"Congratulations, John. Congratulations, Diego. ”

John. Thierry Henry and Simeone began to discuss some issues for next season. It's okay to talk about, John. Henry endorses Simeone's team-building plan. Later John. Thierry Henry and Simeone's sister discuss some of Simeone's treatment for next season. It wasn't until they were almost done talking that Rist interjected.

"Thank you for your help."

"Nothing."

Simeone's salary is not high, and his salary in Liverpool is only 2.2 million pounds, which is not ranked at all in the Premier League. In front of him like Manuel Pellegrini, Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Redknapp, Martin. O'Neal, Hughes, and Moyes all have higher salaries than Simeone. But Simeone himself is very happy, because for Simeone, the platform is different.

After a few simple words, Simone turned to John. Henry said: "Liverpool's strength is still not weak. Chairman Thierry Henry, I'll talk about the players that Liverpool have to keep next season. Goalkeeper Reina, Ague and Carragher in the backline, Gerrard, Lucas, Lennon in the midfield. Say it again, Glenn. Johnson, Kuyt, Benayoun are all effective supplements. ”

Simeone was and John. Thierry Henry spoke, but Simeone was speaking to Liverpool's sporting director Comori next to him. Comoli didn't say anything, remembering what Simeone meant.

"Chairman Henry, how much transfer fee can I have next season?"

John. Henry looked at Simeone and said, "Diego, I'm not Abramovich, I'm not Mansour. I was able to offer a transfer fee of up to 40 million euros, which of course is not included after the transfer of Liverpool players. ”

Simeone immediately calculated in his mind. Henry's transfer fee of 40 million euros is not low. If you put it a few years ago, the owner gave the club a transfer fee of 40 million euros, which is already quite high.

It's a pity that it's not the same now. With Real Madrid, a top giant, and Manchester City, an upstart who have speculated on the price of players, 40 million euros is nothing. After all, it's an era when any defender is fired for 30 million euros or 40 million euros. Slightly better talents, now when they are all counted up to 30 million, 40 million euros is really nothing.

Simeone wasn't disappointed, though. Because Henry was not a predator like Abramovich and Mansour in the first place. Simeone had been mentally prepared for this for a long time. And now Liverpool has a lot of good players, but they are all not doing well in Liverpool, waiting to be put up for sale.

Just like Robbie. Keane, Aquilani, Babel, Insuja, Voronin, these players can also raise a lot of money if they are sold. That's it. Simeone still has enough money to bring in reinforcements. According to preliminary calculations, Simeone believes that he should have nearly 80 million euros or so to bring in reinforcements this summer.

"Coach Simeone, do you have a goal for next season?"

"Yes."

Comoli's question, Simeone gave a very positive answer. Then he looked at Comoli and said: "I want to bring in a couple of players from Sparta Prague, they are all young, but they are already good enough. They will be the cornerstone of Liverpool's resurgence. ”

Simeone doesn't shy away from his thoughts at all. It is very certain that he wants to poach people from his old club and bring in his own descendants. Comori understood what Simeone meant, and it is very common for a new coach to take over with his own lineage, which is very common in European football.

There are so many benefits to leading your own lineage. Able to stand in an unfamiliar environment. You can use your own descendants to control the locker room. Of course, because you are familiar with the players of the lineage, you can use it as you go. Even if he is a world-class handsome, he loves to bring his own lineage, which is not unusual.

"Who?"

"Nevin. Subertic, Arturo. Vidal. Marco. Royce, Robert. Lewandowski. ”

As Simeone finished speaking, Comori couldn't help but take a breath. Because Simeone said that these players are indeed very concerned by the current European football world, it is of course very good to be able to introduce them to Liverpool. Even now Liverpool doesn't even have to play in the Champions League, which is very unattractive to them. After all, the teams that are paying attention to them now are basically European giants who can play in the Champions League. Liverpool want to compete, and they don't necessarily compete with other giants. If Simeone can lead them to office. It's certainly a very good thing for Liverpool.

But it's also a big problem. What kind of club is Sparta Prague, one of the number one black spots in European football, and Porto together with the "double black of European football". And Sparta Prague is considered darker than Porto. The players who came out of their clubs, the value is really more expensive than the other.

Not to mention Suarez, Thiago. Players like Silva who are more than 40 million euros, others such as Hamsik, Nemanja Matic, Kompany, Ivanovic, and Karaov, who are worth less than 20 million euros.

Introduce the four people that Simone said. If you add the agent's commission, the player's signing fee, etc., you can't get it without a hundred million euros. Where is there so much money in Liverpool now. Even if Henry subsidizes 40 million euros, it will not be enough in terms of money.

"Coach Simeone, they're all too expensive. We at Liverpool can't afford the transfer fee for all four of them. ”

Now the new owner has arrived, and Komori has been retained. So Comogli is on the side of the new boss. He had to think about his new boss. Although Comori has not investigated, the transfer fee of these players is definitely not something that Liverpool can afford.

Rist also nodded. With Liverpool's financial resources, it is really unlikely that they will bring in so many players. Rist couldn't have been because he was with John. When Henry is in business, he has to lower the price of players. After all, it's all dominoes, and Rist and Liverpool do business and cut prices, so how will they do business with other clubs in the future?

Even if Rist and Liverpool conceal the value of the player, where in the world is there an impermeable wall. Other clubs are still able to know. Once you know, it will be difficult to do business in the future.

"If I can convince Lister, I don't think this transfer will be too much of a problem. Isn't it, Rist? ”

"Me?"

Rist looked at Simeone and didn't answer. Because Rist didn't know how to answer, after all, Rist would never agree to a price reduction. Simeone said aggressively: "I've heard that Premier League clubs rarely use instalments. But in La Liga, it's a very common thing. ”

Simeone didn't finish, and Rist already understood. What Simeone means is that Liverpool are running short on transfer fees this summer. It is possible to bring them in the form of installments.

It is true that compared to the Premier League, La Liga clubs generally use the form of instalment payment. This also has to do with the economic strength of both sides. Premier League clubs have money. Even those small and medium-sized clubs are not short of money, and buying a player of tens of millions of pounds is not too much of a burden for them. They are very bold in buying players, not to mention millions or tens of millions of transfers, even tens of millions of euros of transfers are directly filmed.

But La Liga is different. La Liga is very poor. In the current La Liga, except for Real Madrid and Barcelona, other clubs are basically not rich. All of them are a lot of debt, and few can earn more than 50 million euros a year. Therefore, they are all paid in installments. Even if it's a small transfer of millions of euros, they pay in installments. This has become a tradition in La Liga, so much so that Real Madrid and Barcelona sometimes transfer in this form. It's not that they don't have money, it's that they're used to it.

Rist looked at John. Henry, looked at Comory again. Actually, for Lister, it doesn't matter. Anyway, no matter how you pay, you need to give money in the end. The money can't run again. Even Rist really hopes that Liverpool will be short of money and will not be able to repay the money on time.

Many people say that it is the uncle who owes the money. But Rist is desperate that many European football clubs owe him money and can't pay it back. At that time, Lister will be free to meddle in these clubs, and they will not be able to say anything.

Rist loves clubs that are short of money. Just like Dortmund, it was precisely because of the difficulties that they borrowed Rist's money. And Rist used that opportunity to intervene in the Dortmund academy. There is also Southampton in the Premier League, and Rist is also taking advantage of their club's difficult opportunities. Take control of their academy in one fell swoop. If a top giant like Rist owes money, Est is expected to be able to wake up with a smile in his dreams. But Rist knew it was unlikely.

"It's a good idea."

Comory looked at John. Henry nodded, thinking that Simeone's plan was okay. Then he said to Lister: "Can Sparta Prague agree to such a transfer?" ”

Cuomo asked Rist in an inquiring tone. Because there is no shortage of buyers for Sparta Prague's players, after this season's Champions League performance, there will be many giants and strong teams who want to bring in Sparta Prague players. Maybe they won't accept such an installment plan. Because once any problem arises in the middle in the future, it will be a very complicated thing to solve.

It's like Lazio's Mendieta in Valencia. At that time, the instalment payment was adopted, but unfortunately soon Lazio's economy was not good. Finally facing bankruptcy. The subsequent transfer fee is gone. Even if Valencia sues Lazio, it is useless, Lazio has no money, it is no money. In desperation, Valencia could only use Lazio's players to offset the account, but unfortunately those Lazio stars were as unaccustomed as Mendieta after arriving in Spain, and finally Valencia also suffered heavy losses.

"It shouldn't be a big problem."

Reesette nodded. Subotic, Vidal, Reus, Lewandowski, if these people are in Liverpool just after the transfer, this platform is very big. It just so happens that Liverpool is in the process of rebuilding now. The four of them have worked together for many years, and there is no problem of cooperation. As long as they work well with Liverpool's original star, Steven Gerrard, then Liverpool's rebuilding process will be much easier.

"That's great."

Simeone was delighted. In fact, if he could, Simeone would really want to bring all the Sparta Prague players to Liverpool. Like Hulk, Benatia, Lovren, Pastore. He wanted to bring it to Liverpool. But this is not realistic, so he can only find some players who are suitable for Liverpool.

Liverpool have Steven Gerrard in midfield, so Pastore is unlikely. In addition, Lennon on the right side of Liverpool is the main force of Liverpool, so Hulk can only give up.

But even if he was able to bring four people, Simeone was already very happy. Subertic is a central defender that Simeone likes and is very fond of, and is a central defender who can be the heart of the defence. Vidal, on the other hand, can go up and down, and is very good in attack and defense. As for Reus and Lewandowski, Simeone brought in to improve Liverpool's current attack. With all four of them, Simeone is even more confident about next season at Liverpool.

What's more, these guys are young. Subertic is twenty-one, Vidal is twenty-three, Reus is twenty-one, and Lewandowski is twenty-two. It's all a group of talented players.

"Good. Sparta Prague can reach the last four of the Champions League and I believe Liverpool can also return to their former glory under Diego's leadership. I hope that in two seasons we will be able to secure a Champions League place for Liverpool. ”

John. Henry has been in the sports world for many years and knows what it means to be quick but not to be up. So his goal for Simeone is simple: to lead Liverpool back into the Champions League within two years.
