Chapter 73 30 million to buy Sun Xingmin, 65 million to offer Royce
Sane, who is only 19 years old this year, is a talented player cultivated by Schalke 04's own academy.
He only made his debut for Schalke 04 last season, and in last season's Champions League, Sane also broke through the door of Real Madrid, almost becoming famous with a goal, attracting the attention of countless teams.
For such a young genius, Schalke 04 is naturally regarded as a baby, how can he be abducted by others so easily?
So after receiving Manchester City's offer, Schalke 04 said that Sane was not for sale for the team, so he rejected Manchester City's offer.
"Farts are not for sale, if they are really not for sale, just refuse directly, why say such things?"
Guardiola has been mixed up in football for decades, how can he not understand what the other party means?
It's not that the other party doesn't want to sell people at all, but simply thinks that there is less money!
Although I feel a little unhappy, the matter of buying people is a bargaining process in itself.
If the other party immediately accepts the offer from his side, then he will still mumble, wondering if there is something wrong with this player, or if he has lost his eyes or something?
Guardiola made a second offer to Schalke 04 after adding 5 million euros to his original offer.
This time, Schalke's attitude has changed a lot, and he no longer talks nonsense about Sane's non-sale.
However, the image of Manchester City's local tycoons has been ingrained in the past few years, and there is an unwritten rule of major European clubs, that is, when facing Manchester City's offer, they must raise the psychological price a little.
After all, such a local tyrant who is not bad for money must have a good fortune when he encounters it.
As a result, they demanded 40 million euros from Manchester City and demanded a 20% cut of Sane's next transfer fee.
This is completely a lion's mouth, Sane certainly has some talent, but he is only 19 years old now, and it is completely unknown whether these talents can be realized.
If he hadn't played at Manchester City, wouldn't Manchester City have lost blood?
As a result, Manchester City stopped making offers to Schalke and started looking for players again.
"What's wrong? Got in the way of transfers? ”
Seeing Guardiola's depressed face, Lin Quan guessed that he might be deflated in the transfer market.
"Why do those guys outside treat us as wronged, thinking that we are stupid people and fools with a lot of money?"
As soon as Guardiola thought of Schalke 04's conditions, he felt the urge to scold his mother.
Although the price of 40 million euros is beyond his budget, it is not impossible to sell it with Manchester City's financial resources.
But the other party's additional transfer commission conditions made him feel humiliated.
Isn't that fooling yourself?
How could anyone agree to such a condition?
If such conditions are added, it is equivalent to them spending 50 million euros to buy a 19-year-old winger.
Who does the other party think this guy is? Worth 50 million?
"Aren't we Manchester City stupid people and fools with a lot of money?"
Lin Quan couldn't help laughing, Guardiola is treating Manchester City as a giant with a background like Barcelona!
Manchester City did start as a nouveau riche, and in the early years, they couldn't buy people, so they relied on spending more money than other teams to steal people from other clubs.
Therefore, when encountering Manchester City to buy people, they will open a higher price, and the initiator of this matter is actually Manchester City itself.
It's just that in recent years, with the gradual increase of Manchester City's fame and honor, this kind of behavior has gradually decreased, and the clubs where Guardiola stayed before were all top-level giants with deep background, and they have not suffered losses in this regard.
If Bayern wants to buy people, let alone 40 million, as long as they open their mouths, 25 million or even 20 million may pry Sane away!
Don't underestimate the strength of the Bundesliga excavator!
Bayern's attraction to German players is simply the extent to which the protagonist in the cool article waved his arms and the younger brother bowed his head.
It's just a pity that Manchester City is not Bayern, and even more regrettable, they are a Premier League team.
The whole world knows that the commercial operation of the Premier League is good, and the teams here are very rich, even some relegation teams can get hundreds of millions of pounds of broadcast revenue from the league every year.
With such a huge income, Premier League clubs have become a model of stupid money in the transfer market, and they want to buy people for a much higher price than teams in other leagues.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said that teams in other leagues will automatically increase their prices by 50% when they meet teams from England.
Although this is suspected of excusing himself for being reluctant to spend money on stars, it also reflects the weak position of Premier League teams in the transfer market.
Take Pogba as an example, if it is Real Madrid or Barcelona who buys him, the transfer fee will definitely not reach the figure of 105 million, and it will be 80 million euros.
But when you meet Manchester United, who is stupid and has a lot of money, and is still sick and rushes to the doctor, then there is no way, it is completely controlled by Juventus, and you can pay as much as you want!
It's not necessarily a bad thing that he didn't buy Sane, Lin Quan didn't have a very good impression of this guy.
His talent is naturally not said, but his style of play is not very suitable for Manchester City, to be precise, it is not suitable for Manchester City under Pep Guardiola.
Pep Guardiola pursues efficiency and likes the kind of players who are obedient on the field, take their tactics seriously, do not cause trouble off the field, do not cause trouble, and train diligently.
And Sane clearly does not belong to this type!
Leroy Sane's lack of commitment to work, sticking to the ball and eating the ball, and sometimes neglecting efficiency in pursuit of self-expression, led to the team's offensive coming to an end for him.
Pep Guardiola's disappointment in him is evident in the fact that he would even prefer to reuse Sterling rather than use him.
Compared with the cynical Sane, Lin Quan remembered another talented and very hardworking player - Leverkusen's Son Xingmin!
"What do you think of this winger at Bayer Leverkusen?"
Lin Quan found Son Heung-min's game highlights and recommended him to Pep Guardiola.
Guardiola attaches great importance to the players recommended by Lin Quan, and after carefully reading the highlights given by Lin Quan, he held his chin and said:
"This guy is very fast, and he has a strong scoring ability when he counterattacks quickly, but his positional combat ability is a little weaker, and his foot skills are not particularly good."
Guardiola is telling the truth, Son Heung-min is indeed not a first-tier player.
But this kind of player with distinctive characteristics, if used well under a certain tactic, will work very well.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have won the Premier League Golden Boot.
"You're not buying a mainstay, if you buy it as a substitute, I think it's okay, and having a fast horse on the wing and encountering some teams that like to play pressing and attacking might work wonders."
Lin Quan glanced at Guardiola, his request was a bit outrageous.
Probably because after getting used to seeing Messi and his own play, his vision has become higher!
But not everyone is Lin Quan, everyone is Messi, and there are only two such players in football.
"Okay, just do as you say!"
was originally bought as a substitute, and Guardiola was relieved.
As a result, Manchester City quickly launched an offer to Bayer Leverkusen for 30 million.
Compared with Sane, Sun Xingmin is 23 years old this year and has reached the age of fighting.
He fits in as soon as he arrives and is immediately ready to play for the team.
It's just that because Asian players aren't doing very well in the top five leagues, the deal is risky.
On the European side, even with the emergence of stars such as Shinji Kagawa, Jisung Park, Hidetoshi Nakata and Keisuke Honda, the quality of Asian players has not been fully recognized by the entire European football scene.
This can be seen in the transfer fee, which is currently the highest transfer fee for an Asian player at £18.5 million, held by Hidetoshi Nakata.
This record was set 15 years ago, and no one has been able to break it so far.
If they were really that good, it would be impossible for no one to break this record for so many years at a time when the transfer fee in football has already ballooned.
Therefore, after receiving this offer, Bayer Leverkusen agreed immediately with almost no hesitation.
I'm afraid that one second more night will make Manchester City regret it.
They don't know that in the Premier League, in addition to Manchester City, there is another club that is also eyeing Son Heung-min.
That's what Manchester City ate and slept and beat Doudou - Tottenham!
"What? Son Heung-min was bought by Manchester City? ”
Tottenham chairman Levy had just prepared a budget and was about to wave a cheque to buy the young Asian winger to help Kane fight for the championship trophy for Tottenham, but he learned that the player he fancied had already been pried into the corner by others, and it was none other than their bitter boss Manchester City in the league.
"Damn Manchester City, why do you want to rob our people, there are so many excellent wingers in the Bundesliga!"
It's infuriating, but there's just no way.
People have been bought, what else can be said?
It's just that Tottenham, who has not bought a suitable winger, may have to rely on Kane alone in the new season.
In the face of Manchester United and Liverpool, which are constantly recruiting, Manchester City has forged a Champions League winning squad for two consecutive years.
Levy couldn't help but be a little stunned, can his own lineup really challenge these teams?
After easily getting rid of Son Xingmin, Guardiola was in a good mood, and the previous haze was completely swept away.
So, looking at the remaining budget in his hand, he felt that he should buy a little more talent to reserve.
This time, Guardiola has his eye on Royce.
After the departures of Gotze and Lewandowski, Reus became the dean of Dortmund.
Had it not been for his injuries last season and his inability to play back-to-back, Dortmund would not have come close to falling into the relegation zone.
Pep Guardiola likes Reus very much, and when he was coaching at Bayern, he admired him very much, and he even moved the idea of buying him at one point.
It's a pity that Reus has a very deep affection for Dortmund and is unwilling to leave at all.
This makes Guardiola a little helpless.
But now, with Jurgen Klopp gone, Dortmund will undoubtedly be in turmoil.
They don't know how long it will take to get back to the top.
And with Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga, Dortmund may never be able to return to the peak form of a few years ago.
Therefore, there is no future for staying in Dortmund.
Coupled with the fact that this guy is still a glass man, his injury situation will only get worse and worse as he continues to squeeze his potential.
Pep Guardiola even feels that if this continues, Royce will be ruined by injury sooner or later.
It's a pity that this talent and that admirable character.
These are the reasons why Pep Guardiola wants to bring him in, he doesn't want to watch a genius who has not reached his limits and be ruined for various other reasons.
So, after buying Son Heung-min, Guardiola thought seriously and made an offer to Dortmund for 65 million euros, hoping to take Reus.
Manchester City are not short of players in the central midfield position, and if Reus joins the team, Guardiola will give him some time to recuperate, try to recover from the injuries accumulated due to exhaustion, and let him recover completely.
After receiving an offer from Manchester City, Dortmund FC was a little hesitant.
They should have rejected City's offer outright, as they needed a spiritual totem to back them up and keep them moving forward with the departures of Gotze, Robert Lewandowski and Jurgen Klopp.
And when the team was in crisis, Reuss, who resolutely chose to renew his contract with the team, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
He is not only an academy player of the team, but also loyal to the club, and his hard work and hard work on the field are also obvious to all Hornets fans.
Such a player is really suitable to be the leader of Dortmund.
However, they forcibly left Royce, is it really good for him?
With Jurgen Klopp gone, Dortmund felt very uncertain about the future.
Last season, they finished seventh in the league and almost reverted to the position they were before Jurgen Klopp.
They are worried that they will stay in the middle and bottom of the league and never get back to the top.
And a top player like Reus shouldn't bury his talent in such a mid-to-lower team, he should go to a higher stage to show his talent.
Such a team could be Barcelona, Real Madrid, or Manchester City.
As for Borussia Dortmund, Reus would be happy to push for a move if they are willing to leave and they can make a good offer to compensate for the team's rebuild.
However, the players themselves must be consulted on this matter.
So, Dortmund temporarily pressed Manchester City's offer and contacted Reus himself to ask about his attitude.
If Reus himself was unwilling to leave, Dortmund would never force him.
"What? Manchester City want to buy me? ”
When Reus was notified by the club, he looked a little dazed.
He has already renewed his contract with the club, why would any team still make an offer to him?
Don't these people know that renewing their contracts means that they don't plan to leave?
Wait a minute, Manchester City?
Could it be that guy who wants to fight with him in the past?
For a moment, Royce couldn't help but think about it.
