Chapter 600 Lifelong regret
On the evening of July 10, 2010, the Spanish national team was in the World Cup final at the Football City Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa. When the game reached the 16th minute, Fabregas passed the ball to the right side of the penalty area. Iniesta successfully counterattacked. After stopping the ball with his right foot, he volleyed into the far corner about nine meters away from the goal, scoring the final goal for Spain.
This goal not only made Iniesta famous, but also made Tottenham Hotspur's midfield core, Spanish international Fabregas's net worth surge like a rocket, but also made it possible for Rafenca's luxury villa in a luxurious villa in the western wealthy area of Madrid, 10,000 kilometers away, sitting in front of a TV and watching the Spanish players celebrating wildly, she couldn't help but burst into tears, her whole head was stretched into her legs, revealing only her curly hair.
He has a name that is well-known to all fans of the world, Raul Gonzalez.
As the banner of Real Madrid and the superstar of the Galaxy Battleship, Raul has been the main player of the Spanish national team since his debut. No matter how his teammates change or how they change, he is the hope of all Spanish fans.
But in the past, Spain has never been able to achieve very convincing results. Even so, Raul is still supported and loved by domestic Spanish fans. They are more willing to believe that this is not Raul's responsibility, but the overall responsibility of the Spanish national team.
When Raul was in Real Madrid, in order to make room for the superstars he joined, he kept retreating and staying away from the penalty area he loved. His tasks in every game also changed from the original goal to helping the superstars score goals, and even helping the team defend, but he silently endured all this.
But behind this, with the explosion of talent, the strength of this national team is constantly improving. Raul's performance in Real Madrid and his age finally made Aragonese choose to give him up in 2008. But ironically, the Spanish national team without Raul won the European championship.
On that night, Raul was asking himself countless times, was it really his own question? He is really a cancer of the Spanish national team? Is it really the European championship that Spain won after he was expelled from the national team?
No one would believe this nonsense. Even after Spain won the European Cup, even if it already has top scorers such as Torres and Villa, there are still countless fans, countless media reporters, and countless professionals calling for the recall of Raul.
"We owe Raul a championship. He should come back to the national team and enjoy the current results, because without his efforts and efforts back then, it would be impossible to achieve the Spanish national team today."
History is moving forward, all the remarks that tear history apart and forget history are nonsense
If Raul had not supported the banner of the Spanish national team, would it be difficult to say whether Spain has achieved today's achievements. Perhaps Raul has become a burden to the national team today, but it should never be considered a cancer of Spain because of this, because Raul has never been a problem with the head coach whether in the national team or in Real Madrid.
Therefore, after Aragonese won the European Cup, the former teammate and captain of Real Madrid, Jero, took over the power to manage the Spanish national team, and the former head coach of Real Madrid, Boske, took over the national team's coach.
In this case, all Spanish fans, even fans around the world, are very aware of one thing, Raul is coming back
Boske and Yero's home are not far from Raul's home, and they often meet. After they both took over the national team's power, Boske gave Raul a promise that as long as he performs a little, as long as he can participate in the game and stay in shape, he will definitely appear on the roster to South Africa, which is the reward he deserves.
Raul knew very well that Bosque was a typical Real Madrid man who valued feelings and traditions, so he understood Raul's situation and his difficulties. So when Raul stood up to defend Raul, whether in Real Madrid or the Spanish national team, Bosque must be among the crowd who stood up to defend Raul.
Jero also told Raul that Spanish Football Association Chairman Villa also supported Raul's return to the national team. Jero is Raul's big brother in Real Madrid, the old captain, and the object and role model that Raul has been learning throughout his life. When Jero was expelled from the Bernabeu, Raul defended and fought for the big brother countless times. When Raul was called the ball dominant and the cancer at the Bernabeu, Jero also stood up again and again to regret Raul, believing that the so-called Real Madrid fans did to him back then have now been passed on to Raul, believing that Raul had borne the mistakes of everyone in Real Madrid alone.
Raul found Florentino, Pellegrini, and everyone sat down to talk, so there was news from the outside that Raul was leaving Real Madrid, which was indeed an option at the time.
To be honest, after learning from Jero's lesson, although Florentino didn't like Raul, because he always felt that Raul represented the past Real Madrid, not the current Real Madrid in his mind, but this time he did not make things difficult for Raul. He even promised that as long as Raul was willing, he could stay at the Bernabeu until any time.
Pellegrini also made his promise that he would give Raul a chance to play fairly.
So Raul stayed because he spent his whole life in Real Madrid, and he hoped that he could retire here, but it turned out that he was wrong.
With one superstar joining, Raul has no position at all, and it is difficult for him to win even the chance to play, which makes Boske no reason to recruit people. Could he give up those main players who play in the national team and perform well and choose Raul who can't even play in Real Madrid?
To a certain extent, it was Real Madrid, his most beloved life, who completely ruined his last chance to play for the national team and completely lost the opportunity to touch the Hercules Cup.
When Jero left the team, the young Raul took over the captain's armband of Real Madrid under various controversies and encountered the challenge of a superstar, he did not cry; when he saw Real Madrid have no championship every year and ended in the quarterfinals of the Champions League every year, he did not cry; when he was cursed by the fans of his favorite Real Madrid, calling him a ball boss, calling him a cancer, and even letting him get out of the Bernabeu Stadium, he did not cry; when he was cursed by the fans of his favorite Real Madrid, he called him a ball boss, calling him a cancer, and even letting him get out of the Bernabeu Stadium, he did not cry;
But now, watching Iniesta score a final goal for Spain at the last moment of the game and watching the players of the Spanish national team take the podium of the World Cup championship, he cried, crying loudly, as if he was a child.
He can no longer have the chance to win the World Cup. His life is destined to end with regret. This is fate
His wife, Mamen Osans, fell asleep taking care of the children. When she heard her husband's crying, she rushed out of the room and saw Raul crouching and sitting on the sofa, crying loudly, while the TV was playing the scene of Spain winning the World Cup without any emotion. Her tears couldn't help but fall down.
She knew better than anyone else what her husband had suffered in the past few years, and he shouldn't have been treated like this.
If Raul had chosen to leave after Yero and Boske left the team, I believe his career would have been much better than it is now. At that time, Raul did not lack next home, and there were a lot of giant teams who wanted to get Raul.
He gave everything to Real Madrid, including his youth and his career, but what did he get?
Marmen Osans walked over, sat down next to Raul, and hugged her husband tightly, as if a mother was comforting her injured child, she believed that Raul needed her now.
No one knows how long Raul has cried, and has never calculated it. Anyway, the live broadcast of the World Cup final ended very early, and it is not clear what time it is now, and Raul is asleep in his wife's arms.
The next morning, it was another rare and good weather outside.
Although they are located in the wealthy community of Rafenca and cannot feel the madness and clarity of Spanish fans, they can imagine that all Spanish fans today will be the same as the festival, because Spain finally won a Hercules Cup.
Mamen Sans got up early to make breakfast for the children and her husband. Raul, who had thought she would sleep for a long time, got up shortly after she got up. Her eyes were covered in blood and her eyes were a little red and swollen. It was obviously left after crying last night.
After Raul got up in the morning, he said nothing, but walked out of the living room alone and sat in the garden. He sat for two or three hours. When he returned home, he went to the living room to get his phone number.
"Genes" Mamen Sans listened silently on the side, and Genes Karavahal, this is Raul's agent.
"Please call me to the Bernabeu and tell them that I hope to terminate the current contract early."
"What did you say?" Ginez or Karavajal on the other side of the phone was obviously full of shock, it was too sudden.
"Yes, you heard it right, Gines, I'm leaving the Bernabeu." Raul was very sure, and his face, which always gave people a very weak feeling, was full of seriousness and determination at this moment.
Perhaps, this decision came a little late for him, but he knew he had to do something.
He is Raul Gonzalez, Spanish Golden Boy, the captain of Real Madrid. He must use his strength and performance to tell everyone and prove one thing. He is a professional player and only a professional player. He has never been the dominant ball player of Real Madrid or the Spanish national team, nor is he a cancer.
This is the only thing he can do and must do now
Before the World Cup ended, Tottenham Hotspur’s training camp has begun, and with the end of the World Cup, the transfer market has also begun to surge. Tottenham Hotspur receives some transfer faxes almost every day.
Ye Qiu still gave all the matters to Peter Nion to take charge, he arranged and supervised the team's pre-season training base at Theobord training base | Considering that Tottenham Hotspur has a large number of international players participating in the South Africa World Cup, Tottenham Hotspur will no longer go abroad for training this summer
But on this day, he left the training camp and drove back to central London by himself, and came to the Bulgari Hotel in the south of Hyde Park. This is one of the most luxurious hotels in London. Those who appear here today are all big names who will cause earthquakes if they stomp their feet in the Premier League.
Before the start of each season in the Premier League, there will be a summit, which basically arranges the chairman or CEO of each club to attend, and is organized by the Premier League. The purpose is to coordinate cooperation between each club and to arrange all the situations in the new season.
The FA often invites clubs to attend some meetings, but the attendees are basically agents or head coaches of each club. However, this time the people who appeared at the Bulgari Hotel are obviously different because he not only attended the summit, but also attended the club's chairman.
Ye Qiu's BMW stopped at the gate of Bulgari Hotel, and immediately a service staff came forward to take his car keys and planned to drive to the parking lot. Ye Qiu walked directly into the hotel lobby, and then, accompanied by the staff, entered the elevator and went directly to the private venue on the eighth floor.
When Ye Qiu opened the door, he glanced at him and saw that there were many people sitting in the venue where the space was not spacious, and he knew many of them, such as the initiator of this party, Arsenal Club Chairman Peter Hillwood, as well as Chelsea boss Abramovich and club chairman Bruce Buck, an old acquaintance.
In addition, there are also Manchester United's David Gill, representatives of the Glazer family, such as Manchester City's Abu Dhabi consortium's agent Mubarak, club CEO Cook, Premier League upstart West Ham United boss Reponolev, etc.
Each of these characters is a real power player in the Premier League. The ability to invite so many people to the Bulgari Hotel at the same time shows the influence of the two Premier League giants, Arsenal and Manchester United. As the newly emerging giants, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are still a bit lacking in this regard.
Tottenham Hotspur under Ye Qiu rarely participates in these aspects, and focuses more on its own development. But if you ignore Tottenham Hotspur's influence just because of this, it would be wrong.
If we want to describe the current influence of Tottenham Hotspur, it means that Tottenham Hotspur may not have the right to make decisions in the agreement reached between all Premier League clubs, and what they say may not count, but if Tottenham Hotspur does not speak, then any resolution will definitely not count.
Ye Qiu was able to attend such a meeting mainly because Tottenham Hotspur has always had a good relationship with Arsenal and Manchester United, so Ye Qiu attended the meeting at the same time with Peter Neon this time.
"Thank you very much for taking the time to participate, Mr. Ye Qiu." Pete Hillwood and David Jill walked up side by side and welcomed Ye Qiu at the gate. Although Manchester United and Arsenal are mortal enemies, in fact, the relationship between the top leaders of these two clubs is still very good. After all, they have quite a lot of common interests.
"I will definitely arrive when you invite me." Ye Qiu smiled and shook hands with Hillwood and David Ojill respectively.
Pete Hillwood felt very proud. Several people happened to see Ye Qiu enter the venue and approached. In addition, he planned the venue and organization, so he naturally took on the role of the host.
"Come on, Mr. Ye Qiu, I'll introduce you." Pete Hillwood pointed to a young man nearby, obviously not like a British man. Although he had thick whiskers, a bit like a German, Ye Qiu's accent just now was not like a European, but should be a foreign boss.
The answer is already very clear, either it is the spokesperson of Liverpool boss Ambani, or it is the spokesperson of the Qatar royal family, the boss behind Newcastle, because only these two groups of Ye Qiu don't know him.
But the answer surprised Ye Qiu a little because the person in front of him was the crown prince of Qatar, Tamim River Le Thani.
"I'm very happy to meet you, Mr. Ye Qiu, I am your fan and your challenger." Tamim He Le Thani seemed to know socializing very well, and the first sentence after the meeting was a joke.
"I'm glad to see you." Ye Qiu was neither humble nor arrogant and kept being polite and polite.
"Although I'm studying in the UK, I still have a little English," Tamim He Lethani said with a smile and said self-deprecatingly.
"No, I think it's OK," Ye Qiu replied with a smile.
He has seen media reports before that the Qatar crown prince graduated from the Royal Military Academy of Sanhurst, less than 50 kilometers west of London. This military academy is known as the United States West Point Military Academy, Russia's Vronchi Military Academy, and France's Saint-Sill Military Academy, and is ranked among the world's four major military academies.
Ye Qiu was also thinking that perhaps it was because of his previous study in the UK that the Crown Prince of Qatar was so interested in Premier League football. After he couldn't buy Manchester United, he switched to teams including Liverpool, Arsenal and other teams, and finally acquired Newcastle.
Of course, Ye Qiu would definitely not be stupid enough to think that this is purely an interest. No one has such an expensive interest. Even if he has money, it would be fine. So Ye Qiu has no doubt that Tamim He Le Thani's acquisition of Newcastle and landing in the Premier League also has his purpose and interests, such as advertising for Qatar to win the hosting rights of the World Cup.
"Mr. Ye Qiu, to be honest, I admire you very much," Tamim He Le Thani said in a joke, "You not only successfully run a great company like Ye Zi Technology, you also built Tottenham Hotspur into a giant team. Since I acquired Newcastle, I have always been using you as my goal."
Ye Qiu listened with a modest smile. He didn't know what reaction he should have, nor did he know whether this guy was saying true or false.
Sure enough, he changed his subject, "So, I really hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you, Mr. Ye Qiu. For example, in the player transfer, I hope you and your team can consider our sincerity."
