Chapter 18 Cellino's Concern
Boss, you are looking for me Salerno came to the chairman's office.
Although Cellino is the chairman of Cagliari, he is also a businessman and has his own company and business, so he is not resident in the club, so the director of Cagliari has great power.
I heard that there are a few good players in the youth team recently. It is not uncommon for businessmen like Cellino to buy teams. The reason why Serie A is so prosperous is because of the big investment of those bosses.
It is a pity that Italy is now in decline, the Italian economy is in ruins, and many bosses are on the verge of bankruptcy, which has caused Serie A to gradually go into a downturn, coupled with the unhealthy league and the use of unsightly methods by some people, so that in the near future Total decline.
However, Cellino has always been a calm boss, and his investment in the club is even more rational. It can even be said that the acquisition of the club is also an investment.
Hearing Cellino's words, an inexplicable color flashed in Salerno's eyes, because he was here to tell Cellino about Li Yi and the Cagliari U20. At this moment, Salerno still had a few things in his hands. The newspapers were all praised by the local media in Cagliari to Li Yi and the U20 team.
In fact, the media is helpless to do so. It is really that the Cagliari first team's record in Serie B is too miserable, just say yesterday's game, which is the twentieth round of Serie B.
Cagliari visited Venice, the world-famous water city, but this beautiful city brought only pain to Cagliari.
3:0, the home team is in front and the away team is in the back. At the Pierluigi Penzo Stadium, there is almost no resistance in Cagliari.
The game was scored not long after the start of the game. At the end of the first half, Venice was leading 2:0. Although Ventura made adjustments at halftime, Loria recklessly rewritten the game to 3:0 at the beginning of the second half. Completely ruined the game.
Before Salerno came, Pedzzoli and Ventura had been called, and Cellino had given Ventura an ultimatum.
At the same time, Pedzzoli also knew that he had let the boss down. Otherwise, after giving Ventura an ultimatum, he would definitely have Pedzzoli find a successor, but Cellino did not say such a thing.
The first team is terrible, but the youth team is flourishing, and the youth team has always been under the jurisdiction of Salerno. One of the big reasons why Li Yi can become the U20 head coach is because of Salerno.
Boss, you can read these newspapers. Salerno handed the newspaper in his hand to Cellino.
The cover of the newspaper is an oriental face. If you don't look at the sports meeting where the coach is wearing it at the moment, it is estimated that no one will think that the guy in front of him is actually a coach, and he is also a head coach.
This is the little guy you brought in? As for Li Yi, Cellino didn't see it, but he didn't listen to it. Some people even complained that Salerno was a crony, but he let an Asian, and he was still a young man. Twenty young people entered the coaching staff.
Yes boss, Bruce is the current head coach of this U20 team Salerno nodded.
Bruce? Bruce Lee? Hearing the name Bruce, it is estimated that the first thing the whole world thinks of is the Kung Fu Superstar, a generation of masters.
Yes, Bruce's father is a big admirer of Bruce Lee, so he named him Bruce, but it's a coincidence that this Bruce is also surnamed Lee. Salerno couldn't help thinking of Li Yi's father.
Front midfielder? Although the cover was taken by Li Yi when he was directing the team to win the game, it was an interview.
Yes, the fullback and the attacking midfielder are integrated. In Bruce's team, the Valbuena team's offensive initiator After watching Li Yi's interview with Cellino, he gave another report on Val Buena data.
This young man is a player that Bruce personally brought in from France, Salerno said.
How much? Valbuena's statistics are quite beautiful. He has averaged one assist per game. In addition to assists, Valbuena has four goals.
No money In fact, the reason why Cellino asked about the youth team was because at a cocktail party a few days ago, he had the same identity as Cellino, and a club president asked about the U20 players, and Valbuena was undoubtedly among them.
Oh, this guy is really vicious. Then he looked at the next newspaper, with an exaggerated and ugly scar on his face.
This is Ribery, the tactical core of the U20 team, and the best player. The whole Cagliari praises him as a treasure of Cagliari, and there are even rumors that a first-class team has been eyeing him Salerno is not joking, the Serie A team really paid attention to Ribery.
This is also introduced by Bruce After reading Ribery's data and the praise of the media, Cellino suddenly felt that this ugly face became extremely cute.
Yes, Lee has brought in three players in the past summer. All three came from France, all of them were brought in for free, and they performed very well. Although Lamy's performance was not as amazing as Ribery and Valbuena, But there is a fundamental difference between the two.
Ribery and Valbuena are both offensive players, while Lamy is a defensive player and a central defender. In terms of attention, offensive players have a natural advantage.
However, Italy is rich in defenders and is also good at training central defenders. Lamy may have made a lot of mistakes at the beginning, but recently, the 17-year-old French central defender has performed more and more steadily and well. The most important member of the U20 defense line.
At present, Li Yi's U20 team has won six consecutive victories. In the last round of the match against Venice, Cagliari U20 easily defeated Venice U20 with 3:0, just the opposite of the first team.
Li Yi came to the U20 and led the team to 11 games, of which they lost two games and won nine games. They performed very well. At the same time, they also cultivated potential young players such as Ribery and Valbuena. .
Not only Ribery, Valbuena and Lamy, but other players in the U20 team have also made great progress. The credit for this is actually self-evident.
However, Li Yi is not satisfied with the progress of these players, because Li Yi can see the potential of these players, so this improvement is nothing compared to the potential of the players themselves.
You must know that the potential of several people in the team has reached the A level. What does this mean? If the potential is turned into ability, they can go to the giants.
But in the current situation, these A-level potential young players will be at the Serie B level at most. Of course, if the original trajectory is used, some of them will continue to play, not to mention Serie B. It is a problem.
