My system allows me to copy talents-Chapter 583: Purpose of the visit

In the end, Hugo couldn't convince the man. So, he gave up.

"What's wrong with him? I was only doing something nice," Hugo complained after the man left the place.

Hiro looked at him and said, "Tipping isn't in our culture. Well, although some might accept the tip, there continue to be some who remain adamant against it."

Hugo nodded, "Japan sure is interesting."

He was impressed by the work ethic of the Japanese people.

Then he got seated opposite Hiro and formally introduced himself, "Hello, Hiro. I'm Hugo Castillo, the representative of Athletico Madrid."

"First of all, I'd like to thank you again for accepting our offer."

"The pleasure is all mine, sir. I'm glad to receive such a sincere and huge offer from such a prestigious club," Hiro said, his tone humble.

"But can I be honest with you sir?" Hiro added.

Hugo nodded, signaling him to proceed. Staring at Hiro, he scrutinized him. Hiro's straightforwardness and serious look on his face made him a little curious about the topic he wanted to talk about.

"Why did you offer such a lucrative contract to me?" Hiro asked.

Hugo was mesmerized by the question. Previously when he dealt with the client, they'd always show their gratitude. But right now, he was being asked something entirely different.

Does he find the contract suspicious?

Hugo couldn't help but stare at Hiro. The look of seriousness on Hiro's face, he couldn't bring himself to see through it.

Just what was this boy before him thinking about? Shouldn't he be elated to receive such a huge offer? Even by the industrial standard, the contract they had offered to Hiro was way above average.

There were even a lot of officials in the club who weren't satisfied with them offering such lucrative contracts to a talent that hadn't proven himself yet.

Sure, he had already proven himself in the domestic league. But still, the investment they were making in Hiro was huge.

If the investment didn't bore results then they'd suffer massive losses. The investment in Hiro itself was risky. If it wasn't for Diego Simeone taking a liking to Hiro, the deal would have already been snubbed.

Even Hugo himself held huge doubt over the investment.

Just what had the coach seen in him to go out of his way to vouch for an unknown talent?

With the investment they were making in Hiro, they could have easily bought a proven talent to fill the vacant position.

Hugo looked at him deeply. Then he harrumphed, "Cough! To be honest, I'm not sure about it either. But I believe it has to do something with our manager Simeone."

Just as Hiro heard the mention of the manager, he pictured the image of the manager in question. He recalled his temper, personality, and authority.

The man had coached the team for more than a decade already. So, the authority he had on the club was of the highest order. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was one of the most powerful men in the entire club.

If that person had taken a liking to him then it explained why he had been offered such a lucrative contract. Though they had invested a great sum in Joao Felix previously, they didn't receive the investment they had put in him.

So, what made him want to invest in an unknown talent like him?

Hiro couldn't help but doubt the intention of the manager. Pondering for a while, he cast a gaze at Hugo. He wanted to ask him to clarify but immediately dispelled the thought.

Even if he were to ask him, he wouldn't be able to answer after all.

Seeing him with such a complacent look on his face, Hugo tried to comfort him, "Although I don't know the reason why you were offered such a lucrative contract, I can tell you with certainty that you'll be regarded as an important player in the team."

"After all, the coach has taken a liking to you."

Hearing him, Hiro felt a bit assured. Exactly, if the coach had taken a liking to him then things wouldn't get difficult for him. So, he didn't have to worry too much about the contract.

Although Diego Simeone didn't have the reputation of developing a young player like Pep Guardiola, he was still a manager with a fortitude of experience and knowledge in his bag.

With his decades of experience, the experience he'll receive under his wing would be valuable nonetheless.

Even so, he couldn't completely eradicate the doubts. After all, the philosophy of the team he was about to represent was focused on counterattacking football and he was used to playing attacking football.

Be it in the club or the national team, he was used to playing attacking football.

So, why did manager Simeone take a liking to him?

The failure of Griezmann in Barcelona was evident to him. Griezmann who was adept in playing counterattacking football couldn't adapt to the attacking ways of Barcelona.

So, he might be unable to adapt to the ways of Athletico too.

Countless doubts were emerging in his mind but he chose to keep those doubts to himself. After all, even if he were to ask the person before him, he might not be able to get any answer out of him.

But it'd be an entirely different case if he got to talk to the manager directly. So, he couldn't help but ask about the possibility, "Sir, Is there any way I can talk to the manager?" freēnovelkiss.com

Hugo let out a hearty laugh, "Hahaha..., that was the main purpose of my visit."

Dumbfounded by the remark, he couldn't help but stare at the man dazedly. Wasn't he here to discuss the contract? So, what was he saying right now?

Hiro felt puzzled.

The man then lifted the briefcase and brought out a laptop.

"Give me a second," he said before using the laptop.

He was video-calling the manager. The very person to whom Hiro wanted to talk about his

future.

"As you know the manager is a busy person. So, he couldn't come here in person. So, I hope you understand it," Hugo said.

Hiro nodded, "I understand, sir. Even getting to talk to him is a huge achievement for me."

Hiro tried to remain as humble as he could. But he wasn't sugarcoating his words. He meant what he said. After all, Diego Simeone, a man of his stature was regarded as a legendary manager in the world of football.

The loyalty he had for the team was an incredible feat that was talked about worldwide.
