Chapter 85 Castilla's New Five Eagles

Pei Gong didn't know that Li Ang had seduced his favorite disciple Isco after the game.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have praised Li Ang after he ended his hug with Mourinho.

Maybe he had to catch this little B kid and use Pei's hair dryer skills.

Mourinho once again heard the other coach praise Li Ang for his fast growth, saying that Li Ang still had many shortcomings.

But the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.

After all, with the continuous digging and reporting by Spanish media reporters, almost all La Liga coaches and fans now know that Li Ang has grown rapidly with his support.

In the past, the media said that Mourinho liked to use mature players and couldn't train young players well.

But now the more Li Ang's performance is, the more he feels proud!

It's a pity that no reporter will ask him about training young players now, otherwise he will have to pull Li Ang over and stand between him and the reporter to answer.

Well, maybe he can pull Nacho over in the future, so that the two defensive twins can show their own experience.

"Castilla has a lot of talented players in recent years. If we need to rent them in the winter window, Jose, don't be reluctant to let those young players out."

Before leaving, Pellegrini mentioned this to Mourinho jokingly.

Mourinho first agreed with a hearty smile.

But when he turned around and saw Karanka coming, Uncle Bird immediately grabbed Karanka's shoulders and quickly explained.

"Drahos, you will ask Mr. Toril from the second team to give me a list. I want the information of the three best players in Castilla this season. The description should be as detailed as possible, with both advantages and disadvantages pointed out."

Mr. Toril mentioned by Mourinho is Alberto Toril, the current head coach of Castilla.

So Karanka knew what Mourinho wanted to do as soon as he heard it.

"Let them join the first team in advance to feel the atmosphere of the game, or?"

"Let's train first. If the training performance is satisfactory, they will stay in the first team this season! This winter window, we may only make two deals, sell one player and buy another player, so that those guys can be prepared for rotation."

"Then I understand!"

Karanka agreed with a smile on his face.

Mourinho is not a whim. After Nacho proved that he has the ability to be a substitute for Arbeloa, he has already had the idea of ​​bringing more young players from Castilla to the first team.

After all, there is Li Ang in front and Nacho in the back. It's no wonder that Mourinho wants to continue to further tap talents in Castilla's "treasure house".

Even if Real Madrid is not short of money, it can buy a lot of substitutes in the transfer window if it needs them at ordinary times.

But Li Ang and Nacho have made Mourinho firm in his mind. It is always more reassuring and more convenient to use his own youth training players.

And there are indeed many outstanding young players in Castilla.

If he could find another Nacho, Mourinho would feel that he would have made a fortune.

If he could find another little lion, Li Ang

Mourinho put away the smile that subconsciously appeared on his lips, and told Karanka to hurry up and do this.

After the game that night, because it was still early, the entire Real Madrid team flew directly back to Madrid.

The next morning, Mourinho gave all the first-team players a day off and asked them to arrive at the Valdebebas base before 2 pm for a physical examination.

And Li Ang arrived half an hour early again, and then he met several old acquaintances in the base locker room.

"Damn! Did I go the wrong way?! Don't tell me I'm in Castilla's locker room now."

Li Ang's eyes widened, and the two figures who had just sat and chatted with Morata had already rushed up with laughter, and then the three of them hugged each other tightly!

"The boss didn't even tell me. I have the most say in selecting players from the second team, right? Coach Toril, you guys don't see it as clearly as I do."

Li Ang hugged his good friends and teammates from the C team and Castilla, and boasted with a smile.

"Huh~~~"

The two Real Madrid youth players who were very happy to meet Li Ang in the first team just now soon booed.

Morata also booed.

But Li Ang didn't care. He changed into his training clothes and motioned for them to go to the training ground with him to warm up.

Morata had been promoted to the first team several times before, and last year he went to the United States with the first team to participate in the pre-season training.

So today, he, the youngest of the three, is the calmest at the moment.

The other two, Carvajal and Vazquez, are now looking around with curiosity.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the four who had been playing on the training ground for a while gradually welcomed other Real Madrid first-team players.

Seeing the two becoming reserved and shy again, Li Ang did not rush them to meet the stars of the first team.

Because Casillas will do this job, and the two rookies of the first team will gradually get familiar with others during training.

He and Nacho some time ago both came this way.

As for integrating into the first team, no matter how much you say, it is better to show stable performance in the game and training.

"Don't be nervous, relax a little, don't be too reserved with the boss, just show your usual performance."

Nacho, who had just greeted his old teammates, was just getting over his excitement. He scratched the back of his head when he heard what Li Ang said.

Why did this sound so familiar?

Carvajal and Vazquez were quite grateful for Li Ang's comfort.

Mourinho wanted to see the strength of several young players in training today, so he didn't waste time.

After a brief introduction and welcome, Mourinho directly asked Li Ang to take a few rookies to start recovery training with the first team.

In the subsequent tactical drill group confrontation, Li Ang, Nacho, Carvajal, and Vazquez were also assigned to the same group.

Morata went to the group of the main players and directly cooperated with Ronaldo and Higuain and other big stars.

The result of the confrontation was not unexpected. The substitute group lost two goals in 30 minutes.

No matter how fast Li Ang ran and robbed, he couldn't stand Ronaldo and Benzema's breakthrough and passing.

Moreover, when he was on the bench, without Brother Long to cooperate with him and help him occasionally, Li Ang really felt that he could not do it alone.

Carvajal and Vazquez were a little nervous.

Their performance just now could only be said to be average, far from good. Seeing this, Li Ang did not bother to reflect on his performance and comforted the two again.

Mourinho and Karanka were now evaluating the strength of three young players.

"Jesse is still too young, his body is still developing, and his game awareness needs to be polished more. Toril's intention is to let him stay in the B team for another year, and he can play in the first team next year.

Now, he thinks that Vazquez, a versatile frontcourt player, is more suitable for a rotation substitute in the first team. He is very active in defense and can play on both sides.

Morata's talent is far higher than Joselu's. Toril suggested that Morata should be trained directly.

Carvajal has always been the main right back in Castilla, and his performance is stable."

Karanka closed the tactical book where he had just recorded data and expressed his opinion.

Morata is very young, and his current performance is not as stable as Joselu, the top scorer of the second team, but his talent has been unanimously recognized by the coaches of the youth training teams.

Mourinho himself is also very optimistic about this young man, otherwise he would not have directly transferred him to the first team and taken him to the United States for training when he first came to Real Madrid.

So Uncle Bird is not opposed to training Morata.

As for Vasquez and Carvajal, Mourinho actually has no dissatisfaction with their abilities.

Even if Vasquez, who seems to be performing mediocre at present, Mourinho also plans to keep him in the first team.

In the subsequent three-line battle, Real Madrid's main players will definitely focus on the Champions League knockouts and key games in the league.

For games like the King's Cup and games against mid- and lower-level teams in the league, Mourinho needs these rotation players to top it up.

Vasquez can play on both sides and is active in defense, which is exactly the quality Mourinho likes.

The key point is, can these two youth players hold on and wait for opportunities on the bench?

Mourinho is afraid that they will complain or grumble about the lack of playing time.

In this season with a great chance of winning multiple championships, Mourinho does not want any problems within the team!

After learning about Mourinho's concerns, Karanka told Mourinho very directly not to worry.

"Why?"

"Because they are all 100% Real Madridists, just like Nacho."

Hearing Karanka's words, Mourinho was completely relieved.

At the end of the training that day, after receiving the notice that they would stay in the first team in the future, the three Castilla youth players were instantly surprised.

Morata did not expect that after today's training, he was not notified to return to Castilla, but directly became a fixed member of the Real Madrid first team!

Vazquez and Carvajal were so excited that their eyes were almost red when they hugged Leon and Nacho.

Over the years, they have seen too many of their companions leave La Fabrica and Castilla to join other teams.

They all long for the call from the first team, and they long to wear the pure white jersey to play for Real Madrid in La Liga and the Champions League.

But there are too few Castilla youth players who can successfully stay in Real Madrid's first team.

So few that even though they have seen the success of their friends Li Ang and Nacho, they can't have too many expectations in their hearts.

So it's no wonder that they are so excited.

And if they are asked whether they are willing to stay in Real Madrid's first team and play as substitutes, they will have no other answer except "willing".

Like Nacho, Carvajal and Vazquez are 100% Real Madridists.

Low wages and a small amount of playing time will not be obstacles for them to be willing to play for Real Madrid.

If it were Li Ang, he would definitely look for opportunities to play more games on loan.

But this does not prevent Li Ang from feeling sincerely happy for his friends.

He now recalled the conversation he had with Master Belleron in La Coruña.

Just take the career path you want to take and keep going.

For Nacho and others, this might be their original intention in taking the career path.

If they don't fight for Real Madrid in the end, and don't fight for honors in football for Real Madrid.

Even if they all won the Grand Slam in the end, they might still have a big regret in their hearts.

So, there is no so-called kind advice, let alone some well-known truth that "you need to play more games at the right age to improve your skills".

Li Ang only has blessings for his friends.

After the training that day.

A photo of five people smiling and taking a group photo at the training ground of the first team was also posted by Li Ang on his social media along with the release of the information of the player transfer on the official website of Real Madrid.

"I am very happy to fight side by side with my brothers again, hala madrid!!!"

After Li Ang posted this picture, it instantly caused heated discussions among the Real Madrid fans who followed him.

Most Real Madrid fans are actually familiar with Morata. This guy is tall and handsome, and he also played for the Real Madrid first team last season.

It is still difficult not to have an impression of him.

As for Carvajal and Vazquez, the first to recognize them are still the senior Real Madrid fans.

With their popularization and introduction, another part of the fans who didn't pay much attention to the second team knew that Mourinho had transferred three more youth players to the first team.

After a day of discussion, the topic gradually cooled down.

After all, it is normal for any club to transfer a few youth players to the first team in the middle of the season to feel the atmosphere of the game.

At first, Real Madrid fans also thought that Mourinho was just going to routinely pick a few youth players for them to train with the team.

But on the afternoon of October 25, when Real Madrid released the list of players for the tenth round of La Liga, Real Madrid fans instantly became restless.

Because the three new youth players who were just transferred to the first team by Mourinho will go with the team.

In other words, they are not here for the show, and they will basically be substitutes for Real Madrid's main players in the future!

This change also made the Spanish media boil.

There were voices of praise, voices of doubt, and voices asking whether Real Madrid's recruitment policy has changed.

Various voices and reports surrounding Real Madrid's youth player transfers have frequently appeared in the Spanish football world.

Florentino Perez did not release any opinions on this.

Real Madrid's current CEO Sanchez only said "We have 100% confidence in the head coach in team building" and nothing more.

However, Real Madrid fans still support and agree with Mourinho's approach.

And they enthusiastically gave these five youth training players, including Li Ang, who are about 20 years old, a loud nickname.

This nickname has already placed their unspoken ardent expectations.

"The New Five Eagles of Castilla!"

I can't finish writing now, so I can only post it first. Tomorrow, as usual, I will add 2,000 words!

Alas, I haven't stayed up late for a long time. Staying up late to watch football all of a sudden really affects my condition.

So I decided that from tomorrow on, I will not stay up late

until the Premier League and La Liga start next season.

Well, it makes sense.
