Prominence in Football Community

Gao Zheng could feel that he was in a really good state today. He showed his talent on the court to the fullest, turning other people—whether opponents or teammates—into his supporting roles.

And this time, there was no such thing as Konut and him provoking each other.

After a week of training, the players of the reserve team all recognized Gao Zheng's ability and believed that Gao Zheng would definitely become their teammate after the trial training. That being the case, there is no need to make the smell of gunpowder too strong.

So from the perspective of examining players, this last game is not very important.

More like a show.

Gao Zheng fully demonstrated his ability in this show.

He scored goals, assisted, and delivered imaginative skills.

Berardi, who was his opponent in this game, was staring at the stars. If it weren't for the watchful eyes of everyone, he really wanted to cheer Gao Zheng.

Guo Wei has been standing by the side applauding Gao Zheng's every wonderful performance, and at the same time secretly observing Sassuolo's coach.

The two coaches in the initial test are still standing on the sidelines today, but what makes Guo Wei a little strange is that as long as Gao Zheng has an outstanding performance in the game, the two coaches will frown...

What does it mean?

Guo Wei was a little confused. Could it be that he, an old fan who hasn't watched football for many years, can't keep up with the times and can't understand the new requirements of modern football for players?

The expressions of the coaches made Guo Wei, who had been sure of Gao Zheng's signing with Sassuolo, a little worried.

Guo Wei didn't know what the coaches were thinking, the frown was not because Gao Zheng's performance was bad, but because Gao Zheng's performance was too good...

Obviously a young player with great talent and potential, but because of the "authority" of the Milan laboratory, he could not be signed. They also knew why Gao Zheng performed so well. He must be looking forward to joining Sassuolo, right?

But unfortunately, in the eyes of coaches who know the inside story, Gao Zheng is just doing useless work.

So the better Gao Zheng performed, the more uncomfortable they were.

Just as the game was about to end, there was one more person beside the two coaches.

"I'm here to be the villain." Sports director Nerio Bonato stood between the two with a deadpan expression.

Mandeli sighed when he heard this, but Carlino on the other side laughed.

The other two looked at him.

"Now I hope that the Milan laboratory is right." Carlino said with a smile. "I won't be kicked out in the future, and we Sassuolo will be reduced to a real villain by then and be ridiculed."

Manderley opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.

But Bonato remained stern and expressionless.

※※※

The game ended soon, and Gao Zheng became the focus of attention of the audience. Even the two companions who came to the trial training with him also set their sights on Gao Zheng. Everyone can see that Gao Zheng is the best player in the game, and he will definitely stay on this team. Presumably the next thing the club announced to sign him...

Sure enough, Gao Zheng was beckoned to the sidelines by the head coach of the reserve team, Mandley.

Gao Zheng ran over unsteadily.

In addition to the coach, he also saw a stranger with a serious expression.

"This is Mr. Bonato, the sports director of the club," Manderley introduced.

"Hello, sir." Gao Zheng greeted the other party with a smile.

Facing Gao Zheng who was still smiling, Bonato nodded lightly with a stern smile.

Guo Wei came up with his mobile phone. He wanted to record this memorable moment with a video, and show it to Lao Yang when he went back, so that he would be happy too.

Right after he pressed the record button, he heard the athletic director say in a deadpan voice, "Gao, I'm sorry to inform you that we can't sign you."

Guo Wei looked away from the phone screen and looked at Bonato. He thought he heard it wrong.

not only him,

The other players present were also collectively stunned.

Gao Zheng's smile froze on his face. For about a second, he frowned slightly, and then continued to maintain a polite smile and asked, "Excuse me, sir?"

"Sassuolo couldn't sign you, unfortunately, but you can go to other clubs..."

When Bonato repeated these words, Mandeli bowed his head beside him. He felt embarrassed, but not for himself, but for Gao Zheng. He didn't want to stay here for a second.

"Why?" Gao Zheng still had a smile on his face, but his smile at this time was completely different from the one just now. In Carlino's view, Gao Zheng's smile was a little... fierce. He had an illusion that if Bonato's answer didn't suit the kid, he might have to show Bonato the next second...

Looking at the smile on the young man's face, Bonato, an old fritter, felt that he could not hold for the first time. He tried to maintain a cold face: "The reason why you left AC Milan should be clearer than us. ?”

Hearing that Gao Zheng raised one hand, Bonato subconsciously wanted to hide - he thought Gao Zheng was going to beat him up...

But Gao Zheng just clasped his hands on top of his head, then lowered his head and scratched his hair.

"So it's because of this...that's right, it can only be because of this..."

When Gao Zheng said this, the people in front of him heard laughter - he said it with a smile.

Sure enough, when Gao Zheng raised his head again, he still had a smile on his face, and he asked with a smile, "Do you really believe in the conclusion of the Milan laboratory?"

"They are authorities..." Bonato slightly retracted his jaw, which was an instinctive movement that felt dangerous.

"Then what if they are wrong? Is the authority wrong?" Gao Zheng stared at Bonato and asked, still smiling.

Facing the young man's direct gaze, Bonato didn't know how to answer.

Carlino didn't mean to save Boantuo at all, but curled his lips and smiled silently.

It was Manderley who came out to save Bonato, and he persuaded: "Gao, this...we actually appreciate your talent, you don't have to be like this..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Gao Zheng take off his green and black Sassuolo jersey.

"When did Sassuolo become a satellite club of AC Milan?" After speaking, Gao Zheng threw the Sassuolo jersey on the ground, turned around and dragged Guo Wei away.

"Let's go, Uncle Guo."

Gao Zheng's last move caused a commotion on the court. Berardi tried to call Gao Zheng, but Gao Zheng didn't respond to his call and walked out of the training ground without looking back.

After he walked away, Bonato, who had been stern, let out a sigh of relief: "Damn, this villain... is so fucking difficult!"

Mandeli leaned over to pick up the jersey thrown on the ground by Gao Zheng, and he murmured, "What if we make a mistake..."

"Don't think about it, Palo, this is over. Hey, where is Luciano?" Bonato noticed that the Carlino beside him was gone.

※※※

"What's the matter..." Guo Wei, who was dragged out by Gao Zheng, complained while checking the video on his mobile phone - he was so scared that he forgot to stop the video just now, and ended up recording the whole process into the phone.

In the video, Gao Zheng is questioning Bonato: "What if they are wrong? Is the authority wrong?"

He plans to delete the video.

But Gao Zheng stopped him: "Don't delete it, Uncle Guo."

Guo Wei's hand almost touched the delete button, but he stopped and asked, "Why? This is not something worth remembering..."

"'Sassuolo rejected the future superstar', what a commemorative scene. Pass it to me." Gao Zheng raised his mobile phone.

"You were rejected by others, you failed the trial training, and you still have the mood to joke..." Guo Wei shook his head.

"I'm not joking, Uncle Guo. I mean it, Sassuolo will regret their decision today."

Guo Wei heard the meaning of Gao Zheng's words: "Do you want to continue?"

"I said I won't go back if I don't get along well. I want to play football, and I can only play football." Gao Zheng said to Guo Wei seriously. "So Uncle Guo, I want to borrow some money from you, not too much, enough for me to stay here until my visa expires."

His visa stay in Italy is one month, and he has used up a week, which means that Gao Zheng still has three weeks to work hard for his future.

"When I become a professional player, I will pay you back soon, Uncle Guo."

Looking at Gao Zheng's serious look, Guo Wei seemed to have seen the day when he left, telling him in the car that he was going to be famous, and then let the whole world know that Director Yang was his coach. Gao Zheng was also so serious at that time .

Thinking of this, Guo Wei said, "I won't lend you money, Xiao Gao."

Under Gao Zheng's surprised gaze, he continued, "I'll go with you."

"Uncle Guo, your business..."

"I'm already the boss, and I still have to keep an eye on the business all day long. What's the point of being the boss?" Guo Wei snorted.

Gao Zheng smiled: "Thank you, Uncle Guo."

"Why are you being polite..." After getting along for a week, the two of them also had some feelings.

"Then let's go." Guo Wei opened the car door, "Where shall we go next?"

Gao Zheng was stuck because he didn't know where to go next...

"I remember there was a club right where we lived, Modena," he said after a moment of thought.

"Then go there!" Guo Wei was about to leave, time was running out.

But at this moment, a voice sounded: "If you don't mind, I would like to persuade you to try Genoa."

When the two turned their heads, they saw Luciano Carlino, the assistant coach of Sassuolo's first team, looking at them with a smile.

"I thought you guys changed your mind..." Guo Wei snorted, because he rejected Gao Zheng, he now has a bad impression of the club Sassuolo.

Carlino looked at Gao Zheng: "Even if we change our minds, I don't think Gao will look back, right?"

Gao Zheng also smiled and said, "Of course."

"I knew it." Carlino took out a business card from his pocket, and wrote a series of numbers on it. "I have a friend in Sampdoria, Luciano Bruni, he is now the head coach of Sampdoria's reserve team. This is my business card, this is his phone number, just say I recommended it, He will definitely give you a chance to try out. But whether you can impress him or not is up to you.”

Gao Zheng took the business card and looked at it: "How do I know that Sampdoria won't reject me for the same reason?"

"I don't know, you can only try."

"Well, anyway...thank you." Gao Zheng put away his business card.

"You're welcome." Carlino smiled. "You're right, Kao, authority is fallible, nothing is preordained. Good luck."

After speaking, he left.

"This coach is interesting..." Guo Wei said with emotion.

Gao Zheng opened the car door and sat in: "Let's go, go to Genoa!"
