Chapter 250 Albertini's Persuasion
When Zhang Yang heard Albertini talk about Camoranesi, he was a little silent. There are many players in the football world who change their nationality to other teams. What Zhang Yang is most familiar with is the Juventus star. After all, they all play in Serie A, and Zhang Yang has also played against Camoranesi.
In order to persuade Zhang Yang, Albertini also talked about something. During the 2006 World Cup in Germany, when the Italian team sang the national anthem before the match between Ghana, Camoranesi refused to sing the Italian national anthem. He said, "I can't sing the Italian national anthem. I have an Italian passport, but this is not enough to make me feel like an Italian." The implication is that he joined the Italian team for the World Cup, but then, Camoranesi also defended, "I am an Italian at the World Cup, so please don't ask if I want to represent Argentina."
After this incident was exposed by the media, although some media criticized Camoranesi, it did not cause much storm. Why? Camoranesi was a hero of Italy's victory in Germany's World Cup!
Argentine star Camoranesi, born in Buenos Aires, was Verona when he first came to the Serie A stadium. Then the Argentine joined Juventus. When Camoranei first arrived, it was also when Lippi rebuilds Juventus again. Because the team sent Zidane away, Lippi needed a team that had no core but had strong combat and running ability. Camoranesi was part of the Silver Fox plan. He had strong adaptability and quickly gained a place in the old woman and continued his side performance. Juventus also won the Serie A championship that year.
In fact, Camoraneci is not unloved of his motherland. He also has the possibility of joining the Argentine national team. However, because Argentine coach Bielsa did not express his strong desire for Mauro at that time, and Italy's 4-2-3-1 tactics are very suitable for his performance, Camoraneci finally chose "betrayal" his motherland. In the 2004 European Cup, the Argentine got the first opportunity to show himself on the big world stage. In 2006, when Italy won the fourth world championship trophy, Camoraneci was also an indispensable figure in the team.
In this sense, Camoranesi was successful. And quite successful.
It seems that Zhang Yang was moved by the example of Camoranesi. Albertini continued to persuade him. He even gave a few more examples similar to Camoranesi. The purpose was to tell Zhang Yang, 'It's really not a big deal to represent other countries. Look, so many stars come here like this...'
The second example is Deco, who is also related to Zhang Yang. Well, Deco and Zhang Yang’s agent are both Mendes. Well, it’s the ‘super agent’ who sits next to him and listens without saying anything.
Deco should be a "phenomenon" among Brazilian players. Born in Sao Bernardo do Campo, born on August 27, 1977, his career started from Sao Paulo. He landed in Portugal for a short stop in Corinthian in 1997. Deco was inconspicuous at that time. Although Benfica signed him, Deco could only participate in the Portuguese second-level league in Benfica's reserve team Alvica. Later in Porto, he still rented a small club Sargiros. Half a season later, the Brazilian was recognized by head coach Castro and was officially recalled to Porto. From 1999 to 2004, Deco gradually conquered Porto and the Portuguese Super League with his actions, and then conquered Mourinho and Scolari's hearts.
In February 2003, the Portuguese Ministry of Foreign Affairs handled the special affairs. Brazilian Deco, a 25-and-a-half-year-old Brazilian, joined Portugal in advance without completing all the regulations. The new Portuguese coach was Brazilian Scolari. He seemed to be waiting for the rice to be put into the pot. He couldn't wait to summon Deco to the Portuguese national team and let him make his debut in the friendly match between Portugal and Brazil on March 29. Then he participated in major events such as the European Cup and World Cup, and reached the semi-finals. He lost to Athens in the European Cup and ranked second. Deco gradually became a world-class midfielder.
Speaking of which, when Deco became a Portuguese nationality, Mendes also played a role behind the scenes, otherwise Deco would not have obtained a Portuguese passport so quickly.
Another example: Brazilian Deco played for Portugal, won the runner-up in the European Cup and reached the semi-finals of the World Cup.
Albertini then used the example of the German national team's main center Klose to persuade Zhang Yang.
Klose was born in Oberley, Poland, where he lived until he was 9 years old. Then he followed his parents to Germany. His father Joseph and his mother Barbara were famous players in the Polish hand and football team respectively. Klos can be said to be born in a sports family and laid a good foundation since childhood.
As Klos continued to show his football talent, Poland and Germany both hoped that he could join. In the end, Klos chose Germany. He said that playing football for Germany was his dream. Klos made his first appearance for the national team, which was in the World Cup qualifiers against Algeria. Klos scored two minutes before the final match to help the German team win. Four days later, he scored another equalizer in a key battle with Greece, ensuring the position of the main player of the national team.
In the 2002 World Cup, Klos became a hit and helped the German team to win the runner-up in the World Cup without being favored. He also became the winner of the World Cup Golden Boot Award. At present, he is still the No. 1 striker of the German team.
Another example: Polish Klose played for Germany and won the runner-up in the World Cup.
Well, then Albertini focused on taking the French team as an example and persuading Zhang Yang. Albertini pointed out that in the French team that helped France win the 1998 World Cup championship, Marklele and Vieira are both foreign players. Vieira is a Senegalist, Marklele is a Congolese. In addition, in this strongest French team in history, not only Vieira and Marklele are foreign players, but many players are not French in the real sense, such as Djokav is an Armenian; Toulam is a Guadrupe in the French Caribbean, and Lizarazu is a Basque in Spain.
Zhang Yang was a little silent. He added hot water to his cup and Albertini's cup, took a sip of tea, and did not speak. Albertini did not urge him, knowing that the young man is very conflicted now.
At this time, Mendes coughed, "Let me say a few words."
Zhang Yang looked at Mendes in surprise, he didn't know what his agent was going to say.
In fact, after guessing Albertini's purpose, Mendes has been considering the pros and cons of this matter. Fundamentally, Mendes supports Zhang Yang to accept Albertini's suggestions and play football on behalf of Italy, even if it is not Italy, it is another powerful team. As long as you can participate in the World Cup, you can win the World Cup championship!
Mendes considers Zhang Yang and his common interests. If Zhang Yang can win the World Cup, Zhang Yang's personal influence and glory will reach a new peak. As Albertini said, a player who has never participated in the World Cup will never be able to become a truly great player!
Mendes considers Zhang Yang and his own interests. Zhang Yang joined the Italian team and wore a blue robe to fight, which was definitely beneficial and harmless!
Zhang Yang looked at Mendes, wanting to hear what his agent was going to say.
"Zhang, in fact, in the Asian team, there are players from other countries who play football on behalf of Asian teams. You know, there is a Brazilian in the Japanese national team," Mendes said.
"Is there a Brazilian in the Japanese team?" Zhang Yang was stunned. He seemed to have some impression of this matter, but he didn't know much about it.
"Well, I'm talking about the Three Capital Lords." Mendes nodded and said when he saw Zhang Yang seemingly thought of something.
When Zhang Yang heard this name, he suddenly thought of this Brazilian. In fact, during the 2002 Korean and Japanese World Cup, Zhang Yang and his team were surprised when they saw such a Brazilian in the Japanese team. Therefore, they also had a certain understanding of this person's affairs.
Sanduzhu is a Japanese Brazilian. This midfielder nicknamed "Alex" has lived in Japan since high school and joined Japanese nationality in November 2001. Soon after that, Sanduzhu was selected for the Japanese national team. Well, to put it bluntly, players like Sanduzhu are everywhere in Brazil. He will never be selected for the Brazilian national team in his life and plays for Brazil's World Cup. Therefore, in order to play in the World Cup, he joined Japanese nationality.
On March 21, 2002, Sanduzhu represented the Japanese team in the first international match, in which the Japanese team defeated Ukraine 1-0. As a left forward, Sanduzhu had good speed and creativity in the frontcourt. Although there were many such players in Brazil, Sanduzhu did contribute to the Japanese team, especially the long-distance raid he launched from the backcourt, which made the opponent unable to defend. At the same time, Sanduzhu's ball control skills were also amazing. When necessary, he could even withdraw to the back line to participate in defense, and the effect was quite good.
The Sanduzhu is just a representative of Brazilian players joining Japanese nationality. Before the Sanduzhu, Ramos, born on February 9, 1957, joined Japanese nationality and had the experience of representing the Japanese national team. Inviting Brazilian players is an important part of Japan's attracting football talents, and this is also one of the main reasons why Japan can rise rapidly in Asia.
Mendes, a ‘super agent’, knows very well about these things in football, so he told Zhang Yang in detail the story of the Three Capitals. The implication is that joining other national teams is very common in Asia. In order to play in the World Cup, no one will blame you, no one will say anything.
After saying this, Mendes stopped talking. He even called and ordered another cup of coffee, and sat there leisurely, waiting for Zhang Yang to speak.
Moreover, Mendes seemed very sure. He felt that he had said so much and Albertini also said so much. Albertini, as the chairman of the Italian Football Association, was also very sincere. Zhang Yang should not hold on anymore. Such a great opportunity would be rejected by a fool.
