60 African Satellite

Some people say that Italy and China are two very close peoples, both as intelligent and as creative.

Think about the Renaissance, and then think about the cultural heritage of China's 5,000 years of history, which can prove the wisdom of these two nations.

But sometimes, smart means transgression!

Use Xiao Yu's most familiar football to say things.

China's gambling style is well known. It can even be said that players who play in China without participating in gambling are rare; but what about Italy? They even arrange referees over the phone, how to enforce the law!

It is also said that the Chinese like to pin their hopes on the next generation. Xiao Yu does not know whether Italy has such a statement, but in fact, the old De Rossi is such a person.

Strict football training for Daniel De Rossi from an early age, hoping to train him into an outstanding striker. Even after being rejected many times by the youth academy in Rome, he still insisted that his son had inherited him. An excellent football gene will definitely become an outstanding football player.

I believe that if it was not for Xiao Yu, he would continue to be so stubborn.

For Daniel De Rossi, the old De Rossi rarely gives him encouragement. Usually he tells him the most about the mistakes he made on the football field, even at the dinner table, he will give it without hesitation. criticism.

For many years, the only connection between their father and son was as if there was only blood flowing in their respective bodies, as well as the football they loved.

Seeing the encouragement that Xiao Yu gave to Almunia last night, the old De Rossi began to feel very disliked, but he also had to admit that when they left, the blind could see the glow of Almunia. , There was no sullenness when they first met.

Everyone knows that this is what Xiao Yu said.

Also a young man, De Rossi is even smaller than Amunia, but he will not experience less frustration than Amunia. Does this mean that he also needs more encouragement than Amunia?

This is the first time De Rossi has reflected on himself.

Of course, this is just reflection in his heart. Proud, he will not tell anyone about his son and his son, including his awesome wife.

"Alberto, your whole eyes are dark. Are you sick?" Kassel looked at the debilitated old De Rossi during breakfast and asked with concern.

"No, it's a bit lacking!" Old De Rossi responded casually, sat down, beckoned the waiter, and ordered a breakfast.

"Fatigue? No wonder I saw your room wasn't moving last night. Did you go to the corner of the street where the red lights are on?" Kassel joked.

Old De Rossi just smiled, but didn't speak.

Xiao Yu was eating breakfast and suddenly asked, "Is this the first time you have left Italy?"

"How do you know?" Old De Rossi was startled.

Xiao Yu and Kassel looked at each other, shaking their heads and laughing, both of them were in their 30s and 40s, and there was still homesickness. It was really ...

"Or wait for you to go back first, and we have to go outside!" Xiao Yu suggested with concern.

"Where to?"

"Go to Africa first, then Brazil, and then return to Manchester!" Cassel responded.

"Yeah, almost around the earth, or else you go back to Italy to prepare for it, I will let the people over the club help you arrange it, you can go at any time." Xiao Yu also said with understanding.

The old De Rossi obviously moved, but immediately changed his mind, shook his head and refused, "I still don't need it, I believe I can overcome it!"

Obviously, if you are homesick, you should return to Italy now, but what next? How can I live long in Manchester?

Xiao Yu nodded, not reluctantly, but Cassel helped the old De Rossi to give out a few ideas and did not know whether they were crooked or positive.

Three people ate breakfast, and the taxi that the hotel called for arrived.

Transit in Spain, they appeared in Accra, the capital of Ghana, in the afternoon.

As soon as I got out of the gate, I saw someone holding up a big English phrase with a big freelancer, obviously a representative of the freelance club who came to welcome Xiao Yu and his party.

This young African man with a pair of eyes looks gentle and dressed in a straight suit, but he is not tall, but it feels very solid, which is also a common intuitive impression of Africans.

"Hello, may I ask Mr. Xiao Yu from the New Manchester United Club in England?" Before Xiao Yu and others entered, the young man had taken the lead to confirm them.

Xiao Yu smiled and nodded, "Yes!"

"I'm the representative of the freelance club. My name is Merlot."

Xiao Yu heard it for a moment, and immediately remembered the previous life who applied for a red card at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and staged the Angel and Devil Brazilian player Merlot.

The two names are pronounced nearly the same, but the letter combinations are completely different.

After confirming the identities of both parties, Xiao Yu and the three of them followed Merlo and left the airport with confidence.

Although Africa is chaotic, after all, Accra is the capital of Ghana. There are a lot of tourists who just come and go every year, and the law and order must not be worse.

"Have you been waiting long at the airport?" Xiao Yu asked casually while sitting in the car.

"The staff of your club has taken the lead to call us, telling you about the plane you are flying on and the time of arrival, so I have just arrived." Merlot answered as he drove.

The road from the airport to the city is not smooth, making Xiao Yu and others sitting in the car have to endure bumps all the way.

At first they felt nothing, they were all looking out of the car with interest, and they would pass through residential areas along the way, and they could directly realize what the life of ordinary residents in Ghana looks like.

"People here live in poverty, so many of them desperately want to send their children to play football, and those children who want to play football are desperate, they all want to leave this place and go to heaven Europe! "

Merlot obviously had sympathy for these ordinary people in Ghana.

"The children here are like Brazil, starting to play football from the street?" Kassel pointed curiously at a group of Ghanaian teenagers running after the football.

"Of course, Ghana does not have such good facilities as Europe, and you need to know that African juveniles are much stronger than Brazilian juveniles in terms of physical fitness. In such places, playing football on the street has become the cheapest Entertained. "

"What about the general operating conditions of clubs in Africa?" Xiao Yu asked this question.

Merlot sighed, "It's terrible, worse than you can imagine. You can imagine the same. In such a poor and lacking market environment, if a football club is to survive, that's one thing. What a difficult and difficult task. "

After Xiao Yu heard it, he already had an understanding in his mind.

Nowadays, African football is a bit like the oldest Brazil, the same backwardness and chaos, and the same prolific star. The only difference is that Brazil is the football kingdom, and now African football is just on the way to rise.

It would be hard to imagine how profound the significance of the 2010 South Africa World Cup for African football would be if it were not for Africa.

The city of Accra is not crowded, and even cars are rare. Coupled with the locals like Merlot driving, they came to the office of the Freelancer Club unhindered along the way.

The office is actually just a few houses under the stadium's stands, and the capacity of this stadium is not large. According to Merlot, it can only accommodate up to 10,000 fans.

Despite having its own stadium and despite being located in Ghana's capital, in fact, the freelance club is even far worse than the New Manchester United team in England's fifth league.

Therefore, when the Freelancer Club received a call from New Manchester United staff, they immediately paid great attention to the visit of Xiao Yu and others.

This is not a simple visit, but to come to negotiate the intention of the two clubs to cooperate in the next few years.

When Xiao Yu got out of the car, he immediately saw a short middle-aged African man chased from the office, shouting lame English, apparently saying hello to Xiao Yu, but mixed with too much localization, Xiao Yu He was a little confused.

"This is the chairman of our club, Mr. Magbu!" Merlot pointed to the African middle-aged introduction.

Xiao Yu immediately shook hands with the other party to say hello.

"Welcome guests from England!" This time, Magbu's English became clearer.

After a bit of embarrassment between the two sides at the gate, Magbe and Merlot invited the three of Xiao Yu into the office and passed the stadium gate along the way. They found that players who turned out to be freelance clubs were training in the stadium. Looking at their stadium grass, compared to Butcher's Knives are not much better.

Is this the home of Ghana's top league team?

Xiao Yu felt that he should re-evaluate his knowledge of Ghana and even African football. After all, in the next few years, this backward and poor land will become another major player exporter after South America.

The freelance club in Ghana is not a big-name club, it is always in the midstream, it has not scored well, and there has been no famous star, so such a club, even if it is located in the capital of Ghana, it is the same No one asked.

The main reason why Xiao Yu sat in this obviously renovated office was that he wanted to put a flag in Africa before African football was not well known, and secondly, freedom There are several players in the professional club who he is familiar with.

Incidentally, these stars are still very young, but they have a bright future.

"Mr. Magbu, I think the staff of our club should have talked to you on the phone about the purpose of our visit in detail, and I will not make any rounds. I do n’t know if your club is going to be our new Manchester United satellite in Africa. What's your opinion on the club's proposal? "Xiao Yu said immediately. 2k novel reading network
