Chapter Ninety-Five: Bargaining on the Phone

Pandev is very sought-after in the transfer market now, and his excellent performance in Lazio is very incompatible, but it is very sought-after now, and there is another reason, that is, Pandev does not have to participate in the World Cup, so that his value will not fluctuate after the World Cup, and those teams who are interested in him can naturally make an offer now to get Pandev.

There are quite a few teams interested in Pandev, and not just in Italy.

In the Bundesliga, La Liga and the Premier League, and even in Ligue 1, there are suitors for Pandev.

Chang Sheng intends to push Pandev into the transfer market first, because Pandev is now the most sought-after Lazio player, and he is more sought-after than Odor. He's a striker, and a striker is often more expensive and easier to sell than a defender.

If Pandev can make a smooth transfer, he will have enough transfer funds in his account.

Otherwise, all those plans of my own will be in vain.

For a player who was the team's main scorer last season, now he has to ruthlessly sell it.

If you are a person who is full of feelings and likes to be sad and sad, you may not be able to do this.

Because some words are difficult to say, for fear of hurting people.

But for Chang Sheng, he has no such concerns. Work is work. It is his job to train Pandev himself and make him the top scorer in the team. Pushing him into the transfer market and making him earn money for the team is also a winning job.

Selling players is often done, and I'm used to it.

He picked up the phone in his office and asked the club's beautiful operator, Miss Rucia, to help him connect to Pandev's agent.

After the phone was answered, he told Pandev's agent: "Golan did very well last season and now there are a number of clubs interested in him. For the sake of Lazio, and for the good of the Golan, we will find another owner for him......"

Then he hung up.

Pandev's agent on the other end of the phone had long expected such a day.

In fact, he has been waiting for Chang Sheng's call.

Before it was certain whether Chang Sheng would actually give up on Pandev. He didn't dare to contact other teams in private, in case Chang Sheng said that Pandev was not for sale, he would do it for nothing.

Now that Chang Sheng personally told him that Pan Dev could leave, he would naturally contact other teams, and Chang Sheng didn't need to say anything.

After Chang Sheng made the call, he began to busy promoting his players to other teams.

First of all, he had to talk to Napoli about buying Cavani.

So he asked the operator Rukia to connect with Napoli club manager Pierre Paulo. Marino's call.

"Marino is on the front line." Miss Rukia informed him by phone.

Chang Sheng picked up the red phone on the left-hand side of his desk.

"Hi Mr. Marino. I've got a player who suits you well and can help you play in the second division......"

Marino on the other end of the line knew it was always winning. He laughed, "Stop going around in circles, Chang." You just say what your purpose is. ”

"That's right, we need a favor from you Naples...... In return, we will give you De Silvestri a free season loan and a low price of first refusal. What do you think of this? ”

Marino was silent for a moment. It seems to be considering this suggestion of Changsheng.

After thinking about it for a moment, he asked: "Well, I don't see anything that Lazio needs our help from Naples." ”

"Non-EU quotas. I need your non-EU transfer places. ”

This kind of thing is not uncommon in Italian football, where big clubs have their eye on a non-EU player, but because there are no more non-EU signings, they turn to other Italian teams for help. It's just that no one is a living Lei Feng, and such help must be accompanied by an exchange of interests.

So Marino didn't find it inconceivable to be a constant winner. Or domineering.

"We need to think about it." He replied with a constant victory.

Chang Sheng expressed understanding: "Okay, no problem. You can call me anytime. ”

After hanging up the phone, he asked the operator, Miss Rucia, to continue calling him, this time to Florence.

He's going to recommend Zauri this time.

He knows that Fiorentina have been looking for a reliable full-back for several years.

Zauri has been a complete hit in his season. The offense and defense are remarkable.

For Fiorentina, Zauri should be an attractive player.

He recommended Zauri to Fiorentina manager Corvino on the phone, and if Fiorentina were interested in Zauri, the two clubs could talk.

In fact, Corvino did have an interest in Zauri. This has been reported in the media. But not in a big way. Chang Sheng was found in that pile of media reports.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought to call Corvino.

Corvino also knows why Chang Sheng would call him, as he has publicly expressed interest in Zauri.

So he didn't say to Marino that he wanted to think about it. He is the one who can make decisions about transfers at Fiorentina.

He was thinking about how to get more out of Lazio......

Zauri: He definitely wants to. And what about the others?

The fifty-six-year-old Corvino is a well-known transfer master in Italian football, and Lecce's Ledesma, who is often valued by the winner, was poached by Corvino for Lecce. In addition to Ledesma, during his time at Lecce, he also poached players such as Vucinic and Bodinov at a low price.

In the summer of 2005, he moved from Lecce to Fiorentina, who had just been promoted to the first division.

Responsible for the transfer of Fiorentina.

He knew right away who he was going to get from Lazio.

"Zauri is fine, but we still need Pandev."

Chang Sheng directly refused: "That's not good, Pandev is interested in him by Inter Milan, we prefer to let him go somewhere, because Moratti is willing to spend money ......"

Of course, Chang Sheng didn't really want Pandev to go to Inter Milan. In fact, he knew that Inter Milan could not have Pandev, although now that they were shouting fiercely, it seemed that they were already bound to win Pandev.

But soon things will change when the final results of the phone door are out.

Juventus will confirm relegation. As a result, a number of Bianconeri players will flee Turin.

Among them is Ibrahimovic.

Chang Sheng thinks Inter Milan will be more willing to buy Ibrahimovic, even if there are wings of his own butterfly, this cannot be changed.

Compared to Pandev, Ibrahimovic is more star-studded, with excellent technique at his feet, and is more favored by Moratti.

So Inter Milan will definitely buy Ibrahimovic.

After they have Ibrahimovic, they will naturally not spend more than 10 million euros on Pandev.

It's a good thing that Florence is interested in Pandev, and he wins when he hears Corvino say that. In fact, I was happy in my heart. Because Fiorentina are a reliable buyer, Fiorentina, who were re-promoted to the first division last season, are looking to regain Fiorentina's former glory under new owner Della Valle. Even the phonegate scandal did not dampen Florence's ambitions.

Although they already have the top scorer in Serie A, Tony, but find a suitable partner for Tony. It is also a top priority for Corvino.

Although he was happy in his heart, Chang Sheng did not show it.

Instead, he refused.

He was not afraid of Florence, and he was no longer willing to be interested.

It's just whetting his appetite and raising the price for Pandev.

It is a fact that Inter Milan is interested in Pandev, and Pandev himself wants to go to Inter.

So Corvino couldn't guess that the constant win was actually to raise the price.

Then Chang Sheng could whet Florence's appetite - as long as they really wanted Pandev......

"Zauri we can talk, but Pandev can't. So let's talk about Zauri......" Chang Sheng said to Corvino.

Corvino is also a veteran in the transfer market, so he didn't show too much eagerness, so he nodded: "Okay. Let's start with the ...... Zauri"

Even if Pandev doesn't get it in the end, it's not bad to buy a Zauri.

That's what Corvino had in mind.

In this way, the two sides started a bargain directly on the phone.

After a long day of talks, the two sides reached an agreement on the price of four million euros.

Zauri did a great job though. But his fame is not big enough, and his commercial value is low, which limits his worth.

He's so good only the head coach knows, and that kind of player is the quintessential role player. Any team needs it, but it's not worth much. Because there are a lot of such players. Not a superstar.

Being able to sell Zauri at the price of 4 million euros is already a very high level of permanent victory.

※※※

After agreeing with Corvino on Zauri's worth, Chang Sheng hung up the phone. Three calls were made in a row, and the last one took the longest, about half an hour. The two sides bargain directly on the phone, which wastes more saliva than face-to-face, because they can't see each other's expressions, and they can't use their own expressions to exert pressure, so they can only rely on their incorruptible tongues.

After making the call, Chang Sheng looked at his desk.

One thing that is noticeably different from when I was in Spain is that I have several more phones on my desk.

These calls are his tools to make a name for himself in the transfer market.

This is an experience that you don't find in Spain.

When he was in Italy, he handled transfers differently than he did in Spain.

Italy pays attention to human feelings, everything can be communicated, can be discussed, and any benefit can be exchanged. So in Italy, everyone can call directly and communicate privately.

What kind of players do you want? I've got these players here, you can see which one you like, but you've got to give us the one on your team...... Now we don't have much money, so we're going to have a one-year loan, and then we're going to have a right of first refusal......

Who's on your team isn't bad, we're interested in him, or we'll buy half of him from your team, right? It's good for everyone to share the risk in this way......

……

Something like this happens every season in Italian football.

So in Italian football, the desks of club managers and sports directors are always the busiest when the phones ring.

A lot of transfer deals are made in these phone calls.
