Chapter 2275 - 581: Unbreakable Alliance

Chapter 2275: Chapter 581: Unbreakable Alliance

"I don’t know if Kevin was talking about me, but I feel very honored. I won’t be affected by Kevin’s evaluation, and I will work even harder to improve myself."

Twente youth team coach Eric ten Hag said during an interview.

The scene shifts to Löw.

Löw bit his fingernails a few times before saying, "I don’t know or care who Ten Hag is, but the Netherlands is not a simple opponent. Their style is very similar to Ajax, and Kevin will bring something new to the Netherlands. I won’t consider Kevin a rookie coach. When a player has won the Champions League Trophy for eight consecutive years, he deserves to be taken seriously even in a coaching role."

The British were the first to find Ten Hag.

Although they also didn’t know if Huang Kaiwen was referring to him.

After Huang Kaiwen uncharacteristically accepted 24 interviews in three days, mentioning Ten Hag 331 times, this name became the hottest in European football.

Since the start of the 2004 European Cup.

There have been legends about Huang Kaiwen circulating in Europe.

The fact that Italy won the World Cup in 2006 is another piece of evidence.

There are also other rumors, like those exceptional young talents De Bruyne, Hazard, whom Huang Kaiwen supposedly decided to bring in.

This gave Huang Kaiwen’s insight a reputation equal to his football skills.

Even his joining the Netherlands coaching staff put a lot of pressure on many people.

William Hill simply made the Netherlands the biggest favorite, with odds even lower than the Spain Team.

Sir Ferguson stated to "The Times": "Kevin has always been an exceptional young man, his thinking is very forward-looking. I am ready to call him and talk about this Ten Hag. Although I have already considered my successor after retirement, if Ten Hag is indeed so outstanding, I believe he is also a great choice."

While the whole world was speculating who Ten Hag was.

The Netherlands team’s assistant coach Cocu finally answered this question.

He told the media, "Yes, it’s Eric ten Hag. Kevin thinks very highly of him. Eric was quite outstanding when he played for Ajax, and I also thought he was a wise player back then. Next, I am sure he will exert even greater energy in a coaching position."

Finishing the interview, Cocu immediately returned to the training field to report to Huang Kaiwen.

After De Boer was dismissed, his attitude improved further.

Although not being on the National Team is not a big deal, this assistant coach job does not greatly influence his future development.

However, the Netherlands locker room recording being exposed led the media to covertly label De Boer as the mole, which instantly tainted his reputation.

These Dutch legends, once outside the Netherlands, are nothing.

Not really.

There’s also Barca.

But when Barca Legend Cruyff openly criticized De Boer, it left him no way out.

Cocu certainly did not want to end up like De Boer.

"Coach, those sponsors want to add a qualification activation clause."

Gagliani said.

"Tell them to get lost."

Huang Kaiwen said unhappily, "After the draw with Denmark, their offer was already very low. If it’s just after qualifying that they spend money, aren’t they taking no risk at all?"

"I’ve already turned them down, but some sponsors are very interested in tying sponsorship fees to performance."

Gagliani continued.

"That’s quite good."

Huang Kaiwen nodded and said, "But if we reach the semifinals, they must pay all the money, and after winning the championship, they must offer a championship bonus, as their brand can stand on the podium with us."

"I will make sure they agree."

Gagliani said.

After Gagliani finished speaking, Cocu said, "I’ve already talked to the media about Ten Hag, but even with such news, they will continue reporting on our affairs, right?"

Huang Kaiwen looked at the "Choice Report" in his hand.

He could roughly understand this newspaper with the largest circulation in Poland.

It stated, "Van Persie is already the most unpopular player in the Netherlands locker room. It’s said that there’s even a gun in the Netherlands locker room, and if Kevin hadn’t stopped it, a bad incident might have happened."

Huang Kaiwen looked at Gagliani.

Gagliani quickly wiped his forehead, not expecting the Poles to exaggerate so much.

"Coach, UEFA said they are sending an investigation team."

Nesta said beside him.

"When?"

Huang Kaiwen asked.

"They’ll be here to investigate tomorrow."

Nesta said.

"Let them come."

Huang Kaiwen looked at the field and said, "First focus on tactical exercises. Mauro, keep an eye on them. We’ll hold a meeting with the players after UEFA finishes their check. Adriano, come to my office."

"Okay, boss!"

Tassotti nodded and said.

Longtime as an assistant coach, he adjusted his role well.

Gagliani cautiously followed Huang Kaiwen into the office. After closing the door, he immediately explained, "I only told the Poles to write the internal conflict as more serious, but I didn’t expect them to exaggerate like this."

"Never mind."

Huang Kaiwen got up, made two cups of black tea, handed one to Gagliani and said, "It’s not enough. Let the media all over Europe quickly get involved."

"How should they write it?"

Gagliani asked cautiously.

"The more exaggerated, the better."

Huang Kaiwen said, "Preferably obvious it’s fake, something like the Netherlands Three Musketeers, Netherlands Wife Swap Scandal, Dutch players smuggling lithography machines using international matches, Netherlands captain running for president."
