Chapter 594: Unveiling Ceremony
It seemed rather difficult to convince Ito. But Haruki had already anticipated it before putting forward the offer. He was well aware that it wouldn't be an easy task to convince Ito.
After all, the offer wasn't lucrative enough.
But more than the brilliance of Ito, he required his wisdom and ability to lead. If he paired Ito with Hiro, he'd be able to replicate his vision more brilliantly.
So, despite sensing the unwillingness of Ito, Haruki wasn't going to retreat.
With even more conviction, Haruki said, "Well, you aren't wrong about it. But if you join us, I can help you shorten the time. Right after you retire, I can integrate you into one of our coaching staff. So, would you be willing to think about the offer now?"
Kawasaki was a giant club and to be able to kickstart his coaching career here, he couldn't even imagine it. Even with his portfolio, he wouldn't receive such an offer if he were to start from scratch.
Now, he felt so intrigued by the offer that he could no longer turn a blind eye to the offer presented by Haruki.
Sure, Kawasaki could hire someone else. But rather than working with someone who he wasn't familiar with, Haruki wanted to work with someone already familiar.
That's why he was putting so much importance on Ito.
Otherwise, he'd have already jumped onto another individual. However, that didn't mean that he hadn't prepared other options.
If despite the persuasion Ito decides to reject the offer, he is prepared to board the ship and jump onto the next instantly.
At this moment, he caught the sight of Ito with a complacent look on his face. He could tell that he had piqued his interest.
So, he went for one last push, "You've already seen Hiro's performance right? This season, I wanted to pair you with him. With your abilities combined, I wanted to see what kind of havoc you'd unleash on the field."
"Don't you want the credit of helping nurture a potential star?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
A cold glint flashed past Haruki's eyes during the mention of the last sentence.
Even though the guy before him appeared decent, Haruki was aware of his greed and thirst for recognition. So, he decided to attack that part of him to convince him.
Despite having a glorious career, Ito was often involved in scandals. Even though many of them were false, Haruki knew that some of them were true.
Ito turned solemn upon hearing the last sentence.
With all those conditions, the proposal appeared even more enticing than before. Now, he couldn't bring himself to turn down the offer.
How could he reject such an opportunity?
If he could share the recognition of helping nurture a potential star, his value would skyrocket. Later, he could even receive multiple opportunities.
After all, a coach who specialized in youth nurturing was much more desirable.
Revealing a wry smile, Ito accepted the offer, "Then I'll be under your care, coach."

After some weeks.
"Breaking News! Junya Ito signs for Kawasaki."
"National Star Returns To His Homeland!"
"Isn't this a cheat code? Hiro and Ito are on the same team."
There were multiple articles regarding the transfer of Ito. The internet buzzed with the news regarding the transfer of Ito.
Given Ito's star status, the news regarding the transfer immediately became a hot topic in the nation. The transfer received nationwide attention, attracting the attention of almost every football fan in the nation.
Many media, celebrities, and football pundits spoke about the transfer with great enthusiasm.
The scale of the attention this transfer received was only inferior to the attention received by the transfer of one of the greatest midfielders in the world, "Andres Iniesta".
"You've made a great choice," Haruki said.
Ito who was preparing to head out smiled and said, "Well, how can I refuse to reunite with the coach who made me the person I am today."
Although he sounded full of gratitude, Haruki, however, didn't feel elated to hear those words. Rather he scoffed inwardly, 'You cheeky brat! You dare say those words of gratitude after all the convincing it took to sign you?'
Even though he wasn't impressed by his words, he didn't show the disdain he felt on his face. He kept those feelings within him and pretended to feel touched, "Say those words on the
stage, you brat!"
Ito, looking at the mirror before him smiled.
"Miss, make it natural, okay?" he said to the lady who was doing his makeup.
Right now, he was preparing for the unveiling ceremony. The stage had already been set and many reporters were flocking in their way to the venue.
Outside the venue where the unveiling of Ito was to be held, many small-time reporters were also covering the news. Since they hadn't been invited they couldn't enter the venue.
Even so, they weren't willing to let go of the opportunity. So, they had camped outside, reporting the atmosphere of the place.
"Look who is here for the ceremony- the current players of Kawasaki."
One of the reporters who had been covering the news shared enthusiastically as he saw a bunch of Kawasaki players heading inside the venue where the unveiling ceremony was to be held.
The inside was already packed. But even the outside wasn't spared. There were people all around the venue and the club officials had to deploy security personnel to maintain the
order.
Hiro and some others also arrived at the venue after a while.
Even before reaching the venue, Hiro could already hear the commotion and the lines of people around the vicinity. Just from the sheer number alone, Hiro could tell that it was a
huge deal.
Initially, he had wanted to reject the invitation.
But he didn't want to be seen as rude. So, he accepted the invitation.
Although Ito was a great player with great influence, Hiro who had traveled from the future
was well aware of the scandals he had gotten himself involved.
So, he wasn't optimistic about Ito like others were.
The player although great was problematic.
