My name is Colani

Chapter 259 The Iron Tree Blooms

Juventus and Palladino must have anticipated this situation in advance, but Juventus is very cautious in arranging such a young talent.

From the perspective of tactical play, Trapani has Zeman, a team that advocates offensive football, which is the best for offensive players like Palladino. He can train here and fully tap his offensive potential. It doesn't matter if he doesn't have much game time. In a team that advocates offense, he can get more opportunities to face the goalkeeper and score goals, which is very good for his confidence.

Although Palladino was given time by Trapani perfunctorily this season, he really scored 5 goals here.

So they also benefited from doing this, but it can also be said that Trapani is irresponsible.

Trapani will also have to be so responsible in the future and consider it carefully. If they are afraid that the other party will not be dedicated to the lease, they will sell half of the ownership. At worst, they will agree to buy back the other half at a high price.

The three chatted in the corridor for a long time before the players finished their showers. Trapani was not big, and everyone was too lazy to take a car. Hugo and the coaching staff led a group of young people to the Colleni Hotel on the seaside.

The young people were a little reserved at first, but then they showed their true colors as they walked. They laughed and laughed all the way. The results were good, and Messi was not seriously injured, so everyone was naturally happy.

"I really hope I can start over in this life. Maybe I can become a professional player! Just like some of them!" Hugo couldn't help but sigh.

Allegri and Seli both burst out laughing. They have seen Hugo's level. It can't be said that he is terrible. After all, he has received two years of professional training. However, it is difficult to gain a foothold in an amateur team. He has proved that he does not have that talent. He is not Victor Colleni.

"You, even if you were exposed to football early, you were just a soy sauce role in the amateur team! I don't think you can become a professional player!" Allegri said to Hugo.

"At the very least, I have to reach your level!" Hugo also mocked Allegri. Allegri's career was not brilliant, and he spent almost all of it in low-level teams.

"I can make money to support my family! If you play professional football, I'm afraid you can't even support your family!" Allegri argued.

The next day, Trapani played away against Venice. Hugo did not follow the team to the away game, but stayed in Trapani and organized a youth training work meeting. In fact, he wanted to hear any suggestions from the youth training camp. Trapani's hardware conditions were fine, but the key was soft power. What was needed? Hugo wanted to hear what the coaches of the youth training camp said.

At the meeting, Allegri raised another question, that is, the director of the youth training camp. Originally, Allegri was the general person in charge of the youth training work, but Allegri felt that he was not that kind of material, and his focus was on participating in the youth league. He was qualified to be a coach, but it was quite irresponsible to be the person in charge of the youth training camp.

"Gigi, if we really want our youth training to be outstanding, then we should have a dedicated youth training director who can manage the youth training work. It is not enough to rely on the coach to do everything!" Allegri said sincerely. He did not want to evade responsibility. To be honest, Trapani asked a coach to do the youth training work, which was a bit ridiculous, and Hugo also knew that his ambition was not a youth training camp at all.

Hugo had a headache listening to such words, but he had to accept it. He did not know much about talents in this area, and Seli also could not know too much. He neglected the management in this area in the previous stage, and it was not easy to find a youth training director.

Hugo has realized that the position of youth training director is very important in the past two days. The team coaches, team doctors, and players below the youth training camp are all under the management of this director. Whether he is outstanding or not is related to whether Trapani's youth training camp is outstanding. Whether he can continue to transfuse blood to the first team depends on him.

Since Allegri has made such a request, Hugo simply asked the coaches of the youth training camp to see if they have any candidates. He did not mention the intention of letting these coaches compete for the position. It is not that he looks down on these coaches. Privately, he knows that some coaches are not very satisfied with the current methods of the youth training camp. Hugo hopes that the youth training camp can advocate offense. Most of the coaches are Italian. Traditional thinking does not think this is a good policy, but these coaches also understand that Hugo has given them a bowl of rice to eat, so they just do what he says and do not object.

Now Hugo asked them to recommend, of course, they recommended those youth training directors they knew in Italy, including those from Inter Milan, Atalanta, and Juventus.

Hugo did not comment. After a meeting, Hugo talked about this matter alone with Allegri. Hugo said frankly that he hoped that the new youth training director could advocate offensive football like Zeman.

"Gigi, this is Italy! Not somewhere else! Sometimes we need to maintain our own characteristics! Mr. Zeman is indeed the spokesperson for offensive football, but what's the result? He can't win the championship. He couldn't win the championship in Lazio and Rome!" Allegri also euphemistically expressed his dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction with the concept.

"You are too biased! He didn't win the championship because Lazio and Rome were not strong!" Hugo shook his head to express his disagreement.

"Italian football is very tactical. Mr. Zeman's offensive football is indeed beautiful, but there will be many teams in Italy studying him. Will they not take advantage of his defensive loopholes? Just wait and see. Trapani's performance in Serie B has improved now. I don't know what kind of problems they will face in Serie A. How much can a team that doesn't know how to defend do in Serie A and in Europe?!" Allegri was also unconvinced. He didn't really admire Zeman's set. Who doesn't want to attack? The key is to consider defense. This is the football environment in Italy. Others spend a lot of effort on defense, but you don't pay much attention to defense. The intention is to score one more goal than others, but you can't learn to keep the fruits of victory, and you will always be in trouble.

If Hugo and Zeman are in a honeymoon period now, he doesn't believe what Allegri said. They don't agree with each other. He said a few words to Allegri and the conversation ended. Allegri had no choice but to walk out of Hugo's office.

He really wants the best for Trapani. After all, his years in Trapani were one of the happiest days of his career. He also hopes that Trapani can rise, but Mr. Zeman's past has told him that it is very difficult for Zeman to win the Serie A championship!

He also watched the first-team games. He didn't think Zeman was good at defense and organization? ! There are too many responsibilities for the defenders to bear. How can we trust the young players' midfield interception ability too much? !

Hugo would not listen to what Allegri said anyway. He drove to the headquarters in the city again and found Giorgio. He asked him to look for a youth training director, but there was one thing, he firmly did not want Italians. Hugo seemed to have seen the elements of Italian youth training managers in Allegri, which was probably the case.

"Then where should I find it?!" Giorgio frowned.

To be honest, Hugo wanted to change the general manager when he saw his expression. This general manager is very unreliable. You ask me, who should I ask? ! I don't know either! You can find it however you want? !

"You decide!" Hugo left after saying this, and Giorgio was still frowning.

The reason why the management of Trapani is harmonious is that Giorgio doesn't care about anything. If it were another team, they would definitely have to compete with Celi on transfer issues, because Celi's authority is too great.

Hugo didn't say anything, so Giorgio went to find Celi. Celi was originally a scout and knew the situation in Italy very well. Hugo said he didn't want to hire a domestic player, and Celi didn't know much about foreign players, so he only agreed to help Giorgio find out.

Trapani returned to Sicily with a victory, but the bad news was that Toni was injured. During the game, he pulled his thigh muscle in a fight with his opponent. The team doctor told him that he might miss a few games, and it was expected to take a month.

There is another good news. Lucarelli scored a goal. Since joining Trapani at the end of January, Lucarelli only got 23 minutes of playing time in the three games in February. First, he was new and unfamiliar with his teammates and team tactics. At this stage, every game is very important to Trapani. Zeman dare not act rashly. He has few opportunities to play. Second, there are only three games in February, and he can't play more. In this away game against Venice, Toni was injured in the 13th minute of the first half. Zeman still hopes to have a high point in the frontcourt. Lucarelli finally waited for the opportunity again.

He was a little unfamiliar with his teammates, but he still headed and kicked, completing a brace and helping Trapani get three points.

This is undoubtedly good news for Zeman. In addition to the league in March, Trapani also has two rounds of the Italian Cup semi-finals with Lazio. Toni is absent, and the striker really needs a striker. Piolo's level is limited. It is really appropriate for an experienced striker like Lucarelli to find the feeling of scoring goals.

"The iron tree is blooming! It seems our luck is not so bad after all!" Hugo also joked to Lu Fan next to him.
