With Italy beating France at the last moment and narrowly winning the European Cup, this European Cup has finally come to an end in the aftertaste of thousands of fans!

In the subsequent awards, Italy, the winner of the new European Championship, was the clear winner. Five players, including Toldo, Maldini, Nesta, Albertini and Inzaghi, were named in the best team for this European Championship. At the same time, Filip Inzaghi also won the Golden Boot with an absolute advantage of seven goals, ahead of Kluivert and Milosevic, and the former Serie A Golden Boot and single-season goal record holder from Fiorentina became the second-most goalscorer in a single European Championship of all time! (Note: The first to score nine goals in one go at the 1984 European Championships, a record that has never been seen before, and probably no one since.) )

By the way, there have been reporters who have tried to sow discord between him and Inzaghi in an interview with Vieri in an attempt to create a piece of news. But Vieri didn't grasp the meaning of the other party at all, and kept talking to reporters about the deep comradeship between him and Inzaghi...... As a result, the benevolent brother who tried to dig up big news in Vieri hit his head on the tempered glass door when he went out after the interview and was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.

There were also some undetermined people who ran to interview Inzaghi, asking him if he would be willing to substitute Ronaldo and Shevchenko in Fiorentina, with the intention of using this as a breakthrough to create some news. After all, after winning the honor of the European Cup Golden Boot, with Inzaghi's current identity and status, he can get the absolute main position in any team, and if he continues to stay in Fiorentina as a super substitute, it will inevitably be too cheap.

And Inzaghi's answer was also quite clever, he first thanked the fans, experts and the media for their love for him, then recalled the good years he spent in Florence, and looked forward to the future of representing the purple lilies with Shevchenko, Ronaldo and other teammates, and finally carefully analyzed the shortcomings and shortcomings of all the teams interested in him...... All in all, after three hours of Inzaghi's special mouth cannon, these reporters can see that they are just entertaining them, and they have no intention of leaving Florence at all!

The selection of the best player has sparked some controversy, with the main disagreement over the choice of Zinedine Zidane and Toldo. Some people believe that Zidane, who led France all the way to the final with his amazing ball skills and organizational skills, and contributed key goals to the finals, is the best candidate; There are also those who have chosen to support Toldo, believing that he is more deserving of the honour than Zinedine Zidane. After all, without the goalkeeper's excellent and steady performance, Italy would have been killed by the Netherlands in the semi-finals, let alone the final later.

However, compared to Toldo, who spends most of his time outside the TV camera due to his position, Zidane, as a forward midfielder and the core of the French team's organization, is naturally more favored by the judges and fans. Therefore, after a heated debate, UEFA finally awarded Zinedine Zidane the award of best player, which was a consolation to the talented but ill-fated Frenchman.

Of course, the resulting debate over who is more qualified to be the best player is not something that UEFA can quell. In other words, this situation is what UEFA wants to see the most, because only in this way can the popularity and influence of the European Cup be further expanded, and the European Cup can grow into a top football feast comparable to the World Cup!

If competitions and awards are held in a harmonious or even humble atmosphere, then how many people's attention and attention can this attract?

With the official conclusion of the European Championships, the center of gravity of European football has begun to tilt towards the summer transfer market. The heroes from all walks of life are already poised to go, waving their checkbooks, ready to poach the players they have been dreaming of for a long time, but they have not been able to hook up successfully because of the European Cup!

Soon, when Italian fans were still immersed in the beauty of winning the European Cup, a transfer news jointly announced by Parma and Lazio shocked many people's jaws: Parma officially announced that Hernán Crespo, the team's main center in the past four seasons, will join last season's Serie A champion Lazio with a world transfer fee record of 110 billion lira (about 54.16 million US dollars)!

Is it because we are falling behind and not keeping up with the pace of the times? Or is Craniotti crazy enough to spend so much money on a striker who isn't considered top-notch? This was the first reaction of the vast majority of fans after Crespo's transfer was announced.

This reaction of the fans is exactly what Cragnoti wants, you know, the reason why the Lazio owner will pay so much money to buy Crespo is naturally not just because others are stupid and have a lot of money, but there are many considerations.

First of all, the addition of Crespo can effectively strengthen the overall strength of Lazio's forward line. After all, Lazio's current strikers are not very safe, Salas and Inzaghi Jr. are not consistent in their goalscoring efficiency, and the only reliable Kros has proved to be the best fit for him in a super substitute rather than a starter. Therefore, after landing in Serie A, Crespo, who scored 22 league goals last season, is naturally the best target.

Secondly, Crespo's transfer to Lazio for a record value is bound to attract more fans, so they will start to pay attention to the Blue Eagles, which is conducive to the club's market development and further enhances Lazio's influence in the world. After all, the eyeball effect can be said to be the best, and at the same time, it is also the most effective means of publicity and promotion.

Last but not least, a Serie A title is far from satisfying Craniotti. With a lot of liquidity in the listing circle, he can't wait to create a luxury division that can rival the top three in the north, and even overthrow the aging Fiorentina, and make the Blue Eagles a new generation of hegemon in Italian football!

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Crespo's transfer to Lazio was like a fuse, which completely detonated the European transfer market this summer!
