Star Coach

After coming out of the palace, Walker and Jiang Shan checked into the Makassar Villa Hotel. Apart from anything else, the environment was very good.

"I just don't understand, why do you want the position of youth team coach?" Walker said with disdain, "When the time comes to fall out with Sacchi, the Monaco royal family will be involved, which is very annoying."

"Don't you think that with Saki's recommendation, I'm much more likely to get a PRO certificate?" Jiang Shan asked with a smile.

Don't forget that Jiangshan only had a B-level coaching certificate before. With the recommendation of several famous coaches and Wukang University, he finally obtained an A-level coaching certificate. He is already a very young A-level coach.

If you want to officially coach a top team, PRO is essential, otherwise he can only stand on the sidelines as an acting coach or assistant coach, which is uncomfortable.

Walker reacted, "You still don't understand what Albert means? He asked you to do Saki. Can you not do it? The prince will do it to you first."

"If I don't establish a good relationship with Sacchi first, how can I coach the youth team?" Jiang Shan rolled his eyes at him. "The most important thing for the youth team is to reserve talents for the first team. This is my job."

"Besides, I have partial authority to recruit people. If I want to buy someone, I need Sacchi's nod. He is the head coach and cannot be avoided no matter what."

"You do think about your customers."

"I learned from you." Jiang Shan picked up the Pu'er tea that the maid had brewed for a long time, "Have a cup. The prince's arrangements are really thoughtful. Anyway, I like such a comfortable life."

"But you have to make a choice. You can't be in two different boats." Walker reminded, "When the time comes, you will fall to the ground and no one can save you."

"I have time to write a test paper, let alone such a big thing. Have tea." Jiang Shan greeted calmly.

Volcker was the one to worry about the contract. Jiangshan only told him his own conditions, and other Volckers would help him get the best.

Jiang Shan chose to talk to Saki on the phone first. The guy was on vacation, but he was probably not in a good mood.

The two were old acquaintances, and Sacchi was also surprised that Jiang Shan would become the coach of the youth team. He is also the team's technical director and has the right to consult on recruitment.

Sacchi rejected the invitation of Parma's technical director for the position of Monaco coach. When he became the head coach, he also invited Jiangshan to join his coaching staff. Unfortunately, Jiangshan had already decided to take Hoffenheim with him.

After going around and around, the two became partners again.

When chatting with acquaintances, the topic is finally relatively relaxed. Sacchi is also a professional coach and doesn't like conflicts at the top. It's uncomfortable for him to be caught in the middle. Before the end of the season, several old players wrote a letter hoping to replace the head coach.

His bald head became even brighter with anger, literally. Just after winning the Champions League berth, do the players want to make substitutions? The players may have forgotten who took them from 11th to 2nd place in the league.

"Well, Prince Albert gave me 3 million euros of transfer authority. Can I bring you good players?"

Since the euro came into circulation in 2002, the salary contract between Jiangshan and Monaco has been settled in euros.

"It seems you have heard about it," Sacchi sighed on the other end of the phone, "but you can't help. Albert gave you 3 million euros to strengthen the youth team and improve your results." It’s not too ugly.”

"The biggest role of the youth team is to reserve talents for you, isn't it? So, there is no need to be polite to me." Jiang Shan said sincerely, "I can choose cheap players. I would like to ask your opinion."

Sacchi pondered for a while, "If you want to introduce players, my suggestion is, a forward, a winger, and a full-back, that's enough. As for famous players, you don't have to waste time, you can't buy them with 3 million euros." ”

"With that little money, you probably won't be able to buy a useful striker." Sacchi said with a smile, "Of course, this is a good opportunity for you to play. You should have a certain understanding of the young players in Ligue 1. I like yours." data analysis."

"Indeed, since you opened your mouth, I will help you bring in three players. Do you know Evra? I plan to sign him as my first order."

"He is already on our recruitment radar, and I will let the team sign him." Sacchi was very satisfied with Jiangshan's judgment, "But the first team can pay this money."

When Jiang Shan was preparing to join Monaco, he had already searched in his mind. There were many little monsters in Ligue 1, and he could spend a small amount of money to acquire famous players.

According to the development of football history in the previous life, Evra will transfer to Monaco in this summer window. The transfer fee will be around 4 million euros, and he will switch from winger to full-back.

Now that history has changed, Jiangshan did not expect that Evra was also on Sacchi's attention. I don't know how he positioned Evra.

Now that the team wants to buy Evra, things will be easier to handle, otherwise Jiangshan's 3 million euros really can't buy Evra. He participated in this transfer, playing a supporting role and getting familiar with the players.

He can focus more on other players.

Jiang Shan listened to Sacchi's ramble, and his heart was as bright as a mirror. He basically determined which players had conflicts with Sacchi.

"The team's frontcourt players, Giuly and Puschauer, have very strong personal abilities. Relying on them, the team will definitely be able to make a difference in the Champions League."

"Giuly is that electric mouse, he only has eyes for women, he is unreliable, huh." Sacchi made no secret, "I have asked the team to sell Giuly. This guy can't play the football I want."

"And there is Pussor, who is as slow as an old cow and can't run the tactics I want. If the team wants to achieve results and make a difference in the Champions League, it must change to a tall and fast striker."

Ludovic Giuly, nicknamed the Electric Mouse, is only 165 cm tall, shorter than Messi, but he is very fast, has superb skills, can run and drill, and is really the biggest contributor to Monaco's entry into the Champions League final in 2004. After transferring to Barcelona, ​​he formed the first powerful trident of the Dream Team with Ronaldinho and Eto'o, and realized the dream of the Champions League.

As for Pussor, Jiangshan is also familiar with him. The Croatian player faced Super Laco in the Champions League in 2004 and staged a big four, which can be boasted for a lifetime.

Jiangshan was a little speechless after listening to Sacchi's complaints. The bald man actually had a conflict with them, plus the unruly Nonda, the player Monaco bought to replace Trezeguet. Isn't Sacchi courting death?

The core players in the front court are in conflict with the head coach. How can the team's offense be carried out? Jiangshan calmed down. His tactical characteristics were similar to Sacchi's, focusing on defense and emphasizing tactical execution.

If he were the head coach, he would probably be directly destroyed by the players, let alone lead the team to achieve results.

Fortunately, Sacchi was in the front, giving Jiangshan some buffer time. He could study how to make offensive players play and how to formulate tactics around these players.

Replace Sacchi? It seems feasible.

Jiangshan decided to sign with Monaco. In the next few days, Walker's negotiations with Monaco progressed quickly.

Jiangshan's annual salary was also basically determined, 1.2 million US dollars, which was much higher than when he was in Germany. Sacchi's annual salary in Monaco was about 3 million US dollars, but this was the price of the entire coaching team. The money Sacchi actually received was about the same as Jiangshan.

In addition to various bonuses, as long as Jiangshan achieved results, the money he could get might even exceed 3 million US dollars, which was definitely a huge sum for a young coach.

Walker added a special clause according to Jiangshan's request. If Sacchi leaves the coaching position, Jiangshan will be replaced as the head coach, otherwise the penalty will be as high as 10 million US dollars. Albert also hopes that Jiangshan can replace Sacchi in the near future, and agrees excitedly.

If President Campora wants to make trouble at that time, he will definitely be forced to agree in view of the high penalty. However, he is also smart. He only agrees that Sacchi will be dismissed halfway and Jiangshan can lead the team until the end of the season.

The intention is obvious, Jiangshan is just a buffer candidate.

It is not easy to enter a big club, and it is even harder for young coaches to enter a big club.
