Chapter 226: Winter Transfer
At the end of the 14 season, there were laughter and tears from the fans, and the same was true for the players, some players were gone, some players were coming.
Chinese pay attention to what they pay for, and buying players is of course expensive.
The Chinese Super League, which aims to build the first football league in Asia, is currently similar to the K League J League in terms of strength, but in terms of recruitment, it is definitely a few streets away from the KJ League, and only Qatar and the United Arab Emirates can compete with the Chinese Super League.
The Chinese Super League's winter transfer period runs from January 1 to February 27, and while the Chinese men's national football team is fighting hard in Australia, domestic clubs are not idle. Whether it is the traditional powerhouse Guangzhou Evergrande Shandong Luneng, or the newly promoted Banma Shijiazhuang Yongchang Chongqing Lifan, they are all eager to try and prepare to introduce strong players to play a new world in the new season.
Guangzhou Evergrande claims to be the most professional football club in China, this sentence is not easy to say, but Evergrande's recruitment is definitely the most topical in China.
On the morning of January 13, 2015, Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao Football Club officially announced that it had officially signed a four-year contract with the defending champion Cruzeiro of the Brazilian Liga and the current former Brazilian international Ricardo Goulart Pereira for a transfer fee of 15 million euros.
The transfer fee of 15 million euros equaled the record set by the AFC Champions League Golden Boot Oliveira in 12 years when he transferred to Peninsula Football Club in the United Arab Emirates.
The European winter recruitment has ended, and in the entire European winter transfer period, only Valencia brought in Argentine midfielder Enzo Nicolás Perez from Benfica for a transfer fee higher than Goulart's.
Moreover, Goulart's annual salary after tax is 400 euros, the annual salary of football player Li Dafeng is the first in the world, nearly 15 million euros, and Neymar's 7.06 million ranks thirteenth.
Needless to say, as soon as the news came out, the major sports media in Europe were all kinds of acid, and when the European economy was deteriorating, in addition to the transfer of first-class players, there were not many transfer transactions of more than 10 million, and the Chinese Super League began to buy players of more than 10 million euros, which is really Nima's ......
The European media is unhappy, but the players are still very happy, Suarez: Barcelona quickly give me a salary increase, otherwise I will go to the Chinese Super League.
Da Fengxian: Why haven't you renewed your contract with Lao Tzu in Paris, Shanghai SIPG contacted me, don't force me to change jobs.
Ba Shen: Although I have performed very badly in the past two years, I want to see my outbreak and get in touch quickly, otherwise I will go to China.
The European media is sour, and they still recognize Goulart's strength very much, and most of them think that Goulart can go to the five major leagues and at least play the main team in the middle of the team, after all, he is the MVP of the Brazilian league.
At just 24 years old, Goulart scored 15 goals and provided five assists in 26 games in the 2014 Liga to help the team defend the Liga title and was the MVP of the 14th season.
How good is the MVP of the Brazilian league, not to mention this, 2000 years is Romario, 02 is Kaka, 04 is Robinho, 05 is Tevez, 09 is Adriano, 10 is Conca, 11 is Neymar.
Super strength, super high transfer fee, former Brazilian international Goulart transferred to Guangzhou Evergrande. As soon as the news came out, it immediately detonated China's major football forums, with mixed reviews, some thought that Evergrande had destroyed the rules of the market, some thought that Evergrande knew how to spend money and did not know how to cultivate themselves, and some thought that cooperation with high-level foreign aid could improve the skills of domestic players.
However, without waiting for fans to digest the news, on January 16, Guangzhou Evergrande officially announced the signing of Alain de Carvalho for a transfer fee of 11.1 million euros, and the two sides signed a four-year contract.
Allan, 26 years old this year, ranked first among the top ten rising stars in the Europa League in the 13-14 season, and the top scorer in the Europa League in the 14-15 season.
The transfer fee of 11 million is the sixth highest in the history of Asian football.
It is another blockbuster reinforcement, and at the same time, Evergrande also introduced Zhang Jiaqi, Zou Zheng, and Wang Shangyuan.
Some fans asked: "Evergrande, what are you doing, do you want to win the Club World Cup?" ”
Evergrande smiled, "I'm not Luneng, I'm more down-to-earth, my goal is to be the world's top 20 club." ”
Luneng had no choice but to lie down, Luneng's senior management never thought about winning the Club World Cup, they just wrote some expectation clauses on the contract with head coach Kuka, how much to win the AFC Champions League championship, how much to win the World Club Cup championship, in fact, Evergrande and Lippi also have similar agreements, Guoan and Manzano also have it, but Kuka said it with a big mouth, and as a result, the national media ridiculed Luneng for not knowing how thick it is.
Of course, Luneng's senior management disdained to respond to reporters' questions about the Club World Cup, and they thought, "We are also the traditional heroes of the Chinese Super League, what's wrong with setting a goal?" ”
Luneng is naturally a giant, Evergrande's transfer is in full swing, Luneng is also unwilling to be lonely, Evergrande introduced a former international, and Luneng introduced Brazil's current international Diego Tardelli Martins.
Dunga: You now know my difficulties, it's not that I'm not strong, it's really ...... I used to go to the five major leagues to find international players, and now I go to the Chinese Super League to find international players, what do you want me to do?
The day after Evergrande announced the signing of Alain, Shandong Luneng Taishan Football Club officially signed a contract with Diego Tardelli for a transfer fee of 5.5 million euros.
Talierd? How do you introduce it? It seems that there is nothing to say except for the current Brazilian international. (Luneng I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to write, there's really nothing to boast about)
Luneng did not bring in domestic aid.
In addition to Evergrande and Luneng, another local tyrant, Shanghai SIPG, also has major reinforcements, and the foreign aid introduced by SIPG includes Conca, Dawei, Jin Zhourong, and Evra.
Conca used to be the king of celestial bodies, the double MVP of the Chinese Super League, needless to say, the strength is absolutely easy to use, and it comes with a system, which can pass and shoot suddenly.
Davi is the absolute hero of R&F's rise in the 14th season, Kim Joo-young is a South Korean international, and Patrice Evra is an Ivorian monster at the age of 20.
In addition, R&F's meritorious coach and former England national team head coach Elkeson joined SIPG, which is definitely an improvement for SIPG.
At the same time, SIPG also introduced Sun Xiang from Guangzhou Evergrande, Shi Ke from Hangzhou Greentown, Yang Boyu from Dalian Albin, and Yuhai from Guizhou Renhe.
SIPG's ambitions for the new season are unmistakable.
Evergrande Luneng is a high-profile three-person in Hong Kong, and Beijing Guoan, one of the BIG4, is much more low-key, and they have not changed foreign aid. In terms of domestic aid, Yu Dabao and Jin Pengxiang were introduced from Dalian Albin, Li Lei was introduced from Henan Jianye, and Shi Xiaotian was introduced from Liaoning Hongyun.
Guoan's foreign aid remains unchanged, in fact, the main reason is that Manzano's perforation system for Guoan has been very stable and does not need to change anything, so even if foreign aid is not introduced, fans still think that Guoan is a strong contender for the championship.
Except for BIG4, all the other players have changed foreign aids, the more famous ones are Changchun Yatai's introduction of Goulart's former partner Moreno, Shanghai Shenhua's introduction of Australia's legendary striker Cahill, Tianjin TEDA's introduction of the former Chinese Super League Golden Boot Barquez, and Jiangsu Shuntian's introduction of Getafe core Samir.
There is no doubt that the club's approach is still very pleasing to the fans, and if these foreign players were born in Asia, even in Japan, South Korea, Iran and Australia, they are at the international level, much better than Chinese players.
It's just that the hearts of the fans are hanging from beginning to end, they feel that whether it is Goulart or Talierd, there is no shock from this person's transfer, and everyone is waiting for news of a person, whether he is in Europe, or in Yongchang, or going to a Chinese Super League giant like Evergrande Guoan.
