The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 222 Ricardo joins

Inter Milan officially announced: Ricardo joined from Sao Paulo for US$20 million.

As soon as the official news was updated, many clubs sighed. It is said that Ancelotti was so angry that he dropped his mouse.

And in the far east, a group of keyboard warriors have also expressed their views on the Internet.

"Great, Ricardo has joined, and Inter Milan is about to flourish."

"Cut, it's not good to go to the star black hole, bet 50 cents that Licado will be sold at a low price after two seasons."

"5555, why doesn't Ricardo join me?"

"I don't understand why he didn't join the Galacticos."

"My big Bayern will not give up. Ricardo will only be 23 when his contract expires. At that time, we will dig him again!"

The scene of the press conference.

Licado posed for an autograph and let the reporters "chachacha" take pictures. Although the real contract has already been signed, it is just a show.

Then came the display of the jersey. Riccardo put the jersey with the number 1o, 1icardo in front of him, shook hands with club chairman Facchetti, and murdered the memory of many digital cameras.

The standard of this press conference was very high. Chairman Facchetti, former chairman Moratti, coach Mancini, sports director Blanco, etc. were all present, and almost all the mainstream Italian media were present.

After the photo session ended, Licado began to answer questions from reporters.

He said in fluent Italian: "It was my childhood dream to join Inter Milan, so I followed in the footsteps of my brother and came here.

I am very happy to play for this team with a long history and glorious tradition. I understand what this blue and black jersey means. I will do my best to help the team regain the league title and go further in the Champions League . "

"It is undeniable that Ronaldo is an important factor that prompted me to join. He persuaded me many times. He told me the history of Inter Milan, let me understand the meaning of wearing a blue and black jersey, and let me understand the spirit of Inter Milan."

"Needless to say, the personal treatment that Inter Milan gave me is not as good as AC Milan. But I love here, I can't wait to wear the Nerazzurri jersey, so I agreed to Inter Milan's terms without hesitation. I play more than just For money, some things are more important than money."

After some social rhetoric, the reporters began to ask pointed questions.

"Inter Milan now has 7 forwards, do you think you can play the main force immediately?"

Ricardo smiled and said: "Inter Milan has the best striker in the world, but I am not afraid of competition. I will try to impress the coach with the level in training. But I can also play other positions. I played in Sao Paulo. Waist, left midfielder, and a guest on the right midfielder, you can go to find out, I have a good swing in these positions. Yes, I am a versatile player in the frontcourt. As for when I can play the main force, I think it depends. It's something the head coach should consider, and I will obey the arrangement and do whatever the head coach wants me to do."

"Italian football and Brazilian football have completely different styles. Do you think you can adapt quickly?"

Quick adaptation is of course no problem. Ricardo didn't play many games in Serie A in his previous life, but he played a full Serie B season. The styles of Serie B and Serie A are similar, but they pay more attention to physical confrontation and their skills are rougher. "I am happy to have new challenges. Serie A football is very defensive and it is very difficult to succeed here. But I believe that I can conquer here and hope to use my performance to bring more victories to the team."

"Since you officially set foot on the professional field, you have played 123 times for the club and scored 124 goals. You have played 20 times for the Brazilian national team and scored 15 goals. Some people think that you are the number one new star in today's football. Among the young people, the most promising player to win the title, what do you think, do you think you can grow up in Inter Milan?"

Regarding this question, Riccardo seemed very cautious. "I don't think I'm the No. 1 star. There are many outstanding young players emerging. For example, Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona's Leo Messi..."

"But now they are far from being on par with you." The reporter interrupted him.

"They are all rare talents in the world, and they are all talents who are expected to become the world champion. I am just one step ahead," Ricardo said with a smile. "Inter Milan has a very good environment. I believe that I can find my status here. Keep improving."

Then Mancini and Facchetti were also interviewed.

Facchetti said: "Some of Ricardo's performances in the past two years are incredible. Who can believe that he is only 18 years old? Seeing him is like seeing another Ronaldo rising. Such a player, we In any case, we can’t miss it. We had contacted his agent last year, but we couldn’t reach an agreement due to various reasons, and this year we finally got what we wanted.”

"I'm sure he'll adapt well to Italian football and give the fans a great show, and I'm looking forward to seeing him with the Ronaldo-Adriano trident in Serie A and the Champions League. They It's unstoppable."

Mancini said: "I don't know much about Ricardo. I have watched some of his game videos and know that he is a talented player. But I can't promise anything yet. We still need to do more together. work, which has enhanced my understanding of him."

"I have a detailed plan for him. Signing him is more for the future. I will not let him play the main force rashly. He must impress me with his performance in training, just like other players. I will not Ronaldo's brother gave him the privilege."

"He is very good, but there are still many good young people. For example, Cassano who is currently playing in Rome. Young players need to adapt to a new environment. I hope Ricardo can find his form as soon as possible and show him The state of Brazil when they play."

"Italian Serie A is the most difficult league in the world. Here, Ricardo has to keep his feet on the ground, start from scratch, learn slowly and improve slowly."

When asked "Can Ricardo coexist with Adriano and Ronaldo", Mancini shrugged, "Of course they may play together, why not, as long as his performance is good enough, I will use his Features to adjust tactics. Remember the premise, he performed well enough."

It can be seen that he is not satisfied with this deal, but only because of Facchetti's face, he didn't say anything serious.

Although Mancini does not seem to be favored, Ricardo is not worried about his future at Inter Milan. Before joining Inter Milan, he studied Mancini's tactics for a while. Now Mancini likes to play offensive football. I hope that the forward can have a certain coping ability, can play the ball and end the game; I hope that the full-back can be fast, good in technique, strong in personal breakthrough ability, and can constantly cut inside and hit the ribs; The requirements for the midfielder are also very high. I hope the midfielder can attack and defend well, read the game quickly, and make the best judgment; and then put more emphasis on the attack of the full-back. When the full-back cuts in, the full-back must assist to occupy the side corridor .

Judging from these situations, Ricardo believes that he can gain a firm foothold in this Inter Milan team. Whether he plays as a forward or a winger, he can meet Mancini's needs.
