With the combined operation of his agent and Valentino Cairo, Li Mudi felt that with his unbeaten season and the performance of setting various records to win the double and be promoted to the second division, he might be able to get a chance to interview the new manager of Torino, and after Deputy Director Wang gave that hint, it seemed to add a lot of weight to the possible success in the end. So in his free time in the past few days, Li Mudi has been studying how to design a set of formations and tactical plays that can maximize the ability of existing players if he really joins the Italian team, after all, the club has limited financial resources and can hardly buy any excellent players. But at this moment, there was the bad news that the absolute main force in the plan would be sold to the main competitor, is this the difficulty of survival that God wants to face after crossing over, from the simple level to the difficulty?

When Gines was informed of the news, the Castilla coach was having dinner in the cafeteria, and was about to come and pack bags of uneaten food and return to his apartment, not wasting every grain of food is the most basic quality of life. After entering the room, he stuffed the leftovers in his hand into the refrigerator, and turned on the computer in a hurry, and at the same time called up the FM system in his mind to check the information of the Turin club.

I don't know if I don't know this, and I almost scared him into cardiac arrest when I saw it. Torino is not only discussing the transfer intention of Bruno Perez with Roma, but also discussing the trade of Polish central defender Kamil Glik (Kamil Glik) with French powerhouse Monaco at the same time, and it seems that it has progressed to the final link, this can be among the world's second-rate central defenders, the vice-captain of the Polish national team was only priced at 8 million euros, how much is it boring! In addition, Swedish international Pontus Jansson, who was loaned to Leeds United in the Championship, has also been offered by the other party for 3.5 million, which is only about half of his value, and it is also a tearful sale.

Seeing that the entire back line was about to be completely collapsed, Li Mudi couldn't sit still, and hurriedly picked up his mobile phone and dialed Valentino Cairo's phone number, but no one answered until a minute passed, and he was automatically hung up. He unwillingly dialed two more times in a row, but no one answered, and he was so angry that he almost dropped the mobile phone in his hand. After hurriedly calming down for a while, I looked up various transfer news about the Torino club on the computer, but unfortunately there was no big gain, and the relevant information found on the Internet was far less lively than in reality, it seems that their secrecy work is really good, and they should join the Italian Security Service if they stay in the team.

Just when Li Mudi was looking for news everywhere like an ant on a hot pot and was about to call Gines to ask about the specific situation, the mobile phone rang, and the caller was none other than Valve Cairo, the prince of the Turin club and the deputy director of the marketing department of the team's club, who did not answer the phone just now.

"Oh my God, I've finally got in touch with you! I TM called you several times and didn't answer, where did you die? Without waiting for the other party to say hello, there was a foul mouth here, and he was a little emotional.

Valentino looked frightened, stunned for a moment, and then responded, "Hey! Calm down, calm down, can I know what's going on? ”

In fact, Li Mudi regretted it a little as soon as he said it just now, the other party doesn't need to be blamed for his thoughts now, because he still has nothing to do with that position, thinking of this, he hurriedly adjusted his mentality, and said in a fairly calm tone: "I'm sorry, my tone was very bad before...... I apologize to you. ”

"OK, no problem, I should have made a few calls and didn't get through, so I'm in a hurry, hehe. Good news for you, I'm in Rome right now, and I'm in talks with Roma about the transfers of Iago Falqué and Juan Iturbe. You mentioned earlier that the team is too weak in the two winger positions, and I started all kinds of connections to find out that these two potential players could be loaned or even bought out, so I ran over and tried to get in touch, and from the conversation I just had with their principals, I felt very hopeful. Looking at Roma means that Falke can transfer, but Iturbe can only be loaned, I wanted to call you just now to ask for your opinion, and you ......"

The kid's chatter mode turned on again, and the anxious coach of Castilla interrupted: "Put aside the matter of bringing in players, let me ask you, what is the sale of Perez, Glick and Janssen?" ”

“…… What the? Wait until I clear my mind...... Janssen joined the club on a free transfer from Malmo two years ago, although he was unable to compete in the same position at the time, making few appearances in the team before spending last season on loan at Leeds United. I've gotten a report from a scout before, saying that the British side is quite satisfied with him, and it seems that an offer has been made? I didn't see any development prospects before, and he loves to play cards, do you think he has great potential? ”

"No, this player is also not in my plan, it is good to be able to dispose of it, but I heard that the price is a bit outrageous, you have to go and ask, the team is not a fire sale, why is the price so low?" The other party took the initiative to ask for it, and the price was only half of the normal price, which was very undeserved.

Hearing the reminder, Valentino Cairo responded: "No problem, I'll contact the club in a moment." After a pause, he continued: "I know a little bit about Perez, Ventura also mentioned to my father some time ago that the left side of the team is a little weak, and then he said that since Davide Zappacosta on the right side has grown, he suggested that Perez be traded for an attacker on the left, and when I talked to the manager of Roma about those two players, they mentioned the Brazilian, and they seemed to be interested in him. ”

Hearing this, Li Mudi felt that this kid was being used by others, since he was just expressing interest, how could the FM system give that the two clubs were already engaged in substantive discussions? Even Gines, who was far away in Spain, heard a little rumor, and it seemed that someone was deliberately hiding that the prince was making small moves, so he reminded him: "I heard that it was not just as simple as interest, it seems that the Club of Rome has already made an offer to you, but because it has not reached the price you have in mind, they are fighting each other." ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? You wait for me for a while......" After that, he hung up the phone, Li Mudi could only shake his head helplessly, it seems that there are some things that outsiders don't know about the Turin club, and suddenly there are doubts in his heart about going there to coach, don't fall into the fire pit and ruin his future......

Five minutes later, the phone was dialed again, and Valentino's tone was already a little unpleasant, "These lawless guys actually obeyed the orders of the Pagen guy while I took over the negotiations with Roma about the transfer of players. Well, this guy is the club's director of football, and he is my top boss in the position, but he doesn't know how to buy and sell a lot of players, and the team has been very inconsistent in recent years, and most of the blame is on him. But he was an old friend of my father, and I usually didn't dare to be angry...... Forget it, let's talk about Perez first. In recent years, it has not been popular in Italy to exchange players and co-ownership, and Page put forward a suggestion, we and Roma both bring in each other's players at a below-market price, so far, it is Perez and Falke, so as to reduce the declaration of related expenses and achieve the purpose of saving money in disguise. Don't tell me, I roughly estimated that this might cost my father about two million less in taxes, which is enough to buy another young player......"

"What if ZF Italy finds out about it? I think the corresponding penalty will be several times or even more than ten times the number saved! Don't mention the unspoken rules you have, I don't want to get involved, and now I tell you clearly that Perez will be one of the core players of the team in my plan, and even if it is sold, it must be approved by me, otherwise you can completely abandon the intention of asking me to coach in Turin. ”

"......" Hearing Li Mudi's strong declaration, Valentino Cairo on the other side of the phone was obviously taken aback, and hurriedly sorted out his thoughts before opening his mouth to persuade: "Hey, Li, don't say such things so impulsively, this can only have a negative impact on everything, isn't it?" I called my father in the evening, believing that if he had known what kind of disaster Peppa was doing behind his back, he would not have agreed to sell Perez. After sighing, he continued: "However, if we don't follow Page's method, Farke's transfer price will also rise, we will probably not have enough funds, and once Roma is blocked from bringing in Perez, we may not be able to transfer those two players to us, and the team's plan to strengthen on the left side will fail." ”

"Listen to me, you can't buy a left winger at the same level as him with the money you pay from selling the Brazilian, and it's a loss on the whole. The best outcome now is to keep him, and at the last time he has to sell for a high price, at least 25 million euros. In fact, if I were given a season, his value would have been a little longer, and it would be a pity to sell him this summer. The Castilla coach explained with some embarrassment, after all, the current Perez has not played for the Brazilian national team, and his popularity on the European continent is not high, and no big club will spend a lot of money on it.

However, as soon as he mentioned that there was still a lot of room for appreciation in the right position, Valentino Cairo suddenly became interested, and saw that he said with some excitement: "Oh? So next season the club will get even more bang for it! Maybe I can use this reason to convince my father to put his transfer on hold for the time being, but Lee, the key to success in this matter depends on whether you can succeed in Turin, and I can only do my best to postpone this deal for a while. If the head coach decides to sell Perez next season, there is absolutely no way around. After saying that, both ends of the phone fell into a brief silence, thinking that the team revival plan that the two had discussed before could not even be called the initial stage, after all, Li Mudi could not take over Torino, everything was empty talk, this helplessness of not being able to control his own destiny is really deeply frustrating.

After a while, Li Mudi made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Valentino, you put aside the work in your hand for the time being, go back to Turin first, I asked my agent Gines to rush over as soon as possible, he has a trump card in his hand that has not yet been taken out, you two discuss it together, see if you can create an opportunity for me to officially meet your father as soon as possible." It's the kind of meeting that officially puts me as the new manager, not the kind of casual meeting. I think it's time to completely lose control if I don't let go, so let's fight it once! ”

The person on the other side of the phone was frightened again, and persuaded in a very excited voice: "All in now?" It's too hasty! I think it's better to operate steadily for a while, anyway, there is still a month or so before the official end of this season, maybe we can increase the weight in our hands! ”

"No, you don't know what the trump card in Genes's hand is, you two will meet and discuss it first, and if there are any objections then, we will discuss it. You go back to Turin as soon as possible and let those three transactions be suspended or delayed as long as possible. Li Mudi replied categorically.

Seeing that the other party was so determined, Valentino agreed after a little thought, and after ending the call, he hurried to deal with the matter at hand, and tried to return to the club as soon as possible. The coach of Castilla immediately called his agent and informed the other party of the unfavorable situation he was in, and after thinking for a while, Gines agreed to immediately use all the resources in his hands, and he must quickly cut through the chaos to achieve the ultimate goal, and he will fly to Italy overnight.

After solving this rather tricky matter, Li Mudi reflected on his decision, and after thinking that it was the best option for now, he focused on the promotion play-off against Murcia Wukang University in three days' time, after all, leading the team is the stepping stone to open the door to a new club. At this time, he had completely forgotten that a very important thing had fallen in the phone call with the prince of Turin just now, until midnight, when he was woken up by the phone call, and heard the hysterical anger of the other party, he realized how deep the water in the Turin Club was. I don't know if a guy like him, whose emotional intelligence is far lower than that of ordinary people, will go to Turin to take over the whip and take charge of the competition, and whether he can finally retire from there.
