At the agreed place in the evening, Yun Sheng and Liu Sheng arrived at the restaurant on time.
This is a German restaurant. In this peak tourist season, the business is obviously very good, even more than the Spanish restaurant opened by Casillas yesterday. The lobby of the restaurant is almost full.
Yun Sheng and Liu Sheng, led by the waiter, walked up to the second floor and arrived at the door of a luxurious private room.
Entering the private room, Metzelder was already waiting in the room.
It is worth mentioning that there was another person beside Metzelder who was also in the house.
Seeing Yun Sheng and Liu Sheng enter the room, Metzelder stood up to greet them.
"Coach Yun Sheng, Manager Liu, I will take you to taste authentic German food today."
Liu Sheng said with a smile: "I rarely eat German food, so I may not be able to taste whether it is authentic or not, but your coach Yun Sheng has lived in Germany for many years and often eats German food."
"Haha, don't worry, the German food here is absolutely authentic."
Metzelder and Liu Sheng were chatting, but Yun Sheng's target was not on them.
Next to Metzelder, a tall and muscular man stood in the room, looking at Yun Sheng in front of him with a calm expression.
Yun Sheng took two steps forward and looked at this person with a smile: "Michael, it's nice to see you here."
The German-looking man also shook hands with Yun Sheng politely: "It is my honor to meet the famous championship coach in Madrid."
Although this stranger had never dealt with Yun Sheng, Yun Sheng was already familiar with his name. He was the captain, representative, and core midfielder of the German football generation - Michael Ballack!
Yunsheng told Metzelder before that the last piece of the transfer puzzle he wanted to sign was Ballack!
Ballack, who is 33 years old this year, still has no trace of weather on his face. He is the kind of star with great mental attributes. Whenever you see him, he always looks strong and determined.
Yun Sheng can tell a lot about Ballack's football career.
He once experienced the Kaiserslautern myth in the 1998 season, and also helped Bayer Leverkusen become the "Sanya King" in the 2010 season. During his transfer to Bayern, he became the absolute core of Bayern and won multiple championship trophies. , multiple times German Footballer of the Year.
In the summer of 2006, in pursuit of his Champions League dream, he moved from Bayern to Chelsea on a free transfer. During his four years of playing, he also won the Premier League and Cup titles.
Although he has not won the Champions League title he has always wanted, and has repeatedly lost in the finals during his national team career, Ballack is still one of the best midfield stars of this era. He has a tenacious style, both offensive and defensive skills, and accurate long-range. The greatest feature.
Although his contract with Chelsea expires in one year, the two parties have decided to break up peacefully, which is also related to Chelsea's recruitment of younger players.
Looking at Balak in front of him, Yun Sheng was very happy.
He originally planned to finish handling the matters in Madrid and go to London to find Ballack and lobby him personally. Unexpectedly, he met the German midfielder in Madrid. What a coincidence.
The four of them sat down and chatted while eating.
Metzelder once again expressed his gratitude to Yun Sheng and Liu Sheng.
"Coach Yunsheng, Hildebrand told me before that you were willing to help me. I still didn't believe it. After all, we don't know each other, but I didn't expect you to lend a helping hand in a friendly way. Thank you very much."
"Manager Liu, during this time in Madrid, you have been taking care of the details of my treatment. I am extremely grateful."
Liu Sheng smiled and said: "Christopher, this is all arranged by coach Yunsheng. He is the one you should thank most."
Yun Sheng waved his hand: "Now that you have moved to Juventus, I am helping my players with their treatment. It is just a private matter. You are welcome."
The three of them chatted about recent events, and Barak beside them was listening quietly.
Although Ballack is a leader in the national team, he is just a guest today, and with his calm character, he is not the kind of person who is familiar with him.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Metzelder changed the subject and started talking about Ballack: "Michael came to Spain on business this time and happened to see me. I'm very happy to be able to introduce you to him."
Liu Sheng smiled and asked Ballack: "Mr. Ballack, I heard that you are planning to leave Chelsea. Do you have any plans to join a La Liga team?"
Ballack nodded: "Well, this time I came here to talk about the transfer."
"So serious? Don't you need to keep it secret?"
"It doesn't matter, the news that I am about to leave Chelsea has already been announced by The Sun and everyone knows it."
"Are you planning to join Real Madrid?" Although he knew it was impossible, Liu Sheng still asked jokingly.
Ballack shook his head: "Even veterans like Raul and Guti, Real Madrid think they are too old. I, who is also 33 years old, are not in Real Madrid's sight. The person who talked to me about the transfer this time is just It’s just a newly promoted polo team.”
Metzelder frowned: "Michael, you are still in good shape now. There is no need to lower your worth and go to a relegation team."
"But they can promise me the main position," Ballack said. "For me now, being able to play happily is the most important thing. Honors and championships are no longer considered by people of my age. matter."
As soon as Ballack finished speaking, Yun Sheng suddenly asked: "Don't you care about honors and championships anymore?"
Ballack was stunned. He didn't know why Yun Sheng asked: "Even if I care, what can I do? I am already 33 years old. Unless I go to a wealthy club and sit on the bench, waiting for the championship, there may be a chance, but for me It is said that being able to play football is more important than winning the championship."
Yun Sheng sighed. He looked at Barak sincerely and talked about some past events.
"Michael, although you don't know me, I have been following you for a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that I should be considered your fan. When you were playing in the Bundesliga, I was studying in Germany, and I studied sports. Management, I often play against Bayern in the course and I always hear your name.”
"In the last decade, you were definitely one of the best midfielders in Europe, at least one of the top three! But I feel sorry for you because you have always had bad luck and never won enough championships. The 'King of Sanya' in Bayer Leverkusen in the 20102 season, the runner-up of the German team in the 2002 World Cup and the 2008 European Cup, and the tragedy at Stamford Bridge when you were at Chelsea, many championships that should be yours ended up missing you."
"Michael, you deserve more! You should not give up your championship dream early. You are still the top midfielder in Europe. You are still capable and qualified to chase championships and realize more dreams in your football career!"
