The transfers of Lichtsteiner and Juanfran are going well, and Bracewell sent an email saying that the negotiations with Juanfran have reached the final step, and Juventus has not opened his mouth widely, as long as the club can make an offer of no less than 10 million euros, the Swiss international can be taken away, and Lichtsteiner does not have excessive requirements in terms of salary, as long as he maintains his weekly salary of 100,000 pounds at Juventus.

Now that both Lichtsteiner and Juanfran could move to Sunderland with the nod of Nanshaw's head, it was a bit of a surprise to him, given the strength of both players, and it was a bit difficult for him to make a clear choice.

Nan Xiao also discussed this thorny issue with You Lu and Chen Mingshuo, but they couldn't give him good advice, after all, the two players are very close in strength, and their abilities and roles in the team are almost the same.

After thinking about it for a long time, Nan Xiao also looked at the relevant information of the two players repeatedly, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to introduce Champion Madrid's Spaniard Juanfrán; There are three reasons, one is that Nan Xiao prefers Spanish players, the second is that Juanfran will be relatively stronger in the impact ability on the side, and the third is that the strength of Atletico Madrid in recent years is also obvious to all, although they have lost to the rival Real Madrid in the Champions League final twice, but their excellent performance still won the applause of fans all over the world, especially in the 1314 season, they broke the monopoly of La Liga duo Barcelona and Real Madrid on the La Liga championship for ten consecutive years, It is even more impressive, and even some fans have listed Atletico Madrid as the fourth strongest team in Europe after "Real Sarena", and at the same time, Juanfran has been able to occupy the position of the team's main right wing-back also proves his good strength.

So after Draxler's confirmation of joining, Sunderland FC quickly officially announced the transfer of Spaniard Juanfran Flan Ran, and overnight the major media rushed to report on this transfer without warning. There are also media predictions that Sunderland could even become serious contenders for a Champions League place in the second half of the season, with only eight points separating them from the top four, so anything could happen.

Braitwell and Shen Chao also returned to the club after the dust settled on Juanfran's transfer talks, and Nan Xiao was also very humane in giving the two of them a three-day long vacation.

After finishing their transfer matters, Nan Xiao once again returned to the weekend's upcoming league fixture, three days later, at 7.30pm this Saturday, they will be away to Crystal Palace, who are currently fourth from bottom in the table.

If Sunderland can win the game against Crystal Palace, then they are likely to return to seventh place in the table, because Leicester City and Stoke City, who are currently in front of them, will face strong Chelsea and Manchester City respectively in this round, so Sunderland only need to win, there is a good chance that they can overtake Leicester City to be in seventh place, which is a golden opportunity for Nan Xiao to get a good position before the arrival of Draxler and Juanfran That could play a crucial role in their development in the second half of the season, so Nan Xiao is also thinking about how to take away the precious three points from Crystal Palace's home stadium.

Benteke's transfer from Liverpool in the new season to help Crystal Palace is obvious, as a center forward with strong header ability and the ability to hold the ball with his back, Bentekeke's contribution to Crystal Palace on the offensive side is quite huge, 16 games 6 goals and 5 assists The performance also makes fans happy with the Belgian striker, and at the same time, as an opponent, Nan Xiao also has to focus on restricting Benteke, whether it is in the first point of protection, or in the defense of set-pieces, he must not be able to easily get the ball.

Nan Xiao kept thinking in front of the tactical board, especially in the position of central defender, repeatedly replaced, the current team has four central defenders, due to Kolo Toure's disadvantage in terms of height, Nan Xiao excluded him from the starting lineup at the beginning, and at the same time in Kirchhoff, Koné, and O'Shea three wandering, after all aspects of consideration, Nan Xiao finally chose Koné and Kirchhoff's central defender combination, O'Shea's lack of strength in the confrontation made Nan Xiao can only let him continue to sit on the bench.

'It looks like there needs to be more reinforcements at centre-back. Nan Xiao patted his forehead helplessly, it is really a person who hates it when he uses it.

"Amy, ask Houston to come to my office." Nan Xiao and Amy connected.

"Okay, Coach." Amy replied.

Nan Xiao put down the phone and returned to the tactical board, continuing to ponder the candidates for other positions, because the overall strength of the opponent is not very strong, so Elveti will still appear in the position of the back midfield, Dokal is still a cameo left midfielder, and after Draxler comes to the club in the second half of the season, Dokal will rarely appear in this position again, and because Carlos's recent excellent performance will firmly occupy the other side, so Dokal is more likely to compete with Halilovic in the middle position, This is also what Nan Xiao is happy to see, and the healthy competition within the team will also avoid the slack of players.

"Dangdangdang."

"Please come in."

"Coach, are you looking for me?" Houston pushed open the office door and walked in to Nan Xiao.

"Well, Houston, sit down first." Nan Xiao smiled and led Houston to the couch and sat down.

"Houston, I'd like to ask you to put together a list of central defenders for the team within a week, can you?" Nan Xiao asked Houston.

"Well, no problem, do you have any specific requirements?"

"There are only two requirements, one must be combat power, and the other must be above 185 in height."

"Well, then I know the coach." Houston jaw first.

"By the way, Houston, you arrange for your scouts, who are more familiar with the South American league, to inspect the players, and you remember my requirements."

"Well, okay, you wait a minute." Houston pulled the notebook out of the folder, "Please say." ”

"Well, what I'm asking for is a promising future star, in a central midfield, with fine feet, good vision, a good sense of teamwork and, most importantly, the ability to move forward with the ball, if you want to do that...... Andres Iniesta or David Silva! Nan Xiao thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, Coach, how long are you going to spend on this expedition?"

"Until the end of the season."

"Well, knowing the coach, I'll arrange it as soon as possible." Houston replied.

Scouting teams are very important to a club, and Southampton in the Premier League has done a particularly good job, selling several of the season's main players at the end of each season, among which Liverpool almost half of the main team is now from this "hometown" team, such as Lovren, Lallana, Klein and Senegalese international "Black Whirlwind" Mane, who has been newly promoted this season, and Wanyama, who is now playing at Tottenham, as well as England talent Luke Shaw and Iron Waist Schneiderlin, who transferred to Manchester United; However, despite the emergence of so many key players, Southampton's strength has not been reduced at all, and a strong scouting system can allow them to quickly fill the void left by the departure of key players, such as Raymond, who brought in from the Championship side this season, and successfully filled Mane's former position.

So Nan Xiao is also trying to find some excellent scouts, but he slowly found that good players may be able to find them with some thought, but good scouts are not so easy to find.

After Houston left, it was time for Nan Xiao to get off work, although he could go home from work at any time, but in order to maintain his usual self-discipline, he required himself to leave the club at least after 5 o'clock every day, of course, if there were special circumstances, he could also leave early.

Shen Chao didn't go to work today, so there were only two people on Lamborghini, he and Chen Mingshuo, Nan Xiao also briefly revealed Monday's ball to Chen Mingshuo in the car, Chen Mingshuo was a little surprised at first, but when he thought of being able to get close to many of his favorite stars, that little surprise was all turned into excitement.
