Paulo Futre, as a famous player in Porto, still has a lot of connections and channels in Portuguese football, so it is often easy for them to get some insider information that is difficult for outsiders to know. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

And when he suddenly asked like this, it would definitely not be untargeted, so Gao Han naturally cared.

'As far as I know, Mourinho has a clause in his contract extension with Porto. ”

"Huh?"

"Yes, the purpose of the clause is that Mourinho will be able to terminate his contract early without paying Porto liquidated damages if he has an offer from a top-four team in the Premier League for two years. ”

Paul Futrey said this, his eyes were already fixed on Gao Han, and he felt that what he meant was obvious enough.

There are not many teams in the top four of the Premier League, Manchester United and Arsenal always occupy one of them, Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea compete for the other two places, but from last season, everyone can see that Chelsea are already the strongest contenders for the Premier League title, and the remaining one is most likely Liverpool.

The positions of Ferguson and Wenger can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai, and it is basically impossible to change the coach in two years.

Liverpool have decided to replace Houllier and are currently looking for a manager, but if it is the Reds, then how can Mourinho renew his contract with Porto and ask for such a clause?

He could have just not renewed his contract and switched to Liverpool, wouldn't that be more convenient?

It can be seen that the possibility of Liverpool is also very small.

Then the rest of the options are simple, there is only one Chelsea!

From Mourinho's contract renewal with Porto and his request for such a clause, it is not difficult to see that he must have obtained some kind of commitment from some people, so he will add such a clause to the contract.

As for who and which promises, that is already very obvious.

Gao Han's mind changed quickly, but on the surface, he was still calm and calm, "Paul, is your news reliable?"

"It's true. Paul Futrey replied in the affirmative.

Gao Han nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Then I know, thank you for telling me." ”

The Portuguese also immediately understood in their hearts that Gao Han must have his own plans.

Today's Gao Han is no longer the Gao Han when he was a fledgling back then, and he is already the leading coach in Europe.

With his coaching results at Chelsea this season, I am afraid that even Abramovich may not dare to easily move the idea of changing the coach, and the reason why he has such an agreement with Mourinho is probably to prepare a spare tire for the team, otherwise, once the matter is revealed, Chelsea will become a team that all managers in Europe avoid and fear.

And the Blues fans are definitely the first to quit!

Gao Han is well aware of his situation at Chelsea and he also knows what Roman Abramovich is.

From the first time he met Abramovich, his keen eye told him that the Russian was ambitious, impatient, possessive, and that he had not come to the Premier League just for football, but for safe haven and that professional football would be a stepping stone to British high society.

It can be said that from the first time the two met, the differences were very obvious.

At that time, Abramovich's question was whether Gao Han could build a team similar to Real Madrid in the Premier League, where every position was the world's top superstar, and Gao Han's reply was that it was not in line with his own philosophy.

He pursues the whole, which is destined to run counter to Real Madrid's superstar strategy.

Moreover, it is not difficult to see from the situation of Real Madrid this season that the superstar strategy of the Galaxy has been exposed.

As more and more superstars join the team, the question of who is the core has become the biggest question.

How to win on the pitch, how to beat the opponent, on the contrary, is insignificant.

This is why many Spanish media commentaries say that the most important task of the Real Madrid manager is not football, but to manage the dressing room.

But what Gao Han is pursuing is that everyone in the team revolves around him.

It's not that he can't afford a superstar, if the superstar can be used by him.

As Alex Ferguson said, when a manager loses authority in the dressing room, he is undoubtedly putting himself on a precipice, and he can fall to pieces at any time.

Gao Han would never do such a stupid thing.

It is precisely because the differences are clear from the beginning that Gao Han has always been relatively controlled.

When the team won the championship, Abramovich was left aside by the media, Gao Han saw his uncertain expression, and immediately came forward to solve his dilemma; Later, it was rumored that Abramovich had a private meeting with Jose Vega, and was photographed by the Sun, Gao Han did not take advantage of the topic, but took the initiative to return the transfer rights.

It can be said that for the sake of the stability of the team, Gao Han has made concessions.

But unexpectedly, he seems to be less and less satisfied with the status quo.

Perhaps, he really thinks that with the money, everyone in the team has to revolve around him, and they all have to obey his orders.

Thinking of this, Gao Han immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call to Jorge Mendes.

Lin Xia, who was driving in the driver's seat, also noticed the change in Gao Han's expression and realized the seriousness of the matter.

London, England, Guardian editorial office.

Greene Wald came to the editor-in-chief's office.

As soon as he entered the door, before his ass was firmly seated, the editor-in-chief opposite threw out a few photos.

As a long-time Guardian journalist who has followed Chelsea, Green Wald recognises the man in the photo at first sight.

Abramovich's most trusted agent, Pini Zahavi, and the Russian's close aide Marina Granovskia, but it was the other two that surprised Greene Wald.

Arsenal left-back Ashley Cole and his agent Jonathan Barnett.

"It was captured by a reporter we were following from the front, at the Royal Park Hotel, the day before the national team training camp. ”

Greenwald was slightly moved, and the time and place were so clear that it was clear that the material was genuine.

But Chelsea's top management has a private meeting with Arsenal's left-back and agent, what is this?

'On top of that, we have received very reliable information that Arsenal are taking a closer look at Chelsea's offer, which has made a closed view of the possibility of a transfer for Ashley Cole. ”

Greene Wald shook his head and said, "Wenger won't say yes. ”

Everyone knows that Arsenal's sharpest attack is on the left side, and Thierry, Pire and Ashley Cole are the key players in this left attack, how could Arsene Wenger cut off his arm and sell Ashley Cole?

Unexpectedly, the editor-in-chief sitting opposite smiled inscrutablely, "No, you are wrong, Wenger is said to be tempted." ”

"What?" said Greenwald, taken aback, "how is that possible?"

Arsene Wenger's brain isn't broken, would he do such a stupid thing?

'I've heard that the chips Chelsea put forward are Gallas plus Van Persie plus Fabregas, three for one. ”

"What?" said Greene Wald, jumping from his seat in shock, "this...... It's absolutely impossible!"

After a pause, he still shook his head, "Gao Han will never agree to this transfer, and according to the exact information I have from him, he does want to bring in a left-back, but not Ashley Cole, and he has not thought of sending away Gallas, Van Persie and Cesc Fabregas, all three players are in his plans." ”

Although Green Wald was reprimanded by Gao Han at the post-match press conference before, and I refused to answer your question, which embarrassed the Guardian reporter, his friendship with Gao Han is still good.

Of course, there is no contact in private, they are all official exchanges, but in the end, they have cooperated for a year, and they have a good relationship with each other.

Greene Wald also vaguely knew something about Gao Han's plan, but it was certainly not what he saw in front of him.

Unless......

Looking at the editor-in-chief's unfathomable eyes, Greene Wald felt a chill all over his body.

His foreboding had guessed right.

In the past period, Chelsea's management has made frequent interventions, and Roman Abramovich has begun to report repeatedly, and many of them have been arranged on their own initiative, which has already revealed a clear signal.

That is the restlessness of management.

In the Premier League, many people only pay attention to Manchester United's Alex Ferguson and Arsenal's Arsene Wenger, but they don't notice that both teams in the Premier League belong to the more modern management of the team, especially Manchester United.

But behind these two teams, there are also some restless behind-the-scenes bosses in the Premier League, such as Liverpool chairman Rick Barry, former Leeds United chairman Lizdale, former Chelsea chairman Bates and Newcastle chairman Shepard, etc., and even to some extent, the owner's decision-making system is the mainstream of the Premier League, even in some listed clubs.

The most famous of these is former Chelsea chairman Bates, as evidenced by his nickname Vulture.

As for David Dunn, the vice-chairman of Arsenal who is admired by many people, the reputation in the circle is not very good, and many people feel that he is forced to maneuver between the major shareholders because of his lack of financial resources, and strongly support Wenger, otherwise, he will do more ruthlessly than anyone else.

The purpose of these behind-the-scenes bosses running the team is not the same, but one thing is clear: all the players and managers are like pawns in their hands, and many of them enjoy the monopoly of power, the scolding of the team, the success of the team, and the pride of the fans.

And the team run by such an owner will not have Ferguson and Arsene Wenger.

It should be said that it is not allowed by any means.

Now it seems that Chelsea have signs of doing so.

"I also got a message, Green. The editor-in-chief was silent for a moment, allowing Greene Wald to digest the shock in his heart before continuing, but there was a faint posture that was not shocking.

Greene Wald's heart jumped.

"Chelsea have almost agreed to negotiate Crespo, with the transfer fee expected to exceed €25 million. ”

"What?" said Greene Wald, again in surprise.

His first reaction was that the rumors from the outside world were true.

The Sun newspaper broke the news before that Chelsea was very close to Shevchenko, and the Ukrainian nuclear warheads were also very interested in Chelsea, but due to the retention of AC Milan, Shevchenko decided to stay, and the Blues switched to Crespo.

"Why Crespo when Ibrahimovic and Eto'o are already there?" asked Green Wald, puzzled.

Is it just because Ibrahimovic and Samuel Eto'o aren't big enough?

But if Crespo comes, and there is still a long-term Shevchenko pursued by Abramovich, then what will Ibrahimovic and Eto'o do?

These two tiger generals are Gao Han's favorite generals, does Gao Han know about such a transfer transaction?

At the thought of this, Greene Wald's whole body was creepy.
