225 When the Third Pole Rises

International Children's Day.

VfL Wolfsburg fans had a fantastic day.

The 2014-2015 season was the result of the Bundesliga, Europa League and German Cup trebles, with a parade around the city, with the active participation of local fans, creating a grand open-air party.

Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne appeared in the same casual clothes again, and even both of them wore fashionable sunglasses, like a stylish man on the catwalk.

Kevin De Bruyne has scored 20+ goals and assisted nearly 40 in all competitions throughout the season.

Ye Yifeng scored 57 goals and provided 19 assists in all competitions this season.

The duo's data have made them the second most god-level duo in European football this season.

Last year, Real Madrid realized his dream of 10 Champions League titles

Combination C, the MSN combination of Barcelona that performed almost perfectly this year.

From the coach to the fans, Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne are all enthusiastic, but no one has said anything to save them.

Behind the carnival parties are the big names in European football who are sending offers to try to take them away.

After the team's celebration, they cherished each other and went their separate ways.

Ye Yifeng also opened his wardrobe to Perisic very generously, and the Croatian flying wing unceremoniously took away a full six outfits in a large bag, which could accompany him through spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Then Ye Yifeng and Tang Mo began to pack their luggage.

I don't know where to go next, but Wolfsburg definitely won't be able to stay.

De Bruyne officially announced his arrival at Manchester City for 75 million euros, and Perisic's 20 million euros was also taken away by Inter Milan.

The situation on his side is a bit complicated.

Bayern Munich's first bid has already been given for 70 million euros!

Pep Guardiola named the team to "retaliate" against Wolfsburg: digging the heart of Wolfsburg!

It's time to prove what the Bundesliga excavators are capable of!

If Bayern Munich had offered this price six months ago, Wolfsburg would have agreed.

Now.

Just waited for a day.

Manchester United are offering 75 million euros!

It's coming, he's coming, and the price-raising maniac is here with an offer!

Another day.

Paris Saint-Germain bid 80 million to bring Ye Yifeng back to Ligue 1 to be king!

Wolfsburg was not in a hurry at this time, and the shelves were full.

In a year and a half, they have netted more than 40 million euros from De Bruyne, even after deducting the cost of salary expenses!

It's more than enough for them to make a big splash in the transfer market.

Draxler in Schalke 04, Dante in Bayern Munich, Kreuzer in Borussia Mönchengladbach...... Wolfsburg's replacement lineup is not necessarily a local strong upgrade, but it is definitely not to fool fans.

has an explanation to the fans, and the strength of the lineup seems to be able to stabilize the downward trend, so the feeling to the outside world is that they don't necessarily have to sell Ye Yifeng!

As if to tell the world:

How can the Volkswagen Wolf King be taken away for 80 million euros?

The transfer window hasn't opened, so there's no hurry, wait.

Let's see if there is anything more capable of fighting to disrupt the situation.

It's really not good, and in the end, it's too late to make another 80 million euros.

Manchester City is very rich, first take De Bruyne, and then continue to pay attention to Ye Yifeng's transfer, it took them more than half a year to operate De Bruyne's transfer, and they actually followed Ye Yifeng's transfer in the dark.

When Real Madrid also made an offer of 80 million euros, it seems that Ye Yifeng's transfer value is considered to be the upper limit that these teams can accept.

Manchester City came hand surprise attack!

Big you!

90 million euros!

What is the situation in the transfer market, even if Ye Yifeng knows, it has nothing to do with him.

What if the transfer fee soars to 200 million euros?

It's not that he puts money in his pocket.

He and Tang Mo silently put away all the photos in the room.

DURING THE YEAR, THEY COSPLAYED A LOT OF SUPERHEROES, AND ALSO REPRODUCED MANY CHARACTERS FROM CLASSIC FILM AND TELEVISION WORKS.

Each photo evokes a memory fragment that makes the two smile.

Sit on a bed in the stargazing room and take a good look at the German starry sky.

Then open the love room they created to experience it.

After packing all their luggage, the two returned to China in a low-key manner.

Ye Yifeng started business activities again, and with last year's experience, this year's business activities process is faster and easier at the same time.

......

Manchester.

Louis van Gaal took over from David Moyes for a year at the Red Devils, and the Reds finished fourth in the league and returned to the Champions League, which is a decent result.

CEO Woodward still respects Louis van Gaal and tries to meet the other side's recruitment needs as much as possible, but this is not the case, and Manchester United's appeal in the transfer market has dropped sharply since Ferguson's retirement.

Manchester United fans hate.

In the last few years of Ferguson's tenure, Manchester United was like a week, Ferguson has just been gone for a year, and he is indeed not generous to Moyes, but in the era of Van Gaal, it is obvious that he has opened a position and released grain!

Last season, the transfer market spent 100 million euros to buy people, and the net investment exceeded 130 million euros after filling the expenses with the income from selling people!

Manchester United seem to have started "revenge spending" after their results have slipped.

When Woodward tried to convince Van Gaal to accept Wasserman's "minutes guarantee" clause, Van Gaal raised strong objections.

He even his own disciple, General Fan, could be put on the bench because he was not in good shape.

Even if a Chinese striker scores goals in Ligue 1 and Bundesliga, he can't be above the team!

Woodward, of course, has his business considerations.

With the commercial value that Ye Yifeng has now, even if the performance and honor are not as good as Messi and Ronaldo, the commercial value has approached these two superstars.

The higher the brand value and the stronger the ability to realize the commercial value, the lower the cost of signing Ye Yifeng!

Because the moment Ye Yifeng wears these club jerseys, the jersey sales and sponsorship contracts will continue to turn into income and return to the club's wallet.

And the more sensational the transfer, they don't need to pay all the money themselves, their shirt sponsors, the biggest sponsoring partners, will actively shell out real money to promote the completion of the transfer.

But if you can't get around Van Gaal, Woodward really signed people back, and in the end it turned into a situation of infighting, which was not a win-win situation, but Manchester United became a loser.

He even had the idea of recommending to the board that Van Gaal be fired.

The reason is simple: this cook can't do it!

Di Maria, who spent close to 70 million euros to sign him last season, do you see what he has become worthless?

Spent more than 130 million euros to be fourth in the league?

Arsenal are actually third in the league!

Aren't you afraid?

Alas......

Manchester United's neighbors Manchester City are relatively simple-minded, as long as Ye Yifeng is willing to come, they will definitely try to make space for him in the team, especially since they are actually staring at Guardiola as a manager.

Since Guardiola also wants Ye Yifeng in Bayern Munich, he signed it in advance, and when Guardiola's contract with Bayern Munich ends, it can also be used as a bargaining chip to attract the other party to coach.

Manchester City are also leading the competition at the moment, and they are not in a hurry.

What does manager Manuel Pellegrini think?

Unimportant!

Manchester City really signed Ye Yifeng, and they will definitely give him the main position, if it is not used well, it is a problem of Pellegrini's ability.

They directly moved the Wolfsburg twin stars from the Volkswagen Arena to the Etihad Stadium, which is what many strong teams and giants dream of?

Paris.

Paris Saint-Germain's pursuit of Ye Yifeng is a choice to settle for the next best.

They want a superstar or a superstar, but the appeal of Ligue 1 is too low for money to buy.

Like Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne at the age of 23 or 24, they belong to the critical stage of transforming from supernova to top star, and this step has passed, that is, top stars, who can get eye-catching glory and have continuous eye-catching individual performances, they are superstars!

The failure to cut off the striker from Wolfsburg last summer was considered a major mistake by the Paris Saint-Germain hierarchy.

First of all, they don't care much about Ye Yifeng's commercial value, and secondly, they are also cautious about Ye Yifeng, who has only been popular for one year.

At the same time, they focused on the back line last summer, bringing in Brazilian defender David Luiz.

Now that they look back, they need to bring in strikers again.

In fact, they also know that it is difficult to invite Ye Yifeng to return to Ligue 1 at this time, so the second preparation is to target Di Maria, who is struggling at Manchester United.

......

Madrid, Spain.

In front of the beautiful suburban manor, Cerezo, the president of Atletico Madrid, got out of the car, his hair was gray and gray in a suit and tie, he looked kind with glasses, but the two people behind him had completely different temperaments.

Dark blue suit, white shirt, dark tie, short hair and black super, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone vividly interprets what it is: a thug in a suit!

Technical director Camino and Simeone walked side by side, and the three of them walked into the manor, walked to the round table under the shade and sat down, and the housekeeper brought them tea.

The trio had just returned from the club, the team was on vacation, but many of the club's business activities had just begun.

The scene of Atletico Madrid's big three drinking tea under the tree also vividly shows the outside world the club's "round table" operation mode.

Atletico Madrid is not the most famous team in Spain, nor is it the richest, but their manager is the most powerful of all teams in Spain!

The Premier League has progressively abolished the manager's "manager" power.

But in La Liga's Atletico Madrid, Simeone has a lot of power in recruitment.

Since a year ago, clubs such as Chelsea and Inter Milan have used "high annual salary + transfer decision" to recruit Simeone.

But Simone was unmoved.

Aside from the management, he is the emperor of the soil in the team, why go to the new environment?

He is already becoming the "Ferguson" of Atletico Madrid, so why go to another club and start over?

However, the fact is that his recruitment has not been very effective, and in the four transfer windows he has gone through since taking office at the end of 2011, he has brought in close to 20 players, and only one player is still playing for the team today.

And last summer's panic recruitment, with a net investment of 50 million euros, only no more than three people such as Griezmann and Oblak proved that they can play for Atletico Madrid for a long time.

Has Atletico Madrid lost money on signings?

It's hard to define, because players are bought to improve their record, and Atletico Madrid's record is very consistent, and in 2014 it also broke the monopoly of Real Madrid and Barcelona on the league title for many years.

It's just that last season it was suppressed to death.

Real Madrid and Barcelona played La Liga into the Spanish Super League, and Atletico Madrid won the third place, which is also the "first place in La Liga" in a sense, but there is no championship trophy.

There are many players introduced, players are replaced frequently, but the record is stable, and the management certainly trusts Simeone.

Their eyes are not on the rise and fall of the player's value, but on the annual financial report.

Before Simeone took over, Atletico Madrid had a debt of 500 million euros.

This year, the debt figure has fallen below 100 million euros!

After drinking a cup of tea, Cerezo looked at Simone, who seemed to be careless.

Simeone noticed the chairman's gaze, he took off his sunglasses and held them in his hand, and continued to listen with Erlang's legs crossed.

"Diego, the summer transfer income is expected to exceed 80 million euros, and on top of that figure, the board will not invest any more, because we invested like crazy last season, and I hope you can understand."

Simone nodded without changing his face.

There are no emotions whatsoever.

In his first full season at the helm of the club, he spent only four million euros that summer due to the club's debts.

Compared to the hard days at that time, I don't know how good the life is now.

Cerezo suddenly changed his voice and said: "But there is one exception, you should also have paid attention to the Chinese striker from Wolfsburg, the kid who has been making headlines in the transfer market lately.

If you think the team needs him and you are willing to trust him unconditionally, and we can sign a guaranteed playing time clause in the contract, then the board will give you the financial support to take him! ”

Simeone's expression changed slightly, Atletico Madrid now has a Chinese company as a major shareholder, the new stadium under construction will also be named by a Chinese company, and there are more and more Chinese companies in the club's sponsorship, he is well aware of the reasons why the board is willing to support the transfer.

Grab the Chinese market!

He is no stranger to Ye Yifeng, it is precisely the level of Atletico Madrid as the leader of La Liga and even the third pole in Europe, and he will pay more attention to the outstanding players in the second-tier clubs of other leagues.

Because they can't compete with the giants.

It's just that people like Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne have entered the eyes of giants after playing at a phenomenal level.

Normally, it should be an operation like Inter Milan's introduction of Perisic.

Simeone tentatively asked, "What is the board's support cap?" ”

"Add another 100 million euros to the transfer budget from the sale of the revenue! Only valid for this transfer. ”

Technical director Camino Caminero added: "Diego, if you don't think the team needs him, or if it's going to make it difficult for you to play amately, then we can be a board of directors and the idea is not to disrupt the normal functioning of the team.

But if you think he can help us become stronger, it's a weapon for Atletico Madrid to meet the challenge both in the league and in Europe.

Then the Board's proposal would be an additional opportunity for reinforcement. ”

Simeone understood what Caminero meant.

Don't look at Ye Yifeng's game, just look at the data, even if his value is discounted and the commercial value is removed, then this will be a strong reinforcement of about 50 million euros!

The decision is in his hands.

He wants it, and the board pays for it.

If he doesn't want it, it won't happen, and there will be no additional reinforcement budget.

Simeone nodded slowly, then picked up the teacup and drank it with the two of them laughing.

Put on your sunglasses again and say goodbye and leave.

Summer, which may have been a surprise, seems to be starting to get interesting!

Three days later, Atletico Madrid joined Ye Yifeng's bidding.

Bid 100 million euros!

If Wolfsburg releases people, Ye Yifeng will refresh the most expensive transfer value in world football!

Mr. 100 million!
