Chapter 242: Announcing the transfer

In fact, Li Zihan also has a good impression of Arsenal, first of all, their youth training is doing well. Secondly, his football philosophy is more like art, but he hasn't won a championship in the last eight years.

Of course, Li Zihan actually went to Wenger. All Shijie knows Wenger's golden finger for cultivating young players, and Li Zihan certainly knows it, and he is only 19 years old. Even if you make a mistake, there is a chance to make amends.

It's not like Kaka, who was twenty-seven years old when he moved to Real Madrid. Officially the year of the fight, the age of Xingyao Shijie. The past few years at Real Madrid have not been satisfactory, and it will be the year of the return to AC Milan four years later. His career has also come to an end.

And Arsenal is also very sincere, and their transfer manager personally invited Li Zihan during the winter break last season. And now Arsene Wenger has come in person and told him the truth. He didn't open his mouth to promise anything, which shows that Wenger didn't seem to fool him. Of course, in general, Wenger's character would not fool his players.

After confirming that he was now an Arsenal player, Li Zihan made a phone call to John Dassler. He politely rejected Dortmund's offer and told him that he had accepted Arsenal's contract. and then sent his apologies, Li Zihan was a little embarrassed for not giving John face, but he thought that friendship is friendship, and professional football is professional football.

And John was not angry, although with a little regret. But he still supported Li Zihan's decision and sent his blessings.

Zuihou Li Zihan said goodbye to his teammates who had returned to the training base, and Pogba was very reluctant to leave. said that after Li Zihan left, he would be lonely alone, which made Li Zihan cold and broke out in a cold sweat.

Pirlo, who had gone through the wind and waves, hugged him with a smile and then sent his blessings. and told him not to lose himself at any time, and to always remember that everything Li Zihan has now is brought to him by the football he loves. Don't let him down at any time to train hard, keep his composure, and build relationships with his new teammates.

Vidal also stepped forward to hug Li Zihan, and he jokingly said that he wanted to create five consecutive championships for Juventus with Li Zihan, but he didn't expect Li Zihan to be a "deserter".

The first-team teammates sent their blessings, even the new signings and Li Zihan did not know Tevez and Llorente were not excluded.

Zuihou Li Zihan also called Yakquinta and told him about the transfer. The two friends got together at a restaurant in Milan, and Iaquinta gave him a lot of experience.

Iaquinta announced his retirement at the end of last season, with no reports from reporters and no tearful fan support. When he first came into contact with football, he was fluttering, he just liked football, and then he joined the youth training system of a professional club.

After saying goodbye to Equinta, Li Zihan immediately called Jacherini: "Hey, Jakai. I think we'll meet again soon. ”

Giaccherini paused: "What do you mean?" ”

'I'm coming to England, London, Arsenal. In the future, we will be opponents, and when you see me in your team ten or eight balls or something, don't beat me! Hey, hey, hey."

Giaccherini: ""

After hanging up the phone, Giaccherini had a bit of a headache.

It was in mid-August that Arsenal won over two legs of their Champions League qualifying opponents. Official announcement: "We are delighted to announce that we have reached a transfer agreement with Juventus in Serie A. Former Juventus 19-year-old Chinese goalscorer Li Zihan has moved to Arsenal and will wear the Arsenal shirt for the next five seasons. The whole Arsenal team, the coaching staff and the club's management welcomed Lee to join him and hoped that he could go to glory with Arsenal. ”

At the same time, Juventus FC announced the departure of Li Zihan and thanked him for his dedication to Juventus this season.

Of course, the 20 million euros he brought and the terms of the next transfer were not said.

As soon as this news came out, it shocked many people, and they were surprised that it was not Li Zihan who left Juventus, because everyone could actually see that Li Zihan would not stay in Juventus for long. They were surprised that it was Arsenal, and it was Arsenal who paid 20 million euros.

Zhan Jun: "Shoot!" Arsenal finally shot!! I didn't expect to 'deceive' Li Zihan as soon as he made a move. ”

Hurhouse: "Arsenal's $70 million is finally on the surface, though it's only two-sevenths of it"

The London Post: "Arsenal have spent a lot of money on talented goalscorer Lee, how long has it been since they last spent €20 million on a player? ”

Sky Sports: "Lee joined Arsenal and only Arsenal stood still when many competitors were bringing in reinforcements. Even new boss David Moyes' Manchester United dug into the corners of their old clubs and brought Fellaini from the Toffees to the Theatre of Dreams. Arsene Wenger finally couldn't take it anymore and signed one of the most talented young players of the moment. ”

Italian football: "The departure of another talented young player from Serie A speaks volumes about how Serie A is becoming less and less competitive. With Lamela and Li Zihan gone this summer, who will be next season? ”

As for domestic fans, they are also supportive of Li Zihan's transfer. After all, it is an indisputable fact that the influence of Serie A is gradually declining, while the influence of the Premier League is in full swing.

Of course, more fans are also worried, because it is no secret that Li Zihan's body is his shortcoming. In the Premier League, it is a world of physical confrontation, although jishu-type players are also popular, but the premise is also to carry it.

And what about Juventus fans in Italy? They don't know what kind of mood they are in, and the addition of Llorente and Tevez can make them "weak" and maybe they will be able to take the little blue pill from now on. But Li Zihan's departure made them a little disappointed, Li Zihan's performance this season they watched in their eyes, and more often than not, it was this young player who had just come of age to jump out to save the team.

Some fans think that Juventus is short-sighted in doing this, and Li Zihan's talent can almost be seen by everyone. Maybe he will be the second Del Piero and the second Roberto Baggio.

At the press conference, Conte told reporters about Li Zihan's transfer: "Yes, Li and Jakai are both very good players. I don't want to lose any of them, but many times it takes necessary sacrifices. If we want to bring in new players, we have to sell players, we don't have that much cash and salary budget. It's as simple as that, both Lee and Jakai are working hard, and it's not a matter of their ability to give them up, it's a matter of the entire squad and tactics. And the arrears of Serie A clubs are well known, and the economy is sluggish and they have to sell players if they want to improve the squad. I hope they can do even better at their new club. ”

"Pogba? We're not going to sell him, he's a key player in my tactics. We don't just sell players to keep the club running, we also have to keep and bring in high-quality players to improve the squad and achieve better results. ”

And "Italian Football" used Conte's sentence to analyze the current situation in the Italian league: "Conte said that the sale of Giaccherini and Li Zihan was only to facilitate the introduction of other players, but in fact Llorente joined for free and did not spend a single euro transfer fee. Tevez spent 12 million euros, but 3 million euros were floating. And Giaccherini alone sold 11 million euros, and Matri also sold millions of euros. Juventus's current recruitment costs are enough for the transfer fees brought by these two, but where did Lee's 20 million go? The preliminary estimate is to pay off the debt, and Juventus has paid off a lot of arrears one after another. As of last season, Juventus's arrears were still about 60 million euros, so Li Zihan's 20 million is estimated to be used to fill this gap. Juventus is also a relatively financially safe club in Serie A, and this season, according to incomplete statistics, the arrears of the entire Serie A league have reached 1.5 billion euros. So this is also the reason why the Italian league is becoming less and less competitive in Europe, and young players such as Lee and Lamela have become victims of this. ”

Li Zihan couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this article, feeling that his departure could still be related to the future of Italian football.

In any case, Li Zihan's arrival at Arsenal has become an established fact.

Li Zihan packed his luggage and rushed to London for a medical examination before the first round of the new Premier League season. This season's Premier League kick-off is a little earlier than before, with the first round of the league kicking off on 17 August. Until the end of the transfer period, all three rounds of Premier League matches will be played.

However, what is interesting is that some fans ridiculed on the Internet that Li Zihan didn't want to go to the Emirates Stadium and got lost, and Zuihou walked and went to other physical examination rooms.

For the humor of the fans, Li Zihan also showed his humor. He said on Twitter and Weibo: "I spent a lot of money to buy a new mobile phone, I heard that there is a Google map navigation, if I get lost, please go to Google, maybe their maps are not reliable." ”

Of course, the fans' ridicule was just a joke. Li Zihan finally arrived at the Arsenal physical examination room smoothly and successfully passed the physical examination.
