1in the summer of 1996, the Spanish superpower Real Madrid spared no expense, waving checkbooks to snap up football heroes from all walks of life, in order to attract all outstanding players suitable for the tactical plan of Fabio Capello, the new coach and former coach of AC Milan. In this way, roberto carlos, a little-known Brazilian in Spain, appeared on Capello's acquisition list, when young Carlos was making contributions to Inter Milan. However, everything that happened later proved that it was really wise for Real Madrid to sign a contract.
Successful transfer
After a season, Real Madrid club deeply realized that it was very lucky to get a player like Carlos. You know, before signing with him, Mr Lorenzo Sands, the president of the club, knew almost nothing except that he was a left-back and shot fiercely. At that time, the most important thing for Mr. Sands was that Carlos' transfer fee must be within the club's budget, that is, no more than 5 million dollars.
In July the year before last, tens of thousands of Madrid fans and spectators gathered at the burnaby Stadium in San Diego to watch the first performance of Real Madrid stars in the new season. Dutch midfielder Seedorf, Yugoslav striker Mijatovic and Croatian sharp knife figure Suker are always talked about by people, but after that game, Carlos, who was not optimistic at first, became idols and heroes in the eyes of club fans together with young star Raul Gonzalez. He is the undisputed pillar of the team. He is a La Liga team.
As the first Brazilian star of Real Madrid, he showed superb skills and excellent physical fitness on the court, and his extraordinary football talent made him stand firm in Spain. In this way, this excellent player finally won the praise of many critical fans in the "Bullfighting Kingdom".
Amazing footwork
Known as God's gift, fate or simple good luck, roberto carlos's inheritance and energy from his parents have brought a new star to football. He is not a striker. When the team doctor of Real Madrid analyzed and tested him, he was surprised by his good physical fitness. Another notable advantage of him is the shape of his thighs. Many fans are disappointed because when they measure the thigh muscles, they are far from Carlos' amazing 58CM.
The thigh muscles are like this, and the style of playing football is shaped as a child (solid technical foundation and fine footwork). He is the main defender of the Brazilian national team and has played for Flamengo and Turin. Not surprisingly, the left foot shot is extremely powerful. What Real Madrid fans know is that when Carlos played for Inter Milan, his shooting speed was 150 km/h, which made them sigh. It didn't take long for Spanish fans to see Carlos. In the third game of the 96-97 season against Real Madrid, he scored the key goal. At that time, the speed of the ball was 140 km per hour. The young Brazilian international is a super all-around athlete, and his 100 meter runs within 1 1 second.
Besides, he is very competitive and always wants to win the game. He kept putting pressure on his opponent's defense. In some key games last season, Real Madrid turned the tide with Carlos, who inspired his teammates to believe that they could get more.
Roberto carlos showed great courage in the French four-nation invitational tournament in July, scoring against Italy (which was 2-3 behind). Club President Sands admits that signing a contract with roberto carlos is indeed a wise move and a good investment. After last season, I couldn't wait to renew his contract. The original contract may be extended to take effect in June 2000, and there is a clear stipulation in the contract that athletes can leave as long as they pay a penalty of 1 100 million yuan to the club.
A kind heart
The positive side of roberto carlos is that charity is not just on the court. Many times he showed that he also cared about the oppressed people. The humble family environment in which he was born and raised left a deep imprint on his character. He publicly stated that he had few toys when he was a child, because his family was poor and his parents didn't have enough money to buy them for him. In his first training class, he stood out and stayed for 45 minutes. After the training, give people photos and signatures, while other players will be in 10 minutes. He won't give up until he signs everyone's name. No wonder he quickly won the hearts of fans.
He has a strong religious belief and often reads the Bible. I firmly believe that all the good things he experienced in his life are gratitude to God. What he cares about most is his charming wife Alexander and their two daughters Roberta and Giovanna. He spends almost all his spare time with them. When he can squeeze time out of his busy schedule. It sounds impossible for a Real Madrid player to go to the ticket office to chat with fans, but it is one of the things he does.
Legend of Real Madrid
There is a big game at the Bernabeu Stadium, and fans will queue up three days in advance to buy tickets. The best game is against old rival Barcelona. On this occasion, short Brazilians joined the fans to help them pass the boring time. He spent half an hour signing autographs, chatting with loyal supporters and spreading happiness everywhere. This story became a legend of Real Madrid.
Everyone in this city knows that Carlos' motivation for doing these things is his good wishes and deep feelings for the lower classes. Not all these things are public or done by the media. He pointed out that many boys in the club like football. For the children and teenagers who ask him for souvenirs after the game. He knew that one of them might successfully put on these shoes one day.
Carlos' life world is more than just football. He is well aware of the current social problems and still takes care of his family in Brazil. One of his dreams is to open a large orphanage in Sao Paulo, where children can live a comfortable life to some extent and go to school regularly. In the short term, he has other businesses, which are also related to children. Seeing the happiness of his two daughters, he will think of his difficult childhood. He always inspires himself for children in need. His recent dream is to set up several football schools in his hometown, where children can learn the game for free. It's no wonder that Spaniards put Rocco Carlos and his generosity in their hearts, and their highest recognition is usually to gain themselves.
On June 8th, 2007, Real Madrid left-back roberto carlos officially joined Turkish powerhouse Fenerbahce freely. He signed a two-year contract with the team, and he will still wear the No.3 jersey to participate in the competition.
