Legendary Godfather

But to be honest, Tong Yi doesn't just want to take away Akanji from the Crystal Palace!

If Tong Yi wants to build a new AC Milan and complete the upgrade, he will definitely need to bring in some of his direct descendants from the Crystal Palace.

Akanji is just one of them.

Of course, to be honest, those who have been famous for a long time and are extremely expensive will not be considered by Tong Yi.

For example, Crystal Palace currently has Ronaldo, Van Dijk, Rudiger, Casemiro and Carvajal.

Why?

I can’t afford it!

If we really want to poach these guys, hundreds of millions of transfer fees won't be enough to stop them!

So it is not realistic!

Most of the players Tong Yi wants to take away are young players, and they are young players who can be used now, such as Joan Armene and Haaland, who played a lot of games last season.

Moreover, Joan Armene and Haaland should be the two people Tong Yi must win.

These two people are now very strong and have grown very rapidly in the past few years. They played in the first team of Crystal Palace last season. Both of them were considered substitute players. Even Joan Armene played more games than Haaland. Joan Armene is very important in Tong Yi's mind. When he comes to Milan in the new season, he will be the absolute main defensive midfielder.

Although this little guy Haaland didn't play particularly many games last season, he scored 11 Premier League goals, 7 FA Cup goals, and 2 League Cup goals in a limited time. With 2 goals in the Champions League and 2 goals in the Champions League, he scored a total of 22 goals this season and also provided 2 assists.

This is already very amazing for a young man who was born in 2000 and is now 18 years old.

After he comes to Milan, he should be Milan's starting center in the new season.

In the new season, Tong Yi is very likely to set off a youth storm in the city of Milan!

Haaland has played quite a few games in the past few years. Before last season, he was frequently rented out. He played in the Bundesliga and the English Premier League. Although he is only 18 years old now, he has given people It feels like he is very mature in playing football, and he has a calmness that does not match his age.

Therefore, this time Ignacio will go to England to take away these three.

These three players should not be particularly important to Crystal Palace, and Crystal Palace still needs to give them and Tong Yi some face, right?

Although Tong Yi has now left the Crystal Palace, in a sense, the Crystal Palace still belongs to Tong Yi.

To be honest, this really means that the left hand is the right hand.

After receiving Tong Yi's instructions, Ignacio immediately flew back to England.

Yes, after young Ignacio served as a coach for the Crystal Palace youth team for one season, he followed Tong Yi to Milan City and became a member of Tong Yi's coaching staff.

Ignacio is determined to turn

A professional coach.

Now he is learning more with Tong Yi. One day in the future, he will also go out to coach alone. Maybe this can be regarded as a continuation of his own football career!

Now Ignacio is full of enthusiasm for his work, and every time is a new experience.

This is also the first time in his life to introduce players, and he also attaches great importance to it.

After flying back to England, Ignacio didn't even go to see his confidante Lilian and Adriana, but went directly to the Watto Yida Football Training Base.

At this time, all the major football clubs were on holiday, and there were no people in this base.

However, when he arrived at the base, Crystal Palace's current acting head coach, Patrick McCarthy, was already waiting at the door!

When he saw Ignacio, McCarthy stepped forward and gave Ignacio a big hug!

To be honest, every time he saw Ignacio, McCarthy felt sad, and at the same time he had a complicated feeling of sympathy for his fate.

Because both of them said goodbye to their playing careers due to serious injuries.

McCarthy felt that Ignacio was even more pity.

With Ignacio's talent, he could have become the best top center in the world today. He was originally a super center who should have kept Harry Kane on the bench for the England national team. Now he retired early and became a coach.

God, what a waste of nature!

And he himself is just one of the ordinary professional players. Even if he is healthy and not injured, he will not be able to play as the main player in Crystal Palace, and he is not even the first choice as a substitute. Therefore, he felt even more sorry for Ignacio!

The more important thing is that Ignacio is too young!

What a pity, what a pity!

But fortunately, Ignacio, who is now recovering, has no problem walking normally, but he just can't do some strenuous exercise. It doesn't affect normal life, so it's good.

Ignacio laughed and showed his sunshine!

He said, "Although we haven't seen each other for a while, you don't need to be so enthusiastic, right?"

McCarthy snorted and said, "Do you think I want to see you? Don't think I don't know what you are here for today?"

With that said, McCarthy introduced Ignacio into the base.

After entering the base, Ignacio felt as if he was revisiting his old place.

To be honest, it didn't take long for him to leave the Crystal Palace and this football base, but as soon as he walked in here, all the memories surged up in an instant, as if

These things all happened a long time ago.

Maybe this is how times have changed!

The surrounding scenery, training turf, etc. are all very familiar, but they feel very far away.

Ignacio recalled all the things he had done here, and then recalled the Beckenham training base before the renovation, all the complicated emotions surged up, making his chest feel uncomfortable, and he even felt like he could not breathe. It hit his throat and made him very uncomfortable!

Because all Ignacio looked at was his high-spirited appearance when he was seventeen or eighteen years old!

These things seem to be very close to me, but also very far away from me.

Unknowingly, Ignacio stopped and stared blankly at the familiar patches of turf, as if he had returned to the past when he once rode here.

McCarthy shook his head and sighed when he saw this, but did not bother Ignacio!

To be honest, there are still many people who feel very sorry for Ignacio's injury and retirement. This guy has a chance to become the most powerful center in the world. If he hadn't been injured, what kind of picture would that be?

What a pity, what a pity!

"Hey, that guy No. 5 on the court played well!" Suddenly, Ignacio's voice rang out, waking McCarthy up.

McCarthy immediately looked up and looked at a group of young men playing a training match. He took a casual look and knew who Ignacio was talking about! Because McCarthy is very familiar with these guys in the Crystal Palace youth team, because there are many talented young people discovered by Tong Yi at that time. These are the future leaders of the Crystal Palace Football Club. He naturally attaches great importance to them, and usually does not miss them. Come and pay attention, he can really take care of these guys.

He also stared closely at the No. 5 boy and said, "Why are you planning to take him away this time?"

Ignacio did not answer the question directly, but he stared at the little guy closely and said firmly, "The boss likes him very much, you know!"

Hearing this, McCarthy couldn't help but smile bitterly - it was indeed the case!

However, he immediately said, "But this little guy is only 15 years old now. Isn't it a little early?"

Ignacio immediately said, "Aren't you 16 next year? You can play in the first team!"

McCarthy shook his head slightly, feeling that Ignacio was a little too pushy.

Before McCarthy could speak, Ignacio continued, "The boss thinks his talent is no worse than mine and is very optimistic about him."

McCarthy couldn't help but turn his head to look at the young man No. 5 in the training ground, and he couldn't help but nodded subconsciously. This little guy is really talented, and he is very mature and calm when playing football at a young age.

He doesn't look like a 15-year-old boy. At this stage, he is playing cross-level U18U19 games and has performed very well and very calmly.

This youthful and mature temperament is really a standard trait of many talented new stars!

It is these qualities that make them full of confidence in the future of these little guys.

McCarthy also feels that letting this little guy follow the boss is the best choice, which will be beneficial to his growth.

However, McCarthy turned to look at Ignacio and said, "He is dug by the boss. The boss wants to take him away. I have no objection. But you have to find a way to convince his family. His family may not let this child be so young." You just left your hometown to play football!"

Ignacio nodded slightly, this was indeed a problem.

However, he immediately said, "You don't have to worry about this. I believe the boss's name is enough to make many parents give up their so-called worries! Moreover, I think this boy is very happy to follow the boss!"

In response, McCarthy could only smile bitterly!

It seems that I really have no chance of keeping this little guy!

Therefore, McCarthy couldn't help but glared at Ignacio.

Then he asked, "You came back today just to take him away, right?"

Ignacio immediately shook his head and said, "Of course not, he was just passing by. I came back this time to bring back some main players to Milan, not these future players!"

hiss! McCarthy turned serious instantly.

Although he respects Tong Yi very much, although the relationship between Tong Yi and Crystal Palace is very unusual. But he still wasn't happy to watch Tong Yi hollow out their Crystal Palace. At this time, he felt that Ignacio was a bit annoying.

McCarthy stared at Ignacio warily and said, "You're not here to take away Virgil and Tintin, are you? They are the cornerstone of our Crystal Palace, and they cannot be poached!"

McCarthy is really afraid that Tong Yi will hollow out the Crystal Palace and reincarnate the Crystal Palace in the dirt of Milan!

Crystal Palace cannot fail!

Therefore, the way he stared at Ignacio was wrong at this time.

Ignacio chuckled and said, "Don't be so nervous. Even if we want to take away Virgil and the others, we at Milan can't afford that much money! Each of these is extremely expensive, and one player costs hundreds of millions. If we take Virgil away, we can't afford it." It would cost 300-400 million pounds to take two or three trips. Do you really think the boss has a money printing machine at home?"

Hearing Ignacio say this, McCarthy was relieved!

There is indeed nothing wrong with this. Tong Yi just spent more than 300 million euros to acquire the Milan team. Where can he still have so much cash to dig out these stars worth hundreds of millions? It seems that he really thinks too much. As long as the cornerstone of Crystal Palace is not moved, other players will be easy to talk about!
