Chapter 238 The White Turban Is Here!

At noon on August 1, Central European Time, Udinese officially announced that it is considering accepting Barcelona's offer!

A piece of blockbuster news suddenly detonated the European transfer market and caused an uproar in the media field around the world.

It was as if a stone suddenly fell on a calm lake, causing ripples. The entire European transfer market, media and fans around the world are looking forward to further news from Udinese.

Udinese officially announced that it is considering Barcelona's offer, which undoubtedly means that the two parties have reached a key consensus on the transfer fee. This undoubtedly means that this two-month transfer soap opera has finally begun to come to an end. .

Udinese's official website only conveyed this news to all fans, but the specific details were not disclosed. But where in the world is there a wall that is airtight?

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Barcelona finally decided to increase Bruno’s transfer fee to 135 million euros after several negotiations.

This has far exceeded the 101 million euros that Bale paid for moving to Real Madrid two years ago!

It can be said that this is the first truly billion-euro transfer in the history of football.

The original price of 101 million euros for Bell's transfer to Real Madrid was more symbolic.

Faced with such an astonishing price, it is impossible for Udinese to refuse.

The Pozzo family knows that Udinese has become an obstacle to Bruno's progress. The fate between the two parties has come to an end. Even if they reluctantly keep Bruno for another season, it will not make much sense.

In this case, it is better to cash out Bruno now while Barcelona offers such a sky-high price.

As a result, Udinese officials immediately stated that they were considering accepting Barcelona's offer.

Once the news spread, it immediately triggered a huge response in European football.

………………

In Madrid, Florentino held an emergency meeting. Everyone, including the team's new head coach Benitez and Real Madrid executives, attended.

"I believe everyone has seen the news early this morning."

Florentino didn't look as calm as before today, and there was a bit more urgency in his brows. Obviously some things and changes now were beyond his expectation and caught him off guard.

Everyone present was the management of Real Madrid, so it was natural to understand why Florentino felt nervous.

"Things are a bit unexpected. Barcelona is very determined. According to the reliable information I received, Bartomeu is very optimistic about Bruno. It is said that he flew to Udine in person to convince him to join Barcelona."

"Bruno agreed?" Benitez asked nervously.

After Benitez took over Real Madrid's coaching job in June, his first request was that Real Madrid bring Bruno to the Bernabeu this summer.

As the former head coach of Naples, Benitez has dealt with Bruno many times and is very aware of the abilities of this talented Portuguese midfielder.

In a small team like Udinese, Bruno can lead the team to win Serie A, Europa League and Champions League. If he comes to Real Madrid, Benitez is confident to lead the Galacticos to win everything!

Florentino did not answer, but Real Castilla coach Zidane shook his head and said: "No one knows what they said, but the only thing that is certain is that if Bartomeu comes forward, Bruno will definitely be given the chance." A big promise was made.”

Although Zidane is only the head coach of Real Madrid's second team, his status in the team is extraordinary, and his relationship with Florentino is also very close.

………………

When everyone heard this, everyone frowned and looked very worried.

After experiencing all four losses last season, Real Madrid is once again facing reconstruction, and Bruno is undoubtedly Florentino's primary target.

If Bruno moves to Barcelona now, it will be a heavy blow to Real Madrid.

Messi and Ronaldo are undoubtedly the two best players in today's football.

Behind them, many top stars including Bale, Neymar, Hazard, and Bruno are all strong contenders for the third man in world football.

However, judging from the performance of these players in recent years, only Bruno is truly close to Messi and Ronaldo.

Even in the past 2014-2015 season, Bruno's performance has reached the level of Messi and Ronaldo!

Barcelona has found Messi's successor, and that is Neymar; but in Real Madrid, they have not yet found Cristiano Ronaldo's successor.

Bell has been with the team for two years, and although his performance is pretty good, everyone knows that the Welsh winger cannot reach the heights of Ronaldo.

What worries Real Madrid's management even more is that Ronaldo is already over 30 years old. According to normal football rules, the Portuguese is gradually approaching the twilight of his career.

The reorganization of Galaxy Battleship is not only looking for a strong offensive organization core, but also looking for the real successor of Ronaldo.

Therefore, no matter from which perspective, Bruno is the superstar that best fits Florentino's positioning, and is also a key pillar in the reconstruction of Real Madrid's Galacticos.

In fact, Barcelona may know this, so they try their best to poach Bruno.

The transfer itself is a war.

………………

"The current situation is that Udinese is already interested. Barcelona's transfer is more than half successful. If Bruno nods again, then the transfer will be completed!" Zidane said again. He is also a very successful professional player and knows the entire transfer process and procedures very well.

Florentino frowned, his eyes were like lightning, and he secretly gritted his teeth and said: "We must destroy this transfer!"

After hearing this, everyone nodded unanimously.

Butragueno said: "But how?"

Everyone looked at Florentino. The leader who controlled the largest construction group in Europe and even the world's top must make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late.

For a superstar like Bruno, once he moves to Barcelona, ​​the possibility of moving to Real Madrid is almost zero.

Benitez, who had never spoken, said: "More money!"

Benitez's words made everyone present blush.

For player transfers, adding money is indeed a very effective method. But the problem is that now that Barcelona has raised Bruno's price to a terrifying height, is it worth it for Real Madrid to continue to increase the money?

………………

Florentino shook his head and said: "I learned about some situations through Jorge. Bruno has obviously never considered Real Madrid."

"He doesn't like Real Madrid?" Benitez asked strangely.

Florentino said: "Probably not. Judging from what I know about Jorge, he is a very thoughtful and insightful person. He takes every step very steadily. He does not want to come to Real Madrid , probably because he doesn’t want to be inferior to others.”

Everyone nodded.

"Bruno going to Barcelona is definitely not a good choice." Zidane shook his head.

Those present are either senior football practitioners, very successful businessmen, or industry elites. They can naturally understand the meaning of Zidane's words. Bruno should be a player who aims to become the number one player in the world. How? Maybe to a team with other superstars?

What's more, Bruno is an outsider and Messi is a local. No matter how you look at it, Bruno suffers.

Of course, Bruno is in the limelight right now. Even if he does go to Barcelona, ​​no one knows what will happen in the future.

It’s just that if there is a choice, no smart person will choose to go to Barcelona.

Florentino muttered: "Cristiano will be thirty-one soon..."

No one spoke when they heard the words, and the conference room fell into silence for a while.

………………

Just as Real Madrid's senior executives were planning something, Bruno, who had returned to Udine to join the team's pre-season training, welcomed a group of mysterious guests to his home in the suburbs of Udine.

Looking at the white turban in front of him, Bruno was very surprised, but he still greeted politely: "Jassim, welcome to Udine!"

"Excuse me, please don't mind Bruno!" Prince Jassim gave Bruno an Arab greeting salute and then said.

As soon as they met, they exchanged polite greetings, and everyone sat down politely with Bruno's greeting.

Prince Jassim is not the kind of person who likes to beat around the bush, so he asked about Bruno's transfer to Barcelona very straightforwardly, mainly because he was concerned about the progress of the transfer.

Mendes came forward on Bruno's behalf and stated that the transfer was only halfway through. Udinese had not yet confirmed its acceptance of Barcelona's offer, and Bruno had not had much substantive contact with Barcelona, ​​let alone any discussion. Personal treatment.

This obviously relieved Jassim and his team, because they were worried that Bruno and Barcelona had reached an agreement privately.

"Frankly speaking, for a superstar like you, whether it is the competitive value on the court or the commercial value off the court, it is far from being measured by money. I have always believed that under Udi Ness, your value is far undervalued, and even if you move to Barcelona, ​​they will definitely not be able to fully realize your value.”

Jassim put a high hat on Bruno as soon as he came up, but he did not start with feelings or feelings, but directly told Bruno that in this world, there is only one team. Can fully tap out all his potential value and let him shine as much as he wants.

That is the Red Devils Manchester United he is about to acquire.

In order to make his words more convincing, Jassim also explained to Bruno in detail his plan to acquire Manchester United, as well as his thoughts and ideas after the acquisition was successful, including the transfer market. , training center, stadium and other aspects to make Manchester United the most competitive club in the world again.

According to his original words: "Aiming to bring the Manchester United club back to its glory on and off the field."
