Chapter 195 Fluctuation

When the news came that Chelsea offered 30 million for Xia Xing, and when Arsenal and Manchester United followed suit,

Everyone believes that during this winter transfer period, Xia Xing will cause a bloody storm.

But everyone got it wrong.

On the morning of December 18, three transfer offers were submitted to Leicester City's table and were also exposed by the media.

At noon that day, Leicester City held a formal press conference.

Pearson appeared in the club's press conference hall with Xia Xing.

Also appearing in the hall were Vardy and Mahrez.

There have also been transfer rumors about these two people recently. Although it is not as shocking as Xia Xing, it still has some impact.

Facing reporters, Xia Xing firmly expressed his thoughts.

“I joined Leicester City last season and competed with the team in the English Championship.

“It was a wonderful experience to successfully reach the Premier League and win the FA Cup.

“And this summer I’m delighted to make my move to Leicester City official.

“Now, I just hope to create more miracles with the team.

"Before this, I will not transfer and leave.

"that's all."

Although Vardy and Mahrez did not speak, their firm eyes said everything.

After the players expressed their stance, Pearson also firmly expressed his stance.

"We will not sell important key players this winter.

“Because we are not short of money.

“Not only that, we will continue to increase the number of signings.

“Make the team more competitive.

"Our goal this season is definitely not just to avoid relegation!"

Yes, everyone can see that Leicester City cannot just fight to avoid relegation.

It is unlikely that they can hit the league championship.

But getting a place in the top four in the league is still very promising.

For players such as Xia Xing, Mahrez and Vardy, reporters can also see it.

They are not destined to stay at Leicester City forever.

Especially the younger Xia Xing and Mahrez.

They have great potential and will become world-class stars.

The future is promising.

However, at this stage, staying in Leicester City and continuing to level up must be a better choice for them.

The transfer wave set off by Xia Xing ended just as it began.

However, because of this incident, Leicester City Club has promoted winter transfers faster.

For the current Blue Fox, increasing the depth of the bench as much as possible is what they must do.

Now, we have to speed up the progress.

The core players have stated that they will go all out for the club, how can the club sit still and wait?

Soon, several signings were finalized.

The 23-year-old Croatian forward Kramaric was transferred from the strong Croatian team Rijeka for a transfer fee of 9 million euros.

The forward is not tall, but has excellent skills and is good at passing and shooting.

Chelsea's old goalkeeper Schwarzer came on a free transfer. The 42-year-old will bring more experience to Leicester City.

The 30-year-old German defender Huth, who also has Blues blood, is on loan from Stoke City. He will fill the gap in Leicester City's defensive line.

There is a buyout clause in the lease contract, and the price of 4 million euros is also very reasonable.

The targeted joining of these three players has strengthened three positions respectively.

The transfer fee, which cost about 10 million euros, was relatively cost-effective.

On January 1, 2015, they will officially join the team.

When someone comes, someone leaves.

The young Kramaric is here, and the veteran striker Fletcher is gone.

He went on loan to Millwall in search of more playing time.

When the loan contract ends, his contract with Leicester City also expires.

So this time we break up, we will never see each other again.

There is also young forward Crosswood, who asked to leave.

In fact, the club did not want to let him leave, but he wanted more playing time and strongly requested to leave the team.

Eventually, he went on loan to Ipswich Town and returned to the Championship stage.

Young goalkeeper Adam Smith is also gone.

At the age of 22, he could not stay in Leicester City as the third goalkeeper, so he chose to leave.

There is also Nick Powell, who is on loan from Manchester United. He will also return to Manchester United after his loan contract expires on January 1.

He failed to realize his talent at Leicester City and failed to win a buyout contract.

What awaits him is that he will continue to be loaned out by Manchester United.

The club retains main players such as Xia Xing and Mahrez, and clears out some marginal players, making the lineup more reasonable.

However, the team's performance has fluctuated a lot in recent times.

After winning against Manchester City, Leicester City will play one Premier League game in the next three days.

In the 17th, 18th and 19th rounds of the league, they faced West Ham, Tottenham and Hull City respectively.

All three games at Leicester City ended in draws.

Because I had just finished playing against Manchester City, I was on the bench when I played against West Ham.

But the team's overall performance was extremely poor.

It ended 2-2.

If it weren't for Xia Xing's passes and shots, it would be difficult for the team to take away a point on the road.

Three days later, in the game against Tottenham, Leicester City played with all their main players.

However, Vardy was tackled by an opponent during the game and unexpectedly left the field.

This frightened Pearson, who was worried about Vardy reappearing the serious injury he suffered some time ago.

However, after the post-match examination, the problem is not serious and a week of rest will be fine.

However, despite this, the rhythm of Leicester City in this game was disrupted.

Connockate, who came on as a substitute, could not fill the vacancy of Vardy and failed to score in succession.

In the end, Leicester City ended 0-0 helplessly.

This Christmas Eve, the Blue Fox fans were not in a good mood.

And three days later, Leicester City still failed to win the game against Hull City.

Although the team is in poor condition, it must also rotate a large area.

In this game against Hull City, Pearson consciously let several players who are about to leave the team start or come on the bench.

In the end, the two sides played 3-3 in this game.

Chris Wood and Fletch each scored a goal, and Manchester United loan player Powell also scored with a long shot.

All three goals were assisted by Xia Xing.

The three players also hugged Xia Xing affectionately after scoring.

As the team's veteran, the 33-year-old Fletcher witnessed the team's success in the Premier League, occupying the top spot in the Premier League for a long time, and qualifying for the Europa League group stage. He is already very happy.

As a veteran of the Foxes, he was satisfied with his departure.

Chris Wood's departure was somewhat sad.

He had talent, but he could not find the best feeling of scoring.

After Kramaric joined, he decisively left the team.

After scoring, he hugged Xia Xing tightly.

"Xia, thank you for so many assists. It feels so good to play with you."

Another Manchester United player, Powell, left the team in a very gloomy way.

The end of this wandering means the beginning of the next wandering.

Scoring the equalizer, listening to the applause of Leicester City fans, hugging former teammate Xia Xing.

Powell felt very sad.

What will happen in the future...
