amazing coach

The warm and quiet life passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was time to return to Europe. Jiang Mu's parents couldn't bear to see their son leave and did not go to the airport. Zhao Guangming drove his father's car with Chen Jing and Feng Ke.

He sent Jiang Mu to the airport. Zhao Guangming was the assistant coach of the youth team and there was no need to return to the Netherlands so early.

The plane took off at 11:40. In the waiting hall, Zhao Guangming patted Jiang Mu on the shoulder and said, "You go ahead. I'll enjoy a few days at home, and then I'll go accompany you." []

After Chen Jing fell in love, she became much more generous, "Waiting for your glorious return."

Jiang Mu said with great enthusiasm: "I will definitely be a champion coach when I come back."

"It doesn't matter whether you win the championship or not. Live happily in the Netherlands and pay attention to your health."

Feng Ke was dressed very plainly today, wearing a white slim down jacket and a silver-gray scarf. His snow-white face was blown red by the warm air from the air conditioner.

Zhao Guangming chuckled and said to Chen Jing: "Let's see what they told us. Let's hide away for a while and let them whisper."

"I want to whisper but I'm afraid of you."

Feng Ke snorted and heard the shout of flight kl898 boarding coming from the lobby. He kissed Jiang Mu on the face and said loudly: "Have a good trip." After saying that, he turned around and ran out of the terminal hall.

Jiang Mu felt a little stupid as he touched his face.

Zhao Guangming chuckled and said, "Mu Mu, let's go and reminisce on the plane. Don't be too late."

Jiang Mu shook his head, clasped his fists at Zhao Guangming and Chen Jing, and said, "I'm leaving, don't worry about it." After saying that, he turned around and walked into the crowd of people boarding the plane.

Eleven hours later, flight kl898 landed at Amsterdam International Airport. Schlinja drove Jiang Mu to Alkmaar in a red Ferrari sports car.

Seeing that the house he rented had been tidied up, with a few pots of flowers on the window sill, Jiang Mu was surprised and said, "Did you do it?"

Sihelinjia smiled slightly and said: "I cleaned it up with the hourly worker."

Jiang Mu breathed a sigh of relief. This beauty's favor was not easy to enjoy. "How is the transfer going?"

Sikhlindya said angrily: "We just talked about the transfer when we got home, so we can't say anything else."

Jiang Mu chuckled, rubbed Sihelinjia's golden hair, and said, "Aren't I worried? Otherwise, I wouldn't have come so early."

Schlinjia shook his head and said: "You are such a workaholic. Lucio has basically taken care of it. The transfer situation in Europe is not very good. We originally thought that Ismail was in the Crystal Palace of the English League. We bought him

It shouldn't be difficult. After all, we are a championship team in the Eredivisie. It is almost certain that we will participate in the Champions League next year. But now the Lens team in Ligue 1 wants him very much. Lens is the defending champion of Ligue 1, and it is Eredivisie.

Mel's hometown team is obviously far more attractive than us. Although our current offer is higher than Lens and the annual salary given to Ismael is also higher, this French guy with a goatee has always had a vague attitude."

Jiang Mu smiled because Ismail had a goatee and looked like an old player even though he was only 24 years old.

"What's the price quoted by Lens and us?"

"Lance's offer is US$1.5 million, and ours is US$1.8 million. Lance's annual salary is only US$300,000, and ours is US$500,000."

Jiang Mu frowned. The price gap was not small. It seemed that Ismail had a big appetite.

"Where's Van Buyten?"

Schlinja said helplessly: "Van Buyten's transfer is even more annoying. Charleroi is not a strong team in Belgium, and they have no intention of retaining an excellent central defender like Van Buyten. As long as you play

The money is right, but Van Buyten has privately initialed an agreement with Standard Liege. He will transfer to Standard Liege at the end of this season. If we want to buy Van Buyten, we have to pay Standard Liege a break-up fee.

fee."

Jiang Mu shrugged and shook his head, "This is too coincidental. It seems that the timing of our move is a bit wrong. How much does it cost to buy Van Buyten?"

"We quoted a price of 1.5 million US dollars, and Charleroi said it could be negotiated, but Standard Liege would also have to pay a liquidated damages of 500,000 US dollars," Schlinga said.

"That's pretty much it."

"Yeah, which one do you think we should focus on now? It's too difficult to win two together. A team like ours can't afford an excellent backup central defender." Schlinjia said.

"Focus on attacking Ismail. Van Buyten can be regarded as a substitute. If we really can't win, let's talk about Van Buyten."

Van Buyten is also an excellent central defender, with a height of nearly two meters and a high-altitude barrier on the back line. Although the defense is not so reassuring, he is low-key and hard-working and has a strong offensive ability. The two million is totally worth it.

, but now Alkmaar is sure to be able to take down Lucio. With two central defenders who both like assists together, Jiang Mu can imagine the terrifying scene of them attacking at the same time and leaving only two midfielders in the defense. Now Alkmaar

Marr has strong offensive power in the frontcourt and does not need such a strong defender in the back.

But Schlinja got it wrong and said: "Ismail is a little older, and his partnership with Lucio is more stable."

Jiang Mu nodded and said, "How about you arrange a time for us to have a meal with them and I'll have a chat with them. If it doesn't work, just spend money. Lance will definitely not be willing to pay too much."

Si Helinjia said: "Okay, you can rest for a day and then talk about it tomorrow."

Jiang Mu nodded and said, "That's right, the transfer won't be settled in a moment. Don't show impatience, so that the other party will have more confidence in negotiating with us."

Sihelinjia leaned on Jiang Mu's chest and said: "It's just like what my father said, if the stadium budget didn't require too much money, I would have spent money on it and forced Lens to give up."

Jiang Mu put his arms around Shelinjia's waist and sat down on the sofa, saying: "It's not good to throw money at it. When the transfer happens later, they will ask for a sky-high price. This is smashing the market, and we are going to offend others.

"

Sihelinjia smiled and said, "You are only one year older than me. Why are you as cunning as my father?"

"Men live more tiring lives and bear greater responsibilities. We use it as two years for the same one year. According to your actual age, you should call me uncle." Jiang Mu joked with a smile.

"Take advantage of me and beat you to death."

When Sihelinjia heard Jiang Mu ask her to call her uncle, she sat on Jiang Mu and beat Jiang Mu on the chest.

"Stop fighting. If I kill you, you will have to find another coach." Jiang Mu grabbed Schlinja's fists and said, "Let's go get something to eat. The airplane food is too unpalatable."

"Okay, let's go to Linhaiwan to have afternoon tea and some muffins first, and then go to the Holiday Inn to eat raw herring and pea soup." Silinja seemed to have already made plans.

"Okay, it's up to you." Jiang Mu doesn't pay much attention to Western food.

There are no games during the winter break, and there is generally no blockbuster transfer news, so the media has no choice but to hype up some tidbits to attract fans' attention.

No one knew about Jiang Mu before he came to the Netherlands, but as a famous figure in the Eredivisie, reporters immediately got the news after he came to the Netherlands. The next day, major newspapers in the Netherlands appeared in the news about the relationship between Jiang Mu and Schlinja.

In the photos of having afternoon tea by the bay, many reporters confirmed that Jiang Mu came to Europe in advance to get engaged to Schlinja, and that both parents had already approved the marriage.

But Jiang Mu immediately broke the rumors the next day. He received French center back Ismail, who is now playing for Crystal Palace, at the Sea Palace, and the two sides had a two-hour conversation.

On the third day, Jiang Mu met with Belgian central defender Van Buyten again at the Hilton Hotel. Reporters reported that AZ Alkmaar is now pursuing this strong central defender. Jiang Mu returned to the Netherlands to find a defender in the transfer market.

On the fourth day, Jiang Mu announced at a press conference that they had completed the first transfer of the winter break. Brazilian international center back Lucio joined Alkmaar in a flash, with a transfer capital of US$1.1 million.

Theo signed a three-year contract with Alkmaar, with an annual salary of 500,000 Dutch guilders plus floating bonuses.

Whether it was Lucio, Van Buyten or Ismail, they were all minor players in the European market at that time. They attracted too much attention in the Netherlands, mainly because of Alkmaar's name and Jiang Mu's hype.

Of course, the main reason is that the media really doesn’t have any good news to report.

Jiang Mu wanted to use this to put pressure on Ismael and let him understand two things. One is that Alkmaar does not have to be his, and the other is that Alkmaar is fully capable of competing for the championship and has great potential in the future.

Jiang Mu's strategy was very effective. The transfer that had been almost at a standstill began to make slow progress again. Ismail said that he was now considering the transfer issue. Returning to France or going to the Netherlands were both good options.

Although the current progress is slow, there is still some time before the start of the league. Jiang Mu is not in a hurry. Progress is a good sign. In order to add fuel to the fire, Jiang Mu expressed his plans for the next season in the column of "The Telegraph".

In order to prepare for the Champions League this season, his ambitions were once again hyped by reporters. On the basis of his miraculous coach, Jiang Mu was also known as the Dutch football madman.

A week after Jiang Mu returned to the Netherlands, the tranquility of the transfer market was suddenly shattered by a shocking news. The Telegraph first broke the news that the De Boer brothers, who had signed a lifetime contract with Ajax before the season, joined Barcelona.

, the transfer fee is as high as 20 million US dollars. Litmanen will also leave Ajax next season.

The next day, the news of the transfer of the De Boer brothers was confirmed by the Ajax club and head coach Olsen. The Dane was very disappointed and said: "The children think that I can't inspire them and make them improve.

, it’s normal to leave.”

Olsen's words not only confirmed the departure of the DeBoer brothers and Litmanning, but also proved that there was a problem in Ajax's locker room. Ajax had already improved somewhat, and the media was optimistic that they would work hard in the second half and compete with Felipe.

Yenod and Alkmaar compete for the championship together. After all, dark horses like Alkmaar are not durable, but now, they have been completely excluded from the championship, and Alkmaar's odds of winning have increased by two points.

Jiang Mu expressed regret for the departure of the De Boer brothers. He said: "Without the De Boer brothers and Litmanen, the quality of the Eredivisie has further declined. I hope they are here. In addition, no matter they are here or not, they will not

It affects our championship, we have already left them behind by 20 points."
