Chapter 62: Pick the gourd in advance

Before Aldridge was ready to leave for Spain, he finalized a transfer in London.
The offer of £200,000 last season in the Premier League relegation team Norwich's young player Danny Mills.
After bargaining, the final price was fixed at 300,000 pounds.
Danny Mills is 19 years old and can play at the center and right backs. In order to increase the thickness of the team bench, Aldridge must ensure that there are two or three players in the same position, like Lucas Neal, These 18-year-old players like Zambrotta can’t expect them to work full season, not because they can’t do it, but they will exhaust them and seriously affect their future development, and healthy competition will also help them not to They will be complacent because they have become the main force early, and maintaining a sense of crisis can sound the alarm for them.
In the windy and beautiful Spain, Aldrich and Andrew came to Spain together and split their troops. He came to Tuilia, a small town in the city of Greo.
In an unprosperous neighborhood, Aldridge in a suit and leather shoes and a pair of sunglasses is very eye-catching. He travels according to the address of the note in his hand like a map. The closer to the destination, Aldridge finds the buildings around him. The landscape is getting closer to the slums. Of course, this is a portrayal of the contrast between the rich and the poor. Compared with the neat and clean buildings and beautiful neighborhoods, even if it is not the lowest income group in the neighborhood, I am afraid that there is no word for abundance. .
Before coming to a bungalow, Aldridge took off his sunglasses and took a closer look at the small house. He sighed and said in secret: Many football players with high incomes in the future, but their family life before becoming famous Strained.
It was this opportunity that gave Aldrich the opportunity to take advantage. He sometimes asked himself whether it was mean to do so, but he could not always convince himself to give up.
Obviously have the opportunity to dig a golden mountain, who cares about the eyes of others?
Moreover, he is not an unscrupulous businessman, he can feel at ease.
After finishing some clothes, Aldridge knocked on the door of the house.
"you are?"
It was a middle-aged man who opened the door, not to mention sloppy, but with obvious color.
Aldridge took out his business card and handed it to the other party, smiling in Spanish: "Hello, my name is Aldridge Hall. I am from London. I am a football club owner and head coach. I treat your son Very interested, I hope he can join my team."
The middle-aged man was shocked, and the hand holding the business card shivered slightly. It was incredible: "David? David is only 14 years old. How much money will you give him for the contract?"
In many parts of the world, Africa, South America, and even Europe, playing football is the way to change the destiny of families in the bottom society. If you can play professional football and become a star, it will be enough to change the shabbyness of the entire family and even the family. Wen's genius, before being covered by a spotlight lantern, did not have the guts to bargain. Whoever gave more money would play football.
Aldridge walked into the narrow house and sat on the creaking single sofa.
At this time, a pair of mother and son also appeared in the living room. A 14-year-old boy stood in front of his mother, his mother's hands around his neck, as if afraid of being robbed of his flesh.
Aldridge smiled and looked at the young man, convinced that he had not found the wrong person. He turned to the middle-aged man and said, "His name is David Villa Sanchez, right?"
The middle-aged man nodded and turned back to beckon his son. As a miner's father, he was very nervous. He asked Villa to say hello to Audridge.
Villa opened his mouth and didn't seem to know how to call Audridge. He could only say hello in the end.
Aldrich reached out to tell Villa to sit down and chat together. Villa turned his head and looked at his father. When he saw his father nod, he sat down next to his father.
Aldrich took a stack of documents from his briefcase and handed it to Villa and his son. Sincerely said: "My club is called Millwall, maybe you have never heard of this team before, this is the team The brief introduction inside, by the way, next season, my team will play in the English Premier League."
Villa and his father glanced at the documents in hand, most of which were the introduction of club facilities with illustrations, including the Lion’s Cave Stadium, the club training venue, internal equipment, and some statistics of last season's games.
Villa took it very seriously, his eyes full of longing, and his father was a little bit interested, he said in a deep voice: "Sir, even if what you say is true, but we can't hand over the child like this You, let you take him out of Spain to strange London."
Aldrich nodded and said frankly: "I don’t think David should live separately from his parents at his current age, so the club can provide free apartments for your family. In addition, if you don’t dislike, the club The community you own will provide jobs."
A gift from Barnett to Aldridge half a year ago came in handy. Aldridge can provide apartments for free, and supermarkets and bars in the community can also provide jobs for families moving to England. Of course This is all for families with financial difficulties. East London is already the area with the most immigrants, so there is no question of whether it can adapt or be out of tune.
Villa's father is a miner, and his work income is not high, and the work is dangerous. After he heard Aldridge put forward such attractive conditions, he was already a little moved.
"David has an unparalleled talent for football. I hope he can join Millwall's youth academy and get the best guidance and care to ensure that he grows up healthily. When he grows up, he will become an important part of Millwall. "
"Apprentice?"
"I know that your family has some difficulties. It doesn't matter. If David is willing to come to Millwall, I can give him a contract of two thousand pounds a week. When he enters the adult team, I believe his treatment will be improved even more. "
"Two thousand pounds?!"
The family of three have their eyes widened. Even after the tax deduction, there are more than 4,000 pounds a month, and the British standard of relief at this time is only less than 500 pounds a month, which is enough to make them better in London. Life, especially on the basis of having free apartments.
Villa's father did not promise, but said: "Let us consider."
The pie that fell from the sky was a bit big and made him dizzy.
Aldridge was not in a hurry. He pulled out an envelope from the briefcase and placed it on the table. Before leaving, he said: "If you decide, you can call me at any time, or you can come to London to have a look. "
After Aldridge left, Villa opened the envelope on the table, which contained a thousand pounds, and three tickets to and from Spain to London.
On the way out of the town, Aldridge's phone rang and he heard Andrew's voice after he answered it.
"Both players are done. Elgra's uncle is with me. I talked to him about the treatment and it was finalized. The same is true for Capdevila."
"Well, okay, at that stop, go to Italy."
Neither 20-year-old Ivan Elgra nor 17-year-old Joan Capdevila have signed a formal contract with any team, getting these two players without having to spend a penny on the club's transfer fee.
The former is the absolute main force of the first phase of the famous Galaxy Battleship, which can hit the defender and the midfielder. The latter is the only non-Barcelona Real Madrid player to win the Spanish championship in the 10th World Cup and serves as the left back.
Two days later, the Italian capital of Rome.
In the cafe, a man in his thirties is reading the Roman Gazette, drinking a sip of coffee from time to time, a relaxed look.
Aldrich and Andrew walked into the cafe. After searching, Aldridge saw the man in the T-shirt, and walked calmly to say hello in Italian. The other person closed the newspaper and reached out. , Aldridge and Andrew sat opposite him.
"Alberto de Rossi. Mr. Aldrich Hall, Mr. Andrew Hall, hello."
The man reached down and shook hands with the two guests one by one, and then beckoned to the teenager who was opening the football magazine at the end of the cafe, and whispered: "Daniele."
The teenager who looked exactly like his father put down the magazine and walked to his father to sit down.
Aldrich looked at De Rossi, who was only 13 years old, and then looked back at Alberto De Rossi. He solemnly said: "Mr. De Rossi, I know you are The Roma team has extraordinary feelings, and I also know that you will spare no effort to train your son to be a member of the Roma team. Before I invite you, I will not deny two points. First, Daniele Talent, second, his stay in the city of Rome in the future will contribute to the Roma team."
Alberto De Rossi has reached the age of retirement, but he is still playing for the Roma team, and he is very sure that the future of De Rossi Jr. should also be in Rome.
Old De Rossi nodded frankly: "Yes, so, I don't think this meeting will have a satisfactory result for both parties. I am skeptical of English football. If I send my son to Millwall, it may be ruined. Got him."
This old De Rossi is really outspoken. There is no mention of Italian football in his speech, but he is in contempt for the football environment outside Italy.
Aldridge said after a moment of silence: "In my team, there are now four young players from Italy."
Old De Rossi raised the "Roman Sports" in his hand and joked: "The whole Italy knows, and you also recommend those players to enter the Italian youth team, hehe."
After he finished, he flipped the newspaper and the page titled "Where is Millwall?" The page reflected in Audridge's eyes.
