Starting with Real Madrid kicking the midfielder

Chapter 1 Real Madrid's youth training focused on renting out

2010 7 Month 30 Day.

After another day of pre-season training, Mourinho sat in his office at the Valdebebas training base, struggling with a player information sheet.

".The sense of position is very good. He has a natural talent for defensive position selection. He has a good sense of supplementary defense, but he is not aggressive in attacking. He likes to oppress the ball space of offensive players and has strong confrontation ability."

"Possess stable ball protection and ball delivery ability, but lack of creativity, lack of willingness to go forward, and insufficient dribbling ability"

"He is a defensive midfielder worth cultivating. He has excellent position selection, active defense, and excellent physical fitness, but his organizational skills are weak, his willingness to attack is not strong, and his skills are solid. It is worth mentioning that his header ability is outstanding. Maybe in the future Can play a good role in set-piece tactics.”

After reading the summary report handed in by his assistant again, Mourinho's frown eased little by little.

After rubbing his temples, he seemed to have made the final decision, and put down the player list with some pity.

Half an hour later, a young player with the face of an East Asian player walked into Mourinho's office after knocking on the door for permission.

"I heard from Mr. Perez that you were looking for me, and your body smelled a little sweaty, so I went to wash it off first. I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

After the young Dongfang player came in, he explained a little apologetically.

His damp skin hadn't been completely dried after rinsing, and with his handsome and sunny appearance, he looked surprisingly refreshed at the moment.

Mourinho looked at the polite but cheerful young player in front of him who was obviously not too restrained, smiled and waved his hand indifferently, motioning him to sit down first.

Obviously in the previous pre-season training, Mourinho had a pretty good impression of this young player.

"I talked about it once before, Li, I won't talk nonsense. I called you here today to tell you about the arrangements for you this season."

As Mourinho spoke, he tapped his fingers on the report sheet at hand.

At the moment, the young Oriental player sitting opposite Mourinho also sat up a little bit, looking like he was listening carefully.

"We decided to rent you out. As you know, there are enough players in the midfield in the first team. In order to be responsible for your growth, we think it is better to let you out and let you play in other teams. It’s better to play more games.”

Before Mourinho finished speaking, the young player sitting opposite him looked relieved and happy, and asked Mourinho in a hurry.

"Can I choose my preferred team, Boss?"

Mourinho waved a team list in his hand with a smile of "I knew you would ask that".

"Several La Liga and La Liga teams are interested. Of course, Real Betis is on the list."

The young Eastern player was completely relieved now, and thanked Mourinho again and again.

This young Oriental player is named Li Ang.

Don't get me wrong, he is not French-Chinese, and he doesn't have a foreign name like Leon. He is a serious Chinese player.

Thanks to his relatives in Madrid, he came to Spain when he was 13 years old, and then successfully passed the selection and entered Getafe's youth training camp, embarking on the road of professional youth training.

At the age of 14, because of his outstanding performance in the youth team competition, he successfully switched to La Fabrica, the youth training camp of Real Madrid, a big football giant in the same city.

He was promoted to Real Madrid's second team Castilla just after he was born. After playing half a season in the second division B, he was loaned out by Real Betis, who lacked a midfielder, and played in the second division for half a season.

At the age of 19, he helped Real Betis through to La Liga for the last time as the No.3 of the second division before the reform of the upgrade system of the second division!
At this age, he has achieved such achievements.

Li Ang can't be said to be a peerless super genius, but he is completely worthy of his status as an excellent youth player in the Real Madrid youth academy.

However, he grew up in La Fabrica since he was a child, and he is 100% a youth trainee who is [-]% Real Madrid's "own man", but he is not like other Castilla players.

Others sharpened their heads and wanted to stay in Real Madrid, dreaming of playing for the first team of Real Madrid, but Li Ang wanted to go out with all his heart.

Even if he was named by the newly appointed Real Madrid coach Mourinho this summer, he has already started pre-season training with the first-team players.

He still hasn't changed his mind.

Whether it is Real Madrid selling him or renting him out, he can accept it.

His only request is to let him go to a team that can play steadily.

And now Real Betis, who has been promoted to La Liga, is naturally his best place.

There are coaches who appreciate him, teammates who have been familiar with him for half a year, and fans who like him.

Real Betis is simply a perfect place for him to "level up".

Mourinho didn't know what to say about Li Ang.

He has coached for so many years, and it is really rare to see a precocious young player like Li Ang.

Precocious enough to be unmoved by the temptation of Real Madrid's first team.

Insisting on the club to release him to play games, Li Ang can be regarded as the most "alternative" Real Madrid youth training in Castilla.

When Mourinho first arrived at Real Madrid, he also paid attention to Li Ang.

He likes this kind of young player who is down-to-earth and looks hardworking and smart.

Maybe Li Ang's talent is a bit worse after all, but for Mourinho, the slightly weaker offensive attribute is not a big problem.

Not to mention that Li Ang's talent on the defensive end really satisfies him.

If it weren't for the fact that there are indeed too many midfielders in the first team, Mourinho really doesn't mind giving Li Ang a chance to get some training opportunities in the Real Madrid first team in the new season.

That's what he was struggling with before.

He is optimistic about Li Ang's talent, but now Real Madrid does not need talent.

Real Madrid, which has been suppressed by Barcelona for a long time, needs immediate combat power and the joining of superstars one after another.

So instead of letting Li Angku sit on the bench to waste this precious ball-up period.

It's better to let him out and hope that he will seize the opportunity to grow up quickly.

In this case, maybe one or two years later, Mourinho will still have the opportunity to cooperate with an excellent defensive midfielder from Castilla.

"Come on, don't let go of your hard work in Valdebebas, I look forward to seeing a better Li Ang in the near future, you are a great guy, keep your focus!"

Mourinho stood up and gave Li Ang a routine encouragement when he shook hands with Li Ang.

Li Ang nodded with a smile, thanked him again and walked out of Mourinho's office with brisk steps.

It was a pre-season conversation between a manager and a player that couldn't have been simpler.

If there is no accident, after Real Madrid and Real Betis negotiated, Li Ang will soon be able to simply pack his luggage and return to Seville, where he stayed for half a year.

This summer's short training sessions with Real Madrid's first-team players looked like a dream come true.

In addition to broadening his horizons, Li Ang finally got the chance to draw the "Golden Star Talent Fragment Card" that he had been waiting for for six years.

Three years and three years, he has played in the defensive midfielder position for six years!
It's not that he was born with this talent, or that he likes to play a defensive midfielder, but that he has no choice.

After walking out of Valdebebas, Li Ang called up the "Road to the King" panel in his mind on the way home.

In the "main card slot" on the far left of this simple system panel, there is a star talent card shining with golden light.

"08-09 Season Limited Edition Makelele"!
　The new book is released, I hope that everyone will collect and recommend it, let's rush in May!
