[Football] Inzaghi couple

Milan was different to me, and it was only after I got there that I felt like a former wanderer had found a home.

——The Autobiography of Philip Inzaghi

"Juventus striker Gemini breaks up, no pass to each other on the field", "Juventus internal strife, rumored Gemini locker room fight", "Piero-Juventus No. 2000 ball tyrant", "Super Pippo?Super upset factor in the locker room! "... This is the news headline that most fans in Italy often see from various newspapers and media in the 2001-[-] season.

In the 2000-2001 season, for Juventus, infighting and discord may be their main theme.

Originally in the European Cup, the media was hyping why the Italian coach Zoff was not in good shape when he had an advantage in the final. Inzaghi, who was good at counterattacks, believed in Piero stubbornly.And the final result seems to confirm the opinion of the media. On the one hand, they continued to criticize the head coach's improper employment, and on the other hand, they were busy with La Piero topping the tank.

As a teammate of a club, Del Piero got all the criticism, but his teammates got all the compliments, and some media have been swearing that he put pressure on the coaching staff so that he could reach the final Play, and put the teammate in better condition on the bench.It can be said that Del Piero has taken on a lot of pressure and accusations, and brought these negative things back from the national team to the club.

Originally, the pair of striker twin stars had conflicts with each other because they lost the championship at the end of last season. Del Piero accused Inzaghi of not doing his best in the last game, and Inzaghi also ironically Since he wanted this championship, why didn't he work hard.Coupled with the current media hype, the passionate love period since the transfer between the two seems to have disappeared, and they have directly entered the breakup period.

Inzaghi came out of coach Ancelotti's office. He rubbed the bridge of his nose tiredly. This was not exhaustion caused by hard training, but more psychological exhaustion.

Just now in the head coach's office, Ancelotti talked to him, and the meaning of the words is very clear. As the head coach, he hopes that his two strikers can unite with sincerity.Ancelotti is not an idiot. He knows that the problem between the twin stars is serious, and it can already be described as a contradiction. However, as the head coach, he still hopes to let them temporarily suppress their contradictions and make an unanimous statement. The relationship between people can be discussed at the end of the season. At that time, the transfer window will also open, and everything will be resolved.

Inzaghi has great respect for Ancelotti, but he will not easily compromise on the issue of his own interests. He directly asked the club's plans for him.

The outside world has been rumored that he and Del Piero's conflicts, and more speculation that the conflicts between them are caused by completely different performances in the national team.But Inzaghi is clear that in the conflict between him and Del Piero, the national team only occupies a small part, and more is the status of the club.When Inzaghi originally transferred from Atlanta, he hoped to show his strengths, and he has been working hard.It's just a pity that no matter how hard he tries, he can only work hard towards the club's second player, because there is someone who has been firmly occupying Juventus' No.1 position.

Inzaghi always hoped that he would have a chance to compete with Del Piero, but Juventus refused to give him even this chance.Since the 98 World Cup, Piero's state has been very bad, and in order to help him adjust his state, Juventus even asked the whole team to give him more possession of the ball.On the contrary, Inzaghi's state has been maintained very well. In this time and space, he is still strict in diet, and in other aspects, such as sexual relationships, he is also living like an ascetic monk. More energy is needed. It was used on the court and scored goals in return, but it still didn't get the attention of the club.Inzaghi has no patience to continue waiting for the club to give him a chance, because the conflict between him and Del Piero is about to become clear. At that time, the two of them cannot coexist.

Regarding Inzaghi's question, Ancelotti found it difficult to answer. In fact, as the head coach of an outsider, he would choose Inzaghi based on his status.But Del Piero is the banner that Juventus has always supported, just like Raul is to Real Madrid, as long as their names are mentioned, they will think of the team they represent.Ancelotti thought of what he mentioned when the upper echelons of the club talked to him before, let him try to reconcile the conflicts between the twin stars, if he can't reconcile, then focus on protecting Del Piero.In other words, the club already has the idea of ​​​​selling Inzaghi, as long as he continues to be at odds with Del Piero, he will be sold in the summer.

Seeing the good old man's head coach thinking about how to answer his question in distress, Inzaghi already understood the attitude of the club. "I am a professional player, and I will show my best state during the game." He also expressed his attitude, he will try his best on the court, but in other respects...

Ancelotti sighed as he watched the striker he relied on just walk out of the office. It seems that the sale of Inzaghi in the summer is inevitable. "This doormat feeling between the club and the players sucks," Ancelotti muttered as he popped a bar of chocolate into his mouth.He felt that he might also need to think about his future, maybe it would be nice to go back to the club where he had a good playing career.By the way, a certain guy has been thinking about Inzaghi, maybe it's time to secretly reveal to him that Juventus is going to sell Inzaghi.

Put aside Ancelotti who was thinking about his future, Inzaghi walked out of the head coach's office in addition to feeling tired in his heart, but also felt relaxed. At least he has expressed his position through the head coach and the club .Inzaghi does not believe that the team will let him sit on the bench because he expressed his position. After all, the results of the game are still very important, so he needs to perform well in the short time left, except for Juventus fans A farewell gift, but also to show his strength to those potential clubs that may become his new club.

Inzaghi walked forward while thinking, and then saw Piero head-on.Both of them were startled, then nodded at each other, walked past each other without saying a word.Although they haven't reached the point where they don't talk to each other, they do have a lot less communication than before.

Because he had already made up his mind, Inzaghi was much calmer when facing Piero. At least Piero, who had been in the same heart with Inzaghi on the court, felt that the man just now seemed to be a little different.He couldn't help but stopped, and looked back at the man who was walking away. He didn't turn around until the man walked away again, and walked towards the head coach's office.And a quarter of an hour later, Piero, who came out of the head coach's office, was a little angry and a little dazed.

Piero was angry because he knew from Ancelotti that Inzaghi did not intend to back down, and he was at a loss because a person who had been fighting side by side with him for the past three years just left.At the same time, he was also a little angry, angry why Inzaghi didn't stay and continue to compete with him.In short, Piero's mood will be very complicated for a while, so that he is even more unwilling to talk to Inzaghi in the locker room, and it is even more solid to say that the two are at odds with each other.

Compared with Piero's contradictory heart, Inzaghi is much more relaxed.On the day he talked to Ancelotti, he called Maria.

After exchanging with each other about what they did today, and listening to Maria talk about what food she ate today, Inzaghi changed the subject and finally mentioned this matter: "I may have to transfer."

"Oh?" Maria's voice sounded calm. She has increased her understanding of Serie A in the past two years, especially this year, because she has a plan to implement.So she still has a good understanding of the troubles in Serie A, especially the things surrounding her husband.At least from the media reports that like to provoke right and wrong to gain people's attention, Maria knew that her husband and that Piero were about to fall apart.Although Maria knows that media reports can only be trusted halfway, she can get first-hand information from Inzaghi after all.From the previous few conversations, she has already made it clear that Juventus can only choose one of Inzaghi and Piero to stay, and Piero can make Juventus give up Baggio for him people, so it is already obvious who is going.

Inzaghi didn't ask why Maria was so calm and not surprised. Anyway, after marrying a wife with a high IQ, he got used to it long ago.Now what he needs more is a listener, and Maria has already played such a role very well on weekdays

"Between me and him, the club has obviously made a choice, so it's better for me to be wise and prepare to leave."

"Then have you thought about your next choice?" Maria knew that Inzaghi's state would have no shortage of next homes, so the club would listen to his opinions to some extent when operating the transfer.

"I don't think I will come to the United States to play football for the time being." Inzaghi said to Maria solemnly.He really wanted to end his separated life with Maria, but the football environment in the United States is still a bit poor, and the major leagues in the United States are a place for those stars who are on the verge of retiring. He feels that after waiting ten years, He will consider the issue of playing in the major leagues.

"I know, here is a very bad choice for you. If you really choose to play in the United States, I can only say that you have made a very bad investment." Maria opened an account from her professional perspective. joked. "So how about going abroad to play football? Our Italian men seem to be a little bit family-loving, and very few like to go abroad to play football."

After she finished speaking, she denied herself. Now Serie A still insists that it is the world's number one league. Serie A is naturally the first choice for Italian players.Can play in Serie A, who will go abroad to play.It's just that for future consideration, Maria is currently studying several major leagues from an economic point of view, and she clearly realizes that the advantages of Serie A are no longer obvious.The promotion is in place, the Premier League and La Liga, which attract stars with rich money, and the Bundesliga, which has been developing healthily and benignly, will gradually catch up.Maria feels that there is a word that is very suitable for the current Serie A, and that is to close the country.It was bad, but Maria thought it was another chance, for her.

But those are all things to consider in the future. Right now, what she needs to consider most is her husband's next stop: "So it's a domestic team?"

"I think it should be." Inzaghi expressed his admiration for Maria's intelligence, which is the most convenient way for smart people to speak.

"How about Brescia?" Originally thought that Maria would mention several traditional giants in Italy, but instead she mentioned an unremarkable team.Of course, this team is not so inconspicuous, because there is a superstar in that team-Robert Baggio. At the beginning of this season, Baggio moved from Inter Milan to Brescia.At that time, many people did not understand his choice.Although he is a little older and has more injuries, but his glory is still there, why did he choose to go to a team that can't get up or down?However, after Baggio moved to Brescia, more and more smiles appeared on his face, and more and more people realized that maybe he made a very correct choice.Maria loves the house and Wu, because of Baggio's relationship, she has a good impression of Brescia.And out of selfish considerations, she also hopes that Inzaghi can play with Baggio.Probably because she has heard from Inzaghi many times that his idol is Baggio, and she also knows how much her brother loves her, so she doesn't know how to introduce each other's identity to the two of them.If Inzaghi is willing to transfer to Brescia this time, let the two of them get along well, and then it will be natural for her to take advantage of the situation to spread out the relationship between them.

"Brescia?" Inzaghi didn't expect Maria to mention this team. He hesitated for a while. Brescia's record and popularity only increased after Baggio was born this year. Their coach discovered Totti's Roma. Godfather Mazzoni, he still doesn't like the record and background of this team.Even though the temptation to play with Baggio was strong, he only hesitated before saying no.

Maria heard Inzaghi's voice-over. As a smart wife, she would not interfere with her husband's decision. Although she was a little regretful, she still said to Inzaghi: "You decide for yourself, this is your career, you You have to think clearly." Her husband is not the kind of person who can't figure it out, and he won't get confused when things happen, she just needs to know the result of his consideration in the end.

"Well, I will think about it." Inzaghi also agreed with Maria's words, he must be responsible for his career.

After hanging up the phone with Maria, Inzaghi called his agent Tinti again and told him his thoughts on transferring.Tinti has actually noticed it a long time ago. As an agent, he naturally knows that the media reports may not be groundless. Before Inzaghi mentioned the transfer, he had already started to make preparations.

After reaching a consensus with Tinti, Inzaghi was relieved.Of course, the club and the agent are responsible for the transfer. He just needs to play well, make his final life in Juventus go smoothly, and leave as many happy memories as possible for Juventus fans.

In the following days, Inzaghi still trained seriously and spared no effort in the game. Of course, the relationship with Del Piero still deteriorated.Perhaps the mood was too complicated. When fighting for the ball in the game, Del Piero was more aggressive. Even when Inzaghi was in a more favorable position, he would not pass the ball to Inzaghi.Now it is more confirmed that the Juventus striker is at odds, the credibility of the news of the disintegration, and Juventus has released some hidden rumors to the outside world, and the teams that are interested in Inzaghi have also begun to make offers to Juventus.

On this day, Inzaghi had just returned home after training when his cell phone rang.Inzaghi was a little dazed when he saw the caller, but he didn't expect it to be him.He answered the phone: "Hello, Coach Maldini." On the other end of the phone was his old national coach Maldini in the 98 World Cup.

"Hello, Pippo." The old Maldini's voice sounded very loud during the phone call, and it seemed that the old coach was in good physical condition.

"Hello, sir. How are you recently?" Inzaghi asked respectfully. The old Maldini has been unemployed at home recently, and there are relatively few reports on his situation from the outside world.

"I can still..." The old Maldini happily told Inzaghi about his recent interesting things, and then suddenly changed the topic: "Pippo, I heard that you may leave Juventus after the end of the season?"

Inzaghi's heart moved, it seems that this is the main reason why the old coach called.But which club will he be a lobbyist for?Inzaghi quickly went through the contacts of the old coach in Serie A in his mind, and then the name of a club immediately appeared in his mind - AC Milan!

AC Milan is a giant in Serie A no less than Juventus. I don’t know how many famous players have emerged, such as Baresi, Maldini, and the Dutch Three Musketeers.

If this is the team, Inzaghi must admit that he is very excited.It's just that he still needs to confirm with the old Maldini: "I am still a Juventus player, but if the club has the willingness to sell, I will respect them."

The old Maldini laughed, and Inzaghi's words have already admitted from the side that he will leave Juventus. "I may have to say goodbye to this leisurely life now."

"Are you going out of the mountain?" Yin Zaji knew the elegant meaning immediately after hearing the string song. "Which team is it?" He guessed that the team that Maldini is going to be out of is the team that he came to lobby for today.

"Milan is not very satisfied with Zaccheroni, so I hope that I can come out and command the rest of the game instead of him, and it will be officially announced in two days."

Inzaghi understood it all at once, it really was Milan, that is to say, he was interested in him, and the team that asked Maldini to be a lobbyist was Milan! "Congratulations, sir."

"Pippo, we had a great time working together during the World Cup in France. I was thinking that it would be a pleasure to work with you again if I had the opportunity." Maldini gradually got to the point. I admired Inzaghi very much during the World Cup in France. At that time, I thought that if he coached the club, he must find a way to get the striker into his team.Now Milan has found him and hopes that he can come out as a firefighting coach. He has a deep affection for Milan and he naturally agrees. Although he is not sure that he will continue to coach Milan next season, he still hopes that the club will make an offer to Juventus after consideration. Ji bought it.It's just that although Milan and Juventus have a so-called "holy alliance" relationship, such a flow of main players is still very cautious.Although the old Maldini believed in Galliani's ability to gossip and lower prices, Juve's Moggi was not easy to deal with, so he planned to talk to Inzaghi first, which might be much easier.

"What do you mean?" Inzaghi felt that he had already cultivated a wife who always speaks surprisingly. At least for now, he could calmly face even hearing that Milan was interested in him.

"I hope you can come to Milan, you will like it here, just like Basten and the others..." Maldini the old talked to Inzaghi about his prospects after joining Milan.

After some conversations, although Inzaghi did not give a definite answer, the old Maldini could hear the looseness in his tone, which means that at least Inzaghi himself has no objection to coming to Milan.After all, he is still under contract with Juventus, so he cannot express his willingness to join another club casually.

The two talked a lot afterward. Apart from the team itself, the old Maldini introduced many beautiful places in the city of Milan to Inzaghi. In addition to history and culture, he made another joke: "Here There are many beautiful girls, and I think your good friend Vieri should have a say in this."

After Vieri moved to Inter Milan, more news of getting along with all kinds of beauties appeared, showing people that his reputation as a playboy is not in vain.Old Maldini remembers that Vieri and Inzaghi have always been good friends. It is said that they used to pick up girls together. The two of them should have similar temperaments, so Vieri, the beauty of Xiangche, is interested, and Inzaghi should be similar .

Inzaghi is a bit embarrassing. Although he has been to bars and nightclubs with his teammates in the past two years, he did not mess around. He just spends as much time as possible every year to fly to the United States to date his wife. Why has the reputation of this playboy not been shaken? Lose.

But now that the old coach has lowered his face to be a lobbyist, he has to seriously consider the feasibility of joining Milan.

After waiting for the old Maldini to put down the phone, Inzaghi called his agent Tinti again and discussed with him the prospect of joining Milan.In the end, both he and Tinti believed that Milan was indeed a very reliable choice for him.

Soon Milan's offer for Inzaghi was also faxed to the Juventus club. After Tinti hinted to Moggi, negotiations between Juventus and Milan began to join Inzaghi, or talk about it.Galliani wants to use the lowest price to win Inzaghi, while Moggi wants more transfer fees, and it is best to get a few stars of hope from the Milan youth academy.These two are transfer masters, the kind that can cause headaches for their opponents the most. Now that the two of them have become opponents, it is really a process that gives them a headache.But the result was happy for all. As soon as the season ended, the two clubs announced that Juventus striker Philip Inzaghi would transfer to AC Milan for 4090 million euros.

Because this summer has been busy dealing with transfers and adapting to a new club, Inzaghi returned to Italy after only a few days in the United States. He did not know that his wife had made an important decision.

"You have really decided. I actually hope that you can give up the idea of ​​resigning." Buffett glanced at the resignation letter in his hand, and then at the girl sitting there quietly in front of him.

"I'm sorry, Warren, I had a great time at Berkshire Hathaway, but I want to make some changes in my future, even if this change is not in my previous plan, maybe it will make me But I want to give it a try.” Maria said to Buffett apologetically that although she differed from Buffett in terms of investment philosophy, she learned a lot from Buffett, and the two of them got along very well. Well, it can be said that Buffett is her teacher and has taught her a lot.But—she looked down at the ring that she had never taken off, but she should consider the impact of marriage on her life, and she hoped to achieve a balance between marriage and career.

Buffett shrugged his shoulders. He felt helpless. He and Maria had disagreements on investment philosophy. Sometimes he would call people into his office to quarrel when he saw the report submitted by Maria.But he really admired this girl, and hoped that she could study here for a few more years before letting her go out to make a living, but young people now also have their own ideas.

"Have you thought about your future yet?"

"I plan to go back to Italy and set up an investment company for professional athletes." Maria told her plan, which is a business plan that she has been brewing for a while.

"Professional athletes?" Buffett frowned. He thought of those black athletes like the NBA in the United States who spend a lot of money as soon as they have money. They have money, but they rarely let their money make money. will go bankrupt.If you can persuade them, it is indeed a good entrepreneurial direction.

"Back to Italy? Is it for him?" Buffett knew that Maria was married. Although some people in the company did not believe that she got married at such a young age, the old man still believed it, because once he and the young couple We had dinner together.The two men were not very calm at the dinner. Buffett was not calm that Maria was really married at such a young age, and she was also a player who had a young meal and did not seem to have a high degree of education. Inzaghi was a little shocked that he would Celebrities like Buffett dined together, only Maria finished the meal leisurely.

Maria nodded: "I've made him wait for too long, and it's time to return to Italy. Of course, this is only a small aspect. I really think this market is very suitable for expansion."

Buffett smiled without saying a word, this girl sometimes speaks insincerely.

After thinking about it, Buffett wrote a check and handed it to Maria: "Since you said you are very optimistic about this market, let me invest in individual stocks." It would be very convenient for Maria to do things, but in Italy, everything depends on Maria.

Maria glanced at the amount of the check. Compared with Buffett's usual investment, the amount was not huge, but it was already a huge sum of money for her start-up. "Thank you Warren." She didn't refuse, but was going to go back and calculate how many shares the money should give Buffett.

"I will miss you. Berkshire Hathaway will always be your mother's home. Call me if you need it." Buffett stood up and hugged Maria. "I wish you success!"

"Thank you Warren." Maria said sincerely.
