Chapter 567: The Newcomer Takes Place

From May 30 to June 5, Arsenal have made a huge amount of more than £120 million in exchange for the sale of four key rotations or original mainstays. At the same time, there are still rumors that many players in the team are being favored by other teams and that there is a possibility of leaving are widely spread in the media, how can it not make fans tremble.

Especially when Marca and Torino Sport published almost simultaneously that Real Madrid and Juventus had expressed strong interest in Nigerian Ndidi, who basically occupied the title of the world's No. 1 defender, the Gunners fans couldn't sit still, and on the day the Celestial Empire celebrated their holiday (Children's Day in the UK is celebrated on July 14), no less than 1,200 team supporters came to the club compound outside Highbury, hoping to get a promise from the top brass that the core of the team would not be sold.

As for the Gunners coach who single-handedly handles the team's transfer affairs, he presciently did not put his office in the office, and has been keeping in touch with the director and relevant staff at home through the Internet and telephone, Li Mudi is so hot in the UK now, once he appears in public, he will be surrounded by a group of paparazzi, not only is it difficult for him to move an inch, but also brings trouble to others, so he has to temporarily choose to stay at home to work.

Fortunately, because of this special summer, the family has no plans to travel, and there will be a special person in charge of player transfer affairs, at most, he needs to give the final decision as the head coach, which can be easily handled by phone. Therefore, being able to stay at home is also a good way to take a vacation, and with your family by your side, life is infinitely better. And just avoiding the encirclement of the fans is a side benefit, but it is a pain for the director Raul Sanley, who stayed at the station.

A day later, rumours of Ndididi's imminent departure intensified as Arsenal announced the signing of a Dutch midfielder from Barcelona for £31 million, Riccidelli Bazol, who could not fit into their system, in what was widely seen as the new iron midfielder to replace the Nigerian international.

Born in October 1996, the 185cm tall and 83kg weight is a promising defensive midfielder who has been trained by PSV Eindhoven and Ajax's two well-known academy academies. After joining Wolfsburg for 12 million euros in the winter of 2017, although he spent a year and a half on loan, he showed his talent to become a world-class midfielder in the Bundesliga from the beginning of the 2019-20 season, and it only took one year to impress Barcelona and successfully land at the Camp Nou.

Although Bazol's two years in Spain have not been very successful due to the team's tactical style and the manager's approach, Li Mudi is convinced that the Dutchman, who was previously thought to be Yaya Toure, will become Arsenal's new generation of Vieira, because he has a very balanced ability at both ends of the pitch and has everything he needs to become a world-class B2B star, which can help the Gunners further strengthen their midfield strength.

As for Ndidi, unless there is really a team that can throw two or three hundred million, he will not let him go, at least in this season. After N'Golo Kante and other older midfielders gradually passed their prime, the Nigerian national team captain became a veritable world No. 1 beast waist, which will play a vital role in the team's defense.

Arsenal's second signing was announced on 3 June, when 1995-born Swiss international Manuel Akanji joined the new Champions League winners from Borussia Dortmund for £35 million.

That's a low price for the player's ability and past performances, but Akanji suffered a serious knee injury last fall and didn't return to the court until the end of the season, and the Hornets are still hesitant to use him. However, this is not a big deal for Li Mudi, the FM system shows that the opponent's injury tendency is only 7, and he is not a glass man who is easily riddled with injuries. The most important thing is that with the influence of the medal aura, the player's body will be protected to the greatest extent, so to be able to acquire this world-class central defender at this price point is really a great deal.

Akanji can form a good competition with Harry Maguire and Llorente in the Arsenal team, and with a rotating central defender of the caliber of Mustafi and Holding, Li Muddy will have one of the best defensive lines of his coaching career in the new season, and it will be a real ghost if he can't play well.

However, it is precisely because the Gunners' defensive strength has reached such a level that their meritorious captain Koscielny will be relieved to choose the decision to retire, after lifting the Premier League and Champions League trophies in the last two years of his career, he has no regrets, coupled with the rapid decline in physical fitness, it is difficult to keep up with the increasingly fierce pace of the game, so he made the decision to take off his shirt and join the Arsenal youth team coaching staff.

Although the departure of the old captain is reluctant, seeing the improvement of the team's strength, both the club and the fans can still say goodbye with a sense of relief. Koscielny's farewell match was set for the first warm-up game of the new season against Ligue 1 side Lorient, his former club who spent a season before joining Arsenal, and it was in the port city of north-west France that he made his debut in the French top flight and showed the potential of a first-class defensive star, thus opening the door to success.

After each of the midfield and backfield has a new signing and has improved in strength, it is naturally the turn of the front court that everyone is most concerned about. With the sale of three important strikers in the squad, including Chuma, Golovin and Alexandre Lacazette, Arsenal are now in dire need of the right person to replace them, and with the way their manager adjusts, the newcomers will naturally have to be more powerful, otherwise they will not be fooled.

Soon, the first new striker signing was wearing the Gunners' shirt. Born in 1999, homegrown high school striker George Hirst is the son of former England international and Sheffield Wednesday legend David Hirst, with a height of 1.91 meters and a weight of 82 kilograms. In addition, his excellent ability to finish with headers and finishing in front of goal, as well as his skills above the level and his back, have made him the leading striker for England's national youth teams at all levels at a young age.

Unfortunately, at the age of 17, he was "lured" by the little-known Belgian second division side Odehiveri to leave his parent club Sheffield Wednesday with the condition of a main position, and since then he has been in a growing struggle, gradually losing his advantage over his peers. Also last summer, his parent team recalled him to the team, regardless of his previous suspicions. With the help of his parent coach, George Hirst has rediscovered his old sense of play, but Sheffield Wednesday's environment and the emergence of other young homegrown players have prevented him from getting as much attention as he did at the beginning.

Such a 23-year-old striker with a potential of 164 and a current ability of 146, although he does not seem to be much better than Chuma, is more physical than the Spaniard, and will be more effective as a pillar centre-forward. Coupled with the factor of household registration, using him to replace Chuma is definitely in line with Arsenal's localized team building concept.

The most important thing is that now the introduction of George Hearst only needs to pay Sheffield Wednesday less than 9 million pounds, even if all the floating clauses are added, it will not exceed 12 million, which is very value, and Li Mudi will naturally not miss this good opportunity to show his excellent Taobao ability.

After the adjustment of the high striker position, compared with the few players who have left the team, Arsenal are left with only the role of winger (Golovin) and a leading striker (Alexandre Lacazette) to be added.

The former is very simple, with Gunners academy graduate Les Nelson from 1999 set to be promoted to the first team for the new season, and the lad is also a versatile player, although he plays the role of right winger, but left winger and midfielder can also make cameo appearances. At 175 centimetres tall, he is a modern striker with technical acceleration that suits the tactical style currently used by Arsenal and is one of the best of his age in terms of ability, and fans can expect more opportunities for the boy to perform.

As for the last and most important vacancy, after missing out on Neymar, Christian Pulisic and Depay, several stars who have entered the transfer market, Li Muddy rejected the self-recommended Batshuayi and Lozano, and instead made a big move on the first Sunday of June, spending a whopping £68 million to bring in former Brazilian prodigy Rodrigo Silva de Gus, who has never proven himself in European football in the three years he has been in European football, and successfully dominated countless media headlines in an instant.

In the spring of 2018, Fiorentino, who had perhaps thought of ousting Cristiano Ronaldo from the Bernabeu at the end of the season, instructed the club's sporting director Sanchez to finalize three future investments in quick succession, signing Flamengo's left winger Vinicius Júnior, Novari Santino's right winger Rodrigo Antonio Rodriguez (known as Rodrygo) and Santos's left winger Rodrigo Jr., the latter being the new core of the Gunners' new striker brought in by Li Mudi.

At that time, the eldest of the three Brazilian youngsters had not yet reached the age of 18, and he had just started the beginning of his professional career in Brazil's top league, and he was able to rise to the top of the world by Real Madrid, the world's No. 1 giant, which naturally caused a great sensation.

However, comparing their transfer values, it can be easily seen that the most optimistic about the Galaxy are Vinicius and Rodrygo Jr., and the 45 million euros paid for each of them is enough to become proof.

And from the limited information available at the beginning, it is indeed reflected in the infinite potential of these two young Brazilian players, and it is not surprising that the media has touted Pelé II. It's just that this title is like the crow's mouth of our football king, which basically belongs to the "tireless" type of big killer, except for Neymar who escaped by luck over the years, the rest of the genius prodigies have not been able to escape the tragic ending of Zhongyong, which is a strange law in international football.

Real Madrid's three operations at that time can basically be declared a failure so far, but the final outcome of each is not the same.

Big Rodrygo, who is only worth 4 million euros, did not play, which is still understandable, after all, his talent is the worst of the three, but compared with the 10 million that was sold to Villarreal later, Real Madrid can obviously still be called a small profit.

As for Vinicius, who looks several times older than his actual age, it is a bit of Robinho's successor, although the technology is infinitely coquettish, but it often does not receive too good results in actual combat. In addition, his thin stature was not conducive to competing with the muscular clubs in Europe, and it was not until last season that he barely reached a certain level of fitness at the Bernabeu.

It's just that Isco is in his prime, Asensio has grown into a top star, and there is a Salazar who is two years older than him also occupies a solid rotation position in the team as a local player, plus the rest of his teammates who have been in and out of the past two seasons, the future of Vinicius, who is already 23 years old, is really difficult at Real Madrid.

However, fortunately, in the limited playing time, he still showed a certain strength, even though the immediate value has fallen to 30 million euros, but in today's transfer market, there are still many teams willing to bet on this technical frontfielder who still has some potential, as long as Real Madrid expresses its willingness to release, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to recover the cost of 45 million that year.

Compared with the infinite scenery four years ago, the worst situation now is little Rodrigo, who has been given the highest expectations. Because of his age, he had to stay in Brazil for an extra year before he was able to land in Europe, and it was in the spring of 2019 that the Brazilian winger, who had already shown a bright future in South America, suffered a serious calf ligament tear and took seven months to recuperate before standing on the green field again, which also delayed the run-in with his new teammates and laid the groundwork for the subsequent sluggish performance.

Unable to find his role at the Bernabeu, Rodrygo Jr. was loaned out to Getafe last season to find his fit for La Liga and European football. However, due to the manager's tactical arrangement, he can only play the role of a wide attacker and a central striker in the team, and has not really been able to use all his abilities.

Guti clearly sees the loan problem and is ready to give the lad another chance, intending to find a more suitable "leveling point" for him this summer, because in the occasional appearances in the past, Rodrygo Jr. still showed some of his unrivalled talent, which made Real Madrid reluctant to give him up easily.

But just as the loan deal for Villarreal was about to be reached, Li Mudi made a sudden move, completing the cut with a new offer for the club's highest transfer fee, signing the young striker whose talent ceiling looks a little unpredictable, and handing the team's legendary No. 14 shirt to Rodrigo Jr.

If this kind of news doesn't make the headlines of the major sports media, then hell!

As a result, in the next month or so, the voice of questioning the Gunners coach's recruitment has always resounded in Europe, especially in English football, until the league has started and deepened to a certain extent, people have to admit that Li Mudi's vision in the transfer market is still not easily questioned.
