Chapter 1486 New Aid and Old Friends
"...Thank you all for your support and encouragement. I have been a supporter of Racing Amsterdam since I was a child and will always be in the future...I will always remember the time I spent here..."
Danny Drew said goodbye to his teammates in the locker room at the training base.
Both Madrid Pirates and Amsterdam Athletic Club have made official announcements that he is about to leave here and go to Madrid to undergo a medical examination. As long as he passes the physical examination, he will officially become a player for Madrid Pirates.
Drew went up one by one to high-five or hug his teammates and say goodbye to them.
When he walked up to Chen Xingyi, he smiled and said to Chen Xingyi: "Now I can finally talk to Hu, so do you have anything you want me to bring to him?"
Chen Xingyi shook his head: "No. Good luck to you, Danny. You went to a bigger stage..."
Drew heard the envy in his tone, so he patted him on the shoulder: "Sooner or later you will go to a bigger stage, Xing. You have the ability."
Looking at Drew's serious expression, Chen Xingyi forced out a smile: "Thank you, Danny."
"Goodbye, Xing." Drew didn't say much, said a brief farewell and walked to the next teammate.
"Goodbye, Danny."
Chen Xingyi watched Drew say goodbye to his teammates in the locker room one by one. His teammate will bear the title of "the most expensive center back in the world" and go to the Spanish giants Madrid Pirates to chase the highest honor in Europe. This is a chance to find The great adventure of One Piece Treasure.
But he may fail, and his worth of 98 million euros may become a huge burden that crushes him.
The future is full of unknowns.
But no matter what, it is better than staying in the small port of Amsterdam Athletic.
Chen Xingyi really envied Drew and envied him for being able to go out.
In fact, when Chen Xingyi was still in China, he felt that he was satisfied to be able to play for Atlético Amsterdam.
As a result, after playing for two seasons in Amsterdam, he started to make moves again and felt that he could no longer satisfy himself by staying in Amsterdam.
He wants to go to the five major leagues and go to a wider world.
The only advantage of playing at Sporting Amsterdam is that you can basically participate in European competitions every season, either the Champions League or the Europa League.
Unlike Brother Huan, Zhou Zijing, and Wang Guangwei, the three of them not only have to try their best to participate in the European war, but also pray for good luck.
Last season, except Wang Guangwei, all overseas players participated in the European competition. But this season, Zhou Zijing, Huan Ge and Wang Guangwei have no European competition to play.
Is it a top team in the second-tier European leagues that has a chance to participate in the European competition, or is it a mid-range team in the five major leagues that can play in the competition, but may not be able to participate in the European competition stably?
Chen Xingyi will not do such multiple-choice questions.
Of course he hopes to join a team in one of the five major leagues that can stably compete in European competitions.
He will work hard towards this goal.
As for the giants in the five major leagues... Chen Xingyi doesn't want to do that now.
Hu Lai has really established a foothold in the giants, and Luo Kai's position in Tramed is not very stable. Sometimes he can play in consecutive games and start, but sometimes he will sit on the bench for several games in a row. .
It seems that even though Luo Kai has tried his best, he still can't guarantee that he will be the main player in a wealthy club like Tramed. Moreover, Tramed is still a wealthy family that is already in some decline.
Like it or not, Hu Lai is now one level above all of them... no, maybe two or three levels.
※※※
When Hulay took a day's rest at home, he returned to Casa, the Pirates' training base.
Here, as an Olympic champion, he not only received a grand welcome from his teammates and coaches, but also met old friends.
"Ismail!"
Hulay opened his arms and gave Kamala a big hug.
"I'm so glad you're here!"
he said in French.
Kamala, who was hugged by him, asked in his ear: "Do you still need me, Hu?"
"Of course! Ha! Of course! I will always need you!"
Hu Lai's words were definitely not polite, he was really happy.
Kamara's arrival can enhance the team's strength on the wing. At the same time, the tacit understanding he developed with him in Leeds City can also help Kamara give him more assists.
Now with Kamara, Hulay believes that he will definitely score more goals in the new season than last season.
Hulay received really little support from the team's right wing last season.
As long as the opponent chokes the left wing and the center, Hu Lai will not be able to receive any decent threatening passes in the penalty area.
Hearing Hu Lai's answer, Kamala also had a bright smile on her face: "That's why I'm here!"
"Well done!"
Hulay patted Kamala hard on the back and said in French.
He was not afraid that what he said would cause dissatisfaction among other players in the team.
Silverio, the team's right midfielder who was originally unstable, left the team this summer with a transfer worth 20 million euros.
He also knew that if he continued to stay at Madrid Pirates, he would be completely reduced to a substitute. This will have a negative impact on his position in the Portuguese national team.
So he decided to transfer and leave to a team that could give him a stable chance to play.
The strength may not be as strong as that of the Madrid Pirates, but he can play in the game, which is much better than being a substitute for the Pirates.
After greeting Kamara, Hulay met Danny Drew who had just reported to the team.
The Dutchman greeted him with a smile: "Hi, Hu!"
Hu Lai was a little surprised: "Huh? Are you not mute?"
Drew couldn't laugh or cry: "You have used this joke before!"
Hu Lai was even more surprised: "When was it used?"
"Last season in the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals, when I greeted you after the game, you asked me if I was mute..." Drew explained.
Hu Lai suddenly understood, then nodded and said: "Very good, it seems that you are really not mute!"
Drew grinned, speechless.
He suddenly felt that even if he was not his opponent, he would not want to talk to Hu Lai...
Seeing Drew like this, Hu Lai asked: "I'm curious, Danny. Why do you prohibit talking to me during the game?"
Drew asked: "Why don't you know?"
"No. I mean why do you know?"
Drew betrayed Little Xingxing very simply: "Xingxing told me in the beginning, he told me to wear earplugs when I play with you, otherwise I will be distracted and lose the ball..."
"Damn, that bitch Little Star!" Hu Lai first angrily scolded Chen Xingyi, then hugged Drew with a smile, "It's okay now, just say whatever you want, you don't have to worry about losing the ball."
< br>
"So as your opponent, talking to you will really lose the ball?" Drew keenly captured the key information in Hu Lai's words.
"Of course that's nonsense!"
Hulay let go of Drew and turned to the next new aid, Milos Vukovic, who was already waiting for him with a smile on his face.
"Hi, Hu. I had an interview in Germany last year, and the reporter asked me a question. He asked me who I wanted to collaborate with most, and I answered you." Vukovich said to Hu Lai in German, and he seemed to He wasn’t worried that Hu Lai wouldn’t understand him at all. He obviously knew a lot about Hu Lai’s situation, including the fact that he was a “language master”. "I really want to work with you."
Sure enough, Hu Lai also responded in German: "That's great, I'm also eager to cooperate with you, Milos!"
Hu Lai was not flattered, but seemed very calm.
With his current ability and status, it is normal for players to express their willingness to play with him.
After all, he is already a player who can be compared with Melli and Kabangka.
I still have this bit of confidence.

While Hulay met his new teammates in the locker room, the Pirates coaching staff was also in the office discussing Hulay's physical report.
"Everything is normal. His body is like a car that has just been serviced and filled with oil, and is ready to hit the road at any time." Nick Jeter, the team's medical director, introduced the situation to all the coaching staff. "There is no fatigue, no injuries, and his physical condition is so good that one wonders whether he has played six games in seventeen days..."
Fitness coach Diego Morales also echoed: "Yes. If I hadn't really watched his performance in the Olympics, I would have had this doubt. There is no problem with his physical fitness at all. If It must be said that if there are any problems, they are caused by long distance travel and time difference, and they can be eliminated quickly. ”
Head coach Parotti sighed: "We were once again frightened by Hu Chao's physical recovery ability...but this is a good thing for us. Although he is unlikely to start in the game against Loggia United, we can Put him in the squad and let him come on as a substitute.”
"I agree," said first assistant coach Jesus Valentin
Second assistant coach Enzo Nacher also nodded: "Agree."
Team medical director Nick Jeter and strength and conditioning coach Diego Morales both agreed.
In the face of Hu Lai's superior physical fitness, no one questioned or worried.
What the coaching staff needs to worry about is actually not Hulay, but new players such as Vukovic, Kamara and Danny Drew.
They may not have Hu Lai's super adaptability, and they may not be able to quickly cooperate with new teammates.
Although Hulay and Kamara have worked together in Leeds City, Kamara has not cooperated with other teammates in advance.
Although Vukovic knows Hulay well, he is not familiar with other teammates.
Danny Drew is a central defender, and central defenders especially need tacit understanding with other teammates.
Whether it is them or the Madrid Pirates players who are already on the team, they all need to get familiar with and get along with each other, which requires a process.
This problem has actually been exposed in the first round of the league.
At that time, Danny Drew hadn't transferred yet. Let's not talk about it. Vukovic and Kamara were both starters, but their performance was very average. Otherwise, why would they face a team like Valero? Didn't win?
Yes, Madrid Pirates are a wealthy team, while Valero is a mid-to-lower team. But this is the way the football world is. No one stipulates that wealthy teams can definitely defeat weak opponents. Otherwise, what else is there to watch in a football match? It's better for everyone to play with each other and digitize the strength of their players before the game. Whoever has the higher number wins without having to play the game.
A real football match is not a football game. If you replace players with stronger statistics, the team's performance and results will be better.
The team is a whole, and players need to work together. If there is a problem anywhere, the machine will not run smoothly.
For the Pirates' coaching staff, Hulay's return only gave them a slight relief, but it did not completely solve the problem.
Solving problems requires means and time.
