Beast King Costa

Chapter 117 Family and Companionship

In addition to the two injured Constant Helia and Fabiano Rosato who need to go to the hospital and continue to observe and treat, Diego, Van Dinho and Noel, who were suspended for the next round, were directly sent to the hospital by Jesus Aldo. Ferreira took two days off, so that the main players who finished the last bullet in the last game can take the opportunity to take a good rest.

Ever since, Fan Dinho and Noel took Diego, left the outskirts together, and went to the city of Braga to play.

This is the first time Diego has played in the urban area since he came to Braga, the third largest city in Portugal.

The resident population of Braga is less than 7, so the streets here are deserted and open, making it quite pleasant to visit.

It’s not like the food province where Diego used to live. Everywhere he goes, there are crowds of people and heavy traffic. No matter how wide the road is, there will be traffic jams during rush hour.

As a half Braga native, Noel introduced the history of Braga and its famous attractions to Diego and Fandinho.

Among them, what impressed Diego most was the Braga Cathedral built in the [-]th century, which is a pilgrimage site for Portuguese Catholics.In the library in the cathedral, there are many collections of Catholicism for tourists to study.

Less than one kilometer near the Braga Cathedral is the giant stone sculpture of the Virgin Mary. Although it has been eroded by wind and rain for a long time, it still does not lose the majesty of the Virgin.

Standing at the foot of the stone sculpture of the Virgin Mary, Noel saluted devoutly and told Fandinho and Diego: "It is precisely because of this that I chose to settle in Braga."

Noel said with emotion: "I am a devout Catholic. The city of Braga makes me feel that I am bathed in the light of the Virgin. It is so comfortable to live here."

"Ah!" Fan Dinho said quite surprised by this: "Unexpectedly, you quietly bought real estate in Braga and settled down. It seems that you are planning to retire in Braga?"

"Haha! You, Fandinho, are more careful."

In this regard, Noel did not make any concealment.

Noel said quite candidly: "I am already 33 years old. As a full-back, although I don't have to confront big centers head-on. But when I compete with various wingers, my speed is obviously not as fast as before in the past two years, and I even turn around. The speed also started to slow down. So I thought that after playing next season and my contract expires, I would just announce my retirement."

"what……"

Diego was also quite puzzled and asked: "Brother Noel, if you don't plan to play in the Portuguese League or other low-level leagues, how many years will you earn pension money?"

"No."

Noel smiled and shook his head and said: "I have been playing professional football in Portugal for ten years. In these ten years, I have not given any company to my family. In addition to training every day, I follow the team here and there and compete everywhere. I’m over 30 now, I’m exhausted physically and mentally, and it’s time to settle down and spend time with my family.”

After all, Noel took out his wallet and showed his family photos to Fan Dinho and Diego. Noel married a Portuguese host and had three children. The oldest is five years old, and the youngest is now Still in infancy.

"In order to play football, I missed the moment when these three lovely sons were born. Therefore, I don't want to miss the time to grow up with them again."

In the photo, Noel's little son has a pacifier in his mouth and his big bright eyes are looking at his father.That longing look seemed to be telling Noel: Dad, I hope you can always be by my side.

"It's a pity that you have experienced many battles."

Having said that, Diego quite agrees with Noel's idea in his heart.

In Diego's opinion, nothing is more important than giving more companionship to his family.

Going to the Portuguese League or other low-level leagues for two or three years, although you can earn more pensions, it is also equivalent to making your family wait for you for another two or three years, and you may miss the best part of your child's growth. The most precious time.

When he thought that he was reborn in 2006 and came to this unknown world without even a family member, Diego's face suddenly darkened.

Although nominally and legally, Diego da Silva Costa's sister, brother, parents, and uncles are all his own "family," Diego doesn't think so in his heart.

Out of respect for the owner of this body, Diego really needs to treat them as family members.

But they are not my real family after all!

Dad, Mom.

In this unknown world, are you still waiting for me at home?

"Hey……"

Thinking of this, Diego no longer dared to let the emotion of longing spread any longer.

Otherwise, Diego is really worried that he will shed tears of longing because of sadness.

Fan Dinho did not notice the change in Diego's mood. He was talking with Noel about his ideal life.

I saw Fan Dinho said quite freely: "I'm not interested in getting married. You know, my two children are taken care of by servants now. And ah! I still want to try to win in Spain. Try it. I always feel that if I haven’t played in the top five leagues, something is missing in my career.”

Noel tentatively asked: "But, you will be 29 next year. Can you guarantee to play the main force in Spain for a few years? If you sit on the bench in La Liga, it will be boring."

"Ah... this is also a headache!"

Fan Dinho shrugged helplessly: "If you just play as a substitute and wait for the opportunity, you might as well stay in Braga... Oh! Coach Ferreira talked to me about renewing the contract in advance. What I mean is, after the team has secured a ticket to the Champions League next season, the official talks will begin.”

After all, Fan Dinho looked at Diego beside him: "Diego, what about you? You scored 4 goals in 5 games! And you basically helped the team score the key three points at the Stadium of Light alone. This report card , Mr. Mendes will definitely help you negotiate a new big contract with the club, right?"

"Uh, this is..."

At this moment, he has not yet determined his new club, and Diego dare not speak frankly about his future with his teammates.

But fortunately, just when Diego was embarrassed and didn't know how to respond to Van Dinho, an eye-catching golden old German Mercedes-Benz drove to the bottom of the steps.

"Beep……"

Following the sound of the horn, the three of them looked over together.

The driver in the car spoke to Diego: "Hello, Mr. Costa, Mr. Mendes asked me to pick you up and go to a dinner to discuss things."

"what!"

Diego hurriedly said to Fan Dinho and Noel: "Maybe Mr. Mendez just asked me to talk about this matter! Two, I will withdraw first, and you play slowly."

After all, Diego quickly slipped away.

I don't know, what new transfer intention offer Jorge Mendes will bring to himself later.

(PS: Well~ As a person with a strong family concept, Lao Mouzi really likes to write about things that are more tender and require everyone to think about.

I hope that all bosses can spend more time with their families after work and study, and talk more with their parents, even if they talk about household matters, it is a very warm thing. )
