When Atletico Madrid returned to Madrid from Portugal, Spanish media had already received news of Xavi Alonso's injury and paid considerable attention.

Everyone knows that Xavi Alonso is the core of Atletico Madrid's midfield, and his injury will inevitably affect Atletico Madrid's combat effectiveness, especially considering that the Spanish Super Cup is about to come.

Xavi Alonso was injured at this critical moment, which undoubtedly cast an unknown shadow on the Madrid derby of the Super Cup.

Therefore, many Spanish reporters chased the capital airport and took pictures of Atletico Madrid returning to China.

Xavi Alonso walks obviously differently than usual, and team doctor Jose Maria Berellon also followed closely.

As soon as they left the airport, the two went directly to the La Paz Affiliated Hospital near the airport.

Gao Han was in a bad mood, and did not accept interviews from the reporters present. After urging the players to get on the bus, he returned to Mahada Enda directly. However, after disbanding the team, he came to the La Paz Affiliated Hospital accompanied by the team leader Carlos Pena and Cantalero.

At this time, the detailed inspection report of Harvey Alonso had already been released.

"How about it?"

Seeing the team doctor Belleron and the attending doctor of La Paz Affiliated Hospital came over with the examination report, Gao Han and others immediately went up to meet him and asked with concern.

"Preliminary test, right ankle sprain is not a big problem."

Gao Han and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

If Xavi Alonso is injured, it will be a tragic blow to Atletico Madrid.

Gao Han also secretly took a chance in his heart. Although the pre-season optimization training purchased by the coaching system can ensure that the players will not be injured under the ravages and abuses of thousands of people, their bodies will not only be injured, but will make progress and adjust to their best condition.

But the problem is that injuries during the game are inevitable.

Who knew that guy Jadel would retreat to defense and put such a heavy foot on his feet?

"How long do you need to rest?" Gao Han asked again.

Team doctor Bellelon was a little helpless and sighed, "Preliminary estimate is two weeks."

In one sentence, everyone present fell to the bottom again.

Two weeks?

That is to say, Xavi Alonso will miss two leg matches against Real Madrid's Super Cup.

"Damn it!" Gao Han cursed angrily.

Everyone present was also a little depressed.

Strictly speaking, it is not a big problem to be injured and take a two-week rest, but the biggest problem now is that the Madrid derby is about to come. The injury at this critical moment is really...

Not to mention Gao Han, even Harvey Alonso himself felt quite depressed.

He personally is also full of expectations for this game, and he knows that the team has been preparing for these two games for a long time. If he is injured at a critical moment, it will inevitably disrupt the overall deployment of the team.

"Maybe we can think of some solutions, such as..." Team doctor Bellellon suggested.

But before he finished speaking, Gao Han shook his head, "No, no, Jose, he is still young, don't take risks for a game."

The team doctor's proposal was to fight for the closure, but for the young Harvey Alonso, it was completely unnecessary.

Looking at Harvey Alonso, who was feeling a little depressed, Gao Han suppressed the depression in his heart and squeezed out a smile.

"Go back and rest well, come and report it an hour earlier tomorrow, and leave the rest to me."

Xavi Alonso looked up and looked at his coach deeply with his apology eyes.

According to Gao Han's regulations, the injured must come to the team one hour in advance to undergo examinations from the team doctor and coaching staff, and then arrange his training programs based on his injury situation.

In pre-season optimization training, there are also unique training programs specifically for the injured. I hope it can help him return to the team as soon as possible.

…………

…………

I have to admire the keen sense of smell of the Spanish paparazzi.

When Gao Han and others took Xavi Alonso out of the La Paz Affiliated Hospital, at least four or five reporters were blocked at the door.

As soon as they saw the people from Atletico Madrid come out, they immediately chased after them.

Gao Han walked in the front and signaled the team doctor Belleron to take the injured Xavi Alonso into the car and leave first.

The reporters were blocked by Gao Han and Cantalero, and they had no choice but to interview Gao Han.

"Mr. Gao Han, I heard that Harvey Alonso was seriously injured. Is it true?"

"Fake."

"But I have a friend in this hospital and he said Xavi Alonso will miss the match against Real Madrid."

"Ha, your friend is better than a doctor. He told you everything, and he asked me what I'm doing?"

"Mr. Gao Han, will the absence of Xavi Alonso affect Atletico Madrid's deployment?"

"I'll say it again, he's fine."

"But he was walking just now..."

"It's normal."

...

All the reporters present felt a headache, and this Chinese man became more and more skilled in dealing with the media.

When Carlos Pena picked up the car from the parking lot, Gao Han turned around and left, ignoring the reporter chasing behind him, and after getting in the car with Cantalero, he left directly.

"The noses of these guys are so good!" Gao Han sat in the back row by the window and said with a wry smile.

Carlos Pena, who was driving in the front row, smiled, "They made a living by this."

Cantalero in the passenger seat leaned over and looked at Gao Han, "What should we do now?"

Xavi Alonso was injured and lost a core player in the fourth position. This was a very heavy loss to Atletico Madrid, a bit close to Barcelona's loss of Guardiola.

"What do you think?" Gao Han asked back.

His mind was a little confused at this time and he couldn't think of too many things and needed to calm down.

"Generally speaking, there are two ways to solve this problem. One is to use personnel adjustments to make up for the absence of Xavi Alonso based on the current situation of the team. Gabby may do it."

But Gao Han shook his head, "Gabi is too young to control the scene."

You know, what you have to face this time is Real Madrid!

Xavi Alonso is not old, but he is very mature and steady. Although he is half a season in the second and half a season in the Spanish Second Division, at least he has played a full season and is more stable at critical moments.

Especially the experience in the King's Cup final is so precious!

In Gao Han’s tactics, the most important thing in the position of the back midfielder is to be stable.

"There is another way. Marcos Senna withdraws, plays the fourth position, and starts at Baptista. We tried it in the warm-up game. It's not OK to control the ball, but if you focus on defense, it should be fine."

Gao Han nodded, this is indeed a solution.

The most valuable thing about Marcos Senna is that he not only has solid skills, good passing skills, diligent defense, can run, grab and intercept, and most importantly, he works hard.

If Gao Han asked him to retreat and play the No. 4 position and asked him to defend the penalty area to the death, he would probably die and not move.

But in this way, the team's tactics have to change again and again.

Facing Real Madrid, Deco alone cannot control the midfield.

The Spanish Super Cup is a two-round match, and Atletico Madrid is the first to go home and then away.

According to the strategy specified by Gao Han before, he must do his best to win the home court, but now...

"Perhaps we can also consider signing, we really need a qualified substitute in this position," Cantalero suggested.

Signing?

Gao Han's heart moved, and the first person who came to his mind was Guardiola.

Since the last time we met at a party, we have never contacted each other again.

But in the past few days, the European transfer market has changed dramatically.

First, Real Madrid announced that they would withdraw from Mendeta's competition, and then the Bat Legion sent Mendeta to Lazio at a sky-high price.

Following closely behind, British media revealed that Arsenal had successfully retained Vieira, Wenger personally persuaded the French midfielder to stay in the team, and Real Madrid's poaching failed.

But in this way, Arsenal doesn't need Guardiola anymore.

I wonder how he is thinking now?

Gao Han stared out the window in a daze, thinking.

It is not that Guardiola is the only target, such as Thiago of Braga, the Portuguese Super League.

If Mendes came forward, it would be easy to get it, and the price was not expensive, about two million euros.

Lazio is also selling Spanish midfielder De La Pena everywhere. The former Barcelona genius has excellent midfield strength, but he has not been able to get a chance whether he is in Lazio, on loan to Marseille, or returning to Barcelona last season.

The Serie A giants price him at three million euros, which is very cost-effective.

Also looking for buyers is Real Betis.

This team failed to upgrade last season and was in a worrying situation this season. They first wanted to sell Joaquin, but the price was too high and no one took over. Now they are also attracted by Kapi, but the price is also the most expensive. It is probably impossible to expect without 5 million euros.
