Chapter 662 - Summer Transfer (4)

PS: First of all, I would like to ask you for a recommendation vote, thank you for your support......

After the news of Toney's transfer to Vicenza for $10 million was announced, many Fiorentina fans sent their best wishes to the young centre-forward, wishing him a new chapter in Vicenza and reaching new heights in his career!

With the sincere blessings of the fans, Tony's departure seems quite warm, and in stark contrast, it is Davies, the Dutch boar, who chose to defect to Fiorentina's arch-rival Juventus.

Fiorentina fans are quite tolerant of the transfer of players, and they can understand and accept these reasons for leaving the team in order to get the position of absolute main force and better personal treatment. But this time, they expressed strong dissatisfaction with Davies's transfer to Juventus, and even some radical fans thought it was a betrayal of Fiorentina by the Dutch!

This is due to the poor relationship between the two clubs, Fiorentina and Juventus, which led to such a result.

After all, in the minds of all Fiorentina fans, Juventus is undoubtedly an out-and-out bully, repeatedly using various means to poach the main players and even pillars of other teams, strengthening themselves and playing a role in attacking opponents - from Robert Baggio, to Iuliano, Pesoto and Tacchinadi, and now Davies.

Unlike Baggio and Pesoto who were forced to transfer to Juventus for some objective reasons, Davies took the initiative to ask the club to sell him to Juventus, and also put on a posture of not going to Juventus, refusing to negotiate contracts with other teams, making Fiorentina's representatives extremely passive in the transfer negotiations with Juventus.

Therefore, Fiorentina fans did not hesitate to label Davies, who took the initiative to join the Bianconeri and put pressure on the club, helping Mo Lao Fox to lower the transfer fee, as a "traitor"!

Fiorentina also expressed strong dissatisfaction with Juventus' poaching behavior in public, saying that Moggi's malicious competition behavior seriously damaged the relationship between the two clubs; At the same time, Antonioni, one of the general managers of the club, criticized Davies's professionalism in public, believing that the wild boar's practice greatly damaged the interests of Fiorentina and was not worthy of being a professional player.

Davies, one of the parties involved, doesn't care about this, in his opinion, as a professional footballer, of course, he has to be responsible for his career, since Juventus can offer better conditions, then why do he have to nest in Fiorentina? The championship has long been enough, and now is the time to think about making a lot of money.

At the same time, Zhuang Mingge rarely came forward to express his opinion on this matter this time, but chose to hide behind the scenes and not say a word. As I said before, Davies is not an indispensable player for Fiorentina, who are already at the pinnacle of European football, and Fiorentina's defensive system will not collapse because of his departure.

Moreover, after having Makelele as a midfielder on the defensive end, Davis's storage has become dispensable - Redondo and Effenberg can be plugged in to participate in the attack, and full-time defensive players include Makelele, Gattuso, Zanetti and others, in this case, Davies's position in the team is naturally much worse than before.

The most important thing is that Zhuang Mingge, who is a traverser, clearly knows that from this summer, Juventus, which has always been known for its stability, will start to show signs of chaos. The shrewd Mo Lao Fox will also make frequent tricks in the next few years, and several large-scale reinforcements in a row have been lost; Pierrot will also lose his former aura due to excessive psychological pressure, and his state will plummet; At the same time, the aging of the main players has also greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the Bianconeri, and their strength has declined year by year.

Therefore, Davies, who joined Juventus in his original history, is powerless to change anything in this situation.

It is precisely for this reason that although he was very disgusted by Moggi once again reaching out to Fiorentina, Zhuang Mingge still sent Davies to Turin City very quickly, and he did not want the Dutchman to affect the atmosphere of the team and delay the team's summer preparations.

At the same time, the old foxes of Moji, who has almost confirmed the acquisition of Davies, are not complacent because of this successful poaching, and the Juventus general manager is still in his office, looking for a player who fits the team's style of play.

Juventus can be said to be a constant in this summer, first of all, the manager Lippi, who has been in charge of the team for four years, was fired because he missed the league championship trophy for several consecutive years, although Moggi poached Ancelotti from Parma early to be the manager of Juventus, but this change of manager will inevitably bring some turmoil to the team.

Then there is the sudden slump in form of Prince Pierrot after the World Cup, and Pierrot has not been able to regain the aura of previous seasons, whether in competition or training.

At the same time, Zinedine Zidane, who is seen as the culprit behind France's quarter-final exit in the quarter-finals of the World Cup, is also beginning to show signs of a dip in form amid endless accusations from fans and pundits.

The sharpest knife and the core of the organization on the offensive end are both **, which is the general manager of Juventus, Moggi. That's why Mo Lao Fox thought of creating a heavyweight transfer at this time, so that the team that was fluctuating in people's hearts could be stabilized again.

It was at this time that Davis, who had been an excellent performer at the World Cup in France, came into Moggi's sights.

Defensively aggressive, accurate positioning, solid fundamentals, and a good long-range shot, Davies is undoubtedly an excellent candidate for Moggie, who has been worried about Deschamps' successor.

Davies, who has already won the championship, also feels that he should change places and strive for higher personal treatment and team status after a successful World Cup journey.

As a result, the ambitious Dutch Boar and Juventus, who were looking for reinforcements all over the world, hit it off, and set off a big earthquake in the transfer market in the summer of 1998!

To the buzz of Fiorentina fans, Davies left the Purple Lily, where he had played for three years, joined the Bianconeri for a low price of $10 million, and signed his name on a five-year contract with an annual salary of $3.5 million.

Although 10 million US dollars is a lot, judging from the performance of the Dutch wild boar in Florence in the past few years and the performance in this year's World Cup in France, this price is obviously too cheap for Davis.

After picking up a big bargain in the transfer market, Juventus's midfield hardness has increased, but in the Serie A championship odds given by major ** companies, the Bianconeri, whose main lineup is aging, has not risen but fallen, and has fallen behind Inter Milan, which has continuously signed strong reinforcements, ranking third on the list!
