Chapter 247 Digging the Wall

"I heard that in the FA Cup final, Yang Huan, the owner of Southampton, made a bet with Roman Abramovich."

Sadie cautiously spoke about the rumors he had heard.

"Bet?" Drogba frowned.

Needless to say, he was definitely Abramovich's bet.

"I heard that Abramovich wanted to poach Neymar, but Southampton didn't sell it, so he proposed a bet. If they lose, Southampton will have to agree to put Neymar on the transfer market."

Drogba's face was solemn, and it was really uncomfortable to feel that he had become someone else's bet.

"go on."

Cedi sighed, "It's not just you, Matic and Sturridge are also bets."

This time Drogba sneered.

At least, Lao Tzu is not alone, and has two companions.

"Abramovich bet on Manchester United to win, Yang Huan bet on Southampton to win, as a result, Southampton won and Abramovich lost three players."

Perhaps it was to make Drogba feel better, or the news he heard was indeed the case. Sedi's next words changed the image of Yang Huan, the future boss.

"I heard that it was not designated as yours, but said that if Abramovich loses, any player in the Chelsea team can choose as they please, and after Yang Huan won, he said, Chelsea's whole team , he can only see Drogba."

Drogba listened, and his chest was also quite high.

It can be seen that the young boss of Southampton is still very knowledgeable.

The most hateful thing is Abramovich, who even took all the players in the team as a bet, which is outrageous!

"Do the rest of the team know?" Drogba asked indifferently.

Sadie thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't know."

But soon, another sentence was added.

"But I believe that there should be more or less wind."

Even I can gather this kind of information,

Those big brokerage firms must have collected more, closer to the real insider.

"If he did this, the morale of the team must have plummeted!" Drogba sneered disdainfully.

Sedi was also a little helpless. "For a rich man like them, what do the players think in their hearts, how can they take care of it?"

It's millions and tens of millions of pounds, who cares what the players think?

With that kung fu, you can make more money and bring in stars.

"I also heard that Southampton just completed a huge £60 million transfer."

"Sixty million pounds?" Drogba's dark face was full of shock.

"Who?"

Cedi shook his head, "I don't know, I just heard people mention it. They said that Southampton had already booked the transfer bid for this summer!"

Who said no?

Now that the transfer market is so sluggish, he still spends 60 million pounds to introduce a midfielder?

"It seems that this Championship team is really ambitious!" Drogba has changed his mind about Southampton.

If you put aside Ibrahimovic as a substitute, if Southampton promises the main position, Drogba feels that with the ambition and courage of this team, it is not too bad to play by himself.

But now, as long as he thinks that he is going to be a substitute for Ibrahimovic, he feels very uncomfortable.

Why?

Just because he joined a year earlier than him?

"Ceddy." Drogba's eyes flashed a hint of determination.

He has also experienced countless ups and downs, ups and downs, and his heart has been tempered very firm.

"Well." Sadie listened carefully.

"Let's go to Southampton!"

"Really?" Sadie was a little surprised.

Drogba nodded heavily, "Since people don't take us seriously and don't want to keep us, then there's no point in continuing to stay!"

Sadie thought about it, and nodded, feeling that it made sense.

"Ibrahimovic is very strong, but Drogba is not a vegetarian. No matter how strong he is, I will fight with him to see who is the best center in the world!" When he said this, Drogba exuded the domineering aura of a monster.

This is the world's top center, Warcraft Drogba should have the momentum.

Sadie was also immediately deeply infected.

As long as Drogba wants to do, he believes that there is nothing that cannot be done.

"As for Chelsea and Abramovich, they will definitely regret their decision!"

Drogba clenched his fist so hard that his veins were exposed, gritted his teeth, and said word by word.

"One day, I will completely pay off today's grievances with them!"

…………

…………

Entering the second half of June, with the U21 European Youth Championship and the Toulon Cup and other events coming to an end, the America's Cup began to enter the field of vision of fans.

Although Southampton is a Championship team, two players have been able to participate in the Copa America.

They are the main midfielder of the Chilean national team, Vidal, and the talented star of the Brazilian national team, Neymar.

As for another good performance, James Rodriguez, who has not yet been selected for the Colombian national team, but represented Colombia in the Toulon Cup and defeated the French team where Pogba and Schneiderlin were. Win the Toulon Cup.

With the approaching of the new season, the transfer market has also begun to become hot, and the best news is frequent.

One of the most beautiful is undoubtedly Chelsea.

After bringing in Benatia and Adam Lallana for £30 million and then £40 million from Southampton, Chelsea continued to spend £22 million from Anderlecht in Belgium. The price of the introduction of teenager Lukaku.

This is a rookie center who is optimistic about the new World of Warcraft.

In addition, midfielder Meireles was brought in from Liverpool for £15 million.

After the new coach Boas took office, he threatened to carry out drastic reforms to Chelsea to regain competitiveness for the Blues.

The Portuguese coach, who is regarded as Mourinho II by the outside world and who has just led Porto to the treble, is also expected by Chelsea fans.

Manchester United are not to be outdone. After the Saints youngster Oxlade-Chamberlain was tragically defeated by Arsenal, Ferguson successively introduced goalkeeper De Gea from Atletico Madrid at a price of about 20 million pounds, Phil Jones from Blackburn, and Aspen Don Villa introduced winger Ashley Young.

Three transfers costing nearly 60 million pounds, Manchester United's new season can be described as ambitious.

It is widely rumored that Ferguson insisted on all three fronts last season, but he was very dissatisfied with only winning the league title in the end. He is determined to make a difference in the Champions League and domestic cups in the new season.

As Manchester United's rivals in the same city, Manchester City's movement is not small.

Poached the core of Nasri from Arsenal, as well as the main left-back Clichy, introduced midfielder Hargreaves from Manchester United, and introduced Argentina's leading striker Acqui from Atletico Madrid at a price of 45 million pounds Luo.

All kinds of measures have made people look forward to the new season of Manchester City.

Even after cleaning Adebayor, Santa Cruz, Boateng, Bellamy and other stars, Manchester City's lineup is still astonishingly huge, and its strength has steadily improved. It is the Premier League title in the new season. One of the top teams.

However, when the media in the UK, Europe and even the whole world are generally hyping up the wealthy giants of the Premier League, they always mention the Saints Southampton intentionally or unintentionally.

Even many reporters have not noticed that Southampton has begun to be included in the ranks of Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and other teams.

This ranking is very strange, and the logic is very strange.

Because Southampton is a British Championship team, but Manchester United and other teams are Premier League giants.

However, when it comes to the Premier League, it is always inevitable that Southampton will be mentioned.

There are even many fans who are very concerned about Southampton's every move.

When the Premier League tycoons were very rich in signings in the transfer market, Southampton sold 11 players in the team including captain Adam Lallana and main defender Benatia.

What a bloodbath!

This also makes people very concerned about Southampton.

Because after selling the players, they have recovered more than 100 million pounds of funds in total, plus successively signed a number of sponsors such as Kellon Family, Heineken, Nike and Adidas, Southampton's financial resources are definitely not a problem.

But after entering late June, the team has yet to make a move in the transfer market.

This also caused concern among many Saints fans.

Especially when the giants such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City are all signing new players.

The rumors in the media are even more constant, and even many media are suspicious that Southampton can no longer support it.

Just as the fans were looking forward to it, Southampton took the lead in announcing that the team had brought in England international defender Gary Cahill from Bolton at a price of seven million pounds.

The England star once attracted the attention of many Premier League teams including Manchester United last summer, and is worth as much as 25 million pounds.

But still no team shot.

By the summer of this year, with only one year left on the contract, Sun Yue represented Southampton to go north to Bolton and negotiated the England international, and the price of seven million pounds was a bargain.

This has also been interpreted by the outside world as Southampton filling the vacancy after Benatia's transfer.

But there are still people who worry about whether the team's central defender combination of Varane and Gary Cahill in the new season can meet the team's multi-line operations, and whether the teenager Nastasic can help the team.

This is also the concern of many people.

The day after the announcement of the introduction of Gary Cahill, Southampton officially announced again that the team brought in teenager Danny Sturridge from Chelsea, and the transfer fee was not announced.

Chelsea's official website also announced the news.

This immediately triggered a strong response from the outside world.

Southampton even ran to dig Chelsea's corner?

Cow, it's so awesome!

Saints fans are even more excited online.

"Aren't you Chelsea here to poach our players? Reciprocity, we will poach yours too!"

But soon, Chelsea fans fought back.

"We dug the two of you, and you dug one of us, why are you so arrogant?"

However, the next day, the Southampton club quickly gave the fans the weapons to fight back again.

The official website and WeChat announced at the same time that the team introduced Serbian midfielder Nemanja Matic from Chelsea.

The transfer fee is still not announced.

This time the Southampton fans rejoiced.

"Two versus two, it's even!"

"Do you know why the transfer fee wasn't announced? Save your face, you know?"

"Wow Kaka, The Sun said that these two players are free transfers!"

"Southampton got a big bargain, look at Sturridge, look at Matic, the strength is not mentioned!"

"Chelsea is taking advantage of it, don't explain it!"

"I finally know now, the team's transfer operation is too powerful, is there any?"

"Three players, strengthen three positions, namely the front, middle and back three lines, very pragmatic!"

"I said it long ago, Young Master Huan will never let us down!"

"Long live Young Master Huan, continue to dig into Chelsea's corner, we support you!"

There are also Chelsea fans who are questioning the transfer operation of the management, thinking that Adam Lallana and Benatia were brought in at such a high price, but Sturridge and Matic were sent away for free. Pit father.

"We have reason to wonder if the management took Southampton's money?"

Even many Chelsea players expressed their incomprehension of the team's transfer operation when interviewed by the media.

This even includes leaders such as Captain Terry and Lampard.

But Chelsea's troubles have nothing to do with Southampton.

Southampton held a press conference on WeChat for Gary Cahill, Sturridge and Matic a day after announcing their move.

With the experience of the previous operation, this time it is more skillful to operate.

Coupled with the fact that WeChat itself has nearly 400 million users, and the impact of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's press conference last year, this press conference has also attracted the attention of over one million WeChat users. .

Most of them are UK based users.

After this press conference, Yang Huan sent a WeChat message, just one sentence.

"Tomorrow at half past nine, who is interested in picking up the plane at Heathrow Airport?"

Although there is only one sentence, it has been forwarded by countless fans and fans who follow Yang Huan.

Even major British newspapers have carried out a catch-all report based on this sentence.

Many people are speculating, who is the player Yang Huan is going to pick up?

Is it Drogba, who has been rumored for a long time?

But soon, this was left out.

The reason is very simple. Drogba is already in London, so why bother to go to Heathrow Airport to pick up the plane?

As a result, thousands of Saints fans from Southampton, London and surrounding areas gathered at Heathrow early the next morning, as well as journalists and interview teams from major media in the UK and Europe.

Even, even, Sky, Independent and other TV stations have specially arranged for the shooting team to go to Heathrow Airport.

Those who didn't know the situation thought it was a visit from a foreign leader.

Who would have thought that what caused all this was just a word from our young master Huan? ()
