Seven Hundred and Fifty Second Downgrade Professional Households
Latest website: Morley, South West, Leeds.
Jonathan Howson sat at home leafing through the freshly-baked Yorkshire Post.
This is a newspaper that has been established for more than 250 years. It targets the Times and has extraordinary influence in Yorkshire. It has 24 pages a day, and the sports section has two pages exclusively.
Recently, the news of Leeds United has become the protagonist of the sports section of the Yorkshire Post.
For Leeds United's summer transfer signings, the Yorkshire Post's comments are very divided.
There is a school of thought that Leeds United’s signings seem to be low-end, but the investment is very small. As long as one of the imported players can stand out, the overall profit will be big. This cost-effective method is very in line with the current situation of Leeds United.
But there is also a school of thought that Leeds United lacks ambition and ambition. It is completely different from the big pie drawn in the previous fan meeting. Now Leeds United simply does not have enough financial resources to introduce high-level stars.
Not to mention anything else, the transfer fee did not exceed seven figures, how strong can these players be?
No, the news broke out again today.
Leeds United's official website and Twitter announced at the same time that a 19-year-old Egyptian teenager, Mohamed Salah, was introduced from an Egyptian team called Mokaulun at a price of 200,000 euros.
This kid played for Mo Kaolun at the age of seventeen. In the first season, he played five times and assisted once. Last season, which is the second season, he played 24 times, scored five goals and assisted twice.
This report card seems to be not bad, but what level is the Egyptian Super League?
What's even more funny is that the all-pervasive media soon dug up the news.
Do you know why Leeds United can successfully introduce Salah?
Because Mo Kaulun was relegated in the Egyptian Super League.
Yes, Leeds United picked up another leak from a relegated team, which is simply out of the question.
If you think that Leeds United will stop here, it proves that it is still too young.
Leeds United also announced that they had introduced a player named Marcelo Brozovic from the Zagreb Croatian Club in Croatia at a price of 300,000 euros.
This is also the youth training and main force of the Croatians,
But the problem is that the Croatian ranked 16th in the Croatian Super League last season, that is, at the bottom of the ranking, and was still eight points behind the second-to-last, and was honorably relegated.
Yes, you read that right, Leeds United missed out on the relegated team again.
From England to Spain to Italy to Egypt to Croatia...
Good guy, this is going to circle the continents of Europe and Africa!
The Yorkshire Post commented embarrassingly: "Should we praise Leeds United's intelligence work in place? Or praise them for being stingy?"
This is indeed a very embarrassing thing.
If you say that Leeds United's new team is incapable, it doesn't look like it, at least they can always catch the relegated team and pick up the bottom.
But if you have the ability, look at these people introduced, do they look like talents?
Not to mention outsiders, even Jonathan Howson, the quasi-captain of Leeds United, felt a little embarrassed.
The relegated team from the English Championship picked up Maguire, who is also a local player, and then went to pick up the leak from the relegated team from the Second Division, so it is also Costa Rica's national gate.
Good guy, don't you think it's outrageous to go to Egypt and Croatia to pick up the leaks of other relegated teams?
But that's nothing.
The Yorkshire Post also said that Leeds United selected a 19-year-old player named Sadio Mane from among many young Senegalese players at a generation elite training camp in Dakar, the capital of Senegal.
Mane's resume is similar to that of Jorginho introduced from Verona. They were all trained in this way similar to the youth training school, so their worth is very cheap.
The funds for introducing Mane are even negligible.
But unlike Jorginho who has at least played in Italy, Mane only received formal youth training at the age of fifteen, and later trained in the generation elite training camp for four years, and is now selected by Leeds United.
Good guy, at least he had to give money to pick up the leak before, dare not give money this time, free transfer, awesome!
Woodgate, Vardy, Jorginho, Navas, Maguire, Brozovic, Mane, Salah, Icardi, Bellerin...
The Yorkshire Post made this list. A lot of people were brought in, but how much did it cost?
1.87 million!
It's off the charts, isn't it?
On average, a player is less than two hundred thousand euros.
What's even more funny is that an old superstar who has been scrapped for many years, a transfer student who has been in the youth training for four years, two newly promoted players from low-level leagues, and five relegated teams who missed out. Lelin was considered high-quality, but he was only sixteen years old.
Even the Yorkshire Post couldn't help sending out soul torture.
"Leeds United really intend to hit the Premier League with this lineup?"
...
Putting down the Yorkshire Post in his hand, Jonathan Howson took out his mobile phone and searched for some news.
It was discovered that not only the Yorkshire Post, but even the media in the UK that paid close attention to Leeds United are now confused. Some people even said that Leeds United is a professional household for relegation.
why?
Cheap chant!
But this also brings up another question, that is, what hope is there for such a team?
According to the previous predictions of Jonathan Howson and everyone else, the most important thing Leeds United should do is to borrow a group of teams from the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A with the help of Gaoshen's relationship. Excellent young player, return to the Premier League as soon as possible.
But in the end, Leeds United did not do this, but went all over the world to find leaks.
It's outrageous!
Those relegated teams or low-level promotions, what good players do they have?
Relying on these, you want to go to the Premier League?
Jonathan Howson shook his head with a wry smile, turned on the phone again, and found the manager's phone number.
Recently, he just changed an agent, Paul Stretford, who is well-known in British football.
This agent is not only the agent of Rooney, but also the agent of teammate Schmeichel Jr. He has a very extensive network of contacts. Before, the condition for offering Leeds United a weekly salary of 25,000 pounds was that Stray Ford's advice to him.
"Hey, Paul, it's me, how is your progress?" Jonathan Howson asked with concern.
He is currently empowering an agent to handle his own transfer matters, such as approaching Premier League teams.
"I've talked to a lot of teams and they're all very interested in you, but the problem now is that Leeds United don't want to talk at all. Norwich, Queens Park Rangers and Aston Villa in the Premier League have successively Bids were made and rejected without hesitation."
Jonathan Howson frowned when he heard this.
He wants to go to the Premier League and really wants to.
If he only had this kind of thought before, then now, he is becoming extremely eager.
Because the media said, Gao Shen concluded that he has the talent to become the second Lampard!
He has always felt that he is a different player, and now, Gao Shen's words confirm this.
Therefore, even a big-name agent like Paul Stretford took the initiative to come to cooperate with him.
He doesn't want to be in Leeds United, what a waste of time in the Championship!
He should go to the Premier League, go to a broader stage, prove his strength, get more attention, participate in the London Olympics next year, and then enter the national team.
This is the way he should go!
Instead of staying in Leeds United, wasting precious time with a group of scumbags picked up from relegated teams!
"Mike Rigg of Queens Park Rangers told me that they offered a high price of 7 million pounds, but Leeds still rejected it very quickly. Now they are all starting to hesitate."
"Why?" Jonathan Howson panicked.
Wouldn't it be a retreat, you don't want it?
"You are worth about two million pounds now, and if you go up to seven million pounds, this is already a very high transfer fee in the British Championship, but Leeds United still refuses to sell, so there are only two possibilities, one is Waiting for more, stronger buyers to come in, the other is that they really don’t want to sell.”
Needless to say, the former just wants to sell at a higher price.
And the latter proves that Leeds United really don't want to sell the treasure.
This is actually very normal, just like when Manchester United sold Ronaldo, or Manchester United finally renewed Rooney, whether to sell or not, is actually in between. When the price is given, the player wants to leave, and he has to sell it.
"Then what should I do now?" Jonathan Howson was a little anxious, "Is there anything I can do?"
"It's more troublesome now. The initiative is in the hands of Leeds United, but if you really want to leave, you can submit a written transfer application and publicly express your desire to leave the team to put pressure on the club. At the same time, I can contact a few A team like Queens Park Rangers or Norwich."
"These two newly-promoted horses are very ambitious, and I believe that they are unwilling to delay the transfer. If the teams in the middle and upper reaches of the Premier League really intervene, they will get nothing."
As the number one agent in the Premier League, Stretford is very aware of the transfer mode.
Just a few million euros, if you can really buy the future Lampard II, for those teams in the middle and upper reaches of the Premier League, it is really not much money, they will be very happy to intervene.
Now there have been rumors outside that Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Chelsea are all paying attention to Jonathan Howson. Once these teams make a move, there is really nothing to be promoted.
"What do you think?" Jonathan Howson asked.
"At your current age, it is very difficult to get the main force if you go to an upstream team. If you want me to say, it is better to go to a downstream team first, play in the Premier League first, and show a better performance. Next year is the London Olympics, and you will participate If you show better performance in the end, I can help you operate and strive to reach another level."
"You are only twenty-two years old, and you still have time. It would be better if you were more stable."
After hearing this, Jonathan Howson also felt that this route was safer.
"Okay, I'll write a written transfer application right away, and you can arrange media interviews for me."
"Okay, I will also call Mike Rigg immediately to see if Queens Park Rangers can increase the price and try to negotiate a transfer as soon as possible."
After hanging up on Straftford, Jonathan Howson cast a firm look in his eyes.
He must go to the Premier League!
