"We are absolutely impossible to run a big deal of more than 50 million euros!"

This was Wenger's answer to media inquiries at a press conference two days ago.

Arsenal has made a lot of money in the transfer market this summer, and the departure of players such as Cesc Fabregas, Van Persie, Nasri, and Klich has given Arsenal 150 million euros in transfer income, but not much investment in the transfer market.

Youngster Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Southampton, wide player Gervinho from Lille, midfielder Mikel Arteta from Everton, and defender Mertesacker from Werder Bremen......

In addition to the teenager Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, several other transfers are typical of Wen-style operations, pursuing the ultimate value for money, which certainly makes Arsenal have a lot of money in their hands, but also makes the Gunners much criticized.

For example, the central defender, who was originally rumored to be Bolton's Gary Cahill in the transfer market, but the price quoted by Bolton for the central defender was unacceptable to Wenger, as high as 25 million euros, so Wenger quickly shifted his target and brought in Mertesacker from Werder Bremen, which cost only 10 million euros, less than half of Gary Cahill.

The attitude of the media and fans towards Arsenal's approach is generally more controversial, I don't know whether to say that he is diligent and thrifty, or Wenger picks the goal, or is it true that Arsenal does not have the funds to invest in transfer operations?

After Van Persie's transfer, it was revealed that Arsenal intended to forcibly poach Manchester City's substitute striker Sturridge, the England homegrown striker performed quite well under Gao Han, but Manchester City had to succumb to Benzema, although Manchester City constantly emphasized that Sturridge was not for sale, but there have been scandals.

However, according to the information given by the outside world, Sturridge will be worth more than 50 million euros.

Everyone knows that Arsenal are in desperate need of a quality striker, and Sturridge is exactly what Arsenal need, and the Gunners have 150 million euros in transfer income in their hands, and they can afford Sturridge.

So, after being pressed by the media, Wenger gave a very positive answer at the press conference, Arsenal will never run a big deal of more than 50 million euros, which is tantamount to closing the door to Sturridge's joining.

But not Sturridge, so who could it be?

Wenger himself also had a headache, sitting in the office, repeatedly looking at the player information and information submitted by the scouting team, his brow furrowed tightly, and he never relaxed for a moment.

Sturridge is too expensive!

Arsene Wenger thought with some wistfulness.

It's not that he is not interested in Sturridge, but the English player is indeed too expensive, although the media is just hype, it may exceed 50 million euros, but in reality, it is impossible to convince Manchester City that this price is simply impossible.

The Middle East tycoon is not short of money, and this season he has introduced Ancelotti, who is good at playing cup games, and is ambitious to continue to make a difference on many fronts such as the Premier League and the Champions League.

Besides, Sturridge has just renewed his contract with Manchester City, and his annual salary has risen sharply, and if Arsenal is forced to poach, he will have to make huge sacrifices in terms of transfer fees and annual salary, which Wenger absolutely does not want to see.

If Sturridge had lowered either of his annual salary and transfer fee, he would have not hesitated to bring in the England international, but right now, the price of bringing in the England international is too great for Arsenal to afford.

Moreover, the transfer market this summer has indeed been too hot.

Paris Saint-Germain has invested more than 300 million euros in the transfer market after bringing in Suarez, who was bitten by the vampire, which has directly caused an unprecedented boom in the European transfer market, similar to the scene when Manchester City detonated the transfer market two years ago.

As a result, Arsene Wenger had to think more carefully.

If you don't bring in reinforcements, you certainly won't.

Liverpool's performance last season was not ideal, but this summer is ambitious, investing heavily in the introduction of Downing, Henderson, Charlie Adam, Coates, Enrique and Bellamy, the Reds have steadily improved this season, on the other hand, Arsenal, lost four absolute main players, and the strength has been greatly reduced.

If they fail to bring in more reinforcements in the front, the Gunners may not be able to retain the top four in the league.

Losing the Champions League qualification will make Arsenal's situation even worse, and the loss will be extremely painful.

The pile of materials in front of Wenger is a list of players sent by the scouting team, including Mario Gomez, a center forward who plays for Stuttgart in the Bundesliga, who has scored well in the Bundesliga in recent seasons and is very consistent, but his value is not low, at least more than 40 million euros.

Dzeko, the center forward who plays for Wolfsburg, is also very strong, and like Gomez, his value is not low, at least more than 40 million euros, otherwise, it will be difficult to convince Wolfsburg to release him.

There is also the 25-year-old center forward Michu, who plays for Chinatown in La Liga, who was the top scorer in Spain last season, beating the likes of Torres, Villa and Negredo, and his performance can be described as quite good, and he is very well-rounded, and he is an impressive player.

Negredo, a 26-year-old centre-forward who plays for Sevilla, scored 20 goals in La Liga last season, second only to Michu among Spanish players, and is also a very strong left-footed centre-forward.

The above four players are all in Arsenal's selection, and they are all very suitable, but they are also worth a lot of money, especially Michu in Chinatown, with a cold aura, but everyone knows that it is not impossible to dig players in Chinatown, but to give enough termination money.

Michu's release fee was as high as 50 million euros, which directly scared off Juventus, who wanted to buy the door, and the old lady finally chose Roma's Vucinić, and the transfer fee was only 15 million euros.

Arsene Wenger is not without substitutes at the moment, such as Moussa So, who plays for Lille in Ligue 1, who was the top scorer in Ligue 1 last season and Senegal's leading striker, scoring 25 goals in 36 games and a transfer fee expected to be around 15 million euros.

There is also Kevin Gameiro, who plays for Lorient in Ligue 1, who has scored 17 goals and 22 goals in Ligue 1 in two consecutive seasons, and his strength is also good, and the transfer fee is also around 15 million euros.

But Wenger has to consider another problem, that is, the competition in Ligue 1 is not fierce, many players who shine in Ligue 1 have performed very generally in the Premier League, either not adapting, or their own strength is insufficient......

In front of Wenger, there is a line of life and death, that is, the top four in the league.

He has to make sure he has the quality to keep a top-four finish in the league, but now that the team has four main players in a summer, Wenger can't imagine the team's results in the new season if there are further problems with the forward recruitment.

"Perhaps, this money really can't be spent anymore. Wenger muttered to himself.

…………

At the same time, Paris, France, Charles de Gaulle Airport.

As the busiest international airport in the world, Charles de Gaulle Airport welcomes countless passengers every day, including celebrities from all walks of life and even world-class celebrities, which makes it not uncommon for fans to be dropped off and picked up at the airport.

But today, the atmosphere inside the airport is markedly different, which also attracts the attention of ground staff.

"Call center, you need support outside the pick-up gate, you need support at the pick-up gate. ”

"Roger, receiving, what's going on?"

"There were a lot of media reporters gathered at the scene, as well as a large number of fans, and the number of people was getting bigger and bigger, and it looked like they were coming to pick up the airport. ”

"What's going on?

"It was a direct flight from Beijing to Paris, and it was a cold flight. ”

"Gao Han? Oh my God, is he on this flight? Why didn't anyone inform us in advance?"

"I don't know, maybe he wants to keep a low profile, but where did the reporter dig up the news?"

"In the center, the fans gathered more and more, and quickly arranged manpower support. ”

……

An Airbus flying non-stop from Beijing, China, to Paris has finally landed slowly on the runway of Charles de Gaulle Airport.

There were deafening cheers at the pick-up gate, a large number of fans held high banners to welcome Gao Han, and the media reporters stationed at the scene were like a great enemy, scrambling to take photos of Gao Han walking out of the pick-up gate.

Even, if you can, it's better to pull him over and go straight to a close-up interview.

Who will be the first lucky person to interview Gao Han?

This has become the hottest topic in the French media for some time now, and countless celebrities have been gearing up.

According to the in-depth excavation of the media, it turned out that as early as June and July, Paris Saint-Germain had reached an agreement with Gao Han, but the two sides did not disclose any news to the outside world, and Gao Han's coaching staff officially settled in Paris Saint-Germain's training base in mid-July, fully taking over the daily operations and training preparations of Paris Saint-Germain.

According to outside speculation, a very important reason why Gao Han is hiding behind the scenes is to facilitate the transfer operation, and he is worried that the player who will be favored by Paris Saint-Germain will sit on the ground and raise the price, so he did not come forward in person.

However, in order to capture Gao Han's intelligence, the French media reporters in China did everything possible to break into the interior of the capital airport, obtained first-hand information about Gao Han after purchasing air tickets, and notified France in time, which is why there is now a grand occasion of receiving the airport.

The waiting time is undoubtedly the hardest, especially the long wait.

I don't know if there was an accident, but the passengers of this flight took a little longer to get off the plane.

It wasn't until everyone was waiting a little impatiently that they saw the passengers who came on the flight walking out of the pick-up gate one after another, and sharp-eyed media reporters and fans quickly searched for Gao Han's trace in the crowd, but found nothing.

"Quick, quick, quick, we guessed wrong, he went out directly through the internal passage, chase after him!"

I don't know who shouted such a voice, but all the media reporters and fans reacted and hurriedly chased out one by one.

But when the media reporters and fans were panting and chased out of the waiting hall, they just saw three reception cars with the Paris Saint-Germain logo quickly leaving the airport, which made the media reporters fry.

"Chase, get in the car and chase!"

Reporters rushed into the parking lot, got into the car and quickly drove away from the airport, chasing the club's reception car.

But there are still many reporters and fans standing outside the airport gate, looking at the car in the distance and sighing.

Unexpectedly, it was a pounce.

But what they didn't know was that at this moment, Gao Han was in a black-coated Renault car not far from them, patting Mendes and Antro Enrique on the shoulder for the rest of his life, and rejoicing: "Fortunately, you guys are witty enough." ”

Mendez had a look of lessness and waved for the driver to go.

They then left the airport with grace.

Gao Han, on the other hand, looked at the lost reporters and fans outside through the car window, and his heart was not without excitement.

France, I'm coming!
