After being rejected, I became Shi Yijiao

Chapter 52
"What? All the tickets for this game are sold out? The audience is full?"

Lecce's team director, Moroni, listened to the manager's report, and his eyeballs almost popped out of his overjoyed.

As happy as it was, he still had a hard time believing it was real.

Lecce's home stadium Vidi Mari can accommodate [-] spectators.

For a small team in a small city with a population of less than [-], it is actually not an easy task to fill the stadium.

Not to mention Lecce's poor record this season is also driving their fans out of the stadium.

In the past six rounds of Serie A, Lecce has 1 win and 5 losses, scoring 4 goals and conceding 13 goals, with only 3 points. It ranks 20th among all 18 Serie A teams and has fallen into the relegation zone.

At their feet, there are even worse Cesena and Bologna, both with only 1 point, but the gap with Lecce is only one goal.

So this also explains why Moroney was so shocked.

Such a rubbish record, coupled with the fact that Lecce has no stars with appeal, it is really surprising that the stadium is suddenly full.

"Is it because our opponent today is AC Milan? They all came to see Milan perform?" Moroni thought of this possibility.

After all, since the start of this season, AC Milan has been in full swing, and most of the time they played pleasing to the eye and scored a lot of goals. It is understandable that they are sought after by fans.

"It is true that many fans from Milan have bought tickets." The manager nodded, "But there are still many... tourists from Dragon Kingdom."

"Dragon Kingdom? Tourists?" Moroni frowned. "Are they also here to watch the Milan game?"

Moroney is certainly self-aware.

Foreign fans come to Italy to watch football, of course, most of them come for the top three in the north, that is, Juventus and Milan.

They have the largest number of fans overseas.

After all, there are two teams in the capital, and below that, Fiorentina, Naples and the like, there are not many overseas supporters.

For a Serie A upgrade machine like Lecce, any Dragon Country fans, just dream.

"Yes, and no." The manager explained, "They are indeed all here for Milan, but specifically, they are here to support the assistant coach of Milan."

"Ah? Assistant coach?" Moroni was a little puzzled, "Who would watch the game to see the assistant coach?? Even if it is the head coach, in this world, fans can buy tickets to the scene. There aren’t many star coaches, are there?”

"His name is Pan Yi. He is from Longguo. He is only 25 years old this year. He is very popular with Longguo people." The manager introduced, "He is also the first coach from Longguo in the history of Serie A. And many coaches have mentioned that it is Because of his joining this season, Milan's tactical system has been improved, and thus they have won consecutive victories."

"Oh, no wonder. It's no wonder that Longguo has managed to produce a coach who can coach us here." Moroni frowned, "However, if he is really so good, how could he be just An assistant coach?"

"He is only 25 years old." The manager spread his hands and emphasized, "This is his first job. Isn't it too exaggerated to be the head coach of Serie A?"

"Also..." Moroni lowered his head in thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head, "Do you think it is possible for us to invite him over as our head coach?"

Nor could it be said that it was Moroney's whim.

With such a poor start to Lecce this season, he is also under a lot of pressure as the team director.

He has already moved the idea of ​​using coach Di Francesco as a scapegoat and firing him.

And if Pan Yi can be recruited at this time, maybe he can kill two birds with one stone.

First, if Pan Yi is really as powerful as the manager said, he will have a chance to bring Lecce out of the quagmire and avoid the bad luck of relegation;

Secondly, Pan Yi, as the darling of the Longguo people, wouldn't being the head coach in Lecce also increase attendance?
This game has improved significantly!

Even if the results don't improve a lot by then, it's good to be able to attract fans and make money.

It may even be possible to take this opportunity to open up the Dragon Country market, and it is really possible to make a lot of money at that time.

The people of Long Kingdom are the richest now!I don't know where it is better than the declining Italy.

With money, everything is easy to say.

You can buy new aid to increase your strength, and even if you fall to the second level, you can quickly get back up.

Moroni couldn't help shaking with excitement at his genius idea.

But at this time, the manager hesitated and said, "Uh...Actually..."

"Actually what? Say it!"

"Actually, this Pan Yi came to our team for an interview in June."

Moroni stood up from his seat with a "whoosh": "What? He came for an interview? Then why didn't we keep him?"

"You, me, and the head coach Di Francesco were all there at the time, just trying to recruit an assistant coach for the team." The manager swallowed and said, "But as soon as he came in, you thought he was young and a dragon." countryman, kicked him out."

Moroni: "..."

manager:"……"

Moroni: "Why didn't you stop me then!"

Manager: "... I said, at least let him come in and have a chat. But you didn't listen, and you said how could a young man in the Dragon Kingdom understand football, and there is no one in the entire Dragon Kingdom who understands football. You also said, Dragon Kingdom Chinese people only cook delicious food, but nothing else!"

Moroni: "..."

manager:"……"

Moroni scratched his head: "Why don't I remember such a thing! Um... Do you think this Pan Yi will remember this?"

The manager smiled bitterly: "What do you think..."

Moroni patted the manager on the shoulder: "It doesn't matter. I heard that there is an old saying in Longguo that a prime minister can drive a Titanic in his stomach."

"What does this mean?" The manager was confused.

"It means that the people of Longguo are very broad-minded and don't care about small things." Moroni said in a relaxed tone, "As long as we have enough sincerity, how could he refuse to be the head coach of a Serie A team? It's a big step forward for his career! You're right?"

"Maybe... right?" The manager could only nod.

"Of course, we can't be too hasty." Moroni said again, "We still need to conduct a field investigation. In this way, we will go to the scene to watch the game tonight to see if he really has the right to speak in the Milan coaching staff. You can also see how many fans are here for him."

"Okay, then I'll make arrangements." The manager was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Moroni.

"Help me get something to eat in the box. I'm not going to have dinner."

"Okay, what do you want?"

"Hmm... BJ Roast Duck!"
