Fox in the Penalty Area
Chapter 296: A Big Gamble
In addition to playing a key role in the transfer of Milos Vukovic, Hou Lai also became a key figure in another important transfer.
That was the transfer deal for Ismail Kamara from Leeds City to Madrid Pirates.
Leeds City had no intention of selling their star winger, partly because Kamara is so important,
On the other hand, of course, because the Madrid Pirates' asking price did not reach their psychological price, Leeds City originally hoped to sell Kamara for more than 100 million euros.
But the Madrid Pirates said that they are only willing to pay up to 75 million euros.
In the end, Ismail Kamara went to the club, hoping that the club would hold his hand high and let him go.
It is said... It is said that there are rumors on the Internet that Kamara said that if the club agrees that he will go to the Madrid Pirates, then he is willing to give up his signing fee and compensate the Leeds City Club for the signing fee.
Although neither Leeds City nor Kamara acknowledged the rumors, they did not deny how the two parties negotiated. No one knows. Anyway, the final result is that Kamara transferred from Leeds City and joined Hou Lai. Pirates of Madrid.
His departure has to make people wonder whether it has anything to do with Hu Lai.
Some people speculate that it may be that Hou Lai called Kamara, which made him so determined to leave Leeds City.
However, this matter was quickly refuted by Leeds City captain Pete Williams. He told reporters: "I called Hu, and he told me that he was busy with the Olympic Games and didn't pay attention to the transfer at all. .He neither called Ismail, nor did Ismail contact him. He also didn't know that Ismail went to Madrid until I called him..."
But some reporters also said: "Whether Hu called Kamara or not, one thing is certain—Kamara's insistence on going to the Madrid Pirates must have something to do with him. The two of them were good partners when they were in Leeds. Kamara is clearly looking to reconnect with the Pirates and Hu..."
Last season, Leeds City only finished eighth in the league and missed the Champions League and Europa League in the new season.
Their results were dragged down by last season's Champions League and Europa League.
This is also the team's worst season since its successful relegation.
Under such circumstances, it is normal for Kamara to want to leave the team-since there are already giants who have taken a fancy to him, why should he continue to stay in this team?
He doesn't have the same affection for the team as Pete Williams. The latter has rejected several Premier League BG6 invitations this summer, saying that he will stay in Leeds. And he firmly believes that the performance of last season will not be the normal state of Leeds City in the future. With more signings and further running-in, this team will definitely become a championship contender in the future.
For Camara, going to the Madrid Pirates can be with his friend Hu Lai and win the championship at the same time, why not do it?
So just like that, the two parties settled the deal for 76 million euros.
Of course, the seventy-six million euros will be paid in five years.
After Leeds City lost Hou Lai last season, Kamara was poached by the Madrid Pirates.
In response to this transfer transaction, some fans in China joked: "Leeds City caught Shining Star and a sheep and squeezed it hard, and the Pirates of Madrid caught Leeds City and squeezed it hard. A perfect food chain!"
The joining of Vukovic and Kamara has greatly enhanced the strength of the Madrid pirates.
However, the joining of the two of them made the original striker Danielle Di Kunzo a little nervous. Last season, Di Kunzo was the main force of the iron fight. Although he couldn't compete with Hu Lai, he was competing with Max Carey. gained the upper hand.
But as Kyrie regained his form,
Di Kunzo's position is a bit awkward.
Because although Carey is doing things to organize the midfield, his position is still a forward, so if Carey wants to play, Di Kunzo's position will be threatened.
Fortunately, Parrotti found a solution later, letting Di Kunzo go to the right to replace the ups and downs of the Portuguese right forward Silvilio.
But this is actually not a long-term solution, because Di Kunzo is a striker, he is not a right midfielder.
It's okay to make a cameo once in a while, but it's hard to keep him here for a long time.
So this summer, the Pirates bought Kamara, intending to completely solve the problem on the right side.
Only then.... Di Kunzo will have to return to the front line and compete with Max Carey.
At the same time, the club also introduced Vukovic, a real organizational midfielder, which is bound to squeeze Carey's space.
Carey will continue to stay on the front line and partner with Hou Lai.
In this way, wouldn't the one who was sacrificed become the Italian striker Di Kunzo?
So this summer came the news that Di Kunzo wanted to leave the team.
But fortunately, it was just a rumor in the end, and it didn't really come true. After all, Di Kunzo's personal ability is still outstanding. His existence is also a very useful supplement to the Madrid Pirates' lineup, which can greatly enhance the thickness of the team and enrich tactics. Variety.
The reason why Di Kunzo chose to stay in the end may also be because Maxikeri's contract expires in another year. As soon as Carey left, all the problems that Di Kunzo encountered now would be solved.
The Italian is not stupid. He saw the ability shown by Hu Lai, and realized that as long as he can stay in the Madrid Pirates and take this train, he will not be afraid of losing honor in the future.
The Madrid Pirates also hope that Di Kunzo can continue to play for the team, so they try to renew Di Kunzo's contract.
However, Di Kunzo did not immediately agree to the conditions of the pirates, but decided to observe and observe first. Anyway, he still has three years of contract with the Madrid pirates.
He wants to see how the team positions himself this season, and also wants to see what status he will gain in the team after Max Carey's contract expires and leaves the team next season.
If he can't be satisfied by that time, his contract period is running out, and it will be easier to leave.
If you think about it now and renew your contract with the club, wouldn't you be crushed by the club and treat him as you want? It won't be easy for me to leave by myself.
※※The Madrid Pirates have a lot of expenses this summer, which is why they are unwilling to spend more money for Camara. Because they still need to save money and compete with other European giants for the talented center back Danny of the Dutch heavyweight
Drew.
In order to win this Dutch treasure, the Madrid pirates may have to pay a lot.
Fortunately, after nearly two months of back-and-forth and fierce competition, the Madrid Pirates finally snatched food from the Turin Bulls, Catalan United, Stan Park Rangers, etc. A group of European giants snatched Danny Drew.
The transfer fee is as high as 98 million euros!
Almost 100 million!
Danny Drew also set a record transfer fee for a centre-back and is now the most expensive centre-back in world football.
Even if it is a wealthy family, it is still very exaggerated to spend so much money in one summer.
After all, the Madrid Pirates are not the kind of local tyrants with oil capital. Spending so much money in one summer puts great financial pressure on the team.
But they did it anyway.
Because Hu Lai's performance last season let them see the hope of competing with the King of Madrid. Last season, they defeated the King of Madrid in the domestic league, snatched the league championship, and broke the opponent.
Good thing for the "Triple Crown".
The Champions League also reached the semi-finals.
Hu Lai contributed a lot to this achievement.
He scored 36 goals in the league last season, 16 in the Champions League and one in the Copa del Rey. A total of fifty-three goals were scored on behalf of the club in various competitions.
This kind of performance is already very good, but Parotti told the club management that this is far from Hu Lai's limit.
Because last season's Madrid Pirates had a lot of deficiencies and deficiencies in the lineup, which was equivalent to lame one leg and one hand tied.
In this way, Hu Lai can score fifty-three goals.
What if the pirates had healthy legs and hands?
In order to match Hou Lai's ability and fully release his strength, the club must increase investment in the transfer market and bring in those on Parotti's list.
These are the people the team needs most right now.
Hu Lai's outstanding performance convinced the management of the Pirates Club that they were willing to pay for a big gamble.
This is indeed a gamble:
If they invest so much money and introduce strong support, but they don't get the results they want-especially the breakthrough in the Champions League-then so much investment will be transformed into a huge burden and burden for the team next season, It may even cause turmoil in the club.
Coach Parotti will inevitably be responsible for the failure, so he has to dismiss get out of class.
And the team's lineup will also usher in a major cleanup, and the team's tactics and concepts will change.
If the team cannot stabilize quickly, then the results in the next two or three seasons may be hard to say...
The club management can only believe in Parotti's promise now, and believe what he said:
Hu Lai's energy has not been fully released.
He can still score more goals and bring more victories to the team.
But there is a very unfavorable factor at present, that is, the "hope of the whole village" has missed all the team's training camps before the start of the new season.
Can he integrate quickly with an enhanced team?
Can he recover from the fatigue of the Olympic Games and find the state and rhythm of playing in the club as soon as possible?
Finally, can he stay healthy for the rest of the season?
It's all unknowns.
