"Didn't we stop it, or protest?"

Gao Han asked out his doubts.

Although Real Madrid is a wealthy family, Atletico Madrid is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Besides, Real Madrid is really not kind.

After hearing Gao Han’s question, Old Hill smiled miserably at him.

Everyone knows that Raul's turn to Real Madrid is the biggest regret in his life.

"How could it be that there is no?"

Gao Han had known this answer for a long time, because with the character of Old Hill, it was impossible not to resist.

"You know, why did we sign Torres so early and pay him a monthly salary?"

Gao Han was a little puzzled. He was clearly talking about Raul, so why did he jump to Torres?

Is this old man's thinking too jumpy?

But he shook his head, which was indeed a bit strange.

According to Torres himself, when he was fifteen, the club signed a contract with him.

"I am afraid that he will be poached and the incident that happened to Raul will reappear. That is only on the one hand, but on the other hand..."

Old Hill looked straight ahead, as if there were his memories there.

"...Because, Torres's family reminds me of Raul."

"The parents also came from a civilian family in southern Madrid. Their parents also had high hopes for him. In order to take care of him, their father did not have a stable job. The family was living a hard life and it was almost difficult to maintain."

Gao Han suddenly realized that this was not just Torres, but Raul at that time.

If you put your heart in mind, you are not the children of rich families. The family worked hard to train him to play football, so naturally I hope he can play in the professional league and make money to support his family.

As for hardcore fans, loyalty, and ideals, all of this have to stand aside in the face of supporting a family.

"I don't hate Raul at all. I understand that maybe he may not be able to be as high as he is at Atletico Madrid. I just feel very sorry, but at the same time I regard this transfer as a lifelong shame!"

Speaking of this, Old Hill was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"We tried every means and channels to keep Raul, and we almost convinced him and his father. At the same time, we also fought back against Real Madrid's actions. I swear they would pay the price until... Mendoza called me."

At this time, Old Hill looked full of resentment.

Mendoza, after Real Madrid, has another great chairman after Real Madrid, who has been in charge of Real Madrid for many years, has excellent connections and network in Spanish football and has amazing influence.

Old Hill didn't continue what he said on the phone.

Perhaps, he didn't want to mention it any more.

But Gao Han could imagine that it was definitely not a very pleasant negotiation, and in the end, Atletico Madrid must have suffered a secret loss. Old Hill could only watch Raul join the city's mortal enemy.

"However, this matter is not over yet!" Old Hill said again soon.

Not finished yet?

Gao Han was a little surprised.

"Two years later, Raul is already seventeen years old and has performed well in Real Madrid's youth training camp, but he still needs to wait for opportunities, but it also gives us a chance."

"We found Raul's father, and their whole family is the most loyal Atletico Madrid fans. We convinced them and promised to give Raul the main position of the first team and sign his first professional contract with him in his life. We hope he can return to Atletico Madrid."

In Spain, players must be at least 17 years old before they can formally sign professional contracts.

Of course, the youth team contracts signed before are not completely unlawful.

But because of this, there have been constant disputes between Spain and even foreign teams.

Old Hill took a deep breath and continued: "They were convinced by us, but Real Madrid convinced Raul, they promised to give him more first-team opportunities and sign a higher-paying professional contract, so he decided to stay."

"After that, Bardano gave him the chance to make his first team debut, and he also made great progress and became famous in one fell swoop."

Gao Han was a little silent.

From beginning to end, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong.

In professional football, excellent stars are the most valuable resources. In order to compete for these resources, the same thing is still happening even now.

Real Madrid has done it, and Atletico Madrid has done it too.

The giants defeat big teams, big teams defeat small teams, and small teams defeat low-level teams, or even amateur teams.

Professional football has always been pyramid-shaped.

But he could also understand the grief and anger in Old Hill's heart.

With the old man's personality, it was enough for him to endure this tone, but the media outside did not understand the specific situation, but spread rumors there, saying that Raul left Atletico Madrid because he disbanded the youth team and other Yunyun.

Especially as Raul's performance in Real Madrid gets better and better, and even becomes the leading star in Spain, the media has repeatedly slapped Old Hill in the face. Isn't this aggravating the old man's hatred?

With his personality, wouldn’t he regard Real Madrid as a mortal enemy forever?

But with his personality, such things will never come out to clarify.

But if you don't clarify, in the media's opinion, that's the default, so...

Gao Han couldn't help but sigh in his heart, things are impermanent!

I'm afraid that in those days, whether it was Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Raul's family, or even Raul himself, he never thought that he would have the status and achievements he has today.

Who wants to get it?

After talking about Raul's affairs, Old Hill was silent.

He looked ahead with his muddy eyes.

He probably isn't watching the sports city of Real Madrid, he wants to see Raul.

"My body is getting worse and worse, and my problems are getting more and more day by day. I have walked a few times in front of the gates of hell."

When Old Hill spoke again, his voice became weak.

At this moment, he was like a sick old man.

"I don't know how long I can hold on, maybe a week, maybe a month, or, luckier, a year, or even..."

Old Hill finally shook his head, "I dare not think about it."

At this moment, Gao Han saw fear in the expression on his face.

"To be honest, I have lived at this age and have never experienced any storms? I am not afraid of death, I am just afraid. When I died, Atletico Madrid fans accused me of saying that it was him who dragged down our team and he was the sinner of our team!"

Gao Han was stunned.

"I have done many things in my life, and many of them are definitely considered bad things, but I don't want to be a sinner at Atletico Madrid. I don't want to leave this world with guilt and regret."

Gao Han saw the corners of his mouth twitching constantly, as if he was crying silently, depressedly.

It was at this moment that Gao Han truly realized why he was so stubborn when it comes to choosing a head coach.

Perhaps, for him, it was not a head coach, not a season, but a lifetime!

It is also now that Gao Han’s heart, which was originally uncomfortable, suddenly became bright.

Not only did he not complain about Old Hill's belated choice, he was more relieved and grateful.

"Okay, old man, stop sensational, it's like a separation from life and death."

Gao Han calmed down and gently patted Old Hill on the shoulder.

"You, the most important thing now is to have a good rest, take good care of your health, and return to the team to win the championship. You go up and receive the trophy!"

Gao Han was so proud that Old Hill heard this, his originally turbid and dim eyes lit up immediately.

"I promise that as long as you believe me, I will help you bring Atletico Madrid back to its peak, or even reach a peak again!"

"You will definitely see that day!"

…………

…………

On the way back from the hospital, Gao Han didn't say anything.

He was thinking about a lot of things, including what Old Hill said just now, and the upcoming new season.

Atletico Madrid's peak moment was the double championship in La Liga and the Copa del Rey seasons.

It's really interesting to say that Atletico Madrid has won nine La Liga titles and nine Copa del Rey in history, but has never won a double championship except for the 95 to 96 seasons.

These two most influential champion trophys in Spain are so magically staggered.

As for European competitions, I have never won the Champions League and the League Cup, and there is only one European Winners Cup that has been cancelled and has little influence. If Gao Han remembers it correctly, he should be the second Winners Cup champion.

Compared with Real Madrid, the world-famous Real Madrid, the mortal enemy in the city, it is indeed much more dismal.

Not only honor, but even the team's finances are much worse.

The team's lineup needs metabolism and fills holes everywhere, but the transfer budget is not much. After introducing Deco, it only has a budget of 10 million euros. How many are enough to buy?

It seems that we have to start with a young player!
