Chapter 444: A Battle Between the Media!

AFP commented: Don's transfer has finally come to light, and Real Madrid have won this war without gunpowder. The sky-high price of 160 million has set a new unimaginable transfer record. The youngest national team captain in history has set a new transfer record set by former French captain Zinedine Zidane.

This crazy number, the football transfer market, has since entered a crazy era. The Champions League is rich in prize money, and in order to compete for sponsorship and invest a lot of money, the club has chosen more influential stars to join. Don's battles with the British and Spanish media, invisibly, increased Don's influence.

Don's dominance on the pitch, as well as his ability to score goals in key games and key moments, is the basis for Real Madrid's willingness to pay a high price. Don led Milan to Serie A and Champions League last season, fulfilling his early season promise. A lot of people think it's been a fantastic season.

Forty-four goals in Serie A and twenty-one in the Champions League, which were the stats of Don last season for Milan. Swept the Champions League Player of the Year, Top Scorer and European Golden Boot for two seasons, he is the most influential and dominant star in football today.

We don't know if the Milan dynasty will continue to exist, but we can see that a new era for Real Madrid is coming. Don and Ribery are on a winning page in European Championship qualifiers and they will surely make a new saga at the Bernabeu!

Calderón inherited Real Madrid's business philosophy - buy the best stars!

……

The major media in the world have expressed their opinions, and many people think that this world has gone crazy. Speaking to The Times, Bailey said: "The price is a bit high. His value is overrated. I know I'm going to offend the French fans by saying that, but I'm going to say it anyway. ”

"There is a general inflated value of stars right now. Zinedine Zidane has been at a high level for a decade. He's worth $76 million, and I think he's worth it because he's proven his worth in the ring over the years. Don is only nineteen years old now, and he's been successful so far, but no one knows how long he'll be in form and whether he'll be able to keep it up this season. It's hard to say. ”

"It is important to know that many stars will quickly lose their way in the face of great glory and wealth after reaching their prime. Could this be the case for Don? It's hard to say right now. However, we cannot rule out this possibility. ”

"Don was so outstanding last season. It is inseparable from the two Brazilian stars next to him. Kaka and Ronnie gave him a lot of support, and Ronnie gave him the chance to score on a lot of occasions. So, after leaving Ronnie and Kaka. Can Don still be that magical? I think it's hard to say. ”

"I'm ready to meet the fury of the French fans and the media. But I'm honest about what I think. ”

The Times will say what Bailey said. When it came out, they commented: Pelé did not approve of Calderon's deal, believing that Don was after losing Kaka and Ronnie. It's hard to have a magical performance in a game. We feel the same way.

So Chelsea fans need not be sad, if Abou did spend $160 million to bring him to Stamford Bridge, it is very difficult to say whether he will be able to adapt to the fast pace of the Premier League. It is said that great hope leads to great disappointment. Chelsea fans don't have that pain now, it belongs to Real Madrid fans.

160 million, Calderón is putting on a show to attract attention. But everything has to be done with results, and Calderón doesn't have to rejoice too soon, maybe he will cry when the new season starts.

The shrewdest and biggest winner in this feast is Galliani. He knew that defending the Champions League was already a miracle, and Milan could not achieve three consecutive Champions League titles, so he sold Tang at a high price when he had just won the Champions League.

Many people think that Milan sold Don because of financial constraints and to make up for the shortfall, but this is not the case. There are media reports that the Champions League defense has brought Milan hundreds of millions of euros in revenue, so how can they have a deficit? Even if this figure is wrong, Milan won last year's Champions League bonus of 60 million, and their deficit is far less than the media says.

The shrewd Galliani knows that after a series of miracles, the Milan dynasty will not be able to continue to be brilliant next season, because the excitement of the players is too high, and they are not easy to get excited. In this case, their results can be imagined.

Then, if you want to sell it for a good price, sell it now, and wait another season, and you may not be able to sell so much. Galliani is a master of business.

Like stocks, Real Madrid is a buyer at the highest price, want to make money? God, how is this possible!

As soon as the Times commentary came out, the members of the "Tang Alliance" began to get busy, and they began to criticize Calderon, and many British media responded, "Even the football king Pele is not optimistic about Don, Calderon has made the stupidest investment in history, he will lose all his money!" The Daily Telegraph said.

Newspapers in Catalonia, Spain, immediately joined this camp, and Johansson, chairman of the "Anti-Tang Alliance", wrote a signed article in the World Sports Newspaper, with the title: Pele thinks the French captain is seriously overvalued!

June 27, 2007, was the birth of 160 million. People will remember this time in the future, but they will remember it not because Real Madrid ushered in a new era, but because Calderón made the stupidest decision.

In order to get the French captain, Calderon let the prince of the Bernabeu go, and it is said that he will also sell the stars of the team at a low price in order to raise funds. The stupid Calderón thinks that the captain of France will bring him the trophy, but when the new season begins, he will find out that he is wrong, and he is quite wrong.

The Real Madrid dressing room is bound to be in turmoil, that's for sure. Can a disunited Real Madrid win the title? God, football is a collective sport, not an individual sport, the locker room is not united, and you can't get any results.

The new season belongs to Barcelona, not Real Madrid!

……

If someone objects and ridicules it, there will be people who approve and praise it.

Maradona in an interview with The Independent. "I've said a long time ago that people like us can't be measured in money, because we're priceless on the pitch. Now if you have to measure it in terms of money, Calderón has made a price tag of 160 million. ”

"A lot of people are surprised by the price, but I'm not surprised at all, it's more than that. The facts will prove what I say. Calderón is shrewd and he doesn't trade at a loss. ”

"Some people think that 160 million can make a competitive team, so why buy a star. But they underestimated the role of superstars in key matches. I would like to ask a question. You ask the French fans. Are they willing to spend 160 million to buy a World Cup? You can also ask Milan fans if they are responsible for buying two Champions Leagues and a Serie A trophy for 160 million. ”

I think the answer must be yes. There are things that money can't buy. A World Cup can unite an entire country. Boost national morale. It's not something money can buy. ”

"Don said. ' I'm the greatest star of our time. I appreciate this sentence and am very arrogant. He's not like some people. On the surface, he looks modest, but in fact, he wants to please more people. That kind of person knows what to please the media, and whatever others want to know, he will say. ”

"Don is straightforward and has a similar personality to mine, so I like him a lot."

Ever since Maradona heard that Tang Jue wanted to be like him and lead the team to win the World Cup by himself, his impression of him has skyrocketed. So Maradona naturally praised Tang Jue in front of the media.

As for the "some" in his mouth, people speculate that he is talking about Brazilian ace Pele. Because Bailey, in an interview with The Times, denied the deal. Maradona and Pele were born enemies, and the football worlds of Argentina and Brazil were already at odds, with the media of both countries often attacking each other.

In the quarterfinals of the World Cup last year, Brazil was eliminated by France, and the Argentine media ridiculed Brazil overwhelmingly, "What a quartet, in front of Zidane and Don, is simply a pile of." That's what The Independent said at the time.

After interviewing Maradona, the Independent commented: Pele said that after Don left the two Brazilians, he could not have a magical performance. This is complete nonsense, in the quarterfinals of last year's World Cup, the match between France and Brazil, could it be that Don's goal came from a pass from Kaka and Ronaldo?

So, Don leaving Kaka and Ronnie will be just as exciting. To some extent, the reason why the horror trio was able to dominate Europe was actually the credit of Don alone, and Kaka and Ronaldo were sitting back and enjoying it.

Don and Franck Ribery led France to seven straight wins in European Championship qualifying, and they became more and more compatible. Coming to Real Madrid, Don will only get better and better, how can it get worse and worse.

Pele said, "Some stars sink after their prime. God, he said this to the Brazilian players!

Ronaldinho is one such player, and after winning the World Footballer of the Year award for two years in a row, his form has plummeted. In the 05-06 season, he suffered a heavy defeat to Tang in the semi-finals of the Champions League, and during the following World Cup, he did not score a single goal.

When Pele said this, he was actually talking about Ronaldinho, about the stars who came out of the slums of Brazil. Don is not a Brazilian player, so it won't be like that.

The Independent's aim is to hit Pele and hit the Brazilian players by praising Don Jue. For a time, the Brazilian and Argentine media pinched each other. The Brazilian media supported Pele's view, believing that Tang's value was inflated. The Argentine media refuted Pele's remarks, supporting Maradona's point of view. Think Tang is great value for money.

Tang never imagined that his transfer would affect these two distant South American football powers.

The team newspaper called the phenomenon a "comprehensive reaction triggered by Don's transfer".

Tang's transfer sparked a battle in the media of several countries – the Spanish Civil War; The British press was one-sided, attacking him and Calderón, and the French and Italian media attacking the British media; The Argentine and Brazilian media attacked each other......

No one thought that this battle would last until Tang Jue left Real Madrid. (To be continued......)

PS: This is the last chapter of this volume, a new journey is about to begin, Tang Jue went to Real Madrid, to create a new era!
