Chapter 18: Coaching at the midfield guru level

"Head, I found the midfield coach you asked me to find last time, and this player can be called a midfield master, an absolute midfield master, and can be said to be a legend in the Italian midfield. This person is Pirlo. You should know Pirlo, right?" Tony said with a smile.

"What? Pirlo? Did I hear you right? If my news is correct, isn't Pirlo in the Major Leagues now? How could he come back as a coach?" Jingyang felt incredible. If you want to say that the representatives of the Italian midfielder, Jingyang thinks that Pirlo and Gattuso, one is a master of rhythm attack, and the other is an absolute midfield interception barrier!
As an Italian fan in his previous life, of course he was no stranger to Pirlo. Andrea Pirlo was born on May 1979, 5 in Brescia, Italy.Pirlo's career began in his hometown team Brescia, after which he joined Serie A Inter Milan. In 19, Pirlo moved from Inter Milan to AC Milan.

Pirlo played for AC Milan for 10 seasons and won two Serie A titles, one Coppa Italia title, one Italian Super Cup title, two UEFA Champions League titles, two European Super Cup titles and one World Club Championship for the team.Andrea Pirlo was also a member of the 2006 World Cup champion team and also won two UEFA Champions League (2003, 2007) championships.Pirlo joined Juventus from AC Milan in 2011, and in the next four seasons helped the team win four consecutive league championships and also helped the team reach the Champions League final.

In July 2015, Pirlo joined the New York City team. On November 7, 2017, Pirlo announced his official retirement on social media.

"Head, it's like this. Andrea is not happy in the United States, and his and his wife's parents are both old, but the old people don't want to leave Italy, so he wants to go back to Italy to work. Just yesterday when I was chatting with him, I mentioned our Parma, and Del Piero and him are also friends for many years. The two of us talked to him carefully about the current situation of our Parma and our ambitions. In the end, he agreed to join our Parma. But he hopes to join us as a player-coach. You know that the salary can be higher if you do this." Tony said.

"Money is not a problem, but although we don't need to register in the Italian D league, the transfer window ended on August 8st. Even if I want to buy, I can't buy it as a player." Jing Jing.

"Boss, you forgot that we can introduce free agents, and there is a termination clause in his contract, but it costs 100 million US dollars. If you want to introduce him, you can let him terminate the contract first and then bring in." Tony said with a smile.

"Haha, if he is willing to join, then I will pay the money. You should go and talk to Crespo. You can talk about the contract, and I will pay the termination fee!" Jingyang was very happy. First of all, the money is not a problem.

The second point: Jingyang's operating strategy is to train young players. If there is Pirlo's guidance, Diacarte, Melagoni and Mianda will all make considerable progress. This is not wrong.

On October 10, Jingyang, Piero, Tony, and Crespo appeared at Palma Airport. The plane from New York, USA to Palma landed at 1 am.

"Mr. Andrea Pirlo, I welcome you as the chairman of the Palma Club. The hotel has already arranged for you. Let's go there now." Jingyang said with a smile.

"Haha, I've heard Crespo, Piero and Tony mention you more than once, let's go now." After speaking, the group of people put their luggage in the hotel arranged by Jingyang.

"Hello, Mr. Pirlo, I'm Kaitlin, a reporter from Milan Weekly. I want to ask you a question. Why did you give up the club in the United States and join Parma freely?"

"First of all, I terminated the contract peacefully with New York City. The reason why I chose to terminate the contract is because my wife and I's parents are old and they don't want to leave Italy. A player who has seen big scenes.

After the press conference, the news received a lot of attention and reprinted immediately, and Parma's name once again appeared in the eyes of fans all over the world.Jingyang happily returned to the club.
