Super Marshal

With a smile on his face, Gao Han gently threw the photos in his hand onto the desks in front of him.

He had just returned home from an away game in Marseille, France, when his agent Mendes came to him and brought some photos.

Judging from the quality of the photo, it should be a sneak shot from a long distance. It is a bit blurry, but the person in the photo can still be seen clearly. The person in the middle, who is familiar to everyone who is familiar with Chelsea, is Abramovich.

Gao Han on the left is also very familiar, Israeli agent Pini Zahavi.

On the contrary, the one on the right looked familiar to him, but he didn't recognize it for a while.

"Jose Vega." Jorge Mendes reveals the answer.

"This was secretly photographed by a reporter from the Sun newspaper after a long period of follow-up. They secretly met in France. You know, Abramovich has a house there. It is said that they chatted secretly for an afternoon and shared For dinner."

Gao Han still had a relaxed smile on his face, "So what?"

"He is very familiar with me, so he sent me the news in private, but tomorrow morning, the Sun will definitely be on the front page, and the public opinion will definitely be in an uproar." Mendes seemed a little excited, even angry.

The entire Iberian Peninsula, no, even the entire European football world, everyone knows that he and Jose Vega are deadly enemies.

When Jose Vega was in full swing, he was almost overwhelmed, and even had to run to help Brazilian godfather Figel. If he hadn't been lucky enough to meet Gao Han, he still wouldn't be able to stand up now.

The grievances between the two Portuguese agents were made public for the first time. It was two years ago that the two took the same plane by chance. As a result, they fought in the airport waiting hall after a disagreement, which made the whole European media They were all heavily hyped up.

Whether at Atletico Madrid or at Chelsea, Mendes thought he was doing well, well-behaved, and he didn't dare to overstep in the slightest. Even in the process of transferring many players, he was conscientious and did not dare to slack off.

Firstly, he believes in a principle that a win-win business can last forever; secondly, he also knows that Gao Han doesn't like him doing this, so he always abides by his professional duty.

But now...

"A few days ago, Mourinho just taunted you in the media, and let the whole European media see you as a joke. As soon as he turned around, Abramovich ran to meet Jose Vega?" Mendes still Still very aggrieved.

The relationship between Jose Vega and Mourinho has been established as early as the Barcelona period. At the beginning, Jose Vega even intended to operate Mourinho to Atletico Madrid, but then the Sheets chose to trust Gao Han and let him He turned positive.

Although Mendes and Mourinho had a lot of cooperation in Porto in the past period of time, the newly promoted Portuguese coach was very rude to Mendes. Mourinho didn't even want to talk to him, which made Mendes feel offended.

At least there should be some respect, right?

Gao Han understood the mood of his partner, smiled, and patted his hand comfortingly.

For Mourinho, Gao Han has a bad impression, but he will not pay attention to him.

To put it bluntly, with his status in European football today and his influence in the European media, wouldn't it be a step up for the opponent to talk to Mourinho?

I guess they can't wait.

"Jorge, you know, although he is the owner of Chelsea, he is not anyone's slave, and we have no reason to stop him from making friends with anyone, let alone eating with people, right? "

After Mendes heard this, although his face was still angry, he couldn't refute it.

"Besides, they talk behind closed doors. Who knows what they say? Maybe it's just a normal meeting? If we make too much of a fuss, won't it turn out that we are immeasurable and suspicious?"

Mendes was still speechless, but he understood somewhat that he was indeed in a hurry.

Perhaps it was the past period of time, when he stayed in the shadow of Jose Vega for too long, which left some psychological shadows, which made him very worried about the resurgence of his opponent, and worried that everything he had built with great difficulty would be destroyed.

But now, after hearing Gao Han's words, he felt a little relieved.

"Jorge, we Chinese have a saying, a dog that bites doesn't bark, it just bites when it comes up, and we respond to all changes without change, no matter what the situation is, no matter who the opponent is, the initiative is always in our hands .”

Gao Han's words immediately caught Mendes' eyes.

is not that right?

In the original contract between Gao Han and Chelsea, there was a clause, that is, Gao Han has the right to terminate the contract without paying any compensation, which was added at the time of Gao Han's compulsory request.

At that time, Jorge Mendes thought it was too much, but now that he thinks about it, with this clause, the initiative cannot be lost.

The big deal is that if you don't play, with Gao Han's status in European football today, are you afraid that you won't be able to find a team?

There is a saying that goes well, you need to be hard to strike an iron.

As long as you are strong enough, are you afraid that you won't be able to strike a good iron?

…………

Early the next morning, the Sun newspaper, as Mendes said before, published a photo of Abramovich meeting with Jose Vega on the front page, and guessed the content of the negotiations between the two parties.

But this has nothing to do with Gao Han's coaching position. Even those reporters who are completely wrong with Gao Han, it is impossible to believe that Chelsea will change the idea of ​​coaching, and Gao Han's position is absolutely rock-solid.

They speculate that Abramovich is personally involved and is preparing to operate a superstar, most likely Real Madrid's right winger Figo, whose status in Real Madrid is not solid.

But some media pointed out that what Abramovich really wants is Benfica's winger Simao.

The Portuguese joined Barcelona in the summer of 1999 with a worth of 15 million euros, known as Figo II, but his performance in Barcelona was not satisfactory, and he returned to the Portuguese Super League three years later. , joined Benfica.

But in these three seasons in Benfica, Simao has shown amazing strength. As a winger, the number of goals scored in each season has reached double digits. Last season, he even reached 18 goals, which is very efficient. Amazing, regarded as the most powerful winger in Europe.

Chelsea's winger Arjen Robben has had ups and downs, Messi is too young, and the introduction of a high-level winger has always been called by the fans. Therefore, many people speculate that Abramovich is going to take the shot himself. Figo II.

And Simao's agent is Jose Vega.

But no matter what, with the consistent nature of the British media, it is certainly impossible to just be satisfied with this.

Therefore, they quickly made a comment, thinking that Gao Han's transfer rights in Chelsea had been taken back by the management, and whether it was operating Figo or Simao, it was obviously not Gao Han's instruction.

Everyone can see that Gao Han is focusing on cultivating Robben and Messi, how could he give up the two young players?

What is derived from this is that many media have speculated that there are differences in transfer and signings between Gao Han and Abramovich. The former focuses on promoting and cultivating young players introduced by himself, while the latter is more inclined to introduce Famous star.

This is not surprising.

For a long time, Abramovich hoped to introduce superstars. Players such as Shevchenko, Henry, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Crespo have been linked with Chelsea successively, and Gao Han has always been very concerned about this kind of transfer operation. resist.

At the beginning of the season, some media even broke the news that Abramovich had contacted Shevchenko in private.

But later, as Eto'o and Ibrahimovic performed better and better, this voice gradually weakened.

But now that Abramovich reappeared in the sight of the media, he was still in contact with Jose Vega. This made many media reporters have associations, and even drifted further and further away.

In this world, no matter where it is, conspiracy theories are always the most marketable.

There was still an hour before the training time, and the players came to the Harrington training ground one after another.

In the locker room, the players took off their stylish and gorgeous shoes and put on simple training equipment, preparing for the upcoming training session.

As usual, everyone in the locker room was talking, but today the topic was a bit serious.

Because it's about the cold.

"You say, is the photo published by The Sun real?"

"Needless to say? It's absolutely true."

"That's right, anyone who is familiar with the British media knows that the Sun newspaper is pervasive. If they want to know, they can even find out how many women you played with in a nightclub last night."

"Haha, is that an exaggeration?"

"That's an exaggeration!"

"Before the transfer last summer, Manchester United firmly insisted that Beckham was not for sale. It was the Sun newspaper who followed him for a long time. As a result, Manchester United's Peter Kenyon was photographed privately meeting with Real Madrid people, which revealed that Beckham There was an uproar about Ham's transfer to Real Madrid."

"I know this news, the follow-up to the flying boot incident."

"Therefore, there is no need to question The Sun's ability to dig out news. As for this matter..."

"The management is really not kind, contact Jose Vega at this time."

"Isn't it? Everyone knows that Jose Vega is Mourinho's agent. Mourinho just satirized our boss in Manchester not long ago. Isn't this meeting the enemy?"

"Speaking of this, I'm full of anger, that is, we can't win the Champions League this season. If we really want to meet Porto, I will torture them to death and express my anger for our boss!"

"Me too, look at Mourinho, isn't it just winning Manchester United? What's so great, we still win all day long, and we didn't play as hard as they did. What's so great?"

"If you ask me, Mourinho is jealous of our boss."

"That's right, the boss was an intern back then, but what about now? The most popular coach in Europe must be envious and jealous."

"Ha, speaking of which, what do people call Mourinho?"

"Alpine II!"

"Haha, yes, yes."

"Hey, tell me, should we express our opinion on this matter and support the boss?"

"Why don't we let the reporters we know know?"

Captain John Terry had been standing in front of his locker all the time, but he and Lampard looked at each other when he saw his teammates talking more and more, and then he coughed heavily.

"Okay, okay, everyone, don't worry, this matter hasn't been clarified yet, so don't rush to express your opinion."

As soon as the captain spoke, everyone in the locker room looked over in unison.

"Yeah, the team's decisive battle is imminent, and it's time for results. Don't let yourself get distracted, so I think this matter should be handled by the management and the boss." Lampard also Helped say.

In this reorganized Chelsea team, they are all veteran players and local international players, so their words still have a bit of weight, and compared to Ibrahimovic, Eto'o and Ronaldinho Compared with the players who Gao Han insisted on introducing, they pay more attention to Chelsea as a whole and protect the interests of the team more.

Both captains spoke, and Joe Cole, Parker and others also gave their opinions.

Anyway, other people are just talking, and this matter is over.
