Chapter 18 Future

After reading Kaka's text message, Degan couldn't help going out to buy a newspaper. Yesterday's AC Milan game finally tied Livorno. The defending champion was tied by the unknown Livorno and was at home in San Siro. It was funny no matter how you look at it.

In the game, Sedorf scored twice, and Kaka made his debut and assisted Sedorf's second goal. His performance was unanimously recognized. Obviously, the title of Prince San Siro is still very market callous.

Anyway, he got up and had nothing to do. Degan drove to the training ground. The janman didn't stop him at all this time. After yesterday's game, as long as Italy likes football, I guess no one will know him.

Entering the venue, Degan heard a bang. Today's rest, is there anyone else coming to train besides him?

Demi!?

It's Albertini!

He is actually practicing!

Logically, Albertini doesn't need to force himself at all. As long as he trains according to the plan and occasionally performs wonderfully during the game, he can win countless praises.

Albertini on the court is training for a free kick, and the beautiful fallen ball made Degan admire it.

In his previous life, when he was in Sheffield United, Degan was also a good free kick player. His favorite was Juniorinho. After his rebirth, Degan also practiced privately. Not only could he find the feeling of his previous life, but also because of his strength now, the threat of free kick is even greater.

Albertini had sent all the ten balls in front of him into the goal and was about to turn around to pick up the ball, only to find Digan standing on the sidelines.

"Rod!? Do you want to practice?" Albertini's language has always been intermittent.

"Yes! Demy! I didn't expect you to be there too!" After saying that, Digan found that there seemed to be something wrong with his words and quickly explained, "I mean, your age is wrong! I~~~~”

In the end, Digan couldn't help laughing. Albertini looked at it and thought to himself: This is the real Digan, a shy big boy. He looks very strong, but in fact, his strength and arrogance are just to disguise or protect his fragile self-esteem.

"I know what you mean!" Albertini spoke and resolved Degan's embarrassment.

Albertini set up ten more balls, suddenly turned his head and looked at Degan and said with a smile, "Rod! Do you want to compete and use a free kick!"

Digan was stunned and walked directly to Albertini without refusing. Albertini said, "One person has five balls and lost. How about treating him to a drink at noon today?"

Degan nodded and said, "No problem!"

Albertini started first. His fallen ball can be called a solo world. The football hardly rotated in the air, and then suddenly fell into the net.

Degan is not willing to show weakness. After a run, he takes a kick. His elevator ball and Albertini's deciduous ball can be said to be similar, but the speed is faster and the fall is larger.

Four goals in a row, both of them scored, and Albertini was also a little surprised by Degan's performance and said, "Rod! You are really amazing. I really don't know what secret weapons you are hiding!"

Probably two people are familiar with each other, and Albertini's words have become more, and Degan has no sense of strangeness at the beginning. He smiled and said, "Of course, there are many more, Demi! There is another ball, I bet you won't be able to kick in!"

Albertini smiled: "That's not necessarily!"

After saying that, he ran, waved his legs and shot. This time, it was not a fallen leaf ball, but directly bypassed the wall baffle and got into the dead corner of the goal.

Seeing the goal, Albertini smiled and said, "Today's glass of wine seems to cost you money!"

"That's not necessarily!" Degan returned this sentence to Albertini.

After saying that, he retreated a long distance, then stepped on small steps to run, suddenly swinging his legs to speed up, and shot with one foot. The football slid across an S-shaped arc and also got into the net.

"Demi! As I said, I have a lot of secret weapons!"

Albertini smiled. He had not been so excited for a long time. He seemed to see the original shadow of Shevchenko on Digan, the same young and skillful.

"Let's go for a drink for your secret weapon. It's my treat!"

Digan smiled and said, "Of course I'm willing to accompany you!"

The two walked out of the training ground and went to a bar not far away, where Atlanta fans often gathered. When Albertini appeared, there was an immediate cheer in the bar. Obviously, they all respected the veteran, but when they saw Digan behind Albertini At that time, some people's faces changed. They were all extreme fans who were slapped in the face by Degan in yesterday's game.

"Let's go!"

"I'm going to let that bastard taste my fist!"

Seeing more than a dozen people surrounding him, Albertini's face changed and stood in front of Degan and whispered to him, "Rod! Don't make trouble!"

Digan, who had already started, heard this sentence and still put down his fist.

"I just brought my friends over for a drink. I don't want to cause trouble, and I don't want to be like you! So we'd better go our separate ways, how about it? Gentlemen!"

Those people were stunned, and a leading man stood up, looked at Digan and said, "Okay! Demy! I'll give you face today, boy! For the sake of your three goals yesterday, we will let you go today! But don't be complacent too early. You are still an unpopular person in Bergamo!"

"Whatever!" Degan replied carelessly.

Albertini was helpless when he heard this. The two went to the bar and asked for two beers. The eyes of the people around him made Albertini uncomfortable for a while. He even regretted the decision to come to the bar today, but Degan seemed very calm.

The two took a big sip, and Albertini took the lead in saying, "Rod! Pay attention to protect yourself. After your performance is good, you will be a public figure. Everyone is staring at you. Don't put yourself in a dangerous place!"

Digan listened to Albertini's advice. Unlike Bosc, at least Albertini's tone was not domineering.

"I know, but I have my way to deal with some clowns!"

Albertini did not continue the topic and said, "Rod! Have you ever thought about going back to Milanello in the future?"

Go back!?

Digan was stunned. He couldn't figure out what Albertini meant, whether it was his own idea or someone asked Albertini to ask.

As for whether to go back or not, Degan does not have an accurate decision. He likes to play in Atlanta, because coach Mandolini knows him, trusts him and is willing to give him a chance, but Atlanta is too small to meet Degan's ambition.

Go back?

Can he get a chance to play under the conservative Ancelotti? You know, now Milan's front line has Shevchenko. Inzaghi, a good player, is unwilling to go back to play as a substitute.

And he is just a rookie who has only participated in one game now. Can Milan like him?

"It's too early to think about this. Even if I want to go back, Milan may not like me!"

Don't you like it?

If you really don't like it, how could Galliani make that call?

Galliani naturally heard about Digan's wonderful performance. When he recalled, he also regretted the scene where he sent Digan away. In yesterday's game, the forward line of Milan, whether it was Tomasson or Shevchenko, was in no state. There was nothing he could do in the face of Livorno's barrel array. Instead, he looked like him. Degan, who threw it out like rubbish, was so powerful that one person created four goals.

In order to make up for his mistakes, Galliani wanted Albertini to explore Degan's style.

"What if Milan needs you!"

Digan doesn't want to answer this question. He is just starting out and just wants to get more opportunities in Atlanta. AC Milan is not what he should care about.

"I don't know, maybe, maybe not. There is at least one head coach who trusts me and is willing to give me a chance!"

Albertini also knows that it is too early to consider these. The era of AC Milan buying people with one game has long passed. For example, Kutuzov and Donati went to Milanello because of a wonderful goal, but they all failed.

Will Degan be the next Kutuzov?

Albertini won't think so. Degan is great and really great. Of course, these are just his opinions. Galliani won't listen to him.

"Think more about yourself in the future! Rod! You will have a bright future!"

Future!

What will happen in the future?

Sometimes Degan will also imagine. He even fantasize about winning the World Footballer's trophy before Kaka, but that's just thinking about it. He is still far from that goal.
