1026 Tyrant's Game
Ibrahimovic moves to Paris Saint-Germain!
The news quickly spread from Europe to the rest of the world, and was confirmed by Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.
The transfer fee is as high as 60 million euros, and PSG will pay Ibrahimovic an annual salary of 18 million euros after tax, which will make the Swedish center forward the second highest annual salary in world football after Yang Yang, surpassing Barcelona's Lionel Messi and Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ibrahimovic sent a text message to Yang Yang two days before the transfer was finalized, meaning that the transfer was basically negotiated and would be announced in the near future, but he did not call, and Yang Yang did not call back.
Obviously, both of them were reluctant to say goodbye in person.
This time is different from when he was at Ajax, Yang Yang feels that he may never have the opportunity to fight alongside Ibrahimovic in the future.
Before selling Ibrahimovic, Real Madrid had quietly completed another transfer deal during Yang Yang's last-10 match, with Brazilian right defender McCone moving to Manchester City in the Premier League for 15 million euros, and McCone will also receive a better contract than at Real Madrid.
In this regard, the Brazilian right full-back is quite satisfied on the phone, he is very confident that he can continue to shine in the Premier League, and there are old teammates such as Sneijder and De Jong in the Manchester City team, but he will not be lonely.
And just after Real Madrid announced the transfer of Ibrahimovic, another deal was quickly confirmed, that is, Kaka moved to AC Milan for a transfer fee of 30 million euros.
Compared with the 65 million euros he paid when he moved to Real Madrid three years ago, Kaka's value has shrunk significantly, of course, because he has reached the age of 30, but more importantly, because his performance at Real Madrid is not as good as that of superstars such as Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic, and even slightly inferior to Robben and Di Maria.
However, AC Milan fans have welcomed Kaka's return and they still remember the joy and enjoyment that the Brazilians have brought them, and they have not forgotten what Kaka has done for them.
Because of this, many media and fans in the outside world have no shortage of voices criticizing Real Madrid, mainly because Real Madrid is ruthless, and the players will be purged as soon as they are over 30 years old, leaving no mercy, which is a huge blow to the image of Real Madrid.
On the one hand, Yang Yang regrets and regrets the departure of several old friends, and his mood is not particularly good, but on the other hand, he cannot criticize the club's approach, which is normal from the perspective of the operator.
Even, if Yang Yang is put in the shoes of Ibrahimovic and Kaka, he will definitely choose to leave.
……
"It's been a strange summer transfer market in Europe this year."
When Yang Yang returned to Beijing from Australia and returned home from the national team, the Wei Zheng brothers and Winston Bogard came to the door.
Shen Yuzhu and others accompanied Yang Yang's parents and Su Ye to play with their children in the living room of their home, while Yang Yang and the others stayed in the study to chat, and the topic soon fell to several news that detonated European football transfers one after another in recent times.
"According to the information we have received so far, the five major leagues will basically not make any big moves except for Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, and it seems that all teams are tightening their money, so that the hottest in the transfer market is now Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain, the Russian Premier League and the Ukrainian League." Wei Zheng was very puzzled by this.
"But the biggest surprise for me was Barcelona, who were empty-handed last season, and Rusell promised to regroup this summer, but so far they have only brought in one Alba, spent 14 million euros, and wanted to buy Alexander Song from Arsenal, but they refused to pay more."
Wei Zhen and Winston Bogard also nodded their heads, which was indeed very strange.
Yang Yang has played in La Liga for three years, and he is definitely more familiar with the situation of Spanish football than them, but he is not surprised by this phenomenon at all, "That's because Barcelona really has no money." ”
"No money?" Everyone was surprised.
"Of course, when I say no money, I don't mean that they are poor or anything, because Barcelona's finances are definitely much better than other teams, but they are not good enough to buy and buy unscrupulously, which is not comparable to the local tyrant team, and when it comes to a team of Barcelona's level, the players they want will not be too low."
Russell succeeded in taking office by questioning Laporta's finances, which led to the fact that after he came to power, he even almost sent Laporta to prison, for which Florentino personally persuaded him, thinking that he should not be so embarrassed, which is not good for the image of the two giants.
From this point of view, Rosell's foundation at the helm of Barcelona is to improve the club's finances, so he has always tried to do so, including wanting to break with tradition, sell Barca's chest advertising, and also reduce Pep Guardiola's coaching staff.
Last season was empty-handed and achieved nothing, Rosell must be under a lot of pressure, and it is inevitable to restructure the team, but it must be admitted that Barcelona is far inferior to Real Madrid in terms of club management, daily operations, and business operation capabilities.
Florentino runs Real Madrid in the same way as a modern company, which gives every manager in every department of Real Madrid a very good ability, and in today's European football, Real Madrid is the best in this regard, and only Manchester United can match it.
Although Bayern Munich has a lot of commercial income, it actually relies more on the strong economic strength of Germany, and when it comes to club management and operation, especially in terms of global promotion, Bayern is not as good as Real Madrid and Manchester United.
But the problem with modern corporate operations is a lack of emotion.
Selling the likes of Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Maxwell and McCone this summer would be a smart choice from the perspective of running a company, but emotionally it would be unacceptable.
After Pep Guardiola's departure, Vilanova will take on the burden of challenging Real Madrid, and his transfer list is said to include a striker, a midfielder, a centre-back and a left wing-back, with the left wing-back having brought in Jordi Alba and the midfielder locking in Arsenal's Alexander Song.
As for the central defenders, AC Milan's Thiago Silva is currently on the look, but the most important thing is the striker.
"Barcelona are now betting heavily on the Brazilian genius Neymar, but it is not easy to bring in this player, and according to what I know, Barcelona will pay a whopping 60 million euros for it."
"Sixty million?" The Wei Zhen brothers and Winston Bogard were surprised.
That's a lot of money for a European A-list, let alone for a Brazilian talent who has never proven himself on the European stage so far.
"You know, not long ago, Paris Saint-Germain brought in Lucas Moura from Brazil and spent 40 million euros, just imagine, if Lucas Moura is worth 40 million euros, then Neymar is worth 60 million euros, is it expensive?" Yang Yang asked rhetorically.
Everyone was speechless, and it seemed that it was really not very expensive.
"Even this is just news from the outside world, whether it is really only 60 million euros, I'm afraid only Barcelona and Neymar know in their own hearts, I heard that they signed an agreement privately a year ago, God knows what?"
Yang Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly, he has always stayed away from this kind of headache.
"Some people say that any team in the world can only compete for third place in La Liga, because there are two of the best teams in the world, Real Madrid and Barcelona, and it's not just on the pitch, it's also in the transfer market."
"Throughout the past few years, Real Madrid and Barcelona's money-burning game will greatly drive the investment of other teams in La Liga, and then drive the prosperity of the entire Spanish football market, but this year, Real Madrid will definitely not burn money for the renovation of the stadium, Barcelona has a lot of debt, and wants to buy Neymar, and it will definitely not be a big recruitment, and the lineups of the two teams are already very perfect, only need local targeted reinforcements, more rational."
When Real Madrid and Barcelona, the two locomotives, begin to tighten their money, the transfer market in La Liga will definitely decline.
Not only La Liga, but also the Premier League, which has always been a big money burner, is also the same.
Manchester United is deeply involved in the debts of the Glazer family, Ferguson will not be aggressively recruited, let alone Arsenal, Wenger has never been this kind of person, the only capable is the local tyrant team Manchester City and Chelsea, but the problem is that Chelsea only won the sixth place in the league last season, missed the European stage, although it reached the Champions League final, but only won the runner-up, the attraction of the player is greatly reduced, plus Abramovich has been tightening the monetary base, whether he is willing to burn money is also a question.
Besides, with the brutal incursions of Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as the local tyrant teams of Russia and Ukraine, the European transfer market has been completely turned upside down, and there are only so many good players, everyone wants it, so they can only grab it.
But when it comes to burning money, who can burn these local tyrants?
Compared with other teams, Real Madrid's current squad is still very strong, mainly after the departure of Ibrahimovic in the front, another powerful star needs to be introduced, and the right wing-back position in the back line also needs to be strengthened.
Judging from the current European transfer market, there are very few quality right wing-backs and they are very scarce, so Real Madrid's current strategy is still to develop Carvajal, and Arbeloa will be heavily used, because he has played well in the Spanish national team recently, and it is likely that he will be corrected in the new season to fill the gap left by McConn.
It is worth mentioning that in the opening match of this European Cup, Bosque of the Spanish national team used the 4231 formation used by Real Madrid when he won the Champions League, with Xavi Alonso and Busquets in the backs, David Silva, Xavi and Iniesta as the three, and Torres in front.
But this style of play was a 1-1 draw with Italy in the first game, which was quite controversial.
