shadow striker

In the endless darkness, Yue Yihuang opened his eyes, holding the phone tightly with his left hand, his thumb hovering over the recording button, as if he wanted to say something to that person.He turned around and looked at the phone screen, which showed that the last voice message Igles had sent him was more than a month ago.

He thought for a long time, but in the end he didn't know what to say to the other party.

It seems that when two people are close and talk every day, you can always find more things to say to each other.You might even have a long discussion with a weirdo you met on the road today.But what about friends who haven't been in touch for a long time?What else can you say to him except that I am fine?

Perhaps, Yue Yihuang and Igles were like that at this time.The bond between the two of them was almost nothing but football.But how can the current Yue Yihuang talk about himself with Igles?

It's like...you can never show off to a cryptographer that you know the ninety-nine multiplication tables by heart.

This is the huge gap between Yue Yihuang and Igles.

Rebuild...Team of Gods?

Yue Yihuang suddenly remembered what De Luo said, the reason why he came to the Turin team, and suddenly felt a surge of emotion for no reason.

If that would be true.Maybe, in his lifetime, there will be a chance to meet Igles on the court, right?As an opponent.

That...seems good too.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Yue Yihuang's face.Then he turned off his phone and buried himself in a deep sleep.Waiting for the next morning to come.He seems... It seems that he can't wait, he can't wait to start the next day's training, so that he can train better every day than the previous day...

2023 winter transfer season.Torino, a participating team in the Italian second division, bought a large number of promising young players from clubs around the world with extremely generous shots.

Most of them are Italian.Of course, there are also two players from Argentina and France.

The Argentine's name was Nilva. Although he was young, he had a serious temper.It is said that his hobbies and expertise are martial arts. It is said that he will take revenge on the court, and he does not hide his true temperament at all, which has caused a lot of trouble for himself and the club.However, Delo, who has carefully studied his game video, said that he will become the best midfielder in the world.

The Frenchman Cassell is a winger whose strength has jumped very quickly last season. He has a strong ability to grab points in the penalty area and advance forward, and he has an excellent sense of smell in front of the goal.It was only because of the poor management of the club last season that it was picked up by the Turin team and a young winger who was rising rapidly was taken in.

It was precisely because of Deloitte's big moves in this winter's transfer season that when the fans who were familiar with the Turin team returned to the stadium to watch the game again, the original first-team members of the Turin team had been replaced. Almost half of them were replaced.Such a change is unexpected.Although the Turin team changed the owner of the club and ushered in a new head coach at the end of last season, it was only a quarter, and the team had such a big change. People are too surprised.

However, it was such a huge change that allowed the Turin team to win a good start in the first game after the transfer season.After that, they continued their unbeaten record in the Italian Serie B.

Among them, the combination of No. 7 Cassel and No. 11 Yue Yihuang surprised all the fans who love the Turin team. Time and time again, he intercepted the opposing team's attack into their penalty area, and passed the ball to the teammate in front with a big long pass.

That's it... The Torino team has passed all the way, and it seems that they are going to return to Serie A again.However, after three years, this time they returned as the champions of the second division.

It seems that the events of the second division should not affect the teams of the first division, let alone attract the attention of players from the top European teams.However, Francisco, whose contract with Chelsea will expire this summer, couldn't help but pay attention to every game of the Turin team after that conversation.Even more irresistible... he made his eyes follow the Asian player.

Yes, almost after that night, he tracked down the Asian player who attracted him so much.

When he learned that the player was actually a Chinese, his horror and disbelief can almost be imagined.Because Yue Yihuang is really unknown, there is no information about him on the Internet, except for a name, there is almost nothing.So Francisco had to pay attention to the Turin game.However, when he saw that elegant and extremely dangerous figure from the computer in the middle of the night, he couldn't restrain his amazement.

Yue Yihuang has extraordinary skills with his feet, and his ability to dribble is not like an unknown player who has only played in the second division.What is even more commendable is that he has the running speed of European players.When the camera zoomed in so that Francisco could see the eyes and expression of Yue Yihuang dribbling the ball, he almost felt... the feeling that his whole body was starting to feel dry and hot came back.

It was such a weird feeling.Is it too long to vent?No... obviously yesterday when I was with my current rumored girlfriend, that hot underwear model, I still felt normal.But almost as soon as he saw that expression, or even that look, he would have the urge to do something to him?

"Beautiful! No. 11 of the Turin team scored again! This is really the most outstanding Asian player in the Italian football league over the years! His grabbing points and sense of smell in front of the goal are amazing! This I watched it, Yue’s second game! He is an amazing player, he always gives me an illusion, he knows where the ball will be kicked in the next second, and then grabs that position in advance! Use his excellent footwork to give the opposing goalkeeper a fatal kick!"

Such a commentary came out in the video, which was a local TV commentary in Italian.Although Francisco is playing in the Premier League, he is a native of Turin. Of course he can understand the commentator's exclamation.In fact, when he saw the game played by Yue Yihuang, he was also surprised in his heart.He even totally agreed with what the narrator said.

"Torino's number 11 looks very young. When I first met him, I thought he was 17 years old or even younger. But then I got the information that he had just moved from Brescia to Torino. The boy is 19 years old. In fact, he was not as eye-catching at the Brescia club as he is now. He almost never played as a starter, always played occasionally as a substitute.

It is precisely because of this that the transfer fee for his transfer to Turin was only 100 million euros!It's unbelievable that he's doing so well when he gets to Torino.He has won the full trust of coach Deloitte!oh!Really great, I think he can be the focus of this game outside of Kassel. "

100 million euros?This is really a bargain that is too cost-effective.

After hearing that sentence from the narrator, Francisco actually had such an idea.He even thought about... how much Chelsea could spend to buy him from Turin if he recommended this small forward who played in the Italian second division to his coach.

But such an idea just flashed by and was denied by Francisco himself.

He has played with the team where Delo was the head coach, and he understands how Delo is a coach who is obsessed with winning and becoming a champion.He hardly thinks about anything other than winning.Therefore, he would never take Yue Yihuang's hand.Especially with Torino's current boss fully behind him.

The final score of that match was...Torino v Verona, 4:1

After three years, the Turin team once again returned to the Italian Serie A...

However, bringing the Turin team to the peak and bringing the Turin God team back to the eyes of the world again, this is only the first step they have taken.

"We all know what a glorious past the Torino team has! However, such a team has only played in the second division for the past three years. After a big change in the winter transfer season, Torino The team has undergone a thorough cleaning from the owner to the head coach and even the players. With the arrival of Mr. Delo, who previously coached in the Premier League, to the Turin team, fans can see that they have given us a warm welcome after the winter break. Showed their extraordinary strength! Now, let us congratulate Torino on their return to Serie A as champions of the second division after three years!"

In a high-end villa in London, England, the TV in the living room was tuned to an Italian sports TV station.The owner of this villa looked at the screen switched to in this sports channel with great interest.

Yes, the owner of this villa is Francisco, who is rumored to be transferring from Chelsea this summer.He watched with great interest the post-match interview with the Italian Turin team broadcast on the sports TV station.

"Oh, the combination of No. 7 Cassel and No. 11 Yue, this is really the sharpest scoring weapon of the Turin team this season. Mr. Delo, is this arrangement intentional? You know, in Brazil This kind of combination also appeared in the national team. Bebeto and Romario back then! They are also a No. 7 and a No. 11. They are also small forwards from the traditional perspective, but they form the most terrifying team. Striker combination!"

When the reporter asked such a question, Delo laughed in a very good mood.It seems that the professionalism of this sports reporter gave him a certain favor, and such questions really amused him.

"To be honest, the combination of Cassell and Yue is indeed not bad. But it is not my ideal, the most perfect striker combination. They are just a temporary combination before the arrival of No. 10 in the Turin team. And small forward isn't the two of them's strongest position. But honestly, these two kids are doing a good job."

The words Delo said surprised many sports reporters present.After surprise, comes excitement.They couldn't help but wonder, this season's Kassel and Yue's striker combination is already so eye-catching, but this still fails to satisfy the coach of the Turin team, Mr. Delo.So... his ideal striker combination... What kind of No. 10 candidate does he have?

"It sounds like Mr. Drow already has a candidate in his mind?"

A female reporter keenly grasped the deep meaning of De Luo's words, and raised this question in a very positive tone.Then, she got the answer she wanted.

"Yes, in fact, I have already contacted the candidate for the No. 10 jersey. But at that time, he seemed to think that it was difficult for him to play in a second division team. This view is very understandable. So now I am telling him with facts that the Torino team is not a team that can only give him a high salary but cannot make him win. And, before he came, our Turin team His number [-] jersey will always be reserved for him."

This kind of inevitability, as well as the faint hint in the tone, amazed the reporters.They couldn't help being 12 curious about the player Delo said, and even began to guess who the player that a coach like Dero would value so much would be.

"The No. 10 jersey has always belonged to the core and legend of a team. The player with this jersey number seems to have always been the leader on the pitch. From Pele, Maradona, Zidane, Baggio, all the way to Ronaldo Jardinho, as well as the soul players of the team after that, almost all of them wear the No. 10 jersey. Therefore, this player will definitely be the soul of the Torino team in the future!"

"You are quite right, sir."

"And there are too many No. 10 players in the team who are responsible for organizing the offense. So he will have a very good overall view! And have good organizational skills! Maybe he will be a natural leader!"

"I think that seems to be the case."

The reporters played a guessing game with Dro in the post-match press conference after the Italian Serie B final.Every time they said a word of praise, Dero, who has always been merciless, smiled and nodded once. However, when they began to guess who the player was, Dero played "can't say" with others. Game, his smile was so ambiguous that the reporters who were so ambiguous that their eyes turned green couldn't wait to give him a few folding stools.

But obviously, no one thought that the Turin team, which had just been promoted from the second division to the Italian first division, would have such a wish for the top scorer in the Premier League at such an early time.They guessed a lot of people, and also guessed many aggressive world first-line stars, but obviously this group of reporters still underestimated Dro's unrestrained imagination.

Just as Francisco was sitting on the sofa watching the press conference, his agent Toure rang the doorbell.

The man who worked as a manager and a nanny for Francisco brought the salary quotations from the world's largest clubs to Francisco, and...Francisco's lunch...

"I didn't buy you something high-calorie. Although you will have a three-month vacation, I still hope that you can pay more attention to your physical condition. Then... here are Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Naples, There is also an offer from Inter Milan. Among them, Real Madrid gave you the highest offer. Since your contract with Chelsea is only two years old, their offer for a transfer fee is 500 million euros. However, the annual salary is 1000. €[-]. I think the price is right, and Barcelona's Igles seems to have caused them a lot of trouble in recent years. I researched the type of players Real Madrid has, and I can confirm that they do need a player Your type of player, not just bought back for window dressing."

It can be seen that Toure is a relatively reliable sports agent.At least, he will not only know what kind of commercials are suitable for Francisco to shoot during the offseason, but also to attend those commercial performances so that he can earn more.On issues such as transfers, Toure will not be careless. Although he is just an agent, he will still try his best to study football.

However, his suggestion was rejected by Francisco.

"I think I should consider more than just these few clubs."

Hearing this sentence, Toure seemed a little discouraged, and said helplessly: "Yes, in fact, Arsenal also made you a very good offer. But you have to know, he is your old club Chelsea. City rivals, you've had a lot of tough fights with them over the past four years. I thought you'd take the fans into consideration, so I just took Arsenal out of the mix."

"Of course, you are right, my agent. Perhaps I am not referring to Arsenal."

"what?"

"Yes, in fact, there is another team that also invited me, just half a year ago. At that time, I refused their invitation without mercy. But now, I may have changed my mind."

When Toure looked at Francisco with a puzzled look again, the top scorer in the Premier League turned his head to the TV, where the post-match interview with Torino was being broadcast, and the reporters were Speculation is in full swing as to who the No. [-] jersey that Torino is looking forward to bears.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and Toure's unbelievably frightened expression also froze...

……

A month later, Francisco, the top scorer in the Premier League, signed with Torino, which had just been promoted to the Italian Serie A, and put on the No. [-] jersey, shocking the world of football.
