After getting the contact information of Inter Milan, Dick quickly got in touch with Moratti.

In the phone call, Dick first thanked Moratti for his interest, and then tactfully said that he is happy at Atletico Madrid, and at the same time pointed out what Hill values him now and the authority he has at Atletico Madrid......

Dick was also very satisfied with this chat, and he did not explicitly reject Moratti during the whole chat, but as long as Moratti pondered it, he could know that Dick had actually rejected him.

However, Moratti is still very personable, he expressed his regret for Dick's reluctance to join, and then expressed his hope that he could have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.

Dick also solved a thought, the next is the transfer problem of Stam, in these few days, there are not many clubs that have made offers to Stam, Dick knows that now Manchester United is also in a hurry to sell Stam, so that they can bring in new excellent defenders to prepare for the new season, the sooner the transfer is done, the better the impact on the new season.

In this case, Dick made another offer, raising the transfer fee to $24 million - which once again set a new record for the highest value of a defender set by Thuram when he moved to Atletico Madrid, and said that this will be Atletico's last bid this time, and it will not be higher than this figure.

It was at this time that Lazio, the only one to make a real offer, stuck the price at $23 million and refused to raise it any further, and after weighing the pros and cons, Ferguson agreed to Atletico's offer for Stam.

Because the Premier League started much earlier than La Liga, it was now time for United to start their pre-season training camp – and later Stamm revealed what he had done when he left the club after retiring: "I was going home from training and I got a call from Alex Ferguson in the car and he asked me where I was, and then I parked at a petrol station and he quickly drove over and got into my car and told me I had to transfer. Then he told me: 'Can you move to Atletico quickly?' I agreed, on the spot. A quick conversation in my car at the gas station was enough to get me out of such a big family...... When I think about it now, I find it incredible. ”

After United agreed to Atletico's offer for Stam, Dick soon met the big Dutch defender – who at this point in time is indeed one of the best centre-backs in the world, and Dick laughed when he saw Stam.

"Welcome to Atletico and form the toughest backline in the world with Thuram."

These were the first words Dick said to Stam.

This sentence made Stam feel very happy, he believed in his ability, and also appreciated Thuram's performance in Serie A and La Liga, being able to partner with a central defender like Thuram was also one of the reasons why he decided to join Atletico Madrid - of course, he didn't know that Lazio also wanted to buy him, otherwise it would be really difficult to choose, after all, Lazio is also very strong now, and partnering with Nesta is also something that makes all central defenders happy.

"Regarding your salary and treatment, we will have a dedicated person in charge to negotiate with your agent...... The pay will not be any lower than it was at Manchester United. We're going to be playing in the Champions Cup this season and it's important for us to have a player with a lot of experience because most of our players are very new to the Champions Cup. ”

Dick followed up and Stam nodded: "Since I am willing to join Atletico Madrid, then I will definitely give my strength in the game...... And I'm happy to be able to go to a brand new league and prove what I'm capable of. ”

"I'm glad you can say that...... It's July 20th, and in less than a week, our pre-season training camp will start, and on July 27th, we start training in Madrid, don't be late, and I'm very strict in that regard. Dick laughed.

"Actually, my season has already begun." Stam nodded: "I won't be late, I've been preparing to find a house in Madrid in the past few days." ”

"If something is inconvenient, just go to the club and the club will help you...... There won't be much change in the way we defend this season, with the two centre-backs, you and Thuram going to be the first choice at the back, and the tactical arrangements will be laid out in the pre-season training camp...... Your arrival is a great way to defend our backline, which is the only weakness in our backline. ”

After a few more words to Stam, Dick took his leave and prepared to return to Madrid, where the next thing to do was to choose the wingers.

Of course, Atletico Madrid can't leave a player, Czech international Beybur basically didn't get any opportunities to play in the league last season, and the new season doesn't seem to change much, for the twenty-nine-year-old he has lost his ambition to break in the big league, he is the only player who proposed a transfer to the club, Dick is also happy and generous, anyway, his contract is only one year left, and he can't make any money, so after negotiation, Beybur and Atletico Madrid terminated the contract, He then joined the Czech Slavs Prague on a free transfer, and in his five years at Atletico Madrid, he also won three titles, which was well worth the trip – he joined Atletico from Slavs Prague five years ago.

In the introduction of Atletico Madrid's midfield, some investment is still needed, and after returning to Madrid, Dick discussed with the transfer department for a long time, and finally finalized two candidates.

One is the Danish winger Martin Jorgensen, who plays for Udinese in Serie A, this versatile frontcourt can play two wings, has a balanced ability on both feet, and is in his playing years, it is not easy to bring him in, you must know that he has been in Udinese for four years, basically the main force, the only thing that can attract him is the higher salary than in Udinese and the attraction of being able to play in the Champions Cup......

It's just that it's not too easy to poach people from Udinese - in fact, Udinese is willing to sell people, as long as you are willing to pay - fortunately, Dick is not short of money now, and after paying 12 million transfer fees, Udinese finally relented and agreed to Jorgensen's transfer.

For Jorgensen himself, this call from Atletico Madrid also made him very excited, you must know that he almost transferred to Real Madrid a year ago, but after the European Championship he suffered an injury, which made Real Madrid give up buying him, and this injury also made Udinese's idea of making a lot of money on him frustrated - before the European Cup, Barcelona had paid 12 million dollars to buy Jorgensen, but Udinese refused, because they believed that after the European Cup, Jorgensen's value would make a leap - However, this European Championship is an unbearable past for Jorgensen and Udinese, the reason is simple, Denmark lost all three games in the group stage, Jorgensen was also injured after the European Championship, which made Real Madrid and Barcelona lose interest in Jorgensen at the same time, and the helpless Jorgensen also renewed his contract with Udinese for four years after the European Cup.

For Udinese, who has no one to sell, it is already very satisfying for them to be able to earn 12 million dollars now, after all, Jorgensen is now 26 years old, and as an attacker, in another year or two, his form tends to gradually decline, so it is better to make a move as soon as possible.

And for Jorgensen, who has a dream of a giant, joining Atletico Madrid at this time seems to be enough to make people feel satisfied, after all, Atletico Madrid is now in an upward period, and this season is still going to impact the Champions Cup, joining Atletico Madrid, at least it is much better than staying in Udinese, who can't even play in the League Cup - even as a substitute, Jorgensen still has a lot of confidence in his own strength.

So after negotiations, Jorgensen quickly signed the contract, also for four years, and the 26-year-old Dane, looking forward to the moment of participating in the Champions Cup.

For the signing of Jorgensen, Dick is very satisfied, the Dane is a versatile player, in recent years Denmark has also emerged a lot of outstanding players, in addition to Jorgensen, there are Sander, Laursen, Glen Shial, Romerdal, Thomason, Graveson and a large number of powerful players, but among this group of people, Jorgensen is also the best one, he can play left and right, and at the same time can play shadow striker, in Udinese he often became a versatile player in the frontfield, Running around to create opportunities, even if he can't become the main force after joining Atletico Madrid, but in many cases, his speed, technique and crossing ability will play a huge role, and his versatile characteristics will also make Atletico's bench thickness even better, at least not like last season, a rotation of Vicente and Camoranesi, the wing is basically unavailable.

Stam spent 24 million on him, Jorgensen spent 12 million on him, and this season he was not able to cash out by selling players like last season, basically Dick didn't want to use it, and the players who could cash out were almost sold last season, and the players who could sell it for money this season were all useful players for Dick, so next, Dick had to save a little money.

However, Dick doesn't particularly care about this, after buying Stam and Jorgensen, he has basically replenished the roster, and it would be better to buy another one if there is a suitable player, and he doesn't really care if he doesn't.

In this case, a player who can be regarded as cheap and good quality and can expand the thickness of the bench has come into Dick's eye.

The main force of the Moroccan national team, Mustafa Hadji, who scored an excellent goal in the 98 World Cup, has a deep impression on the guy with the same name as the legendary Bulgarian midfielder, Dick has a deep impression of the 98 World Cup.

But he still has some strength, his speed and technique on the wing are good, he is about to turn 30 years old, he has not won any decent honors, and he has mixed up in a lot of leagues, debuted in Nancy in Ligue 1, then went to Sporting Lisbon in Portugal, and then played for two years in Deportivo La Coruna, of course, as a substitute, the first two years he played for Coventry in the Premier League, last season Coventry was relegated, he also became a free agent, but a good candidate - cheap, not young, willing to be a substitute, and French nationality, Not restricted by non-EU members.

"It just so happens that Beybur is gone, and if you get him, there will be no shortage of people on the bench...... Dick thought to himself.
