Super Marshal

Back in Madrid from Manchester, the Sheets were greeted warmly by the city and even the whole of Spain.

It is a great honor for Spain and Madrid to win the UEFA Champions League for two consecutive seasons.

Fanatical fans spontaneously organized a huge welcome event at the airport. At the same time, the club also arranged for an open bus, carrying the La Liga champion and Copa del Rey champion that they had won in advance, carrying all the players on and off the club from the airport. At first, all the way around the city parade southward.

The Poseidon Square, which is traditionally celebrated by Atlético de Madrid, was even more crowded by Atlético Madrid fans who had heard the news, almost paralyzing the traffic of the entire city.

After a traditional championship celebration was held at Poseidon Square, the parade slowly went south again to Atletico Madrid's home stadium Calderon, where another celebration was held.

And this time, they don't know how long it will last.

At least, they will definitely not leave before midnight.

The entire championship celebration parade, in addition to Atletico Madrid fans, also had media reporters from all over the world, and even a Spanish TV station broadcast live, which aroused great repercussions.

Coupled with the team's first Champions League win, these are bound to benefit Atletico Madrid a lot in the next few years.

Even, as long as the club seizes the opportunity and manages pragmatically, it is very likely to lay the foundation of the team's giants in one fell swoop.

But behind this prosperity, every step of Atletico Madrid is walking on eggshells.

…………

"Last night, at Old Trafford, we had a private chat with Galliani."

In the general manager's office at the Calderon Stadium, Little Hill, the Big Three, and Gao Han sat around the coffee table, looking not relaxed, and even a little stern.

"Frankly speaking, the price they offer is quite attractive, and the annual salary they offer is beyond our reach. Therefore, if there is no accident, Kaka will probably transfer to AC Milan."

Gao Han was not surprised by Xiao Xier's news.

AC Milan has attached great importance to Kaka for a long time, and even almost left the team last summer.

In Ancelotti's style of play, Seedorf, Rivaldo and Rui Costa are not suitable for the midfielder position, because they cannot provide the team with a slow to fast advancement.

But Kaka can, and his fast dribbling breakthrough in the middle of the midfield will make AC Milan's offense more threatening.

It is entirely conceivable that with Kaka, AC Milan's defensive counterattack will be more comfortable.

This deal is much more cost-effective than buying Rivaldo and Rui Costa.

Of course, the current Kaka is not cheap, without an astonishingly high price, don't expect to take him away at all.

This is why Atletico Madrid cannot refuse.

Selling Kaka and getting back a sum of money can keep the existing group of players and keep the team's competitiveness to the maximum extent.

For Atletico Madrid, this is the most pragmatic business strategy.

It is even conceivable that the next step will be to focus on cultivating players such as Cristiano Ronaldo. Once they get up, Atletico Madrid is bound to further promote their metabolism.

The whole process will take several years, but once successful, Atletico Madrid will thus establish their status as a giant.

"Gao Han, have you really decided?" Cerezo asked solemnly.

Gao Han looked at the three immediate bosses in front of him, and smiled slightly, "Well, I think it will be difficult for me to help the team if I stay in the team, so I decided to leave."

The Big Three were not surprised by Gao Han's choice, because they had a hunch when Gao Han suspended the contract renewal.

This team was built by Gao Han himself. Now that it has reached its peak, it will definitely be split up next. It is indeed a bit uncomfortable for him, but this is professional football.

"Have you thought about where to go next?" Little Hill asked with concern.

Gao Han shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet. After the game the day after tomorrow, I will bid farewell to the team, and then go back to China for a vacation, take a good rest, and make a decision later."

After a pause, Gao Han promised: "But, I will definitely not stay in La Liga."

"We didn't mean that..." Xiao Xier was afraid that Gao Han might misunderstand.

With a talent like Gao Han at such a young age, it is uncertain when Atletico Madrid will be in crisis again in the future. At that time, he can be invited to coach again. Who would dare to offend?

"I know, Michelle, but I really can't play against the team I brought in."

After hearing this, the three of them admired and breathed a sigh of relief.

They read it right, Gao Han is indeed a person with a lot of emotion.

"Then... who do you think is suitable to take over the team?" Cerezo asked again.

Little Hill and Paul Futre also looked at Gao Han in unison, waiting for his answer.

"Although the team has reached its peak, many players still have potential to be tapped, and a group of young players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Gabi, Dario Srna, David Silva, Ramos, etc. Young players need to grow, so I think the head coach must be good at developing young players."

For Gao Han's analysis, the Big Three also agreed.

This is in line with their previous judgments.

"The team's style of play in the past three years has been very clear, a fast-paced overall offense and defense based on skilled passing and control, and must be familiar with La Liga, so I think there are two most suitable candidates."

As soon as Gao Han finished speaking, Xiao Xier immediately chased after him: "Hurry up and listen."

"One is an old acquaintance, you are also very familiar, Luis Aragones, he knows my style of play very well, and he is also very familiar with La Liga and Atletico Madrid, I think he can continue Madrid very well. The competitive style of play has even been further developed.”

Xiao Hill frowned after hearing this, "But I received news that he may be more interested in the position of head coach of the Spanish national team."

Gao Han has also heard the news, and he even heard that the Spanish Football Association intends to invite him to be a technical consultant, but in fact, no one has contacted him at all.

The current head coach of the Spanish national team, Seth, is also completely inconsistent with his philosophy, so he didn't take it to heart.

"There is one more, the German coach Heynckes of Athletic Bilbao."

"It's him?" Little Hill and the three were a little surprised.

To say that Heynckes coached Athletic Bilbao, his results can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, and his style of play can't be said to be very good, but he has a very good relationship with Gao Han, which is well known in Spanish football.

Gao Han also understands that recommending Heynckes in this way is easy to be misunderstood, but he really thinks that Heynckes is very suitable for Atletico Madrid because he knows his friend very well.

"Believe me, apart from Aragones, I think Heynckes is the most suitable coach for Atletico Madrid, although he has not been able to achieve greatness in the past many years, and even I can't guarantee that he will be in the future. Whether Atletico Madrid can succeed, but he definitely has the strength to continue and improve Atletico Madrid's style of play."

The three of Xiao Xier rarely heard Gao Han say something so solemnly, and they also understood Gao Han's personality, so they no longer suspected anything else in their hearts, and they all believed that Gao Han recommended Heynckes out of professional judgment.

As for whether to invite Heynckes, they still need to discuss.

But there is one thing that they can be sure of, that is, no matter who it is, it will be difficult to reproduce the brilliant record that Gao Han has achieved during the past two years of coaching.

He will become an insurmountable and immortal monument in the history of Atlético de Madrid.

…………

Atlético de Madrid lifted the St. Blair's Cup from Manchester, which caused huge repercussions around the world.

But on the third day after returning to Spain, Atletico Madrid ushered in the last round of La Liga.

In the end, relying on a half-main and half-substitute lineup, the Sheets defeated their opponents 3-0 in an away game without any surprises.

Ended La Liga with a perfect record for two consecutive seasons, won the Champions League and Copa del Rey, and completed the unprecedented Triple Crown of La Liga. Gao Han's team shocked the whole world, and also aroused the pursuit of fans all over the world .

Especially the head coach Gao Han, relying on the confession in the Champions League final, made him the darling of the media and sponsors all over the world, and his commercial value is not inferior to the top superstars.

But after the team won the Triple Crown, Atletico Madrid soon officially announced that the team failed to renew the contract with the head coach Gao Han. The Chinese coach who led the sheet army to the peak will not continue in the new season coach the team.

At the press conference, Hill even expressed emotionally that everyone on the team will always remember Gao Han's contribution to Atletico Madrid. No matter what the future holds, Atletico Madrid will always open the door and welcome Gao Han's return.

Gao Han also announced through his agent, Jorge Mendes, that there is no problem between him and the Atletico Madrid management. to change.

This news also quickly detonated the world football world. Regarding the reason for Gao Han to leave Atletico Madrid, the media generally did not dispute it. They all believed that this was a very wise choice to retreat bravely.

But regarding Gao Han's next season's whereabouts, it is still confusing.

Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Barcelona, ​​and even Real Madrid and other teams have all been involved with Gao Han, but none of them have anything to say.

But unlike Gao Han, Atletico Madrid has shown amazing efficiency in selecting coaches.

A week after the end of the season, the management of the Sheets Corps announced that it had successfully invited the head coach of Athletic Bilbao, Heynckes, to Calderon.

Both the management and Heynckes thanked Gao Han for his recommendation at the press conference. At the same time, Heynckes also said that taking over Atletico Madrid at this time is a big challenge, but he is confident that he can do well.

"Gao Han left a great team for me, he is one of my best friends, we had a deep conversation about this, I think I can help Atletico Madrid, at the same time, I am also very happy to accept this A challenge."

At the same time, Atlético de Madrid also solemnly announced that the team will step up efforts to support the youth training of the Chinatown team located in Fuenlabrada, and once again congratulate the team on their success in upgrading for three consecutive years.

From the beginning to the end, Gao Han never showed up.

After the season ended, he bid farewell to the team and returned to China for vacation.

Until, Jorge Mendes called.
