Chapter 0481, Red Expectation

This summer, the saddest club in the transfer market is Barcelona.

Verratti was not poached, but Neymar was poached.

With a cheque of 220 million euros in his hand, he was at a loss.

The next step is to strengthen the forward line and buy Neymar's replacement.

Naturally, the Barcelona hierarchy understands this.

But to their dismay, clubs all over Europe and around the world understand this.

In the next period of time, as long as it is the striker that Barcelona fancies, the opponent will directly double the bid!

Anyway, you Barcelona have money, what's wrong with paying more?

With 220 million euros in cash, Barcelona can't buy a suitable striker in Europe.

In fact, this should be considered from two aspects.

First, now everyone knows that Barcelona has money, and all kinds of premiums make Barcelona very depressed.

Second, Neymar is the third person under Melo, where else can you find such a suitable striker in world football?

You must know that Barcelona is a club that wants to return to the top of Europe, and naturally only the best strikers are needed.

However, the striker who matches Barca's ambitions has either just been poached or is in Real Madrid.

What to do......

Eventually, they set their sights on Borussia Dortmund's young striker Dembele.

As a representative of France's new generation of talented strikers, he and Mbappe are the twin stars of French football.

He is a good replacement.

Just when Barcelona made an offer of 80 million, they were directly rejected by Dortmund.

The Dortmund transfer manager told them directly.

"Mbappe, who is on the same level as Dembele, has just sold for 180 million euros."

The Barcelona management was on the verge of vomiting blood.

What does it mean?

220 million hasn't been covered yet, you guys are like a pot?

In that case, don't blame me for the tricks.

It's still the same as the old three.

Contact the players privately, find the media to build momentum, and let the players strike and make transfers.

As soon as these three moves were shot, the players were basically stable, and the transfer fee was kept down.

Dembele is also really quick to respond, all kinds of demons.

But Dortmund was not used to him.

The new coach Bos is unrelenting - devolve the youth team!

Bose, who has just arrived from Ajax, is a new coach hired by Borussia Dortmund, and naturally has great rights.

This time, Borussia Dortmund also made up their minds.

Even if Dembele is abolished, he will not let him leave the team easily!

Otherwise, whoever wants to transfer in the future will play this one, so how will the club care?

Barcelona hit the nail.

After tossing and turning to no avail, he also admitted it, sat down at the negotiating table honestly, and negotiated the price with Dortmund.

In the end, Barcelona reluctantly shelled out 135 million euros and took Dembele with them.

And Dembele was injured in training shortly after the transfer was completed.

The injury was suspended for a month.

Barcelona's new coach Ernesto Valverde was on the verge of crying.

This start, and let no one play......

Barcelona has been full of twists and turns in the transfer market, which has not affected the big transfers of other giants.

In addition to the 400 million in Grand Paris, the continental giants are seizing the time to make up for it.

Real Madrid, who won the Champions League last season, did not go on a buying spree. Instead, he targeted Atletico Madrid's left-back Theo Hernandez for only €30 million. There was also the purchase of Ceballos from Real Betis for only 17 million euros. Both transfers were targeted. At the same time, they also sold redundant players Morata, Danilo, and these two recouped 100 million euros. Including the loan of J Ronaldo and the termination of Pepe's contract, they are all helping the team to travel lightly.

Atletico Madrid because of the transfer ban, so this summer can only poach potential youth team players, and the new season needs to continue to cultivate.

Serie A AC Milan ushered in Huaguo Capital, the new owner was in place, the introduction of reinforcements was like money, and even directly changed a team. Bonucci, Andre Silva, Conte, Calhaoglu, Biglia, Kessie...... With many players joining, AC Milan has a lot of ambitions for the new season.

Juventus also spent more than 100 million, Bernardeschi, Cuadrado, Benatia, Szczesny and other players joined, and there were reinforcements in various positions.

The Bundesliga transfer market is still dominated by Bayern. The joining of players such as Tolisso, Koeman, and Jule also cost more than 100 million. They also signed Real Madrid's No.10 J Ronaldo on loan for €10 million on a two-year loan, a bargain.

After Dortmund sold Dembele at a large price, they did not bring in too much reinforcements, and still relied on poaching potential young players to improve the strength of the team.

Among the five major leagues, the Premier League is still the most money-burning league.

Manchester City continued to spend money, this time directly spending nearly 200 million euros to completely renew a backline. Walker, Mendy, Danilo, Ederson and other powerful stars have all joined, and Guardiola has been strengthened at the back. The transfers of Bernardo Silva and Douglas Costa have given Manchester City's midfield more options.

Manchester City have money, and Chelsea's Abou is not far behind. made an early move, snatched Manchester United's target Morata, bought Bakayoko, Rudiger and other powerful stars, and strengthened multiple positions. Conte's goal this season remains to reach the top.

Liverpool also invested a lot in transfers, they bought Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Robinson, and the three transfers cost nearly 100 million. Klopp's ambitions for the new season are no small. They have also been chasing Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk, but they have not been able to negotiate it due to transfer fees. However, it is believed that this transfer is also very likely to become a reality in the future.

Arsenal are still frugal, spending only 53 million euros to sign striker Alexandre Lacazette and then signing former Schalke 04 free agent Kolasinac.

Countless giants are stirring up the storm in the transfer market, and Mourinho naturally cannot be idle.

After Wayne Rooney finally confirmed that he would stay with the club for another year, Mourinho was a little more steady.

However, Rooney can only be rotated in the new season, after all, he is getting older and needs to buy a new striker.

Especially when the veteran Ibrahimovic's one-year contract expired, Mourinho hurried to renew it, but it was only for one year, and Ibrahimovic was older and could not play to the end like last season.

So, buying a striker, that's Manchester United's top priority right now.

And Mourinho's favorite Morata was cut off by Conte, which made the Portuguese very unhappy!

Are you robbing my man?

Then I'll rob your people!

A transfer that Chelsea is negotiating, Manchester United directly intervened to stir up the yellow!

85 million euros, the little monster Lukaku officially transferred to Manchester United!

A player that Conte liked very much, but in the end he didn't get it!

The addition of Lukaku has satisfied Mourinho, who likes top center forwards.

Next, there is a need for midfielders and central defenders.

45 million euros, Nemanja Matic joins!

35 million euros, Lindelof to the Red Devils!

These two transfers have made Manchester United's squad stronger and stronger!

Not only that, but young youth team youngster Scott McTominay was promoted to the first team by Mourinho as a supplement to the multi-front battle in the new season.

The departure of players such as Januzaj, Barella, Jackson and Johnstone has also reduced Redundancy.

The new season of Manchester United makes fans look forward to it!
