Chapter 107 Mr. X Arrives!

"Mr. X is finally here!"

Fans who are familiar with Milan must be familiar with this sentence.

In 2009, after Milan city star Kaka joined Real Madrid, the aging Milan lineup quickly embarked on the road of decline.

Although the arrival of Ibrahimovic delayed the decline for two years, with the departure of a large number of players such as Inzaghi, Pirlo, Seedorf, Gattuso, Nesta, Van Bommel, Zambrotta, Ibrahimovic and his sister-in-law, Milan's decline has been inevitable.

In order to encourage the fans, every transfer window of the Milan club will mysteriously announce that "we are about to buy a big signing", and then let everyone guess who this "Mr. X" is...

According to incomplete statistics, the earliest Mr. X was the Brazilian teenager Ganso.He played for Santos together with Neymar, and is the most talented offensive combination in the Brazilian League. He is also known as the "new Zidane" in Brazil because of his elegant style of play.

The scandal between him and Milan has been rumored for at least three or four seasons. Unfortunately, Milan has been unwilling to pay, but has repeatedly teased Ganso, hoping that the player will lower the price.

The unbearable Santos finally sued Milan to FIFA in 2011, so scared that Milan quickly changed its target and continued to tease...

The story of "Mr. X" circulated for several seasons, and later became the Italian "Come on Wolf".

Just when everyone thought that half of the Rossoneri had fallen out of the ranks of the rich, Galliani suddenly made a big noise!

Not only did he bring back Kaka, the former Prince of San Siro, but he also recruited Su Changwei, a demon star who shined in La Liga last season!

The most coquettish thing is that there is no down payment at all for this transfer fee, and it can be paid in installments over three years, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the financial pressure on the club! -
On August 8, Su Changwei and Kaka finally arrived at the Milan Sports Center, also known as the Milanello Training Base.

"This is the largest and most professional football training base in Europe, er, at least it used to be."

Galliani personally led the two newcomers to tour the base.

In the face of two former Real Madrid players, Rabbit is really embarrassed to boast how advanced and luxurious his infrastructure is.

Compared with Milanello, which was built in the 60s, the infrastructure here is obviously not at the same level as the Real Madrid Stadium.

The full-size turf is only 6 pieces, and the training center, restaurant, player dormitory, and swimming pool are all a bit shabby...

The number of luxury cars in the parking lot is far less than that of Real Madrid!

The only thing better than Real Madrid is that the overall environment here is more comfortable. There are lakes and forests. If you add a few tents and set up a few barbecue grills, it will be a natural resort!
"But we have the most advanced medical institution in Europe, the Milan laboratory!"

Galliani finally found a place to blow:

"Real Madrid's cooperative medical institutions are not professional at all! They don't even have a surgical license!"

Both Kaka and Su Changwei couldn't help but nodded.

During this time in Real Madrid, they were all misdiagnosed by those quack doctors...

Especially their good friend, poor Di Maria, was injured four times in a row in three months!
In the end, he would rather believe in Chinese acupuncture and cupping than let Real Madrid's chief team doctor, Dr. Dias, treat him...

However, both Su Changwei and Kaka also know that today's Milan is not the same as it was back then, and the investment in medical research and development has also shrunk significantly. The once world-famous "Milan Laboratory" has long existed in name only...

A symbolic incident was that Pato suffered 15 consecutive injuries after joining the team, causing the "Milan Laboratory" to be questioned, especially the strong intervention of Pato's girlfriend and the club's eldest lady Barbara, which led to Meersman, one of the founders, being overwhelmed and could only leave amidst the controversy.

In the last season, the word-of-mouth of the Milan laboratory was completely ruined. The 300 players in the first team had more than 2 days of truce due to injuries, 85 days more than the No.6 Lazio!It is [-] times that of Juventus!
Su Changwei couldn't help but make a suggestion:
"Total, give the medical department a little more budget!"

He had a strong hunch that he might spend more time in the medical room and recovery room than on the training ground! -
"Riccardo, welcome back to Milan!"

"Su, welcome to join Milan!"

The Milan coach, Massimiliano Allegri, who had been waiting for a long time at the training ground, came out quickly.

The players who were warming up stopped their movements one after another and turned their attention to the sidelines.

Although Allegri wants to show an amiable smile, his natural bitter face still looks like a big "囧".

This is why he is dubbed "囧囧" and "Uncle囧" by Chinese netizens...

Kaka and Su Changwei shook hands and hugged him one by one.

Since Su Changwei didn't understand Italian, and Allegri's English and Spanish were only at the entry level, Kaka simply acted as an interpreter.

"These are two assistant coaches, Mr. Aldo Maldeira and Mr. Mauro Tassotti. They were coaches in the team when I first joined Milan ten years ago!"

The two assistant coaches are both over half a century old, and Su Changwei has a brief understanding of them. They are both famous players in Milan, who once dominated the greenery in the late 70s and early 80s.

Especially Tassotti, at his peak, formed a super defense line of Megatron Europe with Maldini, Baresi, and Costacurta, allowing countless offensive superstars to return without success in front of them!

"Boy, are you interested in continuing to play right back?"

The former No. [-] right back in Europe made a suggestion to Su Changwei:

"I can pass on all my previous skills and experience to you."

Su Changwei barely thought about it, so he shook his head and refused:

"I am in the position of the right midfielder, which is more helpful to the team!"

Tassotti shrugged and subconsciously glanced at the head coach:

"You probably don't know, but in our most commonly used lineup, there is no right midfielder position!"

Allegri frowned and didn't speak.

In these two seasons, the formation he is most accustomed to using is 4312!

Four defenders, three defensive midfielders, one organizational midfielder, and two forwards!

Galliani laughed:
"The formation and tactics can be adjusted. By the way, let's pick a number first! The fans can't wait to buy your new jersey!"

Tassotti handed over the roster in his hand:

"There are not too many numbers left for you..."

Kaka glanced at it, smiled and handed it to Su Changwei:

"I'd better choose number 22!"

Although Su Changwei took it, he didn't look down:
"I want the number 10 jersey, is there a problem?"

As soon as he said the words, he received a prompt message:
[Kevin Boateng, friendliness -10! 】

Boateng, who just got the No. 10 jersey two weeks ago, was stunned at one point!
He had just finished listening to Kaka's translation, and immediately wanted to give Su Changwei a flying kick and headshot him!
[You brat, who just joined the team, came to trouble the uncle? 】

[You see me as a soft persimmon at the mercy of others? 】

[Is Ibrahimovic crazy?He also has to obediently stand in front and pass the ball to me! 】

"Kevin!"

Someone held Boateng down and reminded him in a low voice:
"It's just a number, give it to him!"

"When the season starts, everyone will know who is Milan's most reliable big brother!"
