Chapter 605 Mad Bielsa
In the afternoon, it was Beckham's lunch break. Beckham chose to rest in the hotel. Countless fans were waiting under the Colleni Hotel, calling Beckham's name loudly. Beckham had no choice but to stick his head out of the window, waved to everyone, and showed his No. 7 jersey by the way.
Coming to Trapani, Beckham finally got his exclusive number back. In Real Madrid, the No. 7 jersey belongs to the captain Raul. It is of course unrealistic for Beckham to wear No. 7.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the Trapani Stadium was full of fans, just like in the Champions League. Tickets for Beckham's fan meeting are free to apply for, and fans don't need to pay a dime, but they must enter with tickets.
A few days ago, Trapani obtained the consent of Beckham and McAleone to start selling Beckham's No. 7 jersey, so many fans in the stadium today appeared in the stands wearing No. 7 jerseys.
"A few years ago, when Manchester United won the treble, I was taking over my hometown team Trapani. This team has a history of a hundred years. It has a long history and is one of the spiritual sustenances of us Trapani people."
"When I knew about Manchester United's treble miracle, I was also wondering when we Trapani could achieve the same honor as them?! When can we be worthy of David Beckham and let him run freely here!"
...
"Today, today! Today, we made all the dreams come true. We won the treble, we filled the historical gap, and we successfully introduced Beckham and made him a member of the team." Hugo is now on the platform built in the middle of the stadium, pointing heavily at the ground with his hand.
Hugo is actually the host, why is this? ! Why
This comes from his selfishness. He doesn't want Trapani fans to forget who shaped the Trapani team and who brought happiness to everyone. It's not these players or the head coach, but him, Hugo.
The crackling history is to tell everyone that you can't get anything without me.
So when Hugo finished speaking, a certain team of water army immediately shouted "Hugo, Hugo...", and other fans followed suit.
Hugo was very proud, and gestured under the spotlight, signaling everyone to be quiet "Okay, thank you! I'm not the protagonist, I guess you can't wait to see David!"
The fans' decibels immediately became much louder, and Beckham, who was waiting in the passage, was very excited, which showed how popular he was.
"Okay, let's welcome David Beckham with applause and cheers! Please welcome David Beckham!" Hugo shouted loudly.
"This guy is too hype!" Sorry, in Udine's hometown, the curious chairman of the professional league and the owner of Palermo were staring at the TV screen. As a successful businessman, he couldn't keep up with Hugo's rhythm at all.
Now curiously watching this meeting, he understood that Trapani had successfully shown his face in front of the world again, and the index of attracting attention would not be lower than that of the triple crown.
Thinking about Trapani's smooth road, Zamparini was indescribably jealous. When seeing others' success, few people would look for problems in themselves.
Zamparini didn't invest much, so of course he couldn't win the championship and attract stars to join!
Alas, I'm afraid he will be suppressed by Trapani in the future! Zamparini was actually a little pessimistic.
Zamparini is really an interesting old man. He made the wrong choice. He should compare with Purvirenti and Franza instead of Hugo. Doesn't he know that there is no comparability between him and Hugo? !
...
David Beckham's special appearance ceremony set a precedent and attracted strong attention from the world football. Trapani took advantage of the popularity again, but this is not the end. Trapani also arranged an Asian tour in the summer, and will go to Thailand, China and Japan to continue to use the popularity of the heartthrob to expand its influence.
There is still some time before the training camp for the new season. Beckham continues his vacation, and Trapani continues his difficult selection of coaches.
On the third day after Beckham's signing ceremony, Guardiola called Hugo.
"Pep, did you accept Alex's invitation?!" Hugo picked up the phone and asked. Morek told Hugo that he wanted to invite Guardiola, but Hugo was not optimistic about Guardiola. He felt that Guardiola had no experience and could not control the team, so he hoped that Pep's answer would be no.
"No, no, no, I thought about it for a long time. I don't think it's a good time now! Please believe me, I am definitely full of feelings for Trapani and you, but now, well, I must say that I am not ready!" Guardiola said hurriedly.
"Then you..." Hugo was puzzled. If he refused the position of coach, he could tell Morek, and there was no need to call him.
"I want to recommend a coach for the team. I am sure he is really excellent!" Guardiola said to Hugo.
"Haha, who do you recommend?!" Hugo smiled with interest.
"Mr. Bielsa, Marcelo Alberto Bielsa! You must have heard of his name!!"
"Him?!" How could Hugo not have heard of him? After all, Bielsa is a world-renowned head coach, commonly known as a crazy coach.
When Hugo heard the name, he was quite surprised. Why didn't he think of him? !
Bielsa is of course a famous figure. He once served as the head coach of Argentina and led Argentina to compete in the 2002 World Cup. However, he was so famous that he failed to lead Argentina to break through the group stage and became the most anticipated team of the year. Not even qualifying for the group stage, Bielsa had a difficult time, but the Argentine Football Association chose to renew Bielsa's contract, and Bielsa finally led Argentina to win the 2004 Athens Olympics.
After that, the madman disappeared and never appeared in the public eye again.
"He is a genius!" Guardiola recommended with great conviction. Guardiola has long wanted to become a coach. Before taking over the Barcelona youth team last year, he even made a special trip to South America to learn from Bielsa. It can be said that he has some experience. He borrowed the concept from Bielsa, but they are not friends, but Guardiola does appreciate him.
If he felt that he was not ready, Guardiola recommended Bielsa. Bielsa had been forgotten for too long, so Guardiola thought that no one mentioned him, and probably no one would think of him.
"I can be sure that he will definitely bring a difference to the team. He will be a good coach, a coach suitable for Trapani, and a coach who can satisfy your wishes!" Guardiola said that Hugo was embarrassed. !
Guardiola has a good idea of what kind of head coach Hugo wants.
"Is he really good? I haven't heard of him for a few days!" Hugo was doubtful.
"Why don't you meet him! Maybe you will change your mind." Guardiola tried hard. He admired Bielsa. Bielsa had had experience in Europe before but was not successful. Guardiola is the same. This lunatic proved himself. .
To be honest, there is no better stage than Trapani. The value and strength of this team are among the best in the world, and the personnel structure is also reasonable. The only thing worth worrying about may be the mental motivation of this team. Just now After winning the Triple Crown, maybe the players will slack off.
"Okay, then talk to him!" Hugo was finally persuaded.
Making a prompt decision, Hugo entrusted Guardiola to help contact Bielsa, and Hugo informed Morek and the others that they were going to have a three-court trial of Bielsa to find out his background.
When Guardiola got in touch with Bielsa on the phone, Bielsa actually had an invitation in front of him. After three years of dormancy, the Chilean Football Association invited Bielsa to come out.
