Elano was working as Santos assistant coach in early 2017 when he heard how much Liverpool were willing to pay for the club's new wonderkid Rodrygo. He was not impressed at all. "I went to the board and said, 'No, no, we can't let him leave for this,'" the former Manchester City midfielder tells BBC Sport. "It was a 3m euro offer only and the talks were already at an advanced stage. It was pretty much a done deal. They had a verbal agreement but I insisted, 'We can't do this'. "He was just 16 years old back then and, although the team had high hopes for him, it was not clear yet when he would be playing for the senior side. So I went to Rodrygo and told him, 'We will promote you soon. You have my word.' "A little while after, I ended up taking charge as a caretaker manager and so, much sooner than expected, I could do what I had promised him. I brought him to train with us and gave him his first minutes as a professional footballer." Ultimately, Rodrygo agreed to sign a new contract and stayed with the Brazilian giants for another season. In mid-2018, however, he finally left Santos, but not for Liverpool. Instead, he signed for Real Madrid after the Spaniards came knocking with a 45m euro bid. Now, when both teams meet in Paris for the Champions League final on Saturday, the forward will be on the opposing side of long-time admirer Jurgen Klopp. Rodrygo has proved crucial on Real's epic journey to the Stade de France, scoring five goals, including two goals in just over a minute in stoppage time in the 3-1 comeback win over Manchester City in arguably the greatest semi-final in history. Such is the hype around the 21-year-old this season that he has been dubbed 'Mr Champions'. It remains to be seen whether he will return to haunt Liverpool. Recognition at a younger age than Neymar The softly spoken and down-to-earth Rodrygo is no stranger to the limelight despite his tender years. At 11, he became the youngest Brazilian player to sign with Nike, beating the previous record of 13 that belonged to Neymar, another Vila Belmiro product. That same year, Rodrygo gave his first interview and was invited to join Pele and other legends when Santos celebrated their centenary anniversary. He has never let fame get to his head, though, with much of the credit going to his parents. A second-tier right-back for most of his life, his father Eric Goes dreamed about sharing the pitch with Rodrygo, but could not fulfil it, so retired in 2016 to focus on his son's career. "Rodrygo never worried about being like Neymar or any other player from Santos," says Elano, who has made a promising start as a manager back home. "He wanted to write his own story and we all knew the potential for that was there. Perhaps people who don't know him can't tell that, but he has a strong character. That's key for any athlete's success. "He was made for the big stages. He doesn't feel the pressure. He was still going to school when he scored his first goal in the Copa Libertadores. It's not every day that you see something like that happening."Real Madrid deal was sealed in Liverpool Rodrygo is enjoying his best season for Real and, after winning La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup, wants to finish it with the Champions League trophy. Playing against Liverpool will be extra special not only because he almost signed for them, but because the whole operation that led him to the Bernabeu took place in the English city too. In 2018, Santos' then president Jose Carlos Peres was in Liverpool with the Brazil team and, on the eve of a World Cup warm-up match against Croatia, Real sporting director Juni Calafat got in touch asking him if they could meet in a Starbucks cafe next to their hotel. Once Peres arrived, Calafat pulled his tablet out and made a video call to president Florentino Perez. The whole conversation did not last more than half an hour. It was clear money would not be an issue to sign Rodrygo this time. The following day, they watched the Brazil game together in a box at Anfield and finalised the paperwork for a deal that would be officially announced a week later. Despite interest from Paris St-Germain, Bayern Munich and Barcelona, Rodrygo was never in doubt about his decision. He had watched Real beat Liverpool 3-1 in the Champions League final that year and had made his mind up. They have not won it since. It is now up to 'Mr Champions' and company to change that in Paris.

Police were urged to charge into a deadly school shooting in
Texas by onlookers, witnesses say, with one suggesting he
considered doing so himself as he became frustrated.
Texas officials say gunman Salvador Ramos was inside the
school in Uvalde for up to an hour before he was killed.
Nineteen children and two adults died, while 17 others were
injured.
Eyewitness Juan Carranza told the Associated Press that
women shouted at officers to "go in there".
But the 24-year-old, who witnessed the scene at the Robb
Elementary School from outside his house, said police did not
enter.
Javier Cazares, whose daughter was killed in the attack, told
the news agency he suggested running in with other onlookers
because the police "weren't doing anything".
Authorities said the gunman locked himself in a classroom
which officers then struggled to gain access to.
Steven McCraw, the director of the Texas Department of
Public Safety, told a news conference on Wednesday that the
gunman was on site for between 40 minutes and an hour
before law enforcement were able to "contain" him.
US Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz, meanwhile, told CNN that
dozens of officers responded to the shooting and "didn't
hesitate".
"They entered that classroom and they took care of the
situation as quickly as they possibly could," he said.
It has also emerged that the attacker sent messages on social
media about the shooting minutes before it happened.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott said Ramos had promised to
shoot his grandmother in private messages sent 30 minutes
before the attack.
A later message declared he had done so, and in a final one
sent 15 minutes before the shooting, he announced he would
target an elementary school.
According to CNN, the private messages were sent to a 15-
year-old girl in Germany who Ramos had met online.
In a statement, Meta, Facebook's parent company, said the
"private one-to-one text messages" were "discovered after the
terrible tragedy occurred". It added that it was "closely co-
operating" with investigators.Tuesday's events in Uvalde - an unassuming town some 80
miles (129km) from San Antonio - brought the discussion
around gun control once again to the fore, even as members
of the small community sought to make sense of the tragedy.
Many there expressed divided attitudes about guns.
"As a kid, I remember my uncles teaching me and training me
on how to hold a gun," Carlos Velasquez, a local resident, told
the BBC.
"The juxtaposition of good safety with what just happened is
so nuanced. It's not just a clean-cut thought - it's a really
sticky situation and sticky conversation to have now," he said.
Others, however, were shocked that Ramos was able to carry
out an attack with an AR-15 style semi-automatic rifle.
"This kid was just 18. You have to be 21 to drink. How?" asked
Sandra Parra, who lives down the street from the school. "I
hope there are changes," she said, referring to gun laws in
Texas. "I don't have a gun myself, but if I did, it would be for
protection," she added.
It is legal to buy a gun at 18 in Texas, and according to US
media, the attacker bought his soon after his birthday.
Described as a loner from a "fraught home life", the gunman
shot his grandmother before fleeing the scene in a battered
truck carrying firearms and copious ammunition. He then
drove erratically across town and crashed his car into a ditch
near Robb Elementary School.
An officer engaged with him, but failed to stop him from
entering the school. He then proceeded to shoot 19 children
and two teachers dead, before officers converged on the
classroom and a border patrol officer who had responded
while nearby killed him, according to Mr Abbott.
Mr Abbott said there had been no history to suggest the
gunman could be a danger apart from the social media
messages sent before the killings.
Speaking on Wednesday, US President Joe Biden said the idea
that a teenager was able to legally purchase weapons that
were "designed and marketed to kill, is just wrong".
"I'm just sick and tired of what's going on and what continues
to go on," he said, calling for "action" on gun control.
His comments followed an incident at Mr Abbott's news
conference, where the governor's Democratic challenger for
office, Beto O'Rourke, heckled the Republican for not doing
enough on gun control.
In response, Mr Abbott accused Mr O'Rourke of grandstanding.
According to the Texas Politics Project, only 43% of Texans
support stricter gun laws. Nationally, the figure is 53% in
support, according to a 2021 Pew Research Center poll.
As more details of the mass shooting emerged, the Uvalde
community grieved.
The children killed were aged between seven and 10 years old.
Teachers Eva Mireles and Irma Garcia also died in the attack.
More than a dozen people were also wounded.
Vigils took place for the victims of the shooting, while people
have been laying flowers near the school campus as tributes.
"The normality is not here anymore," Ms Parra said.
"Uvalde will be known for its mass shooting," said Mr
Velazquez. "That's really unfortunate."

Bloggers don start. They want to cash out on the poor girl's misfortune.

This is government is so insensitive to the plight of the masses.
The truth is, this strike does not only affect the student but also those that depend on the presence of students in campus to make their living.
Think about those that sell their goods in hostels
Think about those that photocopy materials and sell stationeries.
Think about those little boys and girls that hawk satchet water in lesture halls.

@Op stop making a mountain out of a mole hill. Some people are just private about their matters and don't want to flaunt things on social media. What you should be concerned about is how she treats you and the children. If she is loving and caring, I don't think there is anything to worry about.
