All-around center

On December 21st, half of the league ended and the winter break officially entered.

Real Madrid also entered vacation mode immediately after the game.

The impatient players rushed out of the training base immediately after the holiday started, like social animals scrambling to get off work.

"Hey! How about we go to Eastern Europe? I want to see the snow there!"

In the locker room, Marcelo looked at Benzema with interest.

Benzema shook his head: "It's too cold over there, you probably won't be able to adapt."

After that, he pointed to his calf and said, "The snow over there will cover it up to the knees."

"real or fake?"

Marcelo was even more excited.

The images of white snow, pure white world, and snow-covered shacks all hit his head.

Seeing Marcelo's excitement, Suk couldn't help but said, "You may fantasize about some wonderful things, but I want to tell you, as a Croatian, there are none of these! Unless you go to some scenic spots."

"In most cases, when it snows over there, it will be cleared by plows to the roadside, so there will not be white snowdrifts, but mixed with soil. Looking at the dirty snowdrifts, I believe you will not I want to jump in!"

"If the weather gets warmer, don't be too happy. After the snow melts, it will merge with the dirt on the ground and turn into dirty puddles. If you wear white shoes, you will stand on tiptoe. Even then, your shoes will get dirty! When you go home at night, you will find that after the temperature drops sharply, the snow turns into ice, which increases your risk of falling while walking. "

Suk waved his hand and said, "To put it bluntly, there is nothing there except cold!"

Marcelo looked at Su Ke blankly.

"Is that true?"

Suk shrugged; "You can verify it."

Marcelo turned to look at Benzema, who shrugged and pointed at Suker; "He knows better than me!"

"Okay!" Marcelo was a little disappointed; "Let's change places."

Not long after, Ramos walked in with a newspaper in his arm.

Ramos looked at Suker and shook his head and said, "You really signed a big contract! If you had known earlier, you would have eaten more."

"What big order?"

Marcelo asked curiously.

Ramos handed over the newspaper.

Marcelo started to watch and saw a line of letters on the front page of "Marca".

"Suk and Nike have reached a new endorsement cooperation, signing a ten-year contract with an endorsement fee of 300 million euros! 》

"Three to three hundred million?" Marcelo opened his mouth wide.

His current main income is the salary paid by the club, although some commercial endorsements are not of high quality.

If Su Ke's money is divided over ten years, he will have an income of 30 million euros a year.

It is also a very generous income after tax.

Marcelo's current salary is 1.9 million euros per year. He may not be able to earn this much money in his career. Suker earned it in one year, and that's not counting salary.

"By the way, what's Su Ke's salary?" Marcelo asked blankly.

Benzema sighed.

When Su Ke dared to speak, Marcelo covered his ears; "I don't want to know!"

Suk shrugged.

Benzema sighed; "Don't compare with him, forget it, let's go on vacation."

"Go to hell!" Marcelo said bitterly; "I'm not qualified to take a vacation!"

Su Ke immediately gave a thumbs up.

So enlightened!

Suk left and began his daily life of hard work.

His vacations were filled with various commercial activities and shooting advertisements. He had almost no time for vacations, only a few days.

Ramos believes that this is also the tragedy of a top star.

It’s not fun to play!

Unlike him, he can allocate his vacation time freely.

During this holiday, Ramos' main training task is to improve his physical fitness.

When he plays as a full-back, he needs physical flexibility in order to deal with various difficult and flexible forwards.

But when he moved to the central defender position, his tasks changed.

He needs Bing harder!

From the first day of the vacation, Ramos began to enter his training plan.

The vacation is only for two weeks.

This winter break is not long.

But combined with a reasonable diet and training, it is enough to gain some weight and increase muscle mass.

After giving up flexibility, Ramos will start to turn his body into a hard lump.

He made a detailed training plan for his day.

On the first day of the holiday, Ramos got up early and had a hearty breakfast.

In the past, in order to reduce the burden on his stomach, he would not eat so much for breakfast.

But he needed to gain weight, so he ate more.

After eating, Ramos stood in the house for a while to stimulate digestion, then walked to the warehouse and pulled out a huge tire from inside.

This tire should be a tire used on a bulldozer, almost as big as Ramos's height.

Ramos found a thick rope from the warehouse and tied the tire tightly, and tied the other end to his waist.

Ramos dragged the tire to the outskirts of his property.

Since it is a farm, most of the roads here are brown.

Standing at the door, dragging a huge tire behind him, Ramos pulled up his sleeves and took a deep breath.

boom!

Ramos started running wildly along the dirt road, bringing dust from the tires behind him.

Speeding all the way, along the dirt road, running towards the far end of Sa Ya Zi.

Half an hour later, accompanied by dust, Ramos returned to the front of the house.

At this time, Ramos was sweating profusely and his training clothes were soaked.

"Not enough weight!"

Ramos frowned.

He walked into the warehouse, took out two leg sandbags and a waist sandbag again, and tied them to his legs and waist respectively.

The sandbag on the waist can just stop the pulling of the rope, which can cause skin damage and pain.

After getting ready, Ramos started sprinting again, bringing up a sky full of dust.

A secluded training facility in Madrid.

Although the facilities are dilapidated, they are fully functional.

A figure with an afro is doing weight-bearing squats. His legs are shaking a little, but they are extremely fast between ups and downs. This is to train the explosive power of the legs.

After several rapid ups and downs, the rhythm changed and started to slow down again.

This increases leg endurance.

After several consecutive sets, Marcelo fell backwards and fell to the dusty mat.

At the door, a fat figure looked at Marcelo and said: "You are considered the main force now, do you still need to train so hard? Isn't it good to go on vacation?"

Marcelo turned his head and said, "What a main force. Apart from Suker and the captain, there is no absolute main force in Real Madrid now. As long as the performance is not good, he will be replaced immediately."

"That doesn't have to be like this. Everyone is on vacation, so you should take a break too."

Marcelo: "Do you really think they are on vacation? Of course, some people will be on vacation, but guys who are interested in competing for the main team are training secretly. Real Madrid is a giant, do you really think that competition within the team is so easy? Now the football team The team is in the process of reorganization and there is no main force in the absolute sense. This is an opportunity for everyone. Before the main lineup is reshaped, as long as they can perform enough, they can be selected as the starting main force."

Marcelo said seriously; "No one will give up this opportunity!"

The store manager blinked and said, "Didn't you say that Benzema went home? He should be on vacation in France."

"Do you really think he's on vacation?" Marcelo sneered.

Benzema is under less pressure?

Suker, Higuain and Raul are all his direct competitors.

What's more, the club seems to have the intention of continuing to introduce strikers in the winter window. Can Benzema relax?

I'm afraid I'm not training secretly.

France, Paris, Leon training base.

Leon Training Base is for professional players, providing professional and accurate regular training plans. There are rich coaching resources here, and many players will choose to cooperate with this training base.

Benzema also developed a two-week training plan at the Leon training base.

Wearing a discreet tracksuit, Benzema warmed up by shaking his joints, turning to ask: "Where do we start?"

"Two weeks is too short, and the time for improvement is limited, so more strengthening training is needed to focus on flexibility and muscles." A personal trainer said; "The first is muscle strengthening, which is conducive to improving explosive power, and at the same time it can Make your muscles stronger and move faster. Flexibility training can make you more unpredictable. Finally, the core is the key. A strong core can help you a lot! "

Benzema nodded: "Let's get started!"

Real Madrid players seemed to have a tacit understanding during the holidays and were training secretly.

No one wants to fall behind, and no one wants to be left behind in the competition.

Except for one person, of course!

December 27th, just one week has passed since the holiday.

Someone was carried to the Madrid Medical Examination Center.

Pepe's left foot is in a cast and he is sitting in a wheelchair. His agents are pushing him, followed by Casillas and Pellegrini.

Pellegrini looked extremely ugly.

Casillas looked helpless.

It is said that Pepe was diving while on vacation. He dived hard and hit a rock under the sea. Due to the buoyancy of the sea water, the hit was not too serious, but there was a slight bone fracture in his calf and he needed to rest for a while. time.

Pepe lowered his head, feeling very embarrassed himself.

After all, this big mistake happened.

He was injured, not during a game but overdoing it on vacation.

Seeing Pellegrini's livid expression, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Casillas also felt helpless.

He was enjoying his vacation at home, and when he was suddenly called over, he felt quite helpless when he saw this scene.

"The recovery period will take some time, and we don't even rule out the possibility of being reimbursed for the season."

The doctor made a diagnosis, which made Pepe look a little panicked.

Pellegrini's face turned purple.

Casillas looked at the two people, took the initiative to negotiate with the doctor, and sent them out.

"I hate players who don't have enough self-discipline, and I hate players who don't love themselves enough."

Pellegrini lowered his voice, but it was still filled with irrepressible anger.

"If anything happens to us this season, you can't shirk your responsibility, so take care of yourself!"

After that, Pellegrini turned and left.

His attitude was extremely resolute, revealing a toughness and anger.

Pepe lowered his head and said nothing. He also regretted it very much.

However, there seems to be no way to save it now.

Maybe his career at Real Madrid will come to an end?

It's not a pleasant thing to piss off a head coach.

Casillas also sighed, comforted Pepe a little, and then turned and left.

Pepe spent this day in great pain and suffering.

He even imagined being purged by Pellegrini, leaving Real Madrid, and ultimately wandering, ending his career without any achievements.

And all this is caused by my own negligence.

Thinking about this, Pepe couldn't sleep and kept her eyes open until the next day.

At noon the next day, footsteps were heard at the door of the ward.

Squeak!

The sound of a door opening.

"It's really strange~ I broke my bones while diving, and the whole of Spain is your own piece of news!"

Suk was leaning against the door, wearing a brown woolen coat, simple black trousers and a turtleneck sweater.

Kick, kick, kick!

Suk stepped on his leather shoes and walked to Pepe and sat down next to him. He saw Pepe's eyes were bloodshot.

The whole person's mental state was very bad, obviously stimulated by the pressure.

Injuries are inevitable.

But injuries during non-game periods, especially during holidays, may result in reimbursement for the season. This is something the head coach cannot tolerate.

"What did Pellegrini say to you?"

Suk picked up the apple from the side and took a bite.

Pepe raised his head, with a hint of hope in his eyes; "He said, let me take care of myself."

Suk nodded; "That's true."

"There is a lot of pressure on Pellegrini now. I guess you don't know. The senior management is quite critical of him. There may be a possibility of a coaching change. If he can't get enough satisfactory answers this season, he will pack up and leave." ”

"If you cause this incident now, won't it speed up his departure?"

Pepe's eyes widened.

He didn't expect that things would be so serious.

It is difficult for ordinary players to have access to news from the club's top management. Suker and Casillas learned about this through Florentino, but they had no access to Florentino at all.

If Pellegrini eventually leaves, it is not impossible for this guy to be cruel and want to destroy himself.

"You have a solution, right?"

Pepe turned to look at Suk.

This guy has a great influence in Real Madrid. Su Ke is determined to protect himself, and Florentino also wants to give face.

Suk ate the apple slowly and said nothing.

He was waiting for Pepe to express his opinion.

If you don't express your opinion, why should I help you?

Pepe is impulsive, but not without brains.

Suk's actions made him understand immediately.

"I'll follow you from now on!"

Pepe said suddenly.

Su Ke put down the apple, clapped his hands, and said with a smile, "Wise choice, you can't join the Spanish gang, you might as well follow me."

"Just wait." Su Ke smiled, stood up and clapped his hands: "Also! Don't sleep, prepare to receive an important guest in the afternoon!"

At first, Pepe was a little relaxed, and suddenly a feeling of sleepiness came over him, but Suk asked him not to sleep again, so he could only harden.

Soon, Suk turned around and walked out of the ward, driving his car straight to Florentino's manor.

Florentino was wearing a sun hat, holding scissors and a bag in his hand. Before getting off the grape trellis, he said helplessly: "Why do you come over every time I want to pick grapes?"

Su Ke: "Coincidence! Absolutely a coincidence!"

Florentino shook his head and pointed to the wicker chair next to him and said, "Sit down and chat!"

Su Ke and Florentino did not hide it, and directly informed each other of their demands.

"You want to save Peipei?"

Florentino asked.

Suker nodded; "Yes, he is a player with great potential. I think you also know this. He will bring great help to Real Madrid in the future."

Florentino took a sip of red wine and said, "But I said I won't interfere in the first team's affairs. If I interfere now, what's the difference between me and Calderon?"

Su Ke suddenly smiled.

Florentino did not refuse.

"I'm not asking you to interfere. You just need to visit Pepe. You just need to show your face."

Suk said with a smile.

Florentino thought for a moment, then laughed and said, "You want to put pressure on Pellegrini?"

"First you went to visit Peppa Pig, and then I came again! Is there such a coincidence in the world?"

Suk smiled; "What a coincidence!"

"Okay!" Florentino nodded; "Pepe is a player of Real Madrid. He is injured. As the president of the club, I have an obligation to visit. When will we go?"

"Now!" Su Ke scratched his head and continued; "You go there by yourself. I asked for leave and have to go back to continue filming the commercial."

Florentino was surprised; "The filming hasn't been finished yet? How many endorsements have you received?"

Su Ke said awkwardly; "A little bit, just a little bit left!"

In the afternoon, Florentino visited Pepe's ward in person to greet him.

Pepe was stunned.

He knew that Su Ke was very influential with Florentino, but he didn't expect that he would just invite him.

The two shook hands, exchanged pleasantries and even took photos.

The next day, Marca reported all this.

Pellegrini also saw the news on this day.

"Florentino appeared in Pepe's ward. The president of Real Madrid was very concerned about the players' injuries. 》

Pellegrini looked at the news and frowned.

Soon, he couldn't help but sigh again.

First Suker, then Florentino.

Is it really such a coincidence?

I guess this is what Su Ke meant, but it's hard to say it directly.

Suk wants to protect Peipei, which is sending a signal to him.

Pepe is mine, no need to touch him!

Pellegrini felt aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do about it.

This is the result of the head coach not having enough say in the locker room.

It is also the influence brought by a top player.

In this regard, Pellegrini is really no match for Suker.

If he still touched Pepe, Suk would probably confront him.
