Chapter 589

If you want to ask, who is the focus of European football in the middle and late June?

It must have been Arjan Robben, except for the cold.

The Dutch winger, who is famous for his explosive power and speed, has always been praised by the outside world as a favorite of the cold. In that year, he became a left winger and won the admiration of the whole European football world.

But since the beginning of last season, there has been a steady stream of rumors about Robben's transfer.

Before Real Madrid president Calder ó n in the election, he listed three goals for all members, namely Kaka, Robben and Fabregas. However, one year after he was elected, none of the three players came.

Because of this, Robben has always been associated with Real Madrid.

In the second half of last season's Premier League, Robben gradually lost his main position due to injury, especially in the Champions League knockout, the starting position was replaced by young player Kalou, which directly led to the media's more intense speculation about Robben's departure.

In the summer of this year, Chelsea sent off manager Jose Mourinho and ushered in new coach Rijkaard, who welcomed his Dutch compatriots and hoped that Robben would stay in the team. Chelsea also made it clear that they hoped to renew their contract with Robben.

This could have stopped the suspicions of the outside world in time, but in fact, the renewal negotiations have been delayed.

On the contrary, the news that Robben has joined Real Madrid has been constantly revealed.

For a moment, the whole European football world seems to have decided that Robben will become another superstar introduced by Real Madrid this summer. Even many Real Madrid fans are looking forward to the scene of the Dutchman flying in the Bernabeu.

It was in this atmosphere that Gao Han finally dealt with his personal affairs, left Beijing and returned to Europe.

But his first stop was a bit of a surprise.

…………

…………

Groningen, the Netherlands.

To pick up is Robben's father Hans, he is also Robben's agent.

In addition to his wife Linxia, there is Jorge Mendes, who is also one of Robben's agents.

Sitting in Hans's car, they went to the hotel they had prepared in advance. They talked and laughed along the way. The main topic was Robben's wedding tomorrow.

Yes, he's getting married.

The object is his classmate in high school. I have seen him many times in alpine area. They have been in love for seven years.

Sometimes when you think about it, the cold is also very sad.

He still remembers that when he first met Robben, he was still a teenager, but now he has grown up and is going to get married, which makes him feel the passing of time.

But the hand is involuntarily more forcefully clenched Lin Xia.

"Mr. Gao Han, Arjan is very glad to know that you are here. He planned to meet you at the airport in person, but you know that he is very busy today, so I am here." Hans was driving ahead, laughing.

"I can understand, Hans." Gao Han said with a smile.

It's also a great joy for alpine people to be able to see their beloved get married with their own eyes.

"Still, I hope you can have a good talk with him."

"What's the matter?"

Hans wanted to talk, but he was aware of the cold in the back row.

"He's not in a good mood now. If he didn't book the wedding date long ago, I'm afraid he's not in the mood to get married now. You know, he's very dissatisfied with his situation last season, especially in the Champions League."

As early as in the Champions League final, Gao Han noticed Robben's displeasure, because in that game, he was not injured or ill, but was placed on the bench by Jose, instead of reusing Kalou, which is definitely unacceptable for Robben.

Of course, from the perspective of Jose, he chose Kalou to strengthen the front court's defensive force, but it is too extravagant to put Robben on the bench.

"In addition to the game, the attitude of Jose is also very dissatisfied with Robben, because he has publicly attacked Robben, hoping that he can have a more sense of responsibility, but you also know that the real reason for Robben's frequent injuries is the unreasonable competition in the Chelsea team and the poor treatment of Chelsie."

Arjen Robben often calls Gao Han and complains to him. Occasionally, he consults Gao Han for advice. Therefore, Gao Han is quite familiar with him. The main reason lies in the way he employs people.

Professional league is very realistic and cruel, and the management of Jose is also very realistic.

When the players perform well, he will be very open-minded and even give in appropriately. At this time, the cooperation between the players and the manager will be very harmonious, and even there will be scenes of deep affection between the master and the apprentice.

Arjen Robben was like this when he was at the beginning of Jose, so he was very brilliant, almost the number one star in the team.

But when Robben began to get hurt a lot, the attitude of Jose changed.

Or it should be said that after Robben's constant performance and condition were affected by his frequent injuries, he really realized the reality of the dressing room management of mussio, that is, his attitude towards those players who could not help the team was too cold, even for Robben.

Soon, the relationship between Robben and mussio dropped from the original apprenticeship to the freezing point. At this time, the outside world began to speculate about Robben's move to Real Madrid. The media had a keen sense of smell.

Later, a lot of things happened. For example, Robben was forced to play before he recovered several times. Even once, the team doctor took Robben to the head coach's dressing room to oppose, which could not change his decision.

Robben himself has also experienced the difference between the attitude of the head coach before and after. For a young man in his early twenties, his greatest desire is to win the trust of the head coach and return to the starting line-up. Therefore, he does not consider the consequences and drags his body to play again and again.

The final result is that Robben's injury is repeated frequently, and his state is also ups and downs. In the second half of last season, he was even put on the bench by mussio, which directly led to the break of the relationship between the two and prompted Robben to escape from Stamford Bridge.

Also as the head coach, Gao can understand what Jose is thinking, because professional football is so cruel, the relationship between the coach and the players is like this, and the head coach must be strong, otherwise, in the dressing room, he will be eaten alive by the players, and he will not know how to die.

Such cases happen every month and every year in European football.

What's more, there's a lot of pressure on him.

To put it bluntly, everything depends on achievements.

But Gao can also understand Robben's choice not to renew his contract and want to leave.

Because for him, he can no longer rely on Chelsea, leaving is the best solution.

Sometimes, some things, there is no absolute right and wrong, right and wrong.

…………

The man who wants to get married!

When Alpine arrived at the hotel, Robben was wearing a silver white dress, standing in front of the mirror, posing, and the bride, bonadean Ariel, was standing by in a pure white wedding dress.

They look like a perfect match.

"Boss."

As soon as he saw the cold coming in, van der Sar immediately welcomed him.

This time Robben's wedding, a total of more than 100 friends and relatives were invited, but no one from Chelsea was invited, except van der Sar, a good friend of the national team.

"Hey, Edwin." Gao Han smiles and hugs van der Sar.

He really doesn't understand why Robben, a young attacking player, has such a good relationship with a bad old goalkeeper in his thirties? This is totally unreasonable.

But sometimes it's just that strange.

As soon as the high cold appeared, all the people on the scene immediately looked at him. Although there were no media reporters present, they were basically fans. They had been listening to the name of the high cold for a long time. They were all honored to see the real people with their own eyes.

Robben also took his fiancee's hand and both came to meet Gao Han.

Gao Han and Lin Xia also gave them a precious gift in accordance with Chinese traditional customs.

It can be seen that Robben was very happy to see Gao Han. He quickly tried on his dress, checked with the emcee about the wedding process tomorrow, and immediately ran out to have afternoon tea with Gao Han, Hans, Mendes and van der Sar in the restaurant of the hotel.

Linxia is hosted by the bride Ariel.

And the topic happened to talk about van der Sar's transfer.

"Did you really decide to go to Manchester United?" Mendes had an accident.

Van der Sar is getting old, almost 37 years old, and he is still changing jobs. Is that a bit too much?

But Edwin van der Sar was very serious and said: "it's decided that today's Chelsea is not the same as it was in those days. Whether it's the atmosphere of the team or the way the team plays, even I can't stand it."

Alpine used his eyes to sweep, van der Sar's condition is quite good, and from last season's Champions League final, he is still van der Sar of that year, the level is still the top in Europe.

No wonder that guy Ferguson can see it.

"What do you think, boss?" Van der Sar asked sincerely.

For the cold, he has always had an inexplicable trust.

At that time, when he was at his lowest point, he took him from Fulham to Chelsea and helped him reach the top.

"I have no problem. I have talked with Ferguson several times. As he told you, he really intends to adjust the tactics of Manchester United over the years. I believe you will have a better future in Manchester United."

As the saying goes, once the emperor, once the courtiers, van der Sar and Robben were introduced in the cold period, they were not paid much attention in the period of Jose. Abramovich even had the idea to wash them out. Now Rijkaard is on the stage, it will definitely bring a group of his own players, so their situation will be more embarrassing.

It's better to leave.

As the saying goes, trees die and people live.

As long as you have strength, are you afraid you can't get along in European football?

"Jorge, help me talk to Manchester United." Van der Sar looks at Mendes.

I can see that he has made this decision for a long time.

Mendes nodded.

Although Edwin van der Sar is nearly 37 years old, now that Ferguson has a good eye on him, he will try his best to win reasonable benefits for the players. This may be the last contract of Edwin van der Sar's career.

Arjen Robben heard it, looked at his father, looked back at the cold and said, "boss, I've decided to leave Chelsea too. I want to go to Real Madrid."

Looking at his expression, I thought about it for a long time before I made this decision.

But after hearing this, Gao Han blurted out: "no way!"
