Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Fullbacks

Juventus, who were hit by the phonegate, began their journey of revival, and AC Milan, who were also punished by the phonegate, are also in dire need of reinforcements.

Although it was rumored in the media that AC Milan would also be relegated with Juventus, those who really understood knew that it was impossible.

Galliani is the president of the professional league, and Berlusconi is the prime minister of the Italian government.

With such a big backstage, how could AC Milan be relegated?

Not to mention Berlusconi's public threat to the Italian Football Federation that if AC Milan is relegated, his TV station will no longer buy the rights to broadcast Serie A.

With both political and economic pressure, it is certainly impossible for AC Milan to be relegated.

However, although they will not be relegated, they will start the season with negative points.

If you want to catch up, you need to replenish the reinforcements.

Otto is naturally a player that AC Milan are eyeing in the eye.

Last season's impressive performances at Lazio made AC Milan excited.

Cafu is getting older and the team can no longer rely on Cafu at right-back and must strengthen their strengths.

Otto is a good choice.

First of all, he is very good, and secondly, he is a player who has been produced in the AC Milan Academy and he has always wanted to return to AC Milan.

In addition, there is another reason why AC Milan are keen on Otto.

That's ......

Poaching from Lazio and poaching their main right-back would not only strengthen them themselves, but also weaken Lazio's main rival.

Although they have not communicated with Juventus, they believe that Juventus must have had this idea in mind when they traded Barzarettiga for three million euros from Lazio.

It is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, both to hit the opponent and strengthen himself.

They know why Lazio is selling their main force like this, because they need to pay off their debts.

They did not sympathize with Lazio at all. Instead, they should take advantage of the fire to rob. Because the northern duo has long seen that the top two teams in Rome are not pleasing to the eye, as long as they can hit these two teams, they are happy to do anything.

But Chang Sheng was tougher than they thought.

"Any form of installment payment is not accepted, it must be given in cash, and the transaction is successful at one time, otherwise there is no need to talk."

Here's his answer to AC Milan.

AC Milan wanted to buy Otto in installments, but Chang Sheng did not accept it at all.

AC Milan bought Nesta from Lazio and chose to pay in installments, which made Lazio miserable. Pay in installments. The amount of money paid for the first time was not enough for Lazio to pay off its debts.

When playing the game, Chang Sheng can only use it for others, and never for others to use it for himself.

AC Milan want to repeat their old tricks against Lazio. Then look at who is in charge of Lazio now!

He wasn't afraid to scare away AC Milan, and he was completely uninterested in Otto.

Because he knows that AC Milan really need a right-back.

Cafu is old, Zambrotta has gone to Barcelona, and the only right-back that AC Milan can look at in the transfer market is Oddo.

So they have to buy Otto.

This is the condition for Chang Sheng to have no fear.

※※※

The constant win was not bad, and AC Milan soon conceded.

Now that the phonegate scandal has left AC Milan in a quandary, they don't have time to play any tricks in the transfer market, hoping to finalise a few valuable transfers as soon as possible to reassure the fans.

Otto is undoubtedly a good choice.

They agree to a lump sum payment. But in this way, Otto's worth is not high.

It doesn't matter if you win.

He put a price tag of 10 million euros on Otto and added another player.

10 million to buy a right-back is indeed a bit expensive. It's just that AC Milan now have no choice.

They have to bear this ten million.

But as soon as they heard that Chang Sheng actually wanted people, AC Milan was entangled.

What if the opponent names important players?

Fortunately, Chang Sheng didn't seem to have any intention of embarrassing AC Milan.

Chang Win requires a player who is not taken seriously at AC Milan, right midfielder Ignazio. Abate.

Although in the 2003-2004 season at the age of 17 Abate was given a chance to play in the AC Milan first team, breaking the record held by Maldini for the youngest player to make an appearance for AC Milan.

But then Abate was loaned out on loan. There is no place for Abate in the first team at AC Milan.

Going out on loan is a great way for young players to develop themselves and improve themselves. Teams often have high hopes for such players as well.

It's a pity that Abate, who is still playing right midfielder at this time, has been on loan and his performance is very average and he can't impress AC Milan.

At Sampdoria he played half a season in Serie A, but he didn't play a game and was dropped out when his loan expired. He was then loaned to Piacenza in the second division, and this time he finally got thirteen appearances.

However, his performance could not satisfy AC Milan.

In the right midfield position, Abate could not shake Gattuso's position. Although Gattuso is a defensive midfielder, he is actually a right midfielder.

In the same way, on the bench there is also a rouy. Costa, Ambrosini and other good players.

Abate's performances have been nowhere near as good as he had been in the reserves and youth teams.

AC Milan gradually lost interest and confidence in him.

If there is no team to take over, they will definitely continue on loan. But AC Milan are not without much hope and expectation for Abate.

Unexpectedly, Lazio actually asked Abate by name......

Winning vision......

Could it be that Abate is really talented?

But his game on the right wing, scouts and coaches have watched it many times, and everyone thinks that he doesn't have much room to grow......

And compared to Odo, Abate is obviously not worth mentioning.

In the end, although AC Milan were skeptical of Abate's motives for the victory, they finally chose to agree in a desperate desire to get Otto.

That's it, 10 million euros plus Ignazio. Abate. Let Otto go from Lazio to AC Milan.

He can finally return to his "hometown" that haunts him......

※※※

For Otto's transfer deal, many people don't understand.

Otto sells for 10 million euros, which is normal. But what's the deal with that Abbate?

Everyone can see that Abate's performance in the right midfield position is average. Moreover, judging from the tactics of constant victory, there is no room for the right front...... Chang Sheng played 433 at Lazio, there was no full-back set-up, and all three midfielders were central midfielders.

Giving wing-backs and wingers to the wing-backs, how can there be full-backs?

Abate can't play as a right winger, he doesn't have the ability.

Is it right-back?

But his defensive ability is also very average......

People can't figure it out. Chang Sheng will not explain to them that Abate is the main right-back of AC Milan and the right-back of the Italian national team in the future.

At full-back, he still has a lot to buy.

With Otto and Zauri gone, De Silvestri is on loan, Pasquale is on loan, and now the loan is expiring. Chang Sheng didn't want to buy him out, so he returned to Inter Milan.

There was only one Barzaretti and Lazio had almost no full-backs left.

Barzaretti can play as the main left wing-back.

But who will be the main right midfielder?

Abate certainly wants to play at right-back, and winning will allow him to switch to right-back, but now he is not up to the requirements of being a regular player.

In terms of the main right wing-back, the winning focus is on the Swiss international Stefan, who later played for Lazio and Juventus. Lichtsteiner.

The full-back who defensively is fierce and has excellent assist ability. It's still relatively unknown.

Plays for Ligue 1 side Lille.

Lazio should not be able to spend much money to buy him, but it will not be too cheap either. A million euros is always needed.

Because he has just joined Lille for a season, it will be more difficult to let him go at this time.

Later he played in Lille after three years. Lazio bought him for 1.2 million euros.

Chang Sheng picked up the phone and made an offer to Lille.

※※※

In addition to Lichtsteiner, Chang Sheng also intends to snatch Kolarov, Koentrão and Azpilicueta into his account in advance.

These three players will also play for Lazio in the future. Or sell it for money, it's all suitable.

Kolarov later moved from Lazio to Manchester City for £19 million. And now he is still messing around in Serbia, and it doesn't cost much to get him. Even if he made a name for himself at the 2007 World Junior Championships, Lazio only paid him 800,000 euros. Now that Chang Sheng wants to buy him, it's cheaper.

Chang Sheng intends to buy Kolarov for half a million euros.

Of course, Kolarov is an Eastern European player, not an EU player, so he has to occupy a non-EU place.

That's why Chang Sheng is going to talk to Kolarov's team, OFK Belgrade – they paid for Kolarov, but the transfer deal was postponed until next summer. This way Lazio will have a non-EU quota.

This season, Kolarov continued to play for OFK Belgrade. It's equivalent to renting.

Coentrão is also cheap now.

He plays for the club River Ave in Portugal, which had just been relegated at the end of last season and could only play in Portugal's second division, the Portuguese First Division.

Coentrão has only made four appearances in his first two seasons, scoring once. Apparently not taken seriously, and also too young.

The season in which he broke out would be the 2006-2007 season, when he played the main team in the Ave River in the First Division. Then a million euros went to Benfica.

Chang Sheng now has to cut off his beard early, bringing Coentrão to Lazio at a lower price and replacing Barzaretti. At this time, Coentrão was still a midfielder, and when he arrived at Lazio, Changsheng wanted to develop him as a left-back.

Finally, the main right wing-back of Ligue 1 giants Marseille was later joined by Chelsea's Cesar. Cesar Azpilicueta. Like Coentrão and Abate, he played as a midfielder when he debuted and later became an excellent full-back.

It's easier to get Azpilicueta, who doesn't even have to pay a transfer fee, just a symbolic amount of compensation to Osasuna.

Azpilicueta, who was born on August 28, 1989, was not yet 17 years old.

According to Spanish law, players under the age of 18 cannot sign a professional contract.

So now Azpilicueta is not bound by a contract, any team can sign him and take him away from Osasuna.

It's just that at this time, not many people can clearly know his future value.

But Chang Sheng knows.

About eight million euros!

That's a great deal......
