Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

When making such an important decision, Nagi felt very confused. He wanted to call someone to discuss it, but he didn't know who to call. Whether it was the coaching teacher Magritte, Antonis, or his good friends Rennie and Beth, it didn't seem to matter.

At this time, his eyes turned to the chat software in the lower left corner of the computer, he opened the chat interface with Mio involuntarily, and sent a sentence "Are you there?"

After sending it out, he regretted it a little. It was ridiculous that he wanted to discuss it with a little girl.

Surprisingly, Mio replied quickly, "I'm here." She also attached a cute expression, and Nagi's depression seemed to ease somewhat.

"You replied really fast. It should be almost eleven o'clock in the evening in Japan now? As a sophomore in high school, you should go to bed early and get up early, study hard, and don't always play with the computer." Nagi looked preaching .

Nagi sent another emoticon sticking out her tongue, and then said: "Onii cahn, your tone is like my father's. You are obviously only one year older than me. I am studying hard. I saw you looking like you want to chat with someone." look, I will reply to you."

Nagi was very surprised. How did Mio know that she was troubled and wanted to chat with someone, so she typed: "How do you know that I want to chat with someone?"

"Usually you don't send messages to me at all. I send messages to you. Now you take the initiative to contact me, and you must have no friends in Japan, so I conclude that you must have something to talk about, say Come on, ."

Nagi shook his head with a wry smile. Nagi is really a smart little girl. After hesitating for a moment, he typed a long paragraph to introduce the transfer choice he was facing now, but felt that it was inappropriate. Mio was alone in this situation. How can a layman understand?

So he deleted all the conversations, thought for a while, and then typed a sentence: "I am facing a major decision that will affect my future career, so I am hesitant."

After sending this message, it took a long time for Mio to reply: "When I watched your game for the first time, I was attracted by your appearance, not because of your excellent skills, nor because of your wonderful goals, but because In a group of strong black and white players, you play with confidence and ease."

"This kind of confidence seems to have penetrated into the bone marrow. I can see it every time you dribble, every confrontation, and every shot."

"Onii cha , no matter what decision you make, I just want to say, please maintain your confidence. I, and many Japanese fans, are supporting you behind my back."

After Nagi read this passage, he couldn't calm down for a long time. That's right, why can't he be more confident? I have super senses and a tough physique that other people don't have. If you add hard training, there is nothing to worry about. of.

In order to further impress Nagi, Moratti also invited him to Italy to experience the football atmosphere of Inter Milan, so Nagi and Balmond came to the ancient Italian city of Milan with them.

Milan is not only a famous historical and cultural city in the world, but also a center of fashion and art in the world. When driving through the streets, you can see ancient churches, theaters and other buildings everywhere, as well as high-rise buildings with distinctive designs. The combination of the two creates a strong visual impact.

Nagi's first stop was the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium in the San Siro area. This is the home stadium shared by AC Milan and Inter Milan. Standing in front of the stadium, the most eye-catching thing is probably the few thick and thick bars on the outside. Spiral uprights.

Although Nagi doesn't understand design, he can feel the designer's unique ideas. The accompanying staff introduced: "This football stadium has a history of 76 years. After two renovations, the total attendance has reached 80,000 people."

This surprised Nagi. He couldn't imagine what a spectacular scene it would be if the entire stadium was full. In some cases, it can reach more than 70%.

Then, under the guidance of the staff, Nagi visited the museum in the stadium, which contains the great history of the two Milan teams. Nagi saw the league championship, cup championship, Europa League championship won by Inter Milan, and of course There is the Champions League.

The staff noticed Nahis gaze, and he said helplessly: "The last time Inter Milan won the Champions League, it dates back to the distant 1965. I was not born at that time."

It seems that this Italian giant team is extremely eager to win the highest honor trophy of European clubs again.

After visiting the home court, Nagi's next stop will be Inter Milan's training ground, which is located in the small town of Appiano Gentile in the province of Como. Lo Moratti financed the construction, called Pinettina.

When Nagi arrived here, Javier Zanetti was already waiting at the door, and he warmly greeted Nagi to visit. The place looks simple, but the basic training facilities are all available, including the training ground, gymnasium and swimming pool. Well taken care of.

What really surprised Nagi was the player's dormitory, which was a small main building. The room space was very small, slightly smaller than the room Nagi rented in Genk, and the windows were also small. The light was seriously insufficient.

Compared with the reputation of Inter Milan, such an environment is obviously incompatible. Seeing Nagi's surprised gaze, Zanetti explained: "This building was built in 1965. At that time, the function and structure were not planned, so it looked a little crude."

"When we play at home, we will rest here instead of a hotel. To be honest, the environment is more difficult."

"We also wanted to suggest that the club renovate the dormitory building, but we really don't have the face to make such a request, so whenever we live here, everything here seems to remind us to create good results."

"Compared to Juventus and AC Milan, our results are far worse."

After saying goodbye to everyone in Inter Milan, they sent a car to send Nagi and Balmond back to the hotel. Nagi will stay in Italy for two more days to enjoy the scenery of Milan.

Of course, he also needs to decide whether to join as soon as possible.

In the hotel, Balmond analyzed to Nagi: "Inter Milan is full of sincerity. Even the chairman of the club went to Belgium to invite you in person. I believe that after you join, as long as you perform well, all resources will be used on you."

"Compared with Deportivo, Inter Milan has another advantage in that its popularity and team operation are better. Under the same conditions, Inter Milan can win more honors."

Balmond added: "For example, the European Ballon d'Or and the World Player of the Year are definitely easier to get at Inter Milan than at Deportivo."

"However, Inter Milan's high degree of attention means that there is more pressure on results. You need to show a more dominant performance in order to convince the picky Milan fans.

The time has entered July, and the major clubs in Europe are intensively adjusting their personnel. The first to detonate the football world is Zidane of Juventus. King", and refreshed the transfer fee record created by Figo last year.

Real Madrid, who have successively paid a lot of money in the transfer market, has become the focus of everyone's attention, and many media shouted "Galaxy Battleship" and daunted them.

Serie A is worthy of the name of "Little World Cup". In addition to Zidane's departure from Juventus and setting a transfer record, goalkeeper Buffon also transferred from Parma to Juventus for 52.88 million euros. Dietta moved from Valencia to Lazio for 48 million euros.

Not to mention Sebastian Veron from Lazio to Manchester United for 42.6 million euros, Rui Costa from Fiorentina to AC Milan for 42 million euros, Lilian Thuram from Parma to Milan for 41 million euros. Juventus, Pavel Nedved joined Juventus from Lazio for 38.7 million euros.

In detail, the top 8 players in the annual transfer fee are all related to Serie A clubs. Juventus has introduced three of them, and AC Milan has also introduced two. This makes "Turin Sports" feel: "The new season Juventus and AC Milan are still very strong."

"Although Lazio and Parma have lost many main players, they are still actively seeking new aid. It is still unclear who will win. But what about Inter Milan? It was a disgrace last season and only ranked fifth. Shouldn't it be in the summer transfer market? Would you like to spend more on it?"

Inter Milan quickly gave the answer. They first announced the introduction of defender Marco Materazzi from Perugia to replace Blanco who moved to Manchester United, and then introduced Giorgatos, Adri Yano et al.

But the introduction of these players obviously cannot be compared with the actions of Juventus and AC Milan, so they announced the highlight, the introduction of the talented boy Nagi Mina from Genk, Belgium at a price of 20 million euros!

This news was like a depth bomb, which instantly detonated European football. The media in Belgium, Italy and Spain were particularly confused, because according to the news they got, Nagi should be going to La Coruna in La Liga, not the international football team. milan.

Soon, Deportivo's technical director Raoul Kolpin broke the news in an interview with "Daily Sport": "We almost reached an agreement with Genk, but Inter Milan took the lead. Unfortunately, Their offer was higher and we couldn't match it."

As soon as this news came out, it caused another round of controversy. The "Daily Sports Daily" analyzed in the back of the article: "Mina obviously made a wrong decision, or this decision was made by Genk Club? He is not yet 18 years old. It is not a wise choice to log into Serie A and follow in the footsteps of the alien Ronaldo."

"Even Ronaldo had experienced a year in Barcelona before entering Serie A. Mina's best choice should be Super Depor, not the Nerazzurri."

The Italian media reported on this matter at length, and even overshadowed Zidane. Gazzetta dello Sport interviewed AC Milan coach Fatih Trim: "Are you asking me about this deal? There is nothing to say and Inter will pay for their stupidity."

"NoNoNo, I have no prejudice against Mina." Trim added: "I just think he is unlikely to adapt to the level of Serie A. You know, he is not yet eighteen."

"Oh, was he already eighteen years old when he played for Inter Milan?" Trim only knew about it when the reporter reminded him, "It doesn't matter, I mean, his level, his physical fitness, and his confrontation ability are not up to the level of Serie A."

"You ask me why I know this. Does it need to be said? The team he debuted in Ligue 1 ranks 13th in UEFA points, while Serie A ranks second in UEFA points."

"Torino Sport" also interviewed Juventus technical director Khalil Brenda about this transfer, "Inter Milan must have been fooled, and lost 20 million euros in vain."

"I bet they will get rid of Mina in less than one season. As for whether to loan to Ligue 1 or the Portuguese Super League, it depends on Mins's specific performance."

"Although we bid farewell to Zidane, the joining of Buffon, Thuram and Nedved will make us more competitive than last season. This season we will achieve good results in the league and the Champions League. ."

"As for Inter Milan, I can only regret to say that if the alien Ronaldo still cannot come back, they may not even be able to play in the Europa League next season."

Even many Premier League teams that were optimistic about Nagi have given unfavorable forecasts. Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger said: "Mina's decision is very hasty, which will affect his future career."

Manchester United coach Ferguson said: "It's a pity that I can't train Mina personally. I hope he will go well in the future and not be ruined by Serie A. I am still looking for the next talented player with great hope. I believe he is waiting not far away."

Although the Belgian media supported Nagi, they were also very disturbed. The entire Genk team refused to comment on this matter to avoid more rumors. In fact, the head coach Aimee Antonis was a little angry , Because Nagi chose to transfer to the team, he did not communicate with him.

He really regarded Nagi as his disciple. It wasn't until Nagi had dinner alone with him before he went home, and after he confessed all his thoughts and plans, Antonis dispelled his grudges and wished Nagi to realize it from the bottom of his heart. own ideals and aspirations.

Not only the media is not optimistic about this transfer, even the fans of Inter Milan are also not optimistic. Some radical fans even held a parade in front of the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium. Come more famous superstars.

Some fans are calling for Ronaldo to recover from injury as soon as possible. Only he can save the team. However, according to the club doctor's examination, Ronaldo will miss at least the first 10 games of next season.

Sitting on the flight to Japan, Nagi was reading an Italian media report that smeared him with relish, and Francisco Balmond next to him asked helplessly: "Mina, do you think we chose the wrong one? Should not have gone to Inter Milan."

Nagi would be a little tangled and confused before making a choice, but after he actually made a choice, he would no longer doubt himself. He said confidently: "Don't worry about Bamond, if I perform well in the new season, aren't these reports just for Did I advertise it?"

"It's also interesting to occasionally read articles that slander me. These editors are really talented. You see, some people say that I am as thin as a sheep and have fallen into the Serie A where wolves are raging."

"If there are really defensive players who believe it, then wouldn't I have taken the lead?"
