Chapter 213: Dealing with Nakamura

Putting Messi in the adult team, Hugo was worried that Messi, who was young and small in size, would be hit. The competition in the adult team was very fierce, and it would be difficult for both him and Ronaldo to gain a foothold in the adult team.

When the World Cup was over, Hugo made a fortune as he wished, earning more than 20 million euros in total from gambling, because he knew more about the 2002 World Cup, had more choices of betting items, and the bets were scattered. No one knew that Hugo had made so much money in the World Cup.

When Seli came back from the World Cup, Hugo injected 20 million euros of gambling money into the Trapani club as transfer funds. With 20 million euros of transfer funds, Deco's high buyout fee was gone, and Seli had a lot more money in his hands. But the bad thing was that the team had already started training, and Seli had to be as fast as possible.

"Leo, don't be anxious! You have to be sure to start!" Hugo said to Seli in the office.

"Haha, of course I will be cautious. I already have some intentions. With this money, I can implement them. I will definitely try not to delay Mr. Zeman's work!" Seli laughed.

He then told Hugo about some of his favorite targets. When they were almost done, Hugo asked: "That Chinese agent, arrange for him to meet me at my home tomorrow and bring Li Tie to me! Hey, tell me, what is Li Tie like? Can he gain a foothold in Guingamp?!"

"He has plenty of physical energy, but his speed is not that fast and his coverage area is average. I value his style more. His style is more tenacious. I think his technical disadvantages can be improved in the European league, but don't expect his ceiling to be too high. He is not young now and can serve as a qualified substitute in the future!" Seli analyzed seriously.

This time, Xu agent and Chinese player Li Tie came with Seli. I don't know what Xu agent thought of. Anyway, he told Seli that Li Tie's transfer would not cost them a penny. He was a free agent at the time.

"It's fine if he can be a substitute. My idea is to let him return to Trapani next year. He can be a substitute in the team. Of course, if he has the ability, it would be good to compete for the main force in the team. I hope he can stay in the team for a few more days. We need such Chinese stars. He will help us open up the Chinese market! To tell you honestly, China will be a big consumer country that cannot be ignored in the future, including football consumption, tourism consumption, etc., which is good for our team and Trapani!" Hugo obviously pays more attention to the commercial value of Li Tie, but he does hope that Li Tie can adapt to European football and become a banner for Chinese players to study abroad.

Not only Li Tie, but also Japanese striker Yanagisawa Atsushi and his agent and Nakamura Shunsuke and his agent came with Seli this time. Yanagisawa Atsushi plays for Kashima Antlers, and Nakamura Shunsuke plays for Yokohama F. Marinos.

"The possibility of signing Yanagisawa Atsushi is relatively high, while the possibility of signing Nakamura Shunsuke is very small!" Seli's conclusion is this.

"Why?!" Hugo doesn't know much about the situation.

"As far as I know, Serie A's Reggiana is also very interested in him. Which team do you think he will choose?! Reggiana can use the quota of non-EU players for him, but we don't have this quota, so we can only rent him out. I think from this aspect, he is unwilling to come to us!" Seli explained.

When Hugo heard about Reggiana, he knew that his team had no chance. Reggiana was also a weak team, but after all, they were in Serie A, which was much more attractive than Trapani.

"Then why did he come to us?! Damn little Japanese, are you trying to cheat me here?!" Hugo cursed unhappily.

"I just said that the hope is not great, but it does not rule out that he will still join us! At least in terms of salary, if we want Shunsuke Nakamura, we can give him a higher salary. Reggiana will never be as generous as us!" Seli explained.

"So is he worth it?!" Hugo asked.

"He has very good skills. It is rare to see such outstanding skills among Asian players. As a midfielder, he has good vision and passing awareness, but he is physically weak and may have some problems in confrontation! But I still suggest that we try to sign him. He is my biggest discovery in Asia this time!" Seli gave a very high evaluation of Shunsuke Nakamura.

"Can he replace Deco?!" Hugo asked again.

"Why not give it a try?! Haha, he can't play for us this year!" Seli was full of confidence and then shook his head.

"I can also talk to Fuoti. Maybe we can consider signing this player together. They have no money and are more afraid of taking risks than us. We can let Reggina come forward to buy Shunsuke Nakamura, and then we will buy it back next year!" Hugo suddenly had an idea. He also met the owner of Reggina when he was doing the connection last year, but small teams like Reggina have long stood on the side. They have a good relationship with Milan. Fuoti supports Galliani.

"You have a really creative mind!" Seli gave Hugo a thumbs up. Hugo was not a football player a few years ago, but he was a very fast learner. He could come up with such an idea. Why wouldn't Regina be happy? They were very cautious in their investment. Even though Shunsuke Nakamura was not worth much, they would be very cautious because of his Asian identity and would not easily invest in him.

Hugo did what he said. In front of Seli, Hugo called Lilo Fuotti and explained what he was doing in a few words. !

Hugo's words were about mutual benefit. I know you are interested in Nakamura Shunsuke, but we are also interested. The competition between the two parties will hurt the relationship. You may not be able to compete with us!

Hugo's plan means that Reggina can use its non-EU quota to buy Nakamura Shunsuke first, and then use him for one season. Next season, Trapani will buy him again at double the price. If Nakamura Shunsuke does not meet the requirements and Trapani does not want him, Reggina will sell him, and Trapani can also make up the difference to prevent Reggina from suffering losses.

Reggina will not suffer any loss in this plan. It will double its profit in one year. Fuotti really can't think of any reason to refuse. He will not lose money if he does not make money. For him, the team's relegation is very important, but it is also important to make money by relying on players. It is really a good thing.

Of course, Fuotti understood the confidence revealed here. This shows that Trapani is very optimistic about Shunsuke Nakamura, but what's the problem? ! Football circles are about relationships, not making a fortune every time. It's good to deepen the relationship with Hugo through this incident!

The two presidents reached an agreement, and Regina sent people to Trapani the next day to discuss the issue of Shunsuke Nakamura.

Shunsuke Nakamura already knew that Regina was interested in him, but as Seli said, Regina was very cautious in investing in Asian players. They gave Yokohama F. Marinos the meaning of renting Shunsuke Nakamura for a season to see first, which gave Shunsuke Nakamura the reason to want to go to Trapani to see. He didn't want to be rented. An Asian player needs to adapt to an unfamiliar environment. A year of renting may take half a year or even more to adapt. He may not have time to show his strengths before being returned, which is what he doesn't want to face.

He hoped that he could transfer directly and stay in the team for a longer time. After all, the club would not be impatient if it spent money like renting. He is not a fool, he is very smart.

Now Regina has sent people to Trapani, and Shunsuke Nakamura and his agent are really confused.

"Mr. Nakamura, Trapani is very optimistic about your future! But we don't have non-EU quotas, which means that we can introduce you, but we can't register for you. You can't play for Trapani at all. We learned that Regina is very interested in you, so we will join hands with them to sign you! As long as we are promoted to Serie A, we will use the compulsory buyout clause to buy you out from Regina!" Seli explained to Shunsuke Nakamura and his agent through the translator.

Shunsuke Nakamura and his agent finally understood what was going on. They didn't quite understand why there was such a deal in Italy, but it seemed that Trapani really liked him, which made Shunsuke Nakamura feel flattered.

Everything went smoothly. The three parties agreed on the personal treatment of Nakamura and the treatment of his agent. Then Regina went back to send a fax of the offer to Yokohama F. Marinos. The price was completely dominated by Trapani. Yokohama F. Marinos was very ambitious and wanted more money, but Seli refused to let go. Nakamura and his agent also put pressure on the original club and insisted on going to Europe. After all, he had never played in the European league. Yokohama F. Marinos knew that they could not raise the price too high, and finally the price was 2 million euros.

Fuotti was of course not satisfied with this price. He naturally hoped that the price could be higher so that he could earn more. But this was also OK. He could earn 2 million a year. If Trapani was promoted to the Serie A again in two years, he would have to spend 6 million euros to buy Nakamura from him, and he could earn 4 million. It seemed to be about the same.

Since they have signed the Japanese Shunsuke Nakamura, who has both ability and commercial value, Trapani naturally does not want to give Yanagisawa Atsushi any chance and found an excuse to send Yanagisawa Atsushi back home. By the way, Celti does not appreciate this striker and he is not even as good as Li Tie. Yanagisawa Atsushi's goal efficiency in the Japanese league is not high and Celti is very skeptical about his prospects in Europe.
