PS1: Ask for clicks, ask for favorites, ask for recommendations...... It's casual to reward everyone, let's not force it~

PS2: Here, I would like to thank the book friend "God doesn't understand" and "Lin Mengchen's tears" for their reward~

ps3: It seems that I went to bed early on Friday night, and the problem of not being able to get up on Saturday morning can't be cured in my life [cover my face]

PS4: The starting point of this cover is too pitiful, I don't know the estimate that I think this is a player article...... Also, why didn't the starting point group contact me in advance when they made the cover?

"Speaking of which, there's one thing, maybe Ricciardo can help me. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Hearing Garrone say this, George suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly said, "I found a young striker with good potential two days ago, and I have already signed him for 1 million pounds. But he wasn't good enough to get a foothold at Tottenham, so I was looking for him to find a suitable team to work on on loan. I don't know, Ricardo, would you be interested in helping me with this little favor?"

While the plans for Tottenham's first-team squad are not yet fully worked out, that doesn't stop George from making a move in the transfer market right now. In George's view, unless there are very special circumstances, it is better to complete player trades as early as possible, especially when bringing in those target players. Lest you have to change your plans and look for a replacement for this player in the transfer market because of your hesitation or the desire to wait and see, and you will have to change your plans and look for a replacement for this player in the transfer market, which will have an unpredictable impact on the team's performance in the new season.

Guided by this mentality, George continued to refine his recruitment plan while sending people to bring in players who had already been included in his recruitment list. Dean Ashton, who was bought from Crewe FC for a transfer fee of £1 million, Matthew Taylor, the main left-back of League One club Portsmouth, and Aston Villa's Northern Ireland youngster Steven Davies, are part of George's achievements in the transfer market during this period.

Whenever he mentions Ashton, who had a bright future in his previous life, but had to retire early due to an ankle injury, George feels very regretful and regretful. Therefore, when there was a chance to recruit Ashton in advance in this life, George did not hesitate to choose to make a move, hoping to change Ashton's regrettable fate.

However, after taking Ashton and Davis, George did not let the two young players start from the youth team. Because with their abilities, they can now go to the professional league to experience it. Therefore, George decisively recommended Ashton after Garrone expressed his willingness to help Tottenham develop young players, hoping that the young striker who is not yet 20 years old can be fully trained in Sampdoria and Serie A, and lay a good foundation for growing into a new generation of England's strong center forwards.

After all, the Italian league is more focused on the defensive and tactical awareness of players than the English league, which has a faster pace of play and an overemphasis on physical confrontation. That's why George chose to loan Ashton, who was educated in traditional English football, to Sampdoria, hoping that the centre-forward can learn how to play to his strengths more effectively in Serie A and develop the ability to read the game, rather than relying on his body to rampage through the box.

As for Steven Davis and Matthew Taylor, George has no plans to loan them to Sampdoria. On the one hand, it is because the two men have clearly expressed their resistance to playing outside England when they have communicated with George before, and George naturally cannot act according to their ideas, and on the other hand, because their technical characteristics are not suitable for survival in Serie A, and without the support of Ashton's strong physique, it is very likely to lose their way on the Apennine Peninsula.

By the way, in addition to Ashton and Matthew Taylor, who play in the lower leagues or youth teams in England and are relatively easy to get by, teams such as West Ham United, which was unfortunately relegated last season, and Leeds United, which are suffering from financial problems, are also key targets for George at this time. It's just that because there are too many buyers eyeing these two clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea and other Premier League giants, George is not very sure how much Tottenham can get in the feast of carving up these two famous youth teams in England.

"Haha, George, I could have agreed to your request right now. Although he didn't know who Dean Ashton was, Garrone could still hear what George meant, and knew that the other party was going to loan him out of a promising young player, "Well, in order to show my sincerity, and in order not to let this good seedling waste on the cold bench, I am willing to add an additional clause to Ashton's loan contract." If Ashton doesn't play more than 800 minutes for Sampdoria before the winter break, Tottenham have the right to recall him once the winter transfer door opens...... What do you think of the conditions?"

Despite the meticulous operation of former general manager Marotta and the command of head coach Novellino, Sampdoria finished second in Serie B last season and successfully qualified for the 03-04 Serie A season, Garrone still has a clear understanding of the team's current strength. Therefore, George's suggestion to send Ashton on loan to Sampdoria for a baptism in Serie A can be said to be in the hands of Garrone - for Sampdoria, who have just emerged from the quagmire of the second division, Tottenham, who have been firmly in the middle of the Premier League, is undoubtedly a thigh worth relying on.

Of course, when Sampdoria gains a foothold in Serie A and even has the ability to qualify for European competition every year, then Tottenham will be abandoned by Garrone without hesitation and look for a thicker and stronger thigh.

"Thank you so much, Ricardo. Seeing Garrone's willingness to accept Ashton's loan deal, and also made such a guarantee about playing time, George immediately expressed his gratitude to the other party on the phone. Although he also knew in his heart that Garrone did this partly because he was buying insurance for Ashton to be unable to adapt to the rhythm of Serie A.

Although George in his previous life had a lot of dissatisfaction with some of Garrone's actions, such as the handling of Cassano and Pacini was a little too simple and rude, in George's eyes, Garrone was the most indispensable person to Sampdoria compared to Marotta and Novellino. Without Garrone's clear idea of the team's construction, Marotta and Novelino no matter how capable they are, it is impossible for Sampdoria to gain a long-term foothold in Serie A - Sampdoria in the Mantovani Junior period has never lacked stars and famous coaches, but the results of the Sea Blue Army have deteriorated, and finally said goodbye to Serie A at the end of the 98-99 season, which is the best evidence.

"Also, I don't know if Ricardo has any way to help me contact the president of the Parma club, that is, Mr. Calisto Tanzi?" After negotiating the loan deal for Ashton, George suddenly remembered a family that was about to be unlucky, and a club that was about to have cups, and had a hint of the idea of taking the opportunity to rob him, "If you can, please ask Ricciardo for you to work hard to set up a line, so that I can meet Mr. Callisto." ”

"No problem, George, just wait for my good news. After saying that, Garrone said goodbye to George on the phone, and then called the head coach Novellino, ready to tell the other party that the team is about to welcome a strong center forward from England.

On the other hand, after ending the call with Garrone and successfully finding a home for Ashton, George began to concentrate and prepare for the upcoming grand carve-up feast of the two unlucky ghosts, West Ham United and Leeds United!

As for the meeting with Callisto Tanzi, as Alan Schuger promised to help George and Murdoch in the middle, George was not very urgent. He just wants to be able to get enough benefits for Tottenham on Parma before the Parmalat incident erupts. For example, it took Parma and the Tanzi family more than a decade to build the youth system that spread across Italy and allowed Parma to remain in Serie A after the collapse of Parmalat in their previous life.

Until then, though, George's main task is to bring in Tottenham for the new season, to get the first-team squad back to full strength before pre-season training, and to get the new squad in a basic fit before the start of the Premier League.

So, after handing over some minor transfers to Marotta to take charge of bringing in the players, George drove to Upton Park on Green Street, where West Ham acting boss Trevor Brooking was waiting for his arrival.

This time, George's target is West Ham United's main midfielder, Michael Carrick!
