My name is Colani

Chapter 175: Recruiting 1

Yes, Mascherano is famous, but there are also European teams that pay attention to him. In fact, there is more noise than rain. The basic reason is what Seli said, there are always only a few who can take the risk.

Look at the Italian giants, they rarely introduce players directly from South America. Most of this work is done by small teams, and then they buy the finished products directly from small teams. Are they stupid and willing to spend more money? ! Of course not!

They are giants and have no patience to train young players.

And what talents are small teams generally willing to introduce? ! Offensive talents, defensive players are not valuable, defensive midfielders are not valuable, Crespo and Batistuta are both high-priced, but it is difficult for Argentine defensive players to get an Argentine defensive player with the same value as them.

Small teams can sell at a high price, defensive players are useless, and from a tactical point of view, Europe emphasizes tactics more, and defensive players must have high discipline. South American players have always been inferior to European players in this regard. Why use South American players when European players are not used?

This is the fundamental reason why no European team has ever shown interest in Javier Mascherano!

Oscar Mascherano doesn't know this, he knows it very well, in fact, he also thinks this is a good opportunity to come here to take a look.

"If he was in Trapani, the situation would be very different!" Seli said as if sighing.

"Mr. Mascherano, I think Javier is still young, it's good to come to Europe as soon as possible, he is very good, I believe he can gain a foothold in Trapani!" Hernandez also persuaded.

Maybe he has thought it through, Oscar Mascherano finally nodded and said: "You are right, Javier has been determined to become a great player since he was a child, but we all know that great players are in Europe! Coming to Europe is his only way, I think I have nothing to hesitate, I am willing to let him come to play! But you know Javier is a player of River Plate, he..."

Oscar Mascherano paused and said nothing, the meaning is very clear, the transfer fee will depend on you to negotiate.

"Don't worry about this, as long as you are willing, I will let Seli negotiate with River Plate for the transfer fee. We will not make things difficult for you!" Hugo said immediately when he saw Oscar Mascherano agreed.

After a few people talked and laughed for a while, Hugo said to him again: "Mr. Mascherano, I support Javier and say that you are also a coach! So are you interested in joining our youth training camp?! In this way, you can also take care of your son here and relieve him of his worries!"

"Alas, what kind of coach am I! I retired at the beginning, but I just taught local children!" This is what he said in the first sentence, but in the second sentence, Mr. Mascherano said, "My son was a striker at the beginning. I thought he was not suitable to be a striker, so I asked him to play in the midfield. As a result, he was unstoppable. Now he is getting better and better!"

Who said that only Chinese people are humble? Look at Mr. Mascherano. He is obviously a little complacent. He said that he still has a way.

"Of course I hope to be able to accompany my son nearby. If you don't mind, I am willing to come here to be a coach!" Oscar Mascherano said this again at the end. His level is nothing. He is willing to take care of his son just for the fact that he can take care of him.

He began to talk about Mascherano's growth process, from childhood to adulthood, no matter how big or small. Hugo heard that they were not far from Rosario, and thought of Messi, so he said: "We have another player in Argentina, Leo Messi. He is our player and has signed a contract with us, but now he plays for Newell's Old Boys! Maybe next year when he goes to Serie B, I will let him come. He is a genius. He and you can be considered as fellow countrymen. By then, I think your son may become good friends with Messi!"

Mr. Mascherano looked cute, and it seemed that he had never heard of Messi's big name, which shows that Messi is not very famous in the local area.

Hugo smiled and said nothing. Just like what Seli, a transfer director who was a senior scout, said, no one can see the future clearly. When these stars become famous, people will say how extraordinary he was at the beginning.

This is a bit like the emperors in ancient China. After ascending the throne, they always have to make up some stories, such as the house full of rosy clouds when they were born, etc. This superstar is similar. Things that were obviously ordinary at the beginning will become extraordinary.

There are many people who are said to be very good by coaches and scouts, and have the potential to be stars, but in the end only a few become the most dazzling stars in football. When they become famous, someone will jump out and say that they saw that he was extraordinary at the beginning.

Mr. Mascherano is a meticulous person. He stayed here for three days before leaving. He wanted to make sure that this place is good. This is Sicily, where the underworld gathers, but he found that the living environment here is much better than Argentina. Argentina's economy is depressed and the security environment is also deteriorating. However, Trapani is not Palermo. The city hall here is cracking down, and the security environment is also quite good. It is a good seaside town.

Mr. Mascherano returned three days later, along with Celtic and Hernandez. Hugo expected Celtic to be able to negotiate the transfer this time, and also hoped to establish good relations with River Plate. River Plate is one of the two largest football clubs in Argentina, and they have a tradition of cultivating outstanding stars. If a good relationship can be established, maybe he can dig up treasures from them in the future.

The team's official training has started for several days, and Hugo finally got time to go to the team's training ground to take a good look.

"Gigi, what's going on?! How can the team train with only more than ten people now?!" Assistant coach Barrias asked Hugo. It's not that 6 people went out and none came in, there were only more than ten people.

Hugo is very busy these days, and Barrias is too embarrassed to disturb Hugo. Now that Hugo has come to the training ground seriously, as a veteran, he naturally wants to ask.

"Don't be nervous, someone will arrive soon! Giorgio is already going through the relevant procedures. In just these two days, several new players will come. This was all done by Selly before. It didn't cost much, and they are all young people. People!" Hugo's attitude towards people like Barrias was naturally different.

"I'm worried about Walter! He is very dissatisfied!" Barias whispered.

Hugo looked up at Mazzarri, who was standing far away with a tense face, and said with a smile: "You have to persuade him, he is the head coach, he needs to think about the problem from the team's standpoint, and don't always think about it. Self-righteous! I think he wants to make some money here and then run away!"

Hugo's words were a bit harsh and heart-wrenching. He meant that Mazzarri was just using Trapani as a springboard.

"Gigi, it's wrong to say Walter! After all, he is also good for the team. As a newly promoted team, we do not consider upgrading the team's strength, but sell core and capable players. It is inevitable that he will be resentful!" Barrias! persuaded.

"Michele, please give him some advice! I think he has lost his temper after getting good results last season! These young people are not useful. Pepe is gone, Diamanti, and Luriga. If it doesn't work, Grosso can also play as a fullback. These guys are very good. The reason why the statistics were relatively poor last season is because of Pepe! It's not like we have players joining the second league! But this is the case, the C-1 league is basically the same! We will give him enough candidates!" Hugo explained that in his opinion, he certainly expected that every player would not be reused by Mazzarri, and then everyone would be. Improve it, and then you can sell it at a good price in the future!

It's not that Michele Barrias doesn't know Hugo's thoughts, he just wants Mazzarri to take care of himself, and Mazzarri wants to win the championship and lead the team to promotion.

Hearing Hugo say that the club would bring enough players to the team, Barrias felt a little more at ease.

This is also true. Within two days, Trapani welcomed new aid. The first new aid was Simone Padoin, a native of Gemona on the northern border of Italy. He was only seventeen years old now and didn’t know it. What Selly found from there was a free contract player anyway. He was actually a youth training player, but the first team was short of players. Giorgio completed the formalities and Padoin was filled into the first team.

The second player is finally in his prime. Central defender Cesare Natali was a player in 1979. He made his debut in Atlanta’s youth training camp, but was always on loan in Atlanta and did not return to Atlanta. Opportunity, Sergio spent 50,000 euros to get the 21-year-old central defender from Atalanta. He didn't get a chance in Atalanta, but he was happy to come to Trapani. After all, at his age, he already meant that he would leave on his own. This is the path of a professional player. He should go where there are competitions. Trapani's rapid rise in the past two years also attracted him.

The third player was simply recommended from among those Argentine players. He was recommended by Allegri, the head coach of the youth team and director of the youth training center.

Fernando Belluschi is an Italian player who was born in 1983. He previously played for San Lorenzo in Argentina. The price negotiated by Hernandez was US$40,000, which was very cheap.

The fourth player is Fabrizio Miccoli. He was born in Lecce, but he was very famous at the time. Milan paid 5,000 euros to get him when he was only 13 years old. He also failed to kick out during training. Later, he returned to Lecce, and Lecce sold him to Casalano. It was in Casalano that he gradually made a name for himself, and later went to Terna in Serie B. , played 23 times in Serie B last season and scored 7 goals. Selly took a fancy to him because Miccoli has great skills and is very fast, which is a huge advantage to Trapani's striker. Replenish.

It’s good that Hugo and the others are all my players. Don’t come if you don’t have an asking price of millions. When it’s their turn to buy someone, they are extremely stingy. It’s not like they haven’t tried some goals before. They went up to 50 Ten thousand, just give up and not sell it. This is why Trapani is recruiting young people and is reluctant to spend money.
