Chapter 440 Attention from Real Madrid

Di Francesco said that there are still important games waiting for the players, obviously not talking about the league with Livorno on the weekend, but referring to the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals in the middle of next week.

It doesn't matter how the game against Livorno goes, as long as the players don't get injured.

But to be honest, Di Francesco may not even arrange for the main players to appear in this league.

This can also be seen from the training that follows.

The players discovered that the imaginary enemy in the coach's tactics and training was not Livorno at all, but Atletico Madrid.

It can be said that he directly gave up the league match against Livorno.

When the starting list was announced before the game, none of those who played in the Coppa Italia final - even those who came off the bench - did not appear in this starting list.

Although Gao Zheng went to the sidelines to warm up with his teammates from time to time during the game, he was never sent on the field. Even if the team fell behind Livorno 1:2, it only needed one goal to be unbeaten. Di Francis Ke didn't replace him.

In the end, Sampdoria lost 1:2 to Livorno at home.

After this game, Sampdoria's league ranking is still tenth. This is the team's second consecutive defeat. At the same time, the last five league rounds have been unable to win-four losses and one draw.

This is the best proof that the league has been influenced by the Italian Cup and the Champions League.

However, in the eyes of many people, this impact is not a big deal. Although they have lost five consecutive rounds in the league, Sampdoria won a Coppa Italia championship because of this. If it were any other mid-range team, if they could win five rounds in exchange for a Coppa Italia champion, they would probably agree without hesitation.

So now no one will use the loss to Livorno to criticize Sampdoria and hype the topic of Sampdoria's crisis.

To be honest, no matter how stupid the media is, they can't do such an idiotic operation.

And the media will never waste time and space on an ordinary league.

They immediately set their sights on Madrid.

After the game against Livorno, Sampdoli boarded the plane to Madrid on Monday to prepare for the game against Atletico Madrid.

And the place where they train in Madrid is Real Madrid's training base-Real Madrid Sports City.

※※※

"This training base is really big..."

"How many training grounds do they have?"

"Tsk tsk, I can't see the end at a glance..."

"As expected of the world's top giants, I think this training base is almost catching up with half of Boliasco!"

...

The Sampdoria players sat on the bus and looked at the Real Madrid Sports City, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Even Gao Zheng stared at the green training ground intently.

He once visited the Milanello training base when he was very young, but in his opinion, the Milanello training base is not as grand as the Real Madrid Sports City.

I have to admire Real Madrid's top giants.

It can be seen only from the training base.

Compared with Real Madrid Sports City, Sampdoria's Mughnaini training base is like a primary school playground.

The training ground that Sampdoria borrowed is not on the side of Real Madrid's first team, but on the training ground of the youth team, but even so, the quality of the venue is better than that of Sampdoria's first team. This is the level of the rich. After the rich, more money can be used to maintain equipment, but the small clubs naturally don't have that ability, so they can only make do with it.

The dressing room used by the Sampdoria players is not in the same building as the Real Madrid first-team dressing room.

This made some Sampdoria players a little disappointed-they thought they could get in touch with those superstars at close range and say hello or something.

For example, Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese is the only superstar comparable to Messi, and he is also an idol in the minds of many players.

"Okay, calm down, calm down!" Captain Palumbo slapped his hands vigorously at the door of the locker room, reminding his teammates. "We are not here to chase stars, but to prepare for battle!"

Everyone murmured that except for the locker room, they came to the training ground to warm up.

When the Sampdoria players had already started training on the field, Sampdoria's manager Sagramola received Real Madrid's club general manager Jose Angel Sanchez on the sidelines.

"I am very grateful to the Real Madrid Club for taking the initiative to extend a helping hand, which is really important to us!" When Sagramola held Sanchez's hands, his attitude was almost flattering.

Although everyone is the general manager of the club, the general manager and the general manager are different.

The general manager of Real Madrid has a much higher status in European football than the general manager of Sampdoria.

Sanchez, the general manager of Real Madrid, was very reserved in the face of Sagramola's initiative. He just nodded and said lightly: "It's just a little effort."

When he said this, he didn't even look at Sagramola, but kept staring at the field.

Following his gaze, we could see that he was observing Gao Zheng.

Sagramola was not very surprised by this, but just sighed in his heart.

With Gao Zheng's outstanding performance in the Champions League this season, it may be even more difficult for the club to keep him.

He also knew in his heart why Real Madrid offered to lend the training base to Sampdoria so that they could come to Real Madrid Sports City for training. Isn't it convenient for them to observe Gao Zheng up close?

You know, it's no secret that the world's top giants are interested in Gao Zheng.

Sagramola even speculated that maybe the Real Madrid club would use this opportunity to reach a tacit agreement with Gao Zheng's agent in private.

If by the end of the season, news of Real Madrid's attack on Gao Zheng came out, Sagramola would not be surprised at all. He is even waiting for an offer from Real Madrid.

He believes that if Real Madrid makes a move, Gao Zheng should not be able to refuse, unless Barcelona also offers an olive branch.

He sighed in his heart, this is the seedling of a real world-class star, Gao Zheng has far surpassed Sampdoria, and even the level of Serie A.

Even if it is the duo of Juventus and Milan, it may be difficult to win Gao Zheng's favor.

Sampdoria is destined to be unable to keep Gao Zheng, so they can only think about how to make a fortune from Gao Zheng.

Sanchez did not hide the purpose of his trip in front of the general manager of the Sampdoria club at all. He just stared at Gao Zheng openly and carefully observed him handling the ball.

Even if he is not a professional scout or sports director, he can fully see that Gao Zheng is outstanding.

Among so many Sampdoria players, Gao Zheng is the one who attracts people's attention wherever he goes.

The skills and abilities he showed in training also fascinated Sanchez.

Seeing this scene from the side, Sagramola looked a bit unhappy, thinking that my buddies know that you guys are interested in Gao Zheng, but I'm also here, at least don't act so naked, okay, can you show me some face?

But he also knew that he could only speak with his mouth.

If Real Madrid really wanted to buy Gao Zheng from them, he wouldn't even be able to offer an outrageously high price to disgust Real Madrid, because at that time Gao Zheng should be on the side with Real Madrid...

Now he can only stand aside silently, watching the general manager of the Real Madrid club look at Gao Zheng with almost greedy eyes. On the grassland, there are ten thousand grass mud horses galloping...

PS, tonight is the battle between China and South Korea in the group stage, the highlight of this group.

I know that there is a big gap between the Chinese team and the South Korean team in terms of individual strength and overall strength, but this is not the reason why I have no expectations for this game.

I still hope that the Chinese team can compete with the goal of defeating the South Korean team.

I know it is difficult, very difficult, and almost impossible. After all, the South Korean team this time is not like the lack of Sun Xingmin in the last world preliminaries.

But there is still a glimmer of hope in my heart.

It is a foregone conclusion to qualify for the group stage, why not let go of the burden and have a serious fight with the South Korean team?

Of course, no matter what the final result is, I will always support the Chinese team.
