Chapter 162: The Real Madrid Legend's Situation (The first one, ask for a monthly pass!)

Everyone is saying, "Raul, for the future and revival of Real Madrid, you should sacrifice yourself and make you better!" "Raul, when you are old, you should also consider making room for young people..." "Raul , As long as you are willing to retire, you can choose the position of the top of the club except for the chairman!" "Raul, please recognize the reality and accept the fate of being a substitute..." "Raul, this Spain has taken it without you. The European Cup and the World Cup. So, without you, Real Madrid might have won the Champions League ten times?"

But no one has ever considered Raul's own feelings.

No matter what the purpose is, Raul has very deep feelings for the team he has played for more than ten years. He feels that as the captain, he should give every effort to consider everything about the team.

Ball tyrant? I am the leader in the locker room. Who will do those things I don’t do?

Substitute? I was going to play on the bench last season, did I say anything to the outside world? I didn't quarrel with the club, did I?

Ronaldo and Kaka? No problem, I am friends with them, they are easy to get along with, and so am I!

I really just want to stay in Real Madrid...

Not long after Mourinho arrived, Raul announced in the media his unconditional support for the new head coach, and at the same time said, "I am ready to play on the bench. Bench? For me, that is not a problem at all!"

Cristiano Ronaldo's fans are relieved. Kaka fans breathed a sigh of relief, even Higuain and Benzema fans were relieved.

Only Raul’s fans burst into tears-Raul, Raul, you are the living legend of Real Madrid, you are the pride flag flying over the Bernabeu forever, but now you say such a self-contained substitute, which is for pride You, like a prince, need a great determination! Although they all say that this is the normal metabolism of a team, it is an inevitable law. But... why do we people feel so sad?

They felt sad that Raul had taken such a low posture, he could still stay in Real Madrid anyway?

Mourinho did not say: "I and Raul? We can get along very well, there is no problem. I respect him very much, he is the legend of Real Madrid. Besides, the problem of coexistence with other players... ah , Let's talk about it then..."

Raul fans outside are still fantasizing that Raul and Mourinho will stage a good show of reconciliation. After all, he is the champion of Real Madrid. If the outsider Mourinho wants to control the locker room and integrate the team as soon as possible Without Raul’s cooperation, it would be difficult to move. If Mourinho is a smart man, he should cooperate with Raul...

But they have forgotten that there is another solution to this matter. That is... just kick Raul away.

So in fact, many people within Real Madrid already know that Raul's life in this team can only be counted down.

Those who are well-informed naturally started contact with Raul a long time ago-of course, it was actually contact with Raul's agent.

Among them, the current dominant team is Schalke 04 from the Bundesliga. Due to the relationship of the German player Metzelder in Real Madrid, this team temporarily holds a leading position in Raul's mind.

Metzelder boasted that both the Bundesliga and Schalke 04 are very good, and even said that if Raul is interested, he is willing to match Raul, or even act as an interpreter!

Just when Raul was about to fall in love with Schalke 04, a phone call came from Italy.

Raul, who answered the call, was a little surprised, because the person who called was his former teammate Antonio Cassano in Real Madrid.

※※※

Cassano has been recuperating at home all this time, but in fact he can't be idle at all. So a few days after the start of the team training, he slipped to the Fort Voltuno training base and suddenly appeared in front of his teammates, which made them both surprised and happy.

Chen Yingxiong met him on the way from the locker room to the training ground, and talked with him for more than ten minutes. After the heart disease, the relationship between the two people is better. It can be said to be iron buddies.

After saying hello to everyone, of course I have to visit the coaches.

When Mazzari saw Cassano, Mazzari, who was worrying about Chen's replacement, suddenly lit up and asked him: "Antonio, how is your relationship with Raul?"

Cassano was asked fiercely, but didn't respond for a while: "Raul? Who?"

"Who do you say?"

"Ah? Ah! He!" Cassano smiled, "It's okay. When I first went to Real Madrid, he took good care of me. As the captain, that's really nothing to say, a good person. You know, although I My career in Real Madrid is relatively...what, but I still met a lot of friends. Real Madrid’s players are all good."

Mazzari then smiled and asked him: "Would you like to do me a favor, Antonio?"

Cassano shuddered suddenly when he heard Mazzari's sweet voice. Mazzari in front of me is like a strange scorpion who is going to trick the little girl into going home with her...

※※※

"Antonio?" Raul was surprised because they hadn't contacted them for a long time. Later, because of Cassano’s heart attack, Real Madrid wore a t-shirt cheering on Cassano before the game. At the same time, the club officials also sent greetings. Cassano returned the gift and made a call to his name. The Real Madrid captain is here.

This is their only contact after Cassano left Real Madrid.

"How is your heart?" Raul was very concerned about Cassano's heart disease. He also admits that Cassano is a rare genius. He was tired of his character in this life. It was hard to see that he had a heart attack in Naples. During this period of time, Raul was hurt by his own future. He was a little sentimental. For Cassano, he felt a little bit of "the same person who fell into the world". Deep down in his heart, he was unconscious. Get closer.

"I've recovered pretty well, and I will be able to train physically in a few days." Cassano told the truth.

"What a good thing, congratulations!"

"Ha, thank you, Raul."

Even if Cassano had another heart attack, he was cured now, and he was only twenty-eight years old. There is also time to wait and recover. But what about yourself?

Raul thought of himself from Cassano in this way, and it can be seen that he was really melancholy and sentimental during this period of time...

He couldn't help sighing at the thought of his own situation.

The tone was neither light nor heavy, and it happened to be heard by Cassano.

Cassano was ordered by Mazzari to be a lobbyist. How could he not know that this is an entry point?

He asked, "Why do you sigh, Raul? What's upsetting?"

Raul smiled bitterly: "What else can you worry about? The outside media have all told you about it, right?"

Cassano pretended to be surprised: "Huh? No? Are you really leaving Real Madrid?"

"Of course I don't want to, but..." He sighed again. During this time, his sighs increased significantly.

"But you are the banner and legend of Real Madrid, and the captain forever. They are absolutely impossible to let you leave..."

"I hope the reality is like you said, Antonio. But the reality is that I am old." Raul said this sentence extremely lonely.

The helplessness and unwillingness in his tone made it clear to Cassano on the phone. It suddenly occurred to him that he had just learned that it was not a stroke or a virus, but a heart attack. It seemed to be exactly the same as Raul at this moment. Not reconciled, but helpless in the face of the cold reality.

This is fate, what can you do?

This empathy suddenly made Cassano become eager and enthusiastic. He had promised Mazari before, only to complete a task, he didn't really care if Raul could come. Whether you can come or not, what does it have to do with me as a player. Anyway, I'm just responsible for bridging the two of them...

But now, he suddenly felt that Raul should come to Naples, only coming to Naples is the best result. Because Naples has re-found the second spring of his career, why can't Raul find his own dignity in Naples?

what? Chen Yingxiong's substitute? Damn, our team is going to play in the Champions League and the league. We are fighting in two lines. How can one Chen hero be enough? Raul has come, but is he afraid that he has no position and no match to play? Of course, the absolute main force must not be able to do it, after all, the age is displayed there...

Mazzari's words made him blurt out: "Come to our Naples, Captain!"

He has used the title of "captain"... This is enough to show his respect and sincerity to Raul.

Raul was stunned.

Naples?

※※※

Raul has never considered the whereabouts of Naples, he has not even included the other party in his list of candidates.

At this moment, there are several roads in front of him. Going to Schalke 04 is the best choice among them, because Schalke 04 is considered to be a strong Bundesliga at any rate and is eligible for the Champions League. This is what he values ​​most. A little bit. He is the best scorer in the history of the Champions League. He has every opportunity to continue to refresh his goals in the Champions League, so if he really leaves Real Madrid, he must go to a team that can play in the Champions League. Schalke 04 is.

In addition to going to Schalke 04, it is to go to the West Asian League to pan for gold. Looking for him will definitely not consider it. It is too bad. Or learn from Beckham and go to the Major League Soccer for retirement. Beckham called him several times and tried to invite him to the Los Angeles Galaxy. But... after all, there is still a football desert, and it is completely incomparable with Europe. He would not go if he had to be a last resort.

In addition to continuing his football career, another option is to retire directly at Real Madrid and announce his retirement now. In this way, Real Madrid will give him a decent farewell match, inviting celebrities in world football, and guaranteeing that he will be successful. After retiring, he can go directly to the top of the Real Madrid board of directors, or if he wants to be a coach, he can also be a coach directly, and he always wants to do whatever he wants.

But Raul doesn't want to choose this path, he still wants to play. He was only thirty-three years old, and he felt that he was not old at all.

Because Schalke 04 can participate in the Champions League and Metzelder's instigation, he thinks this choice is good.

But now Naples crosses in...

Yes, he suddenly remembered that Naples is also eligible to participate in the Champions League, but it has to start from the Champions League qualification...

"Qualification?" Cassano sneered on the other end of the phone. "That's not a problem at all. Our strength in Naples is not difficult to compete in the UEFA Champions League qualification. Anyway, I think, Naples has ideas from the boss to the coach People, teammates, everyone gets along very happily, and the dressing room environment is relatively simple. I think you really come to Naples and you will never regret it! You think about it, if you are interested, I will give you the phone number of our head coach , He will talk to you about specific things, that... it doesn't matter if the language is not available, I can still translate for you!"

Raul laughed.

Metzelder told himself the same way.

Why do everyone like to be part-time translators?

But what about Naples...how?
