Chapter 215 Dialogue Between the Two Chairmen
"Real Madrid? David Beckham on loan?"
Bee Knicks was taken aback by Wan Sheng's words. He sat there in a daze, and took a long time to react. He asked with certainty, "Do you want to loan David Beckham from Real Madrid this winter?"
"Additional lineup?" Bee Knicks asked supplementally.
Wan Sheng nodded, "Yes."
He understands the surprise of Bee Knicks, and if someone suddenly said that to him, he would be very surprised, because it's not another player, it's David Beckham, the former captain of the England national team, who has been the captain of the national team for nearly ten years , the most influential star in English football, is the most popular 'heartbeat Beckham' in the world... His title and fame are too many, too big, even though he is 31 years old, his state is sure It's not as good as it was a few years ago, but let's not mention football, just his commercial value is incomparable to other players. It can be said that he is the most successful football player in the world in terms of commercial value development. Ham' is not only a football player, but also a name and a brand. Whichever club gets Beckham is very beneficial to make the club more active and expand its peripheral development.
If Real Madrid wants to sell Beckham, the commercial value of him alone will be worth more than 10 million pounds, and this is only in the commercial field.
In terms of football, although Beckham's state is not as good as before, he is definitely a very qualified top professional player. His experience and his ability can bring great help to a team.
Recently, many clubs in the Premier League have been hoping to get Beckham. For this reason, the English media is also hyping it up, but many people also know that their chances of getting Beckham are very small, because they can't get Beckham. Something that's heartwarming.
The same goes for Manchester City.
If Beckham wants to come to Manchester City, either club president Waddle. Or the general manager Bi-Knicks will feel welcome with both hands, and even pay a huge salary and some necessary transfer fees for this, but they are just like other clubs, it is difficult to make a move that can impress Beckham. thing.
Because of this, when I heard Wansheng talk about renting Beckham. Bi-Knicks was very surprised. "Are you crazy?"
"I'm serious," Wan Sheng said.
Bi-Knicks and Wan Sheng looked at each other for a long time before he was sure that he was not joking. As the general manager of the team, he had to consider the possibility of the team loaning Beckham.
Normally, it is absolutely impossible for Real Madrid to loan players to Manchester City!
Especially now, Manchester City have just played a 1-1 draw with Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League group stage. It can be said. If Real Madrid cannot enter the Champions League round of 16, a large part of the reason will be caused by Manchester City. Although the football arena and football transactions are not the same concept, the relationship between Manchester City and Real Madrid is definitely not good, and there is no reason for Real Madrid. , Loan players to Manchester City, especially Beckham, even if they let Beckham stay on the bench for half a season. Nor did they pay any heed to Manchester City's loan request.
The normal way is very difficult, that can only be considered from other aspects.
Manchester City. Real Madrid.
Bee Knicks thought. Suddenly, I pulled out an item from the folder. It was the offer for Manchester City players sent by Real Madrid a few days ago. At the halfway point of the league, Wansheng did not say anything. Bi-Knicks will definitely not sell players privately. , so he didn't even look at it, he just put it down, and now he suddenly remembered to take it out and glance at it.
"Need to buy Manchester City striker Nicola Anelka, offer 30 million euros, from Real Madrid club."
Anelka?
Bea Nix smiled sarcastically and put the document down directly. At this time, Wan Sheng stepped forward and glanced at it and asked, "Is it an offer for Anelka?"
Bee Knicks nodded, "It's funny they want to buy Anelka." He doesn't think the team should sell Anelka, because Anelka is the team's top scorer.
On the contrary, Wan Sheng suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "Maybe. We should find a way to do this."
.
How much does Real Madrid want Anelka?
It is clear just by looking at the situation of Real Madrid president Calderon, who narrowly defeated Juan Palacios (8,098) by a narrow margin of 8,344 votes in July over the summer to succeed the short-term incumbent. Luis Gomez Montejuano was elected the 18th president in the club's history.
After taking office, Calderon appointed Mijatovic as director of the club's football affairs, and brought Capello to replace Bosque's position as Real Madrid coach.
Calderon promised Real Madrid fans that he would try to sign new-generation superstars such as Robben, Cesc Fabregas and Kaka, but none of them came true, so he brought confidants such as Cannavaro and Emerson, And buy Van Nistelrooy, Diarra and other powerful players.
There are many stars joining, enough to replace Raul, Ronaldo, Beckham and other old people, the media is still looking forward to Real Madrid's results, but now Real Madrid is almost eliminated in the Champions League, and only in the domestic league. The results have improved slightly, and Capello's conservative utilitarian style has also been questioned by the media and fans.
Calderon's role as team president is under great pressure.
At this moment of crisis, as the president of Real Madrid, the best way is to promise fans some stars, not just promises. Because of the failure of the summer transfer, many fans no longer believe him, so what stars are the most Fortunately, it was brought directly, so Calderon began to ask the Real Madrid transfer department to cooperate and actively invite the stars of various teams to join.
Anelka is one of the stars that Real Madrid hopes to get, and it is also a very important one. Especially after Anelka broke the Real Madrid goal at the opening of the Manchester Stadium, Real Madrid is even more interested in the French striker.
After Real Madrid came out with the news of buying Anelka, some Spanish media have begun to imagine how sharp the striker van Nistelrooy and Anelka are.
...
Wansheng has no idea that Anelka must be retained.
One is that Anelka is a well-known 'problem' player, coupled with his insatiable brother Claude, the combination of these two people only knows about salary increases, salary increases and salary increases, especially now Anelka When doing well. They are even more tireless to want a raise, plus Anelka often breaks out bad news off the field, this kind of player is always a trouble in the team.
Second, in the football training master system, Anelka's reverence value has never exceeded 80. This also represents Anelka's trust in his coaching ability. But it's only limited to his coaching ability. In other respects, Anelka simply doesn't trust him. Such players will never become a 'direct line'.
The third is that the team is not 'non-Anelka'. In half a season, Darren Bent will have enough strength to replace the current Anelka, in comparison. Anelka is nearly 28 years old. Even relying on the football training master system, he has almost no room for growth, and Darren Bent is only 22 years old, and he still has a lot of room for improvement.
Compared to the two, Darren Bent is definitely better.
There is another point, as the media said, the competition between Anelka and Darren Bent in Manchester City is fierce, and the two are in the same position. The strength is also close, Darren Bent is worse than Anelka. It's just a matter of experience. At the same time, it's impossible for a team to have two top scorers, because the team can't guarantee that both of them will have enough playing time. Just like Real Madrid now, there are many on each front. Stars, but many of them must be dissatisfied with playing time.
Manchester City has only one Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Rooney can have more chances if Ruud van Nistelrooy leaves; Arsenal also has only one Henry, if Henry does not leave, it is not easy for other strikers to emerge; AC Milan also has only one Shevchenko, a Ukrainian Leave, Gilardino and other talents have more opportunities; the same is true for Manchester City, in any case next summer, Anelka and Darren Bent will definitely have one to leave.
So, who leaves?
Without a doubt, it must be Anelka.
Therefore, Wansheng has long thought about Anelka's problem. He will definitely leave next summer. At the same time, this will also bring a lot of transfer fees to Manchester City. With this transaction, even if the club has financial problems, He doesn't have to worry about transfer fees anymore.
Then Real Madrid wants to buy Anelka, in fact, they can relax some.
Winter transfer is definitely impossible, because this season, the team still needs Anelka, but next summer, Anelka can leave, then sell it to Real Madrid, or sell it to AC Milan, Chelsea, etc. Teams are no different.
So, use this as a condition to let Real Madrid relax on the David Beckham issue?
Wansheng has an idea.
Of course, the most important trump card must not be shown as soon as it comes up. The first thing Manchester City needs to do is to test.
.
Soon Real Madrid received a request from Manchester City to loan David Beckham. The loan fee of 2 million euros, plus the condition of paying the player's salary for half a year, is enough to make any team move, especially David Beckham at Real. Madrid can't play the game at all, and he has even been put on the bench by Capello and announced to be 'suspension within the team', enjoying the 'same treatment' as Real Madrid's Prince Raul.
But when a staff member reported the news to the chairman Calderon, Calderon was not moved at all, he sneered and left the document on the ground, "Manchester City wants to loan David? How is it possible? They are crazy! "
Calderon simply ignored the news.
The feedback from Real Madrid was 'direct rejection', which was not expected by Manchester City.
But soon there was new news from Manchester City Club to Real Madrid, that is, the club was ready to conduct 'further discussions' with Real Madrid on the transfer issue of Anelka.
After the news reached Real Madrid, there was feedback very quickly. Calderon personally called and asked to speak to the club's president, Wadder.
As the presidents of European clubs, Calderon and Waddell still have a lot in common. The two had some discussions on life, career and club management, and then they mentioned the development of the two teams, and then they talked about it later. to the transfer of players.
"I hope Anelka can wear the Real Madrid jersey next year." Calderon said bluntly.
Waddell just smiled, "Mr Calderon, you should know that we can't sell Nikolai in January, he is our No. 1 scorer, and the team has to rely on him to play well in the Champions League. Now Wan Sheng has the final say in everything in the team, I have no ability to persuade that stubborn young man."
Speaking of Wansheng, Calderon became interested, "Wansheng? He is very good, and his offensive football is very popular." In line with Real Madrid's standards, it is especially important that Wansheng can lead the team to play good results, with results and good games, which really makes any club very excited.
If Capello steps down, Wansheng will also be one of the coaches Real Madrid will fight for.
Of course, Calderon wouldn't tell Wadder 'to poach your head coach', he quickly turned the topic to Anelka, "I heard that you are already preparing for Anelka's transfer. Let go, I don't quite understand the exact meaning?"
Waddle smiled and said, "We hope to reach some agreement with Real Madrid on Anelka's transfer."
"for example?"
"Right of first refusal." Waddell directly talked about the point of the issue, "Manchester City and Real Madrid have always had a very good relationship, since you want to get Anelka, then we can promise that if we are ready to sell Anelka, we will give priority to Choose to sell to Real Madrid, Mr Calderon, you should know what that means."
Waddell didn't finish, but Calderon already understood.
If a few years ago, Real Madrid would have ignored this promise, because they could use the most transfer funds of European clubs to get the players they wanted, but times are changing, and the situation in the European transfer market is different now. , The most important thing is that Real Madrid has many more competitors in the transfer market, among which Chelsea is the most troublesome.
Real Madrid can afford superstars, as can Chelsea, and they are willing to pay more.
In the face of an opponent who is worth tens of billions of dollars and is willing to spend a lot of money in the transfer market, even the grand Real Madrid feels very powerless, so this 'right of first refusal' is very important at this time. If there is This right of first refusal, at least at the same level of transfer fee, allows Real Madrid to get players first, so they are not afraid that teams such as Chelsea will come to compete.
That way, if City were to sell Anelka next summer, Real Madrid would almost certainly be able to.
Calderon thought for a while, and was immediately moved. He asked directly, "What are the conditions?"
Waddle said the answer, "We want to loan David Beckham." (To be continued ~^~)
