Chapter 1469 Goal: Five consecutive championships
At noon the day after defeating Barcelona [-]-[-], Real Madrid held their annual Christmas dinner in the Bernabéu's honor room, inviting political and business celebrities from all walks of life to witness the Club World Cup that Real Madrid had just won, once again achieving a Grand Slam.

The coming [-] is undoubtedly a successful season for Real Madrid, and the team is almost invincible.

Especially just defeated Barcelona at home, successfully shortened the point gap, and rekindled the team's hope.

As in previous years, Real Madrid's Christmas dinner attracted media gatherings from all over the world, and this year even more.

In the past two months, the outside world has been rumored that Yang Yang will leave Real Madrid and return to Ajax after the end of this season. The Dutch media have even vowed that this transfer is a certainty.

But Real Madrid officials have always denied this. Regarding Yang Yang’s delay in renewing his contract, Real Madrid’s technical director Valdano said the most, “We believe he will stay in Real Madrid!”

This obviously cannot dispel the doubts in the hearts of the media and fans.

In the past two months, there has been no movement within Real Madrid, and the players have never mentioned Yang Yang to the outside world. Coach Zidane has responded several times that this is Yang Yang's private matter. He refused to express his position, but he also reiterated that Yang Yang is a player of Real Madrid and the most important player of Real Madrid.

There are media rumors that Yang Yang chose to leave Real Madrid because he had conflicts with Florentino. The reason is that in October, when Yang Yang participated in the FIFA Awards Conference and won the World Player of the Year again, Florentino did not appear on the scene as in previous years, but sent congratulations on the official website of Real Madrid.

The media and fans have not seen Yang Yang and Florentino appearing in front of the camera at the same time for a long time, which provides some so-called "evidence" for the rumors, so many media want to take the opportunity of Real Madrid's Christmas dinner to witness whether the relationship between the two is really that bad.

But obviously, they were disappointed!

……

Florentino came very early. He is the host and needs to come to the scene early to greet the guests. When facing the media, he is still as kind as ever.

Although many people think that the Real Madrid chairman is cruel and ruthless, no one can deny that, at least face to face, the Real Madrid chairman is definitely a gentle philanthropist.

In an interview with the media, the chairman of Real Madrid first expressed his satisfaction with the team's achievements in the past year, thanked the players, coaching staff and staff, and at the same time he especially thanked Yang Yang.

"He is an incredible player. I think it is difficult for other players to be as successful as Yang Yang. He has reached the limit of humanity. He works hard every day and is willing to sacrifice for the team. He is the best player."

As for the team, Florentino also believes, "We are in the golden age of the team, even the peak period in the history of the team, just like in the Di Stefano era, the team was composed of the top players and coaches. They led Real Madrid to create a new peak."

The media quickly shifted the topic to rumors from outside media, and the Real Madrid chairman said he had seen similar news.

"I have no way to respond, because I don't think it's true. Yang Yang has never talked to me about this matter. You know, I have nothing to talk to him about. If he wants to leave Real Madrid, he will definitely tell me, but he didn't say it. I don't believe the rumors from the outside world."

Florentino also took the initiative to talk about Yang Yang's contribution to Real Madrid, "I brought him to the Bernabeu. In the past nine years, he has brought seven Champions Leagues to the team. He is the greatest scorer and the greatest player in the history of the club. This is not what I said, but what Di Stefano said."

"Yang Yang is destined to be a legend in the history of Real Madrid. Real Madrid is his home. I don't think he has any reason to leave his home. I believe he will continue to stay in the team until he retires."

And when the media asked whether there was a conflict with Yang Yang, Florentino smiled and shook his head, "How is it possible?"

Just at this time, Zidane arrived at the Bernabeu Stadium with Real Madrid players one after another.

Seeing the appearance of the Real Madrid players, the media on the scene immediately got excited, and they paid special attention to the reactions of Florentino and Yang Yang.

As a result, to their great disappointment, after Zidane took the initiative to hug Florentino and walked into the room of honor, Yang Yang also hugged Florentino with a smile and stood beside him at the invitation of the Real Madrid chairman.

"They said, you have conflicts with me." Florentino pointed at the media and smiled.

Yang Yang couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand again, and hugged Florentino's shoulder affectionately. This action was more powerful than any explanation, and let everyone at the scene clearly know how could there be any conflict between the two?
"Florentino is the person I respect the most. I still remember that he brought me to the Bernabeu. This was the greatest decision in my career. I won everything here, and Real Madrid gave me everything. Trust, support, affirmation... I have been here for the ninth year, and I love this club deeply."

When the media asked Yang Yang about the outside rumors that he would leave Real Madrid this summer, Yang Yang first smiled and said it was fake news, "I don't think about anything now, I only care about one thing, and that is how to help Real Madrid continue to win and continue to win more championships."

This is certainly not the answer the media wanted, but Yang Yang did not give them a chance to continue asking questions. Florentino obviously did not want Yang Yang to be pressed by the media, so he took the initiative to terminate the interview.

……

"Thank you, Florentino."

After walking into the dining room of the honor room, Yang Yang and Florentino did not walk towards the crowd, but stood in a corner where no one was there.

This thanks is because Florentino just rescued him.

Florentino patted Yang Yang's shoulder lightly, but sighed again, "Have you decided?"

Yang Yang first raised his head, glanced at the ceiling, took a deep breath, looked at the chairman of Real Madrid again, and nodded slightly.

"Now, there should be a press conference in Amsterdam, and Keizer is out of class!"

Just two days ago in the knockout round of the Dutch Cup, Ajax drew [-]-[-] with Twente in an away game, and then did not perform well in overtime. They lost to their opponents in a penalty shootout and missed a good chance to advance.

As a result, Ajax has suffered defeats on all fronts this season. Even in the Eredivisie, Ajax performed well, beating Eindhoven [-]-[-], but still trailing Eindhoven by five points. The possibility of a reversal is unlikely. This made everyone see the team's big defeat on all fronts.

After losing to Twente, Keizer completely lost the trust of the locker room and management, so Van Gaal made the decision to change coaches. The head coach of the second team, Ajax star Reziger, will temporarily serve as the acting coach until the end of the season.

"Florentino, I hope you believe that I love Real Madrid very much, and I very much hope to stay and continue to play for it. I won everything here, and I hope to continue, but you know, there are some things I really want to do, and I have to do it." Yang Yang said very frankly.

Florentino understood Yang Yang's personality. He stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder lightly, "I don't really understand, but I understand you and can feel the difficulty of your decision."

"This is also an opportunity, Florentino." Yang Yang forced a smile, "Mbappe is a very good young man with great potential. He should get more opportunities and exercise, and Vinicius, I have seen his game video, he has great potential, and he should also get more opportunities."

"Azar, Suarez, De Bruyne, Asensio, Isco... We have many, many outstanding young people. I think, from another perspective, my departure is also a good opportunity for them."

Florentino understood what Yang Yang meant, and Real Madrid needed to make changes.

Originally Florentino meant to continue to adjust the team around Yang Yang, but Yang Yang's departure is not a bad thing for Real Madrid, but it gave Real Madrid a chance to change and adjust.

Modric and David Silva are both old. In the past few years, championships and honors have been softened. Many players have obviously slacked off. Real Madrid's performance this season has obviously declined a lot compared to before, and many players are like this.

Yang Yang is also 31 years old. Even if he stays and plays for two or three years, Real Madrid will have to metabolize sooner or later.

As for bringing the old with the new, it sounds ideal, but in reality?

Will the existence of Yang Yang really not hinder Mbappe's development?
Hazard, Suarez, Isco, Asensio and others have been under Yang Yang's wings all these years, but could they really not do without Yang Yang?
Just like Florentino sent Raul and Casillas away with his own hands, the difference is that Yang Yang left a little earlier.

"Florentino, I can guarantee that in the next six months, I will do everything I can to help Real Madrid move forward on all fronts. I hope the team can win another triple crown, because I know that five consecutive championships is your dream, and it is also our dream."

Florentino also felt Yang Yang's sincerity, and at the same time, the chairman of Real Madrid knew that he had already made a decision.

"I respect your decision, Yang, but I also hope you can promise me one thing."

"You said."

"Real Madrid will always be your home. Whenever you want to come back, call me at any time. Today Ajax encountered trouble, and you went back without hesitation. I hope you promise me that if Real Madrid encounters trouble in the future and needs you, I hope you can come back without hesitation like today."

"Yes, no problem!" Yang Yang agreed very readily.

Even if Florentino didn't say it, Yang Yang would definitely do it.
