Since the launch of the Football Economic Forum and the Player Database by Moon Sports Services, the development of the football field can be described as a rapid progress, and the scale of the two major businesses is also getting bigger and bigger, even if there are some companies that soon want to compete with it, but in the end there is no way to stop Moon Sports Services from getting bigger and bigger.

Now that they have completely monopolized the entire market, with a market share of more than 99%, it is difficult for other competitors to challenge the market position of Moon Sports Services, and the company's commercial operation and development capabilities are quite amazing, not only in Europe, but also in South America, Asia and Africa.

In the past few years, the fastest growth of Moon Sports Services is still in the Chinese market, they have brought excellent foreign players and foreign coaches to China through their own influence and channels, and actively operated potential Chinese players to come to Europe and enter some of Europe's best youth clubs to receive training.

Moon Sports Services is different from some other companies, they are basically no longer involved in the agent business, more in the high-end atmosphere and high-grade commercial sponsorship field, actively operating the commercial market of players, in the words of this company, to build professional football players into superstars similar to Hollywood, so that they no longer just rely on the salary paid by the players, but fully tap and play the market value of the players.

In addition to the field of football, Moon Sports Services is also actively developing other markets, for example, they entered the North American market last year and began to start in the most popular sports in the United States, such as basketball, football and baseball, but the market competition in these areas is very large, so the core market of Moon Sports Services is still in football.

The biannual Football Economic Forum has gradually transformed into the focus of football attention from all over the world, and it is also a rare event for all teams and clubs to gather, and the transfer market during the winter break has always been relatively deserted compared to the annual summer transfer market, which is a bit like the difference between the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics.

But in the winter of early 2011, the transfer market became very hot, especially in the last three days, almost one after another blockbuster recruitments, which surprised everyone.

The first is Chelsea's announcement that it has brought in Spanish centre-forward Fernando from Liverpool for a whopping 65 million euros? Fernando Torres, Liverpool's leading scorer this season, and his ability has been honed and affirmed by the Premier League over the past few seasons, is the best and most suitable centre-forward Chelsea can find at the moment.

The current Liverpool is completely different from Ye Qiu's Liverpool in his previous life, with the entry of the Indian tycoon, Liverpool's finances have been greatly improved, and a huge transfer fee has been invested this season to strengthen the team's reinforcements, so Chelsea has paid a heavy price to poach Torres from Liverpool.

Or should it be said that 65 million euros to bring in Torres, which is indeed a sky-high price, and it is understandable that Liverpool will not object, and Benitez soon announced that the team brought in Uruguayan striker Luis from Ajax for a transfer fee of 26.5 million euros? Suarez, with the Uruguayan replacing Torres.

The top scorer in the Eredivisie last season, Ajax's top scorer with 35 goals in 33 games, has been recognized by everyone, and the only suspense is whether he will become the Ruud van Nistelrooy who adapts to the Premier League. Or Kezman, who has been on a decline since the Premier League?

Interestingly, both transfers were announced on the last day of the transfer market, and not only that, but Chelsea also announced the signing of Brazilian centre-back David from Benfica for €30 million. Luiz, which brought Chelsea's winter break transfer spending to a staggering €95 million.

This fully reflects Abramovich's ambition to win the top four in the league, and it has even been revealed that after bringing in two powerful stars, Abramovich still wants to get Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yaya? Toure to ensure that the team can finish in the top four of the league and participate in the Champions League next season.

And if Chelsea still can't participate in the Champions League after such a huge number of signings, then Ancelotti has no choice but to step down.

Chelsea's huge investment has attracted a lot of attention, with Liverpool's Rafael Benitez taking the lead in saying that Liverpool will not be involved in a boring arms race, saying that he is very satisfied with the current Liverpool squad and will not strengthen the recruitment.

However, for Liverpool, who sit reasonably third in the league, they can not bring in reinforcements, but West Ham United, Newcastle and Manchester City have been greatly affected by Chelsea's recruitment, because these teams have been tight on each other's points this season, and if they perform well in the second half, anyone has a chance to finish in the top four of the league.

So, at Chelsea announced the introduction of Fernando Torres and David? After Luiz, the arms race in the Premier League also ignited the first fire, and West Ham United soon announced that the team had brought in 29-year-old Malian midfielder Mohammed from Real Madrid? Diarra, who is on a free transfer this time, is also seen as a sign for Ranieri to strengthen his midfield.

You know, the current West Ham United has Falcao, Eto'o, Giuli and Di Maria, a strong attacking phalanx, and Carvalho and Lucio in the backfield, plus just introduced England left-back Bridge from Manchester City, West Ham United's biggest weakness is still in the midfield, this time the introduction of Mohammed? Diarra is an example.

But this was just the beginning, and soon West Ham United announced that they would bring in Montenegrin player Stefan from Napoli for a transfer fee of 40 million euros. Jovetic, a player who can play in both midfield and forward positions, has performed well in Serie A, and Ranieri hopes his arrival will further strengthen West Ham's midfield's ability to create scoring chances.

Newcastle also announced that the team brought in Argentine player Ravic from Napoli and right-back Van der Wiel from Ajax for 30 million euros and 20 million euros respectively, which cost the Magpies a total of 50 million euros, and at the same time, Newcastle also announced the introduction of French star Ben Arfa from Marseille.

When several major competitors behind them have announced heavy reinforcements to strengthen their competitiveness, Manchester City, which has a large enough squad, is also not idle, and they have brought in Europe's popular center Edin from Wolfsburg for 32 million euros? Dzeko, which bloated the already excellent frontcourt.

But at the same time, Manchester City also announced once again a surprise against Tottenham Hotspur's Ivorian midfielder Yaya? Toure launched an impact, and Mancini even said in a high-profile manner, the introduction of Yaya? Toure will be the most important and final piece of the puzzle in Manchester City's midfield.

For a time, several local tyrant teams in the Premier League almost waved the money in their hands and made large-scale acquisitions throughout Europe, and there was a great idea of introducing all the famous stars of European football to the Premier League, which also made the second half of the Premier League attract attention from the outside world.

At the same time, there are also many reporters who want to find Ye Qiu, or the CEO of Tottenham Hotspur, Peter? Kenyon, ask Yaya in the end? Whether Toure's transfer rumours are true or not is due to the fact that several teams including Chelsea, West Ham, Newcastle and Manchester City are now desperate to strengthen themselves and want the African Footballer of the Year.

But Ye Qiu and Theobald closed the door to them.

…………

…………

The players are obviously used to this kind of hype in the outside media, and even they are used to the transfer of players in and out, after all, Tottenham Hotspur has not been in suspense in the past few seasons, and as professional players, even if it is themselves, they are psychologically prepared.

Tottenham Hotspur 2 4:0 away bloodbathed Fulham's main and substitute mixed lineup, and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup. Toure told him he wanted to leave the team.

It was a very frank, unreserved conversation, Yaya? Toure told Ye Qiu that Manchester City's offer was very generous and could ensure that he would receive a salary of more than 10 million pounds a year, while Ye Qiu was blunt that Tottenham Hotspur could not give such a high salary package, because it would break the team's existing salary structure.

And, Yaya? Toure also said that he didn't leave just for the money, as Mancini personally told him on the phone that he would be surrounding Yaya? Toure is the core of the midfield, building a Manchester City team with the ability to compete for the league title, which is important for Yaya? Toure is definitely a huge ****.

If he can lead Manchester City to the league title, he will be a superstar-caliber player, not a butt-wiping midfielder behind the likes of Messi, Ribery or even Cesc Fabregas, as was the case at Tottenham Hotspur.

Today is the last day of the transfer, and Ye Qiu is sitting in Theobold's conference room at this moment, Peter? Kenyon, Peter? Devisel, Mauro? Tassotti, Ricklink, Roland, and some of the club's management and members of the first-team coaching staff and scouts gathered in the conference room to discuss the issue.

"The offers from all three teams are quite good, it's the last day of the transfer, and they are all desperate to get this player and strengthen themselves, so even if the price is higher, as long as it's not outrageous, they will agree!" Peter? Kenyon was analyzing the current situation with Ye Qiu and the others.

He is the CEO of the team, and his focus is on whether this player is worth selling, as for the affairs in the football field, he will not interfere, Ye Qiu and the coaching staff will handle it themselves, and finally the two sides will agree on whether to sell or not.

Although it has always been said that there are Chelsea, West Ham United, Manchester City and Newcastle against Yaya? Toure is interested, and actually really about Yaya? Toure has only made interest and tentative offers from Chelsea, Newcastle and Manchester City, with West Ham more in the media.

But it's no wonder that Rebonorev has invested a lot of transfer fees and wants to bring in Yaya again? Toure, with his financial resources, really does not have the slightest advantage, and even Chelsea's sincerity is not very large, and the real buyers are only Newcastle and Manchester City, which are two super giants.

There is no doubt that in Peter? Kenyon's view, from a business point of view, is Yaya now? Toure has the highest value and is also the time when Tottenham Hotspur has the most advantages, and it will definitely not be a loss to sell.

Mauro? Tassotti sighed when he saw that no one was talking, "If we barely keep people, we will probably have to sell them in the summer, because we can't afford such a high salary, and if we force people to stay, whether it is a player or an internal club, it will have some impact." ”

Now Tottenham Hotspur's finances are indeed very good, with a large income, second only to Manchester United and Real Madrid, but you must know that these revenues include Tottenham Hotspur's huge income in the transfer market, so Tottenham Hotspur's current income can only be regarded as temporary.

Of course, according to Peter? Kenyon predicts that by the summer of 2013, when the team gets the Stratford Stadium, the team will fully match Manchester United and Real Madrid in terms of revenue, and even surpass them to become the highest-paid team in football if they can make a high income in the transfer market, but these are things for the future.

The current situation is that if Tottenham Hotspur directly raises the salary, the team's financial pressure will be very great, because once the salary is raised, it is almost impossible to reduce it, and now the overall salary level of Tottenham Hotspur is not low, higher than Arsenal, only worse than Manchester United and several local tycoon teams.

As for Manchester United, the salary structure of Ferguson's team has always been among the best in the Premier League, including Valencia, Nani, Anderson, and even some young players, whose salaries are very high, making Manchester United's overall salary level quite high.

At this point, Ye Qiu doesn't think Manchester United has anything to learn from, but Tottenham Hotspur, the current salary structure is relatively reasonable and orderly, but the problem is that in the face of the super high salaries of other teams, Tottenham Hotspur can't retain people.

"What do you think?" Ye Qiu looked at Peter? Devisel, asked.

The Dutchman was taking off his glasses and wiping them with a glasses cloth, and after hearing Ye Qiu's inquiry, he put them back on, "I also agree with what Mauro said just now, since he wants to go, it doesn't make much sense to keep him, and sooner or later he has to go, now he has more advantages, and when it comes to the summer, he announces that he will not renew his contract with us, or if there are other problems, we will be more troublesome." ”

And in the summer, there will definitely not be so many fat sheep who will take the initiative to send them to your door!

After Ye Qiu heard this, he felt that almost all of the people under his command were inclined to sell, after all, the players had a showdown.

"Okay, sell Yaya? After Toure, what about the midfield position? Ye Qiu was a little distressed, "The current time simply doesn't allow us to bring in reinforcements!" "Today is the last day of the transfer market, and by 23 o'clock tonight, the transfer market in European football has been closed, and all the signings after that have been useless.

In other words, there are less than ten hours left, and bringing in a player in such a short period of time is not the style of Tottenham Hotspur, nor is it the style of Ye Qiu.

"Phil? Jones did well against Fulham, Pogba could also try his hand at playing in the midfield position, but they are still relatively young, and Raphael Varane can also play a dozen in the back! "Mauro? Tasotti made his own proposal.

Against Fulham, Phil? Jones is indeed doing well on the defensive end, and Tottenham Hotspur's midfield is indeed full of talent, such as the game against Fulham, Ye Qiu arranged for the sixteen-year-old Nick? Powell came off the bench for Tottenham Hotspur for the first time, but there were few notable performances.

Undoubtedly, Phil? Jones and Pogba are both young players, they have strength, talent, and potential, not to mention their potential, but they are still very unstable, belonging to the stage of hot-blooded young people, and they still need more exercise and maturity.

This reminded Ye Qiu of a sentence in his previous life, hot-blooded young man, welcome to Manchester United!

But the situation is different now, and the current gathering place of hot-blooded young people is Tottenham Hotspur, not Manchester United.

'Our Brazilian midfielder on loan at Ajax Sandro is doing very well, so I think we can bring in to replace Yaya? Toure! "Peter? Devisel is bullish on this player, not just him, Bobby? Harms also looks good with Sandro and Lucas? Moura is two Brazilian players on loan at Ajax.

"But his labor certification is a nuisance, and the operation time is too short now!" Roland? Shepas immediately thought of the problem.

If there is no labor certification problem, Sandro can be brought in quickly, and there is no transfer fee, and he can be recalled directly.

Is it to rush in a hurry, at the risk of being slaughtered and uncomfortable, to bring in a midfielder in just ten hours?

Or do you want to give up on reinforcements and cultivate and promote Phil in the second half? Youngsters like Jones and Pogba?

Both options have their own advantages and disadvantages, and for Ye Qiu, this is indeed a dilemma.

The bigger trouble was that he didn't have enough time to think about it slowly, and what he lacked most now was time.

"Inform Ron, who was at the Hilton Hotel, and tell him that in negotiations with Manchester City and Newcastle, we agreed to let Yaya? Toure transfers, but the transfer fee can't be lower than Torres, don't think that if we get our players, we will compromise, don't spit a few mouthfuls of blood on me, don't expect to take my players! ”

Peter? After Kenyon heard this, he immediately guessed Ye Qiu's thoughts, made a price all over the sky, and paid back the money on the ground.

Truth be told, it's impossible to compare the value of a midfielder to a scoring centre-forward, but who makes Manchester City and Newcastle desperate for that player right now? And time simply does not allow them to hesitate, and if they say no, it is not that Tottenham Hotspur will not agree, but that they themselves will not agree, and the players have nothing to say.

"René, Ricardo!" Ye Qiu looked at the first-team coach René again? Muhrensteen and Ricardo? Moniz, what these two coaches do best is to sculpt the skills of the players, "From tomorrow, to Phil? Jones and Pogba have special training, especially Phil? Jones, his technique and passing need to be further strengthened. ”

Phil? After Jones came to Tottenham Hotspur, after all, he played in a group of talented technical players, and he himself became more refined and improved his skills a lot, but he was still unsatisfactory in terms of passing, and he was still the same style of playing as a flying general.

Of course, his passion makes him very eye-catching in defense, but the problem is that the back who only knows how to defend and press is just an ordinary back back, who can grab the ball, protect the ball, and pass the ball, which is a first-class or even top-level back.

Ye Qiu has always believed that it is more dangerous to lose the ball immediately after grabbing it, which is more dangerous than not grabbing it!

And with his words, everyone also knew what he meant, and they all began to act separately.
