Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Fifth Work Plan

After the team is all dispersed, Wansheng will continue to work at the club.

When a season is over, the first task as a head coach is to consider the personnel changes for next season, that is, the transfer work in the summer.

Taking advantage of the summer transfer time, it is definitely necessary to make the team's configuration more reasonable, add some powerful players, eliminate players who have no role in the team, let those who want to leave leave, and those who don't want to leave should also consider their positioning. and many more.

Renewing contracts alone is a big problem.

However, the players who stay in the team do not need to think about Wansheng. If they are good players and they want to renew their contracts, they will have to talk to the Knicks and their agents. There is no direct relationship with Wansheng. If the relationship is over, what he has to do is to make a list of summer transfer needs, and then the club's transfer department will operate to carry out transfer work according to the needs.

In the summer transfer, the two positions that the team most need to add are the frontcourt and the wing.

Anelka is definitely going to leave. Wansheng doesn’t have to worry about his departure, but if he leaves, he will definitely come. Otherwise, the team’s striker will definitely be understaffed, so Manchester City will keep chasing Torres.

This is the most important transfer target at the moment.

Manchester City has been negotiating with Atlético de Madrid. Atlético de Madrid is planning to sell Torres, because it will bring them a huge transfer fee, but Manchester City has many competitors, and many clubs want to get the Spanish Golden Boy, the largest of which The competitor is Liverpool, and the most urgent needs for Torres are Manchester City and Liverpool.

Plus, it's the sidewalk.

David Beckham is on loan from Real Madrid. After the loan period ends, his contract with Real Madrid also ends, and he becomes a free agent, the Los Angeles Galaxy of the MLS. A big contract was offered to Beckham that was almost impossible to refuse. In the end, Beckham decided to follow the advice of his wife Victoria and go to the American Major League for gold.

It is not only Beckham who wants to leave on the flank. Sinclair is already difficult to play in Manchester City, so Sinclair also applied to the club for a transfer to leave.

Wansheng is a little sorry about this. Sinclair was under him for two years. Even if it is difficult to play, he is always a qualified substitute and his salary is not too high. Such players are not easy to find, but since the players asked to leave, there is no need for him to say anything.

With the departure of the two players, it is imminent to replenish players on the wing.

More than the above three people left. Veteran midfielder Reina also announced his retirement after the FA Cup final. Goalkeeper David James has also applied to the club to leave because he has been unable to serve as the main goalkeeper at Manchester City.

The departure of these important players, coupled with the players who are sure to be eliminated, such as Corradi, Mills, Trabelsi and other players who can hardly play the game, the list of players to leave in Manchester City has almost reached ten Man, it's still a lot of work to replenish these many players.

Like some players who were just added to the lineup. Wansheng doesn't care, the club's transfer department. Several similar players will be signed, and they can also be transferred directly from the youth team, but the players in the main team of the first team need to be considered by him.

Wansheng is optimistic about several players.

As a striker, the target must be Torres, the golden boy of Spain. This is what the Manchester City club has been doing. If Torres' transfer cannot be finalized, then he will consider other candidates.

A full-back, preferably a strong star, what Wansheng hopes to get most is the Dutch star Robben who plays for Chelsea.

Wansheng also took a fancy to Chelsea teenager Glen Johnson.

The teenager was completely abandoned by Mourinho, and it was difficult to even play games, but Wansheng felt that his strength and potential were very good, and he was very suitable for the team's fast-break football.

In addition, Martin Petrov, who Atlético de Madrid intends to sell, is also a skilled winger. Considering that his worth is less than 10 million euros, it is also worth considering introducing.

Among the promising players above, only Torres, Glen Johnson and Martin Petrov can be determined to operate. Robben's worth is too high, and it depends on the capital injection of the Thai consortium to the club.

This is also another aspect of Wansheng's headache.

At present, the Manchester City club is unstable. Although the chairman of the club Waddell promised that even if the capital injection is successful, the position and rights of Wansheng's head coach will not change, but the personnel of the corresponding departments will definitely be affected, such as Bee Knicks, It is difficult for him to continue to be the general manager. The new chairman will definitely involve his own people in the management of the club, so even if Bi-Knicks does not leave, the rights will be divided, so now he plans to transfer The roster of players that is in operation, the club may not necessarily strive for it wholeheartedly, and everything depends on the final result.

Now the board of directors of the club and the Thai consortium are still negotiating. According to Bi-Knicks, the specific results will not be fully finalized until the end of June or even the beginning of July. That is to say, the club will be unstable until then.

Wansheng handed over the prepared list to the Knicks, and the Knicks swept the same and just said, "Wansheng, what I can guarantee is that when I am still the general manager of the club, I will try my best to operate these transfers. Yes, but after that I can't guarantee it."

Wan Sheng sighed after hearing this.

The two stared at each other speechlessly.

In the end, Wansheng patted Bee Knicks on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, good luck. But I believe in your ability. Even if there is any change, you will still be the general manager of the club, and we can still work together. ."

"thanks."

Bi - Knicks also laughed.

Wan Sheng is telling the truth. In terms of managing the club, Bi-Knicks is indeed very capable. In two years, the two of them have worked together to achieve remarkable results.

Manchester City's good performance is the result of Wansheng's work, but the club's ability to turn losses into profits and pay off all debts in two seasons is the credit of Bi-Knicks.

——————

Just as Wan Sheng was focusing on the Manchester City transfer, the negotiations between Kevin Tagore and the Hong Kong Football Association also came to fruition.

Under the promotion of Hong Kong Chief Executive Zeng Yinquan and Hong Kong's political and business circles, Kevin Tagore helped Wansheng finalize a contract to temporarily lead the Chinese Hong Kong team to the Asian Cup. After that, Kevin Tagore flew back to Manchester, and Manchester City Club held brief discussions.

In fact, Wansheng wanted to take over the Hong Kong team and the Manchester City club agreed. Although the contract between him and the Manchester City club did not specify that he could not bring other teams during the contract period, this is also an unspoken rule in the football world. .

There are many football coaches in history who have worked for both the club and the national team, but if you want to temporarily coach the national team during the coaching of the club team, you still need the club to nod and agree.

If the club does not nod, then the head coach will accept the job of the national team, which will definitely make the club and even the fans dissatisfied, but Wansheng does not have this problem, because he has a high prestige in the Manchester City club, and several senior management of the club. , and even the relationship between the directors is also very good, and he only temporarily took over the work of the national team during the normal holidays, which does not conflict with the work of the club.

So after Kevin Tagore said hello and explained the contract between Tagore and Hong Kong, Chairman Wadel nodded and agreed.

Therefore, according to the contract, Wansheng will officially take over the Hong Kong team in mid-June. The plan is to conduct a two-week preparation, and then the whole team will go to Singapore to participate in this year's Asian Cup.

There's still a month left, and that's a lot of time.

Wan Sheng also took a long breath when he learned the final result. In fact, he was not too positive about taking over the Hong Kong team, because the time was during the vacation, which was equivalent to a year, and he had no vacation at all.

A season of work is already tiring, and then without vacation, a year of continuous work is always exhausting.

After completing the general planning for the transfer work, Wansheng also plans to rest for a while.

His plan was to go on holiday to Portugal with Anita, then fly back to Dalian, China, to spend a few days with his family in his hometown, before taking over the team's job in Hong Kong.

What surprised Wansheng was that at this time, many media reporters had already come to the door.

The news that Wan Sheng will be coaching the Hong Kong team is confidential and has not been announced to the public. Neither the Hong Kong side, the Manchester City club, nor himself will disclose the news, so there will not be so many media reporters to know, but these media The reporters were all directed at him.

Soon Wansheng knew what the purpose of media reporters looking for him was.

The Champions League showdown between AC Milan and Liverpool is about to start. Before the showdown, there will naturally be many experts, commentators and media analyzing and reporting on the match, so many people invariably think of Wansheng. In the past few seasons, Wansheng Both will give their opinion on the big season, and he says it's pretty accurate.

When Liverpool and AC Milan played against each other the year before, Wansheng was a guest on TV, analyzed the game in real time, and talked about "Liverpool is a team that can create miracles, they have the spirit of not admitting defeat", in the first half of AC Milan When leading by three goals, he was the only one in the world who thought Liverpool still had a chance. Then in the second half, Liverpool scored three goals in six minutes and used a penalty shootout to beat AC Milan to win the championship trophy.

Now it's AC Milan and Liverpool again.

The English media hopes that Wansheng will predict the game again. Of course, it is best to say something "good for Liverpool". Other media also hope that Wansheng can say something about the game, which will attract the attention of many fans. (To be continued ~^~)
