Chapter 692 Determination of jersey number

In January 2007, after switching to many teams, Ronaldo finally joined AC Milan and became his favorite team's rival in the same city.

After joining AC Milan, he also asked the club for the No. 9 jersey.

But in the end his wish didn't come true.

On the one hand, the alien is not what it used to be, he is no longer the best striker in the world.

Moreover, Milan's No. 9 belongs to the legendary Italian striker Inzaghi, and it is impossible for him to give up No. 9.

And several other traditional frontcourt numbers are also well-known.

No. 11 is draped on the body of future hope Gilardino, and No. 10 belongs to Seedorf who has just renewed his contract. It is impossible to give Ronaldo these.

So in the end, Ronaldo chose the biggest number-99.

This has also become an anecdote at the end of Ronaldo's career.

In the Juventus team, there was also an anecdote about the jersey once.

In the parallel world of later generations, in the summer of 2012, Danish striker Bendtner joined Juventus on a rent-to-buy basis. When the Danish kid first came to Juventus, he spoke wildly and wanted Del Piero's No. 10 jersey.

"I will become the best striker in the world in the future, bar none!"

Of course, Bendtner did not get the No. 10 jersey he wanted in the end, but despite this, Bendtner has been nicknamed "Confidence Emperor" since this day.His confident remarks have filled his entire career.

And it is also a parallel world of later generations. This summer Raul joined Schalke 04. At that time, it was Hua Guo player Hao Junmin who wore the No. 04 jersey in Schalke 7.

But in the end, in order to fulfill Raul, the club forcibly took away Hao Junmin's No. 7 jersey and gave it to Raul, and Hao Junmin could only express in an interview that he voluntarily gave up his jersey number.

This incident once made Yun Sheng sigh.

No one would be happy to be forced to give up the No. 7 jersey representing the main force, but Hao Junmin could only make a compromise. This is the true portrayal of Huaguo players in Europe at that time.

But in the current Juventus team, Yunsheng absolutely does not allow this kind of thing to happen.Even if you want to make adjustments, you must seek the opinions of the players, otherwise you must not forcibly snatch the jersey, which will chill the hearts of the players.

Ballack's No. 13, Guti's No. 14, Bonucci's No. 2, Metzelder's No. 4... After a series of player cleanings, these jersey numbers have all been vacated. After the previous players left, several new players got the numbers they wanted.

And Diego's number has also changed from the previous No. 28 to the current No. 11.The number worn by Juventus legend Nedved symbolizes the main offensive player and also represents Yunsheng's expectations for him in the new season.

The only thing that is a bit tricky is the number 7 jersey.

According to the Juventus club's idea, the No. 7 jersey must be given to Raul, there is no doubt about it.

But the current No. 7 jersey belongs to veteran Sali Hamikic, and after Raul joined the team, he has been recovering from his injuries, and he has not participated in pre-season joint training and friendly matches, let alone the jersey number.

As the team's sports manager, Marotta once suggested that Yunsheng directly use the full power of the head coach to forcefully assign the No. 7 jersey to Raul, but Yunsheng refused.

When a reporter asked about this, Yunsheng directly answered: "In the current Juventus team, there are no big-name stars, only players who are united; there is no jersey number that must belong to whom, but mutual respect. As a new player, if the jersey number of the veteran of the team is forcibly taken away, it will definitely have a bad impact on the new player, and even affect unity. So in my team, the jersey number is just a decoration, and it is not important. The important thing is that the players love the team and unite with their teammates."

Yun Sheng's speech touched many people, and in Liu Surong's related report, he also praised Yun Sheng's behavior.

"In European clubs, it is very common for substitute players and young players to give up their jerseys to the main players and big-name stars of the team. In this football world, strength means everything, and the weak don't even have dignity. Some people may think that I am exaggerating, but if you are interested in asking the former Inter Milan striker Zamorano, you will know what this means."

"For a player, taking away his jersey is like taking away his face. Juventus' new coach, Yun Sheng, perfectly preserved the player's face. In European football, I did not see Western liberalism, but only saw the spirit of tolerance brought by Yun Sheng—no player is unimportant, everyone has their due dignity, and Yun Sheng did it."

Faced with Yunsheng's attitude, Raul also told coach Yunsheng privately that he would not forcefully ask for the No. 7 jersey, and agreed with Yunsheng's statement about team unity.

Unexpectedly, the veteran Sali Hamikic made a public statement: "I am very grateful to Yunsheng for his respect. He is a great head coach. But I am willing to take the initiative to give up the No. 7 jersey and let the legend of Lord of the Rings continue."

Yunsheng called Sali Hamikic: "Dude, you don't have to do this, no one can take your jersey number away from me."

"Sir, I am very touched to hear you say those words. As a veteran player who is about to retire, I am content to receive this kind of respect," Salihamikic expressed his gratitude to Yunsheng, and then expressed his wishes, "I am suffering from frequent injuries now, and even if I play next season, I will not have many opportunities. Instead of letting the No. And commercial value, I think this is the most appropriate way."

Hearing what Salihamikic said, Yun Sheng sighed and said with emotion: "With loyal players like you in the team, if I can't bring you a championship, I really feel ashamed of my trust in the club and everyone."

After going around and around, the No. 7 jersey was still assigned to Raul, and everyone was happy with the result.

In addition to several top new players, other new players have also got the numbers they want.

Huaguo captain Zheng Zhi chose No. 27, which was his number with the Celtics last season. His purpose of choosing this number is to hope that he can continue his previous performance and continue his overseas trip.

Yu Dabao put on the No. 22 jersey, which is his favorite number, none of them.In the parallel world of later generations, he played with this number most of the time for club and national team.

Barzagli, Pepe, Motta and other players also got their favorite numbers.

Juventus' jersey numbers and first-team roster for the new season are officially confirmed!
