With the end of this goal-changing operation involving seven well-known goalkeepers and five Serie A clubs, the European transfer market has finally entered a period of relative calm. In the past half a month, the heroes who have consumed a lot of shells have begun to stop, and they now need enough time for the new signings to run in with the team, do their best to form combat effectiveness, and play their due role for the team's journey in the new season.

Of course, as said before, this calm is only relative. For some teams, such as Sampdoria, who have been trying to strengthen their squad since returning to Serie A, and Real Madrid and Barcelona, who are on the verge of moving after the presidential election, these clubs are obviously not going to stop there.

The first action is Barcelona, which has lost Figo, and Gaspart, who is eager to save his worsening reputation among fans with heavyweight reinforcements, will invest all the transfer fees and original transfer budget obtained from the sale of Figo into the transfer market, ready to catch a few big fish this summer!

So, on the last day of July, Gaspar finally completed his first signing since taking charge, and Barcelona announced that they had brought in their two main players from Arsenal for a package price of $60 million: French defender Petit and Dutch fast Ovimas!

For these two acquisitions of Gaspat, people are still quite optimistic. Petit's arrival could be an effective way to bolster Barcelona's long-criticised defence, providing the necessary rigidity to the midfield and allowing Guardiola to devote more energy to the organisation. Ovimas is regarded by Barcelona fans as the perfect stand-in for Figo, and the Dutchman also has a very good performance in this summer's European Championship, and as the golden generation of Ajax, he can easily integrate into the Barcelona team dominated by the Dutch gang, and the possibility of adaptation is naturally minimized.

Then, the next day, Gaspart announced that the team had brought in Gerard from Valencia for 24 million euros, bringing the lost academy pearl back to the Camp Nou!

With the birth of these blockbuster acquisitions, Gaspart has somewhat recovered some of the image lost after Figo's departure and regained the trust of fans...... Of course, in order to completely secure the position of Barcelona president, Gaspar also needs to let the team show excellent results in the new season, otherwise, fans and the media will still not buy it.

In the midst of praise, only Zhuang Mingge had the opposite attitude. Because only he knows that Gaspart's current seemingly incomparably wise transfers have actually not had the desired effect. Both Petit and Ovimas have been plagued by serious injuries after their move to Barcelona and have not contributed much at all; Returning to his parent team, Gerrard unfortunately caught up with Barcelona's most chaotic time, coupled with the reluctance of several managers to give him a chance, and finally faded out of sight after exhausting his youth and aura on the bench.

Compared with Barcelona, which has spent a lot of money, Real Madrid has also introduced a lot of players during this time. Although a lot of "ammunition" was consumed in Figo's transfer, Florentino, who had the hundreds of millions of dollars from the sale of the sports city, was obviously not panicked. "Galeries Lafayette", who wanted to compete with the legendary president of the Bernabeu, first poached their main midfielder Flavio Conceição from last season's league champion Deportivo La Coruna for $27 million, and then brought in Argentine winger Santiago Solari, who plays for his rival Atletico Madrid, at a low price, to further strengthen the depth of the midfield.

Although the money was not spent and the strength of the team has increased a lot, Lafayette is still very uncomfortable when he does not achieve the expected goal - the overall strength of the team has indeed increased, but the amount of sponsorship contracts and commercial cooperation that has come with these stars is far from Florentino's expectations!

It's no wonder that whoever has made people focus on Serie A, which has staged a big team change, has naturally paid less attention to La Liga.

The reason why Real Madrid was able to make such a big impact after poaching Figo in the previous life was largely due to the fact that Real Madrid won the Champions Cup twice in the past three seasons, and also occupied three of the Champions League semi-finals in the 99-00 season with Barcelona and Valencia, and staged the first civil war in the history of the Champions Cup final, which greatly enhanced the status of La Liga in international football. Combined, these factors laid a solid foundation for the superstar policy and commercial operation after Florentino. Therefore, Figo's role in the commercialization of Real Madrid, although crucial, is not the most important part.

And now, due to Zhuang Mingge's carefully planned change of the Serie A team, and the return of the Italian national team in the just-concluded European Cup, Florentino's move to poach Figo from the sworn rival Barcelona at a sky-high price did not cause a worldwide sensation like in the previous life, but was diluted a lot by the turmoil caused by the two blockbuster transfers of Toldo and Buffon.

After all, no matter how good Figo's performance is, it is Real Madrid, the club with the most brilliant record in the history of Spanish football, that made this transfer, and now the strongest national team in the world is still Italy, the league with the highest level of football is still Serie A, and the most familiar to fans is still Fiorentina, which has won the Champions Cup four times in five years, rather than Real Madrid, which has not participated in the Big Ears Cup for more than 30 years. In the absence of these foundations, Figo has no way to compete with Toldo and Buffon in their prime, and Lafayette's plan to establish Real Madrid's top giants in one fell swoop with the help of the Portuguese's transfer is naturally difficult to achieve.

Therefore, it is clear that Florentino still has a long way to go to further enhance Real Madrid's influence and ability to attract money around the world.

La Liga is stirring up trouble in the transfer market, and Sampdoria, who has the support of Russia's superwealthy, is naturally not far behind. Repka and Koiz who played for Vicenza, Miku Miku at Monaco, and Dainelli, who refused to renew his contract with Fiorentina and chose to leave on a free basis, were all defeated by Berezovsky's money offensive and became part of the Sea Blues!

In addition, Sampdoria also launched an offensive against stars such as Lazio midfielder Veron, Valencia captain Mendieta, and offered their club a transfer fee not inferior to Figo, although due to their status as promoted horses, it is unlikely that these people will agree to join.
