Chapter 331: The Prince of Argentina (II)
PS: This is a 40,000 recommended addition, and the next addition is 41000 recommendations~
Although there have been many shackles between Real Madrid and Fiorentina for some reason, this time, Sanz is not averse to selling Redondo, on the contrary, he is happy that someone is willing to buy the Argentine midfielder.
After all, the season before Mendoza's departure, he decided to bring in Baldano, Laudrup and Redondo, and everyone knows that Real Madrid finally ended the embarrassment of being suppressed by Barcelona for four consecutive years and successfully topped La Liga.
As a result, these signings by President Mendoza have naturally become his masterpieces of discernment, and they have also become a thorn in the side of Sanz.
The first thing Sans did after taking office was to let go of Laudrup and bring in a number of players, the intention of which can be imagined. Now that head coach Baldano has also been forced to resign, everyone knows what will happen to Redondo.
Historically, if it weren't for Capello, who had just served as Real Madrid coach, I am afraid that Redondo would have followed in the footsteps of the previous two.
Now that Capello has moved to Fiorentina and Real Madrid is managed by Claudio Ranieri, the tinkerer wants a creative and organisational attacking midfielder like Effenberg and Rui Costa, rather than a midfielder like Redondo who organises attacks at the back.
So, there is a reason to sell Redondo, and the next family is also there, so what are you waiting for? Let's negotiate!
"Four million dollars! Lump sum payment! In the high-level conference room of the Real Madrid headquarters, Zhuang Mingge, who was sitting at one end of the table, took the lead in giving his own offer.
"President Corleone, it is impossible for us at Real Madrid to accept such an offer!" Sans tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said with a pretended dissatisfaction, "Anyway, Fernando is also the main midfielder of Real Madrid and the Argentine national team, and an indispensable member of our team, four million dollars?" Are you planning to rob us of Real Madrid? β
"The main force? Hehe, not necessarily, Chairman Sans? Ignoring Sans's dissatisfaction, Zhuang Mingge reminded him "kindly", "I remember that Fernando only made 23 appearances in the league this season, not to mention that compared with Michel and Hierro, even the injury-plagued Amarvisca has more appearances than him." β
"Uh......" Sans was speechless for a moment, he didn't expect the other party to investigate so clearly.
"As for the Argentine national team? I remember that Fernando has never been called up to the national team since the current Argentine coach Passarella came to power, how can a player who can't even get into the national team say that he is the main midfielder of the national team? β
Sans knew that he was speechless, and saw that if he let Zhuang Mingge talk endlessly, he would lose the initiative in negotiations, so he quickly brought the topic back to Redondo's transfer: "Even so, he has performed quite well in La Liga and during Basile coaching the Argentine national team, led this weak team to qualify for the League Cup when he played for Tenerife, and helped the team win the league championship after a four-year absence, Fernando's performance is definitely more than $4 million." β
"Spain and Italy are two completely different styles of football, and just because you do well in La Liga doesn't mean you can do the same in Serie A." Zhuang Mingge said unswervingly, "Your national league advocates offense, while defense is relatively neglected, relying more on the individual performance of players; The Italian league, on the other hand, requires players to have more tactical literacy and team spirit. The league style is different, so the transfer fee naturally cannot be too high, after all, once Fernando is not adapted, we Fiorentina will suffer a huge loss because of this acquisition. β
Just kidding, how many of the players who have thrived in La Liga have been able to perform well in Italy? Think about it, how much silver did the La Liga team pit the Italians during the turn of the century? The most representative cases are Jose Mari (who moved to AC Milan for $18 million in the summer of 1999), Farinos (who moved to Inter Milan for $18 million in the summer of 2000), and of course, Mendieta (who moved to Lazio for 48 million euros in the summer of 2001), all of which were lost without exception, and the Milan duo with strong family backgrounds can afford this kind of loss. Cragnoti's Lazio was directly crushed by the failed acquisition.
However, Zhuang Mingge's words are obviously not so convincing, after all, the tragic fate of Mendieta and others has not yet happened, and few La Liga players are playing in the Italian league at this time, the most famous are Suarez in the sixties (who played very well for Barcelona and Inter Milan) and the "black swan" Rijkaard (who spent a year on loan at Zaragoza in the 1987-88 season).
As a result, Sans immediately began to refute Zhuang Mingge's remarks: "I can't agree with you, according to Chairman Corleone, do you have to take into account the possibility of Fernando being kidnapped by aliens when you bring him in?" This is complete nonsense! And if Fernando had done well in Fiorentina, I would have become a sinner for Real Madrid to sell him for such a low price! So, the offer of four million dollars is completely unacceptable for us at Real Madrid! β
"So, Chairman Sanz, do you think the price of Weishenme is suitable for Fernando?" Zhuang Mingge also realized his somewhat advanced thoughts at this time and asked.
"Ten million dollars! Lump sum payment! Sans raised his right hand, raised a finger, and replied, "As long as you agree to this price, President Corleone, I promise to send Fernando to Florence on time!" β
Hey, what age is this, the Boseman Act has been in place for almost a year, why do you still treat players like goods? Are you going to be responsible for free shipping if Fiorentina pays a little more transfer fee?
Although he kept complaining about the other party in his heart, Zhuang Mingge still found what he needed from his words: the current Sans is very unkind to see Redondo, who was introduced by former chairman Mendoza, as long as there is a suitable offer, he will agree to sell the Argentine, even if Redondo does not want to leave, Sans also has a trick to force him to leave.
Sneijder is the most typical example, as the core of Real Madrid's midfield in the CalderΓ³n era, he was naturally excluded after Florentino entered the palace twice, and even his cabinet in the Real Madrid dressing room was unconditionally confiscated.
After confirming this in his heart, Zhuang Mingge began to bargain with the other party:
"Ten million dollars is too expensive, so it's good, six million dollars, paid in one lump sum."
"Don't tell me that you Fiorentina don't have any money, last year you could pay a record transfer fee for a Dutch league golden boot, which is not high of 10 million dollars."
"Seven and a half million dollars, no more."
'Heard that Massimo Kripa has moved to Chelsea? The Briton paid $6 million for the 31-year-old, so Fernando should at least be a lot higher than him, right? β
"Eight million dollars! If not, I'll go back to Italy, and Juventus' manager Moggi has asked me if I'm interested in taking over their team's Portuguese midfielder Paulo Sousa. β
"Deal!" Sans, who accepted it when he saw it, immediately agreed to Zhuang Mingge's offer of eight million US dollars.
