[Football] Goalkeeper Superstar

Chapter 6 Chance and Choice

Kevin at this moment: $_$!

Kevin looked at the man in front of him, the light in his eyes really startled Claudio Ranieri, and he couldn't help but reminded him of the Akita dog in his family. His dark eyes saw the dog This is the look in his eyes when he was a bone.Kevin's head hadn't been overwhelmed with excitement yet, he looked at his opportunity, but he wasn't too excited.After the initial excitement, he calmed down.

"This is not the place to talk, Mister Ranieri, Kevin...."

"Sanders." Kevin said his last name.

Togo stood aside, smiled and said to the senior and junior: "Okay, Mr. Sanders, we can go to the coffee shop across the street and talk."

Kevin thought for a while and said, "I'm going to talk to the boss, please take a leave of absence, please wait for me for a while."

Ranieri and Togo nodded at the same time, Kevin turned and went into the sporting goods store behind him, and it took a long time to come out.After coming out, Kevin no longer had the straightforward eyes just now, and has returned to his calm and calm appearance. '

After all, Ranieri is an old Jianghu. After seeing that Kevin had calmed down, he looked at his old friend Togo calmly.Togo showed a smile of praise.

The coffee shop that Togo took them to was a time-honored brand in the city, but it was just after noon, and there were not many people in the coffee shop.Seeing the familiar Togo, the black brother just opened his big mouth, revealing a row of white teeth.

Ranieri was still wondering, and after a while, the black brother brought three cups of coffee, a jar of sugar, and a jar of cream to the kitchen.There were also three chocolate cakes on the plate.

As soon as Kevin saw the chocolate cake, his eyes started to glow again... From this point of view, it seems that Kevin should like English afternoon tea, Ranieri thought happily.

After Kevin put two packets of sugar and added some cream, Ranieri drank some of his customary Italian bitter coffee, then wiped his mouth with a tissue: "Can we start?"

Kevin nodded and put down his dessert fork.

Togo looked at Kevin and said, "Actually, last time I thought you did a very good job and are very talented, so I think you can consider whether you want to become a professional player?"

Kevin was taken aback, thinking that when he asked for leave with the boss Kent in the sporting goods store, he had already told old Kent that two football coaches were waiting for him at the door of the store.But what Kent said to him later completely calmed Kevin down.

"Leicester City?" Old Kent shook his head and said, "They are in the Premier League. In fact, their results are not very good. They are considered a small team."

Kevin didn't know anything about it, so he just listened quietly.

"You know, this season, this team almost didn't even manage to avoid relegation. The last few months were a flashback, and there was a big escape from relegation. Then something happened. I heard that their players still …Well, for misbehavior, he was fired with the coach.”

Old Kent originally wanted to tell Kevin what was said in the newspaper, but he felt that saying these things really spoiled the good baby in front of him, so he just used indecent words to cover it up.Hearing that, the corner of Kevin's mouth raised a smile.

Old Kent shook his head: "The new coach is also a repairman. The whole team is not favored." When Old Kent said these words, he watched Kevin's face carefully. He didn't want to Hit this young boy's immature heart.

"I think you should think about it more. If you really have the coach of a professional team looking at you, it is enough to prove that you are a talented player. If you really want to become a professional player, you can also go Choose another good team."

Kevin thought for a while and said, "But, I don't really want to wait."

Old Kent sighed, and smiled dotingly at Kevin: "Why, do you really think football is interesting?"

Kevin thought for a while, then nodded solemnly.

Old Kent reached out and patted Kevin on the shoulder and said, "Okay, go and see what they want to do, and tell me when you come back, I'll help you make up your mind."

Kevin's thoughts came back from the memory, looking at the two people who were still waiting for his answer, he put down the coffee cup in his hand. "Before I did this," Kevin said a little embarrassedly, "I never thought about being a professional player."

Both Togo and Ranieri were stunned.

"Well..." Togo was a little surprised: "Haven't thought about it at all?"

"No." Kevin said seriously, "I've only touched football twice in my life."

Togo and Ranieri looked at each other.

"Then, do you know Leicester City?" Ranieri felt that it was best to slow down his pace. Although this boy didn't talk much, he was still a 16-year-old boy after all. "What about the Premier League?"

Kevin smiled, and Ranieri, who has exquisite and beautiful facial features, felt that this kid might be more suitable for the big screen.

"I've only played football twice, once when I played on top of the pot, and once when I was hanged by a professional player." Although the old Kent just introduced him, he also knows that the current situation of the team is really not good. Okay, but...Kevin thinks it's better to say that he doesn't know if he doesn't know anything.

Ranieri smiled. He could see that Kevin was different from his peers: he had no unrealistic ideas, nor was he impetuous as a teenager.On the contrary, he has the calmness of an adult man - this kid is a natural goalkeeper!

Ranieri recalculated his thoughts and ideas in his heart, smiled and drank the bitter coffee in front of him.You know, ordinary people of the same age are not able to calm down so quickly. Ranieri has definitely seen a lot of professional players. He knows a 16-year-old boy. If he knows that a professional club signs him, he can be happy. Dancing with passers-by.

This kind of person is passionate and explosive, and is more suitable as a striker.After all, the opportunity to shoot is such a rush. Use opportunities and skills to pave the way, step on it, run over, and then score in front of the goal!Also needs the favor of the goddess of luck.

But if he is a goalkeeper with such a personality, then the defense is really over.

What a goalkeeper needs is absolute calm and a high degree of concentration. If a goalkeeper can't do these two things, his career will not be very brilliant.

In terms of innate personality, Kevin already has two things that a goalkeeper must have, calmness and self-control.

Listening to Kevin's words, Togo couldn't help laughing.

"If you say that the person who beat you is Dijia, I think it is a miracle that you can guarantee that he only scored one goal in a game."

Ranieri looked at Kevin with a smile, and took a bite of the cake on his own plate. The taste of delicious chocolate made the Italian narrow his happy eyes. "Yes, you have to know that Tiga is a kid from the youth academy. He has been trained in a football environment for a long time, and you are just a beginner."

"I don't think it's a miracle." Kevin recalled the horror game that was shrouded in Tiga. "To be honest, I was so tired that I was dying from that game."

Ranieri laughed loudly: "I know Togo's defense line. He doesn't pay attention to it at all. He only likes to attack."

Kevin didn't make a sound, just looked at Togo a little embarrassed, and then silently stuffed himself a big mouthful of chocolate cake.

"So, does Mr. Ranieri want me to be a professional player?" Kevin saw that the cake was about to be eaten, so he just talked straight to the point.

"Ahem," Ranieri choked a little while eating the chocolate cake. He didn't expect this kid to be so decisive in doing things. He was still chatting and laughing in the last step, but he got to the point in the next step.

Ranieri cleared his throat and said solemnly: "We want to recruit you to the Leicester City Club, but we will start as a substitute goalkeeper."

"Substitute goalkeeper?" Kevin looked at Togo.

Togo explained: "The substitute door is..."

"I know." Kevin said seriously: "I know the significance of being a substitute goalkeeper. I just want to say, can you wait for me for a while before I give you an answer?"

Ranieri nodded: "Of course, you can go home and discuss it with your parents."

Kevin didn't say anything, just nodded politely: "I will check the information of the Premier League and Leicester City, thank you, Mr. Ranieri." "

"This is my phone." Ranieri took out his phone, but looking at Kevin, he took out a napkin on the table and wrote down his landline number: "Don't you have a cell phone?"

"No." Kevin replied naturally.

Ranieri smiled: "The family is very strict." After speaking, he also imitated Kevin and wrote down his phone number on the napkin. "Hope you bring me good news."

Kevin took the napkin, nodded to the two elders with a smile, and left the cafe.

"Well..." Togo leaned back on the chair, rubbing his chin. "See what's coming?"

"Self-disciplined, calm, speak with your own steps, and will lead people away." Ranieri smiled, and took a bite of chocolate cake: "Very calm, this kid is not bad."

"I'm not good at coaching, but I still have a good vision." Togo said proudly.

Ranieri also smiled: "You know, we usually sign small players, and I don't need to do it myself. If it weren't for the summer break, I wouldn't come back."

Togo raised the corners of his mouth playfully, but continued to listen without answering.

"This kid has a good personality and is suitable to be a goalkeeper. And I also saw the video you sent me on the plane. He has very sharp dynamic eyesight and is naturally accurate in prediction. Dijia has 20 shots and 20 goals. He saw through them all. Of course, the first one doesn’t count.”

Togo continued to smile proudly.

"The only goal he conceded was that he already knew that Tiga would bombard the goal heavily, and he just dodged it by himself." Speaking of which, the two football coaches smiled maliciously. "He needs systematic training, starting from the most basic... To be honest, the novice players I usually take over, as soon as they hear that they have been signed, they think that they are a genius." Ranieri took out A cigarette, lit with a smile: "But this child is different."

"You mean he doesn't have much confidence in himself?" Togo asked suspiciously.

"No." Ranieri shook his head: "It's not that he lacks self-confidence, but he is very self-aware." Ranieri took a deep breath: "Never overestimate myself, and never underestimate myself." Finally looked at Kevin Sitting there just now, Ranieri said: "He is a fine jade in the rough. I will polish him well, and he will stand very tall."

"That's why you deliberately turned the official goalkeeper's contract into a substitute?" Togo was already excited.

"I'm not belittling him, but I want to protect him." Ranieri said confidently: "I will put him on the field after polishing him well, and then blind the eyes of those people."
