In the news dia, when sothing happens in the match comntary, there are no issues.
Moreover, Chen Zhong has always maintained a good image in the dia narrative.
Earlier, so of his interviews have reshaped many people’s perceptions of Asian players. Facing the cara, Chen Zhong was eloquent and articulate, rather than being reserved and introverted, entering people’s view for the first ti.
Mourinho is not overly concerned about Chen Zhong winning the Ballon d’Or; his focus has already shifted to the next season.
Having seen Morata’s performance in this match and Benzema’s compliance after being "schooled", Mourinho is no longer keen on introducing a center forward.
He now recognizes clearly that it is the left-back position at Real Madrid that truly lacks depth.
Previously, Marca reported that the Real Madrid hierarchy recognized the urgent need to bring in a backup for Marcelo, stating that it was even more urgent than introducing a number 9 center forward.
Because Real Madrid already has Higuain, Benzema, and Negredo in the forward line.
Chen Zhong, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Kaka can also play as forwards, and even Morata, who plays for the second team, and Joselu, who plays in Castilla, can step up when needed.
However, in the left-back position, not to ntion Marcelo’s attacking strength and defensive weakness, if Marcelo were injured, Real Madrid’s defensive line would be stretched thin, potentially costing the team significantly.
There are even reports that Real Madrid’s hierarchy, after the winter transfer window closed, conducted a deep reflection, believing that if there was anything done poorly in team planning last sumr, it was the failure to bring in a left-back.
In Real Madrid’s squad, virtually every position is secured with two players. For example, on the left there’s Cristiano Ronaldo, Callejon; on the right there’s Kaka and Di Maria. So players can play both flanks, distinguished only by their strong and weak foot, cuts inside, and stretching wide.
So positions even have an overabundance of personnel, such as the midfield.
Not to ntion nas like Chen Zhong, Khedira, Alonso, which are well-known, while players like Granero and Parejo are waiting for a chance...
But in the left-back position, there is only one player, lacking assurance.
During the sumr transfer window this year, Marca actually listed five players, highlighting Benfica Club’s left-back Coentrao as a likely candidate. He is a compatriot of Mourinho, and his agent is the super agent ndes, who also represents Mourinho, Cristiano Ronaldo, Pepe, etc.
And on Wednesday, Portugal’s sports newspaper Record reported that Real Madrid had finalized the transfer of Coentrao. The two clubs have signed a "Knight’s Agreent," only waiting for the season to end for Coentrao to officially join Real Madrid. The agreed price between the two clubs is 30 million Euros, the sa price Real Madrid paid for Pepe.
Perhaps this is exactly why Real Madrid hasn’t spent heavily to bring in a left-back since there are players or young talents who can fill in at left-back.
Moreover, Real Madrid Club has high expectations for Coentrao.
Record stated that ndes played a crucial role in the agreent between the two clubs, and Coentrao is one of the best left-backs in the world. He has been linked to Real Madrid several tis before, and clearly Real Madrid is willing to pay such a high price for him, viewing him not just as a backup for Marcelo. In the eyes of the Portuguese dia, Coentrao is the best left-back available on the market today.
After the report from Record ca out, many newspapers and websites reprinted it. However, people are still not entirely sure about the agreent between Real Madrid and Benfica, so their headlines either indicate "according to Portuguese dia" or end with a question mark, expressing skepticism.
ndes’ assistant Robert Kalinda denied the dia reports: "These are all dia speculations. I can tell everyone that Coentrao has not reached an agreent with Real Madrid or any other club."
But Robert then added: "Real Madrid has a strong interest in Coentrao, and many other big clubs are also interested in him. We are talking about a very outstanding player, and such occurrences are quite normal, even though I must reiterate that no agreent has been reached now."
Concerning ndes and his assistant’s various statents, the Spanish dia believe this is rely common practice by agents to inflate the player’s value as much as possible. It is likely that this 30 million euros figure is one they disclosed themselves, as the current market estimate for Coentrao is only 12 million euros.
It’s undeniable that Mourinho is indeed interested in Coentrao, and it is said that he was following Coentrao since his ti managing Chelsea.
This Portuguese left-back dares to push the offensive to the opponent’s baseline, is very fast, and possesses the ability to break through. He has a strong assisting ability but can also control what’s behind him.
This already makes him much better than Marcelo, and Marcelo’s defensive issues are well-known.
Moreover, Coentrao can play on both the left and right sides.
The season is already more than halfway through, and Mourinho has an approximate understanding of Real Madrid’s strengths and weaknesses. And if Chen Zhong wins the Ballon d’Or...
Then Real Madrid will unprecedentedly have three Ballon d’Or winners on the team at the sa ti.
This is sothing Mourinho hasn’t experienced before.
...
