Chapter 80: Transfer Discussions
"$2 million," Fan Shang replied
"Is it enough? That's a lot for some small clubs, but if we want to continue to fight on two fronts next season, or even three or four lines, I'm afraid the money is not enough. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Rohr did the math in his mind.
"I don't think it's enough, but after my hard persuasion, Mr. Chairman finally agreed with me, and all our transfer income this year can be used as funds for recruitment." Fan Shang said triumphantly.
"Okay, Fan Shang, what is your opinion on recruitment?" Several people looked at Fan Shang helplessly, and then asked Fan Shangdao.
"I haven't thought about anything else, I'm thinking about the replacement of Zizou and Richard right now. Zizou's replacement: I fancy Sparta Prague's Nedved, Richard's agent, and I think Metz's Piret is a good fit. What do you guys think? Fan Shang voiced his opinion.
"I've only heard of Nedved, I haven't seen him a few games. Piret is good and should be able to replace Richard's role. But can 2 million handle these two people? Just one pire shouldn't be cheap. Rohr asked
"Ask first, if you can take it, you can take it, and if you can't take it, try to see if you can exchange players." Fan Shang pondered for a moment and said. "What do you suggest for other locations?"
Several people fell silent again, and Fan Shang was depressed, these uncles are now their right-hand men, but every time Fan Shang asks them to give their opinions, they look at their noses and noses.
"Guys, don't you really have any player recommendations?" Fan Shang asked again
"Fan Shang, we believe in your choice." Battistone said, "I remember when I went with you to sign the young players when I was on the youth team, I don't know where you got the information, it was all gold. And Felix, I don't know where you found that kid, who almost killed Mateus two days ago. So we don't have much to say, you can just talk about the transfer, we'll just take care of the training. ”
"Okay, but Patrick, you have some connections in France, and if there is any problem, I will need you to intervene." Fan Shangke didn't want to let these people sit idle, "It's the same with Gernot and Klaus, if I want to bring in reinforcements from Germany, I have to rely on the two of you." ”
A few people nodded, and Fan Shang was helpless, "Okay, I'm going to go to the transfer department, let them ask about the transfer of these two players." ”
After leaving the house, Vincent walked to François's office, knocked on the door and entered, and sat down across from François.
"François, now the two of us should work together." Fan Shang said with a smile.
"Of course, Fan Shang, do you have anything to do now?" François asked.
"I want to get two transfers in front of the Euros, one is Nedved for Sparta Prague and the other is Piret for Metz. Go and ask first, and give me a letter in the afternoon. Fan Shang made his own request.
"Okay, no problem, I'll do it right away, do you have anything else?" François asked again
"By the way, also, keep an eye on Dugarry's transfer, hurry up and send him away, and take advantage of the high price at this time. If I can sell the two players I need before I bring them in, maybe it will be easier for him to bring them in. Vincent couldn't wait to get Dugarry away.
"Okay, by the way, Vincent, we just received an offer from Montpellier for one of our players." François suddenly seemed to remember something.
"Who?" Fan Shang asked curiously
"William. Prunier," François replied
"It's Mr. Prunier," Fan smiled teasingly, "I remember he didn't go to Manchester United?" Why are you going to Montpellier again? ”
'Prunier was at Manchester United for three months and then he knew you didn't like him, so he contacted FC Copenhagen in Denmark and then went on loan for another three months. Now it's almost due again, so he's starting to figure out a way for himself. François recounted Prunier's experience in the past six months
"His experience is quite tortuous, so how much does Montpellier offer?" Vincent wants to know the price, as this could be his first first-team transfer.
"1,000,000 francs"
"It's so shabby, but Mr. Prunier has also played for big clubs like Marseille and Manchester United. The asking price is 5 million francs, and the minimum is 2 million francs. Fan Shang thought for a while and said
"Is there anything else you want?"
"No, I'm going to the hospital and see our captain. Call me in the afternoon as soon as there is news. Vincent said goodbye to François and drove to the hospital.
In the hospital, Fan Shang closed the door and talked with Lizarazu for half an hour, and finally Fan Shang left the hospital with a smile on his face. In fact, the conversation with Lizarazu was not as smooth as Fan Shang's expression just now. Lizarazu wanted to leave at first, but not for money or higher honors, but for the fulfillment of his childhood dream. As a Basque player, what is his dream since childhood, of course, is to join Athletic Bilbale, and Lizarazu is no exception, he wants to play for Athletic Bilbale.
When Fan Shang heard Lizarazu say this, he began to persuade him bitterly, wanting to stabilize the team, then from Fan Shang's personal needs, and from Lizarazu's honor, and finally wasted all his efforts to retain Lizarazu. Fan Shang also knew that this should only be temporary, and Lizarazu would definitely have to leave at that time, "Forget it, let's take one step at a time." Although Fan Shang came out of the hospital with a smile on his face, he was also a little bitter in his heart.
After coming out of the hospital, Fan Shang originally wanted to go home, but he received a call from François in the middle of the car, and after hanging up the phone, Fan Shang quickly turned around and rushed back to the club.
"François, did they really ask for the price?" Fan Shang asked anxiously.
"Yes, the fax is here," François handed a fax sheet of paper to Vincent.
Vincent looked at the fax paper, which showed AC Milan's request for Dugarry's price. Fan Shang took this inquiry and thought for a while, then spoke. 'Reply to them, Dugarry is a good player in our academy and we have no intention of selling him.
"What do you mean, aren't you going to sell Dugarry in the morning?" François was puzzled
"Hehe, that's what you don't know about the big clubs. The more active you are, the lower the price will be, and the more you say that it is not for sale, the more they will grab, not only to grab, but also to pay a high price to grab. Fan Shang's smile was a little obscene, "So we have to hang their appetite, but also in moderation, I think the reserve price of Dugarry should be 3 million US dollars, of course, the more the better." ”
'You really shouldn't be a coach, if you have a club it would be great.' François said with some pity.
"Don't say it's useless, I don't want to bother, I'm still more interested in coaching." Vincent waved his hand, "By the way, what happened to Nedved and Pire, who asked you?" ”
"There is no letter from Prague, but Metz has replied, and they are asking for 8 million francs." François said
Fan Shang frowned after hearing this, "8 million francs, our $2 million transfer funds are converted into francs and about 9 million, and now we have to spend 8 million to buy Pire, isn't it a little expensive?" ”
"Now that the transfer rights of the club are in your hands, you said that we can start negotiations immediately."
'Well, can we bring in Pire in the form of a player swap. I think Metz should be looking for a spare tire for Pire, and try to add Castertan to the deal. Fan Shang came up with an idea to save money.
François nodded, picked up the phone and instructed the people in the transfer department to get up and running. Vincent then began chatting with François, waiting for the news of the transfer.
At this time, the phone on Francois's desk rang, and François picked it up, said a few words, and then buckled the phone.
"Fan Shang, now there are two good news and one bad news, what do you listen to first?"
"Bad"
"Well, you listen to the bad first every time. Metz didn't want Casteltan. ”
"Okay?"
"The first one is that AC Milan made a bid for $1 million for Dugarry. The second is that Metz doesn't have a crush on Casteltan, but they feel they will be happy if they add Istirol to the deal. ”
