I AM the Football Star

Chapter 802 - 195: Just Call Me Xiaota

The damage to Inter Milan’s players and coaches is enormous.

Moreover, Talista’s terrible relationship with the fans means that once he doesn’t care, he’ll immediately clash with them.

When Inter Milan’s performance is good, people can still understand the team.

But once the performance deteriorates, the fans’ dislike for Talista extends to the team, complaining why the team doesn’t deal with this person.

But how can fans fully understand the team’s difficulties?

So, Inter Milan went crazy selling Talista this summer.

They’ve laid their cards on the table; they just want to deal with this bastard now!

But...

Nobody wants him!

With Inter Milan’s previous bitter experience, who would want to be the second fool?

Sign Talista and then beg him to leave the next year?

Nobody has such masochistic tendencies.

This, in fact, reflects a significant portion of "rogues" in society.

Especially in structured units.

Being a diligent and sincere worker, you’re actually hindered, and even if you suffer, you can only miserably digest it yourself.

Leaders won’t remember your diligence and effort, they easily ignore you, and might even reprimand you, tossing blame your way.

However, those who fall out completely and refuse to listen to anyone... though they have no prospects for promotion, nobody dares to provoke them, and even leaders sometimes have to consider their feelings, making sincere people bear more.

In the end?

Sincere people don’t get promotions or raises, nor higher positions.

And they live even worse than those rogues.

This world can be so unfair at times, and those within the system should know this well.

Talista is that kind of rogue in the football world.

And he’s the type with immense capability and influence.

This forces the "leaders" to think about actually paying to get rid of this big troublemaker.

Talista, brought in for 18 million euros, only played for a year, yet no one is willing to take over.

But Inter can’t continue keeping Talista, the only thing they can do is... extremely extravagantly buy out Talista...!

It’s outrageous!

This kind of operation simply shows that the management is trash to a certain extent.

Hence, the tug-of-war between Inter Milan’s top brass and Talista began.

Initially, Inter hoped Talista would pay to buy out his contract.

Meaning, you Talista give us six million, then get lost, and find your next club.

Your next club can pay this money for you.

If Talista can find a next club, they’d surely be willing to pay the six million.

After all, Talista’s transfer fee was originally 18 million euros last year.

It might have been slightly overpriced at the time.

But over the entire season, Talista demonstrated his worth. Without those ridiculous issues, he wouldn’t be sold for less than 25 million euros, let alone 18 million.

How is this Talista any worse than Bayern’s Pavovsky?

What a joke!

But Talista also has a tough personality, trying to take advantage of him?

Don’t even think about it!

What’s it mean for me to pay out of my own pocket to buy out my contract?

I don’t care if the next club pays or not; I’m not going to let my name be tarnished.

You pay the six million to buy out my contract!

Now you’re the ones afraid of me!

I’m not afraid of you!

Inter’s top brass really feel helpless about this!

This guy is so shameless!

Are you saying we have to spend 18 plus 2 plus 6, a total of 26 million euros on you?

And only use you for a year?

When broken down, you’re more expensive than Izalelt!

Is that possible?

Finally, after a tug-of-war, Inter finally reached an agreement with Talista.

The two parties simply split, with the following contracts voided, and neither owes the other any severance!

Of course, Talista must agree to Inter that before he finds his next club and it’s announced, this matter cannot be disclosed publicly; it must be handled quietly.

To avoid making Inter a joke out there.

As long as Talista stays silent, even if the matter is exposed, the hype will quickly be replaced by other news.

After all, with so many transactions in this transfer window, nobody’s hype lasts more than three days unless you’re Izalelt.

In fact, Inter’s idea isn’t bad.

They know for sure that Talista surely won’t find a next club.

It’s estimated that around the end of the window, some lower league teams might be willing to take Talista.

Inter can at least guarantee that no top-tier club wants Talista because they’ve asked every team, and if there was any chance, they wouldn’t be releasing Talista for free.

Even Atletico Madrid, known for their combative style and toughest reputation, isn’t interested in Talista. Where else can he go?

Meanwhile.

At the offices of Atletico Madrid in La Liga.

They’re having a discussion about the transfer of Talista.

"Are we really going to sign this player? His issues are pretty serious."

"Don’t worry, that’s exactly the kind of player we want. He’s got Atletico Madrid written all over him in his bones! He fits us perfectly, and his playing style is just what we need!"

"But what about team cohesion?"

"We’ll offer him a decent salary. Inter Milan’s issues aren’t just Talista’s fault; many people are fooled by appearances. The hefty contract they gave Finger is the real trigger. You’ll see, Inter’s salary problem won’t last long."
