In the following time, AC Milan successively bought Lapadula, Jose Sosa and other players, of which Lapadula was the top scorer in Serie B last season, the club's intention is obvious, just to let him play a substitute for Zhang Shujie; Jose Sosa's positioning is not the absolute main force, the former cost 9 million, the latter cost 7.5 million, from the point of view, it is not the value of a main player.

On the 4th of July, AC Milan informed the players that they would meet at the Milanello base in the next three days, and the training for the new season would begin. Zhang Shujie, Chen Zihua and Yan Tao returned to the training base the next day, and they were the first players to resist Milanello.

Although the squad has not yet fully arrived, several new signings have arrived, as well as Locatelli, who has been promoted from the reserves, has also appeared at the training ground.

AC Milan's investment is not very large, but in the follow-up, there should be players to come. Several players have also left, with El Shaarawy moving to Roma for 13 million euros, Virdi going to Bologna for 1.5 million euros, Balotelli returning to Rennes on loan, Matri, Mane and Boateng also leaving Milan on free transfers, and Alex and Mexes have not renewed their contracts with the team due to the expiration of their contracts, nor have they left, and are temporarily unemployed at home.

The saddest of all is Abbiati, who announced that he would hang up his boots after last season, and a generation of legendary goalkeepers will retire. He blessed AC Milan at his press conference and believed that AC Milan will be able to reach the top again in the future. At the same time, he also said such a sentence in front of all journalists.

"This AC Milan team lacks a central backbone and they need a leader who has a voice in the dressing room. In my opinion, Zhang Shujie is the most suitable candidate, he has the ability and status, and he will be the future standard-bearer of the AC Milan team. ”

The media understands what Abbiati means by this, and he thinks Zhang Shujie is the future captain of Milan. Although Montolivo still wears the captain's armband, many media or fans do not recognize his captaincy on the grounds that his aura is too weak and lacks that kind of leadership temperament.

Inzaghi has no idea of handing over the captain's armband at present, and he also knows that Zhang Shujie is more suitable to be the captain than Montolivo, but Zhang Shujie has only been in the team for one year after all, and the information is still shallow, while Montolivo is a veteran player. And there are academy players like Abate and Desiglio in the team. Of course, Desiglio's aura is probably weaker than Montolivo, and not as good as Abate.

Inzaghi needs to be inspected, any team needs a real leader to be the captain, and he also wants Zhang Shujie to be the guy he is waiting for.

**************************

The first day of training was not very intense, and it was basically some physical recovery training. After the training, Zhang Shujie did not practice free kicks, and just finished a long vacation, and his physical condition needs to be adjusted slowly, which is not suitable for too much practice.

Zhang Shujie asked Chen Zihua: "You just came to Milan and have no place to live, do you? Why don't you go to live with me tonight?"

Before Chen Zihua could speak, Yan Tao said: "Wang Shihan is at your house, where is it convenient for him to go? Go to my place, Qingqing will come over in two days." ”

Chen Zihua said with a smile: "No need, I found a house during the contract with Milan, how can I have no place to live!"

Zhang Shujie said: "Moving so fast?"

"Of course. However, lend me your Aston Martin for a few days, and the car I bought won't arrive in a few days. You can take Yan Tao's hitchhiker back today, anyway, you are close to each other. ”

Zhang Shujie threw the key to him: "No problem." By the way, where do you live, are you far away from us?"

"It's not too far, just across the street. If you walk, it will take about 10 minutes. ”

Yan Tao pouted: "My house and Zhang Shujie's house are only three minutes away. ”

"Aren't there any vacant rooms there? Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll go home first, and Zhou Ying is still waiting at home. ”

With that, he got into the car and drove away. Zhang Shujie also sat in Yan Tao's Mercedes-Benz and left the Milanello base.

On July 17, the club friendly match, AC Milan away against Bordeaux, this game Zhang Shujie, Chen Zihua, Yan Tao all appeared, Zhang Shujie scored a goal in the game, Chen Zihua gave an assist, both of them only played in the first half, and were replaced by Inzaghi in the second half. Suso, who replaced Zhang Shujiao, scored twice in the second half as AC Milan won 3-1 against Bordeaux.

The Rossoneri won their first warm-up game before the season, and Chan, who played only 45 minutes, was qualified and thought that as long as he kept it up, he would be even better when the league started.

On July 27, Juventus FC came with the news that the team signed Argentine striker Higuain from Napoli for 90 million euros, breaking the previous record of 70 million euros set by Chen Zihua this summer. However, Higuain's 90 million euros may not be able to become the real king, because Pogba's transfer has been put on the agenda.

Many media believe that Juventus has reached an agreement with Manchester United on the transfer of Pogba, otherwise Juventus would not have had so much money to buy a player, as for Pogba's transfer fee, there is no official announcement yet.

It wasn't until August 9 that Manchester United finally announced: Pogba joined Manchester United from Juventus for a whopping £89 million. This news immediately caused a sensation in world football, and 89 million pounds was converted into 101.5 million euros, which also exceeded the 94 million euros created by Ronaldo in the summer of 2009, becoming a veritable first value in history.

Pogba's transfer fee rose to first, Ronaldo had to drop to second, and Zhang Shujie's 93 million euros came to third. Some people began to wonder whether Pogba was really worth so much money, in fact, Higuain's 90 million had been questioned half a month ago, is this striker who can only abuse vegetables and play soft-footed games really worth 90 million? But when Pogba returned to Manchester United at a sky-high price of more than 100 million euros, people realized that sometimes the transfer fee is just a number.

Paris Saint-Germain couldn't help but sigh when they saw that Higuain and Pogba could sell at such a high price: "Chen Zihua's 70 million was too cheap at the beginning!"

Not only Paris, but also Bayern and Manchester United also regretted the transfer of Zhang Shujie and Ronaldo, Beckenbauer said: "Look at Pogba's transfer fee, Zhang Shujie should not have gone to Milan for less than 150 million euros in the first place. Needless to say, Ronaldo's affair has been publicly declared more than once that Ronaldo's £80 million transfer fee has been a big loss.

Pogba has been nicknamed "Bo 100 million" for this, and the high transfer fee is also under great pressure, if he can't play 100 million euros at Manchester United, the label of "parallel import" will definitely be attached to him.
