Chapter 378 The Strength of Navas? 6th
Chapter 378: The strength of Navas?
Perhaps for De Gea, going to Manchester United is also an opportunity.
The current De Gea is of course one of the most concerned young goalkeepers in Europe at present. Compared with the current Navas, De Gea is undoubtedly more brilliant.
So De Gea believes that leaving Manchester United is a very big improvement for his career.
He left Madrid without hesitation and went to Manchester.
Transfer talks between Atlético Madrid and Manchester are also largely over.
In the end, Manchester United were willing to pay 18 million pounds to introduce De Gea - this price is already sky-high for a goalkeeper!
And this transfer price can also be ranked seventh in Manchester United's historical signing list - second only to Carrick in the 18.2 million list.
Soon, the transfer was announced on both sides, with De Gea returning to Manchester United from Atletico Madrid for £18 million.
Not long after the winter window started, such a big transfer case took place, which shocked the European media.
But carefully speaking, there is indeed an urgent need for a young goalkeeper at Manchester United.
The introduction of De Gea will allow Manchester United to not have to worry about goalkeepers for the next ten years. This is a very good deal for Manchester United.
But what about Atletico Madrid?
Now Atlético de Madrid fans are starting to worry about what to do in the second half of the season.
......
Gao Bo is not worried about next season.
Navas's feet are not bad, and in Atletico Madrid's tactics, there is no requirement that the goalkeeper must also be involved in the team's passing at all times-Atletico Madrid pursues passing the ball to the frontcourt quickly and passing the ball quickly. Passing and movement create shooting opportunities.
Therefore, Gao Bo's requirements for goalkeepers are the stability on the goal line and the speed of response to saves.
Navas is good at both points.
So after the team is assembled,
The players soon discovered that the main goalkeeper's vest was hanging on Navas!
Navas also knows what role he is now, and he is naturally very excited about Gao Bo's importance.
An unknown person who came to La Liga from a small league, became the main goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid directly.
This makes the players feel a little mysterious.
Therefore, in training, the players also want to try Navas's fineness.
But Navas, who is now twenty-five years old, looks very calm on the outside despite being excited.
In training, the players also quickly discovered Navas' ability.
Even compared to De Gea, Navas is not much worse.
Strength is the best language of communication, so the players quickly embraced Navas.
Inside Atletico Madrid, it didn't make much of a splash for Navas to replace De Gea.
After all, De Gea was only established as the main goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid this season. It has only been half a season. There is nothing unaccustomed to changing the main goalkeeper or something.
....
On January 4th, the Calderon Stadium was full of people again!
In the first game after returning from the winter break, in the seventeenth round of the league, Atletico Madrid played against Atlético Santander at home.
What attracted the most media attention before the game was undoubtedly who Atlético de Madrid would start this game. Although De Gea’s transfer procedures have not been completed, it is definitely impossible for him to represent Atlético de Madrid in this game. Played.
Gao Bo will not play De Gea at such a time.
Before the game, many media predicted that Asenjo would definitely get a chance. After all, Asenjo was still competing with De Gea as the main goalkeeper last season, and although Asenjo is two years older than De Gea, he can still be considered as a goalkeeper. He is one of the most famous young goalkeepers in Spain.
In addition to Asenjo, Atletico Madrid's other goalkeeper is the young goalkeeper Joel who was promoted from the B team.
Most media believe that Gao Bo will choose between the two goalkeepers.
As for Navas...it was completely ignored by the media.
In fact, the transfer of Navas is not even known to many Atlético Madrid fans.
Just a 300,000 euro goalkeeper transfer, how many people can it attract?
A team like Atlético de Madrid, with so many fringe players coming and going, doesn't really attract much attention at all.
But when the media got the Atletico Madrid starting lineup before the seventeenth round, everyone was taken aback.
Atlético de Madrid's starting goalkeeper is...Kelor Navas! ! !
That Costa Rican who just moved back to Atlético de Madrid? !
"impossible?"
"Is it a mistake?!"
"Where did this man come from?!"
"Just play the starter after coming here? Is this a joke?"
In the media booth, the reporters talked a lot.
Navas came to Atletico Madrid just a few days?
Introduced on the 1st of January, completed the registration on the 2nd, and started on the 4th? ! !
This is a bit....too random, right? !
"I heard that this is the goalkeeper that Gao Bo is going to introduce!"
A reporter said.
The reporters in the media immediately shut up.
Because until now, Gao Bo has not lost sight of it.
Gao Bo is really good at introducing players.
But doubts still linger in the hearts of reporters.
They are also looking forward to it.... What if Navas doesn't perform well in this game?
It is of course absolutely possible.
How many days has Navas been here? Has he integrated into the Atlético de Madrid squad? Is he fit for La Liga?
Not to mention his strength, these problems alone are enough to make a player play out of order.
The eyes of the reporters were burning. Since Navas appeared, almost most of the media's eyes were focused on him.
Navas seemed very calm.
Before the game started, Gao Bo talked to him alone.
"You are the best goalkeeper in La Liga!"
Gao Bo's words moved Navas to the point of crying. It felt like a great scholar died for his confidant!
Navas is a very confident person, and now he is even more excited in such a game!
Gao Bo is not worried that Navas will play abnormally or something - Navas's fame is in the World Cup arena, this is a player who is more excited when the occasion is bigger.
However, in this game, Navas did not encounter the shooting test.
He made just one save the whole game as their rivals, Sporting Santander, were held down on the road.
After the winter break, Atletico Madrid's form didn't seem to be affected at all.
Aguero broke out in this game. He scored a hat-trick and assisted Koke to score!
Atletico Madrid's first game after the winter break was a 4-0 victory!
Such a game naturally cannot see the quality of Navas.
After all, the pressure of Santander Sporting on him is too small!
The reporters were a little disappointed, not being able to see that Navas's quality made them a little unwilling.
But Atletico Madrid's opponents in the next game will definitely have gold content.
The second leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals!
Atlético de Madrid vs. Barcelona!
Barcelona, an opponent, can definitely see how much Navas weighs, right?
