Chapter 59 - "Fight For The League Title"

While everyone in the locker room was celebrating President Luis Salvatore approached Paulo after approaching him he hugged Paulo and whispered into his ears.

"You did it! I knew that you would never let me down! I love you, my boy! I love you! You are the best! You are the best."

Everyone saw this beautiful moment in front of their eyes and this made everyone feel pleasant and happy. There were some tears in the eyes of President Luis Salvatore, he was so emotional that he couldn't hold back his tears. He was about to cry but Paulo hugged him like a son hugging his father and consoled him.

"President you don't have to cry anymore this is the moment of celebration. We have won the match now this season we are going to play in the first division! Please stop crying, president."

Marco Esposito also arrived at the scene, he kept his hand behind President Luis Salvatore and said.

"Yeah! He is right this moment is not to cry but to be happy and celebrate."

Luis Salvatore wiped off his tears put a smile on his face and apologized.

"Yeah, actually you are right! I am sorry everyone I ruined your moment."

Everyone chuckled, and later President Luis Salvatore introduced Marco Esposito to Paulo.

"Well, Paulo! Let me introduce you to Marco Esposito our club's sporting director."

After the introduction, Marco Esposito shook hands with Paulo and said.

"Nice to meet you, kid! Are you from this city or any other city in Italy?"

Paulo answered.

"No, I am from this city."

Marco Esposito said.

"Damn! Me and my scouts never saw you before. It looks like you have been playing football for ages."

Paulo replied.

"Yes! I have been playing football since I was five and before this I was playing for my school I won many tournaments in my school days then I went to my college and continued playing football, later coach Ale Piola and the President gave me a chance to play for Parma C.F."

Marco Esposito said.

"Well, college football is not made for you, the talent you got you to belong to play for a professional football team, if I had ever seen you before I would have taken you to Parma C.F. However not me but Ale Piola and our President Luis Salvatore find you at the right time. Well, good job Ale for finding this gem for us."

Later President also praised Ale Piola.

"Yes, Yes, Ale! You are the one who first found this talented player but you do not just deserve recognition for finding Paulo but also for making us win as well, you are the first person who made our team win, despite we went 2-0 down in the first half you've made us win this game by 3-2, in the end. Ale, it was your hard work and your determination that made this comeback happen I am so proud of you."

Ale Piola thanked President Luis Salvatore for the praise.

"Thank you President but being honest with you this comeback would have never happened without Paulo. Paulo is special his talent made us win today."

President Luis Salvatore turned his attention to Paulo and said.

"Paulo, you are a special talent I hope you get successful in the future and together we will achieve everything."

Later President Luis Salvatore asked everyone to sit down at their respective seats because he wanted to say something to the players. Players sat down at their seats and kept silent for President Luis Salvatore to speak.

Luis Salvatore said.

"Guys! We have done it, WE HAVE DONE IT! We are going to play in the first division this season but keep one thing in mind this is only the beginning it is not the end. We have to compete for the league title this season."

Everyone inside was dead silent after hearing what President Luis Salvatore because they thought their main goal for this season was to only stay in the first division of 'Liga De Italia' but now President Luis Salvatore is saying that they have to compete for the title. Everyone knew that it was an impossible task for them to complete but they remained silent and never said anything in front of Luis Salvatore. 

Luis Salvatore felt a weird silence inside the dressing room he saw everyone's faces and there was no excitement, he understood everything and why there was no excitement among the players. He continued.

"I know what you all are thinking, that what is the President is saying? WIN THE TITLE? it is nearly impossible we cannot do this but guys, listen we have to at least compete for the title we are Parma C.F. We always fight for titles and trophies, and unfortunately since the last decade, we have never managed to win a single title not just we never won a title but we never came close to winning a title instead we went down and down and down and on another hand our rivals are winning the league title every single year and not just league title they won the Italian cups and most importantly they won the five European cups in last ten years as well. Guys, I know it is difficult but believe me, it is not impossible, we all can win the league this season if we give our everything just like today we gave our everything today to win this match, you are amazing players all we need to do is to believe in ourselves. So everyone, are we going to win the League this season?"

After Luis Salvatore's speech, every player in the locker room was highly motivated, Cilo Eincho was the first who stand up and say.

"Yes, President we are going to do everything possible to win the League this season, guys are you all with me?"

Every single one came in support of Cilo Eincho and replied with a huge Yes. Luis Salvatore saw that there was positive energy among the players and now they will give their hundred percent. Luis Salvatore was happy seeing his player's determination and as a result, he wanted to reward his players. He said.

"Ok, then! We are going to compete in the league this season and we will break the streak of our rivals Rey del Calcio C.F of winning the league title every season but there is still time for the league to get started and before that, we are going to celebrate our victory tonight, do you all know what we are going to do tonight?"

Cilo Eincho pleasantly asked the president.

"What we are going to do president."

Luis Salvatore answered.

"Tonight WE ARE GOING TO HAVE DINNER IN CALCIO'S FAMOUS HOTEL BELLA ITALIAAAAA!!!!"

Everyone jumped off from their seats and started celebrating again.
