PS3: I would like to thank the book friend "Dawang Yu Yu Yu" for his tip.

Although Fiorentina have hit a wall in successive transfers of Xavi Alonso and Schweinsteiger this summer, this did not make Zhuang Mingge panic. After all, he had somewhat anticipated the current situation, but he didn't expect things to really go for the worst, Alonso and Schweinsteiger, two players he was very optimistic about, refused to be recruited by Fiorentina, resulting in Zhuang Mingge having to continue to look for players around the world who could play as a substitute for Pirlo when the team had already started pre-season training.

Although nominally only looking for a replacement for Pirlo, in reality, due to the fact that Fiorentina still have to face a multi-front situation in the new season, and the Purple Lily's long-standing tradition of playing at the back of the playmaker, the substitute will definitely not start less than 20 games for Fiorentina. For the vast majority of young players, this is a time of play that gives them plenty of opportunities to develop without putting a risk on their development. Unless it is an iron man like Nedved whose physical quality is far beyond ordinary people, it will definitely bury some hidden dangers in the bodies of these young players.

As for Schweinsteiger and Alonso, the reason why they rejected Fiorentina's offer can only be said to be that their ambitions are too great, and the guarantee of playing 20 games in a season is simply not enough to satisfy their appetite. In other words, they want Fiorentina to give them a stable place in the squad and a higher status in the team, so that they can have a chance to play as an international in the World Cup in Germany in two years' time.

By the way, after learning that Zhuang Mingge was interested in Schweinsteiger, Ballack wanted to take the opportunity of training in the national team to persuade Xiao Pig to seriously consider switching to Fiorentina. However, before Barak could put this idea into action, he was stopped in time by Zhuang Mingge, who learned the news.

"Michael, forget it, the twisted melon is not sweet. Since Schweinsteiger has made it clear that he is not interested in joining Fiorentina, there is no need to pursue him. In less than two years, this kid will have to regret today's decision. Zhuang Mingge, who has the super golden finger of the memory of his previous life, is naturally clear about the future development of Little Pig. Before Van Gaal coached Bundesliga Hollywood, Schweinsteiger's situation at Bayern could be said to be worse than one year after another, from the promising star at the beginning of his debut to mediocrity, and even the main position was taken away by Ribery, and he could only wait for opportunities on the bench, and his position in the national team was also crumbling under the impact of younger Ozil and others.

It can be said that if Van Gaal hadn't asked him to play to the back of the organization, I am afraid that there would be no world-class midfielder who led the entire German team.

Regarding the team's delay in finding a playmaker who can rotate with Pirlo, Mourinho did not complain to Zhuang Mingge about this, but began to think about how to let other players share this part of the task after Pirlo's rest. The Portuguese believe that with the Florentine staffing, it will not be a problem to close this hole.

You know, last season's Chelsea and Greece at the European Championship have shown that even without a top star, they can make up for it through collective strength. Therefore, Mourinho, who believes that his tactical skills are not much worse than those of Claudio Ranieri and Hey Hagel, believes that even if the team fails to find a qualified replacement in the end, he can still solve the problem properly. After all, that's the only way to make Mourinho prove his coaching ability to these players in the team in the shortest possible time, isn't it?

Mourinho is well aware that although he has become the manager of the Fiorentina first team under the support of Zhuang Mingge, and has also been initially recognized by the players with his years of work experience in the club, his slightly thin coaching experience is still his fatal wound. Once Fiorentina's record fluctuates or even declines, then Mourinho is bound to be questioned from all sides!

Therefore, if he can effectively address the issue with the resources available to him in the absence of a substitute for Andrea Pirlo, then Mourinho can at least gain more trust from his players and further strengthen his grip on the dressing room.

While Mourinho racked his brains to figure out how to solve this problem, Zhuang Mingge did not stop searching for players. In order to save as much time as possible, he made offers to several clubs at the same time, in order to make up for Fiorentina's shortcomings in midfield in the shortest possible time.

It's just that other club managers aren't fools either. Seeing Zhuang Mingge's search for a playmaker midfielder all over the world, and looking at the squad configuration of Fiorentina's first team, they immediately understood that Fiorentina were now in a hurry to find a reliable replacement for Pirlo. So, when Zhuang Mingge sent someone to ask for the price, most of the club managers put on a posture of asking for a sky-high price, ready to make a large transfer fee here in Fiorentina!

Zhuang Mingge also knows the thoughts of these club managers. However, he can only do his best to avoid Fiorentina being treated as a wronged leader in this transfer - who let Fiorentina expose such an obvious weakness in the midfield configuration this time, and these club managers will really hell if they don't take the opportunity to kill them!

Eventually, after a week of screening and negotiations, Spaniard Mikel Arteta was Fiorentina's final signing of the summer. Fiorentina paid the Scottish giants €5 million in a transfer fee to secure the Rangers' main midfielder, and the deal was struck.

To be able to acquire Arteta at such a relatively low price, thanks to the fact that Rangers at this time are eager to fill the financial deficit caused by the large investment in the transfer market in previous years, and the fact that the level of Scottish football has been declining in recent years, which allowed Zhuang Mingge to take advantage of this transfer. Otherwise, the Scottish giants would certainly not hesitate to knock on it.

Anyway, after a hectic rush, Fiorentina finally got the final piece of the puzzle before the start of the new season. Of course, the effect and quality of Arteta's puzzle will have to be tested through actual combat.
