King’s Landing in Nottingham
Vol 2 Chapter 13: As long as the routine is deep
Chapter 13 As long as the routine is deep
After the welcome banquet, Guardiola's professionalism drove him to quickly enter his role.
Because it is the first time to coach, Guardiola does not have his own direct coaching team, and now he only has a goalkeeper coach, a veteran Colin who retired last season.
There are so many things, and they are all there. When there are fewer people, everyone has to take on a lot of work.
Colin, who has just passed his 38th birthday, gave Notts County new hope in the last battle of last season in a nearly desperate manner. He retired behind the scenes this season, if he can pass this spirit to Notts County. The youngsters, that's a great achievement.
Therefore, in addition to serving as the goalkeeper coach, Colin was also specially hired by Wei Xun as the team's youth coach and spiritual mentor.
Although Wei Xun also bears the title of an assistant coach, he has to continue flying around in the sky to form a strong team for Notts County in the new season.
Through Zhao Tai’s efforts, some first-team players and older youth players who are not in Guardiola’s new season plan either transfer or become club staff, so that Notts County is now even starting at the very least. Eleven people couldn't make it together.
In fact, this also coincides with Wei Xun’s needs. The Notts County first team has to make enough space for the upcoming little monsters. Therefore, Wei Xun did not set up any obstacles in the transfer fee, and he was a prodigal operation of selling for the money. Zhao Tai was so angry that he had a fever.
"Ashamed, ashamed..."
Looking at the surroundings of the Notts County base, the workers of the Shengfei Group Construction Company were sweating and working overtime, and Wei Xun was unwilling to be left behind.
As the club executive chairman of one of the team's troikas, Guardiola and Zhao Tai both wish to learn from Monkey King, and are so busy. Are you a big boss ashamed to continue to be drunk?
Those who have dreams are destined to have no summer vacation, so let’s continue to dig for teenagers...
Wei Xun's first stop was Hannover, Germany. In the youth training camp of the German second club Hannover, Wei Xun flicked and persuaded Hannover's youth training coach Stefan Mertesacker to join.
My colleagues simply couldn't understand why Stefan went to the second division of England and was so happy.
In fact, when the old Mertesacker heard that La Masia’s youth training coach Billa had joined Notts County and brought ten youth training coaches from La Masia, the old Mertesacker wanted to go with Billa very much. Discuss the development of youth training together.
It has been eight years since the Ajax Youth Training Camp, and he really wants to meet his old friend for a while.
My dad is gone, and the seventeen-year-old central defender Mertesacker, who has been with his dad since childhood, was also abducted by Wei Xun and taken back to Notts County.
Stefan Mertesacker believes that under Bila's precepts and deeds, his son will get better training in Notts County than in Hanover.
Father’s consent, unshown talent, and the transfer fee of 350,000 Euros proposed by Hanover is really a price of conscience.
Wei Xun believed that if it were not for the mediation of the old Mertesacker, the price would have been higher. Mertesacker's calmness and courage in the central defender position far exceed those of his peers at this stage. This calmness and courage is also a big boost to his future growth.
Later, Wei Xun went to Munich, the capital of Bavaria, to visit the management of Shinco Champions League champion Bayern Munich. The gift remained the same: two catties of high-end tea per person, but it was definitely not Longjing before the Ming Dynasty.
It's not about money or money, money can't buy so many goods.
After visiting the championship showroom of Bayern Munich, Wei Xun put away the envy and jealousy in his heart, and asked for the purchase of the team's main left-back Lizarazu.
I have to say that Wei Xun's request made the Bayern club's senior management feel extremely dissatisfied.
"I'm sorry, sir, I don't think this is a very interesting joke? I hope you can explain this!"
Carl Heinz Rummenigge's expression was a bit embarrassing. He didn't expect the club chairman from England to be so frivolous and rude.
"Mr. Rummenigge, I came with great sincerity. I think you might as well read our offer before talking."
Wei Xun handed over the transfer contract he had prepared for a long time. On the first page of the contract, it suddenly wrote Notts County's offer for Lizarazu:
Thirty-two million pounds!
"Thirty-two million pounds!"
Several of the Bayern executives present have stood up in surprise. At this time, some of them believe that Notts County from the second division really came to buy Lizarazu, at least this offer can satisfy them.
They are not people who have never seen money, but this offer made them take a breath.
"Gentlemen, you know, I just took over Notts County, my goal is to lead the team to upgrade, continue to upgrade, and win more honors.
Recently, I persuaded Mr. Guardiola, the former Barcelona captain, to join the team, and also introduced three youth training gems from La Masia. But I always believe that defense can win the championship, so our defense still needs to be strengthened.
In China, there is a saying that “one old family is like one treasure”. I believe that the joining of Lizarazu can help our young players in Notts County grow better, and play a role as a pinnacle in the new season. "
"Um, I'm sorry, Wei, I apologize to you for my previous impoliteness, but the player Lizarazu is really our non-sale item. Thank you very much for your club's recognition of his ability, but he is also ours. Defensive core.
He currently has a very stable position on the left side of the team. Coach Heathfield values Lizarazu very much. We cannot sell him. We are very sorry. "
"That's really a shame, gentlemen, I can only look forward to our next cooperation. Mr. Rummenigge, if Bayern wants to sell Lizarazu, please let us know as soon as possible, I miss Knotts The quotation from the county will surely satisfy you, goodbye."
Wei Xun walked very decisively. He refused Rummenigge and the others to send him off, and walked slowly towards the office door, but he kept mumbling in his heart:
"Fak, come and hold me, hold me..."
Just as Wei Xun was about to step out of the office door, Uli Hernes, who later became the chairman of Bayern Munich, rushed forward and grabbed Wei Xun:
"Sir, please wait a minute. I have a good candidate here. Although he can't reach the height of Lizarazu, he is very suitable for you and your Notts County as an alternative. We can Let's go to the training ground to see his performance. I think you are willing to consider this plan?"
"Then, walk?"
Wei Xun felt ecstatic in his heart, "The fish bit the hook, hehe..."
In the Bayern Munich team training match, Wei Xun finally saw his real prey on this trip Felipe Lahm, the future captain of Germany and Bayern.
He is not tall, he is flexible to grab, and accurately judges where he falls. What a good seed, he will soon belong to Notts County.
"Sir, that short player is the one I recommend for you."
Wei Xun actually knew that Hoeness was talking about Ram, but the scene still had to be full.
Wei Xun's eyes and head are still looking in the direction of Hernes's fingers, but there can be no surprise on his face, instead there is a bit of loss:
"Mr. Hoeness, what I need is an experienced left wing player, not a fledgling young player."
"Sir, Felipe is a young and mature player. You can see how straightforward he handled the ball these few times. He played 27 times in the German C team last season. He is the absolute main force on the left side of the team. Experience The aspect is not nothing.
The most important thing is that if Notts County is willing to rent and use, the price is very cheap. If you feel that it is not suitable, you can return it, do you think so? "
"Then tell me, how cheap can his rental fee be?"
Wei Xun hit the snake with the stick, and this question was really shameless and skinless.
"How about a million euros in two years? It's absolutely great value!"
Hoeness tentatively quoted a price. Although Ram is a left-side talent that the youth team focuses on training, Lizarazu’s current position is unbreakable. Instead of letting Ram play in the German C League, it is better to take advantage of the emergence of local tyrants to realize cash in time, and also rent out to exercise .
"One million euros is a bit expensive. I don’t think my team and I think that an 18-year-old guy is worth the price. You must know that the three players we brought in at La Masia cost less than three. Millions of euros, Iniesta is still the main player of the Spanish national youth team. His loan fee is only 1.1 million euros for three years. Even the 30-year-old Guardiola only spent five hundred for our club. Ten thousand transfer fee only."
Seeing that his business is going bad, Rummenigge, who will step down at the end of next season, also immediately intervened in this deal:
"Sir, one million euros for three years, plus fifteen appearances and one million euros floats up to one million euros, what do you think?"
"Mr. Rummenigge, I don't think it is necessary to make it so complicated. Money is still the most affordable thing in the bag, what do you think?
Since you admire him so much, for the sake of our friendship between the two clubs, I think I will set a loan of 500,000 euros for one year, first for three years, and if the loan is over, we have the right to pay a price of 12 million euros. Its buyout".
The 12 million buyout fee is not low. Although the potential is high, no one dares to say that Ram will definitely be worth more than Lizarazu in the future.
In order to leave a good answer sheet when he leaves office, Rummenigge bit his teeth and agreed to Wei Xun’s offer:
"Okay, deal!"
…
Although it was a bit more talkative, it was also very cost-effective to be able to buy out the left gate of Notts County for the next ten years at a price of 12 million euros.
The trip to Germany for a few days ended. Wei Xun went to Livorno on the west coast of Italy without stopping. At the Livorno club in the Italian League, Wei Xun spent 400,000 euros to buy and play left midfielder and midfielder. The avant-garde coconut Giogio Chiellini.
Although Serie A is the world's first league well-deserved at this time, the difference between the attractiveness of Italy's fourth-tier league and the third-tier league of England is visible to the naked eye.
After getting a low price for the future Italian defense general, Wei Xun visited the newly promoted Brescia in Serie A and offered 1.5 million euros to take away the team’s 34-year-old striker Dario Hubner .
Before Notts County, Piacenza had already offered 800,000 Euros. Anyway, they were all sold. Selling to Notts County not only avoided competition with national teams, but also sold more money. Why not do it. What?
Hubner is not young anymore. At this stage, it is natural to sign a big contract.
In fact, Wei Xun's offer is so high, it also means to give Brescia a little compensation, after all, he has already taken Guardiola who will join Brescia next season in advance.
The operation of buying Hubner is very similar to Guardiola, and Wei Xun intends to act as a coach directly in Notts County after Hubner retires.
Barzagli, who just returned on loan from the low-level team Pistoia, only played five times last season, with few opportunities to exercise.
Originally, during the transfer period, Barzagli would be bought by Ascoli at a cabbage price of 100,000 euros. Who would have expected that Wei Xun would be the first to buy this central defender who has only played in the low-level Italian leagues?
However, the price given by Wei Xun is a little more kind, 200,000 euros, which can be regarded as a blood transfusion for the bottom club of Italy, Mazo Corondinella.
Regardless of the living conditions of the small clubs in which country, it has never been optimistic. Players are underpaid, the company goes bankrupt, and the boss runs away. Three keywords are unavoidable.
Two days after the trip to Italy, Wei Xun went to Switzerland and bought the team's substitute right back Lichsteiner for 600,000 euros at the Swiss giants Zurich Grasshopper Club.
In this way, the team's defense line in the new season should be relatively complete, and it needs to be strengthened in the midfield, especially the team's full-back and winger positions are still relatively weak, and they have to buy people. To the point.
While resting in the hotel, Wei Xun carefully searched for the players in these positions in his memory, and immediately flew to France.
In the fourth division of the French league, the Boulogne team found the scar fighter Frank Ribery who had been expelled from the school due to a fight with his classmates.
Because Ribery left with Wei Xun voluntarily, and there is no professional contract in the amateur league, Ribery’s transfer did not cost Notts County a penny, but Wei Xun never eats nothing for nothing. For a little bit of meaning, black them stay. Fifty thousand euros were dropped.
After leaving France, Wei Xun came to the Netherlands, where he was fascinated in his previous life. There was no feasting, no love for children.
I'm here to be a trafficker.
In Groningen, Wei Xun spent 2.3 million euros to bring Groningen’s main player Arjan Robben to Notts County.
In recent years, the Dutch youth academy has shown a strong momentum under the leadership of Ajax. Since it has already arrived, there is no reason not to go to the youth academies of various clubs to dig a wall:
In Utrecht, which was in the last year of the club’s low tide, Wei Xun bought the iron man Kuyt, who was a huge success in Liverpool, for a transfer fee of 500,000 euros;
In the Ajax youth training camp, Wei Xuntao came to Inter Milan’s main striker Sneijder during the Triple Crown period and spent 2.7 million euros;
After that, Wei Xun came to Feyenoord, where Kuyt was supposed to go. After communicating with the management, the legendary striker Van Persie who will play for Arsenal and Manchester United in the future was also taken by Wei Xun, only a hundred. Ten thousand euros took away the striker who was able to score 20 Premier League goals in a single season.
I have to say that the Bundesliga and Eredivisie clubs are too conscientious, cheap and good, and have to come again next time.
For nearly a month, Wei Xun really learned what Zhuge Liang talked about against Confucian scholars.
The continuous bargaining has already drained Wei Xun's original energy, which is probably the most tiring summer vacation in his life:
There are no beautiful women to accompany, no beach, no sun bathing and endless food, only flying and flying.
However, the result was satisfactory. For less than 16 million Euros, Wei Xun bought back eleven players.
In Wei Xun's view, the most fundamental way for the team to develop is to establish Notts County's own youth training system and scouting system.
The way to dig out future stars is destined to be a fisherman. Every club is not a fool. Every time Wei Xun digs out players can be played in the end. The success rate is too high. It will not be so easy for Wei Xun to come and buy people in the future. , Others will definitely raise prices.
Wei Xun, who had returned to Nottingham, was too tired. He stayed in the apartment of the University of Nottingham for two days to make up for his sleep.
Guardiola, who had been immersed in the training field after coming to Notts County, now regarded Wei Xun with admiration.
At first he thought that Wei Xun's transfer operation was to buy scratching music, scratching a prize is one, the success rate is not known, but the victory is cheap.
But after personally inspecting the strength shown by the young players who came to the club one after another to report, he began to believe that Wei Xun and his Bingzhuye talk that night was not a young man's intention.
God knows where Wei Xun found these little-known players. Is he a very talented young scout?
very possible!
What is Wei Xun's assistant coach? It's a waste of talent. When you have time in the future, you must talk about him properly. Let Wei Xun concentrate on being a scout, and it's the right way to dig talents wholeheartedly.
PS: Thank you brothers for your collection recommendation, and thank you all honestly. I honestly know that what I wrote is not good, so I am very grateful to my brothers for every recommendation and every comment.
