My name is Colani

Chapter 321 49. Disastrous defeat at Brescia

"Chris, I already understand your thoughts, and I also understand your desire to leave!" Hugo pondered for a moment, then sat upright and said to Lucarelli.

"First of all, I want to apologize to you. I am not the kind of headstrong coach. I admit that you have fewer and fewer opportunities under me. This is an indisputable fact! But I don't want you to leave!"

"You have always been an important part of the team's forward line, and the team has never planned to let you leave!"

"But I really don't want to sit on the bench anymore..." Lucarelli said.

Hugo waved his hand, "Chris, I think you can think about it again!"

"I will tell you that Trapani will be completely different next season. First, I want to tell you that I will no longer be the head coach of the team next season. Mr. Zeman will return to the team and resume his role as coach." Team coach! You should know that his hiring habits are different from mine. I know you were highly valued by him last season, and I think you will still be highly valued by him in the new season!”

Lucarelli was shocked by the first news. This was the first time Hugo revealed to the team's players that Zeman would return next season, not counting Victor!

Lucarelli couldn't believe it. Is it fair to say that Hugo didn't do enough as a head coach? ! No, now the outside world praises Hugo very much. They all think that despite losing Cristiano Ronaldo and Trapani not having a big improvement, they can still reach this point. They have overfulfilled the task. Of course, this is due to the media underestimating the combat effectiveness of Trapani's young players. Of course, it is also due to Hugo and the coaching staff. They have done a great job and the team's players are now convinced of the coaching staff.

Lucarelli originally thought that Hugo would stay as Trapani's head coach for a long, long time, but he really didn't expect that Hugo would suddenly say he would quit next season.

"Why?!"

"Haha, what's so surprising about this?! I'm a businessman, not a full-time head coach! Hehe, the head coach's job is too hard! I'm here to enjoy life, not to suffer. I overestimate my own hardship. "Power!" Hugo said with a smile, speaking very frankly.

Lucarelli was also a little amused, shrugged, and smiled helplessly.

"Ahem, this is the first factor, good for you!" Hugo pointed at Lucarelli and said, "The second good thing is that we have to work hard during this period to qualify for the European competition. Of course it would be best to qualify for the Champions League. If not, it would also be great to qualify for the UEFA Cup! We will have a lot of games to play next season, and your opportunities will definitely increase. I think you can stay here. Won’t spend a lot of time on the bench like this season!”

"With these two advantages, I think you really need to think about it! You can get more money from me and pursue more and higher honors. The disadvantage is that you may not have as much playing time as you would in other places. It's enough for a weakling, but I believe it's also enough. You need to weigh it carefully whether you really need to leave!" Hugo kept making gestures to express his meaning.

After a slight pause, Hugo said: "The club really doesn't want you to leave. If you think about it carefully and still want to leave, then I will let you leave, but only if we find a suitable replacement. Only then can you leave! I also hope you can understand!”

Lucarelli was a little surprised that Hugo was so reasonable, but it was always a good thing. He also told Hugo that he would think about it carefully and seek the advice of his agent.

broker? ! The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Hugo had the agent in his ears. After Lucarelli left, Hugo immediately called Giorgio and asked for Palavicino's phone number. Giorgio It's the general manager, Palavicino is the agent for the team's players, and of course Giorgio has one.

Hugo dialed Pallavicino's phone as quickly as possible.

"Hello, this is Carlo Palavicino, who are you?!" Palavicino's voice rang on the other end of the phone. He was in his office in Rome.

"I am Gianluigi Colaini!"

"Ah, Mr. Colaini!" Palavicino was startled. In fact, Lucarelli's transfer was all operated by Celi and Giorgio. Palavicino had never even met Hugo. , now that Hugo has taken the initiative to call, it cannot be that there is something wrong with Cristiano Lucarelli.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Hugo is a well-known and influential figure in the Italian football circle. In fact, in the agent circle, few people are willing to deal with Hugo. Firstly, Hugo’s background is not simple, and secondly, Hugo’s football Many players on the team were born into humble beginnings and have no agents at all. Many good players like Tony and Kameni who are being watched by teams do not have agents. It has long been rumored that Hugo said that his players do not need agents. Trapa Ni will give them the best, and many agents are afraid of Hugo and have not had in-depth contact with Trapani's players.

This resulted in the Italian agent circle having less contact with Trapani, but more foreign ones. Who makes Trapani love to introduce players from abroad?

"What do you want from me?! Mr. Colleni!" Palavicino asked immediately.

Hugo told me about Lucarelli. After listening to Hugo's detailed description, Paravicino gradually felt relieved. He paid special attention to Hugo as a person rather than Lucarelli. From Hugo's words, Paravicino felt that Hugo was not as weird as the rumors said. He was a maverick boss. At least his words were reasonable. So he became bolder and spoke more freely.

"Mr. Colani, Chris has talked to me about his situation. I believe you can understand his feelings. Sitting on the bench for a long time is not a solution! To be honest, I haven't planned to find a new club for him. I think he is doing well in Trapani, but I hope you can give him more playing time! What do you want me to do?!" Paravicino made his request.

"Next season, he will definitely have more opportunities. You should know that we are very likely to appear in the European war. I don't want to lose him next season. I hope you can persuade him to keep calm. His opportunity will always come. In Trapani, at least in terms of money, I will definitely not treat him and you badly!" Hugo made his request.

After thinking about it, Pallavicino agreed, but he did not promise Hugo that he could convince Lucarelli to stay.

Pallavicino's pragmatic attitude won Hugo's favor. Hugo liked him a little and praised him a few times, which made Pallavicino flattered. Many people in the agent circle were unwilling to deal with Hugo because of rumors that he was weird and neurotic, but they also wanted to deal with him. After all, since Hugo bought the team, everyone has heard rumors more or less. Hugo is very generous, who doesn't want to make more money?

Lucarelli is still thinking about his future, and Trapani continues to fight for the European war. Facing Brescia, Trapani suffered a big loss and lost 2:5 away. It was a miserable defeat. Brescia, who played at home, was very humble, and Trapani was the aggressive party.

Ribery, who finally got the starting position, messed up his performance. In the first half, he made two mistakes in the frontcourt, allowing Brescia to successfully seize Trapani's loopholes in the transition between offense and defense. Both counterattacks were successful, and Baggio, who has announced his retirement at the end of this season, scored twice.

Ribery's frequent mistakes and poor performance made Hugo unbearable, and he replaced him at the end of the first half. In the midfield, he criticized the team's offensive and defensive quality, but the nightmare had just begun.

Trapani, eager to overtake the score, was tactically adventurous and kept pressing forward. Although the offense improved, the loopholes in the back line were also increasing. Brescia scored three more goals in the second half, while Trapani only scored two goals.

"This game is unforgivable! We shouldn't have lost this game! I wonder if some of our players are still worthy of the jerseys on their bodies!" Hugo's accusatory tone was very strong in the press conference after the game.

"Mr. Colemani, we have suffered two consecutive defeats! The team's ranking has dropped to seventh place. Does this mean that your dream of entering the European war will be shattered!" a reporter asked.

"If we continue in this state, we will achieve nothing! I hope the players will fight for the fans next. There are hundreds of fans who came from afar today, but the team failed them! Our entire team is responsible!" Hugo said angrily.

"So what is your responsibility?!"

"I chose the wrong starter!"

Hugo regretted using Ribery. Perhaps because he had not started for a long time, Ribery's desire to perform was too strong, but his performance was very bad, and the midfielder's condition today was also a bit unbelievable.

Hugo was very angry about his own team, but for Brescia and the old immortal Baggio, Hugo had only sincere admiration. Baggio was so old and still had the ability to create threats on the court, but the way was different.
