Chapter VIII Two Generals
Luis Suarez didn't take Atletico Madrid's invitation seriously at all!
Who is he?
He was the top scorer in the Eredivisie last season and is the Dutch footballer!
With the brilliance of last season, coupled with the performance of the World Cup so far, everyone in the world knows that he, Luis Suarez, will be the future star of international football.
So far, many clubs have won the league with Ajax and discussed his transfer, including AC Milan, Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid... Among them, what does Atletico Madrid count?
As for Atlético de Madrid coach Wan Sheng?
Suarez didn't care about it at all. He believed that no matter which team he was in, he could perform well, and no matter which coach he played under, he would be the best star in the team.
So even if he leaves Ajax, he will not consider Atletico Madrid at all, joining a mid-level La Liga team, how can he directly join a giant!
Suarez's idea may be a bit extreme, but it is actually the general mentality of many young stars.
Compared with Real Madrid, AC Milan, Manchester United and other giants, Atletico Madrid is nothing, especially for confident young stars, Wansheng is not very attractive, they are more eager to join the giants, get The bigger the contract, the higher the fame.
Atlético de Madrid, can't participate in next season's European competitions, how attractive can it be.
The Suarez incident also gave Wan Sheng a wake-up call.
Everything had been so smooth before.
In fact, even in Manchester City, Manchester City won the Premier League championship for two consecutive seasons in order to attract the attention of countless media and fans, and recently attracted stars like Torres to join.
Atlético de Madrid is also a mid-level La Liga team with 'a bit of money', and it's too difficult to attract top stars.
Even if Wansheng has appeal, all the big stars who have nothing to do with him are very confident. When they go to other giants, they also believe that they can succeed.
So it is very difficult for the team to bring in big stars.
Just like Chelsea in 2003, the Russian oligarch Abramovich made a very generous shot, but he still couldn't help Chelsea to recruit real big stars. All they could buy were 'second-rate' stars. Just ignore Chelsea.
The same goes for Atletico Madrid now.
This time, after closing the door in Suarez, Wansheng still has something to gain.
Next, Wansheng pays close attention to the World Cup games, checking the performance of players from various national teams, so as to find out who is suitable for Atletico Madrid.
————
In the World Cup, there are too many outstanding strikers.
German teenager Thomas Muller is the most dazzling one. Muller, who is not yet 21 years old, was only promoted to the first team of Bayern Munich last year, but he is now the top scorer of the German team.
Spanish striker David Villa is also quite good. In May, he just signed to join Barcelona with a heavyweight transfer worth of 40 million euros.
Other outstanding performances include Higuain, Suarez, Fabiano and many other players. What makes Wansheng happy is that Diego Forlan, who played on behalf of Uruguay, performed quite well. After the quarter-final match against Ghana, He has personally scored four goals, becoming the player with the most goals in Uruguay and even in the World Cup.
Disappointingly, there are very few players who have performed well above the inventory and have the hope of joining Atlético de Madrid.
In the end, Wansheng had to settle for the next best thing and target the veteran.
Klose.
After watching the quarter-finals between Argentina and Germany, Wansheng set his sights on Klose.
In this Argentina-Germany match, Germany won very smoothly. All four goals in the game belonged to Germany, and Klose made a pass and shot, and his performance was quite eye-catching.
Under the 'Eye of Strength Evaluation', Klose's comprehensive ability evaluation can be seen at a glance.
The comprehensive evaluation of '90 points' is not very strong for a forward player, but Wansheng values Klose's rich game experience and stable mentality.
Klose had only three chances in the whole game, but he seized two of them and made a good score of one pass and one shot.
This ability to seize opportunities is something that many forwards with stronger evaluations of strength do not have.
Wanting to introduce Klose, Wan Sheng suddenly felt that he had thought badly before.
Perhaps it was influenced by the successful introduction of Torres before the last season of coaching Manchester City. After taking charge of Atletico Madrid, Wansheng has been considering the introduction of a strong and talented striker.
But in fact, the team already has talented strikers.
Aguero is only 22 years old. He played 31 times for Atletico Madrid last season and scored 17 goals. This efficiency is quite good for a 22-year-old young striker.
In addition to Aguero, the team also has an efficient veteran like Diego Forlan.
Coupled with the young player Wang Qiuming brought by himself, if his performance is normal, it is enough to serve as a qualified substitute.
So there are three strikers.
One is the efficient Forlan, the other is the talented striker Aguero, and there is a very young substitute. What is missing is not a talented striker at all. As a very efficient veteran, Klose is enough to make up for the last remaining. Location.
The four players on the front line were just balanced.
If you add another talented striker like Suarez, on the contrary, there will be conflicts in positioning.
So Suarez's rejection of the transfer request is a good thing.
Wansheng figured it out.
After the decision was made, Wan Sheng quickly asked the club to contact Bayern Munich.
Compared with Suarez, Klose's transfer is much easier.
Suarez is only 24 years old and is about to enter the peak period of professional players. His future performance is predictable. He will definitely become a top striker. A lot of giants hope to get this talent.
Klose is the exact opposite.
Klose is 32 years old, and no one can guarantee the state of a 32-year-old veteran. In addition, he has only one year left on his contract with Bayern Munich, and Bayern Munich does not even plan to renew his contract with Klose.
In this case, when it was learned that Atletico Madrid wanted to get Klose, the top management of Bayern Munich did not think much about it and started negotiations with Atletico Madrid.
It only took two days for the negotiation results to come out.
As long as Klose himself agrees, Atletico Madrid can take him away with a transfer fee of 4 million euros.
Then you can directly contact the players.
Wansheng has contacted Klose’s agent Xu Te.
During the World Cup, it is not easy for players to go out alone, so Xute came to meet Wansheng on behalf of Klose. In order to keep the transfer work secret, the place was still in the hotel room.
"Thank you for your attention to Milos!" Xu Te smiled and shook hands with Wan Sheng.
Hütte was really happy when he learned that Atletico Madrid was interested in Klose and soon reached an agreement with Bayern Munich.
Hütte is not a very successful agent, and Klose is his most valuable star. There are several other young players, who have not played much in Germany.
Even Klose has not left Germany for more than ten years, and has not performed well in Bayern Munich in the past two years.
In 2007, Klose was the most valuable star in Germany. At that time, many giants were interested in him, and "French Football" assessed his worth at 30 million euros.
But after coming to Bayern Munich, Klose has been difficult to adapt to coach Van Gaal.
As a result, Klose did not perform well at the club. Last season, with the arrival of Gomez and the outbreak of young teenager Muller, Klose could only be reduced to a bench. He only scored 5 goals for Bayern Munich in a single season. a goal.
Although Klose has performed quite well in the German national team, Bayern Munich has actually lost his place.
This is one of the reasons why Bayern Munich is eager to deal with Klose.
Xuter originally thought that Klose would be free to join other teams next year, but he did not expect Atletico Madrid to consider inviting him to join.
In fact, the biggest obstacle to Klose signing is the high salary.
Klose is one of Germany's top stars, and his salary at Bayern Munich is 7 million euros before tax.
According to Germany's tax policy, high-income people below 10 million euros pay a tax rate of 44.76%, and Klose's after-tax annual salary is about 3.8668 million euros.
This is something that Atlético de Madrid must also consider.
On behalf of Klose, Xute put forward two 'requests' for Atlético de Madrid to choose, one is to sign a (2+1) contract, and if the number of appearances is sufficient, the contract will be automatically renewed for one year, but it costs 2 million euros Signing fee, the second is to sign a guaranteed three-year contract.
The salary contracts for the two options have to be negotiated in detail, but even if Klose takes the initiative to talk about a salary cut, his salary will definitely not be lower.
After Wan Sheng thought about it, he finally shook his head and asked Xu Te to discuss with the transfer department of Atlético de Madrid. Anyone can do anything. He is the head coach of the team, not a professional negotiator about salary contracts.
But no matter what the final salary of Klose will be, Wansheng informed the club in advance to choose the latter.
If memory is not wrong, Klose has had a long career.
In the 2014 World Cup, he still played for Germany and scored goals, which means that after four years, even if his physical fitness has declined, he is still in good shape, so signing a three-year contract is completely possible. accepted.
Wansheng doesn't care about these details.
During the contract negotiation with Klose, the entire England team has gone home, and Morris has also flown to Madrid, Spain.
Atlético de Madrid soon signed Maurice to a three-year contract through the agency of the Tagorewan Group.
In this way, two generals, Klose and Morris, will definitely join the team.
After that, the main lineup was replenished, and there was only one target left, and that was David Silva or Ozil. Either one of the two would be a heavyweight transfer. (To be continued ~^~)
