Chapter 440: Three Letters of Resignation
80_80813 "Diego, have you heard?" ”
In a villa on the outskirts of Madrid, Atletico Madrid's assistant coach Ortega asked Diego with concern? Simone.
The Argentine coach, who made a name for himself last season, was watching the news on TV intently.
A news item was playing on the news that the Spanish prime minister had met with a wealthy businessman from China surnamed Yang.
During the meeting, the Prime Minister promised to open the door for Chinese companies to invest in Spain.
The meeting was also attended by a number of officials from key government departments, as well as the mayor of Madrid and a number of parliamentarians.
Seeing this, Diego? Simone pursed his lips, impatient.
Since meeting the two new owners of Atletico Madrid, he has been very unhappy with Chinese investors.
It is said that the Chinese are rich, but how can he look at the two wretched people who don't know anything about football, and they are poor ghosts at all?
Is this visiting Chinese super-rich man really worthy of his name?
Who knows?
Ortega was a little depressed when he saw that Simeone didn't speak, "I said, Diego, did you listen to what I said?" ”
Diego? Simeone then turned his head, "Oh, what did you say?" ”
"Please!" Ortega was a little depressed, "Don't you care at all?" ”
"What do I care about?" Diego? Simeone was surprised.
Why is the speech so beginningless and endless?
Would you like to have a good chat together?
“ok!” Ortega could only hold back the depression in his heart, and then patted Boggs, who was sitting on the side playing WeChat, and asked the latter to pay attention to it, looking very serious.
"I've heard that those two fool bosses sold Falcao!"
Diego? Simeone frowned, a little stunned.
Boggs snorted directly, "How is this possible?" ”
"Who says it's impossible?" Ortega was unconvinced, "It's not that you don't know, the team's financial situation in the past few years has been so bad, besides, whether Falcao sells it or not, the team can't call the shots at all!" ”
At this point, Boggs had nothing to say.
Several of them know very well that Atletico Madrid is glamorous on the surface, but in fact it is rotten in the bones.
Many people who don't know the situation say that the Sheets are faintly going to be the third pole of La Liga to challenge Real Madrid and Barcelona.
As everyone knows, this is a joke in the eyes of those who know the inside story.
If your financial situation doesn't improve, you'll never have to compete with Real Madrid and Barcelona!
"Didn't I hear before that those two fool bosses were cheated by the board of directors and had to take out the money to pay off their debts?" Diego? Simeone was a little weird.
This debt is paid off, why sell Falco?
Besides, after selling the center forward, who will Atletico Madrid rely on to score goals in the new season?
You know, Atletico Madrid only has 45% ownership of Falcao, even if it is really sold, how much money can it be exchanged for?
Can this money bring in a striker who can fight like Falcao?
Besides, how much of this money can be taken out to pay off debts, this is also a suspense!
Ortega shook his head and smiled, "I've heard that those two fools got into a big fight with them at Calderón Stadium after knowing that they had been cheated, and then left, and I don't know where they went. ”
Diego? Simeone and Boggs looked at each other, both helpless.
Put yourself in your shoes, who you change, you will be angry when you know that you have been cheated so badly!
"I've heard from them that the team is likely to be sold again!"
"Sell again?" Boggs couldn't help it.
How long has it been since it was going to be sold?
When will this come to an end?
"A lot of people are worried right now, and I've heard that before they sell the team, they are likely to sell a group of stars in the team and try to get back their investment!" Ortega said pessimistically.
"Selling Falcao is just the beginning, I heard that Thiago is also leaving!"
When the three people present heard this, they were all stunned.
It's definitely possible!
The reason is very simple, that is, one shot and two scattered, anyway, it is a loss!
Although they are the head coaches of this kind of capital level operation, they can't say anything.
The reason is simple, they don't have that weight!
"If that's the case, then we should start thinking about it, we can't stay here in Madrid anymore!" Boggs looked at Diego? Simeone, very bold to mention yì Dao.
With Simeone's current reputation in European football, it is not realistic to coach a big club, but it should be no problem to coach a mid-table team in the big four leagues.
If it is really as Ortega said, then Atletico Madrid will definitely fall and continue to stay, which will not only trap investors from China, but also Simeone and the two of them.
Diego? Simeone looked at Boggs and then at Ortega, and found that his two right-hand men were looking at him expectantly, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Wait! ”
"What are you waiting for?" Ortega also spoke.
"Here, there is no money to ask for money, and now even people are going to be sold out, and there is a damn Caminero on his head, what is that guy capable of? Isn't it just that you are a Spaniard, relying on yourself to play in Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid? Isn't it just that you have a good relationship with the board of directors? ”
"Haven't you endured enough of being a boss everywhere, finding fault with us all day long, and dictating to us?"
The Camino that Ortega is talking about is Jose, the director of football at Atletico Madrid? Louis? Perez? Caminello, a former Atletico Madrid player, retired as director of football at Valladolid and later joined Atletico Madrid.
The entire Sheet Army knows, this guy has something to do with Diego? Simone is not right.
There are even rumors that this is specially installed by the board of directors to limit and apportionment Diego? Simeone's power.
Who gave the Argentines the nickname "Madman"?
Boggs looked at the indignant Ortega, and then at Diego? Simeone, with a deep sigh, patted Ortega on the shoulder, "Diego is right, wait a minute, see the situation clearly!" ”
In the final analysis, Atletico Madrid is their first stop in Europe, and all three have put a lot of effort and energy into this team, and it is really reluctant to let it go like this.
After all, when they landed in La Liga, they were ambitious and wanted to give it a go.
Diego? Simeone patted Boggs on the shoulder gratefully and nodded.
This is a good buddy to trust!
That's when Diego? Simeone's cell phone on the coffee table in the living room rang suddenly.
When I took it up, it turned out to be the phone number of the Calderón Stadium office.
"What's the matter?" Boggs had a sense of foreboding.
Even Ortega couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his face nervous.
Diego? Simeone took a deep breath and answered the phone.
"Hey, I'm Diego!"
"Hello, Diego, I'm Gimenez."
It turned out to be Gimenez, the secretary of the board? Paga!
"Hello, Gimenez!"
"That's right, Diego, there's a big change in the team, and the new owner has summoned all the top management to Calderón for a meeting, specifically asking you and the two assistant coaches to attend."
Diego? Simeone was taken aback, in addition to himself, even two assistant coaches were going to participate?
New boss?
Could it be those two fool bosses?
It seems that they are holding a grudge and want to take the opportunity to take revenge and fire the three of them!
Thought of this, Diego? Simeone couldn't help but feel a resentment in his heart, and his tone of voice became much tougher.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"I don't know the specifics, but I heard that it has something to do with the personnel change, I'm sorry, that's all I know, I still have to inform the others, please be on time!"
After all, Gimenez? Paga hung up the phone.
Diego? Simone put down the phone next to his ear in a daze, thinking about Gimenez? Paga's words.
Personnel changes?
By the way, it must be to fire a group of people and appoint a group of people.
They must have held a grudge against him when they drove him out of the training ground, and now the revenge is coming!
Suddenly, Diego? Simeone was a little uneasy.
I think he worked hard for Atletico Madrid and worked hard to bring this team to the Europa League final, although he did not win the championship in the end, but this result is obvious to all.
Do you really want to be **** by those two fool bosses?
When he relayed these words to his two assistants, both of them were furious.
"Fuck it, was it wrong for us to do this in the first place?"
"That is, who in European football allows the owner to interfere with the team's training?"
"Fire us squid? Okay, we don't need them to fire, write our own resignation letters! ”
"yes, there's no one left here, don't we have any other team to go to? We voluntarily resign! ”
Diego? Simeone thought about it and thought it was the same truth.
Instead of being fired, it is better to resign voluntarily!
In this way, you can also save a little face for yourself!
Just do it, the three of them immediately went to Simone's house, picked up a pen and paper, and directly wrote a letter of resignation.
After writing it, the three of them read it again and thought it was appropriate.
"Let's go, let's go to Calderón!"
With that, the three of them went out, got in the car, and went straight to Calderón Stadium.
As soon as I entered Calderón Stadium, I met Gimenez in the parking lot, who was rushing out of the door? Paga.
"Hey, why are you here? Didn't you say that the meeting would only start in the afternoon? ”
"We've got something, boss?"
"I'm going to Pennetta Stadium with the management!"
"What are you doing there?"
"Take the core management team of the club to inspect!" Gimenez? Paga laughed.
"I'm going to go over now, or you guys too!"
Diego? The three of Simeone looked at each other and nodded in unison.
The four of them got into the car and walked directly east from the M30 ring road next to the Calderón Stadium.
Atletico de Madrid's Calderón Stadium is technically located right in the heart of the city, with the M30 ring road passing right next to the Calderón Stadium, for which the Calderón Stadium has been specially renovated.
When Real Madrid's Bernabeu was built, it was located in a very remote northern suburb, but in recent years, the area around the Bernabeu Stadium has developed and gradually become the financial center of Madrid.
But when it comes to the most crowded and prosperous core district, Calderón Stadium is the closest.
But in recent years, the city of Madrid has been renovating and planning the city, and at the same time determined to rebuild a modern stadium in order to bid for the Olympic Games.
Therefore, the Calderón stadium of Atletico Madrid was included in the plan, which was intended to be transformed into a large park, and then a Penneta stadium located on the northeastern outskirts of the city, next to the M40, that is, on the side of the second ring road, near the capital airport, was assigned to Atletico Madrid.
As compensation, the government will demolish and rebuild the stadium to build a main Olympic stadium in preparation for the Olympic bid.
But no one thought that Madrid's bid for the Olympic Games was already two consecutive defeats!
The Pennetta Stadium, originally scheduled for completion in 2013, has not been heard from since.
The new boss went to Pennetta to inspect at this time, what did he want to do?
Diego? The three of Simeone were full of doubts.
But when I think about it, what else can I think of with those two fools?
I must be thinking about how to sell this plan and cash out!
Thinking of this, their disappointment was even worse.
So when Gimenez? When Paga asked, all three of them were blunt and said they were going to resign.
What makes Gimenez? Paga was taken aback and realized the severity of the problem.
But what they didn't expect was that when they arrived at the Pennetta Stadium, they were stunned!
