Chapter 713: Transfer Predators

After the World Cup in South Africa, the European transfer market did not experience the expected blowout. Among the 736 players participating in the World Cup, except for Henry's move to the American Major League, only Denmark's 31-year-old veteran Romedal went to the United States. European football’s “remote province” gold rush in Greece’s Olympiacos.

The reason why the World Cup in South Africa failed to leverage the transfer market is mainly because the overall competition of this World Cup has surpassed the role of stars. Superstars such as Messi, Ronaldo, Kaká, and Gerrard have all experienced depreciation, and the only ones who have performed brilliantly are The only ones are Xavi, Iniesta, and Villa from Spain, and Sneijder and Robben from the Netherlands.

Xavi and Iniesta are both Barcelona's absolute main players. Villa has just transferred to Barcelona. Robben is Bayern's absolute main force. Only Sneijder's position in Inter Milan is a bit awkward. Not only is he not the core, he is even considered the absolute main player. Not on.

Before the World Cup, Sneijder was just an abandoned player from Real Madrid and had no confidence to ask for anything from Mourinho and the top management. Now he has won the World Cup runner-up and performed extremely well. Inter Milan has a new coach. Of course, Sneijder He would no longer be satisfied with his original status. He did not dare to directly say that he would replace Gao Xiaodong's core position. He only asked for a salary increase and the main attacking midfielder, and refused to play other positions.

A salary increase for Sneijder is something Inter Milan can agree to. After the end of the season, Inter Milan began to negotiate contract extensions with the players from last season. Not to mention Sneijder, even the mascot Ma had to retire last season. Trazzi and Cordoba are both ready to renew their contracts for another year.

Benitez can also agree with the main position, but Sneijder's request to play as an attacking midfielder is unacceptable to Benitez. In Benitez's view, Gao Xiaodong is the best candidate for the attacking midfielder because Gao Xiaodong penetrates forward. He can threaten the goal and retreat to help defend the midfielder. This is something Sneijder cannot do. Benitez hopes to put Sneijder on the wing.

Sneijder shined in the World Cup and demanded the absolute main force, but Pandev's position was awkward. The very strong Pandev was dissatisfied with his substitute status and asked Inter Milan for either the main position or a transfer.

Gao Xiaodong still does not renew his contract, Balotelli wants to transfer, Sneijder and Pandev want the main position, and the new coach Benitez wants to buy Mascherano, Kuyt and Agger. If Inter Milan all If you buy, Inter Milan will have to sell at least three more players.

Although Inter Milan agreed to Benitez's transfer request before Benitez arrived, after seeing the outstanding performance of Sneijder and other three-time champions in the World Cup, Inter Milan's senior management regretted it. In Blanca's view, the best players are already in Inter Milan. As long as the main players who won the Triple Crown last season can be retained, results will be guaranteed, but substitutions will be more risky.

Moratti attaches more importance to friendship. He feels that these players have made great contributions to realizing his Champions League dream. Now that they have just won the Triple Crown, if they sell their players, they will definitely be ridiculed by the world. He hopes to try his best to avoid selling them. issued a request to Benitez.

Obviously, Moratti's idea is too naive. Benitez originally planned to change his players. The three players he asked to buy are all Liverpool's main players. It is impossible for them to come if Inter Milan does not promise the main players. Given the three main players requested by Benitez, it is impossible for Inter Milan to keep all the players. Inter Milan must make a choice between selling and buying.

Inter Milan prefers to renew the contract with last season's main players, but before making this decision, Inter Milan must first renew the contract with Gao Xiaodong. If Gao Xiaodong wants to transfer, Inter Milan's signings must be reconsidered. After all, Gao Xiaodong's liquidated damages are too low, and the initiative is not in Inter Milan's hands. If Gao Xiaodong is poached at the last moment of the transfer, Inter Milan will complain every day and the earth will not work.

Sneijder's brilliance in the World Cup gave Inter Milan more confidence. Before Inter Milan rushed to the United States for training, Branca issued an ultimatum to Gao Xiaodong's agent Mendes, demanding that Gao Xiaodong must be released in 8 Renewal completed before month.

When Mendes received Blanca's call, he was in Manchester negotiating with Ferguson about the contract extensions of Anderson and Nani.

At the same time, I will recommend a new player to Sir Alex.

The negotiations did not go smoothly. Except for one thing, Nani performed well last season and had no problem with a salary increase and contract renewal. However, Anderson was seriously injured in February, and Ferguson hoped to wait until he recovered to see his condition before renewing the contract.

As for the Portuguese Super League newcomer Bebe recommended by Mendes, Ferguson has never even watched his game. Naturally, he will not accept such a player into the world's top team Manchester United based on a video tape.

Mendes actually understands that Ferguson is still angry about what happened last season, but after Gao Xiaodong refused to transfer to Real Madrid, Mendes has considered sending Gao Xiaodong to Manchester United or Chelsea. The main reason why the Premier League is flourishing is that it has established a good relationship with these two giants. Last time, Mourinho had no choice but to offend Ferguson for his golden partner. This time it is time to mend the relationship.

After answering Blanca's call, Mendes said to Ferguson with a smile on his face: "Sire Sir Alex, maybe Xiaodong will decide where to go next season before August."

Ferguson was originally very impatient while negotiating with Mendes, but upon hearing this, he perked up and sat up straight, "Mr. Mendes, please tell us in detail."

Mendes smiled and said: "Inter Milan is forcing Gao Xiaodong to make a decision before August. Time is running out."

Ferguson asked nervously: "What is Gao thinking now?"

Mendes said: "He is still undecided. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Chelsea and Manchester City are all possibilities, and he does not rule out staying at Inter Milan."

Ferguson said unhappily: "Mr. Mendes, stop using these diplomatic rhetoric. You think I don't know that Real Madrid is ready to give up Xiao Donggao."

Mendes laughed and said: "There are four companies competing for it together. Manchester United's conditions are not for leasing."

Ferguson had been in football for decades, but he still didn’t know what Mendes meant, so he said cheerfully: "Jorge, we have not known each other for a day or two. You have sent many people to Manchester United. I am Ferguson." I'm sorry to you, as long as you help me deal with Xiao Donggao, as long as it's within my ability, I will definitely help you deal with it."

This is what Mendes wanted. He smiled and said: "Sir Alex is serious. There is no need for such a transaction between us. The main thing is to consider the needs of Manchester United and the development of the players."

Ferguson said: "Manchester United urgently needs an attacking midfielder. Scholes is old and neither Rooney nor Anderson can replace him. Xiao Donggao is the most suitable candidate. Apart from Ronaldo, he is the first one that I feel I must buy. That kind of player, and Manchester United's commercial development efforts are definitely much better than Inter Milan, and they can also give Xiao Donggao the best environment for growth. This is the best of both worlds."

Mendes put away his smile and said seriously: "Sir Sir Alex, the high salary can no longer satisfy Xiaodong. He hopes to gain the core position of the team. He wants to compete with Kaka, Messi and Ronaldo for the Ballon d'Or. Manchester United can satisfy him." ?"

Ferguson pondered for a moment and said: "Yes."

Mendes said: "What if Rooney doesn't leave."

Ferguson said firmly: "Even if Rooney doesn't leave, I will let him assist Xiao Donggao, just like he assisted Ronaldo back then."

Upon hearing this, Mendes said: "Okay, I don't expect the annual salary to be compared with Manchester City, but it can't be less than what Inter Milan gives."

Ferguson said: "This is assured, it is definitely more than Inter Milan. By the way, Mr. Glazer hopes to get all the image rights of Xiao Donggao."

When Mendes heard this, he refused and said: "This is absolutely impossible. In Inter Milan, you only have half of the image rights. Behind Xiaodong is the vast Chinese market."

Ferguson didn't want to have long nights and dreams, and said: "We will discuss the image rights slowly later. Jorge, you must help me get this matter done. Don't look at me getting old. Even if I retire, I can do seven jobs for whoever becomes the Manchester United coach next." Split master."

Mendes smiled and said: "Sir Sir Alex, among the teams I have worked with, you and Chairman Da Costa are the ones I respect and trust the most. How can I help others if I don't help you? Don't worry, I have at least 70% Convince Xiaodong with confidence."

Ferguson was overjoyed and said: "Actually, Xiao Donggao is also interested in Manchester United. With your help, I think things will definitely work out. "

Mendes said: "Okay, without further ado, I will go to Milan to discuss it with Xiaodong."

Although Mendes no longer mentioned the signing of Anderson and the players he had just recommended, Ferguson knew that if he did not mention it, the 70% certainty would be reduced to less than 50%.

"Well, Jorge, don't run away in a hurry. What is the name of the new guy you just mentioned? I think he is very tall. Manchester United needs a high center forward."

Mendes then seemed to remember and said: "My name is Beibei. He is 20 years old. He used to be in Aladomar Star. He is 1.9 meters tall and has good skills and speed. He was bought by Guimarães in the Portuguese Super League. He is definitely For potential newcomers like Nani and Anderson, Manchester United's original assistant coach Queiroz is ready to call him into the national team. 9 million euros is definitely a reasonable price. Once he plays in Guimarães, it will probably cost 30 million to start. "

Ferguson was eager for Mendes to help him deal with Gao Xiaodong. He didn't care whether Mendes said it was true or not, and immediately agreed: "Okay, let him come with Xiaodong Gao."

Mendes was overjoyed, but looked very emotional and said: "Sir Alex is very resolute in his work. Wenger has always been known to be good at digging out little monsters, but he is still incomparable to Ni. It is reasonable for him to be suppressed by you for so many years. "

Ferguson felt comfortable even though he had to flatter him a lot, and said: "If you continue to break up, you will be disturbed. Wenger is just too hesitant."

Mendes said: "Okay, Sir Alex, there are only a few days until August, I will go to Milan right now."

Ferguson said: "Okay, I won't keep you, everything goes well."

"Okay, thank you, Sir. Goodbye."

Mendes secured Anderson's contract extension and Bebe's transfer, repaired his relationship with Ferguson, and left Manchester with satisfaction.
