The coaching career started as a college team coach

Wei Le looked at Jota deeply, but did not see even a little regret on his face.

"My father works in a crane company, and my mother works in an electronic component factory. These are physically demanding jobs, and they are likely to cause occupational diseases."

"My hometown is too small, and I must get out as soon as possible and let my family live a better life." Jota said firmly, "So, I only completed high school and graduated."

"When I was in youth training, I moved to another residence, which was close to my club but far from my home. At that time, I could only see my parents once a week."

"It was during the game on Saturday night. After the game, they would take me home and send me back to my residence on Sunday."

When Jota was a teenager, his friends often went out at night, went to parties, dinners, and played until late. However, the sensible Jota never accompanied them.

"I never asked for sneakers or other luxury goods. When it was my birthday, my mother asked me what I wanted, and I said a PS game console would be enough." Jota laughed, and his face was full of happiness when he thought of that time.

"My parents were far away from me, and I entered the U19 when I was 16. Many of the people who trained with me at that time were adults, and some were famous stars."

"My parents couldn't help me."

"So when there was a problem, I had to solve it myself."

Wei Le nodded in understanding, so that's how it was, "Then you must have had a hard time at that time."

"Yeah." Jota just nodded and said nothing else.

Wei Le looked up at the sky, the sunset had gradually disappeared at the end of the horizon, and at some point, the street lights had been turned on, illuminating the entire training base.

Jota is a microcosm of many young players. Their family conditions are not very good, and football is all they live for. And they are often gifted and enter the adult team early. They have to face problems independently, which makes them often face difficulties on their own even though they have friends to talk to after they grow up.

Many players in the Wolves team are still like this.

They haven't completely opened their hearts.

"Tomorrow I will tell my teammates that I have been bullied and I want to beat Simeone. Who will support me?" Jota joked.

"Then everyone will definitely respond in droves."

"When the morale is high, we will just push forward!" Jota regained his motivation and laughed.

Wei Le didn't ask Jota how he would deal with the matter next. At least in the training the next day, he saw that everyone seemed to be very involved. I think Jota's "proposal" has paid off.

In the 37th round of the league, Chelsea faced Everton.

Chelsea, with a 3-4-2-1 formation, seemed to have completely lost the motivation to continue to win. After a dull 0-0 in the first half, both sides scored a goal in the second half, and the final result was a 1-1 draw.

When the news reached the locker room, the eyes of the Wolves players were all hot.

They were about to go on the field. This game was their 37th league game. The opponent was Southampton, whom they defeated in the League Cup final last season.

"You know what this means, right?!" Wei Le said, "We have 71 points, Chelsea has 71 points even if they play one more game than us. If we can win this game, we will be three points ahead of them!"

"We are ahead of them in goal difference. In the last game, they can only win by a large score. It depends on us to get the fifth place back. And at that time, as long as we draw, we can secure a place in the Europa League next season."

"This game is of great significance!"

The players nodded seriously.

"Go, hold the fifth place in our hands!"

The players were ready to walk to the field. Wei Le fell behind, and Conte, Gianluca Conte, who was beside him, still did not leave, but seemed to be waiting for something.

"What's the matter?" Wei Le noticed it, so he asked.

But I found that Gianluca Conte's expression was not very good.

"My brother may be dismissed. When he goes to the next team, he should take me with him."

"Ah..."

Gianluca Conte came to Wolves to support. Antonio Conte took care of his brother's desire to coach alone, so he arranged for him to come to Wolves to learn. In addition, Wolves did lack coaches at the time, so Gianluca Conte was directly appointed as the technical coach.

Originally, Gianluca Conte really came to "learn", but he didn't expect to take on the big responsibility directly.

But the contract was only signed for one year at the time, and the salary level was also very low.

A year later, before the contract expired, Gianluca ConteConte did not mention the contract renewal, and also rejected the invitation of football director Matt Hobbs to negotiate the contract renewal. At that time, Wei Le had a rough idea.

It was just because of the recent battles with strong opponents that Gianluca Conte did not take the initiative to mention this matter, and Wei Le did not have time to take care of the coaching team at that time.

"Maybe I have to trouble you to find a new technical coach, sorry." Gianluca Conte smiled bitterly.

Wei Le was silent.

He wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

"Now I still want to be the head coach myself, but my brother is facing difficulties now, and he may not be able to take all the coaching staff members with him, so I have to go back then."

"I thought I could stay in Wolves for a longer time, but..."

"After all, I am still Antonio's younger brother." Gianluca Conte shook his head, "Anyway, the season of learning in Wolves is the most rewarding season since I became a coach."

Wei Le wanted to dissuade him, but seeing that Gianluca Conte had made the decision after careful consideration, he had no other choice. At this time, Gianluca Conte could not be persuaded to come back.

"Okay." Wei Le smiled with relief, "In that case, then let's take it as a farewell to you. You have to win the Europa League."

"When the time comes, you can explain to your brother. Just tell him that this year's Europa League is yours, and he doesn't!"

"Haha, okay!" Gianluca Conte said with a smile, "I hope that when I coach alone in the future, I can play a game with you as the head coach."

"Then I have to go all out."

Gianluca Conte's farewell gave Wei Le a different feeling. He felt that his two seasons at Wolves were about to end, but some of the most basic problems had not been solved.

Guardiola's coaching team at Manchester City even has dozens of people, and everyone has their own responsibilities. But the main responsible personnel of the Wolves coaching team are only Wei Le, assistant coach Celars, fitness coaches Mark Hux and Sergio Perez, set-piece coach Nicholas Jowell, and goalkeeper coach Pat Montaigne, who has been used since the Championship period, a total of 6 people.

It will soon become 5 again.

The number and quality of Wolves' coaching team are far lower than those of other teams of the same level, which also makes the general work pressure of Wolves coaches very high. The arrival of Gianluca Conte did fill the vacancy of the previous technical coach, but his departure after the expiration of his contract also made the position of technical coach vacant again.

Wei Le must start to form his own coaching team.

His own team will not be alone even if he leaves Wolves in the future.

Gianluca Conte also went to the stadium, and Wei Le sat down alone in the locker room and sighed.

There are too many things.
