"Luka, your talent is unparalleled; you just haven't adapted to the Bosnian-Herzegovinian League yet. Next season, I will give you more opportunities, more tactical weight. I believe that with our cooperation, we can create a glory that HSK has never had."

The young man and the teenager.

One is Luka Modric, and the other is the Dutch coach of Mostar Zlinski, Fania Arca Vansted.

Van Sted Yak is a 33-year-old assistant coach with good quality in the Netherlands.

He was once a partner of Bobby Robertson, who trained PSV Eindhoven, one of the top three teams in the Netherlands.

However, as a Dutchman, Van Stek was opposed to Robertson's training philosophy, and as a Dutchman, they naturally seemed obsessed with attacking and defending.

For the British coach Robertson, quick offensive and defensive transitions and counter-attacks are king, and traditional English football, simple and direct, is also Robertson's training philosophy.

After working together for two years, Van Stek finally decided to establish his own business, and through the club's introduction, he was transferred to Mostar Zlinski in the Bosnian-Herzegovinian League to train and practice his ability to lead the team independently.

Van Stek is an ambitious young man, and his goal as an assistant coach at PSV Eindhoven was to become a coach like Guus Hiddink.

It's just that due to the difference in ideas between him and Robertson, the two were unable to reach a unified idea in the end.

After arriving at Mostar Zlinski, Van Stek is planning a big move. Not to mention that Dinamo Zagreb lent them such a good young talent.

Modric's talent is visible at a glance, and although he didn't start especially well in the Bosnian-Herzegovinian league, he believes that under his guidance, Modric will become the playmaker of the whole team and further develop the offensive qualities of their tall forward, Kosopec.

After completing the career, not only in Bosnia and Herzegovina, they may even challenge in Europe.

These are the keys to enriching his curriculum.

What he needs to do now is stabilize the big baby in front of him, fill him with motivation and passion, and invite him to watch the World Cup.

He hopes that with the stimulation of the World Cup, Modric can gain more motivation.

Van Stek kept exposing his big plan, occasionally looking at Modric's expression.

But something was wrong!

Instead of watching the game on the TV, his big baby was looking at a waiter.

—"Luka? Luka?"

Modric snapped out of it and turned to look at Van Stek: "What's up? Coach?"

Van Stek asked, "What do you want to drink? Today I have a gift."

With that, he smiled and said, "Cocktails? You shouldn't have drunk in a bar. You can try it; it's also a symbol of being a man."

After that, Van Stek didn't wait for Modric to say anything and immediately raised his hand.

Modric frowned slightly, but didn't refute.

Soon, there was a joyful shout.

"Good evening, and I hope everyone has a good night. Luka?"

Suker looked at Modric in surprise.

Modric looked at Suker with a smile, raised his hand, and gently shook it, with none of the distraction he had earlier.

Van Stek wondered, "Do you know each other?"

Modric answered concisely, "We are friends."

Suker also smiled.

Van Stek was surprised. He didn't expect that Modric had friends, since his popularity at the club wasn't very good.

Van Stek looked Suker up and down.

He is short, with a round baby face that gives off a childish feel.

Even when placed next to Modric, there is a sense of déjà vu of being a kid.

—"Are you really friends?"

Suker nodded in unison with Modric.

"Yes."

Van Stek shook his head and said, "A dark beer, a special cocktail, not too much alcohol."

Suker turned to look at Modric; —"Do you drink?"

Modric stayed silent.

After this period of contact, Suker could tell.

This guy is extremely introverted and shy, and doesn't know how to say no to people.

"Drink milk, count on me for a treat," Suker gestured with his hand.

Modric smiled again.

After that, Suker smiled at Van Stek and said, "Sir, you should count this cup separately, and when we have a good relationship in the future, I can also invite you!"

Van Stek was stunned and smiled; "Well, it depends on you!"

Suker sneaked away and disappeared.

Van Stek turned his head and asked, "Have you made friends in Mostar?"

Modric nodded; "It's a coincidence."

Van Stek nodded, and if he could make friends, it meant Modric wasn't the type of kid with social problems in the true sense of the word, which was good news.

"A dark beer, a glass of milk, and a steak! A total of 40 marks!"

Van Stek blinked, looked at the grill, "We didn't order steak."

Suker pointed to Modric and said, "He's so thin, he's a professional player, how can he grow his body if he doesn't eat something good?"

With that, Suker approached Modric and whispered, "He's paying for it, right?"

Modric smiled and nodded.

Suker extended his hand and said firmly, "40 marks."

Van Stek was speechless but shook his head and prepared to pay for it.

After collecting the money, Suker noticed a small badge on Van Stek's chest.

This badge is familiar; it's the flag of Mostar Zlinski.

Suker rolled his eyes and looked at Modric; —"No introduction?"

Modric was stunned for a moment, but still honestly said; "Fania Van Stek, who is the head coach of Mostar Zlinski."

"Exactly!"

Suker secretly snorted and then didn't leave but sat in his seat and smiled at Van Stek; "Hello, sir, my name is Suker, and I currently play in the second division of Bosnia and Herzegovina."

—"A pro?" Van Stek was surprised.

He didn't expect Suker's height to be that of a professional player.

"Yes, pro, forward!"

—"Forward?"

Van Stek frowned and unconsciously shook his head.

This guy is only 155 centimeters tall, right? A forward at this height? Sure!

"But I'm the top scorer, 14 goals in 18 league games!"

Clears throat!

Van Stek coughed violently, choking on his drink.

His eyes widened: "You scored 14 goals?"

Suker nodded immediately.

Van Stek nodded: "14 goals, that's amazing."

Suker blinked, still looking at Van Stek.

Van Stek thought Suker hadn't heard him and nodded again, "That's amazing."

Suker kept looking.

Van Stek was stunned.

What do you mean?

Looking at the dazed appearance of the other party, Suker scratched his head and sighed. All the opportunities were earned by him.

Suker took a deep breath, looked at Van Stek, and said seriously; "Not everyone has the opportunity to meet a coach. I want to be a professional, a true professional, and I want to play for Mostar Zlinski!"

Now, what Suker said was quite simple.

"If you have the opportunity, I would like to invite you to come watch me play, and I'm sure I won't disappoint you."

As soon as Suker finished speaking, the guests behind him shouted.

"Three bottles of dark beer here!"

Suker turned around and responded, "Right away!"

Immediately, Suker turned back to look at the surprised Van Stek and said: "I really won't disappoint you, and I can cooperate with any of your positional choices."

"Hey! Three stouts!"

The urgency sounded as Suker turned to leave.

Before leaving, he said again:

"Don't forget, my name is Suker, and I won't disappoint you."

With that, Suker slipped away with a puff of smoke.

At this moment, Van Stek still hadn't recovered. He didn't expect to go out for a drink and relax, and someone recommended himself.

And a 155 cm forward?

Van Stek shook his head. He didn't need that type of player.

He better take a look at him.

Just when Van Stek was about to drink again, Modric suddenly spoke.

Van Stek turned to look at Modric.

—"Do you think I should take a look?"

Modric nodded; "We are friends for football, he has everything except his height, and he can help us."

After a pause, Modric added: "I've played a lot with him, and his runs forward are a great complement to my penetration. He's the only one who can read my passing intentions and thoughts right now. In other words, he has the same vision and overall view as I do."

"With only 155 centimeters, he can be the top scorer in the second division of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He has his own peculiarities."

"I believe the coach has many ideas, and he's good at player development, and when he develops his skills, he can make our team rise a lot."

It was the first time Van Stek heard Modric say so many things at once.

And these words are for one person.

He knew Modric to some extent. This kid is extremely conceited in football, and if someone doesn't have enough skill, he wouldn't even pay attention to them, much less admire them like this. It turns out that introductions really work.

Van Stek hadn't been impressed at first, but now he started to stroke his chin and look at Suker, as if he was thinking about something.
