PS3: Today is the 49th birthday of the melancholy prince Robert Baggio. I wish Baggio a happy 49th birthday here~

"Hey? It turned out to be Alessandro. What gusts remind you of calling me?" Capello, who was supervising the daily training of the players on the training ground, picked up the phone that was adjusted to vibration mode at the reminder of the assistant coach, but unexpectedly found that the other end of the phone was Alessandro Nesta, his former disciple when coaching in Fiorentina.

"Coach Capello, long time no see." After a brief polite approach on the phone, Nesta got to the point, "That's right, this time I called, mainly to make a deal with you."

"Trade?" Capello frowned and repeated the word in confusion. Then, as if he had suddenly remembered something, he quickly handed over the task of leading the team training to the assistant coach beside him and hurried into his office at the training base. After all, the training ground is not a good place to say such things: "Do you have any ideas about the All-Star Game?"

"Yes, it's indeed a deal about the All-Star lineup." Nesta responded so quickly to Capello and replied in a positive tone, "Mr. Capello, since we are all acquaintances, I'm going to be short and I won't go around the phone with you on the phone. To put it simply, 'we' don't want to see the Zebra Ten in the All-Star Game!"

When talking about the word "we", Nestadt emphasized, obviously, he was suggesting that it was not his own opinion that he would kick Pierro out of the All-Star game.

"..." Capello was not a fool. Of course he could hear the meaning of Nesta's emphasis on the word. He was silent for a while before he spoke, "Pierro is what you all mean?"

“To be precise, it is what we ‘all’ Florentine members mean.”

Hearing Nesta say this, Capello couldn't help but fall into silence again. He clearly remembered that Fiorentina had six players selected to start the Italian All-Star team this time. So, even if he did not cooperate with Nesta and their actions, these players had the ability to completely isolate Pierro from the team.

The most important thing is that Nesta’s Fiorentina system does not refer to Fiorentine players, including Robert Baggio, Deco, Matrazi, and Zanetti, who have played in Fiorentina and still maintain good relationships with them after leaving Purple Lily. If these players are included, then Fiorentina’s power is enough to control the entire Italian All-Star team!

So when Nesta said "this is what all members of the Florence system meant", Capello understood that Pierro's fate was destined no matter what choice he made. The only difference was whether Pierro spent time on the bench or acted as a spectator off the court.

Since that's the case, it's better to take this opportunity to gain some benefits for yourself. Thinking of this, Capello couldn't help but feel happy and thought that since it was a deal, you have to pay me some benefits, otherwise, hum...

During the period of waiting for Capello's reply, Nesta was also very nervous. After all, unlike Trapatoni, who had to rely on the Fiorentina system to maintain his job, Capello was just working with them as the head coach of the All-Star team. In other words, Capello could not directly recruit Pierro without listening to their suggestions.

"Okay, I agree." At this time, Capello's reply finally came late, "But since I have agreed to your request, in exchange, I hope you can agree to one of my conditions."

"Well, what are the conditions?" Nesta asked curiously after receiving Capello's answer.

"I hope you can agree that I will put Antonio Casano on the bench in the All-Star Game and give him enough opportunities to perform." It turns out that like Nesta, who wanted to kick Pierro out of the All-Star Game due to irreconcilable contradictions, Capello also has his own plans - he wants Casano, a disciple, to become a member of the Italian All-Star team!

Although Capello has absolute power in choosing a substitute lineup as the head coach of the Italian All-Star team, he also knows that if Casano wants to play on this stage, he must settle the Florence system, which has a strong power in the locker room. Otherwise, with Casano's unruly personality, he will have to have a serious conflict with the Florence players.

Don't think that Capello is worrying about the trouble. This gold medal coach knows the ability of this disciple to cause trouble. Not to mention anything else, just his poor record in Rome in the past two years, Capello can talk nonstop all day and night.

"No problem." Nesta also knew that this was indeed a very reasonable condition, so he did not bargain with Capello again. "If Pierro eventually lost to the All-Star Game, then we can agree to your request."

"A word is certain." After saying that, Capello hung up the phone, then took out the All-Star substitute shortlist and drew a big fork on Pierro's name.

In this way, after a secret exchange between Nesta and Capello, the former master and apprentice, Pierro's fate of losing to this Serie A All-Star Game was determined. Casano also became a member of the Italian All-Star team through this private deal.

Of course, except for these parties, no one will know the whole story of this matter. After all, this is not something that can be put on the table. If someone really dares to show off, they will have to be the target of public criticism.

So, when Capello announced the Italian All-Star team's substitute, Casano's name appeared on this list without surprise, while Pierro failed and missed the first Serie A All-Star Game!
