Li Ang's current coaching resume could be said to be very dazzling!
Such a young coach waiting to take up his post was enough for the media to hype up. As long as Li Ang's new manager was not confirmed, it could feed a group of reporters to speculate and discuss.
Turin Sport 'arranged' a new place for Li Ang. The Turin media released a bombshell that the owner of AC Milan, Berlusconi, was dissatisfied with the Rossoneri's humiliating performance in Istanbul and doubted Ancelotti's coaching ability. He planned to change the coach, and Sporting de Gijón's previous treble-winning coach had entered the sights of Milan's giants.
England's The Sun mentioned the name of the Premier League's traditional powerhouse, Newcastle United. After the end of the 20042005 Premier League season, Newcastle United was only ranked 14th in the Premier League. During the season, they were even in the relegation circle. This made the Newcastle United management very dissatisfied with the team's manager, Souness. According to The Sun, Newcastle United took a fancy to Li Ang's brilliant coaching resume, especially Li Ang's vision for young players, which made the Premier League's traditional powerhouse very interested.
Germany's Kicker said that this season's Bundesliga runner-up, FC Schalke 04, intended to invite Li Ang to coach, hoping that the young champion coach could lead FC Schalke 04 to break Bayern Munich's monopoly in the Bundesliga.
Corriere dello Sport revealed that two teams in the city of Rome, FC Roma and Lazio, were interested in hiring Li Ang to coach. Lazio's boss, Lotito, especially admired Li Ang. This gentleman appreciated Sporting de Gijón's youth storm in La Liga.

Li Ang read these reports out of boredom and was amused by himself.
Turin Sport reported that AC Milan intended to change their manager. This news was true. However, in the original space, Berlusconi was furious that the Rossoneri had lost the European Championship in Istanbul despite leading 3-0. He did have the intention of firing Ancelotti. However, Galliani supported Ancelotti, so Berlusconi ultimately chose to give Ancelotti a chance. Even without this reason, Li Ang would never consider AC Milan, mainly because Milan's boss, Berlusconi, was not a stable boss. He liked to give orders to the team too much. With Li Ang's temper and his demand for absolute control of the team, he was not compatible with Berlusconi.
As for Newcastle United, which was mentioned by The Sun, Li Ang would not consider it even more. Newcastle United's financial situation was not good. According to the media, Newcastle United was interested in his ability to train young players. It was conceivable that even if Li Ang went to Newcastle United and trained a group of young players, he would inevitably be sold off. In that case, he might as well stay at Sporting de Gijón. After all, he had already laid the foundation at Sporting de Gijón.
As for FC Schalke 04, Li Ang would not consider it either. Not only FC Schalke 04, he would not consider a Bundesliga team for the time being. The Bundesliga was about small operations. Bayern Munich was the only big team. It was challenging to challenge Bayern Munich. Unfortunately, FC Schalke 04 could not realize Li Ang's ambition.
As for the two teams in Rome, Li Ang would not consider Roma. The Sensi family was in a bad situation now. In the Roma team, Francesco Totti's influence on the locker room was too deep. Li Ang would not allow a player to speak above him in the locker room. If he had to choose between the coach and Francesco Totti, the Roma team would definitely choose Totti. Based on this, Li Ang would not consider Roma. As for Lazio, Lazio, who was now in a financial crisis, was even more out of the question.
Therefore, at present, even if he did not contact Inter Milan before, Inter Milan was now the most suitable choice for Li Ang.
However, Milan Gazzetta dello Sport stated in the latest report that Li Ang's future was likely to be at Pinenati.
However, Milan Gazzetta dello Sport also stated that the biggest question mark for Inter Milan now was whether the club's top management would continue to trust the team's manager, Mancini. If Mancini was dismissed, then Li Ang, who was currently idle, would be an alternative target for Inter Milan.
Milan Gazzetta dello Sport concluded that the Coppa Italia would be Mancini's last straw. If they could win the title, Inter Milan was likely to continue to trust Mancini.

A few hours later, the second leg of the 20042005 Coppa Italia season ended. Inter Milan won 1-0 at home against Roma. The total score of the two legs was 3-0 to Roma, and they picked up the 20042005 Coppa Italia season title.
Afterwards, Milan Gazzetta dello Sport made a prediction on their official website that Inter Milan would continue to trust Mancini. This also meant that Li Ang would not be able to go to Pinenati.
The next morning, the Italian news report came out. On the television screen, a reporter holding a microphone stood outside the gate of Inter Milan's Pinenati training base. He pointed to the building behind him and said to the camera, "Just now, Inter Milan held a press conference. The club's president, Giacinto Facchetti, announced at the press conference that Inter Milan and manager Roberto Mancini had terminated the contract ahead of schedule. Both sides will not continue to fulfill the remaining terms of the contract. Inter Milan will pay Mancini liquidated damages according to the contract. At the same time, Facchetti said that Inter Milan will welcome a great champion manager … "
This news immediately blew up the Apennine Peninsula. Milan Gazzetta dello Sport, which had previously predicted that Inter Milan would continue to trust Mancini, used the word "shock" on their latest newspaper page regarding Mancini's dismissal. Their headline on the front page was: Champion Manager! The new general of the Nerazzurri?
The picture accompanying the headline was a picture of Li Ang holding the La Liga championship high.
Almost an hour later, broke the news. They also used a photo on the front page.
In the picture, Li Ang, wearing sunglasses and a cold face, appeared at Madrid airport with a very beautiful young girl. This China coach did not accept any media interviews. He directly boarded the plane through the VIP channel.
This was a direct flight from Madrid to Milan.
