Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Chapter 122 A new generation replaces the old, a new era in football is coming [Please subscribe, gu

Taking away two midfielders in succession, well, it's not time to hurt their muscles and bones. At least the Real Madrid fans feel at ease now when they look at Li Ang and Alonso who have no transfer scandals.

Real Madrid previously loaned Essien for a year and a half, so there is no need to worry about his early return to Chelsea.

There are also Kaka and Di Maria in the midfield, so as long as they introduce another midfielder and a midfielder, Real Madrid will be one of the top clubs in Europe in terms of midfield power next season.

In other words, if Long Ge and Li Ang don't leave, then Real Madrid's midfield will be as stable as a rock.

For the departure of Brother Face, Real Madrid fans are still grateful and somewhat sad.

In the two years since I came to Real Madrid, in addition to more injuries, my defensive efficiency has been lower, and my desire to go forward has increased.

My face brother is also a pretty good all-around midfielder.

He worked conscientiously when he was able to play. When he came on the bench, he was aggrieved and did not make any fuss.

After all, among the five championship trophies Real Madrid has won in the past two years, Brother Face has worked hard and sweated for Real Madrid.

Well, a real meritorious minister!

Moreover, for his own club, he can sell Brother Face for a "sky-high price" of 40 million euros.

Real Madrid fans still feel a little confused.

Last year, he sold an attacking midfielder, which cost Paris Saint-Germain a big blow, but the attacking midfielder performed quite well, so it was worth the money.

But Khedira's performance last season was quite satisfactory. If you include the premium from the wealthy family and the friendship price that Paris Saint-Germain is willing to give, it won't reach 40 million?

In a collective atmosphere of curiosity and joy, Real Madrid fans agreed that their transfer department had made a good deal.

But after another day, Real Madrid fans were not happy at all.

Not only were they not happy, they were also a little panicked!

Because the club officially announced that Kaka has left the team!

With one year left on his contract with Real Madrid, Kaka returned to Milan for a real "friendly price" of 8 million euros.

Milan fans cried, and here in Madrid, Real Madrid fans were not far away from crying either.

"I just won the championship and I'm going to have to part ways! Isn't this the end of the world?!"

"We have three midfielders, but we don't have any signings. Is Lafayette really going to sell someone to renovate the stadium? Can't we borrow money from the bank?"

"Let me guess, Cristiano will be sold tomorrow, right? Hahahahaha!"

"Hey, everyone, cheer up. Look, the players who have announced their departure from the team are not our main players."

"Yes, because after selling these players, we will soon sell the main players!"

Real Madrid fans were in an uproar on the Internet almost instantly.

However, out of trust in the chairman and head coach, few fans have left messages on the official website and official Twitter to question the transfer policy.

At most, some anxious fans left messages on Real Madrid players’ recent social posts, asking the players if they knew the club’s subsequent recruitment targets.

Li Ang was very honest and sent a question mark expression to the fans that he didn't know anything.

In fact, he did not know anything about the new teammates who might come to the club to report in the future.

Judging from his memory, he probably knew that Modric would come to Real Madrid in this summer window-if nothing unexpected happened.

But to say who else Mourinho has his sights on, he doesn't dare to draw any conclusions.

Regarding Kaka's choice to leave the team and return to Milan, Li Ang could only send his congratulatory phone call.

It was the same as when Granero and Brother Face left.

Whether they want to secure their main position or return to their favorite club, this is their career choice and their personal pursuit. What is there to persuade?

You talk about championships. I have won the La Liga and Champions League titles at Real Madrid. I have no regrets. Any decision I make at this time is normal.

At least Li Ang doesn't feel he is qualified to judge other people's transfer choices.

In the following days, Real Madrid started pre-season preparations for the new season.

Except for players who participated in the 2012 European Cup and Marcelo who played in the Olympics, who were eligible for delayed reporting, the rest of the Real Madrid first-team players arrived at the training base before July 18.

On the same day, Paris Saint-Germain officially announced the introduction of Ibrahimovic from Milan, which stole the show.

On July 19, Li Ang and Nacho, a group of friends from Castilla, officially started pre-season training.

And the transfer news that Real Madrid fans have been waiting for has also arrived.

The good news is that this time the person involved with Real Madrid is the hot potato in the transfer market, Javi Martinez of Athletic Bilbao.

The bad news is that more than one giant, Real Madrid, is eyeing Martinez.

Bayern Munich took action.

And the price quoted was 32 million euros!

So fans from both sides started arguing online again.

At this time, the chairman of Athletic Bilbao stepped forward again and muddied the battlefield.

"Martinez is not for sale to us! He is the cornerstone and future captain of our team. We will not choose to sell the soul of the club, so please stop all rumors about Martinez's transfer!"

Well, Biba's tough stance successfully caused the two fans to turn their fire.

These days, it is almost impossible for small and medium-sized clubs to keep a player and prevent him from going to a wealthy club.

Especially in La Liga.

As long as the player is interested, the wealthy club can directly use liquidated damages to force the player's transfer.

Martinez's liquidated damages are 40 million euros.

If they really want to force the purchase, both Real Madrid and Bayern can afford the money.

It's just that generally wealthy buyers still have to pay attention to face. If they poach someone by force, the price will be somewhat reduced.

For Real Madrid, it is also quite uneconomical to completely anger Athletic Bilbao within La Liga.

Moreover, Mourinho's demand for Martinez is not so firm, and he is simply taking a shot if there is no date.

It's good if he can buy it smoothly. If he can't, forget it. He also has other signing targets.

Therefore, after rumors that Real Madrid's bid of 37 million euros was firmly rejected by Athletic Bilbao, Real Madrid withdrew from the battle for Martinez.

On July 24, before the first pre-season warm-up match, Real Madrid finally officially announced its first signing of the new season.

A young black midfielder who is not very tall, but looks quite strong and capable.

Matuidi.

"I am really happy to sign with Real Madrid, the greatest club in football! I think my dream has come true at this moment and I am ready to give everything for Real Madrid and Mourinho !”

When Matuidi appeared at the press conference wearing Real Madrid's No. 6 jersey, information about his transfer was also disclosed by various media.

The first is the transfer fee. It is reported that Real Madrid paid 20 million euros for the young French midfielder.

Don't be surprised, if you calculate it, it's equivalent to Paris using Matuidi plus 20 million euros in exchange for Khedira.

Combined with Matuidi's current worth of 12 million euros, it can be calculated that Khedira's final sale price is not as high as 40 million.

In fact, it was just over 30 million, which was a slight premium, but Paris still didn't suffer much.

Soon, the media broke the news, saying that Paris and Real Madrid had already completed the deal, but the announcement was delayed.

The shocking transfer news of introducing Khedira for 40 million first moved Ibrahimovic. After completing Ibrahimovic's transfer, the news of Matuidi's transfer to Real Madrid was announced.

Well, at first many fans thought this was just a second-rate tabloid trying to gain attention.

But they thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this made sense!

In the end, Khedira received a high salary and the promise of a starting position, and Matuidi successfully transferred to Real Madrid. Wasn't it only Ibrahimovic who was fooled?

When Li Ang was worried about the transfer, he almost couldn't help but want to ask Mourinho if the specific details were as revealed by outside media.

But in the end, he didn't dare to ask, and it wasn't because he was afraid of the hair dryer or something, cough

On July 25, Real Madrid’s first friendly match of the pre-season started.

At the Carlos Tatierre Stadium, Real Madrid, which basically consisted of rotation and youth training players, defeated the Spanish second division B team Real Oviedo 4-1.

Li Ang's performance exceeded all Real Madrid fans' expectations.

Not only did he single-handedly control Real Madrid's organization during the game, he also scored two headers on the offensive end!

Although the opponent is very weak, Li Ang is also bringing little brothers. With this performance, it is difficult for countless Real Madrid fans not to look forward to Li Ang's performance in the new season.

The next day's "Aspen" also praised Li Ang, who seemed to have grown again in the offseason.

"This defensive midfielder who contributed six goals and twelve assists in fifty-seven games last season is still growing! He never seems to let down those who believe in him, whether it is his fans, his teammates, or him Coach, I think when La Liga starts in the new season, the other La Liga teams will be surprised again by Li Ang."

Mourinho looked at Li Ang who performed very well and was extremely satisfied.

On the evening of July 27, at the Stadium of Light, Li Ang, as the core, led this pieced together Real Madrid to face the Portuguese Super League giant Benfica.

New aid Matuidi partnered with Li Ang to play as a double defensive midfielder in this game. The two fought side by side, but they also created quite a "spark".

There must have been a lot of small mistakes, after all, the two of them had just practiced together seriously for a day.

But it has to be said that Li Ang's adaptability is still as strong as ever.

In the middle of the game, he signaled Matuididuo to press forward to sweep and cover, and took the opportunity to advance forward to attack.

As a result, Matuidi and his cooperation came out immediately.

Matuidi's forward penetration is not as frequent as Khedira's, and his sweep defense is more efficient.

The two of them swept and covered, and the other intercepted, which caused Benfica some trouble on the defensive end.

But their performance was not enough to make up for the mistakes of the defense.

Real Madrid conceded three goals.

On the offensive end, Morata scored a header, and Hesse, who came on as a substitute in the second half, made a beautiful shot from outside the penalty area.

Real Madrid lost 2-3 at the Stadium of Light, but Mourinho was quite satisfied with the result of this friendly match.

At least I am quite satisfied with the defense in the midfield.

However, Mourinho found that Li Ang was not as active in this game as in the previous one.

At least he tried two long-range shots in the last game. In this friendly match, Li Ang didn't hit a single shot.

As a loyal spectator during Li Ang's summer training, Mourinho had of course obtained the training schedule recorded by Li Ang's training team from Mendes.

Knowing that Li Ang's long-range shooting ability has improved a lot, Mourinho is still happy to give Li Ang more opportunities.

But he didn't say it right away.

After returning to Madrid, other stars of the Real Madrid first team who had taken a break in the previous stage returned to the training base to report.

Valdebebas, which had been a little deserted before, became lively again.

On August 1st, the nearly assembled members of the Real Madrid first team once again flew to the United States for pre-season training.

However, the time left for Real Madrid to travel to the United States this year is not as sufficient as in previous years.

As per the old rules, start with a friendly match against the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Before the game, Mourinho approached Li Ang and asked him not to restrain himself during the game. If he felt that he had a chance, he could boldly try a long-range shot.

"If you don't practice too much and don't try, then your practice will be in vain. Find more opportunities for yourself to play a few more kicks in friendly matches. Take your time and practice for two or three seasons. After all, you can add one more practical skill."

Mourinho patiently encouraged Li Ang.

After Li Ang received his words, he no longer had any psychological worries.

Anyway, he was not afraid of embarrassment and still took out four long-range shots in the friendly match.

How should I put it, at this stage, all of his long-range shots are accurate, six of them are powerful enough, but the accuracy is a bit erratic, and three of them are accurate enough, but the power is a bit weak.

Maybe there is only one kick left that can be considered a threat.

It can only be played when there is almost no one to defend it.

But at least he was able to get such a kick.

From knowing that I can't fight in my heart to daring to fight when I get the chance, this is a big improvement.

Just like Mourinho said, take your time, but it doesn't take two or three seasons to show some results.

He plans to give Mourinho a "little surprise" after the end of this season.

On August 6, Li Ang played another half of the friendly match against Santos Laguna.

He still found an opportunity to hit two long-range shots. Matuidi came on for him in the second half and worked with Long Ge and Essien for a while.

After playing this friendly match, the Real Madrid team returned to Madrid.

The transfer scandal between Modric and Real Madrid has exploded crazily in the past few days.

Modric, an honest man, was so angry that Levy stopped training. The entire Premier League was shocked by the various relevant information disclosed by the media. How could the public opinion not explode?

Specifically, in the past few seasons, Modric was recruited by two Premier League clubs, Manchester United and Chelsea.

He himself was tempted, but Levi blocked it twice, disrupting the transfer, so Modric later reached a gentleman's agreement with Levi.

The reason is that if he wants to leave the team, Tottenham will not put too many inexplicable obstacles in his transfer.

He will not help other teams lower the price. Tottenham will let him leave once they receive a satisfactory offer.

Levi agreed at the time.

As a result, this year, Real Madrid sent an offer, and Levy once again wanted to disrupt the transfer. The honest Modric was forced to endure it and stopped training directly.

It is currently heard that Tottenham have fined Modric internally for his behavior, but Modric's attitude has been very tough and resolute.

Either Tottenham will put him on the bench, or they will pay him to go to Real Madrid!

And now Levi, who doesn't want to lose both his people and money, has to start further negotiations with Real Madrid on the transfer fee.

Li Ang, who once again benefited from his own transfer, is already looking forward to joining Magic Flute.

As the saying goes, a new generation replaces the old, and he also believes that he can play a tacit cooperation with Magic Flute and Matuidi.

Another new era in football is about to sound the whistle.
