"Let's calculate what kind of players I need now, what kind of players I want to sell." Dick stood up and began pacing back and forth in the office, his habit of thinking about what kind of players he needed.

He used the most cruel method, that is, to first set the team's lineup, buy people to make up for what can be made up, and leave the existing players to use if they can't make up for it, other than that, other players, don't do anything!

"In the goalkeeper position, Lehmann was the main player, Weidenfeller was on the bench, and then a goalkeeper from the youth team was brought in to be the third goalkeeper...... The other goalkeepers, Lawx is not young, Rataisak and Cushman are young, but they have no future in the future, rather than staying on the bench, it is better to transfer them to save some salary. With that in mind, Dick crossed out the names of three goalkeepers on the roster.

"On the back line, I only need to keep Warnes and Metzeld as a central defender, Warnes will definitely be the main force, but Metzelder is still a little tender and prone to injury, at least a good central defender needs to be introduced to play the main force, Metzelder is a substitute, Madoni is not strong, but it's okay to be a substitute, and his salary is not high, just keep it."

The problem of central defenders is easier to solve, Dortmund does not have many central defenders, and with the retirement of Corel, they need to make up for the lineup.

"In the right-back position, Ruyt will find a way to retire him, he is thirty-six years old, and he can't play for a few years, or he can take a pay cut to play as a substitute, he is a versatile winger, and it is okay to keep it. It would be enough for Evanelson to sell off, save on salaries and recoup funds, and bring in an attacking full-back who can play on the right flank. ”

"Left-back Dede can be kept, this is a good left-back, he has no problem playing the main team, the salary is not particularly high, Achenbach was Dede's substitute last season, he can continue to play as a substitute this season, local players, no problem to keep. Heinrich can't ask for it, his state has dropped a lot, and his worth is still high. ”

"Lower back position...... Kyle stays, Olisech and Stevic are sold, they are not young, the salary is also a lot, it is useless to keep, Rosicky can drop back to play in the back, he will play in this position in the future, he can also organize in the back, and the defensive ability is not bad, but in this case we also need a midfielder who can run and shoot from a distance, which is a problem that needs to be solved in the transfer market. The substitutes are not bad, Klinger, Guemmel, these are all young players, they have a certain strength, they can play as substitutes, and the salary is not high. ”

"In terms of attacking midfielders, what Ado, Reina, the strength is not very good, Addo also occupies the foreign aid quota, find a way to sell it, the salary of the two of them combined, it is almost close to two million, the attacking midfielder can be recruited, Ricken and Everton can play as substitutes, if Rosicky retreats, then a good attacking midfielder must be introduced."

"Striker...... It needs major surgery, Amoruso, Jankorler, these two high-paid players can't stay anymore, Helrich can't keep either, he's old, his strength is average, if he plays a single striker, I only need to bring in a striker with excellent scoring ability, Amoruso and Jankoller, I don't need to stay, and Hellrich doesn't need it either. ”

After some calculations, the twelve players who were sentenced to death were Evanilson, Amoruso, Jankoler, Olisekh, Stevich, Addo, Heinrich, Reina, Heerich, Laux, Rataisak and Kushman, their salaries are not low, but Evanelson, Amoruso, and Jankoller performed quite well last season, and now it can be regarded as a year of play, and they must be able to sell a lot of money, and the other nine are to clear their salaries, You must know that the salaries of the nine of them add up to almost 10 million, plus the salaries of the other three, if these twelve people can be eliminated, then then Temund will be able to save more than 18 million salaries immediately!

Coupled with the retirement of Coral Corel, Dortmund's salary will immediately be reduced to less than 50 million, which is already a huge improvement for the entire club.

Dortmund spent 70 million euros on the team last season, which is second only to Bayern, which is the key to their good results, and in between, there are no less than 10 million euros paid to the youth team members, in fact, the salary expenditure of the first team is 60 million, and now it has been reduced by 20 million, which is already a considerable improvement.

At the same time, Dick will go to negotiate with Ruyter, he is old, he will gradually become a substitute in the new season, and the salary will naturally need to be reduced accordingly, it used to be an honor to give him a high salary, but now he has encountered an economic crisis, and it is also a kind of forced behavior.

Because Atletico Madrid is used to playing four-three-two-one, Dick also intends to use this trick after coming to Dortmund, and his tactical ability has been shown well enough in Atletico Madrid, so it is naturally a wiser choice to continue this state.

In addition to the 26 players mentioned above, Dortmund also has six young players, such as two young full-backs, two young central defenders, including young wide attackers such as Metzelder Jr., Odonko and another young striker, although many of them do not meet Dick's requirements, but they are not yet able to take care of them.

The first thing to do is to find a way to sell those players that Dick doesn't need, free up the salary amount and get transfer funds, except for the three valuable players, the other nine players to be sold will be notified immediately, the club will not have their place in the future, it is better to find their own way, many of them have not very long contracts, Dick does not plan to make too much money on them, as long as there is a suitable price, you can release people.

As for Amoruso, Jankoller and Evanelson, it needs to be detoured - Dick's plan is to ask them for a salary cut first, Amoruso's salary is reduced to two million, Jankoller's salary is reduced to 1.8 million, and Evanelson's salary is reduced to one million, if they agree, they can stay, if they don't, then let them enter the transfer market, they did well last season, and if they want to sell, they don't worry about no one taking over.

Dick wants to sell basically older players, such as Amoruso is now twenty-eight years old, his performance in the next season in history is very average, Jankoller is also twenty-nine years old, Evanelson is younger, twenty-seven years old, players like them are actually more popular in the transfer market, as long as the value is not too exaggerated, do not worry about the next family.

Dick doesn't care about being named a cronyist, anyway, he never cares what other people think of him, and he doesn't plan to bring in players from Atletico Madrid, after all, with Dortmund's current financial resources, it is still quite difficult for them to poach people from Atletico Madrid, and he knows with his knees that Hill Jr. will never sell players to him......

It's just that there are a lot of good players in this world, and there is no need to just go to Atletico Madrid to poach people.

After clarifying the whole idea of what was going on, Dick breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction.

He enjoys it, controlling the fate of the whole team, and he decides where so many people come and go...... Of course, there is a price to pay for having such power, for example, he has to achieve something to be able to maintain this power, otherwise he would not have maintained this power all the time at Atletico Madrid.

After a few phone calls, Dick informed the staff of Dortmund's transfer department and asked them to split up to communicate their intentions, nine players were put on the transfer market, three key players were asked to take a pay cut, and the last call was: "Book me a ticket to Brazil." ”

When he was at Atletico Madrid, Dick's tactics were four-three-two-one, and in Dortmund, Dick also planned to use this tactic, but in the position of the two attacking midfielders, Dick planned to change a little, the previous Vicente and Camoranesi were the kind of players who focused more on the wing, and this time Dick's choice was to focus more on the middle in these two positions, and the wing was handed over to the fullback or midfielder who assisted.

There is no transfer fee in hand, Dick can only make a fuss about those free transfer players first, although the salary of free transfer players is generally not low, but Dick still has a few killer tricks, that is, his reputation as a top manager!

In the two years at Atletico Madrid, he was able to win two heavyweight championships every year, and this ability to win the championship has been recognized, and some players, although they are very famous and strong, do not have too many decent honors, especially the lack of Champions Cup honors, as long as Dick can convince the other party, the other party is likely to agree to a salary cut to join.

Dick's first eye is the legendary Nigerian midfielder Okocha who has just ended his contract at Paris Saint-Germain - this debuted in the Bundesliga star before playing for Paris Saint-Germain for four years, due to the addition of Ronaldo, although the two worked well together on the field, but in order to make way for the younger Ronaldo, Okocha chose not to renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, but to spend the end of his career in other teams.

In fact, Okocha is not very old, he is not yet twenty-nine years old, with the physical quality of African players, he can play at a high level for another year or two, in fact, in the history that Dick knows, Okocha went to Bolton on a free transfer this summer, and he played at a very high level in Bolton for the next four seasons, as the core of Bolton's midfield, he brought Bolton from a team that was about to be relegated to the UEFA Cup, which is enough to prove that he is still in good shape.

And as an African player, his salary is not very high, at least if Dick can clear enough salary through the transfer, then letting Okocha join will not put any pressure on Dortmund's finances.

Before going to Brazil, Dick planned to get Okocha first, a star like him who is not bad at playing with flashy skills, which is very useful in the Bundesliga, not to mention that he played in Frankfurt for four years before, and is no stranger to the situation in the Bundesliga.

When the next day, Dortmund Club excitedly announced that it had reached an agreement with Dick, and Dick would coach Dortmund next, Dick did not appear at the press conference, he had quietly flown to France.

"Dick doesn't appear here, but I can tell you that Mr. Dick has already started his work in Dortmund, and we will see the most powerful Dortmund team of Dick!" Nebom said with a smile at a press conference.
