Chapter 108: It's Time for You to Study

Selly was quite prepared, knowing that Hugo would definitely ask about the transfer when he came back, so he deliberately made two lists.

Hugo first looked at the players who were leaving, these people were all local players of Trapani, and he had long known that this day would come, but Hugo still felt a little, these amateur players were not easy, and the level was a little worse, but they were indeed the heroes of the team's promotion.

In the past, there was some controversy over the handling of these players, and Giorgio believes that these players may not be able to play in League C 2, and some of these players can be left in order to save money.

Sailly doesn't think so, he admits that some local players in the team are still capable of playing in the second team, but he believes that they are not too young and can basically see the future, rather than wasting time on them, it is better to recruit some young people to the top, not only to train the team, but also to achieve the purpose of promotion.

Promotion is the focus of contention between the two sides, Hugo is most concerned about promotion, but whether it is to keep the old courtiers or use young players, who can guarantee that the team can be promoted, who can guarantee it?! No one can guarantee it.

Hugo finally chose to stand on Sailly's side in that communication, young people are the future, now the team level is relatively low, and there is a tolerance for errors, is it really in Serie A, do you have the opportunity to train young people?! No! Now the teams in Serie A are all in this habit, and there are very few habits of developing players in Serie A, all of them are loaned to teams in the lower leagues to train the players.

At present, only two local players can be left in the first team, Victor and Pioro, and the other players will all be purged out of this team.

Hugo is not surprised by this choice, he continues to play in teams that are closer to Trapani, at a lower level than the Italian team, such as the team in the town of Pacheco, where the training base is located, the distance is a problem for the players, where they can get a good salary, enough to support their families, but there is no such possibility when they go to other places, it is better to continue playing than to choose a job to be able to support their families.

"I'll talk to them about it sometime! They're all good! Hugo put down the list and muttered to himself.

"Yes, they contributed to the team! But now we have to look forward, Gigi, and our future must be good. Celillo offered consolation.

"Yes, you don't know, I had a deep conflict with them at the beginning, and it was Giorgio who helped me a lot, otherwise we would not have been able to upgrade last season!" Hugo recalled, "Forget it, don't tell the old story!" Let me see what you've been up to lately! ”

Hugo smiled and looked at the second list, there were only nine people on the second list, three of which were recommended by Mendes, Bosingva, Meireles, and Ferreira, of which Ferreira will not join until next year.

There are still six players left to run by Sailly and Giorgio, three of whom are on loan and three are transferred.

Andrea. Barzagli, a native of Florence, previously played in Rondinella near Florence, which is also a team in the Serie D, and had a loan of Pistoia in Serie B last season, but there was no chance, Sailly spent 2000 euros to bring him in from Rondinella, and he was interested in his multi-faceted attributes, this player is now less than 19 years old, but he has played forward, midfielder, defender, is a versatile player, it is unrealistic to want the team to supplement the huge squad of last season, Sailly hopes that the team can be more versatile.

Simone. Pepe, who is not yet 18 years old, was also transferred by Sely, this player spent less, and only 1,000 euros took him from the academy in Roma, Roma is a big team for Trapani, but it is precisely because of their size that these young players do not have much chance, and the transfer is a good option.

Fabio. Grosso, a native of Pesca near Rome, 23 years old, went to Chieti in the second league on a free transfer last year, made 25 appearances in the league on behalf of Chieti and scored 4 goals, he is a left wing-back, the offensive ability is more prominent, Selly did not pay much, only 5000 euros, Chieti was released, for them Trapani is rich, Hugo's team has not yet reached the second league, but everyone knows Hugo's fame, ambitious, 5,000 euros is a knock on Trapani.

All three of them were transferred from Sailly, and the future ownership belongs to Trapani, and they all have in common the fact that they are young, and of course none of them have played in the higher leagues, and Simeone Pepe has not even played in the professional league.

"You think they're talented?!" Hugo has a special focus on his own players.

"Gigi, what do you want me to say about you?!" Selly didn't know what to say, Hugo had been doing it for so long, and he thought Hugo should understand.

"There is simply no one in this world who can see the future! You say how talented they are and how high they will grow in the future, I can't give an answer at all, only God knows such things! I can only say that they are suitable for the team, the price is not expensive, I mainly give the salary, I give each of them an annual salary of 20,000-30,000 euros after tax, which is the most critical factor for them to join the team! Sailly said with a wry smile.

"Of course, in my opinion at the moment, I think we will not lose our efforts! You know why?! Selly then smiled mysteriously, Hugo didn't know how business was done, and he was still too tender in football.

"How?!" Hugo asked curiously.

"Do you know where their advantage is?! Young! If we are successfully promoted, or if we go to Serie B in the future, they will always grow, maybe not meet expectations, but they have experience, even if we want to change hands in the future, it will be easy to get rid of it, there will be a lot of clubs that want, maybe there are big clubs that take a fancy to them, and we can easily get it back with interest! Sailly said with a smile, this is the business experience, although Hugo proposed to be younger, but his mind has always wanted to get the best strength of the team, good players don't want to let go, bad players don't want to, ignoring the team actually wants people to come and make transactions.

Hugo asked about their talents, obviously with high expectations, but in Selly's opinion, is talent important?! Maybe it's not that important, as long as these few can endure hardships and have a certain amount of talent, they will be young and they will grow up, and they may be able to bring unexpected income to the team in the future.

Sailly is not only building the team but also doing business, which is a little different from Hugo's idea, but he figured it out with the agent Mendes, the team is also a store, we have to open the door to do business, a good material is coming, let's add processing, even if the product is not very good, but if he is produced by a very good team, the price will naturally go up.

Sailly's idea is in line with the commodity market, for example, the products produced by copycat manufacturers are exactly the same, and the products with the same functions are much lower than the price of the genuine version.

Trapani can't be promoted, even if the statistics of these players are good, it will be difficult to sell them for a high price!

So Sailly is not worried about the lack of talent of these players, he is only worried about whether these players will work hard.

"I see what you mean! What you mean is that if we don't use them well, we can still sell them in the future, and there is a good chance that we won't lose money! Hugo nodded.

"That's right! Jiji, building a team is not an overnight thing, and the personnel in the team cannot remain the same! I know that according to your ideas, you can't wait for me to see through the future now, recruit all the young people with potential, and then the champion division will be completed, and you can sit back and wait for the champion! But this is impossible, first of all, as I just said, we scouts are not God, we can't see through the future, what we collect are some intuitive information revealed by players on the field, such as attention, basic skills, height, leg length, speed, psychological quality, etc., these are integrated together to analyze the potential of players, but whether they can reach their expected talent who can say clearly. Secondly, sometimes the necessary personnel turnover is a must, the players are not as docile as the players you recruit locally, they have seven emotions and six desires, have their own requirements, it is impossible to say that there is no contradiction between the team and the players, such a situation will gradually happen in the future, the solution at this time is to transfer, we make a profit, let them go, and maintain the harmony and stability of the team! "Don't look at Selly as a scout, but from these words, Hugo feels that he has found him as the right person to be the transfer director.

"I'm excited!" Hugo suddenly burst into words.

"Excited?!" Selly looked dazed, not knowing what Hugo was excited about for no reason.

"I'm glad!" Hugo said again.

"I'm excited, I'm glad! It's so wise for me to ask you to be the sports director! You're really great! Leo! Hugo grabbed Sely's hand and shook it vigorously.

"Cut! You've been treated like a god! These are the most basic principles of football management! It's not me who is the fork, it's you who should learn! Sailly replied to Hugo speechlessly, really, this truth is simply the basic quality of a football manager in his opinion.

Do you completely believe what the scouts say?! A fool would do that!

Do you believe that the players of the team are wearing good guy cards?! Only a fool would think that!
