Chapter 45 The limelight
Digan signed a contract with Adidas, becoming the first football player newly signed by the Adidas brand since 2004. After obtaining Digan's consent, Adidas also announced it to the public. Degan is not to show off, but in fact, the announcement of the endorsement fee has no impact on him. The Italian tax department will not come to him. He just wants to prove that he is no worse than anyone else.
Sure enough, as soon as the news was announced, it immediately triggered a huge response. Digan's previous performance was excellent, scoring nine goals in three league games, making Ibrahimovic, who had threatened to exceed the number of goals scored in one game, completely become a laughingstock.
However, although the performance on the football field has attracted great attention, it is not enough to push him to the status of a star, but now it is different. It is a symbol of status by world-renowned sports brands, and Degan also jumped from a well-off to a multimillionaire.
Digan's leapfrog development, the first person to express dissatisfaction is Pazzini, the best friend.
"Rod! Seriously! I really don't understand why Adidas takes a fancy to you but doesn't like me, which is completely unreasonable! I also scored two goals in the last game!"
Degan can sign a contract with a world-renowned sports brand as a spokesperson. Pazini said he was not envious, which is impossible, just like Degan envied Kaka before.
Digan obviously disdained Pazini's shit theory: "That's just that you personally think that most people don't agree, which is why Adidas chose me, not you, James Paul, this is not envious!"
The appearance of Digan's stinky fart makes Pacini even more depressed. Anyway, he is also the pioneer of Italy's U21. Digan has never even touched the edge of the Brazilian national brand, but in terms of fame, the two are far from each other.
Degan can attract big-name coaches such as Ferguson, Wenger and Mourinho to talk, but who comes out of Italy knows who Pacini is.
The gap between people! Why is it so big!
Other teammates also congratulated Digan. Degan was not stingy. After training that day, the whole team was invited to spend a good time at Bergamo's largest nightclub. After playing the local tycoon, the Atlanta team was naturally refreshed and sat at home and ushered in their seventh round of the league rival Carli. Yali.
When it comes to history, Cagliari, like Bologna, is qualified to show off in front of Atlanta, because they have also had a top league championship in their history. However, unlike Bologna, Cagliari does not have a talkative Palyuka.
When it comes to strength, the two teams are also comparable. Atlanta has young talents such as Digan, Pacini, Montolivo and Lazari, as well as experienced veterans such as Albertini, Tebby and Sara.
Cagliari's number one is undoubtedly the Italian Tiger Zola and Esposito, who has experience in the national team. After the start of this season, Cagliari finished the first six rounds, and the results were not bad, with one win, two draws and three losses, and six points put them in the middle and lower reaches of the table.
In this game, Atlanta took the home advantage and took the lead. Digan received a straight plug ball from Montolivo and played an inverted triangle with Pacini. He entered the penalty area, pushed a shot and scored the tenth goal in his individual league, leading the scorer list. Adriano, the second, won five goals at the end of this season. It is estimated that Degan will be able to win the Golden Boot Award during the winter break.
Of course, Cagliari was not willing to raise his hand and surrender, and then launched a crazy counterattack. Finally, in the 30th minute of the first half of the game, Esposito made a cross, Zola clapped his horse and a push shot to equalize the score.
But the draw did not last long. Only five minutes later, Atlanta made a long pass from the backcourt. Degan headed the ball back on the penalty area, followed by Montolivo with a low shot and broke through Cagliari's goal again.
At the end of the first half, Atlanta withstood Cagliari's offensive and successfully kept the lead by one goal.
In the second half, Mandollini took the lead in making adjustments. Malcolini replaced Lazari and strengthened his offensive. Since having Degan, Mandollini has also become bold and no longer satisfied with the tactics of solid defense and waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, and the game is becoming more oppressive.
In the 60th minute, Degan seized the opportunity again, received a pass from Marcolini in the penalty area, headed the ball to the next city.
Degan's horrible goal efficiency has also made the fans crazy. They have been completely conquered by Degan, a big Brazilian man, and have scored 11 goals in four league games. Throughout the world football, this horrible efficiency is enough to walk alone in the world, even in Portugal every season. Judel, who scored dozens of goals, was also out of reach of Larson, who regarded goals like grass in Scotland.
Two goals ahead, Cagliari's morale was also affected, and the speed of the counterattack was not as fast as the first half. Finally, before the end of the game, Degan played a small cooperation with Pazini in the penalty area. Pazini shot and widened the difference to three goals.
Although Digan failed to continue the efficiency of his previous three league games and hat-trick, two goals and two assists still made him the most shining star on the field.
Even Cagliari's star Zola said after the game: "A young player like Degan will only appear in 50 years in world football. Although he is still very young, he is undoubtedly the best among players of the same age!"
It's not just Degan. As Atlanta's performance gets better and better, this young player team has also attracted more and more attention.
Digan, Montolivo, Pazini, Lazali, the existence of these young people, even those rich families can't help but be hot.
Of course, the most concerned is Degan. The crazy scoring efficiency and the strong pressure on the opponent's back line on the field have attracted more and more attention.
Mourinho has expressed his appreciation for Degan in front of the media more than once. You should know that the Portuguese maniac has never praised a player like this before.
Remember the first sentence he said when he first arrived at Chelsea?
God is the biggest, and I am the biggest under God!
Digan is now proud of spring breeze. His performance on the court is getting better and better. He is moving towards the top stars crazily. Outside the field, he has just signed a huge sponsorship contract, as well as his emotional life. Argentine beauty Belen took the initiative to embrace him. I don't know how many people have envied him.
Although he is a fledgling, it has almost conquered the whole of Italy in just a few games. There is even an open initiative of Italian fans that Degan should be allowed to join Italian nationality and let him represent Italy in the 2006 World Cup in Germany. Of course, this can only be a fantasy.
Digan's momentum has attracted the attention of countless people. Of course, the biggest headache is Galliani. His originally smooth head is almost as if he has been turned on. I don't know how many times he has cursed Tasotti behind his back. Their private relationship is very good, but his personal relationship can't control the work. Do.
If Tasotti hadn told him that Degan was a piece of garbage, he would not have kicked Degan away like throwing garbage. Now, no matter how hard he tried to express the signal of goodwill in the media, Degan would not respond.
Gagliani was almost crowned as incompetent, coupled with AC Milan's uneven results. In the just-ending game, AC Milan tied again, and the third position in the league was also surpassed by Inter Milan, the same city's sworn enemy.
In this way, the fans miss the wanderer Digan even more.
"Degan is a very good player, and I can't wait to see him wear AC Milan's red and black sword shirt."
Galliani's charming eyes were unexpectedly thrown into the pit again.
"AC Milan is a great team, but now my heart is only in Atlanta!"
Degan's response is like a program set in advance and waiting to be triggered.
Back to Milan?
You were the ones who asked me to get out of here, but now you want me to go back. What did you do earlier?
Digan really doesn't want to go back to Milan. Not only doesn't want to go back, but he is also going to teach AC Milan a hard lesson on the court, so that those who looked down on him can take a good look at how the garbage he threw away was captured by San Siro.
This time will not be long, because in the next game, Atlanta will visit San Siro and challenge the powerful AC Milan.
