Santiago Segurola was sitting in front of the computer screen in his office. He was preparing an exclusive comment about the Spanish national team after winning the World Cup. Although half a month has passed, it seems a bit late. The newspaper has repeatedly urged him to make an appointment, but he has been delaying it until now.

Of course, he didn't have to worry about someone making things difficult for him with the delay, unless he was willing to cause trouble for himself.

He is the deputy editor-in-chief of Marca. Although in name, Eduardo Inda is the editor-in-chief of Marca and the number one powerhouse, everyone who is familiar with Marca knows that Eduardo Inda is not familiar with football, so after he became the editor-in-chief of Marca in 2007, he immediately dug up Santiago Segurola, who was the top leader in sports news in the National News, to Marca for a large sum of money, so he was the first place in the Marca football business power list.

With more than 20 years of rich experience in football media, Santiago Segurola has always had a very sensitive sense of news. He is not very old and is only in his early fifties. He is very good friends with many active stars and has a very broad news channel, which makes him considered by many people to be the best football commentator in Spain.

But just after Spain won the World Cup, almost all the media around the world, especially the Spanish media, rushed forward and reported crazy about the Spanish national team's every move. However, Santiago Segurola did not do this, but chose to postpone it. It took half a month before he decided to start taking action.

But his entry point is obviously different from all other media reporters. When everyone was performing a round of vigorous praises to Casillas, Iniesta, Fabregas and others, he chose to enter the event from a perspective that others could not understand, Raul Gonzalez.

A very interesting person, because he was completely forgotten by everyone in this grand event

This was absolutely impossible in the past, because Raul was almost a symbol of football in this country. His elegant and spiritual football style once conquered all Spanish fans, and even the picky Catalan fans had to admit Raul's strength and style.

But I don’t know when it started, Spanish fans began to doubt Raul, which was always happening in the past. Fans of this country always tried to doubt their best players. If it was because Spain had never made any achievements in major competitions and lacked confidence, then now, on the one hand, it is because of Raul’s so-called deterioration, on the other hand, it is because of the strong rise of Barcelona players, as well as the European Cup and World Cup champions.

When celebrating, when everyone is happy, people always don’t like to mention those bad things and people.

Santiago Segurola gave his comment a very controversial name, "Rauer's spirit gave birth to the Spanish champions", and the subtitle was, "The greatest and most precious player in the football world".

It is obvious that once such a comment is published, it will definitely cause an uproar. Many fans will definitely include Segurola in the Raul Party and Real Madrid. Marca has always been a firm Real Madrid faction, and Segurola is also one of Raul's very good friends, so these will become evidence of others' attacks and doubts about his comment.

The beginning of the page on the computer screen is completely inconsistent with the title.

“Raul may not be a good professional player.”

"He doesn't have the lightning speed that modern attackers should have, nor does he have amazingly strong physical qualities. He doesn't have the flexibility of some small players to move and flick in the narrow range of the penalty area. He is also not a small penalty area killer known for his efficiency, like Van Nistruei."

"He has many flaws and quite a few shortcomings. Even if it weren't for his name Raul, I believe no one would believe that he had been with Ronaldo, Shevchenko, Henry, Van Nistrui and other top strikers who were all in Europe. No one would believe that he could enter the temple of Real Madrid with Real Madrid's legends such as Distiffano, Puscas, Hento, Piri, Butragno, Sanchis, and Jero."

"In the past few years, people have been discussing Raul's overratedness, always trying hard to find all evidence, hoping to bring Raul, who has been overrated by the media and some fans in the past, back to a position that suits him, such as the most uninspiring captain in Real Madrid's history."

"In the past many years, I have always refused to comment on Raul and refused to answer the topic of commenting on Raul. This is not because I am very close friends with Raul, but because I know that if I say the truth, I will be overwhelmed with booing and verbs, but if I lie, I will be sorry to my friend, and a person who devotes his career to Real Madrid and Spanish football."

"But now, after Spain won the European Cup, it won the World Cup again, but everyone chose to forget Raul. I must stand up and say something for him."

"He is the most specific, content and most precious professional player in the history of Spanish football."

It was obvious that when he was writing this, Santiago Segurola stopped because he was smoking a cigarette, but at the same time, he closed his eyes and searched everywhere in his mind for all the memories of Raul.

For example, when did Raul enter the eyes of the world?

Oh, by the way, he was on Saturday, 5th, 1994, on Saturday, Saturday, in the tenth round of La Liga, Real Madrid led by Bardano faced the city's rival Atletico Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium. Raul scored his third goal in the game, which was also the first goal of the seventeen-year-old Raul in Real Madrid's second game.

It was a powerful shot outside the penalty area

Thinking of this, Segurola stretched out his finger, lit the cigarette in the crack of his fingers, and smiled. If those people saw Raul's goal again, they would never doubt Raul's power again, because that goal was full of a young man's persistence and pursuit of goals, games and future.

Another shot that impressed Segurola was on May 1st of 2019. Real Madrid defeated Barcelona away with goals from Zidane and McManaman in the first leg. After returning to the Bernabeu, facing Barcelona, ​​which was determined to counterattack, Raul scored a powerful shot in the 43rd minute of the first half, suppressing Barcelona's momentum.

There is also the goal of the goalkeeper who scored the goal after 60 meters in the UU Champions League final, facing Valencia, and the goal of the goal against Da Gama in the Toyota Cup, and...

It was strange that more and more thoughts surged into Segurola's mind, and finally frozen in the last season, on the 10th day of the month, when Real Madrid was visiting Tenerife in the Canary Islands. Raul scored Tenerife in stoppage time, adding icing on the cake to Real Madrid's away victory.

After that, Raul never played for Real Madrid again.

For some reason, when this goal came to mind, Segurola couldn't help but think that it would be really interesting if this was Raul's last goal for Real Madrid.

You should know that in the years before Raul's debut, the team Real Madrid hated the most may not be Atletico Madrid or Barcelona, ​​but Tenerife, because it was Tenerife's last round of the league for two consecutive seasons. When Real Madrid had an absolute advantage and could win the championship as long as they did not lose, they defeated Real Madrid in the last round of two seasons and gave Barcelona two La Liga championships.

Then Real Madrid learned from his mistakes, and Chairman Mendoza decided to reorganize the team and invested a lot of money to attract Tenerife's head coach Bardano, as well as main midfielder Redondo. In addition, Raul's emergence replaced veteran Butragno, and Real Madrid ushered in a period of revival, so Raul and Tenerife seem to have no connection, but in fact they have a deep connection.

Segurola was thinking more and more, and his thoughts were becoming more and more complicated. From Raul to Jero, to Morientes, to Guti, to many people.

Sometimes, it's really a very troublesome thing to remember.

Just as Segurola was in a state of not knowing how to continue writing, and when the inspiration was a little exhausted, the phone he placed on his desk suddenly rang, and a photo of Raul appeared on the screen of Zeus's phone, which was more disgusting than the eggplant gesture. Every time he saw this photo, Segurola couldn't help but want to laugh.

He even felt that this should be the photo that Raul wanted to delete the most in his life, and it was also the photo he was most proud of.

"Hello, I'm Santiago, I'm very busy now. Please leave a message if you have anything to do." Although Segurola is middle-aged, he is quite lively. He often claims to be a young man in his 20s and is very compatible with anyone.

His personality makes him very popular in Spain and even in the European football circle. Even the Barcelona players who are opposed by Marca have a good relationship with him.

Raul's voice came from the other side of the "San Diego" phone, but it was different from the past.

In the memory of Santiago or Segurola, there are huge changes in Raul's voice. If it is divided by time, it is based on 2003. Raul's voice before 2003 was very lively and cheerful, and he always laughed. Whether it was making his own jokes or making others jokes, he liked to laugh.

But after 2003, the smile seemed to have disappeared from Raul's face. He spoke, did things, and even talked to his friends, seriously, in a very serious tone, as if he was reading a press release to reporters.

Everyone can understand Raul's changes and understand why Raul had such changes, but no one said anything, because in the eyes of many Raul's friends, if they say too much, in the end, Raul, as the captain of Real Madrid, will only make it difficult for Raul, as the captain of Real Madrid.

Raul used to be very serious and serious, but now he is not only serious and serious, but also a little bit of sad.

"Hey, man, what's wrong?" Segurola asked strangely.

The phone was a little silent, but only a few seconds, "I'll give you a scoop, the last time

Segurola on the phone suddenly felt sour and he felt something was wrong, "Don't...don't joke with me, tell me, what the hell is going on? What's the scoop?"

There was another silence, but this time it took a little longer, and then Raul slowly said: "I have decided to leave the Bernabeu. You can post it in the Maca newspaper tomorrow. I have already negotiated with the management. They agreed to leave the team freely. You know, this is what they have been wanting to do in the past year."

Segurola heard Raul's laughter, but only a few laughs, which looked more like a kind of ridicule and sarcasm to himself. Perhaps Raul wanted to express one thing. Others always wanted to drive you away, but you kept it alone. In the end, you still had to leave? And in the end, I couldn't go to the South Africa World Cup.

"Man, don't joke with me, today is not April Fool's Day, OK?" Segurola felt that this would be big news.

But no one knows what attitude will Spanish fans take, and maybe they will be indifferent, just like when Morientes left Real Madrid. After all, fans will always be forgetful

"You know, I haven't been kidding for a long time." Raul said something that made Segurola's nose feel sore again.

Yes, he hasn't joked for many years.

So, this is true

"When did it be decided?" Segurola was used to this kind of breakup and reunion, so he was a little numb.

When Guardiola was leaving Barcelona, ​​he also called him. It was interesting to say that he and Raul are in a situation now? Sometimes he even wondered if there is such a gene in DNA in the core of the Spanish?

"The night they got the Hercules Cup," Raul said lightly. Perhaps he was no longer sad when he said this.

"Have you thought about where to go?" Segurola asked with concern.

Raul hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "The final agreement has not been made, but Tottenham Hotspur contacted me and his agent through Maloro. Ye Qiu also called me personally. I felt their sincerity, and... Tottenham Hotspur's jersey is also white."

Segurola on the phone could no longer speak. He did not cry or tears because he was numb to such things. But for some reason, he felt deeply touched and sad when he heard the news.

Why does this have to be done?

Barcelona forced Guardiola away, and Florentino forced Bosque and Jero away. Now, it's Raul's turn. Will it be Puyol's turn and Casillas in the future?

Is it necessary to do this? Can you continue to succeed by doing this?

No one has an answer to this question, as if no one will ever know what will happen tomorrow.

"Maloro is discussing some salary details with Tottenham Hotspur on my behalf, and this matter must be kept confidential for the time being." Raul reminded him on the phone, saying that he was willing to confess to Segurola, which has shown enough trust.

Maloro is a famous agent in Spain, which is really interesting and funny to say.

When fans talk about agents now, the first thing they think of is the extremely glorious Jorge Des, but they didn't know that Maloro's influence and power are not inferior to Mendes at all. The only difference is that the Portuguese often appear in newspapers.

Sometimes, although Segurola is a media person, he is also very pitiful and sad for the fans, because they are always manipulated by the media and newspapers, they always lack their own independent judgment and thinking ability, they will never find the truth and result of things, and will always live in the fog.

After hanging up Raul's phone, Segurola suddenly felt his inspiration burst out, and thoughts surged. He quickly rushed to the front of the computer, put his hands on the keyboard, and began to typing on the exclusive comment he had been brewing for a long time.

Raul is leaving. As Raul's friend and at least a bit conscientious media person in Spain, he feels that he is necessary and must say a few words for Raul. Even if these words will cause him a lot of trouble after he says them, he feels that he must do this.

It's strange to say that I was in a state of Caven just now, but now Segurola has quickly completed a refined exclusive comment, and the lyrics are very sharp, the evidence is sufficient, and it is a very convincing comment.

After completing this comment, Segurola pressed the internal phone number on his desk and called the secretary desk code name, "Let Castillo come in." The latter is a famous reporter of Marca.

Castillo quickly knocked on the door and entered the deputy editor-in-chief's office. He was very respectful because everyone knew that the young deputy editor-in-chief was a veteran in this industry and the number one power-oriented figure in the newspaper.

"I have a front page headline tomorrow, but I need you to interview a few people, remember, keep it confidential." Segurola solemnly reminded Castillo, who nodded and agreed upon after listening to the teachings.

So soon Segurola made some evidence, including Maloro's office in Madrid, including Real Madrid management and head coach, and Raul's agent, but he did not mention Tottenham Hotspur.

"By the way, help me hand over this manuscript. Remember, don't touch a word except for typos." Segurola's last warning was very harsh, which surprised Castillo and repeatedly promised to convey it to the editor. He must be thinking in his heart what kind of manuscript it was, which made the deputy editor-in-chief so serious.

In fact, this article, as well as the front page headlines of Marca, caused a stir in Spain and even the entire European football scene the next day, and also caused huge controversy.

The controversy is about whether Raul has that high value to Spain and Real Madrid?

The sensation is their news, and it has also been confirmed by Real Madrid that Raul will leave the team

But no one revealed who Raul's new owner is
