Chapter 687 The transfer battle that has attracted the attention of the whole Europe
readx;
The joining of Batistuta has once again thrown a bombshell into the Serie A league, which was already slightly chaotic due to the strong rise of Inter Milan!
Gabriel Batistuta!!
This man's name, in the Apennines, is an insurmountable legend!
Along with the shocking [Barty goal], [God of War] once wrote a moving story here that can make fans hard-hearted, and tears in an instant - in 1991, Barty, who was still an innocent boy at the time, landed in Serie A, known as the small World Cup, joined the Purple Lily Fiorentina, and scored 13 goals in the first season, making the world have a preliminary image of this boy called Gabriel for the first time!
However, at the end of that season, Purple Lily Fiorentina was unfortunately relegated to the second division due to various internal and external troubles. For Florenrosa www.biquge.info it is definitely a gray and embarrassing memory, the high-paid star in the team, when the purple lily faced a dilemma, chose to go away, which made countless Florencosa fans sad and crying!
However, it was also at this time that the Purple Lily harvested the greatest striker in the team's history - Gabriel Batistuta, the king of the Purple Lily! Faced with the pursuit of super giants such as AC Milan and Manchester United, Barty surprisingly chose to stay at Florenrosa!
This moved countless fans to tears.
The following year, the Fiorentina soldiers united under the leadership of Barty and returned to the [Small World Cup] as the champion of the second division, and Barty also used his own goals in that year to gradually become the symbol of the purple lily!
In the first year of returning to the first division, Barty not only became the top scorer in the Italian Serie A with 25 goals, but also scored in 11 consecutive rounds, breaking the record of 10 consecutive goals set by the Pologna team Pasti in the 1962~1963 season. As a result, the momentum sank, and the astonishing "Batty goal" sounded on the green field. In 1996, Barty won the Italian FA Cup and Super Cup for Fiorentina. Excited Florentine fans even paid out of their own pockets to erect a statue of Barty in the city, and the Florentine era Barty worshipped him as the object of worship, and Barty became the "King of the Purple Lilies", and his personal prestige and career reached its peak.
In the 99~00 season, in Fiorentina's 1:1 draw with Juventus, Barty scored the equalizer, thus breaking the record held by Swede Hamlin for nearly half a century and becoming the top scorer in the history of the Fiorentina team. However, due to the limitations of Fiorentina's own strength, Barty does not have many opportunities to participate in European competitions, but as long as he has the opportunity, Barty can always prove that he is the best No.1 in front of European giants, whether it is Barcelona, Manchester United or Arsenal, they have left a shocking "Barty goal". It's a pity that Barty has too few platforms to show his skills to the world, and he has long been the top scorer in Serie A, and he is even struggling to win a Serie A title. The president of the Inter Milan team, Moratti, once said: "This unruly young man will definitely know in the future that loyalty will make him lose the world footballer." ”
Nine years may be just a small part of life for ordinary people.
But nine years for a professional footballer, maybe that's all he has.
Parting is always sad, and Barty, who is no longer young, finally made up his mind to leave Fiorentina in order to realize his dream of becoming a champion, despite the misunderstanding, hostility and even resentment among Fiorentina fans. But Barty is acutely aware that his career will soon be coming to an end, and he doesn't want to retire without a trophy he has been fighting for for 10 years. On May 14, 2000, Batty's last game for Fiorentina, he scored a hat-trick against Venezia and the Florentines stood for their hero for the last time...... In the summer of 2000, Barty chose to join the Red Wolves Roma team!
"Roma Sport" even used the title of "His Majesty the King Comes to Rome" to welcome the arrival of the [God of War], burdened with the resentment of the Purple Lily fans, Barty fought for the ultimate dream of his career at the Rome Olympic Stadium, November 26, 2000, Rome challenged Fiorentina away, and [Barty goal] appeared in this stadium again before the field, but Barty did not cheer or celebrate after the goal, he just stood fixedly, buried his face deep in his hands and long hair, Let the tears slip from between, for the sake of the son who once fought side by side...... Perhaps, Lianshang Yanjing was moved by this loyal man!
On June 17, 2001, when the Roma team formed a stalemate with the Parma team in the final round, it was [Barty goal] that decided the outcome of the game and the league championship!
It was perhaps the most memorable goal of Barty's career!
He opened his arms and ran frantically towards the stands, like an eagle in the Andes, and the whole city of Rome was completely boiling, and the crazy Roma fans even stripped off the jerseys of their heroes to celebrate...... This is the best memory left by a generation of [God of War] to the Serie A league!
It was also the pinnacle of his career!
He was then called upon by Moratti to join Inter Milan and don the blue-and-black shirt at the Meazza Stadium. However, Batistuta's blue-black career is not smooth, because of injuries and the decline in old age, it is difficult for the twilight [God of War] to play the main force in the star-studded [Blue River Army], although the talented Moratti has repeatedly retained, but Barty finally chose to leave!
The 2002 World Cup is the last back left by a generation of [God of War] to fans around the world!
In the final game of the group stage against Sweden, Argentina was stubbornly held to a 1-1 draw by their opponents, and finally eliminated in the group stage...... The shattered [God of War] burst into tears on the court, and although Barty's teammates were also saddened in this game, Barty was definitely the saddest one among them. Because he knows that they all still have a chance, but he has always had the dream of the World Cup, but he no longer has ...... Even Shen Bing, the beautiful host of CCTV, who has been participating in the live broadcast, was moved to tears!
In 2003, after completing a short contract with Inter Milan, he and the [God of War] left the Qatar League, where they enjoyed the last two years of football, and announced their retirement in March 2005. His retirement also marks the end of the 20-year superstar era of Argentine football pioneered by Maradona!
Such a man has taken loyalty to the extreme!
Such a man deserves to be remembered forever by the fans and media of the Apennine Peninsula!
Now, God of War is back!
The whole Apennines are boiling!
Although he is no longer able to gallop on the green field, and can no longer bring them the shocking [Batty goal], for many fans, as long as they can see this man on the sidelines of a football game, it is also happy!
Lee Tong-fan remembers that when he told Moratti about Barty as his assistant coach, the old man actually jumped up with joy, his face full of excitement and anticipation. At one time, Moratti brought countless world-class strikers to Inter Milan, Ronaldo, Vieri, Barty, Adriano...... The old man treated them as if they were his own sons, but in the end Ronaldo left, Vieri left, Adriano fell after a brief spell at the top, and Batistuta did not play at Inter at all...... This time it was a deep pain in Moratti's heart!
Now, the wanderer has returned!
How could Moratti not be happy?
For him, this is a great opportunity to make up for his regrets!
In the past, he didn't get the best [God of War], but now he can get Batistuta with a member of the World Cup-winning coaching staff, isn't this the best gift God has given to the [Nerazzurri]? Looking at the madman Li smiling proudly in front of him, Moratti suddenly felt that since this guy moved into Meazza, he seemed to be able to usher in good news every day, and this feeling was even more reassuring and comfortable than when [madman] Mourinho was in charge last season!
…… For the arrival of Batistuta, Inter Milan adopted a strong welcome ceremony.
Palazzo Durini held a press conference for this purpose.
Moratti was in attendance.
Barty's huge popularity attracted more than 100 journalists from all over the world to attend the press conference, although the number is a little smaller than the previous joining of Gareth Bale and others, but this has already set a record for a retired player, not to mention that Barty only joined as an 'assistant coach', what assistant coach can enjoy such treatment?
When the [God of War] put the blue and black robe in Moratti's hands after 7 years, once again put it on his body, although the years have changed the man's face, but some of the veteran reporters present are still full of emotion, as if time has gone backwards, everything is back to the original press conference, the God of War at that time...... "[God of War] His Majesty Descends to Meacha!" 》
This is a report made by the Milan sports newspaper on the signing of Batistuta, and the article expressed a positive attitude towards Batty's joining, after all, Batty is a member of the winning coaching staff of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and he is very skilled in working with Crazy Lee, they believe that this is a positive sign that Inter Milan is gradually getting back on track! ’
Unlike Lee Tong-beom, who came to Serie A a month ago, he encountered a lot of hatred.
For Batty's arrival, in addition to "Milan Sports Newspaper", "Torino Sports Newspaper", "Roma Sports Newspaper", "Media Network", "First Audiovisual" and other newspapers have expressed their welcome to Batistuta at the same time, and some fans of Florenca and Roma have also left messages on the website to express their excitement about the return of the iconic idol of the entire Serie A league in the past!
Of course, it was only a welcome to Barty himself.
As for whether Barty's arrival can increase Inter Milan's chances of winning the championship, most of the media chose to wait and see, compared with the huge fame of the team era, Barty as a coach does not seem to have handed over too convincing results, he did accompany the [Blue and White] to win the Hercules Cup last summer, but everyone understands that it is the credit of the madman Lee!
…… January 10th.
Massimino Stadium.
The 19th round of Serie A kicked off here.
The Nerazzurri played away against the mid-table team Catania, and the crazy Lee who was in the suspension period still watched the whole game in the box under the supervision of two FIFA officials, but the difference is that the temporary acting coach standing on the sidelines in this game changed from Giuseppe Baresi to Batistuta!
Some die-hard Nerazzurri held up banners in the stands - "Gabriel, welcome back to Inter!" ”
Despite the short time in [Nerazzurri] Charly, there are still many Nerazzurri who are crazy about Barty, which is actually a very normal thing in the Apennines, he is the idol of men!
Inter Milan opted for a 4-1-2-1-2-2 formation with both wings flying together for this game.
[Chilean C-Ronaldo] Sanchez, who was in a godlike state in the last game, continued to start, and Gareth Bale, who did not perform well, unexpectedly entered the starting lineup, and formed the wings of the [Nerazzurri] with Sanchez. On the front line, it is still [Cameroon Cheetah] Eto'o and Diego Milito, and [Angel] Gigi, who scored a hat trick, is still sitting on the bench!
Inter Milan went on a stormy attack within 90 minutes.
In the end, Catania was swept 5:0.
Diego Milito and Samuel Eto'o each scored a goal for Alexis Sanchez for his first time at Inter Milan, a spectacular long-distance run that Catania's weak backline couldn't stop the whirlwind of Sanchez...... Centre-back Samuel scored with a header from a corner, but he fell to the ground after scoring and injured his arm and was replaced by teenager Ranozia!
The last goal for Inter Milan was substitute [Angel] Gigi!
The mixed-race rice bucket relied on goal-based shots and scored in two consecutive games.
Welsh youngster Gareth Bale was average, with a slightly lower success rate in his break-and-roll and crosses, but a couple of free-kicks threatened Catania's goal...... However, Inter Milan didn't buy him to score a free kick, you must know that there are super free kick masters like Sneijder in the team!
"'God' sent 'God of War' to punish Catania! 》
Milan Sports summed up the game with such comments, the first cooperation between [God on the side of the football field] Madman Lee and [God of War] Barty was obviously successful, compared with Baresi, Barty and Madman Lee's cooperation is much more skillful, Inter Milan's tactical change in the game is more fluid, Catania wants to defend to the death, but can't hold at all...... Another big win!
Inter Milan has become more and more terrifying!
…… It was at this time that the winter transfer market was in turmoil again.
The most shocking is the report of Torino Sport, who claimed that the Juventus hierarchy could not stand the stupid performance of coach Del Neri, and had the idea of changing the manager, and were secretly contacting Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini...... At the same time, the Bianconeri also brought in centre-back Barzagli from former Bundesliga champions VfL Wolfsburg, but to the surprise of many, the former member of the World Army is worth only a pitiful 300,000 euros, and many expect that Barzagli could be the cheapest signing in the top five leagues this winter transfer window, in addition to a free transfer!
And about Wolfsburg, there is also a farce is playing out - about Bosnian center Edin Dzeko, Serie A giants Inter Milan and Premier League upstart Manchester City launched a dead-end stumbling, the two teams competed for offers, the transfer fee was raised all the way from the initial 30 million euros to 45 million, it is said that the competition continues, the two sides have changed from simple transfer competition to vindictiveness, in the latest report of the German media "Kicker" wrote - Manchester City's Abu Dhabi boss threatened to use money to stone the madman Lee, And the madman Li replied disdainfully: "Poor nouveau riche, don't try to take one of Dzeko's leg hairs from Lao Tzu......"
In addition, according to the "Roma Sport" Napoli team lost to Inter Milan at 1:6, people's hearts fluctuated - the number one core of the team - Slovak player Hamsik moved the idea of transfer, and the agent is actively contacting the next home for the player, including Real Madrid, Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern Munich and many other giants have coveted the young Slovak star, especially Manchester United is the most enthusiastic, a generation of Red Devils godfather Ferguson wants to find [ginger head] Scholes' successor is already an open secret, and in his opinion, Hamshik is clearly the right person to do so!
And another centre-forward, Edinson Cavani, has also caught the eye of a big giant.
Mourinho, who has been asking the club to bring in a high school striker to enrich the changes in the team, has shifted his attention from the [Warcraft] Drogba and [Little Warcraft] Adebayo to the Serie A sharpshooter, and has repeatedly urged Florentino to take down the Uruguayan all-round center forward if he wants the championship...... This winter transfer period has never been more lively!
However, some authoritative football newspapers and experts have analyzed whether this series of heavyweight transfers can happen, the key lies in Inter Milan and the madman Lee, if the madman Lee can really snatch Bosnia-Herzegovina center Dzeko from Manchester City, then Manchester City can only retain the high school striker Adebayo, Real Madrid can not get Adebayo, so naturally they can only go all out to attack Cavani. Otherwise, according to Marca, if Manchester City get Dzeko, then Florentino can wait until he is more inclined to the "little monster" on loan...... Very chaotic relationship!
The real Europe has their eyes on the madman Lee and the Manchester City boss's fighting style.
However, at this time, a person quietly came to the city of Milan with regret and urgency and found the madman Lee!
