I AM the Football Star

Chapter 662 171: Ruthless and Heartless, Welcome Home, Sogel (Part 6)

The recently crushed Lazio with a five-nil defeat is the best example.

After losing the ultimate ambition, even if the secondary goals are achieved, the excitement is gone. Moreover, many people will become dejected and subsequently lose everything.

This is a trap!

Someone is deliberately targeting San Remo!

There are many possibilities because San Remo has offended too many people.

Martivini's competitors have completely lost hope, but taking it out on a small team like San Remo seems quite normal now.

Ah Ke and Nike have had a falling out with Lu Yang since the shoe contract, and after HXLT and the Golden Ball Award, these two sports brand giants see Lu Yang as a thorn in their side even more.

They can tolerate their players and teams not having miraculous achievements, but they cannot accept miracles coming from players and teams associated with other brands.

Curry and Under Armour are a perfect example of this.

Finally, on the AC Milan side, it's possible that they also tacitly approved or even promoted the transmission of this news.

Because it was leaked by their accompanying journalist, these media and teams have deep cooperative relationships, and can even be seen as the main outlet for the team's opinions.

AC Milan's actions are not difficult to understand.

Over on Real Madrid's side, the calls to sign Izalelt are getting louder.

AC Milan fans, from initially not believing and not wanting to believe, to having no choice but to believe.

Since they realize that Izalelt really might leave, even though they think the club might not keep him, the fans will still urge the team to retain Izalelt.

Once they start urging, there will be responses.

Originally, it was just a gesture, but after doing something, you find you simply cannot control yourself.

Emotions explode as a result.

So on the AC Milan side, the fans' demands are becoming stronger, even affecting the state of the team and the players.

The last league match and the just-concluded first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, AC Milan narrowly won both. But the fans at the scene unfurled banners saying "Keep Izalelt."

This could definitely dampen the enthusiasm of the other players who fought hard the entire match.

We played a great game for the whole match, and you didn't pay attention to our efforts at all?

For this reason, AC Milan must divert the fans' attention.

Even though this approach is not quite fair to San Remo, AC Milan has no other choice.

"Better them than us," as the saying goes, is a truth everywhere.

"Sogel, San Siro welcomes you home!"

"The genius central forward Sogel is finally going to showcase his talents at San Siro!"

"Looking forward to your excellent performance at San Siro next season!"

"The offensive pillar of AC Milan for the next ten years will officially begin to prop up Milan City from next season!"

"A sharp sword comes from honing! It's time for Sogel, this mighty sword, to shine!"

"Go Sogel! AC Milan loves you forever!"

AC Milan fans poured into San Remo's official platform and Sogel's personal platform, expressing their welcome to Sogel.

Because Sogel is their youth training, some even call Sogel the Crown Prince of AC Milan!

Also because Sogel was part of the San Remo miracle!

A member of the only team in football history to jump four leagues to the top tier and win the Italian Cup in the amateur league!

They hope Sogel will bring the miracle to AC Milan.

If not for these two buffs, you can see if other players loaned to the Second Division or even the Third Division would be welcomed by AC Milan fans.

They would only complain about the club running out of money and argue that buying anybody else would be better than recalling youth training mixing in lower leagues.

That's the reality.

...

Team training session.

Lu Yang entered the training ground in Morici's small car, but they found many fans gathered at the entrance.

They weren't wearing San Remo's red and white jerseys or blue and white jerseys.

They were wearing the red and black jerseys representing AC Milan!

They were AC Milan fans.

They came to San Remo to support their Crown Prince.

There was even an extravagant banner with "Welcome Home, Sogel!" written on it.

"They should write those banners next season," Morici said somewhat displeased, "At least for now, Sogel is still our player. Those banners will affect our team's morale."

"And our fans don't like their actions either."

Doing the right thing at the right time is called proper demeanor.

Right now, AC Milan fans' actions are clearly inappropriate.

In fact, even AC Milan finds these fans a headache.

Those who urge the team to keep Izalelt at all costs, they only think about their own excitement and don't consider whether the team can actually bear such costs.

Every team has these types of fans, but because they happen to be your fans, you can't be stern with them, so the best policy is to redirect them to cause trouble elsewhere.

The AC Milan executives are not being very decent, diverting trouble away with such skill!

Upon entering the locker room, Lu Yang found that the team's atmosphere was different from usual.

Before, everyone was always joking and laughing in the locker room, but today there wasn't much communication.

Especially, nobody was talking with Sogel.

Apparently, everyone had seen that banner.

Which made everyone displeased.

When it was time to go to the training field, Lu Yang pulled Sogel aside: "Wait a minute, I have a few words to say to you."

Sogel immediately stayed back.
