Chapter 916: 2012 Summer Transfer (2012)
It wasn’t until the Aston Villa team’s flight took off from Hong Kong and returned to Birmingham that the flight was in the air, the Aston Villa club officially announced on the official website:
Aston Villa reached an agreement with a club in Shanghai to officially sign the 21-year-old Chinese player Wen Lei with a transfer fee of 1 million euros. Aston Villa welcomes this young Chinese offensive player to join.
The news immediately detonated the domestic sports media.
For a long time, domestic public opinion has been discussing, or it can be said to be asking (complaining), that Aston Villa has Kagawa Shinji in the Aston Villa team. Now that there are Japanese players, when will they be able to sign a Chinese player.
A Chinese-funded team, the owner is Chinese, the head coach is Chinese, and there are no Chinese players. Isn't this inappropriate?
Complaints are complaints, but rational media and fans are still sober. The level of domestic players is far from meeting Aston Villa's requirements.
Therefore, these discussions are more like complaints.
At this time, Aston Villa suddenly, it can be said that without warning, announced that they had signed Wen Lei, which really shocked many people.
The media is excited.
They all want to interview Aston Villa's top management as soon as possible, especially Fang Jue.
Then I realized that Fang Jue and Aston Villa had finished their trip to Asia and returned to Birmingham.
This made the reporters lame, complaining why Aston Villa didn't announce the news sooner.
Most reporters have no chance to go to Birmingham for interviews. At this time, the size and financial strength of those big media are reflected. These big media either send special reporters to the UK, or hire local reporters in the UK 'Special correspondent', follow up on the big news.
...
After returning to Birmingham from Hong Kong, Fang Jue gave the team a day off.
The new season of the Premier League starts more than ten days later. According to the schedule of the new season, Aston Villa's opponent in the first round of the new season is the newly promoted West Ham United.
However, in four days, Aston Villa will usher in the first official game of the new season.
As last season's Premier League champions, they will face last season's FA Cup champion Chelsea in the Community Shield.
The players are on vacation, and Aston Villa's footsteps in the transfer market have not stopped.
Aston Villa hired an English teacher for Wen Lei to let him learn English.
At the same time, it was arranged for him to temporarily live in the player dormitory.
As for the future of Wen Lei, Fang Jue has two ideas, one is to arrange for Wen Lei to play in the U23 team and reserve team of Aston Villa, and the other is to loan Wen Lei out, most likely to go to Belgium or Play in Portugal's second tier to gain game experience.
As for which one to choose, Fang Jue has not yet made a final decision.
...
At this time, Aston Villa's transfer deal to introduce young South Korean international Sun Xingmin is almost complete.
The player himself is naturally willing to come to Aston Villa, and it can be said that he is overjoyed.
Coupled with the efforts of the Korean Football Association and Korean companies behind the scenes, the Hamburg team that Sun Xingmin is currently playing for cannot retain people.
According to the latest player worth of the German transfer, the 20-year-old Sun Xingmin's worth is about 4.5 million euros.
Aston Villa did not lower the price, and directly offered 6.5 million euros.
Of the 6.5 million euros, 2 million euros were sponsored by Korean companies.
Hamburg accepted the offer.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with Aston Villa's willingness to rent Sun Xingmin back to the Hamburg team for a season.
On August 9, Aston Villa officially announced that the team signed the 20-year-old South Korean young international Sun Xingmin from the Bundesliga team Hamburg for a transfer fee of 6.5 million euros (about 5.1 million pounds). Five years, with a priority renewal right for the sixth year.
At the same time, Aston Villa's official website announced that the club will loan Sun Xingmin to Hamburg for one season at a price of 500,000 euros.
...
After the transfer deal came out, South Korea naturally cheered. Anyway, someone from Smecta has played for Aston Villa, so we can't let the foot basin be pretentious.
The public opinion in Japan is sarcasm. They feel that Aston Villa signed Sun Xingmin not because of competitive factors at all, but to develop the Korean market.
One is that he was loaned out immediately after signing, and the other is that he can get a lot of playing opportunities in Aston Villa. Sun Xingmin and Shinji Kagawa are simply incomparable.
South Korea is not happy anymore. They said that Fang Jue attaches great importance to Sun Xingmin: the sixth-year priority renewal right in the contract is an example.
Japanese media and fans expressed: Haha.
When the Japanese media and fans quarreled with the Korean media and fans, the domestic fans remained silent. Although Wen Lei had just joined Aston Villa, everyone was very aware of the gap between Wen Lei and these two... It's better to keep silent, the right is to save character.
...
Ferguson was annoyed by Fang Jue, so he showed his temper and was unwilling to let Kushchak come to Aston Villa.
Fang Jue must introduce another No. 2 goalkeeper in the transfer market.
In the end, Aston Villa chose to sign the old Italian goalkeeper Cudicini whose contract with Tottenham Hotspur expired.
The Italian veteran is already thirty-eight years old, but he is still in pretty good condition. Also, Kudinic does not need a transfer fee and his salary is relatively low. As a second goalkeeper who is on standby on the bench, he can still Competent.
For Cudicini himself, the old goalkeeper has played in the Premier League for so many years, and he is unwilling to make a living in other league environments. If he can stay in the Premier League, it is naturally the best.
And the strength of Aston Villa is obvious to all. Joining Aston Villa, it is very likely to get a few championship trophies in the twilight of his career, wouldn't it be beautiful.
In addition, the team's young central defender Nathan Baker was also loaned out by Aston Villa. Fang Jue loaned the young man to the Wolves in the English Championship for training.
For the players produced by the team's youth training, Fang Jue will not easily clean up and give up, and is still willing to give young people more opportunities. For a team, the players trained by their own youth training can become talents and continue to transfuse blood to the first team , This is the most benign development, and it can also win greater support from fans.
Fang Jue, another young central defender from the youth academy, stayed in the team. He hoped that by the side of Nesta and Thiago Silva, this young man would be enlightened and make progress.
If under the guidance of Thiago Silva, the Brazilian master Nesta, and Senderos, who was rescued by Fang Jue and reborn as a new student, he has not become a talent, Fang Jue will only I can completely give up on this young general.
