Godfather Of Champions

He was loaned to Lazio by Ancelotti last season in exchange for Pancaro. During the winter break, Galliani clearly told Albertini, who was still imagining: "There is no place for you in AC Milan today, Demi. Pirlo, Gattuso, these young people are in your place. We did a great job, not to mention we still have kaka..."

Albertini finally determined one thing: maybe he still doesn't know where the last stop of his career will be, but it is certainly not in San Siro.

In this way, in this cold winter, Albertini left Milanello alone and signed a new contract with Lazio-two years in service and an annual salary of 1.25 million euros after tax. Since then, he completely took off AC Milan's red and black sword striped shirt and put on the blue eagle Lazio blue jersey.

Unexpectedly, his Lazio career lasted only one season and was about to end. Lazio needs to sell a lot of players due to the financial difficulties of the team, and Albertini, who is considered "aging and frail", is naturally on their clean list. In fact, even if Lazio does not settle with Albertini, his agent Branchini will have a showdown with Lazio.

No, Atlanta, which has just been promoted from Serie B to Serie A, invited his players.

If the British did not appear, then they might have to agree to the terms of the Atlantans...

But now, Tony Dunn brought an Italian translation and gave them a more attractive invitation-the main player of the Forest team, no less than their original salary in Lazio (various bonuses are not included) ), as well as the opportunity to participate in the UEFA Cup. There is also a "2+1" contract that lasts for two years, and the last year of the contract depends on the status and number of appearances.

Albertini and Branchini murmured a few words, and his agent looked up and said to Dunn: "Demi wants to know what made you come here specifically from the UK. I hope he is a person who is already planning to retire. Join the team?"

If you ask this, it means there is a way. Dunn was overjoyed: "Although we are promoted just like Atlanta. The goal of Nottingham Forest is not to relegation. We have bigger plans. Does Atlanta qualify for the UEFA Cup this season? We do! And, the Forest team is now. Most of the young people, I believe that Demi, your experience is what the Forest team needs most. In addition, I think... Demi, at the age of thirty-two, it is really too early for you to start thinking about retirement! Thirty-two-year-old Paul Marr Tiny is still the captain of AC Milan. The thirty-two-year-old Rijkaard led a group of young people to the Champions League... and you, Demi, it's not that I'm talking nonsense. Now you have the same opportunity."

Dunn cited two important players in the history of Milan. This is a real example of what happened next to Albertini, and the weight is not light.

Albertini was silent for a while, and then personally asked: "I heard that the Italian players seem to be unhappy in the UK..."

"Oh no." Dunn shook his head, "Think of Zola, think of Viali. Zola is Chelsea's best foreign aid in history, and only lags behind Cantona in the Premier League ten-year best foreign aid selection. This achievement is not low, De M. I believe you will not be worse than them. Besides, what attracts you to Atlanta? Their jersey will only remind you of Inter Milan..."

Don't look down on this factor, but maybe it can play a decisive role.

Dunn is right. Atalanta's home jersey is a blue and black jersey. If you change to a chest advertising sponsor, it will be almost the same as AC Milan's rival Inter Milan. Albertini is a staunch supporter of AC Milan. Even in the 02-03 season, when the Milan club made it clear that he would abandon him, he said, "If I must leave, I hope I will play abroad. Because I don't want to fight with Milan. Enemy." Finally he went to Atletico Madrid.

Although he will go to Lazio next season, Dunn believes this is helpless. No team abroad looks at him, in order to be able to play, he can only choose to be loaned to Lazio by Milan, in order to loan from Rome to Ancelotti’s favorite Pancaro-this may be what he can do for Milan The last contribution made.

With more favorable conditions than Atlanta, the trust and respect of the coach, and the need not to face the psychological burden of AC Milan, Dunn firmly believes that Albertini belongs to him, so he stopped talking and quietly waited for the message from the other side of the table. Answer.

After listening to Dunn's words, Albertini closed his eyes. For him, what seemed to be a calm future has changed again. How should he take the last part of his career?

Going to Atlanta, there is no exciting goal. Maybe you will wear the captain's armband, then play for two years, and announce your retirement in obscurity. Only then will anyone remember it again-ah, the original Albertini of the Milan dynasty still Playing football! ?

Go to an unfamiliar team in an unfamiliar country and have a brand new challenge. Lead a group of hairy lads to work towards a goal higher than the UEFA Cup. Three years later, when he decides to retire, what kind of evaluation will he get?

Choose to die in obscurity, or try a new adventure, maybe it will succeed, or may still leave in obscurity...

Maybe a long time passed, maybe just a half-minute pause. Dunn finally waited for Albertini's answer.

The Italian with curly hair and a pale face lightly nodded: "I think... Mr. Tony Dunn, although I am not familiar with your team or even English football. But I think... this Maybe it's a choice worth my risk. Trust me and I won't let you down!"

At this moment, the lost Albertini disappeared, replaced by a young man who was rejuvenated with youthful brilliance, full of vitality and competitive spirit. That's right, the Englishman was right. He considered retiring at the age of thirty-two. It was too early!

Three days later, in Lazio's official list of players for the Japanese gold rush, there was no name of Dmitrio Albertini. The next day, the Lazio club announced that they had terminated their contract with Albertini. The club thanked Albertini for his contributions to the team over the past year and wished him luck.

In the afternoon of the same day, the official website of Notting Hansen Forest announced the first time that the team had introduced the Italian midfielder Dmitrio Albertini, who had been free of charge and Lazio’s termination. The two sides signed a two-year contract. At the end of the contract One year, will depend on Albertini's performance and the number of appearances to decide whether to renew the contract for another year.

Above the news is a photo of a curly-haired Italian standing with Tony Dunn, holding a forest team jersey. The number on this jersey is the same as Albertini's number four in Milan. The only difference is that there are no traces of black except for the red.

After dealing with Albertini's transfer, Dunn continued to set his sights on the experienced veterans, who are now the most in need of the Forest team.

Another person entering his field of vision is the former Spanish national team captain who has just left the Qatar League, and the captain of La Liga giants Real Madrid.

Unlike Albertini, Hierro left Real Madrid not because of his older age and declining competitive status, but because he offended the top of the club. So in the summer of 2003, Real Madrid had just won their 29th league championship, and the next day, Hierro was swept out by Florentino.

When this news was announced, it caused quite a stir. Hierro, who left the team, followed the advice of his agent and went to play in the rich Qatar League. But after a season, he couldn't tolerate the days of playing for money just like in Qatar, or he felt that he was not down to the point of going to the Qatar League for gold. So after a season, he decisively terminated the Qatar League team's contract and decided to find a somewhat strong European team.

At this time, the Forest team and Bolton approached Hierro's agent almost at the same time, which was the same as the results of previous competitions. Nottingham Forest, which has much better conditions than Bolton, won the favor of Hierro. The former Real Madrid captain thinks Tony Dunn’s Forest team is a team that really wants to do something big, and he is not at a loss for coming here. In other words, in such a team, he can have the opportunity to slap Real Madrid chairman Florentino.

The outside world has many opinions on the choice of Albertini and Hierro. The more dominant one is that the two have reached the late stage of their careers, hoping to come to a team to play their residual heat, and then wait to retire. No one believes that they came here with ambitions and dreams of success.

This is understandable, after all, losers always think that everyone in the world is like them.

They won’t have the chance to hear Dunn’s introduction to these two veterans during team training: “Boys, from now on, if you don’t work hard, your position will be taken away by the old guys!”
