PS1: Continue to ask for recommendation votes here, free books don't need to spend money, and it should be okay to give more recommendation votes, right? Thank you here~

PS2: Let's talk about the book friend group here, the group number is three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, nine, verifies that the answer is NTR knight, well, that's it.

With the arrival of the new year, the doors of the Serie A winter transfer market have finally opened as expected, and the managers of the teams who have been ready for a long time have completed the scheduled deals at the same time as the transfer window opens, bringing the players they have been dreaming of for a long time to their respective clubs.

In the case of Fiorentina, Antonioni immediately announced the transfer of Gambellini and Bonella to the first team, strengthening the bench depth in the central defender position; Hercule Poirot and Kenyon quietly secured the transfer of Rudovic Giuli at Monaco, bringing him to Fiorentina for a low price of $5.5 million, greatly enhancing the team's attacking strength on the right flank.

After getting the news of Jiuli's joining, Heynckes burst into tears, saying that Lao Tzu can finally put on a normal two-sided forward formation, and there is no need to worry about how to allocate Di Natale and Vincent's playing time every day!

You know, before that, Heynckes, who only had three wide attackers in his hands, generally didn't let Di Natale and Vincent play at the same time, mainly because he could play on the wing - you can't let Carlos and Zambrotta play every game to shoulder the team's wide attack, right? Regardless of whether this will have any adverse effect on the professional life of the players, the tasks assigned to them alone are also a great test of their physical fitness and competitive condition.

After all, over the course of a long season, no matter how consistent a player is, there will be some ups and downs in their performance on the pitch. The probability of this situation is closely related to the fatigue level of the players.

If Heynckes had overused players like Carlos and Zambrotta, causing them to suddenly sleepwalk in a pinch, the German coach would have been dumbfounded.

Therefore, for the arrival of Jiuli, Heynckes can be said to be quite welcome. After all, with the support of Zhuang Mingge, Monaco, whose overall strength is much stronger than in the previous life, has the opportunity to walk in the Champions Cup every year.

The reason why Gyuli has not been able to go further in the past few years, using Monaco as a springboard to enter the big four leagues and change to a club with better conditions, is mainly because of the bubble economy in previous years. At that time, Monaco, which was not short of money, offered an asking price of up to $20 million for Gyuli, which directly scared off many teams interested in the French, and when the economic bubble burst and the finances were tight, Monaco wanted to sell Gyuli for money, but found that almost everyone had tightened their pockets and was unwilling to pay millions of dollars for Gyuli......

Thanks to Monaco's lion opening at that time, Florence might not have been able to pick up such a big bargain this time. Of course, this is also thanks to Poirot's quick enough action to pinpoint Monaco's desperate need for money, and to complete the transfer with lightning speed, without giving anyone else time to react.

Compared with Heynckes, who was excited about the addition of Giuli, Fiorentina's direct competitors in Serie A, such as Juventus and Inter Milan, are not calm. Because after the observation and research in the first half of the season, they have analyzed the shortcomings of Fiorentina in the squad, and designed many tactics for these weaknesses, in order to beat Fiorentina in the next meeting! And now, with the arrival of Giuli and the promotion of Gambellini and others, all of their plans have become a pile of waste paper.

As for Fiorentina II, who lost two big defenders of Bonella and Gambellini due to the transfer of the first team, they also quickly completed a series of player transactions after the winter transfer door opened. Cesare Bovo has moved from Lecce, and the homegrown defender, who came through the Roma Academy but has not been reused, is hoping to make a mark under Jose Mourinho; The arrival of Parolo and Rossina made Palombo and Vucinic and others very relieved, and said that they could finally have a reliable substitute to let them breathe a sigh of relief; The addition of Pelle and Quagliarella has made Fiorentina II's attack more three-dimensional and difficult to prevent, the former was given "another Luca Toney" by Fiorentina's scouting department, and the latter's habit of repeatedly playing world waves in the game has been paid special attention by Mourinho, after all, such a player, if arranged properly, will bring unexpected gains to the team.

And Moretti's joining is largely due to the butterfly effect brought about by Zhuang Mingge's crossing. Because Fiorentina has become the top club in European football with the support of Zhuang Mingge, Moretti has not been favored by the purple lily as in his previous life, and he can wear the purple shirt to play in Serie A in the year of the weak title, which has attracted the attention of many Serie A teams. Having lost this opportunity to showcase his talents, Moretti is still playing in the second division at this time, and he has not even been mixed in a main position.

Therefore, in the face of Florence's solicitation, Moretti naturally threw himself into the arms of the purple lily without hesitation. Even if he was only able to play for the second team after arriving at Fiorentina, Moretti was willing to do so – with Fiorentina as a platform, it would be much easier for him to go further than with other Serie B teams. You know, scouts from Serie A clubs spend a lot more time following Fiorentina II than they do other teams, so Moretti obviously has more opportunities to make his mark here.

The arrival of Moretti has cemented the second team's already unreliable left defence, allowing Mourinho not to worry about the team's left side of the defence, allowing him to devote the extra attention to other aspects of the team.

Incidentally, Zhuang Mingge originally planned to bring in Federico Barzaretti, who played in Turin, in the position of left wing-back, and Moretti, who was calm and less than capable of assisting, was just an alternative. However, it is a pity that although Fiorentina managed to get the Torino club without difficulty, in contact with Barzaretti, the player himself made it clear that he did not want to play in Florence!

In other words, rather than being a member of the famous Fiorentina team, Barzaretti, a native of Turinois, would like to die in his parent club and help the club regain the style of the 40s of the last century, even at the cost of his entire career!
