1997 was probably a very important year for me. That year I moved from Atalanta Club to Juventus. It was also the year I met my wife Maria.

——The Autobiography of Philip Inzaghi

After a season of Serie A campaign, Inzaghi can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

In the locker room, his teammates are celebrating the end of the season, and for a lifter like Atalanta to find themselves in the top tier at the end of the season is a very rewarding experience. Something to celebrate.

In this joyful atmosphere, Inzaghi, who seemed too calm, seemed a bit out of place.But everyone has been together for a whole season, and naturally they know this cold-faced killer very well.

He is handsome, and his every move can often attract the screams of female fans.But on the court, he prefers to shoot cold arrows suddenly, almost like a stealth assassin.Calm and even a bit cold-blooded is the best description of him on the court, and this calmness obviously carried into the locker room today.

"Hey, Pipo, you are our top scorer in Serie A this year, be happy. Our game is over, and we can finally have a good vacation. Think about those beautiful girls, and you will be excited immediately." Someone next to him said that, and everyone laughed.

They are very envious of Inzaghi, the top scorer in the team and Serie A this season. Didn't the fans give him the nickname "Super Pippo"?And Super Pipo seems to be more popular with those female fans, they haven't had this kind of luck yet.These players also called Inzaghi by the nickname Pippo just like the fans, and they also wanted to share Inzaghi's scoring luck and peach blossom luck.

Seeing his teammates laughing, Inzaghi also laughed, but he laughed more in cooperation with his teammates, and he didn't actually take the top scorer too seriously in his heart.Just a top scorer in Serie A, what he longs for is a bigger stage and more opportunities to show himself.If given the chance, he would make the name of Philippe Inzaghi known throughout Europe and the world.

"I'll go first." Inzaghi had already packed his personal belongings, and walked towards the door of the locker room with his bag. When he reached the door, he remembered that he hadn't said goodbye to his teammates. He stopped, and then turned around handsomely. Said to his teammates: "Goodbye!" Then strode out of the locker room.

After Inzaghi left, someone inadvertently glanced at Inzaghi's locker: "Pippo's locker is really clean, there is nothing left."

"Really, isn't this guy a clean freak?"

Listening to the discussion of those young players, several old players in the locker room looked at each other, and the same eyes flashed in each other's eyes - this group of idiots, this shows that Pipo is determined to leave Atlanta up.But yes, with his performance this season, how could he be willing to stay in a small club like Atlanta who doesn't know when he will be relegated?

Just like what these experienced veteran players think, Inzaghi has indeed firmly established his idea of ​​​​moving and leaving.

Not long after he got home, he spoke to his agent, Tinti, on the phone.

Tinti's voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little tired, and that's right, the end of the season is for the players to start their vacation and have a good rest.But for agents, this is precisely the signal of the war. After the end of the season, it is their busiest time. They want to fight for salary increases, better endorsements, and better teams for their players. Of course, it is also to work hard to get more commissions.

"I have several offers for you now. Both Juventus and Inter Milan are interested in you." Although Tinti said that there were some offers, he only mentioned Juventus and Inter Milan in the end. From the perspective of an agent, the rest are not worth mentioning.

Inzaghi didn't change his expression when he heard the names of Juventus and Inter Milan, and he didn't feel flattered, because he felt that his performance could completely gain a foothold in these giant clubs.

What he cares more about now is the sincerity of those two clubs, which will affect his final decision. "What do you think?"

Tingti obviously had plans for a long time ago: "I don't agree with Inter Milan. You have to know that the chairman of Inter Milan has a forward hoarding habit." The chairman of Inter Milan, Tinti is also a little helpless.

Moratti has only been the president of the club for two years, but he has no rules, and he also likes strikers very much. He keeps spending big money to buy big names and makes the locker room a mess.In just two years, Inter Milan has the reputation of a star black hole.This kind of place, as a responsible agent, he does not support Inzaghi to go there.As the top scorer of this season, Inzaghi is on the list of "forward hoarder" Moratti. He still hopes that Inzaghi can think about his future rationally.

"Juve's offer is lower than Inter Milan, right?" Inzaghi didn't say anything more about Inter Milan, but asked about another potential club.

"Yes, that guy Moggi's money is not easy to earn, one him, one Galliani, I really don't want to deal with them." Tingdi paused, then said: "If you don't like Juventus , I still have a few offers from abroad.” He said hesitantly, how many Italians are willing to leave the beautiful Apennines and Serie A, known as the “Little World Cup”, to enter other leagues?Or to put it bluntly, the problem of Italians' family love is particularly obvious in the football field. Only people like Zola and others at the end of their careers will choose to go abroad to earn some pension money.

Sure enough, Inzaghi was not interested in foreign invitations.At this time, Serie A is still the world's No. [-] league, and he hopes to prove himself here. "I have no intention of going abroad to play football."

"I understand. I will continue to talk to Juventus. Juventus has been training Del Piero with all their strength in the past two years. They want to find a striker who can partner with Del Piero." Tinti specifically proposed a person's name , He also hinted that even if he really arrives at Juventus, his status may not be able to keep up with Del Piero.

Inzaghi was silent for a moment, Alessandro Del Piero, he said the man's name silently.This person who squeezed out Baggio and made the white-headed Ravanelli leave the heyday of Serie A and go to England in his prime, if he really goes to Juventus, he will face the competition of this person.

But - Inzaghi smiled, where is there no competition?This is even more so on the football field. He has to compete with his opponents, teammates, and everyone who stands in his way.How can it be said that he must not be able to compete with Piero before the fight has started.

After a few more conversations with Tinti, Inzaghi put down the phone.

After waiting for a while, Inzaghi picked up the phone and made another call he knew by heart: "Hello, mom..."

After talking with his parents for about 5 minutes, Inzaghi put down the phone tiredly.He gently twitched the corner of his mouth, and his parents talked about his brother Simeone for about 5 minutes in a phone call of about 3 minutes.

For Simeone, who is also on the road of a football player, Inzaghi loves and loves his brother. The road of loving his brother is very difficult.When he had already played in Serie A, Simeone could only be loaned to a Serie C team to exercise.

But even if it is still a bit rough in the football field, at least Simeone has more parents' love than him.

Inzaghi pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly, throwing away his jealousy towards Simeone.Perhaps it is a good choice to go abroad for a walk and then go home. Presumably, it will not be long before Tingti's method is used to settle his transfer.

Inzaghi took out a few travel magazines and flipped through them. Finally, he fixed his gaze on a photo of American Disneyland in one of the magazines.

Although Inzaghi is a calm assassin on the court, he has a special hobby, he likes Mickey Mouse very much.So Disneyland with many Mickey Mouse became the place Inzaghi was planning to go to, and he immediately booked a ticket to California, USA.

And when Inzaghi was boarding the plane from Italy to the United States, there was also a person in the United States planning to go out for a short-term vacation at this moment.

While Mia and Ellie were sitting together watching TV and eating their dinner, the door of the apartment was opened from the outside.The slender and tall Maria came in angrily from the outside, and then sat directly beside Ellie, and even grabbed a piece of pizza from the box on the table and ate it.

"Aren't you supposed to be dating Peter, a high-achieving student from the business school, and enjoy a loving candlelight dinner? I thought you weren't going to come back tonight?" Avery winked at Mia ambiguously.

Their roommate is the youngest, but he is a grade-jump student and a high-achieving student, and the beauty from Italy is very attractive to the boys.Maria, on the other hand, prefers to concentrate on her studies, and recently agreed to date Peter, a doctoral student from the same college who pursued her very diligently.And it seems that the two people with the same major and common topics are making good progress. They originally thought that Maria would move in with Peter in a short time, but seeing Maria like this, it is obvious that this possibility may not happen in the short term. up.

"We broke up, or I dumped him unilaterally." Maria smartly picked up a piece of pizza from the box on the table and took a bite, with such force that she obviously regarded this piece of pizza as that person. Mr. Peter who has been dumped.

"What's the matter?" Mia asked curiously. The three of them had different backgrounds, and they were studying graduate programs in three different Harvard schools. They became roommates and good friends by chance.But Maria, though the youngest of them all, was probably the most mature.She was a little curious as to why Maria dumped Peter.

Ellie and Mia looked at each other, then one got up to get Maria juice, and the other went to get Maria something to eat.

Maria took a sip of juice as if she was enjoying it, and then said, "Peter is stepping on two boats, but to be precise, I don't know how many boats it is."

"Really?" Mia and Ellie were a little surprised. Peter used to show courteousness in front of them in pursuit of Maria, but after thinking about it, maybe Peter's courteousness was a bit too much at that time.

Maria nodded: "I've already found out." She sneered, "Peter is indeed a top student in the business school, he is very intelligent, some girls he chases after purely for pleasure, some for money, and some even just Because you can eat delicious meals, and me, for his graduation thesis."

"Graduation thesis?" Mia and Ellie understood. Although Maria was young, she seemed to be born in the financial field.I think that Peter pursued Maria with the idea of ​​getting Maria to write his graduation thesis for him. Moreover, Maria is very beautiful and talented, so she is quite smart.

"Do you need me to give you some legal advice? Emmott can also help." Avery, a beautiful woman from Harvard Law School, asked.Emmott is her boyfriend and a law school professor.

Maria shook her head: "I have already retaliated back, and I gave him the data he needs."

"What does he need?" Mia looked suspiciously at Maria, who was completely free from the depression after the breakup. She absolutely did not believe that Maria had such a virgin.

"Yes, it is what he needs. I think he will get a good score from the professor because of these statistics." Maria laughed, the famous cold beauty of Harvard Business School. Allie and Mia, who saw her smile, both crossed Peter in their hearts, and they must provoke Maria if they don't provoke anyone.

Avery and Mia saw that Maria was not depressed about being broken in love, so they simply stopped talking about this topic, and the three girls watched TV laughing and laughing together.

At this time, Maria's phone rang. After Maria connected, she immediately laughed when she heard the other party's voice: "Hi, Robert."

Avery and Mia looked at each other, it turned out that it was my elder brother who was far away in Italy calling.They have been with Maria for a year, and they also know that Maria is from Italy. Apart from her parents, there are eight brothers and sisters in her family, and the one she has the closest relationship with is this Mr. Robert on the phone, the youngest brother who is ten years older than her. .It was only when they talked with Robert on the phone that they found out that the cold beauty Maria was actually a brother-controller, and it was still in the advanced stage.

Maria seemed to be chatting with Robert about the recent situation on the phone: "I'm about to graduate in one year, well, I plan to work in the United States for two years before going back... But I will go back during my vacation... What are you talking about?" Are you going to transfer?" Maria's voice rose sharply, and then she immediately became cautious.

Avery and Mia looked over at Maria's suddenly raised voice, then shook their heads again.Maria said that her brother is a football player, so this is a transfer?

"Well, I see. I won't go back this summer. Call me after you settle down." Maria put down the phone calmly. Although she looked calm, she was in a very bad mood at the moment.She wasn't that angry even if someone stepped on two boats, but what happened to her brother Robert this time still made her very angry.She hates those people and the club that made her brother suffer so much, and hopes that one day she will be able to have the ability to take revenge.

"You're in a bad mood?" Mia asked after seeing Maria finished making the phone call. "Why don't you go out to relax during the holidays, so you'll feel better." She knew that Maria would face the problem of finding a job on Wall Street in addition to preparing her graduation thesis next semester.

Maria had originally planned to go back to Italy on vacation to see her parents, siblings, especially her silly brother Robert.But on the phone, Robert mentioned that he wanted to transfer, and Maria knew that with her brother's reputation in Italy, Robert might not be able to be quiet this summer, so she couldn't make trouble for Robert.So it seems that Mia's proposal to go on a trip is a good idea.

"Then are you going? It would be great for us to play together." Maria looked at her two roommates. They got along very well and were already good friends.

Ellie shook her head first: "I'm going on a trip with Emmott, so I'm sorry." She clasped her hands together and apologized to Maria.

"There is no humanity in the opposite sex." Mia complained, but she also looked at Maria apologetically, "Sorry, I have to be busy studying with the people sent by my grandma during my vacation."

This time it was Ellie's turn to complain: "Poor little princess, well, who made your future career determined, oh oh, the great Queen Mia!"

Mia, who was being teased, immediately stepped forward and got into trouble with Ellie. Maria was also infected by two friends, and the three girls laughed together.

After the three of them had had enough trouble, Maria said: "Since you two are so unkind, I can only travel by myself."

She planned to go to Las Vegas to have fun, but she didn't expect how this trip would affect her future life.
