From coaching Real Madrid

163 Profound, one can't be too Versailles!

The facilities at St. Paul's Stadium are still too old.

Whether you're looking at it from the inside or standing outside, it's the same.

The stadium was renovated from a comprehensive stadium. There is a track and field track between the stadium and the stands, and there is a semi-circular arc area behind the goals at both ends. This makes the distance between the stadium and the stands too far, seriously affecting the atmosphere of the home field.

Thanks to the double-layer stands, which can accommodate more than 50,000 people, Naples fans are famous for their passion, but the atmosphere is also greatly reduced, which can only be considered good. If it can be turned into a professional football stadium, I believe the home atmosphere will be even more terrifying.

There are basically no facilities at the stadium.

This can be seen very clearly from outside the stadium.

The two-story grandstand is a reinforced concrete structure, bowl-shaped, with no other coverings, and is directly exposed. In order to support the ceiling, there is a layer of steel structure above the grandstand, which makes the stadium look really rough from the outside.

To put it nicely, this is called exposed and flamboyant wildness.

Gao Shen has long heard that the home facilities of Serie A teams are very backward because they don’t even own their home court.

Now that I have personally experienced it, it is really shabby to have everything you want.

In terms of this revenue, Serie A lags far behind teams in other leagues.

In this regard, De Laurentiis also has no idea.

The stadium is a municipal facility and cannot be moved or modified. We clearly know that many fans have consumer demands in this regard, but there is no way. There is nothing. It even has to be provided from time to time to host various activities and sports meetings for the city government. .

In Italy, the government has expressly stipulated that teams are not allowed to build private football stadiums, which is equivalent to killing a large amount of income.

With more than 50,000 people and one of the hottest football markets in Italy, there is no way to generate revenue. This is also a big regret.

"Actually, it's not completely impossible." Gao Shen smiled and said.

De Laurentiis and Marino were both a little surprised.

"Is there a way?" De Lao couldn't believe it.

"It's actually very simple. Private construction is not allowed, isn't it?"

After seeing De Lao and Marino nodding, Gao Shen continued: "Then rent it, long-term rent, rent it for ninety-nine years, wouldn't it be the same as your own? No matter how you modify it, it will be no problem, this is not Is it solved?"

De Laurentiis shook his head, "This is unrealistic. It is impossible for the government to rent the Sao Paulo Stadium to you for such a long time. Moreover, they often use this stadium to host various activities and sports games, so they will not agree to the renovation."

"Then change it to a new one, preferably one that is dilapidated and has been abandoned for a long time. The rent will be very cheap and it can be renovated in a legitimate way. The reason is very good, because without renovation, we will not be able to use it."

DeLaurentis's eyes suddenly lit up.

This old guy is also a shrewd person who can draw inferences from one example and draw inferences from others. As soon as Gao Shen pointed it out, he immediately figured out the key trick.

"It's wonderful. In this way, we can really build a new stadium. However, the cost is estimated to be more than 100 million euros. But after the investment, the income of the entire match day can be greatly increased, which is absolutely worth it!"

When he thought of this, De Laurentiis' whole body was on fire.

This idea is indeed a great one, because a few years later, Juventus would do just that.

De Laurentiis patted Gao Shen heavily on the shoulder and almost wanted to pick him up and chew him.

This little guy is really a talent. He came up with such a good idea as soon as he came here.

Oh, it’s good to be young, with flexible ideas and lots of clever ideas!

But De Laurentiis soon murmured to himself: This guy is such a thief, was he plotting against me during the entire negotiation process?

After thinking for a long time, he finally felt that it didn't seem to be the case.

Only then did I feel relieved.

…………

…………

Naples' home stadium is in the Bay Area of ​​the city, but its training base is 35 kilometers northwest of the city, in a small town called Fort Volturno, with a total population of just over 20,000.

The distance is not far, but since the stadium and training base are near the highway, commuting is easy.

But what surprised Gao Shen was that the Fort Volturno Training Center was actually located in a golf club near the seaside.

Three long and narrow football fields are connected from north to south, followed by a training building and player dormitories.

Only the Naples first team trains here, and the team’s youth training camp is not yet complete, and this is not under the senior management’s control.

When Marino brought Gao Shen to the training base, Carlo, Buenaventura, Lucas, Lopis and Borrell were already in place and had already explored the entire training base.

Clear.

Rudolf Borrell only considered it for three days before he called Gao Shen and agreed to join his coaching staff.

Today, a group of them arrived in Naples at the same time. Gao Shen went straight to the Sao Paulo Stadium to sign a contract, while the five of them went directly to the Fort Volturno training base to inspect the various software and hardware facilities here.

In the low training building, they held the first Napoli coaching meeting, with technical director Marino observing.

The main content of the meeting is that everyone puts forward various opinions based on the needs of their own positions. They put forward the modifications that need to be made and the equipment that needs to be introduced. Anyway, it is necessary to get everything done before the team training.

Got it all done.

Marino is the specific person in charge of this work.

At this time, the benefits of a complete coaching staff are revealed.

As a team that has only been founded for two years, Naples' training facilities are definitely not perfect and the layout is not scientific and reasonable. In addition, the previous head coaches Ventura and Rhea are both old coaches and do not have high requirements in this regard.

We are also unfamiliar with some of the new technologies, resulting in Naples’ current various software and hardware being severely out of step with the times.

And the advanced coaching staff all come from the top wealthy clubs.

To put it bluntly, wealthy clubs have money and talent, and represent the most advanced productivity in today's world football.

For example, Buenaventura proposed a testing device, which has been used in Real Madrid for two years. It is very useful for physical testing of players, but Naples has not seen it at all. The key is that it is cheap.

Borrell proposed to use the open space next to the three training fields to transform a small venue. He wanted to allow players to play football and train in the small venue, so as to maximize the training of players' one-touch and ball-touching skills.

tacit agreement.

In fact, the investment in all modifications is not large, but the key is ease of use and practicality.

Marino comes from Udinese and is known for his youth training in Serie A, but his horizons were really opened in front of the experienced coaching staff.

Serie A has been basking in the glory of its own mini-World Cup for so long that it has begun to fall behind the times in all aspects.

AC Milan is relatively good, and the Milan laboratory is well-known, but there is news that Milan's top management is also quite complaining about the laboratory that invests a lot of money every year.

But after personally participating in the meeting between Gao Shen and the coaching staff, Marino really felt that Naples was too behind the times.

Not to mention that the entire renovation did not cost much, even if it cost over one million, he felt that he should invest in it.

Players are the primary productive force of a football club!

"Pieppaolo, these renovations and equipment introduction must be done quickly."

After the meeting, Gao Shen sent Marino out of the office with a thousand warnings.

"Don't worry, everything will be ready before the summer training camp starts." Marino promised.

De Laurentiis promised him the position of general manager, and he is now particularly motivated and working harder.

"In addition, none of us have looked for a good house yet. I heard you say before that you live in the Bay Area?" Gao Shen asked.

"Yes, the Bay Area has good security, good scenery, and many houses. If you need it, I will have someone help you find it."

"Thank you, sorry for bothering you." Gao Shen nodded in thanks.

"Originally, I planned to recruit a few people from Real Madrid, such as Callejon, Parejo, Juan Mata, etc..."

After Gao Shen finished speaking, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's all my fault. I gave them a chance to perform last season. Now many teams are eyeing them, and Real Madrid is also paying attention. I'm afraid it won't be easy to poach them."

Take Callejon, for example. This winger is very effective in immediate combat, fast, sophisticated and well-informed, and can cooperate more tacitly. But unfortunately, Real Madrid's players are too expensive. Callejon's price is only 5 million euros.

.

You want to rent it out, but that's not easy to do. If you perform well, Real Madrid will go back directly, so don't you have to find someone else?

"It's not surprising, these are all talented players, considered the best in Spain's youth training." Marino wondered if Gao Shen was in Versailles?

You know, if any of these players is released, they will be the favorites and treasures of all major teams.

That's why a team like Real Madrid doesn't take it seriously.

"We'll look outside first and buy if there's something suitable. If that doesn't work, I'll rent it to Real Madrid," Gao Shen said.

As long as Gao Shen opens his mouth, Real Madrid will generally not refuse.

Besides, this is tantamount to cultivating talents for Real Madrid in disguise, and Real Madrid is probably even happier.

Everyone at Real Madrid knows that they are good at cultivating young players.

"In addition, you should contact Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia and ask about the price of their midfielder Luka Modric and see if we can afford it." Gao Shen also felt helpless.

In fact, it is really useful to have a player like Modric in the midfield.

Not only is he capable of both offense and defense, he can pass, control, lead and shoot. The key is that he can break away and push forward, dribbling the ball in the middle. This is becoming more and more important now that defense is becoming more and more rigorous.

Just like Kaká, his dribbling from the center is a killer and an important means to break the defensive formation.

Although Gao Shen plays on the wing, if there is such a person in the middle, the overall strength will be even higher.

However, Gao Shen took a look before and found that Modric is now the Croatian international and is participating in the World Cup. Dinamo Zagreb is also a regular player in the Champions League. He probably cannot afford it and others may not be willing to come.

As for spending money, investing more than 10 million euros to let Modric play in Serie B is not cost-effective.

Therefore, Gao Shen is inclined to find out more.

He already has suitable candidates for the double midfielder position in the midfield.

This time he was going to take action personally and take down these two people no matter what.
