After the arrival of Neymar, the Argentine "commander" Cambiasso, who has played for Blackburn for 13 seasons, chose to separate.

On the evening of June 29, Guangzhou Evergrande Club officially announced the official signing of Blackburn Rovers defender and Argentine international Esteban Cambiasso for a transfer fee of 10 million pounds and a three-year contract. Cambiaso, who is about to turn 33, will wear the number 24 shirt in the second half of the season and will fly directly to Guangzhou to join the team around July 2 after passing the medical examination, where the club will hold a meeting with the new signings.

Cambiaso's choice to leave the team, in addition to the 8 million euros annual salary provided by Evergrande, was also a big reason why he gradually became an absolute substitute for the team at Blackburn Rovers last season.

Blackburn's absolute mainstay at the back has always belonged to Marcos Alonso, and Cambiaso's time has been significantly cut after the arrivals of Paul Pogba and Casemiro last summer. In order to be able to play more minutes and not want to retire at Blackburn, Cambiaso chose the Chinese Super League.

However, in Evergrande, Cambiaso will not feel lonely, because Evergrande's main center is officially his veteran Drogba. Cambiaso also became the third Blackburn Rovers player to switch to the Chinese Super League after Drogba and Owen.

After Cambiaso, another veteran who has been with Blackburn Rovers for more than 10 years has chosen to leave.

Back in the penultimate round of last season's league, Ashley Cole admitted that he would not be staying at the Rose Theatre next season, and he was looking for his next journey after 11 years at Blackburn.

Ashley Kerr revealed: "I'll talk to my agent about my goals for next season and it's a shame Blackburn isn't among them."

Ashley Cole moved to Blackburn Rovers from Arsenal in 2002 and quickly became a first-choice left-back, becoming Blackburn's left-sided striker for ten seasons.

However, last season, Ashley Kerr lost his place in the main team due to competition with Baines, and the soon-to-be-33-year-old is no longer in Blackburn's long-term plans for the future.

Ashley Cole said: "I'm looking for the next journey in my life. I hope it's been as much fun as it has been in the past, and of course it's great to win the title. ”

Ashley Cole's contract was originally due to expire in July 2014, leaving only one year to go. As things stand, it was difficult for Blackburn to renew his contract, so he applied for a transfer.

"Thank you Blackburn for the joy you have given me over the past 11 years. We have gone through a lot of pain and joy together. "And, of course, the fans, you have nothing but thank me for the huge support you gave the lads to win a fantastic trophy."

"Those fans who accompany me no matter the rain or rainbow, you will always be in my heart."

Arthur did not make it difficult for the veteran who dedicated all his youth to the team, and even in order to give Ashley Cole a more lucrative contract, Arthur took the initiative to reduce the transfer period to a symbolic 30,000 pounds to commemorate Ashley Cole's No. 3 shirt when he played for Blackburn.

In the end, Ashley Cole opted for traditional Serie A powerhouse Roma and are not far away from signing the former Blackburn full-back as Roma confirm Ashley Cole's arrival at the airport.

The official Rome Twitter account then posted the photo with the text in English and Italian: "Welcome to Rome, Ashley! Then Cole's Twitter.

Ashley Cole has signed a 2+1 year contract with Roma with an annual salary of £3 million, which is not a high annual salary, but it can continue Cole's ambitions to participate in next year's World Cup.

Compared to the voluntary departures of Cambiasso and Ashley Cole, Blackburn's other full-back, Darmian, was a little more passive.

With the departure of Carlo Ancelotti this summer, Italian full-back Darmian is obviously in a much more difficult situation, compared to the same position of Branislav Ivanovic and Azpilicueta, Darmian has no advantage at all, and at only 23 years old, he has no pension capital, so transfer is his only way out.

However, the good news is that Darmian is still young, he has grown up quickly at Blackburn Rovers, and there is no shortage of next home in the Premier League and Serie A.

Just a week after Blackburn put Darmian on the list, Darmian has already confirmed his future new club Torino officially announced on the official website that Blackburn Rovers right-back Darmian has been successfully introduced.

Torino paid £12 million for a transfer fee of £20 million, followed by a floating clause of £2 million depending on their performance.

Maybe Blackburn Rovers could go up by £180,000 in a week or two, but Arthur didn't like the small money, and at Darmian's request, he let the latter leave as soon as possible, so that he could have more time to participate in pre-season training in Turin.

The departure of Ashley Cole has left Blackburn a little thin at left-back, and while Cesar Azpilicueta can play at left-back, there are still concerns when injuries strike.

In Arthur's view, the new left-back signings do not need to have particularly strong strength, because the current main left-back of the team is currently the Premier League's leading Baines, and no matter how strong the new signings are, they can only be substitutes, and it is best to be a young demon, so that after two or three years of Bairns' state decline, it can be seamless.

According to Arthur's idea, Monchi has his eye on Tottenham Hotspur's youngster Danny Rose.

Born in 1990, Danny Rose is considered a talented player by numerous coaches as a regular in England's youth teams, joining Tottenham from Leeds United in 2007 and spending the 2012/13 season on loan at Sunderland, where he was named Sunderland's Young Player of the Season. However, it is difficult for Rose to be a first-team regular for Blackburn at the moment, and is only suitable for the FA Cup and league games against underdogs.

However, for Blackburn, this will be fine, after all, if Baines is out of form or unavailable, Blackburn's first choice at left-back is Cesar Azpilicueta, and it is not the turn of the current Danny Rose.

On July 27, Blackburn Rovers officially announced the introduction of Danny Rose for a transfer fee of 5 million pounds, which is a relatively good price.

However, Danny Rose can't support Blackburn's left-back rotation in the new season, and Azpilicueta is bound to appear more on the left, so Blackburn's right-back position will be a little thin again.

However, the current Blackburn Rovers are no longer the lame team that can only rely on reinforcements to relieve the pressure on the team's squad in the past few seasons, and Arthur is ready to adjust the reserve team of Bellerin and John Stones to the first team in the new season.

Bellerin is Arsenal's main right-back in the future, and has the reputation of being the first right-back in the future, while Stones is mainly a central defender, but he can also play at right-back, and the two youngsters under the age of 20 will be able to grow up as soon as possible by Ivanovic's side.

The "promotion" of two reserve team youngsters, and the departure of two Blackburn veterans from the academy.

From long hair to gray temples, as time passed, it was finally time to say goodbye to Blackburn's most glorious captain in history, Damian Duff, the most glorious captain in Blackburn's history.

As the only player to remain at Blackburn Rovers before Arthur joined Blackburn, Duff, who played for Blackburn's first team for 18 years, is the leader of Blackburn's rise. Although he is no longer in the peak form of the past, his every move still attracts the attention of Blackburn fans.

Now, Irishman Duff, who only had two league starts last season, has chosen to leave the club on a free basis to continue his career in the Australian Super League.

According to the Daily Mail, the 34-year-old has signed a two-year contract with the Australian Super League team Melbourne City. The 13-year Premier League veteran, who has followed Blackburn's numerous tribulations, has chosen the AFL as his next stop. The Irishman made 13 appearances for Blackburn Rovers last season and did not score a single goal, not unlike his 48 appearances and 16 goals in Blackburn's 04-05 peak season. Australian teams are eyeing him more than anything more for his experience in major tournaments.

Duff's departure is entirely due to his ambitions for next year's World Cup, although Arthur has already offered Duff a new four-year contract with an annual salary of more than £4 million, when Duff will be 38 years old, which can be described as a lifetime contract, but Duff chose to refuse.

Duff knows the only role he can play at Blackburn Rovers at the moment is to crush discord in the dressing room as captain, but even that, vice-president Frank Lampard has done a much better job than him.

After Arthur personally refused to no avail, Duff also rejected the suggestion of going to the Chinese Super League to retire, after all, in his opinion, if he went to the Chinese Super League, he might not be able to represent Ireland in next year's World Cup.

10 years ago, Blackburn, Duff on the left, Robben on the right, once killed all sides in the Premier League, and now ten years have passed like a white horse, and the wings of the Blue Devils are now at the end of their careers.

One went to the Australian Super League, the other is still fighting in the Bundesliga, and the old boy legend who once galloped on the side with Ronaldo and Lampard, has not yet come to an end.

Duff chose to leave for Australia, but his Blackburn Academy team-mate Martin Taylor, who was the same year as him, officially retired from the game, ending his 14-year Blackburn Rovers playing career.

Born on 9 November 1979 in the North East of England, Martin Taylor signed his first professional contract with Blackburn Rovers in the 1997-98 season at the age of 17. However, he did not get an immediate chance to play at Blackburn Rovers and was loaned out to the lower divisions of Darlington and Stoke Harbour. His consistent performances helped him return to Ewood Park, and at the time he was a substitute for Blackburn captain John Terry in England's youth team and Mexico's youth team.

Martin Taylor, who was known as the "Executioner" if it weren't for the deadly savage tackle that cost Croatian Eda Silva his left leg and was dubbed the "Executioner".

But in this life, although he has always been a substitute for people such as Stam, Carvalho, Cannavaro, Vidic, Kompany, Thiago Silva, etc., he is one of the defenders who have won the most titles in England history, and Blackburn has been on the front line for every glory over the years.

Even in terms of the number of championships alone, Messi and Ronaldo are far inferior to the unknown Martin Taylor.

Martin Taylor has not left Blackburn Rovers after retiring, although he is no longer a member of Blackburn's first team in the new season, but he will return to the academy and start as the main coach of the development team, and continue to contribute to Blackburn.

Martin Taylor chose to retire at the age of 34, while Friedel, who is already 42 years old, is still in high spirits. But a year after a one-year contract extension with Friedel, Butlander was embarrassed.

As Birmingham's No. 1 goalkeeper last season, Butland was not willing to be the team's No. 2 goalkeeper, but Arthur and Blackburn did not want to lose Butland completely.

In the end, after negotiations between the two parties, Butland officially switched to Birmingham, Blackburn will get a transfer fee of 8 million pounds, compared to Butland's excellent performance in helping Birmingham last season's thrill insurance, the transfer fee of 8 million pounds is absolutely cheap, but will the shrewd Blackburn do such a stupid thing again?

In addition to the £8 million transfer fee, Blackburn's deal with Birmingham City has an add-on clause: Blackburn have the right to bring Buttland back to the Rose Theatre for a £12 million transfer fee over the next five years.

Five years later, Cech is 36 years old and Butland's is 25, making the perfect transition.

Even before the official announcement, Butland had already said goodbye to his team-mates on Twitter, parting with the likes of Frank Lampard, Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling and Deli Alli of the youth team, sending them blessings and thanks, and encouraging his former team-mates to continue to work hard.

In addition, he tweeted about Blackburn Rovers and wrote: "I hope to make you proud. Blackburn's official Twitter retweeted his message afterwards.

Even if he chooses to leave the team and officially join Birmingham, but from the above actions, everyone can see that Butland is only in Cao Ying's heart in Han, once Blackburn needs him, as long as the difference of 4 million pounds, Blackburn can bring the academy youngster home again.

Even Arthur replied directly in an interview: "Of course, because he is a good player with potential. It's important for the club to take control of his talent and hopefully he will come back after a good performance at Birmingham because everyone here loves him. ”
