When Dick walked out of the local airport in Dortmund, he felt a little embarrassed.

It has been four years since he left the position of manager of Dortmund, and in these four years, he has achieved a lot of results, winning four league titles and two Champions Cups, which is enough to make him the best manager in the world.

"Dick, welcome to Dortmund!"

When he saw Dick, Dortmund's manager Zorke strode up to him and gave Dick a hug.

Dick smiled and hugged him as well, then let go of his hand: "Long time no see...... I heard that Dortmund is now completely debt-free, which is really good news! ”

"Yes, that's also thanks to you, although the results have not been good in the past few years, the finances have been very good, and that is also because you have laid a good foundation before, and it has been more convenient for us to solve the financial problems...... Now that our finances have improved, it's time to make our grades better! ”

Dick smiled silently, Dortmund's strength has indeed declined a lot in recent years, and it has only been able to float up and down in the area of the League Cup, and it has not been able to achieve any good results in the League Cup, that is also because there are some achievements will sell people to supplement the finances, and at the same time, the salary to the players has not been very high. Now it's almost time to come to fruition, and the next revival of Dortmund is not too surprising.

"Anyway, you're here, you have to get together, and Mr. Chairman is glad you to come." Zolke smiled and told Dick that Watzke had done a very good job in recent years and was considered a key figure in Dortmund's revival.

"That's what I mean, too." Dick laughed.

Of course, Dortmund knows that Dick is coming to Dortmund now, most of them are here to poach people, which is not an unusual thing, Dortmund has now sold a lot of people, and Dick's main force when he was there was almost all sold, but there is one person who is the hottest in the transfer market now.

That is Brazilian full-back Daniel Alves.

This fullback, who is more like a winger, remained at Dortmund after Dick left, he is also a very ambitious player, the general team comes to him, he is reluctant to leave, so he has been in Dortmund for four years, and at the age of twenty-five, he has also played in Dortmund for five years, his sharp breakthrough and offensive ability have long been well-known, and after helping Dortmund win the League Cup last season, his reputation has also begun to reach its peak, although his position in the national team is not yet secure, is already a regular visitor to the national team, and in such a situation, Dortmund is obviously unable to keep him.

"Alves?"

At the banquet, Watzke was slightly stunned when he heard Dick mention his intentions.

"What, what's the problem? To be honest, I've been paying attention to Dortmund in the past few years, Alves has indeed performed very well, but now Piszczek has also grown up, he is two years younger than Alves, he has been playing at right back for the past two years, and let Alves play right midfielder, even if Alves leaves, you are not without an alternative, not to mention that I am not here to pick up a cheap ...... My current owner is very rich, and I will definitely not let you feel at a loss in terms of price. Dick was stunned for a moment, then said to Watzke.

Watzke immediately shook his head: "No, not for this reason...... Dortmund has sold a lot of players, and I don't care about selling one more, not to mention the good situation that Dortmund has now, you have to take at least half of the credit, and you didn't dig our corner after you left Dortmund, how can we meet your request, it's just ......"

"Because Barcelona also wants to buy Alves?" Dick shook the glass in his hand and smiled.

"Uh, you got it?" Watzke was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Yes, you should know, there are not so many secrets in this circle. ”

"Yes, I see." Dick laughed: "Pep Guardiola has entered Barcelona, Barcelona has now begun to clean and bring in reinforcements, the right-back position is also a place they need to add, Alves is one of the best and easy to poach right-backs in recent years, Barcelona wants to poach Alves, how can I not know this news." ”

"Now that you know, I'm not going to beat around the bush." "Just two days ago, Barcelona had made an offer of 20 million euros to bring in Alves, and Alves himself expressed his desire to play in a stronger team, he has been with us for six years and we are not going to put more obstacles in the way of his departure...... Of course, 20 million euros is not enough, we are still negotiating, if Manchester City's offer is not enough, we can't agree to your request, after all, Dortmund is the club's situation, and the financial aspect has to be agreed by all shareholders, which is ...... It's business, after all. ”

Watzke was very sincere, and from his personal point of view, of course, he was willing to sell people to Dick, but if Dick's offer was not as good as Barcelona's, then it would be very difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

"Of course I won't force you to do this...... Dick laughed: "Don't worry, financially, we will definitely win against Barcelona, and Alves is definitely worth more than 20 million euros." Now the Premier League is about 10 to 13, 20 million pounds, and this is our first offer, which is about 26 million euros, and I think if we have an advantage in terms of price, you would want to agree to our offer. ”

The big three of Dortmund management swallowed their saliva at the same time, Dick is really different now, you must know that although it is difficult to find excellent fullbacks in Europe now, but Barcelona's price of 20 million euros is already quite high, Dick suddenly increased to 26 million euros, such a price has broken the record of fullback transfer, the highest record of full-back before is Zambrotta's transfer to Barcelona 14 million euros, if Thuram is considered a right-back, Then the highest value belongs to Thuram, whose transfer from Atletico Madrid to Juventus is worth 30 million euros.

Now Dick's first offer has been close to this number, although Dortmund has sold a lot of people in recent years, but has never sold such a high price, which is also related to Dortmund's recent poor results, selling people are mainly concentrated in China, the Bundesliga team has always been more pragmatic, millions of euros is already a relatively large amount, so Dortmund has actually not made any money in the transfer market in recent years.

"If Barcelona raise their offers...... Watzke asked tentatively, "You know, for a club, such an opportunity is rare...... Dirk you should also know what a rare opportunity it is for a club to have two teams with deep pockets inflating each other's prices. ”

Dick didn't get angry, but patted his pocket with a smile: "Don't be too conservative, Mr. Watzke...... Know I have £200 million at my disposal this summer! As long as Barcelona raises the price, I will raise it with them to the end! Don't worry, I won't let Dortmund suffer, at least in the past six years of training, you have also paid a lot, and I will let you get enough rewards. ”

Looking at Dick's laughter, Watzke was relieved, it was not good for his own business and private affairs to be mixed together, but Dick's status had to make them take this aspect into account more, Dick's attitude at this time was a good thing for everyone, after all, if it was discussed like this, many things would be much more convenient.

Next, the guests and hosts will enjoy themselves and get drunk.

After returning to the hotel, Dick lay on the bed and thought for a while, he knew that it was not so easy, 26 million euros seems like a lot, but you must know that Alves transferred to Barcelona in history, and the value is close to 36 million euros! Even if it is placed in the entire defender transfer list, it can be in the top three - of course, at this time, such a price is enough to prove Barcelona's strong need to get this top full-back, and it is also related to Guardiola's tactical thinking, a top assist-type full-back has a great role in Barcelona's future tactics.

This is also the biggest reason why Dick wants to win Alves, he even has the idea of sacrificing Deco, if Barcelona has not signed a contract with Manchester City for Deco's transfer at that time, and use this to threaten, even if it is to give up Deco, Dick has to find a way to let Alves join his team, it is a big deal to smash Alonso with a big price, and it is a big deal to dig Shahin......

This season Manchester City wants to win the Champions Cup, Barcelona is definitely the biggest opponent, Dick knows that this season's Barcelona won the treble directly under the command of Guardiola, in the face of such a top team, in the transfer market before the start of the season can weaken their strength, while enhancing their own strength, this is an opportunity Dick will not let go!

Even if it is compared to financial resources, he will not be bad, compared to the attraction of Alves, he is the mentor who brought Alves out of Brazil, and in the second year of Dortmund, he also gave Alves enough opportunities to grow up quickly, Manchester City can now play the Champions Cup, and also have the opportunity to impact the most honors, and can also provide Alves with enough salary, not to mention Dick, the golden sign of grabbing the championship, Dick is not afraid of Barcelona in all aspects, so if he can't rob Barcelona, then it's really hell!

And Manchester City only need to fill in the gaps this summer, he can throw more money on one or two players, but what about Barcelona? They have rebuilt this season, Ronaldo has been sold, there are a lot of places to spend money, and they really compare their financial resources with Manchester City, even if they are membership, they can't compare, and beat Barcelona in the transfer market, Dick has enough self-confidence at this time.

"It just depends on how the transfer goes...... If Alves comes, my tactical thinking can basically be perfected...... This season, I have to win the Champions Cup, so that it will be very close to my goal......"
