Chapter 1622 Steal
If you want to mark a core for the European summer transfer market in 2019, it is undoubtedly Ajax.
This team, which has just won the Champions League and at the same time won the Triple Crown with a complete victory record in the Eredivisie, has attracted the attention of the entire European football world, and Ajax has not shown signs of forcing players to stay. As long as they are willing to pay, as long as they are not on the team's retention list, they can leave the team.
With the transfer fees of Neres and Ndombele both exceeding 100 million, even Tagliafico, a 27-year-old left back, has set a sky-high price of 60 million euros. How crazy is the market.
Nicolas Pepe from Lille to Paris Saint-Germain for up to 80 million euros, Maguire from Leicester to Manchester United for up to 87 million euros, Lucas Ayer Nandes transferred from Atletico Madrid to Bayern Munich, worth as much as 80 million euros, and Atletico Madrid midfielder Rodri transferred to Manchester City, worth 70 million euros...
An astonishing amount of transfers is constantly being reported from the European football world, constantly refreshing the transfer expectations of the entire European football world, and the battle for stars among all the rich teams has reached a fever pitch.
Especially many first-line players like Griezmann, Frankie de Jong, De Ligt and so on have not yet successfully negotiated, which makes everyone have to wonder how high it will be if these players transfer successfully. price?
In the outside world, Real Madrid, which is the most hopeful to win Frenkie de Jong and De Ligt, has not heard the news for a long time. Barcelona is focusing more on Griezmann's transfer. There were serious differences in the competition, and there was a lot of trouble.
Many teams, including Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain, and Juventus, have stepped in to transfer Ajax's two major stars, making the already suspenseful transfer even more suspicious.
...
When there was a lot of discussion from the outside world, Real Madrid quietly completed multiple transfer transactions.
Veteran Keylor Navas was sold to Paris Saint-Germain by Real Madrid for 15 million euros. At the same time, Real Madrid loaned Areola from Ligue 1 Banba to serve as the team's backup goalkeeper.
In addition to the goalkeeper entering and exiting, Real Madrid also showed their efficiency. At a high price of 48 million euros, they introduced left back Ferland Mendy from Ligue 1 Lyon. A rookie left guard.
Aspen reported that the club finally decided to sign the player after Yang Yang's approval.
In addition to Ferland Mendy and Areola, Real Madrid also signed Rodrigo from Santos for 45 million euros. This deal was finalized last year. Like Vinicius, Rodrigo Ge also joined Real Madrid after he turned eighteen.
In addition, two veteran central defenders Vermaelen and Harvey Martinez have left the team on free transfers.
The official website of Real Madrid expresses its gratitude to the two veterans for their contributions and hopes that they can continue to shine in the new team. At the same time, it also expresses that Real Madrid will always be their home and welcome them back at any time.
Many media have said that the gift of Vermaelen and Harvey Martinez to leave the team is that Real Madrid is trying to make room for two central defender candidates, Dericht and Militao, the two European footballers. The hottest central defender in the world is what Real Madrid wants most, the central defender combination in the next ten years.
But there is no specific movement from Real Madrid, and Ajax has already made an early move.
…………
…………
With five million euros, Gabriel Martinelli was introduced from Ituano, Brazil. The Brazilian international who had just turned 18 officially transferred to Ajax in the Eredivisie.
The outside world has speculated that this is a supplementary signing by Ajax to make up for the transfer of Neres.
In addition, Ajax quickly announced that it would introduce Brazilian central defender Diego Carlos from Ligue 1 Nantes at a high price of 11 million euros. Van Gaal praised this central defender for Ajax. The back line brings stability.
Not only that, Ajax also signed the 21-year-old central defender Edson Alvarez from the Mexican American Club in Mexico at a high price of 10 million euros. And midfield and other positions, the characteristics are very comprehensive.
In addition, Ajax also signed the 21-year-old central defender Lisandro Martinez from the Argentine domestic club defender for 6 million euros. This player is also very comprehensive and can be competent as a central defender, midfielder and midfielder. , and multiple positions such as left back, he is also a left-footed player with excellent passing ability.
Ajax also signed the 18-year-old young central defender Pavlovic from the Belgrade Partizan in Serbia. He was praised by Serbia as the new Nemanja Vidic. million euros.
For a while, the entire European football world was surprised, and the Netherlands was even more shocked.
Ajax has already shown its attitude by continuously signing the central defender at a high price of more than 10 million euros. The transfer of De Ligt and Militao is a foregone conclusion. So which team will these two players transfer to? Team?
But what is more important is the boldness shown by Ajax. This is different from the past when one euro was split in half. Ajax's signings this summer are full of boldness, which makes people feel a rich posture .
So much so that the domestic media and fans in the Netherlands were shocked, thinking that no one can stop Ajax in the new season.
Martinelli, Diego Carlos, Claudio Bravo, Owen Wendal, Pavlovic, Lisandro Martinez and Alvarez, Ajax transfer this summer Nearly 40 million euros have been spent on the market, which is not counted as an extra introduction, but Angelino, who is worth as much as 16 million euros.
The strength of Ajax's signings has never been seen in the past ten years. Many people even believe that Ajax this summer has surpassed the era of Van Basten who gambled heavily. The difference in the times is that today's Ajax is more about the introduction of the defense, which is also related to the team's relatively weak defense.
At least in the midfield, Ajax is full of talents. In addition to Martinelli, Harvey Simmons from the La Masia youth training camp will enter the first team this season, as well as Xavi Simmons who will expire in the winter break. At the age of eight, he joined Reinier of Ajax.
All this makes Ajax's midfielder not short of people, but the competition is very fierce.
But this time, Ajax is determined to make up the defense in one go.
...
Yang Yang did not participate in the specific transfer operation.
Whether it was Ajax or Real Madrid, he was not involved.
After playing the Champions League final, he took his family back home and enjoyed a rare vacation comfortably.
During this time in China, he took his wife and children to travel around the mountains and rivers, traveled all over the motherland, and visited the Hope Primary School that he built over the years. The rest of the time he hid in the villa complex next to the Summer Palace, comfortably Waiting for news from Europe.
On the last day of June, the belated Wei Zheng finally arrived!
…………
…………
"This transfer market is absolutely crazy!"
At the villa next to the Summer Palace, this was the first sentence Wei Zheng said when he saw Yang Yang. He was completely shocked.
"Before, we were surprised when Paris Saint-Germain stepped in and signed Nicolas Pepe for 80 million euros, right? Now, Atletico Madrid have paid 126 million euros. , signed Felix from Benfica at the age of 19, it's unbelievable!"
Yang Yang leisurely made tea to treat his cousin-in-law. He was surprised when he first heard the news, but soon he was relieved.
Atletico Madrid is now starting to grab people, wanting to make up for Griezmann's transfer and leaving the team. Before failing to grab Neres from Arsenal and others, Simeone has already felt the threat, so he started panic signings.
Can the nineteen-year-old Felix compare to Sancho?
Yang Yang doesn't think so, because Sancho is already the main player of the Champions League champion team. He is a star who has won the Champions League and proved his strength, but Felix obviously has not.
Of course, for his title of Cristiano Ronaldo II, 126 million euros is not too expensive, provided that he can realize his talent potential.
"Atletico Madrid has been relatively stable in buying people in recent years. I believe Felix can show it in Atletico Madrid."
Yang Yang smiled wryly, because there was no way to do it.
Atletico Madrid wants to sell Griezmann for 120 million euros and buy Felix for an additional 6 million euros. This deal is considered a loss for the Sheets, because Griezmann is already very mature.
But the problem is that Griezmann is determined to leave, and Barcelona really want it, and Atletico Madrid can't keep it at all.
Robbing people, the sheet army is not at the same level as the rich and powerful Premier League and European giants.
Therefore, Atletico Madrid's players were poached by Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Barcelona, and they couldn't keep them at all.
Even for a young player of Felix's level, Atletico Madrid would have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to poach him.
Just imagine, it is so difficult for the upper reaches of the four major leagues and Atletico Madrid to play their bravery in the Champions League. If Ajax did not have the Champions League in their hands, it would be even more painful to grab people.
So this time, Van Gaal and Van der Sar set out to lay a solid foundation for Ajax in the next few years, introduce a group of outstanding young rookies, and invest in the future.
For this reason, Ajax paid a transfer fee of nearly 40 million euros, which has never been seen in the past few decades, especially spending more than 10 million euros to introduce two central defenders, which is extremely rare , even astonishing.
As in the case of Atletico Madrid, Ajax are also investing in the future.
As long as this group of players can realize their talents, then Ajax's money will be worth it.
Of course, it is risky to bet on young players. The only thing Ajax can do is to inspect the players as much as possible. This is Yang Yang’s vision of Ajax’s technical team, Van Gaal, and the scouting team. Ability, still have confidence.
The only thing he cares about is the negotiation with Real Madrid.
