'I wouldn't say that the transfer market in Malaga is closed, but we don't plan to sell any more players. In his post-match press conference with Betis, Linson officially issued a statement to all clubs interested in Málaga's players, "If there are clubs that are still interested in my players, I would advise them to do a little bit and the minimum release clause is there." ”

Lin Sen's meaning couldn't be clearer: he wanted my teammates and offered me a price I couldn't refuse.

And Linsen's words were also quickly interpreted by the media as evidence of his right to decide on the transfer of Malaga, because if Linsen, like most La Liga coaches, only has the right to make such a declaration?

But for Lin Sen, he doesn't care how the media interprets him, his words are ostensibly for the seemingly endless gossip club, but in fact they are also said to his own players: Children, rest assured to rush forward, the king will always be your strong backing.

Of course, how to interpret their own players depends on how much their ambition is.

Lin Sen was also helpless. The one-month winter transfer period has only passed for less than half a month now, and Lin Sen already feels like a parent whose children have reached puberty, worrying all day long about which fox spirit his son is taken away from, which animal his daughter is harmed by, and there is a fingertip for marriage, just two hundred and fifty taels, so he deceived the one who was raised for nothing.

Therefore, instead of guessing one by one, it is better to simply cut through the mess quickly.

On January 15, Málaga, who were playing at home, beat Almeria 1-0 at home to advance to the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey with an aggregate score of 2-1. Málaga fans, who didn't expect much from the Copa del Rey team to go far, seem to have finally ignited their enthusiasm for the Copa del Rey because they saw the hope of reaching the final of the Copa del Rey.

This is actually thanks to the previous draw for the round of 16 that drew Málaga into the top half, because in the lower half, there are not only strong teams like Villarreal and Valencia, but also giants like Barcelona the worst of all. In the top half, there is only one team that can be called a strong team on the cards: Sevilla.

After beating Almeria, the opponent in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey in Malaga is precisely their opponent in the previous round of the league, Real Betis. If Málaga can knock out Real Betis, then their semi-final opponent will be the winner between Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao, neither Sevilla nor Bilbao, who have not lost this season.

Meeting Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final has become a reality from an unthinkable luxury at the beginning of the season.

On the other hand, after getting the name from Lin Sen's mouth, he ran to Livermore in Portugal, and in front of Benfica, one of the famous black shops in Europe, he finally knew what it meant to have a lion open mouth, and a few days later, he returned to Spain with a disgraced face, and complained about the other party's arrogance when he saw Lin Sen.

Twenty-five million!

That's the price Benfica put on Di Maria.

This is also the reason why Livermore thinks the other side is arrogant, because this is not a price that a club like Malaga can afford.

Lin Sen, who had long known that Di Maria was currently unable to complete Livermore's mission, only smiled indifferently.

Speaking of the famous black shop in European football, Portugal's biggest fame is not Benfica, but Porto, which Mourinho once coached, Porto became the largest "black shop" in Europe in one fell swoop with the light of the Champions League, European champion members Carvalho, Deco, Ferreira, and then Pepe, who joined Real Madrid at a high price of 30 million the year before last, are the best examples of Porto buying low and selling high.

However, Lin Sen knows that in fact, only for the moment, Benfica is a potential big black shop. Because only Hulk is a big fish in the Porto team at the moment, and in the Benfica team, there are three big fish at this time: Di Maria, David Luiz and Coentrão, only these three people, not to mention the second transfer, the transfer income they will bring to Benfica in the future will be close to hundreds of millions.

Why did Lin Sen give Di Maria's name, in fact, he did not have the intention of letting Livermore test the waters first, because if there was a chance, Lin Sen would not mind making a move before the price of these people skyrocketed, but now it seems that he still underestimated the appetite of other people's black shops.

So, the matter is abandoned.

Linson then gave Livermore a name that theoretically existed as a possibility to operate, but in fact was not inferior to Di Maria.

Quaresma.

For mortals, salvation is actually a bad taste.

On the one hand, salvation does bring great satisfaction and fame, and on the other hand, the need to be saved comes with great risks. Therefore, the people who save the world are generally saints, Jesus, Buddha......

Lin Sen "took a fancy to" Quaresma, of course, he didn't dare to talk about salvation, at most it was a bad taste.

Quaresma, who has long been known as "Figo II", is just one of them, who became famous at Sporting Lisbon, disappointed in the giants Barcelona, re-proved himself in Porto, and lost himself in Inter Milan...... Ill-fated is talking about this experience.

In fact, Lin Sen knows that at this time, Inter Milan, who lost confidence in Quaresma, has included him in the list of departures, and with Mourinho giving up the four-three-three winger tactics, Quaresma's days at Inter will only be more difficult, so if Malaga proposes a loan at this time, it is not theoretically impossible to make the trip, as for why it is difficult to operate, it is because the competitor is a bit strong.

In Linson's memory, Quaresma ended up on loan at Chelsea, but in fact, the most enthusiastic pursuit of Quaresma at this time should be another Premier League team: Tottenham Hotspur.

The reason why Chelsea were able to come first was ostensibly because Quaresma preferred to go to Chelsea. But in fact, it is only because of one person's existence, because whether it is the person concerned, Quaresma, Inter coach Jose Mourinho, or Chelsea coach Scolari, they all have one thing in common, that is, their agent is the Portuguese Mendes.

So, Mendes is the key player. It just so happened that Mendes had previously contacted him. Therefore, Linson asked Livermore to test the waters again.

Test the water of Inter Milan, and at the same time, also test the water of Mendes.

When it comes to Inter Milan, Lin Sen will inevitably think of a person, Adriano, the former king of Inter Milan, compared to Quaresma, Adriano is undoubtedly more suffocating, because Quaresma can also use external excuses such as "unsuitable" to reluctantly explain his phobia of giants, and Adriano, a word that people use more is: degenerate.

The Fall, purely literally explained, is the tilt of thoughts and actions in a negative direction, that is, Adriano's Fall, more of a self-inflicted blame. It is often said that the death of his father was an important reason for his subsequent depravity, and throughout Adriano's history of depravity, this view is not unreasonable, because once known as the most promising talented striker on the planet, after his father's death, his career was almost parabolic, and countless people tried to save him, Moratti, Mancini, Dunga...... Until now, Mourinho, but apparently, none of them have been able to succeed.

Now Adriano is undoubtedly standing at the most important crossroads in his life. If nothing changes, then Inter will completely lose confidence in Adriano in two months.

Yes, two months later, not now.

Now, Inter Milan still have their last hope for Adriano, with the Brazilian still a member of Mourinho's main squad. Therefore, Lin Sen must continue to wait, and while waiting, Lin Sen must make some preparations.

Lin Sen registered a new email address on the Internet, and then, he wrote an email regularly every day, the content was very simple, just some things about Inter Milan, about Adriano, something that was destined to happen in the near future, the payment, WOOD.

Mail recipient, Guimar Riraldi.

Adriano's agent.

The email address was from Livermore, and Linson didn't expect Liraldi to notice his email in the first place, but it didn't matter, there was still time, and Liraldi would always notice.

I remember when the most die-hard fans of Adriano finally despaired of his indulgence again and again, he once said: Only God can save Ade.

Lin Sen is not God, it's just that, it just so happens, he knows something that God knows.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Building on the relationship forged by Bonucci's loan spell in the summer, Livermore was soon in contact with Inter Milan's sporting director, Marco Blanca.

Blanca was a little surprised by Livermore's intention.

Of course he knows that Malaga is currently in the top three of La Liga, but Malaga is still a small club after all, and Quaresma is on loan? Loan fees aside, do they know what Quaresma's annual salary is?

However, Livermore sounds full of sincerity, surprise is accident, but Blanca is not as arrogant as Benfica, on the one hand, although Bonucci's deal cannot be said to make the relationship between the two clubs good, but there is also a bit of a basis there. On the other hand, Livermore's mention is actually far less unrealistic than Inter Milan thinks.

As the most important investment in Inter's summer transfer, Quaresma cost Inter Milan close to 25 million, and now only half a season later, Mourinho has excluded his compatriot from the Champions League knockout squad, which is no different from abandonment.

As the head coach of Inter Milan, Mourinho certainly chooses the right to use people, but for sporting director Blanca, he needs to be responsible for any transaction, which is not as simple as buying and selling.
