"Mr. Dick, I don't think £8 million is enough to buy a good goalscorer like Ruud van Nistelrooy, although he is not young, but he has not performed badly in these two seasons, such a top striker, £8 million is not worth his value."

Real Madrid's transfer director, former Yugoslav superstar Mijatovic, said to Dick with a frown as he looked at an offer in front of him.

Dick waved his hand lightly, "Oh, it seems that I misunderstood...... I received the news that Real Madrid wanted to sell Ruud van Nistelrooy, so I wanted to help you solve a problem...... I didn't expect it to be like this, so forget it. ”

Speaking of this, Dick smiled slightly: "In May, Ruud van Nistelrooy underwent surgery on his own in order to participate in the European Cup, and at that time I heard the news that he was going to be sold. ”

Dick is very sure that Real Madrid wants to sell Vanney, you must know that Vanney is now thirty-two years old, although last season's performance was still excellent, with sixteen La Liga goals, but in May he ignored the club's dissuasion, went to surgery himself, so that there was a rift between him and Real Madrid, at that time the news of Real Madrid's top management to sell him, such a player Real Madrid wants more, that is really to take themselves as wronged, if they want to pay a high price, Dick would rather give up.

Although Ruud van Nistelrooy is a very suitable signing, he is a bit old and may not necessarily be a main player, and Torres Di Natale can be rotated and complementary, and his reputation is not small...... However, if the price is too high, Dick is not willing to spend too much on him, because Dick vaguely remembers that Vanney often suffered serious injuries in the next two years, so he did not play too many games, such a risk can be tried, but if it is too much, it is really better to find other options.

"Okay, Mr. Dick, I think we can still discuss it......" Mijatovic said helplessly, he originally wanted to take advantage of the trend to knock a stroke on Manchester City, after all, Manchester City has bought people in the past two years, and he can be regarded as wealthy, who knows that this guy is actually holding it up now, seeing that Real Madrid is also a period of blood exchange, Vanney is not a very important time for them, so they want to take the bottom at the lowest price.

"No, Mr. Mijatovic, Ruud van Nistelrooy joined Real Madrid two years ago for only 15 million euros, and now we are paying 8 million pounds for more than 10 million, for his age, such a price is appropriate, no matter how high, we will not agree."

Dick began to harden, and despite the large budget on hand, Dick was not going to be the one to be wronged—the money saved, but what about his future operating funds......

In the end, after haggling, Real Madrid agreed to City's offer of £9 million, and now City can discuss a contract with Ruud van Nistelrooy.

"Mr. Fanny, I think you understand what we're here for...... Yes, we have to play the Champions Cup next season, we need experienced strikers like you to help us get through this, in terms of personal treatment, I guarantee that you will not change anything, although I can't guarantee the main position, but we don't have a lot of strikers, opportunities, not too few. ”

When Dick met Ruud van Nistelrooy, he had just finished the European Championship and his Dutch national team had been eliminated by the Russian national team in the European Championships.

Ruud van Nistelrooy knows that Real Madrid are very unhappy with his surgery, and for the 32-year-old, the options are not very special, and in Dick's opinion, it will not be too difficult for Ruud van Nistelrooy to accept Manchester City's offer.

However, Dick underestimated one thing, and that was Ruud van Nistelrooy's feelings for Manchester United......

Although Ruud van Nistoy was not too happy to leave Manchester United, at this time, he still turned down Dick's invitation.

"Mr Dick, I appreciate the importance you have shown me, and I have to say that I am very tempted to have this invitation, but sorry, I am not ready to play in the Premier League, let alone another team in Manchester...... Personally, I don't have any ill feelings towards Manchester City, but in such a situation, I'd rather stay at Real Madrid than go to Manchester City and fight Manchester United. ”

Looking at Ruud van Nistelrooy's honest eyes, Dick was a little stunned - he didn't expect Ruud vanney's feelings for Manchester United to be so deep, even if he stayed at Real Madrid for two years, he didn't want to join Manchester City and didn't want to return to the Premier League.

“…… You know, we've got a lot of tasks to do this season, and I don't think there's going to be a better home than us, so don't you really think about it anymore? Dick asked tentatively.

"I really don't want to, it's not anything else, it's that I can't face the stuff of coming back to Manchester to play...... Sorry, Mr. Dick. Fanny shook his head, eventually declining Dick's invitation.

Dick spread his hands, there is no way, Manchester City and Dick are attractive enough, but unfortunately, Ruud van Nistelrooy does not want to return to the Premier League, this kind of thing, others can't force it.

Real Madrid were also a little caught off guard by the breakdown of negotiations between Dick and Ruud van Nistelrooy, who had already planned to find another striker, but Ruud van Nistelrooy decided to stay, and they could only prepare for a second hand.

When Real Madrid was a little busy, Dick had already left Madrid, and now it is not easy to find a striker who can be poached, Vanney is a very suitable one, and other older top strikers are unlikely to change positions, and if you want Dick's favorite striker, you have to spend money......

There are several famous black shops in Europe now, Porto's striker Dick is still not looking at it, they just bought Hulk at the beginning of the year, but players like Hulk Dick may not be able to get it even if he takes the lead, after all, his labor certificate is rare to get, and Cavani is the same, including what Falcao, Suarez, Manchester City are facing such a problem, not to mention that these strikers are still young, and they are not players who can fight when they come, at least they are in Europe, and they have to face a problem of adaptability.

Other top strikers in their playing years, their clubs will hardly release Dick because they throw money at it, unless they are making trouble to leave, but no player usually does such a thing now, so after a long discussion with Marriner, Dick finally decided on the second record.

Karim Mustafa Benzema, the young French striker who won Ligue 1's top scorer last season, is under 21 years old.

In fact, Benzema became famous very early, four years ago, he and Menes, Ben Alfa, Nasri and called the four little kings of the French junior team, these four people have different characteristics, Nasri is a midfield playmaker who can be in the middle of the side, Menes has comprehensive characteristics, more suitable for the position of shadow striker, Ben Alfa is an excellent winger, and Benzema, is an excellent center forward, these four people cooperate tacitly in the game, for the French junior team to win the European Junior Championship, The following year, they won the European Youth Championship.

And in the club, in the seven-time champion Lyon, Benzema has been given a lot of opportunities to perform, and his performance is getting better and better, with the last substitute at the beginning, to the main rotation players last season, last season when the main players such as Kalou, Wiltord, Malouda and other main players have left, Benzema has naturally become Lyon's central striker, and his performance has also exploded with the stability of the main lineup, a total of 52 appearances throughout the season, scoring 31 goals and four assistsEspecially in the Champions League, he made seven appearances, four goals and two assists, almost accounting for more than half of Lyon's goals in the Champions League, such a performance is enough to prove what a good player Benzema is.

Now there are no giants to attack him, that's because everyone thinks that Benzema has only one season of outstanding performance, and the gold content of the top scorer in Ligue 1 is not particularly enough, if it can last for two seasons, then it can really prove that he is a top player, at this time to dig him, spend a lot of money, and at the same time take risks, and now the giants are not so bad strikers, so the real giants, have not shot.

So although Lyon boss Olas's desk is full of offers for Benzema, none of them make him happy, the highest is only 15 million euros, and at most it is a second-rate team in the four major leagues, such an offer will not make him feel moved, nor will Benzema feel moved.

As last season's top scorer, best player and league winner in Ligue 1, Benzema has now reached a high enough starting point and is still young enough to afford to wait.

But all this is not a problem for Dick, he is sure that Benzema is an excellent player, with enough ability, and at the same time he is not short of money, to buy Vanney because it can better save a fortune, since it can't be bought, spend more money to smash Benzema, that's okay, it's a big deal to spend 30 million pounds, such an offer, even if it is insatiable Lyon, will not refuse.

Now that the next candidate has been decided, it is simple to do both ways, use a bigger stage to attract Benzema, and satisfy Aolas's appetite with a lot of money!

"Twenty million pounds? Manchester City is really rich! ”

When Olas saw Manchester City's offer to Benzema, he couldn't help but sigh, the first offer offered such a price, which really made Olas staggered, although Lyon as a famous black shop, there are many high-priced players sold, such as Essien is a typical example, but such a young striker, the first shot of 20 million pounds, Manchester City's imperative mentality has been shown.

Aulas knows that although he has labeled Benzema as a non-sale, but that is just to make Benzema's performance better and then sell it at a high price, but the young French striker, even if he is a genius, can sell more than 30 million euros is already the sky, after all, Ligue 1 is the most unvaluable league in the five major leagues, they are more to replace the status of the former Eredivisie arsenal, for other leagues to send players, to French League players can sell sky-high prices, it is really unrealistic, Unless it's to hit the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City......

20 million pounds is almost equal to 26 million euros, you must know that to keep Benzema, his current salary of 2 million euros is definitely not enough, Aulas has estimated that if he keeps Benzema next season, his salary will be at least doubled, that is, 4 million euros, if he sells it at this price now, Lyon is equivalent to making 30 million euros, which is almost to Aolas's psychological bottom line.

Keeping people is just a strategy, not really to keep people, which is Aulas's philosophy of selling people.
