Chapter 957 How to Tell Others to Play?
Like most other Serie A teams, Juventus' headquarters are not located in the stadium.
In the past, it was because the ownership of the stadium did not belong to Juventus, but now it is because of getting used to it.
Compared with the bustling city of Milan, Ferraris Avenue in Turin is like a small street at the junction of urban and rural areas.
Juventus' headquarters is here, a building that looks very, very ordinary from the outside.
If you insist on finding out something special, it is that the Juventus office building has four floors, while most of the surrounding buildings are one or two-story bungalows.
Although it looks ordinary from the outside, it is quite elegantly decorated inside.
It's not luxurious, on the contrary, it's very ordinary and a bit old, but it's neatly organized and makes people feel comfortable.
All the departments of the club are gathered in this small four-story building. The chairman, general manager, sports department, finance department, marketing department, public relations department... even the sales department and football promotion department are here.
This made the small building, which was not originally spacious, appear even more crowded.
Fortunately, the division of each floor and area is relatively standardized, so there is no problem at all.
But for all the sponsors, when they come here, their first impression is that this is the heart of Juventus?
Therefore, in order to better reflect the image of the club, they have already begun to propose plans to build a training base around the new stadium, as well as the club's office building.
It is said that people like this these days!
Go up the spiral staircase in the lobby on the first floor to the third floor, directly opposite, the largest one is the conference room.
At this moment, the lights are on in the conference room, and the heads of various departments are sitting here, discussing various matters of the team this summer.
There are mainly two major events, one is the transfer and signings, which is what fans are most concerned about.
Another is the summer preparations, the highlight of which is the International Champions Cup.
When Juventus drew lots this year, they were drawn to the Asian division. This is a very good choice for the people in the Juventus marketing department, because they have always been in North America in the past, and now they just come to Asia to expand the Bianconeri. Influence.
If you can take the opportunity to sign a few sponsorship contracts,
That would be even better.
However, the focus of the management's discussion is still the transfer.
Juventus failed to qualify for the group stage in the UEFA Champions League last season, which is very regrettable, but what is even more sad is that they lost the Serie A championship, which is not a good phenomenon.
You know, Italian football has always been conservative and attaches great importance to its own league.
Juventus has risen strongly in the past few years, and it has always been firmly rooted in its home league. It wants to reproduce the dominance of the Bianconeri in the past, but now it is replaced by Inter Milan. This must not stop there.
What is even more unacceptable is that the Inter Milan team has a group of outstanding stars. On the other hand, Juventus lags behind Inter Milan in terms of player strength and coaching.
Although they can sarcastically say to the outside world that it is easy to do things with money, but in fact, they understand in their hearts that the rise of Inter Milan is not just as simple as having money.
Can such a group of players be assembled with money?
This is too simple to imagine European football!
Therefore, Juventus this summer, from top to bottom, have a unified goal, which is to regain the league championship.
If you want to regain the league championship, you have to strengthen signings and improve the strength of the team.
Coach Allegri's transfer goal for the team is to strengthen the midfield, especially the midfield, wings and forwards.
After Llorente left the team, Juventus's offense has always had problems, and it is quite necessary to introduce a high-level striker.
As for the midfielder, although there are powerful stars such as Pirlo, Marchisio, Guarin and Hernanes, Pirlo is already old and must introduce another creative midfielder to succeed Pirlo. class.
As for the wing, this has always been a problem for Juventus.
In the Italian league, there has always been a traditional saying that the side wins the world.
Although Italy is not rich in wide players, looking at the past few years, every Serie A overlord often has strong wide stars, so it is quite necessary to strengthen the wide signings.
The goal is very clear, and the target is locked early, but there is a problem in the signing process.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the entire meeting room seemed a bit inappropriate.
"I just spoke to the general manager of Schalke 04 on the phone. They told me that Draxler's transfer to Bayern Munich has basically been finalized, and the transfer fee will be as high as 40 million euros."
"In addition, I also got confirmation from Hoffenheim that Firmino will switch to Bayern Munich, and his worth will reach 40 million euros!"
Giuseppe Marotta announced these two unsatisfactory news in his unique voice.
Draxler and Firmino, these are the more popular frontcourt attackers in the transfer market this summer, both from the Bundesliga, but they were all eaten by Bayern Munich.
Eighty million euros, the Bundesliga class bully looks scared too!
"Last season, the North King Hamburger rose strongly in the Bundesliga. Although it only won the runner-up in the league in the end, it once defeated Bayern Munich and successfully reached the top. This is too great a threat to Bayern Munich."
Speaking of this, Giuseppe Marotta shook his head and sighed, "More importantly, Bayern Munich originally wanted to introduce Douglas Costa and Kingsley Coman from the Hamburg team to replace Franck Ribery. And Robben, but Beiersdorf in Hamburg is not willing to sell at all, and the players are not willing to leave the team."
"This is not a good thing for Bayern Munich!"
You know, Bayern Munich was able to run amok in the Bundesliga in the past, relying on their strong strength and abundant capital. Their style of work has always been, if I can kill you on the court, then we will solve it on the court.
If I can't beat you on the pitch, then I'll poach you in the transfer market.
But now, they can't beat Hamburg on the court. In the two rounds of the matchup last season, Bayern Munich had a loss and a tie, unbeaten!
The idea of digging Hamburg to death in the transfer market failed, so Bayern Munich could only turn to other alternatives, that is Draxler and Firmino.
These two players should be regarded as the most confident introduction of Bayern Munich.
But in this way, Juventus will suffer miserably.
Originally Juventus was also interested in these two players and wanted to get one of them.
But now, both players have failed.
"What about the striker?" Club president Andre Agnelli asked with concern, frowning.
"I got in touch with Manchester City and they told me that Dzeko has left the team, but it has not been announced yet."
"Leaving the team?" Andre Agnelli was a little surprised.
"Yes, they brought in Abu Bakar from Hamburg. Dzeko is part of the deal and will switch to Hamburg in the new season."
"Burger?" Andrea Agnelli pronounced the name.
Marotta sighed, "Yes, Hamburg is also Yang Huan's team."
"I wipe!" Andrea Agnelli cursed angrily.
Marotta smiled wryly and shook his head, "Bayern Munich felt threatened because of this. Dzeko's strength is unquestionable. The former Bundesliga golden boots, strong frontcourt control, and partners Douglas Costa and Kingsley. Koeman, the front trident of the Hamburg team, is only stronger than last season!"
Andre Agnelli couldn't help shaking his head, what kind of people are Yang Huan's subordinates?
The transfer operation is so shrewd and efficient, isn't this too outrageous? How to ask others to play?
"Yang Huan's current style of play has obviously gone beyond the scope of professional football. He has organized a group of consultants to study team tactics, analyze team problems, and give specific solutions. He even draws up a list of signings. Leave it to professionals to be responsible for the specific operations.”
There are specialties in the art industry, some people are good at scouting players, but some people are good at transfer operations, each has its own strengths.
"I also received news that it is said that Bayern Munich will be able to bleed a lot this time. They have introduced Draxler, Firmino and Benatia with a lot of money. A very important reason is that they decided to sell several players in the team. Players cash out."
"Who?" Andre Ragnari asked eagerly.
"Reina, but has already gone to Naples."
Andre Ranieri smiled slightly, they have Buffon, not less than a Reina.
"It is said that Gotze and Dante will also leave the team!"
"Gotze and Dante?" Andre Ranieri's eyes lit up immediately.
Needless to say, Gotze is the most promising talented midfielder in Germany, and although Dante can't play in Bayern Munich, he still has strength.
Although Juventus is not short of people on the defensive line, those who pick up foreigners from wealthy teams are usually synonymous with high quality and low price. Juventus has never done such things, such as Pirlo.
If Gotze and Dante can be introduced from Bayern Munich, it will greatly enhance the strength of Juventus.
"Dante does not consider leaving the Bundesliga, because he will be able to get a German green card in two years, so..."
Giuseppe Marotta sighed, "As for Gotze, I haven't thought about leaving the Bundesliga for the time being. Moreover, according to the information I got, Gotze's agent has been in close contact with Hamburg. The reason why Bayern Munich The reason for wanting to sell Gotze is because Hamburg paid a high price, which is said to have reached 30 million euros."
It's hard to say whether it's worth 30 million euros to introduce a Gotze who can't play the main force in Bayern Munich.
But if it is a team from other leagues, I am afraid they may not do such a thing, after all, the risk is too great.
In the Bundesliga, Hamburg is probably the only one who can give this amount of money.
After they sold Abu Bakar, they made a lot of money, of course rich and powerful.
When Andre Agnelli heard this, he shook his head and sighed depressedly.
"Cuadrado went to Inter Milan, Dzeko went to Hamburg, Naples never thought of selling Hamsik, and now Draxler and Firmino are frustrated again, and Gotze is destined not to come, We now have only one last target left!"
Speaking of which, Andrea Agnelli stared at Giuseppe Marotta.
"Recently, there has been news about Inter Milan everywhere, and we lost to our opponents in the competition to introduce Cuadrado. Seeing that Inter Milan is getting stronger and stronger, we must make a difference. "
Giuseppe Marotta nodded: "I understand, Mr. Agnelli, we are already hurrying."
After a pause, he played a new ppt on the big screen in the conference room, with two players on it.
"Sevilla's striker Bacca, Ajax's striker Luis Adriano, these two players are our targets, especially Bacca, but it is said that Milan's Tohir and others are also We are actively recruiting this player."
There is no way, stronger players are too sought-after, if they can't compete with their opponents, then they can only settle for the next best thing.
Fighting against Milan is always more likely to win than fighting against a wealthy team.
"As for the midfield, we also have a goal, and that is Roma's..."
But when Giuseppe Marotta played a ppt of Roma players, Andrea Agnelli's cell phone on the table suddenly dinged.
The chairman of Juventus took a look at the phone, then looked at Marotta, and smiled wryly.
"Needless to say, he was also taken first!"
For a moment, everyone in the audience was dumbfounded.
what is happening?
