Chapter 327 Capello joins!

"Coach Fabio, I sincerely invite you to coach Florence. I believe that under your leadership, Florence will definitely achieve greater glory!"

"Mr. Corleon, please forgive me for not being able to agree. No matter what, the Milan Club has been grateful to me. I can't overcome this hurdle when I coach other Serie A teams so quickly." Although I was very interested in coaching a powerful team like Fiorentina, the middle-aged man hesitated for a while and rejected Zhuang Mingge's invitation.

"Do you, Mr. Capello, don't you want to prove yourself in front of Berlusconi?" After hearing Capello's reply that he refused to coach, Zhuang Mingge did not give up, but continued to lobby the other party, trying to change the other party's thoughts.

That's right, the person Zhuang Mingge is persuading is Fabio Capello, one of the two head coaches who created the Milan dynasty.

In Zhuang Mingge's view, Ranieri's successor must be proficient in tactical changes and must also have a certain ability to lead the team to suppress these big-name players in the first team of Fiorentina, especially "dangerous elements" such as Effenberg and Dibiagio. Otherwise, internal friction alone will likely make Fiorentina all the big players next season.

Among the head coaches Zhuang Mingge is optimistic about, Heathfield is in a honeymoon period with Dortmund at this time, so naturally he will not consider the possibility of changing jobs in Fiorentina; Trapatoni has just taken over Bayern Munich, and the old coach is preparing to make great achievements in German football. It is impossible to switch to Fiorentina without even playing in a formal game. This violates his professional ethics as a head coach.

Rehagel's performance at Bayern proves that he cannot lead a team with too many stars. Van Gaal's bad temper and ignorant thinking will definitely cause dissatisfaction among many players if he is put in Fiorentina. As for Wenger, let him learn to pay attention to defense before talking about it...

Therefore, Fabio Capello, who has terminated his work contract with AC Milan, has become the best choice for Florence at present.

When Capello heard Zhuang Mingge say this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

Although Capello's coaching career started with AC Milan, it was precisely because of his outstanding record in Milan that he made him one of the top Italian coaches. Therefore, Capello, it is unlikely that he would have no complaints about AC Milan. Not to mention the far-reaching, just talk about the resignation incident two months ago. The open reason was that Capello resigned because of his poor performance in leading the team. But anyone with a discerning eye knew that the fuse of the entire incident was Berlusconi's big mouth saying that "any coach in AC Milan can win the championship now."

It is obviously impossible to say that Capello has no intention of revenge on the other side. As for whether Capello does not want to coach an Italian team other than AC Milan? Zhuang Mingge said that in his previous life, the gold medal coach at least coached Rome and Juventus, so this situation is obviously unlikely.

After a long period of ideological struggle, the arrogant Capello was finally attracted by the huge temptation of "slapping the scallops in front of Lusconi". He agreed to Zhuang Mingge's invitation to serve as the head coach of the Florence Club.

When Capello signed his name on a four-year work contract with an annual salary of $2 million, the two sides immediately entered the next topic, which was Florence's summer signings.

"Since Fiorentina has just won the triple-champion this season, although Robert Baggio and other players left the team one after another, the team is still there. Therefore, I think the team does not need to make a big call in the summer transfer market, but only needs to focus on strengthening in some key positions." As a professional football coach, it is obvious that Capello is very concerned about the movements of various clubs, especially Florence, who invited him to coach. Capello spent a whole night studying the current situation of the club, and at this time he poured out all the prepared things.

"So Fabio, do you have any specific views on the team's signings?" Although he has made some decisions about the team's signings, the tradition of Italian clubs has always been that the head coach must not ask about the team's specific transfer, Zhuang Mingge still asked Capello cautiously. After all, this head coach is not as good as Ranieri as he can handle it at will. If he doesn't like any player, he will really make the move to let the player sit in the stands for a season.

"First of all, the central defender position. The central defender combination of Ferrara and Nesta is the world's top, which is undoubtedly the case. However, due to the departure of Filicano, the team's bench thickness of the team's defense line has dropped significantly. Although Viljoward can still maintain a good competitive state, he is already 37 years old and obviously cannot deal with too intensive events. Matrazi is a good central defender, but with his current strength, he can only serve as a last substitute in Fiorentina. I think it's better to find a way to loan him out and let him participate in more games to accumulate experience. Therefore, I think the club needs to find a reliable player to serve as the first substitute in the central defender position."

Capello did not take the opportunity to recommend the players he liked to Zhuang Mingge. After all, Zhuang Mingge has never had a parallel product every time he made a move in the transfer market over the years, and he has also discovered many new stars with extraordinary potential. His vicious vision has been recognized by many industry insiders. Therefore, Capello is quite relieved that this boss will definitely not bring him a lot of players he doesn't need like the clever Berlusconi.

"Well, I think so too." Zhuang Mingge said in agreement, and handed Capello a piece of information, "Fabio, see how this player is? Does it meet your conditions?"

Capello took the document and looked carefully: "Jap Stam, central defender, born on July 17, 1972, is currently playing for Eindhoven Club in Eredes. He is 1.91 meters tall. His advantages are his strong body, fierce stealing, excellent heading ability, and slow turning..."

Capello kept reading this information, and liked the player named Stam the more he looked at it. He believed that this Dutch center back was enough to make up for one of the biggest weaknesses in Fiorentina's defense line, that is, the shortcomings in physical confrontation. After all, Ferrara and Nesta are both defenders who defend with defensive skills and judgment. Once they encounter a powerful center who relies on their bodies to make a living, it is really hard to say.

And the appearance of Stam will effectively strengthen this.

At the same time, Capello was also secretly surprised by Fiorentina's scouting system. According to the information in his hand, Stam was a player who only transferred freely from William II to Eindhoven last year and was not very famous in the Netherlands. As a result, Fiorentina has established a detailed file.
