Chapter 7 Who Are These People?
Salah, the future pharaoh of Egypt, Liverpool Blade.
He is the African Footballer of the Year, winner of the Premier League Golden Boot several times, and helped Liverpool win the Premier League and Champions League after a long absence.
In the era when Pan Yi lived, Salah was one of the best strikers in the world, and his value must be calculated in 100 million at the peak.
And now, Salah is just a nobody playing in Egypt's domestic league, and his value is pitiful.
If you sign him to Milan now, wouldn't it be a profit?
Although the early stage of Salah's career in European football in his previous life was not particularly smooth, with Pan Yi, a traverser, and under the correct guidance, the Egyptian pharaoh will definitely be able to improve faster and stand alone.
Pan Yi suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to flip through the list.
Soon, another familiar name jumped into view.
"Sadio Mane, 19 years old, Senegal, striker, Dakar Generation Football Academy, estimated to be worth 1-50,000 euros."
is also a super striker who was popular in the Liverpool team in the previous life.
And on Liverpool's road to revival, their forward line plays a crucial role.
Center forward Roberto Firmino, left winger Sadio Mane, and right winger Salah are also known as the Red Arrows Trio by fans.
Mane's role in this is not even lower than that of Salah.
In addition to the same club team honours, Mane has also won the Premier League Golden Boot and has also won the African Footballer of the Year and the Africa Cup of Nations.
The most important thing is that Pan Yi is most familiar with Klopp's tactical philosophy.
And these two guys, who were Klopp's most proud disciples when he was at Liverpool, proved that they could execute such tactics perfectly.
If these two people are brought to Milan together, wouldn't Pan Yi have the opportunity to reproduce the terrifying new Red Arrow Three Heroes in his previous life here?
And it will also be an enhanced version of the Red Arrow Trio.
Because in terms of a central striker, Ibrahimovic is even stronger and more well-rounded than Firmino.
Moreover, what made Pan Yi almost laugh out loud was that Mane is not a professional player now.
This means that AC Milan can bring him to Europe for a pitiful youth fee.
Pan Yi has blossomed in his heart.
It stands to reason that with these two strikers, he can answer Allegri's question.
But Pan Yi continued to look for it in the list.
As he said in the interview that day, he also needs a player who can adapt to the new style of play at the back.
Van Bommel is 34 years old, despite his experience.
Whether it is speed, explosiveness, endurance and flexibility, they are all a little worse than Pan Yi's ideal state.
"What about Casemiro? Did you look at Casemiro? ……”
Pan Yi muttered while flipping.
Brazilian star Casemiro, who played for Real Madrid's ceremonial midfielders in his previous life, is naturally his favorite candidate.
He has strong physical fitness and outstanding tackling ability, and he can definitely play the back position in Pan Yi's 433 formation.
But Pan Yi flipped through the "South America" column for a long time, and he didn't see the name.
"Oh, I almost forgot, even with Casemiro, we wouldn't have been able to sign him."
Pan Yi suddenly slapped his head.
In Serie A there is a rule that only two non-EU players can be transferred in a season.
If Pan Yi can convince the management to sign the African double star, then these two places will be used up directly, and it will be impossible to sign any more Brazilian players.
Then go to "Europe" and have a look.
Sure enough, Pan Yi saw two more names that made his eyes shine one after another:
"N'Golo Kante, 20 years old, France, defensive midfielder, plays for Boromanne in Ligue 2 and is expected to be worth 200,000 euros."
"Virgil van Dijk, 20 years old, Netherlands, centre-back, plays for FC Groningen in the Eredivisie and is expected to be worth €1 million."
Pan Yi smiled secretly:
"I'm grass, buy one get one free! It's all top-notch! ”
The first is N'Golo Kante, who is definitely one of the best candidates for a midfield that meets Pan Yi's requirements.
He is an active runner on the field, covers a wide area, has a defensive sweep against the sky, and has a consistent ability to play the ball.
Compared to Casemiro, Kante is even better in terms of attacking strength.
In previous lives, N'Golo Kante was the most key player in the squad at Leicester City, Chelsea and the French national team.
It's fair to say that N'Golo Kante is the guardian angel of every team – he makes sure he can be there for every team-mate to be protected.
Of course, there are two other sentences that can explain N'Golo Kante's role:
"There is no hurdle that cannot be passed, only Kante that cannot be passed."
"70% of the planet is covered by water, and the remaining 30% is covered by canter."
Such a player, don't want 9998 now, don't want 998, just 200,000 can be taken away!
And the last Van Dijk ......
It is currently the most expensive player Pan Yi watched, but it is only 1 million.
You know, this is the future of the world!
Van Dijk is fast, physical, has amazing bounces, has excellent headers and even has a good long ball in addition to being solid defensively.
When he moved to Liverpool in his previous life, he was worth a staggering £75 million, setting a new record for the transfer fee of a defender in world football.
And he also made everyone feel that the money was well spent.
He has won both the PFA and Premier League Official Player of the Year and finished second in the Ballon d'Or, a rarity among defenders.
And don't forget, Van Dijk is also Liverpool!
He can also adapt to Klopp's tactical system very quickly.
Considering that Milan's main central defender Nesta is also very old, it is time to help him find a successor.
When the time comes, Van Dijk and Tiago Silva's center-back combination, the current world one guard plus the future world one defender, isn't it beautiful?
Pan Yi thought as he sketched on the list.
When Serginho finished speaking, Allegri turned his attention to Pan Yi again, but Pan Yi had already handed over the list in a hurry:
"I think these four people are very good, and the suggestion can be used as the focus of the introduction of the summer window."
Allegri took it and looked at it, but frowned.
Because of the names of these four people, he had never heard of any of them, and he didn't know them at all.
So he forwarded the list to Sergiño:
"What's the situation with these people? Could you please introduce it to you? ”
Serginho glanced at it and was stunned:
"They? Focus? ”
"These people do have some technical characteristics in their own right, otherwise we wouldn't have put them on the inspection list."
"But none of them have proven themselves at the top level, so they need to keep watching, right?"
"Shouldn't the key people be the ones I just read? Those are the ones who can really strengthen the roster......"
