Chapter 170: Arsenal in the transfer market
Arsenal manager Wenger's actions made everyone feel a little incredible, they didn't expect Wenger to be so resolute in this matter, Wenger directly cut the mess, he will not give the initiative to other people at all, now Wenger occupies the initiative, he is an old man.
Nasri is leaving, because he wants to get a high salary, because he wants to show himself on a stage where he can show his talents more; Cesc Fabregas is also leaving because he wants to play with his childhood team-mates and he wants to get back to his favourite team.
All of these can be done, since they want to leave Arsenal and leave the Emirates Stadium, there is no reason why Wenger should not let them go; Arsenal have already achieved great results in the last two seasons, although Arsene Wenger is hopeful that the team can continue to reach new heights. However, Arsene Wenger also knows that the most important thing for a team is to be united, and when the players are fully committed to a goal, they will be more competitive; If you are separated from the dressing room, it will be difficult for the team to play at its best.
Forcing Fabregas and Nasri to stay is a ticking time bomb for Arsenal, and no one can guarantee what catastrophic consequences will be if the conflict erupts; So now it's very simple, Arsenal are not completely out of competitiveness without them, Arsenal are still attractive in the transfer market. Perhaps their replacement will not be able to completely fill the void after the departure of Nasri and Cesc Fabregas, but Wenger can ensure that the team is still quite competitive at this time, because Xiao Qing is the absolute core of Arsenal, because it is relatively simple to build a good team around Xiao Qing.
Nasri's forced palace obviously didn't work very well. What the current Manchester City team needs if they want to take Nasri is a transfer fee; Arsenal also have potential targets. Maybe when Nasri's transfer fee just arrived on Arsenal's books. The Gunners will immediately bring in new players in the transfer market.
Xiao Qing really didn't expect Wenger to be so resolute, he really didn't expect that Wenger could make a crazy decision in the transfer market; Although Nasri's forcing made Arsenal a little passive, the old Jianghu Wenger was able to control this matter within a certain range in time. Xiao Qing is also very happy now, maybe the strength of Arsenal in the new season will be affected, but Xiao Qing dares to guarantee that Arsenal is still one of the most competitive teams, they will not lose the qualification to compete for the championship because of the departure of some players, they are still extremely strong defending champions!
Now that Arteta has arrived at the Emirates Stadium, it is also announced that Cesc Fabregas's return to Barcelona has completely entered the countdown; Whether you want to or not. Arsenal have really sold their captain again.
After Arsenal took the lead in announcing a transfer agreement with Barcelona, Cesc Fabregas flew to Barcelona, and everything about the transfer of Xiaofa in the past two years has settled. The soap opera is finally over, Arsenal announced on their official website that they have reached an agreement with Barcelona on the transfer of Cesc Fabregas, and at the same time, Barcelona also confirmed the news on their official website, which means that Xiaofa is about to end his eight-year career as a Gunners and officially return to Barcelona.
He is the youngest first-team player and the youngest goalkeeper to make a name for themselves. He is also Arsenal captain; However, Fabregas has now officially signed a contract with Barcelona after successfully passing the medical examination of the club at the club's headquarters office. A number of senior club executives, including Barcelona president Rosell and vice-president Bartomeu, club directors Subisare and Samley, attended the signing ceremony of Xiaofa, which also shows that Xiaofa's transfer is indeed different from other players. Barcelona takes this very seriously.
Xiaofa's transfer fee reached 40 million euros, which is really not a high price, at least compared to other top players, Xiaofa's transfer fee is really not too expensive; Because Xiaofa is very determined to leave Arsenal, because Barcelona also wants to lower the price. However, more than 30 million is obviously impossible, at least Arsenal will not accept Barcelona's offer, after all, Xiaofa has won the Champions League and the league twice in a row in Arsenal!
Xiaofa's departure completely announced that Arsenal has now completely entered the era of Xiao Qing, and Arsenal's determination to build a team around Xiao Qing is also undoubted; Although Xiaofa has only been the core of the midfield in the past two seasons, he can also bring a certain threat to Xiao Qing, because Xiaofa has been at Arsenal for a longer time, and he has become the organizer and core of Arsenal. And now, everything is Xiao Qing's final say, no one can pose any threat to Xiao Qing in tactics, even if it is Fan Persie, who is very good, he is just Xiao Qing's helper.
The soap opera of Cesc Fabregas's transfer has finally come to an end, and Xiaofa is now satisfied to return to Barcelona and his favorite club; For Barcelona, it is also another improvement in the depth of the bench, and it can be regarded as a comeback, although it was lost in the Champions League final, but now they have poached Arsenal's midfield commander.
Now it's Nasri, who has been linked with Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and other teams during this time, and now it seems that the deep-pocketed Manchester City is likely to stand out because the Arab consortium's cheques are thick enough, because they can get enough salaries there, and because they can display their ambitions and ambitions there.
Nasri and Arsenal have basically announced that the front edge is over, and leaving Arsenal is only a countdown; Xiao Qing is also a little concerned about this transfer, he knows that in such a situation, Nasri will definitely leave, Xiao Qing is now more concerned about where Nasri will go, Xiao Qing is paying attention to what Arsenal will do next.
Among them, Arsenal's rotation player Eboue also switched to the Turkish Super League giants Galatasaray, and he also brought a transfer fee of 3.5 million to Arsenal, a very good transfer fee. Having completely lost his place at Arsenal, the departure of the 28-year-old would be a good option for the 28-year-old, who is sure to get more pay and more playing time at Galatasaray.
The tug-of-war over Nasri's transfer continues, although Arsenal does not have a strong determination to keep Nasri, but Arsenal is really not giving an inch in the transfer market; Manchester City are lacking players, not money, and Wenger naturally hopes to make a good fortune at this time, and he will continue to strengthen the team in the transfer market, at least at left-back, he will choose to fill the vacancy of Klich.
For 35 million euros, Manchester City completed their second poaching of Arsenal this summer, and they finally got their wish to take Nasri. Nasri joined Arsenal in 2008 and after becoming a Gunners, Nasri quickly progressed to become an important player in the team, and his talent was on display, earning him a place in the French national team. It was because of Nasri's outstanding performance that Mancini's Manchester City launched a fierce attack on Nasri in this summer transfer market, and finally got the French midfielder after a tug-of-war. And the all-round ability of Nasri's midfield will allow Manchester City to further improve their strength.
Arsene Wenger's pockets have thickened, and Arsenal's financial pressure has decreased a lot in the past two seasons, because Arsenal can win more games, which is not only bonuses, but also shares, sponsorships, etc., and now with some good transfer fees, Wenger naturally does not need to be so buttoned, he needs the team to continue to be competitive in the new season, then they need to ensure that the team has enough squad depth.
Yellow Submarine Villarreal midfielder Cazorla was poached by Arsene Wenger, although Arsenal paid a transfer fee of 20 million, but compared to Wenger's income in the transfer market, such a payment is also worth it.
Now that the midfield has some filling, then it's on the back line; Although Klich can be a headache and untrustworthy at times, he is a really good left-back. There are really few left-backs these days, especially those who are good; Although Ashley Cole was once considered the most popular left-back at Arsenal, Ashley Cole is now wearing a Chelsea shirt and Arsene Wenger now needs to continue to think about the team's left-back.
Don't think that Wenger's purchase of experienced veterans like Arteta and Cazorla means that he has 'reformed his ways', Wenger still has a habit of developing from his bones, and now he has once again exploded into such a habit that is considered a 'pedophile', and Wenger's choice in the left-back position is surprising.
Wenger's small hoe stretched out to Bayern Munich, the old rival of the past two years, Bayern's left-back first choice is naturally Lahm, which is also one of the most haode left-backs, but Wenger certainly has no possibility to buy. So Arsene Wenger's choice is for the young left-back, Davy. Alab!
The Bayern loanee is only 19 years old now, but his potential and ability are really good; During the period when he was out on loan, he was also at Xiao Qing's old club Hoffenheim, where he performed well.
Alaba has a lot of potential, Bayern is naturally reluctant to let go, but there is Lahm there, it is difficult for Alaba to get more appearances, plus a young player has a transfer fee of 11 million, Bayern has no reason to refuse, because no one knows if Alaba can play. (To be continued......)
