The president of Manchester City and the former president of Real Madrid, sitting together talking about Newcastle United's players, it sounds weird, replacing a player, Mubarak and Florentino can't talk about it, it is different when it comes to Zhen Shaolong, the introduction of Zhen Shaolong involves too much money, and the key two of them are tacit.

Florentino put it bluntly, "We can work together and share the risk." ”

If Zhen Shaolong can maintain a good condition for four or five years, let alone 300 million euros, even if the price is more outrageous, clubs with capital will also make a move, because Zhen Shaolong's influence is huge, and the income brought is very expensive.

For example, Newcastle United, if they win the Premier League championship, they will receive tens of millions of pounds more in prize money every year, and they will also get tens of millions of pounds more for TV rights.

That's 20 million pounds.

If you add in the benefits of a good result in the Champions League, Newcastle United's good results can easily bring in 30 or 40 million pounds, or even more.

In addition, Zhen Shaolong's huge influence will bring huge commercial benefits, even if the portrait rights are not considered, the club only relies on his fame to operate, and the income will increase a lot, in this regard, clubs with a high degree of commercial expansion, such as Real Madrid, can get a higher income.

In addition, the club's attention will also increase significantly, which will certainly be very good for future development.

Therefore, with a transfer fee of 300 million euros, it will not be too much of a loss to sign Zhen Shaolong.

Herein lies the problem.

Now Zhen Shaolong's performance is very good, who can be sure that his good form can continue, for example, the transfer to Real Madrid, in the new team atmosphere, whether he can integrate as soon as possible and play in the ideal state, it will be an uncertain question.

What if not?

That would be a huge loss that you can't afford to lose.

In the face of such a major deal, any club will think about it, Real Madrid will think about it, and Manchester City will think about it too.

Mubarak thought for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Cooperation, of course, there is no problem, the key is how to cooperate?" Of course I hope he becomes a Manchester City player next season, and I'm sure you too. ”

"No, he has to be a Real Madrid player first."

Mubarak frowned.

Florentino said seriously, "Because Real Madrid needs him more than you, and it is good for you for him to leave the Premier League." ”

"I can't accept it." Mubarak said, "It doesn't matter if he leaves the Premier League or not, and I want him to join Manchester City, in fact, we have plenty of money in place, but we haven't started talking yet. ”

Florentino chuckled unconcernedly, "You won't talk about it, Ashley is a black-hearted businessman, but I have to say, he is very successful." ”

Mubarak was silent for a while, then took a deep breath and said, "Indeed, as you said, Ashley is very difficult to entangle. But it is too early to tell whether City will succeed. If we want to work together, it has to be that he's going to be a Manchester City player next season, so I'm sorry, Mr Perez. ”

"It's okay."

"But we can still be friends, right?" Mubarak asked.

"Of course."

Florentino smiled generously, and the content of the next conversation between the two became questions about the club's management, most of which were asked by Mubarak, Florentino was answering, and the conversation between the two was also very close.

Mubarak had great respect for Florentino.

Although the two seem to be inseparable, Florentino is very successful in running Real Madrid, and has rich experience in publicity and business development, Mubarak has just taken over the chairmanship, everything has just begun, and Florentino has a lot of things he needs to learn.

The conversation between the two lasted for nearly two and disappeared, until Florentino looked at the time and said that he was going to catch a plane, that Mubarak had some regret and sent an assistant to take Florentino to the airport.

Florentino left.

There is almost no progress on the transfer of Zhen Shaolong, but he feels that there has been a start.

Although there are 'basic' differences with Mubarak, as long as there are negotiations, there will definitely be differences, otherwise there will be no negotiations, and the two clubs will definitely hope that Zhen Shaolong will transfer to join next season, and no one wants to wait for an uncertain future.

But as long as there are acceptable conditions, the differences can be resolved, and he believes that the negotiations have only begun and are far from over.

Newcastle United didn't have time to sum up the league after drawing with Manchester City, and then went on to play two games in a row.

In the first game, the home game against Sunderland, the final score was 2-1, and when Zhen Shaolong did not play, Newcastle United won pizza with some difficulty.

In the second game, away to West Bromwich Albion, Zhen Shaolong played 60 minutes and helped Newcastle United score two goals, and the final score was 4-0, Newcastle United rarely did not concede a goal.

This is also where the media praised after the game.

The score is second.

Zhen Shaolong scored two goals individually, a total of four goals is not much, the key is that Newcastle United did a good job of defense, West Bromwich Albion did not form a direct threat throughout the game, and the goal looked very solid.

The Guardian pointed out that "the title race is hotter this season, and Newcastle must pay attention to defense if they want to successfully defend their title." Their defence is a big problem, and it is not enough to beat their rivals, even if they win all the key battles and drop points on other clubs, they still can't win the league title. ”

The race for the Premier League this season has been a bit ferocious.

Newcastle United only drew one game, and were caught up by Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United behind them by two points, all three teams are constantly winning, Chelsea's performance is slightly worse, they were beaten by Manchester United, consecutive wins are narrowly won.

Liverpool are doing very well, they have been winning all the time, and very solid ones, scoring thirteen goals in the last four games and conceding just one, including in the high-profile Liverpool derby.

"Liverpool are focused on the league and their goal is to compete for the title!" According to The Sun, "Rafael Benitez's Liverpool have played very solidly, finishing fifth in the league last season and failing to qualify for the Champions League. Maybe not being able to play in the Champions League is also an opportunity, and they can take the league in stride and try to win the league they want. ”

Manchester United's performance can be described as insane, they have not even drawn a single draw since December, won all the league games, and have risen rapidly with this point, and are only one point away from Chelsea.

Newcastle United have a record of 18 wins, 5 draws and 2 defeats with 59 points, Liverpool are second with 58 points, Chelsea are third with 57 points, and Manchester United are fourth with 56 points.

Then there are Arsenal's 47 points.

Just look at the points of the top few places in the Premier League to know how fierce the title race is.

At this critical moment, a draw is unacceptable.

Kevin Keegan's judgment on the league situation is, "Our most important opponents are Manchester United and Liverpool, and in the next league with Manchester United and Liverpool, we must beat them head-on, and Wen must seize every point, even a draw is unacceptable!" ”

He looked at Zhen Shaolong.

If you want to win the game safely, you must let Zhen Shaolong play, and Keegan also emphasized that the assistant coach, physical fitness coach, and team doctor should pay special attention to Zhen Shaolong's physical condition, and even pay attention to the situation every day.

Zhen Shaolong is too important.

Right away.

Newcastle United ushered in the second leg of the Carabao Cup with Manchester United, the game was played at St James' Park, the players could relax and wait for the game to start, and their mentality was not bad, 3-4 in the first leg, they had four away goals, a goal advantage.

United will have to open a two-goal gap if they want to win.

Kevin Keegan's emphasis is still on defense, and the players are also training in front of the defense, while Zhen Shaolong is doing special training alone, and he asked Barton to cooperate with him and do some break-related drills.

This match, he intends to end quickly.

Don't be suspenseful!

The pressure of the task is too depressing, and being able to lock in and complete the task in advance will make the whole person relax.

If you want to finish quickly, you have to score more goals quickly.

With the experience of the previous round, he kept thinking about the combination of "Bounce Breakout" and his own skills, hoping that in the game, he could play an effect to quickly end the suspense. 8)
