Chapter 943: Smashing the Superstar
Toby Alderweireld, 40 million euros!
With Manchester United's official announcement, the transfer quickly sparked a strong earthquake in the European transfer market.
After Thiago Silva set a sky-high price of 50 million euros for a central defender, Alderweireld once again refreshed everyone's perception of the value of a central defender, and also made everyone in the entire transfer market clearly aware of the scarcity of good central defenders.
Some media generally believe that Manchester United's transfer fee for bringing in Alderweireld is high, but there are also some media who think it is a good deal, if even a young rookie like Phil Jones who has not yet proven his strength can sell 20 million euros, then why is Alderweireld, who has proven his strength in La Liga for many seasons, worth 40 million?
To say that Phil Jones has an English native, but isn't the alpine halo above Alderweireld's head more valuable?
But in the football circle, the consensus of more people is not about the value, but about admiring Ferguson's cunning.
In the current European football, including Chelsea, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus, many giants have vacancies in central defenders, and the introduction of high-level central defenders is imminent, and there are not many excellent central defenders who are hot in the transfer market.
David Luiz and Thiago Silva both switched to Paris Saint-Germain at a high price, and among the remaining central defenders, the most sought-after are Alderweireld and Otamendi in Chinatown.
There is a saying in the European transfer market that it is not the strength of the player that determines the value of a player, but the supply and demand in the market, so after Alderweireld moved to Manchester United, Otamendi's value soared again.
If many teams were still counting on negotiating with Chinatown to get Otamendi at a price lower than the release fee, then after Alderweireld's transfer, everyone had only one thought, and the release money could get Otamendi, which was already a big profit.
In this case, Arsenal have weak financial resources, so they announced early that they will withdraw from the competition for Otamendi, and Wenger clearly wants to be able to invest more transfer fees in the centre-forward, which is the most urgent need of the Gunners at the moment.
But interestingly, Arsene Wenger has his eye on the new Spanish international who plays for Chinatown, Michel.
The day after announcing Alderweireld's transfer to Manchester United, China City immediately announced that it would bring in 26-year-old central defender Miranda from Sao Paulo, Brazil, on a free transfer.
Mauricio Pochettino, who has just returned to Spain after leading the team to Asia, has also publicly stated that he is very happy that the team can sign Miranda quickly, "I know him, he is a very strong central defender. ”
Almost at the same time as signing Miranda in Chinatown, Paris Saint-Germain also officially announced the introduction of young player Lucas Moura from Sao Paulo for 30 million euros.
The player was in excellent form at the Under-20 Championship at the start of the year, notably against Uruguay, where he scored a hat-trick with Neymar and was named one of the 13 most noteworthy rising stars of 2011 by FIFA.
Lucas Moura also said in an interview with the media in Brazil that he is looking forward to the trip to Paris Saint-Germain.
"That's the team Ronaldinho played for, I'm very eager to follow in the footsteps of my predecessors and step into the Europa League, and as far as I know, PSG is an ambitious team. ”
Just before everyone reacted to Lucas Moura's transfer, Paris Saint-Germain once again announced the results of the team's recruitment, and it was a superstar and a sky-high price.
For 40 million euros, Paris Saint-Germain brought in Brazilian left-back Marcelo from Bayern Munich.
Marcelo is known as the best and most lethal left-back in today's football, and has always been Bayern Munich's left-sided Tianzun, but under the strong poaching of Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich still failed to stop the Jinyuan offensive after all.
According to the analysis of the Bundesliga media, a very important reason why Bayern Munich is willing to let go of Marcelo is that Austrian teenager David Alaba performed quite well after being loaned to Hoffenheim last season, and Bayern Munich intended to recall him to the team for reuse, so he took the opportunity to sell Marcelo at a high price to cash out.
With Marcelo's switch to Paris Saint-Germain, the entire backline of the Ligue 1 tycoon is also full of samba flavor, gathering three of the four defenders of the Brazilian national team, just one on the right side of Alves or McConn.
The continuous blockbuster transfers have made the attention of the media and fans all over the world focus on this Ligue 1 tycoon, especially since it has been rumored that Gao Han will coach Paris Saint-Germain, which has made the attention of Ligue 1 skyrocket, and Paris Saint-Germain's every move is particularly attention-grabbing.
Soon, Di Marzio, a well-known Italian transfer expert, announced on his personal website that Inter Milan midfielder Yaya Toure has basically confirmed that he will switch to Paris Saint-Germain for a transfer fee of 40 million euros.
…………
…………
Bang!
The sound of the case came from inside the office of the president of the Bernabeu.
Florentino snapped the case and glared at the newly appointed club chief executive Angel Sanchez, who was now not only in charge of the commercial side of the operation, but also took over the burden of transfer operations, which can be described as a huge increase in power, but only a few days after taking office, the transfer market gave him a hot slap in the face.
Yaya Toure, whom Real Madrid has been pursuing, moved to Paris Saint-Germain.
"Forty million euros?" Florentino looked calm, but his tone was full of anger, "We are sitting on a transfer budget of two or three hundred million, can't we afford to pay these forty million euros?"
Sánchez stood solemnly across from his desk, and only after Florentino had questioned him did he reply sarcastically: "Mr. Perez, the main thing is that we are too slow. ”
Raising his head and glancing at Florentino, who snorted coldly, apparently waiting for a reasonable explanation, Sanchez quickly continued.
'We were busy with the transfers of Shahin, Callejon and Altentop, then Coentrão, you know, Mourinho wanted these players, so the transfer department always put these transfers first. ”
After Mourinho overthrew the club's general manager Baldano last season, the latter left Real Madrid, and Mourinho has increased his power within the club, now controlling all competitive powers except transfer operations, and holding the two positions of sporting director and manager.
Yaya Toure's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain was completed relatively suddenly, Paris Saint-Germain contacted Inter Milan through Mendes, and the two sides may even have only had one round of negotiations, Paris Saint-Germain agreed to Inter Milan's request, 40 million euros, and Yaya Toure quickly reached a consensus with Paris Saint-Germain on personal treatment. ”
Florentino is not surprised that Inter Milan want to sell Yaya Toure, because the current financial situation of the Nerazzurri is not very ideal, mainly because the Moratti family has been in a difficult situation for several years, and the Nerazzurri are preparing to build a new stadium, so it is not news to sell Yaya Toure in exchange for a sum of money to complete the construction of the new stadium.
"Why did Yaya Toure leave the Champions League and go to Ligue 1?" Florentino was puzzled.
Sanchez shook his head, saying that he didn't know anything about it, after all, no one knew what Yaya Toure was thinking, "However, I vaguely received information that Gao Han called him, and he agreed on the spot. ”
"Cold?" Florentino frowned.
After a long time, the president of Real Madrid sighed heavily, "I didn't expect him to really go to Paris Saint-Germain." ”
This is not good news for all the European giants.
The Qatari consortium has shocking financial resources, combined with Gao Han's amazing buying vision, and excellent coaching results, I believe that in less than two years, Paris Saint-Germain will definitely be another Manchester City, and at that time, the situation of this group of giant teams in Europe will not be even more worrying?
Real Madrid's results in recent years have not been ideal, and they have always been pressed under Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, and Florentino's previous promise of heavy reinforcements has never been fulfilled, which has caused a lot of repercussions within Real Madrid.
This summer, his planned superstar signings failed to materialise, with Thiago Silva and Yaya Toure both leaving for Paris Saint-Germain, leaving Florentino in an awkward position.
"Angel. "You should understand that both the board of directors and the sponsors are watching us over there, and if we can't bring in another superstar this summer, I'm sure you will know what the outcome will be." ”
Sanchez nodded in understanding.
The chairman may not step down because of this, but someone will definitely be held accountable for it, and even if he is not fired, he will probably have to leave the newly promoted position of CEO to barely calm the anger of fans and members.
With more power comes great obligation, and the more power Jose Mourinho has, the more games he has to help the team win, and he, as the CEO, is all about helping the team make money and run superstar transfers.
"There aren't many top superstars in Europe now, and they're basically not for sale, and it's hard to dig them if they want to. Sanchez was embarrassed.
Why didn't Florentino know?
"Then dig up the younger ones with potential, as long as the value goes up, they will become superstars even if they are not superstars. ”
Real Madrid is a membership-based club, and the most desirable result in terms of finances is that it is not profitable, so the first phase of Florentino's Galaxy Battleship, with the increase in income, has to invest a large amount of money every year to operate superstar transfers, and in the Calderón period, the club's income has plummeted, but there is no need to worry about spending profits.
But in recent years, after Florentino returned to the helm of Real Madrid, the income has increased again, and Real Madrid has begun to have a headache about how to spend the profits, so the best way is to smash the superstar.
"Neymar of Santos in Brazil, it's him, at all costs!" Florentino said fiercely.
It was said that Barcelona had offered Neymar another price, and Santos gave 40 million euros, but I believe that it should be increased now, but no matter how high the price is, Real Madrid is willing to smash it.
After hearing this, Sanchez couldn't help but feel a little excited, if this is a successful operation, it is likely to be a sky-high transfer that will set a record for the summer transfer king.
But just when the general manager of Real Madrid was full of ambition, a phone call came directly to his mobile phone, and as soon as it was connected, he was shocked and shouted: "What? How can this be?"
