While Thierry Henry and Trezeguet, two of his teammates who were selected for the French youth team at the same time as Gallas, began to make their mark at the '98 World Cup, Gallas worked in obscurity in Ligue 1 until 2002, when Ranieri was recruited to the Blues. At this time, Gallas was still an underrated all-round defender, although he could play from left to right at the back.

Unlike Terry, Gallas is not his own child who came out of the Chelsea Academy, so when he had a showdown with the club and wanted to transfer, Mr. Bates's reaction was very cold, and as for the new owner Abu who also heard some rumors, he probably only dug his ears and felt that the name was a little unfamiliar, and in the eyes of the Bear tycoon, the good defenders in the world can be smashed with money, and there is no need to worry about no one available.

The only one in a hurry is the Blues' head coach, Uncle Ranieri.

So, on a rare sunny afternoon, Ranieri met with Gallas in a humble London café in the hope of retaining the French defender with the good news that Chelsea were about to welcome a new local boss. Unexpectedly, Uncle Ranieri was targeted by the ubiquitous British paparazzi as soon as he went out, and after a series of difficult candid shots, a genius who was proficient in lip language actually read a news that shocked the whole of England from these dozens of photos.

There is a local tyrant who is not bad for money and is negotiating to buy Chelsea!

For a while, everyone in the Premier League team was in danger, and everyone knew that a rich man from outside squeezed into the Premier League and wanted to gain a foothold here, and he would inevitably increase investment in the first few seasons.

As a result, the original ragged player transactions suddenly accelerated, and the originally procrastinating player contract renewal issue also became more rhythmic, and later this rush to buy and sign even swept the entire European continent.

First, Inter Milan brought Wizard Veron back to Serie A for 25 million euros.

Immediately afterwards, the old lord almost went in and out, and used this transfer fee to snatch the Roman rock Samoel.

Professor Arsene Wenger, who basically finalized the swap between Seedorf and Ljungberg, recruited Wright Phillips for £9 million in accordance with his usual "Zhengtaikong" characteristics.

And the Galaxy Battleship has also accelerated the progress of negotiations to attract "heartthrobs" on board......

Finally, on July 1, the news of the arrival of Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich at Stamford Bridge spread throughout the British Isles and then spread to the entire European continent, and when the Blues' fax with a series of jaw-dropping figures put the offer on the desks of the major giants, these club managers, who had been in a somewhat lively mood before, noticed the cold sweat breaking out of their backs!

£50 million for Nesta - Galliani wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and hung up the phone on Jiang Qi.

"Oh, Chelsea's offer? The legendary wealthy Russian businessman has entered the market...... By the way, which players have they taken now? Jiang Qi is so busy these days that he has basically lost his attention to the outside world," Joe Cole, Duff, Crespo...... Well, eh, Veron went to the house next door? ”

"Yes, the deal was made very quickly, without warning, without even ...... opportunity to raise the price," said Galliani, who was visibly frustrated.

"Oh, a little thing, by the way, in the first game of the pre-season warm-up game, try to let Chelsea, who is not bad for money, be our opponent, by the way, inform Mr. Chairman, let him invite that Abu tyrant to watch the game, I don't think it will be difficult for him, right?" , Jiang Qi pinched his chin.

Galliani wondered: "Let the new owner of Chelsea come to watch the game? ”

"That's right!" , Jiang Qi snapped his fingers, "I think he will definitely agree." ”

……

AC Milan have 26 players back in their first-team squad.

Tomasson and Laursen both moved to the Premier League, with Borriello and Donati Chiangchi considering continuing on loan.

Pancaro returned, Clayton was delegated to the youth team, and Redondo, the legendary midfielder, re-signed a one-year contract with a base salary after some communication with the coaching staff, and joined the coaching staff with the team to prepare for the transfer.

As for Brockie, the all-round substitute in midfield, he was retained at the suggestion of Tasotti and Caxchini, both of whom have many years of experience in Serie A and know the importance of human resources.

Now the only embarrassing position in the team is the brick-faced Rivaldo, of course, Jiang Qi has already chosen the next home for him, and he will see if Shi Yu'er will take the bait.

The regrouping of the team has brought Milanello back to popularity, but for those players who have enjoyed a good holiday, accustomed to the beach, good food and hot girls, it is a bad omen for pulling into the Milan laboratory for an all-round carpet search.

Of course, for Jiang Qi, nervousness and other emotions are unavoidable, because he has to really face a group of stars who can only be seen on TV screens, but there is not much time left for him to be nervous, and the meeting gifts for every player in the team are not ready......

The next day, the wind was mild, the sky was clear, and Mr. Tasotti called the players who were soothing and talking about each other's holidays at the training ground, and they saw a scene that will be unforgettable in their lives.

The new head coach walked in front with two red eyes like rabbits, followed by staff from four clubs, each holding a stack of bundled documents.

Someone walked up to the player and just wanted to introduce himself seriously and activate his two-point majesty, but he couldn't help but yawn, and tears flowed out of his red eyes...... Jiang Qi only felt that he might really have the talent to transform into an embarrassed uncle with this face, so he slapped his head and said to himself, "Hey, I forgot to bring sunglasses!" ”

It is rumored that Tony Towne has embarked on the road of the godfather of the championship with a pair of sunglasses, and a certain Mr. Rice Bucket has also won the reputation of an undefeated madman with a pair of sunglasses, but unfortunately such an important prop was forgotten by Jiang Qi in the office, and more importantly, he forgot to adjust the volume of his self-talk, so that the players in front of him could hear it clearly.

Listening to the slightly kind laughter of these uncles, who were much more mature than him in terms of age and appearance, Jiang Qi rolled his eyes helplessly, and wailed unwillingly in his heart, "The special debut performance is ...... smashed"

However, what surprised him was that none of the bridges of playing big names, throwing tantrums, challenging authority, and bullying newcomers showed up, but he didn't know that this was because Galliani was working in private, and almost before the team's first training, the players received calls from Tasottti, or from Baresi, or from Costacuta, or from Old Brother and Little Brother, etc., who had a good personal relationship and played an important role in the club, and had some greetings in advance.

Besides, there is neither a player with a surname like Ibrahimovic nor a second-year teenager like Cassano in the Milan team, and there may be distrust, but there will definitely be no one who jumps out and throws white gloves as soon as they meet.

After a slightly embarrassing opening, Jiang Qi completely let go, and with a wave of his right hand, the four staff members behind him sent the documents in their arms to each player according to the names indicated on the label.

From the time they entered the Milan laboratory to the first training camp today, the interval was no more than 48 hours, and in such a short period of time, the team designed a training plan and advice for each player, which is amazing. At this time, when the players who got the technical documents with their names looked at Jiang Qi again, they couldn't help but become serious, and the eyes that were as red as rabbits were the best proof.

"This kid doesn't look bad!" , they thought.
