Chapter 133: Franco Sensi
Zhang Tiehan has been following his transfer issue and was furious when he learned that Chelsea had stopped negotiations and that their new manager Jose Mourinho had publicly stated that he was too good to enter Chelsea.
For Mourinho, it is just a comment on a player, but it is an insult to Zhang Tiehan!
He kept Mourinho in his heart!
"Jose Mourinho!" Zhang Tiehan kept chanting the name, and at the same time marked Chelsea with an 'X' in his heart.
It wasn't that he was scrambling to join Chelsea, but that Chelsea asked him to move in the past, and now it is Chelsea who have withdrawn the negotiations, which is like playing with himself as a clown, not taking himself seriously at all.
I'll make you regret it!
Zhang Tiehan kept roaring in his heart, and at the same time he was also thinking about his transfer, Wigan Athletic must not be able to stay, although the relationship with the club is very good, but he also knows that Wigan Athletic wants to sell himself for Lu, the reason is that the club's funds are insufficient, they are not ready to promote the Premier League at all, this season's results surprised the club, so they encountered financial problems.
It must be admitted that Wigan Athletic has been moving in a healthy direction.
In two seasons, they were suddenly promoted from the English Second Division to the Premier League, which made them a little passive, even Nelson would feel that the club's development was out of control, the club had encountered financial problems, and had to find a way to solve it, Ridell would definitely not be able to leave Wigan Athletic, so as long as he left.
Zhang Tiehan felt pity.
He didn't want to go, but now he couldn't help but go.
If the club wanted to sell him, what if he insisted on staying at the club? It will make the fans happy, but it will not be good for him personally or for the club.
He had no choice but to leave.
Where to go?
Zhang Tiehan felt at a loss. He set his sights on Liverpool, after all, Liverpool also sincerely wants to get him, and is willing to pay a transfer fee of nearly 15 million euros for it, and it should be a good choice to go to Liverpool by himself, there are also many stars there, such as Gerrard, Kaladze, Crouch and so on.
Another point. Liverpool are England's team.
After being in England for so long, Zhang Tiehan has been very accustomed to the style of English football, and if he goes to other leagues, it will definitely take a little time to adapt, after all, the styles of each league are different, and it is good to stay in England.
Liverpool is also not far from Manchester, Lola is in Manchester, and most of the friends he knows are also in Manchester.
It's a good choice.
Zhang Tiehan thought.
……
At the same time, other clubs are also negotiating the transfer of Zhang Tiehan.
Chelsea dropped out of the race. Stuttgart is actually not so eager for Zhang Tiehan, which can be seen from the fact that their offer has not been improved, and now that Chelsea have withdrawn, they are even more stubborn in biting the price.
In contrast, Roma and Liverpool are very sincere.
Inter Milan seems to have a wait-and-see attitude, in fact, Zhang Tiehan has never considered Inter Milan, and that team seems to be a black hole for stars. Their stars are bigger than one big name, but their results are worse and worse season by season.
This contrast. It makes many stars reluctant to go to Inter Milan.
Zhang Tiehan is the same, Milan has a lot of influence, but Inter Milan is really not a good choice, if he goes to Italy, he will also choose Rome.
……
President of the Club of Rome, Franco Sensi, who is already seventy-seven years old. Sitting in the office, with one hand on his forehead, agonizing about the club's problems.
Roma had a good season last season.
Although they have not made much progress in European competitions, they have been very good in the league, with 21 wins, 8 draws and 5 defeats to finish second in Serie A. They are just seven points behind Serie A champions AC Milan, who have all but dominated Italy in recent years, which also allows them to qualify for the Champions League this season.
Rome seems to be thriving.
But in fact, Sensi knows that the team's current problems are very big, especially when the championship coach Capello leaves, Roma can be described as leaderless, and so far, he has not found a qualified successor to Capello.
It's not just a matter of coaching, Roma have had a few big players leave the squad in the summer, and the most important job for Roma is to add quality players to the squad before finding a coach.
There are a lot of great youngsters in Italy, and there are quite a few in the Roma youth team.
But that's not enough.
Franco Sensi has run the club of Roma all his life, and he is very clear about the current situation of the club, and even some of the problems of team building, the reason why Roma cannot win the league championship and cannot strive for higher honors is still the team itself.
The overall strength is weaker than AC Milan, Juventus, Inter Milan, and even the city's rivals Lazio, which is only one of the problems, and more importantly, Totti's partner.
Francisco Totti is Roma's most important player, he is Roma's tactical core, spiritual leader and symbol of the team.
Totti has been at Roma for 10 years, debuting in Serie A at the age of 16 in March 1993, and at the age of 18 he was already in the starting line-up and has since replaced former Roman prince Giannini in the hearts of Roma fans.
In 1998, Totti made his debut for the Italian national team and was instrumental in Italy's final at Euro 2000.
Totti's personal ability to achieve these achievements is unquestionable.
He has very good physical fitness, super anti-collision ability and breakthrough ability, and a tough style of play. Whether for club or country, Totti is the best choice for the midfield position. Its technique is delicate, its vision is broad, and its long and short passes are precise and creative. Compared with the average midfielder, Totti has a strong scoring ability, a strong sense of shooting, and superb shooting skills, making him often the opponent's most difficult finisher.
In the past two seasons, former coach Fabio Capello has been moving Totti's position forward.
There's no way around it. Sensi has been trying to find a good partner for Totti, but it has not worked very well, neither Montella nor Cassano can really match Totti, in fact, Totti is more suitable for the midfield position. But sometimes, he has to play as a striker, even as a striker.
Sensi believes that if this problem can be solved and a player who can actually score goals and become Totti's partner, then whoever becomes Roma manager should be assured of results.
So Senxi took a fancy to Zhang Tiehan!
Before April this year, Senxi had no idea who Zhang Tiehan was. But the scouts below provided him with the news, and he also watched the final between Wigan Athletic and Arsenal in person, and since then, Zhang Tiehan has occupied a big place in Sensi's heart.
Excellent headers, excellent long-range shots, strong body, such a player, if such a player is paired with a master of football art like Totti, the two are not as simple as one plus one equals two!
Sensi can be sure!
So Rome joined the competition for daring Zhang Tiehan. But there was no guarantee that the young man would come to Italy, which was a stranger to him.
Sensi thought about it for a long time. Firm in resolve.
……
Manchester, Wigan, North England.
Zhang Zhenren was coming out of Wigan Athletic Club, he went to see the latest offer about Zhang Tiehan today, and talked a few words about Zhang Tiehan's treatment with several club representatives, and then prepared to go to lunch.
Life has been hectic lately, but he enjoys it.
Now wherever he goes, he will be welcomed. And he can also be treated well, which is something that a student at the University of Munich will never enjoy, all because of Zhang Tiehan, Zhang Tiehan behaves well, and he is naturally popular as an agent.
But I want to really get on the road to the truth of football agents. Zhang Zhenren also knew that he had just begun.
He has a lot to learn.
"When I walk on the lonely road, when will you appear in the distance, oops~~~ The goddess in my heart, I am intoxicated by your appearance, but when will you appear......" The mobile phone rang for a while, Zhang Zhenren liked this German country song very much, and he felt that he was speaking his heart.
Turn on your phone and an unfamiliar number appears.
Zhang Zhenren frowned, but still pressed the answer button, and a slightly old and kind tone appeared in the microphone, "Hello, are you Mr. Zhang, Zhang Tiehan's agent?" ”
Skimming English, more crappy Chinese......
Among them, the pronunciation of 'Zhang Tiehan', Zhang Zhenren took half a day to distinguish, well, it is difficult to talk about these things with a foreigner, especially a foreign old man who has skimmed English.
Zhang Zhenren still replied politely, "Yes, sir, my name is Zhang Zhenren, and I am Zhang Tiehan's agent." ”
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm Franco Sensi, President of the Club of Rome."
Well? Who is it?
Zhang Zhenren was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and the other party seemed to be saying ...... President of the Club of Rome?
As Zhang Tiehan's agent, Zhang Zhenren has made an early acquaintance with the big clubs in Europe, and Franco Sensina is one of the things that must be understood, especially now that the Roma team is also involved in Zhang Tiehan's transfer.
Franco Sensi is definitely the legendary president of Italian football!
Zhang Zhenren immediately became a lot more polite, but he also asked directly, "Mr. Sensi, hello, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
Sensi was silent for a moment before he said, "Mr. Zhang, I am in Manchester now, and I want to talk to you about Zhang Tiehan's transfer in person." ”
What the......?
Zhang Zhenren was even more surprised, Sensi is in Manchester, what is he here for? Do you still make a trip to England specifically for the transfer of your cousin? Lie!
But Zhang Zhenren still believed it.
His mobile phone number, in addition to classmates and relatives know the way, only the football people who have dealt with him know the way, and the person who can know his number should not be a liar, and he is in Wigan, and it is not a problem to go to Manchester.
Whether it's a liar or not, you won't know if you go on a trip.
Zhang Zhenren immediately agreed, and after the two agreed, he went to Manchester by car. (To be continued......)
