Chapter 036: The Summer Transfer Window Officially Closes!
Magnum keenly noticed that when everyone in the locker room was united and morale was high, there was a figure that did not seem so gregarious.
It's another new player who joins Phil Kruger, Hanno Bechelens.
Presumably seeing the former perform well, but he didn't get the opportunity to play, there was a gap in his heart.
Young man still has to be patient!
Taking advantage of the club's senior management here, Magnum announced that the team would have a two-day holiday tomorrow and start training the day after tomorrow.
With the next round of the league coming up in 12 days' time, it's time for the players to enjoy their holidays.
His style of leading the team is to reward and punish clearly, no matter what the result is, as long as you usually play hard and practice hard, you will rest when you should rest.
Unlike some coaches, once they lose, they engage in closed training, and the players can't even go home, which is something that normal people can do.
Like the last game, even if you lose, Magnum still gives everyone a holiday.
But that doesn't mean he's indulgent in the management of the team.
A lesson from the past is Armando Cooper, who has been terminated by the club.
The Panamanian did not return from his leave after playing for the national team in the Gold Cup and disappeared for no reason until five days later when he contacted the club.
In the face of such behavior, even if the winger position was a little nervous because of Ryo Miyaichi's injury and Cui Qinglu's departure, Magnum did not hesitate to ask the club to terminate his contract directly.
Gottlich and Mellegher agreed to the decision on behalf of the Board of Trustees after careful communication with him.
If you are absent from work for five days without reason, the boss will not give you the opportunity to continue to enjoy the 996 blessings.
From this sudden incident, as well as the previous fan trouble, the players of St. Pauli also know the temper of their coach, and they will never be cowardly when they should come forward, but if they make mistakes, they will definitely not be soft.
In addition to this matter of principle, there is no ambiguity in small things, just look at how badly Te'o is scolded by him every time, in his eyes, there is no difference between relatives and aliens in the team, only serious or chaotic players.
The prestige of the omnipotence was also quickly established in this big and small thing.
The end of this league also means the end of August, and for world football, it is also the day when the summer transfer window of many major leagues closes.
Although last year was the so-called transfer year in football because of the World Cup, the summer transfer window of 2015 still refreshed people's concept of Jinyuan football again.
Represented by the Premier League, which is the largest investment, the total investment of the top 20 reached a jaw-dropping 1.17 billion euros, in addition to the total amount breaking the record again, nearly half of the teams also broke their own recruitment records.
Southampton's €15.7 million purchase of Dutch defender Virgil van Dijk and Stoke City's €17 million purchase of the Swiss small tank Shaqiri have greatly exceeded people's impression of ordinary mid-to-lower teams.
After lifting the restrictions of the financial fair play policy, Blue Moon Manchester City has invested more than 200 million yuan, becoming the largest club on the planet, with De Bruyne, Sterling, Otamendi and others coming to invest.
On the Bundesliga side, because of the strict financial system and unique club management policies, the total investment only ranks fourth in Europe, and if you count the transfer income, there is still a net income of tens of millions of euros.
It deserves to be the healthiest league in European football.
It's just that even if it is as rational as the Bundesliga, there are still criticisms from fans during the transfer period.
That's the monopoly of the Southern King.
Bayern Munich's net transfer spend this summer is more than 50 million euros, which is not as big as other top European giants, but more than the other six Bundesliga teams with positive net spending combined, and this is even after they have won three consecutive league titles.
On the contrary, the other upper teams in the Bundesliga have become the hunting ground of the Premier League.
Wolfsburg's Kevin De Bruyne is the champion of this summer, Hoffenheim's Roberto Firmino switched to Liverpool for 4,100 euros, and Bayer Leverkusen sold South Korean Son Heung-min to Tottenham for the highest price in team history.
The only squad that has maintained some fighting power is Dortmund.
After being poached by Bayern for two consecutive seasons, Gotze and Lewandowski, their main framework was finally retained this summer window, but the biggest problem was that manager Jurgen Klopp was gone.
It's a pity, I didn't have the opportunity to experience Uncle Scum's mad dog flow in the Bundesliga.
While lamenting the huge team's spending a lot of money, St. Pauli FC also ended its summer recruitment.
To be precise, since the arrival of Phil Krueger and Bechelens, their transfer window has closed early.
In just two months, the first team has gone fifteen people, counting the special Olympics and Schreck who were promoted from the youth team, seven new people, and the lineup remains at a very reasonable 25 people, no, it should be said that it is 24 and a half, and from the perspective of playing time, Magnum can only be counted as half at most.
There are two goalkeepers, the main one is Himmelman and the second is Hwogen.
There are eight defenders, captain Gunther, vice-captain Kara, Zobich, Neareg, Boubala, Stantsev, plus two new full-backs O'Neil and Te'o, both experienced veterans and fledgling newcomers.
There are seven players in midfield, Zatkowski in front and Zirez in the back, with Meier as the main player, and substitutes such as Erosh, Kurt, Buchtmann, and Hanno Bechlens, who has not yet fully integrated into the team.
There are also 7 people in the front, including 5 wingers, Ryo Miyaichi, Ti, Sobota, youngsters Litka and Schreck, two center forwards, Phil Krueger and big substitute Budimir.
Finally, the head coach and goalkeeper, omnipotent!
Yes, his place on the final official registration list turned out to be the goalkeeper!
This also explains why the first-team squad has only two goalkeepers.
If there is an injury in the goalkeeper position, he is the team's three!
Of course, this is just a joke, because even if someone is injured, St. Pauli can temporarily remove the goalkeeper from the youth team and the reserve team, and the reason for this registration is because the German Football Association rules that only goalkeepers can wear the number 1.
So in order to keep his number, Magnum had to register as a goalkeeper.
As for the specific position to play, it is up to him to decide.
From this point of view, St. Pauli's staffing is quite neat, at least there are substitutes who can be on top in each position, which is really not good, and there is a super jack-of-all-trades in the all-purpose team, if there is a hole in the team's lineup, he can fill it at any time.
………
September 1st.
Magnum, who took the opportunity to give himself a day off, couldn't rest completely, and he also had to deal with a lot of long-squeezed affairs through video, all of which were related to side hustles.
By the time he had done all this, and it was already afternoon, he received another call from the chairman, Okai Gottlich.
Jersey sponsorship is finally done!
The club has secured a three-year shirt sponsorship contract with the American brand UA, which will generate an additional €1 million per year.
Gottlich called just to give him an announcement, but Magnum reminded him to add one more clause to his contract, and if the team is promoted next year, then the sponsorship fee will have to be renegotiated.
Half an hour later, the other party readily agreed to this additional clause, and the two parties officially signed the contract.
In addition to the official completion of the team's jersey for the new season, this sponsorship fee is also timely, which makes Magnum more confident in the cooperation with Wolfaert Medical Center tomorrow.
The next day, Magnum, together with the club's president, Gottlich, and the part-time general manager, Meleg, went to Hamburg Airport to meet the visiting Mr. Wolfath and his party.
From afar, he saw Mr. Hans-Wilhelm Wohlfath, with long black hair parted in the middle, and although he was 73 years old this year, he was still full of energy and charm.
He also quickly recognized the omnipotence in the crowd and came up to hug him with a smile.
"Jack, your hair is still so eye-catching."
"Otherwise, how could you see me at a glance!"
Although the age gap between the two was huge, they greeted each other like old friends when they met, and Magnum also introduced Gottlich and Merlegre to each other, and Wolfart's side, in addition to the secretary on the phone, there was also a father and daughter.
The middle-aged man, Brinton Schmidt, is Walfath's student and assistant, and should be the specific person in charge of this cooperation project.
Another teenage girl who looks like she's just coming of age is his daughter, Erica Schmidt, who is currently interning at Wolfaart Medical Center.
Erica is tall and stylish, and she doesn't need to take off her sunglasses to know that she must be a big beauty.
What Magnum didn't know was that under the cover of his sunglasses, a pair of big deep eyes were looking at him curiously.
