okay, as long as your club registers with the Football Association."
"Oh." The security guards knew these rules very well, but they felt that they seemed very powerful.
Seeing that the security guard was convinced by him, Jorge Mendes asked again: "Don't you know Mr. Gao Han will come in the morning?"
"Yes, unless something happens, he will come every day."
"Oh, then he is really a dedicated head coach."
Jorge Mendes praised this casually, but the security guards felt honored.
Who is Gao Han?
The head coach who led Atletico Madrid out of trouble at a young age.
After defeating Elche 2-1 last night, Atletico Madrid ranked two in the standings, surpassing Ebar and Levante, ranking seventh in the league.
During this period, the team's position in the standings was like a Rockets, jumping up. The fans were so excited that they also highly praised and affirmed Gao Han's coaching ability.
Therefore, although Mendes praised Gao Han, it was no different from praising the security guard himself.
The Portuguese was really surprised. Unexpectedly, this 23-year-old head coach still has this status in the minds of club fans. It's not simple.

Gao Han had breakfast outside the community and headed straight to the Sports City.
"Good morning, Mr. Gao Han."
"Hello."
When passing by the security room and greeting the security guard inside, Gao Han noticed that there was one more person than usual, but he didn't care and walked over directly.
But just after just two steps, I heard someone calling me from behind. When I looked back, it was the man in the security room who chased me.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Gao Han, I have always heard that the head coach of Atletico Madrid is very young, but I didn't expect that he would not recognize him for a moment."
Jorge Mendes took the initiative to apologize as soon as he stepped forward and gained a good impression.
"It's okay." Gao Han smiled faintly, "You are..."
"Jorge Mendez, Portuguese agent, this is my business card."
As he said that, he handed out a business card.
"Gasdy Ford Agency." Gao Han's lips moved and he muttered silently in his heart.
He had never heard of this name.
The biggest agent in Portugal now should be Figo's agent, Jose Vega.
As for Jorge Mendes, he has never heard of it.
But it is not worth making a fuss. In European football, there are so many people who have made this kind of food, so how can everyone know?
"Hello, Mr. Mendes!" Gao Han shook hands with him politely, "May I ask, are you having something to ask me?"
Mendes immediately opened the briefcase he had held in his hand and took out a neatly bound document from it. It seemed that he had taken some effort and handed it to Gao Han.
"I know Atletico Madrid is in a hurry to get a midfielder emergency and must be a free agent."
"Yes." Gao Han nodded, not denying it.
Paul Fottery did release the news, but no one had high hopes for it.
The reason is very simple. How can a player who is so transparent in European professional football and truly capable of getting a contract?
"As for me, I have been engaged in player brokerage in Portugal, but I have many Brazilian friends. You should know that the football environment in Brazil is quite chaotic, but I know that there are several players with good strength and they are still free."
The football environment in Brazil is indeed quite chaotic. Many times, when clubs sign contracts with players, they sign once a year, and some sign once a year, or even shorter.
Gao Han once heard this joke when he was in Barcelona: As long as someone can afford a salary, he can find domestic stars he likes and help the team win the championship.
It is conceivable how serious the wage arrears in Brazil are.
This also led to Brazilian players struggling to run to Europe and other leagues in the world.
However, Gao Han knew that this was not within his own jurisdiction.
"You should submit these information to the technical department."
Mendes nodded and smiled, "I've sent it."
Obviously, he prepared two.
