Chapter 453: The Pearl of the Night in Mallorca

Is Isma an absolute non-sale at Sporting Gijón?

Of course not. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If Mallorca can offer conditions that Sporting Gijón cannot refuse, Leon will not mind facilitating the transfer.

It's just that he doesn't think Mallorca can give a too high price, Mallorca is not a local tyrant club, they are unlikely to spend money on Isma, maybe Cooper's Mallorca is interested in Isma, that is, he thinks Isma is good and cheap.

However, this does not prevent Li Ang from listening to Cooper's offer, after all, the other party is also a famous coach in football now, and the coffee seat is there.

"Mr. Cooper, we're all honest people. "How much are you willing to pay for Isma?"

Leon also doesn't want to go around the bend with Coopa, the other party can give a high price, then there is a negotiation, if not, sorry, then close the door to negotiation.

Then he heard Cooper's reply of 1.5 million euros, and Leon immediately shook his head: The offer of 1.5 million euros, is it low? It's not too low, to be precise, it's more in line with Isma's current value, but, don't forget, Leon doesn't plan to sell Isma, this is completely Mallorca's initiative to buy, the supply and demand are there, and this price can't impress Leon.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cooper, but I can't accept this offer. "Actually, Isma is also important to Sporting Gijón, and I'm not in the habit of pushing important players into the transfer market. ”

Leon's attitude is clear, first of all, I can't impress Mallorca's offer, and the other is that he has no intention of selling Isma. The underlying meaning of the combination of the two meanings is: unless there is an offer that cannot be refused, then, sorry, there is no need to continue the conversation.

***********

Just as Leon was about to tactfully end the call with Cooper, the Argentine coach proposed a final plan.

If Leon has his eye on any player in Mallorca, he can join Isma's transfer talks.

This is to see that the transfer fee cannot meet Li Ang, and he intends to use the player exchange as a bargaining chip.

After listening to Leon, he subconsciously continued to refuse, Mallorca's players? Their players Leon really don't look down on it, Leon's team building policy for Sporting Gijón is targeted and has a long-term plan, Mallorca's players can only be said to be relatively ordinary players in the middle and lower reaches of La Liga, if you evaluate according to the level setting of the players in the system, they are basically A-level, such players, Leon is not looking down on.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cooper, for this ......" Leon was about to refuse, his mind was going through Mallorca's players, as a head coach, you must know the situation of your opponent very well, Leon is even more terrifying, his mind is like a video recorder, with the opponent's team of every player's information, player name, field position, technical characteristics, and even shortcomings and strengths, has his own analysis and cognition.

Then, a name seemed to pop out of those flashes of names in my mind.

So, Leon paused, and his answer to Cooper on the other end of the line was, "Mr. Cooper, I need to think about it, and I'll call you back as soon as possible." ”

Cooper on the other end of the phone sighed when he heard Leon say this, he almost thought that this was a polite refusal of the Sporting Gijón manager, of course, Cooper still retained the last glimmer of hope.

He and Li Ang agreed that if they succeeded or not, they would hear back as soon as possible, and then the two ended the call.

Juan Arango!

This was the name that suddenly came to Leon's mind.

A Venezuelan midfielder in Mallorca!

After the name popped up, all the information about the player, his past, his current performance, and even the future achievements of the man in the original history began to appear in Leon's mind like a movie.

Arango's first appearance in the eyes of Chinese fans, including Ang Lee, was 12 years ago. In early 2001, a weekly issue of Sports translated an article in the world football magazine called "Top 100 Rising Stars in Football in the New Century", and the young Arango was among them.

Leon remembers the comments about Arango in the article he saw: Arango, a Venezuelan, was born on May 17, 1980, and played for Monterrey, Mexico. Confident and with a very good sense of the ball and a sharp left-footed shot, it is puzzling that the 21-year-old attacking midfielder is not a regular for the Venezuelan national team.

Of course, that was reported in 2001, and now Juan Arango is a Venezuelan international and a regular player in the team.

***********

Born in Maracay, Venezuela, to Colombian parents, Arango became a professional player for Nuevas at the age of 16. In the 1999-2000 season, Arango was bought by Mexican team Monterrey with a good performance of 5 goals in 19 games.

After five years in the Mexican Premier League, he developed into one of the top stars in the Mexican Super League, and it was only natural that Arango received offers from teams in Europe's top five leagues. In his first stop, he opted for La Liga, which focuses more on attack and technique, and joined Mid-Table Mallorca.

Arango's first season was a tumultuous one, starting with a very serious injury in a game in March '05 that sidelined the team for most of the season, and then the team's results plummeted, finishing 17th in the league and narrowly avoiding relegation.

However, the following season, Arango recovered from injury and became Mallorca's top scorer in 05-06 with 11 league goals, and was ranked third in La Liga's best Latin American player in '06 by Efe (Aimar first), and was nicknamed "Caribbean Hurricane".

In the summer of 2009, Arango, who still had a year left on his contract with Mallorca, decided not to renew his contract with the club and wanted to take on a new challenge. The team was also worried that he would not get a penny until next year, so they sold the absolute core of the team to Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga for 3.3 million euros. Borussia Mönchen, who had just lost Marin, acquired a Venezuelan national treasure player at a low price.

After arriving at Borussia Monchenchen, Arango quickly integrated into the team, and as a seasoned player, he began to become more involved in attacking organisations, and under the tutelage of Bundesliga tactician Favre, the club made great progress. With the outstanding performances of players such as Arango, Reuss, Hermann, Dante and Ter Stegen, this veteran Bundesliga powerhouse won fourth in the league in the 11-12 season and returned to Europe after 16 years. It can be said that Royce's growth is due to Arango's great attribution.

***********

Of course, Arango has only been in Mallorca for half a season at this time, and his current performance can only be said to be very average, and there is nothing outstanding about it, which is also a reason why Mallorca is currently in the relegation zone, of course, because Arango came to Mallorca on a free transfer and did not spend a penny on Mallorca, so no one is too demanding and critical of Arango, and the Spanish media has never paid attention to this Venezuelan player.

However, Leon is aware of Arango's future achievements, he can be said to grow into the absolute core of the small island team of Mallorca in the future, Mallorca's home stadium has also become the famous Devil's Stadium in La Liga, which is inseparable from Arango's excellent performance, and later in Borussia Mönchengladbach, Arango is also the absolute core of the team, this Venezuelan, who has not played for a giant team in his entire career, is known as a national treasure of Venezuela and the greatest star of the country.

Leon was a little excited, the current Arango, the twenty-four-year-old Venezuelan player, had a very average performance in Mallorca, and had not yet been able to adapt to the Europa League, which was like a night pearl covered with thick dust, no one paid attention to it at all, no one paid attention to it......

In addition, Arango has a Spanish passport, which is also great news for Sporting Gijón, which no longer has a non-European quota.

And the most important point is that Mallorca didn't know they had such a big baby in the team right now......

Can you take this opportunity to get this dusty night pearl and wipe it gently, and it will become a dazzling pearl of Athletic Gijón in the future?!

Li Ang's heart pounded.
