"Golden connection"
They are on an incredible level of networking. This time, Ki Sung-yueng went to Real Madrid and met with manager Carlo Ancelotti and Jude Bellingham.
Ki Sung-yueng wrote on his personal SNS on the 16th (Korea time), "I had a great time in Madrid over the past two days. I learned a lot and went back by talking about soccer with coach Raul and Arbeloa as well as Ancelotti!"
He continued, "I was happy to talk to Hosselu, who was with Newcastle, Antonio, who was a physical coach at Sunderland, and Modric and Bellingham, who understood England well."
Lastly, he said, "It was impressive to see him train really hard and prepare as the best team in the world. It was a time that made me feel a lot of things."
Ki Sung-yueng, currently with FC Seoul, finished his schedule this season with the end of the last two days. Then he went to Europe and had a busy schedule. I had a great time with Angel Rangel, Kyle Naughton (former Swansea City teammate), Roberto de Gervy (Brighton), Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), Brandon Rogers, Oh Hyun-kyu, Yang Hyun-joon, Kwon Hyuk-kyu, Callum McGregor, James Forrest (Celtic), Enze Postecoglou, Son Heung-min, Ben Davies, Fraser Forster (Tottenham Hotspur), Rafael Benitez, Antonio, and Paco (Celta Vigo).
This time, it was Madrid. Ki had meetings with Ancelotti, Castile Raul Gonzalez, Juvenile A coach Alvaro Arbeloa, Bellingham, Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, and Hosselu. In fact, he is the ultimate mastermind.
Real Madrid is by far the best big club in Europe. It boasts a long history as it celebrates its 121st anniversary by winning the most La Liga titles (35 times), the Champions League titles (14 times), and the Club World Cup titles (5 times). Ki Sung-yueng revealed his amazing schedule every day, and this time it was even more "shocking."
What's unique about these schedules is that they discussed tactics with coaches of respective teams. Coach De Zerbi, Rodgers, Postecoglou, Benitez, and Ancelotti are all talented leaders. In particular, Coach De Zerbi and Postecoglou are known to use attractive tactics that conform to recent trends.
This is why over time, Ki Sung-yueng's soccer, which will turn into a leader, can't help but be more excited.
