Chapter 885： The story of Hazard and his family

To the east of Mons, a famous tourist city in southern Belgium, there is a small city called La Louvière.

Unlike Mons, the transportation hub that extends in all directions, La Louvière is just a small and unassuming city, even on the map, it is a trivial existence.

La Louvière has a football field and a training center, which are the common memories of countless young people in this small city.

They have all played and trained here.

So far, the most famous story about this football field and training center in this small city is the Hazard family.

Father Thierry and mother Karin are both professional football players. This is very rare in such a small city. So Thierry is also the youth coach of this country team, and his wife Karin serves as his assistant. .

They have four children. The eldest is Eden. Now he plays in Lille, the second is Sorgen, and he also plays in the youth academy of the French team. The third is Kilian, and he is now also in the Belgian youth team. Training team players.

In 2003, their youngest member, Etang, was trained by his parents in this small team in his hometown.

The first three children played very well, they are the outstanding "children of other people" in the eyes of the residents of small cities, but this also makes Thierry, as a coach, very sensitive. He is always worried that others will say that he is partial. His own children, so he is always very strict in training, especially when dealing with his own children.

Sometimes it is so harsh that others can't stand it anymore, after all, Etang is only eight years old.

Every time Karin came forward to ease the atmosphere and gave her husband a step down.

The couple sang red face and the other sang white face. Over the years, they worked closely with each other to raise their fourth child.

It's only separated from the training ground by a road, and across the street is a row of three-story apartments.

The Azar family live here.

Thierry often said that the reason why he stayed here as a coach was because he wanted to be close to home. Otherwise, as early as when the boss Eden was valued by the northern Tibizi youth training camp, he could go directly to Tibizi. Coached by the youth team of Belgium, that is the Belgian second division team, the salary is much higher than it is now.

But the benefits of coaching in the hometown team are also very obvious.

Being close to home is one aspect. On the other hand, it is only a hundred kilometers away from Lille, where the boss Eden plays. It is very convenient to go back and forth. The second and third children also accept the best and most formal in France because of the boss. Youth training.

Today, the biggest wish of the couple is to train their youngest into a professional player.

While training the players, Thierry and Karin looked back from time to time to look at their home across the road.

At this moment, in the living room on the second floor, the boss Eden, who has just returned home from Lille, is also standing in front of the window of the living room, overlooking the training ground, watching his parents train his younger brother and his peers. Li can't help but think back to how he was when he was training on this stadium.

At that time, he never thought that there would be today.

Who can think of it?

…

Night fell.

After a day of training, the children dispersed in a rush, either their parents picked them up, or went home by themselves.

Small cities have the advantages of small cities. Everyone knows each other and looks after each other, so the children don’t have to worry about getting lost.

Although they are coaches, Thierry and Karin are like the youngest boy Etang, sweating profusely.

Thierry took Etang's hand and went home to take a shower first, while Karin went to the nearby farmers market.

The boss is back, and she plans to give him his favorite dishes.

Speaking of the boss in the family, he is really good at everything. He is gentle, humble, and treats his younger brother with great affection. In France, no matter who he is facing, he always praises his younger brother and degrades himself, so much so. People who don't know the inside story think that the younger brother will be more talented than the boss.

But in fact, the boss is the most talented person in the family.

But the second child is the most diligent one in the family.

The boss is gluttonous and lacks self-discipline. This is a big problem for him, so that every time he goes home, Thierry has to nag for a long time, for fear that he will grow flesh if he is not careful, and the weight will affect his speed. And explosive power, which led to a lot of technical moves that could not be completed, so that his performance on the court was greatly reduced.

But the boss doesn't seem to be particularly concerned about this.

Talented people are often so self-willed!

They were all brought up by themselves. Karin understands the personality and temperament of each of them, and loves every child in general.

…

Karin returned home after shopping for food and was busy again.

From time to time, his father Thierry urged Etang to take a bath.

This kid pestered his elder brother as soon as he got home. He was obviously a teenager. How could he have such a good relationship?

"I'm angry if I don't take a shower again!" Thierry had to shout with a straight face.

Etang hurriedly ran to take a bath.

The eldest Aiden glanced at his old father and curled his lips, as if to say that it was still the same trick after so many years.

Since returning home to the present, the boss has been slumped on the sofa and watched TV, his **** hasn't moved, which makes Thierry a little bit unwilling to watch.

I just won the Ligue 1 championship and the best player of the season in Ligue 1. I'm probably tired, so bear with him!

Besides, he is twenty years old, how can he train like the eight-year-old Etang?

It didn't take long for Karin to prepare a sumptuous dinner.

The family gathered around the restaurant to eat, and couldn't help but think of their second and third sons who are still in France.

"Thorgen and Kilian don't know when they will be back?" Karin missed the child a little.

In fact, it was very close, only a hundred kilometers away, and it only took more than an hour to drive there.

But sometimes it is like this, no matter how close it is, it also separates the two places.

"It should have been these few days. They still have another game and they will disband after the kick." Thierry replied.

"How's the youngest student's recent studies?" Eden asked suddenly.

La Louvière is very close to France, so the people here can basically speak French, and Lille is also the closest city in France to Belgium. There is no problem in communicating with the Belgians in La Louvière, including school education.

"Able to maintain the passing line, the ball has grown a lot." Thierry smiled comfortedly.

The most satisfying thing in his life is that he has cultivated three children. It seems that there is no problem playing professional players.

If possible, he hopes that the youngest can also embark on this path.

No way, the Azar family just doesn't have the genes for reading.

Of course, whether it is France or Belgium, the youth team players must pass their studies in addition to playing football.

"How many days do you plan to stay here this time?" Karin asked concerned.

"I don't know, I'm waiting for news from John."

John Bick, the agent of the three Hazard brothers, Eden moved to Lille, and his two brothers were playing football in France. It was all about John Bick running.

Speaking of this, Thierry and Karin glanced at each other, both with a worried look.

Although it is in a small city, the information is advanced, TV and the Internet are connected to the outside world, and a lot of news can come in.

Everyone knows that after the end of the season, several Premier League teams, as well as La Liga's Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​are robbing Hazard.

The most important thing is that Manchester City made an offer first, and several other teams followed the news. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern and Juventus and other giants also followed suit, and they were going crazy for a while.

Passing is everywhere now. See which team Eden Hazard will choose?

Ligue 1 champion Lille desperately refutes the rumors, saying that the team will do everything in their power to keep Hazard and plan to renew his contract with Hazard to try to keep him in the team and play well in the new season. UEFA Champions League.

But everyone knows that this refutation is actually false.

For a team like Lille, there is nothing more cost-effective than selling players at a high price. The reason they refute the rumors is that they want to sell at a better price.

Eden returned to La Louvière from Lille. On the one hand, he wanted to avoid the harassment of the outside world. On the other hand, he also let his agent handle these matters. He concentrated on hiding behind waiting for news.

Thierry and Karin also know the situation that the boss is facing now. They are both professional players, so they all know how important a transfer is to a professional player, and how many professional players have changed because of the transfer. The entire career?

Career planning is good, the transfer works well, it is easy to go to the next level, and conversely, it may fall at any time.

This is especially true for a twenty-year-old player like Eden.

"Boss, what do you think?" Thierry asked caringly. UU Reading

Eden thought for a while, shook his head and said, "There is no clear idea."

His personality has always been like this, he doesn't have much ambition, and he feels a little at ease.

The advantage of this kind of personality is that he won't compete with others, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, he is not enterprising and relatively lazy.

To use Thierry and Karin secretly speaking helplessly, the talent of that suit was ruined in vain.

But what can be done with things like character?

"Then in general terms, which league do you prefer: Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga or Premier League?"

Eden shook his head again, "I never thought, if I choose, I would like to be closer to home."

Thierry and Karin's faces became complicated, not knowing whether to laugh or to be angry.

It’s a good thing for children to love home, but they are all twenty years old and still love home. Isn’t that great?

If you want to be closer to home, that would be the Premier League and Bundesliga.

The Premier League and Belgium are separated by the English Channel, which is really close. The Bundesliga is a bit farther away, but it is also convenient.

As for La Liga and Serie A, they are too far apart, regardless of the climate or anything else, they are very different.

"Actually, your characteristics are quite suitable for La Liga." Karin said.

Eden is a technical player with excellent dribbling and ball control ability and strong breakthrough ability, but the physical confrontation is relatively poor and he is not tall. Such a player is still more suitable for La Liga.

Of course, when it comes to La Liga, there are also differences. For example, Real Madrid and Barcelona are two distinct teams.

Even Barcelona, ​​under Mourinho's coaching, still has the gene of passing and controlling the ball in his bones, and it is still technical, but Real Madrid pays more attention to physical fitness, speed and intensity.

The difference between the two teams can be seen from the core players, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
