140 Final Perfection (I)

It's much easier to purge players than to buy them, after all, the Blackburn players George is currently purging are all Premier League players.

Blackburn's results have not been good in recent years, but the strength of these players has not been questioned too much. Especially a player like Sutton, who is only twenty-five years old. It's still in peak condition, so it's not difficult to sell it at all.

George calculated that there would be absolutely no problem in recovering around £24 million from the players who purged Blackburn. In this way, George has plenty of money in his hands.

George has started to speed up the pace of transfers, and George has a lot of transfer targets at the moment. It's just that there are a lot of contacts who are reluctant to go to Blackburn.

Before the World Cup, Georges was not first approached by French players. In addition to Deco, George's first contact was Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was still in Heerenveen in the Eredivisie. Ruud van Nistelrooy excelled at Heerenveen last season, although not quite as the 'King of the Penalty Zone'. But he has already shown the quality of a central striker and has risen to the top in the Eredivisie.

Others don't know, but George does. The future "king of the small penalty area" from the Eredivisie to the Premier League, to La Liga, and the Bundesliga, the king of the road has changed over the years, and the only thing that has not changed is his goal efficiency.

In the Premier League, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Thierry Henry fought to the death for the Premier League Golden Boot, which also added more topics to the competition between Manchester United and Arsenal at that time.

The current Dutch national team has Kluivert dominating, although he is the same age, Van Nistelrooy should be regarded as a late bloomer compared to Kluivert. George immediately approached Ruud van Nistelrooy after taking over as head coach at Blackburn.

But at the same time, Eredivisie giants PSV Eindhoven also threw an olive branch to Ruud van Nistelrooy. Blackburn Rovers are still not attractive enough, Mom's, Van Nistelrooy would rather go to Eindhoven than come to Blackburn. This made George a little frustrated, and he had always thought that the Premier League was very attractive.

Forget that even in the Premier League, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool are charismatic, but it doesn't mean that Blackburn is charismatic. It seems that only by making Blackburn a Premier League powerhouse as soon as possible can we attract more players to join. After hearing that PSV Eindhoven was interested in him, Ruud van Nistelrooy immediately signed a contract with PSV Eindhoven and rejected Blackburn Rovers directly.

George had just been busy cleaning the players at the club's side when he rushed to the Netherlands. Another player in George's plan, turned down Blackburn. Unlike Ruud van Nistelrooy, he has already signed a contract with PSV Eindhoven. Blackburn Rovers and PSV Eindhoven are having some difficulty grabbing players, but now this player is just reluctant to leave his old club.

"Hello Sammy. I'm George Levy. "Although Blackburn Rovers are in the Premier League now, they are not attractive enough because of the downturn in recent years. George had to convince the players himself.

Only later did Blackburn have a good result and became a Premier League powerhouse. At that time, there will be no need for George to be so tired, there must be a bunch of players willing to come to Blackburn.

Looking at the tall man with blond hair in front of him, George stood up with a smile.

"Hello, Coach Levy." He was taken aback, he had clearly rejected Blackburn. I didn't expect the head coach of Blackburn to go to the Netherlands in person.

Looking at Sammy Hyypia with a shocked expression, George smiled. Yes, the person in front of him is the captain of Willem II, and the first foreign captain in the history of the Red Army Liverpool. George started out as a defensive coach at Burnley and certainly put a lot of emphasis on defending at Blackburn.

George needs a defensive core, a real defender. George certainly wanted to buy Stam, but it was a pity that Stam didn't like Blackburn. The other person George had in mind was Lucio of the Brazilian team, but unfortunately Lucio was not able to obtain a labor certification now. What a good backguard combination for Lucio and Hypiana.

So Hyypia George is inevitable.

"Sammy, you may not know our Blackburn history." George briefly introduced the history of Blackburn, speaking of which Blackburn, as a founding member of the football league, has not won many top league titles, including the Premier League championship in total. But in the English FA Cup, Blake had won as many as six. Of course, these are not the focus of George's introduction, which focuses on the history of Jack Walker's ownership.

George is telling Hyypia in disguise that Blackburn is not bad for money. The last time he won the Premier League, it was the result of Jack Walker's investment. Now that Jack Walker is giving generously again, Blackburn's glory is just around the corner for a while.

Of course, during the introduction, George also told Hyypia that he was a winner of the English League Cup and FA Cup. Don't worry about being young, I'm a champion coach myself.

"Sammy, since the Boseman Act, the decline of the Eredivisie has been obvious. You get to the Premier League and you can play at Blackburn Rovers. If you're looking to move to a big club, the Premier League is getting a lot of attention than the Eredivisie. And with the development of the media in England, as long as you play well, then they will not forget about you. When the time comes, you want to stay at Blackburn Rovers, or you want to move to a big club, the Premier League is the best result. "Blackburn's strength is too weak now, and his reputation is too weak.

So George could only tell him that Blackburn could be used as a springboard. But as soon as they got to Blackburn, they couldn't help it.

One of the reasons for Hyypia's hesitation is that Willem II will not be able to play with Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord, but he will also have a chance to qualify for the Europa League. But hearing George's words, I was a little moved.

Blackburn are a Premier League team, and even if they don't have good results, they can attract the attention of the giants as long as they perform well. And as George said, anything is possible in football as long as there is money.

Coupled with the presence of George, the coach, the weight of the equipment is completely imaginable.

"Coach Levy, I'll think about it." Sami Hyypia hesitated.

"Yes, Sammy. I hope you can decide a little faster and report to Blackburn. Don't delay the pre-match training camp, it's good for you to settle into the team. ”

…………

"Richard, how are you talking to Eindhoven?" After nearly a month of cooperation, although the relationship between the two is not very close. But it's much better than it was at the beginning, so the name has also changed.

"George, Denis Romedal did really well for Waalwijk last season. PSV Eindhoven don't care about one or two players, their club lacks everything, just talent. So as long as the transfer fee is sufficient, they will not stop it. ”

George nodded, PSV Eindhoven, including Ajax, are Eredivisie giants. If it had been placed before, Blackburn would not have even counted as a dish in front of them. But now it's different, and the Bosman Act has cost PSV Eindhoven and Ajax a lot. As long as there are people to poach those good players, it will be difficult for them to keep them.

"Do you have a rough idea of how much it should cost?"

Romydahl, one of Denmark's best wide runners. He can play on both the left and right, especially on the right.

"It shouldn't be very expensive, after all, Romedal just played last year. It's too young to be more than £2.5 million. ”

"Yes, Richard. You can take care of this. "Two and a half million pounds is not very expensive.

"And George, there's better news."

"Richard, don't sell off. Say, what good news. 'Richard Flynn is the head of Blackburn's transfer department and the good news he says is definitely transfers.

'Hargreaves has basically agreed to play in England, but he has some doubts. He wondered how many playing opportunities he could get? ”

"Haha...... tell him. I can't commit to a regular position, but I can give him at least 20 games. ”

The Hargreaves that George and Richard Flynn are talking about is the Canadian-born Owen Hargreaves. He is currently in Bayern Munich's youth team and has not yet been called up by Bayern Munich's first team. The call from England at this time made Hargreaves a little moved.

George likes Hargreaves, who can play well and defend. And once you become an English citizen, you are also a homegrown player. It's still free, and of course George, such a good player, won't let it go.
