Section 268 Tens of millions of reinforcements
When Gao Shunyao told Li Ze about the team's decision, he thought that he was revealing a big secret of the team to Li Ze. Follow? Dream? Small? .com. Fastest update access: . However, what he didn't know was that Li Ze had already heard a lot of rumors about this. Wolves will have to 'spend' money to rebuild the team this winter, and for the Wolves players, they will need to wait for the team to make a final confirmation of the 'sex' news, but for those outside of Wolfsburg, this speculation has long been flying.
Of course, rumors are not accurate, but many times, rumors arise for a reason. Wolfsburg are still in the rebuilding process and their results have improved a lot after the summer rebuild. Now, they are fifth in the league, and Wolfsburg is not short of money, and the coach is Magath, who is known for his love of transfers - with this information, it is not difficult to guess that they want to buy someone this winter.
In fact, Wolfsburg's actions were fast, which also confirmed the rumors. Just when Gao Shunyao was still receiving Li Ze, Wolfsburg's first transfer this winter had been finalized.
Wolfsburg in the winter, the first finalised move was at their left-back. In this position, Friedrich is getting older day by day, and Wolfsburg is indeed in need of reinforcements, and their transfer has the least problems.
Wolfsburg in the winter quickly agreed to bring in Brazilian left-back Ricardo. Rodriguez-related matters, the player is worth 7.5 million, and after the winter, he will also report to the team immediately. Although, he may not be able to become the main force of the team in the short term. But for the foreseeable future, he will also be one of the main members of the team.
In contrast, it is Helmos's transfer that has dragged on a lot.
After the news of Helmos' want to transfer was released. Some teams in the Bundesliga and the Premier League have begun to actively contact him and want to bring him in.
His strength is more than enough as a main player, and now he can't play at Wolfsburg, and he can't sell it for a high price, at this time. It couldn't have been more fitting to bring him in.
Wolfsburg has been negotiating his transfer. Because he is not very happy to go abroad. Therefore, the 'trade' is also more troublesome. Now the closest to success is his former club Cologne. However, this 'transaction' was not immediately determined. Because Wolfsburg's first game in the second half of the season was against Cologne, Wolfsburg was not interested in finding himself unhappy.
This transfer. Even if the transfer is finalized until January 31, it may not be impossible.
Halmos is leaving, and the team naturally has to bring in reinforcements. And because the team has finalized Gao Shunyao and Mandzukic as the team's main forwards, they are also looking for substitutes for this player.
It's just that this one person has not been agreed on by the team for a long time. Both Ko and Mandzukic have high attendance, which makes their replacements not so easy to find. Moreover, Gao Shunyao also heard that the Croatian veteran, whose contract is about to expire next summer, may not renew his contract with Bayern. Wolfsburg also seems to have the intention of wooing him, promising the position for next year, therefore. Substitutes for this half season are even more difficult to find.
Of course, a big reason why it is difficult to find is because they are reluctant to pay money: Wolfsburg has 'spent' 7.5 million on this winter's transfer. They also want to save some money to live, and they don't dare to be so extravagant.
As Gao Shunyao and Li Ze said. After losing to Dort 'Monde', Wolfsburg also wanted to save some money and buy a really big-name player, whose money could not afford to be wasted. The core organization players and wing players are not cheap, they don't 'spend' tens of millions, and they can't buy good players.
The final decision of Wolfsburg is still to bring in wide players first, and then consider the organizational core of the middle.
There is a certain amount of truth in this consideration: first, Wolfsburg does not want to disrupt the atmosphere within the team this season, and now the young players of the team are rising rapidly, and the old players are making way for the bench, and everyone is very tacitly cooperative, that is because the players who have been taken out of the position are not young. Whether it is Josue or Misimovic, they are not enough to play the main team, so naturally there is no objection, and the only one who has the ability to play assistant but the position is topped Helmos, chose to leave without hesitation.
No matter how harmonious the team is, the players will not back down on many issues of principle. If it is not handled well, it will cause contradictions.
In contrast, if a midfielder is introduced, it will inevitably be a battle with Makoto Hasebe for the main position. Makoto Hasebe is in okay shape now, although he really can't play the role of the core of the organization, but his task is done very well, let him give way, which is also easy to cause unnecessary disputes in the team.
Halfway through the season, the results are not bad, and it doesn't do the team any good to make an awkward time at this time. This season is different from last season, Wolfsburg has its own performance baggage, and naturally does not want to make any more 'mess'.
In contrast, bringing in wide players will be much less troublesome. Salihamidzic may be just as wicked as he is, but his age is there. He himself has said that he will hang up his boots after this season, and he will definitely have no objection to the emergence of a person to replace him: especially in the second half of the season, his physical strength may not be able to withstand it, and having a substitute is not necessarily a bad thing.
And the newly introduced players will not compete with him for a position in the future: if he adapts to the Bundesliga for half a season, he will definitely be the main player in the future, and I am afraid that no one can refuse such a thing. There is no point in competing for a place with an old man who is almost unable to kick, and everyone can understand that.
Bringing in players in this position will not cause unnecessary problems in the team. And if you really need to change a player in the middle position, you can wait until the end of this season: Makoto Hasebe's age, at most one or two more seasons to play the main team, wait until the end of this season to find a replacement for him, and then rotate in the name of tactics, he can also accept, this way to treat meritorious players, it is also kind.
Therefore, Wolfsburg decided to introduce the side lane first. And this request, Magath could not object. Makoto Hasebe is his old subordinate after all, and he can't be too harsh on his old subordinates.
It's just that who to introduce in this position and how to introduce it is also a big problem.
According to Wolfsburg's idea, the best thing is, of course, to bring in local players - Wolfsburg has too many foreign players, and the number of local players is the first in the Bundesliga, which is something that many people have complained about, and it is of course best if you can buy local players.
But the problem is that this idea is not satisfied: where did the top German master come from willing to come to Wolfsburg?
Germany is not without outstanding masters, but Gotze naturally does not need to say that Dort 'Monde' holds him as the core, what more can Wolfsburg provide him? And if you want to talk about other 'outstanding' players, the 'goal' Reus also plays very well, but people are already the people who are favored by the giants, so why come to Wolfsburg?
If there is really that kind of player, it will not be Wolfsburg's turn to receive it, because Wolfsburg's money is not enough.
On the football field, the most expensive thing is the skill of the players. A top strong player does not have good enough skills, and may be able to rely on his physical fitness to earn himself more than 10 million, but a top technical player is worth 20 million even if his physical condition is poor. The better the technique, the more expensive the player, on the football field, is a convention.
It's no surprise that wide players are not easy to bring in. The wings are not as good as the defensive players, and the skills required are the highest, and the players are the most valuable. Although the team also 'spent' blood money for reinforcements this time, saying that it was going to make more than 10 million reinforcements, but what is the price of 10 million in the position of the wing?
To say that the value of a wide player like Ronaldo is to destroy the market balance, but among the young players, Belgium's Eden Hazard, Brazil's Lucas Jr., Chile's Sanchez, and Britain's Bale, which of these players can be won with a value of 10 million?
Of course, even if some teams don't have enough money, they can find good enough players because the team's coach is attractive. However, Wolfsburg has no advantage in this regard. The attractiveness of the German team itself is worse than that of La Liga in the Premier League, and the fourth place, Hannover and Arsenal, is not at all attractive. Although Wolfsburg is also one of the teams in the upper middle of the Bundesliga rankings, their attraction itself is very limited, Wolfsburg is a small city, and it is destined to be difficult to bring in top players.
Not enough money, not enough fame, these problems are the biggest problems when a weak team wants to step forward to a strong team. How to attract players who really 'shine' is a problem that many teams can't think of.
Fortunately, Wolfsburg's luck seems to be good this time, and they have actually found a player who wants to transfer this winter.
Aranda in Turkey. Turan, who wants a transfer this winter.
Aranda. The player is a Turk. His best position is on the left wing, but he can also make do with it on the right and in the middle. His technical characteristics are completely different from Perisic's. His 'shooting' and 'goal' skills are not 'outstanding', and the passing level can only be said to be average, but he has good ball control at his feet and delicate skills, but he is all praised.
His fame is very big in Turkey, and his skills have always been praised by the media. In fact, in the summer, he had already 'revealed' his intention to transfer, and Atletico Madrid had also contacted him at that time, hoping that he could play in La Liga. Unfortunately, the 'deal' at that time could not be negotiated in the end, Atletico Madrid because of the summer to buy Diego 'spending' too much, there were some problems with the funds, and finally failed to successfully bring him in, so that he is still in Turkey.
And Wolfsburg's transfer this time is to take a fancy to him.
Wolfsburg didn't have much of an advantage over La Liga, but Atletico retracted, which allowed Wolfsburg to seize the opportunity. In the Bundesliga, there are a lot of Turkish players, and it is easier for the Turk to adapt to the Bundesliga, so if he does come here, it may be really good news.
In this way, it was really right to sell Diego to Atletico Madrid in the summer. q
