Super Marshal

"This summer, due to the wave of coaching changes in European football, the situation in the entire transfer market has undergone tremendous changes."

As the team's technical director, Cantarero took the lead in analyzing the situation in European football this season.

As the saying goes, once an emperor is like a courtier, the wave of coaching changes is bound to bring intense turmoil, which will greatly stimulate the prosperity of the transfer market and further stimulate the value of outstanding players in the market.

"The one currently in the spotlight is undoubtedly Paris Saint-Germain. After Laurent Blanc took office, the team decided to increase investment again, hoping to build on last season's success and become the first team in history to successfully defend the Champions League. team, so their recruitment targets include Cavani and Rakitic."

Cavani is a well-known powerful center in Serie A. If Blanco wants to introduce him, it should be to fill Drogba's vacancy and continue to enrich the team's tactics. After all, Gao Han used Suarez and Drogba in rotation last season. Considered a textbook by everyone.

As for Rakitic, this should be about strengthening the midfield.

But Paris Saint-Germain is not the only one who is interested in Rakitic. Barcelona and Real Madrid are also interested.

"In addition to Paris Saint-Germain, the Ligue 1 also welcomed a wealthy man this season, Monaco's Rybolovlev. He spent 20 million euros to introduce Kondogbia from Sevilla. Next James Rodriguez, Moutinho, Rakitic and Falcao are said to be on their radar."

Gao Han knew about this team, and Rybolovlev had a close relationship with Mendes, so it was unlikely that Chinatown would be poached by force.

"Manchester City will also continue to increase their recruitment efforts this summer. Xavi Alonso is old and has failed to qualify for this summer's Confederations Cup. Manchester City intends to introduce strong reinforcements to fill Xavi Alonso's vacancy. The first choice is Illa Ramendi.”

"Real Madrid has not introduced a superstar for many years, especially after James Rodriguez, who was imported with a lot of money, was not reused, and Florentino was under greater pressure. After Mourinho was dismissed, Real Madrid's There are problems with the selection of coaches, but it is said that in terms of superstar signings, Manchester City's Gareth Bale and Paris Saint-Germain's Neymar have been initially locked in."

Having said this, Cantarero couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Gao Han. These two players were promoted by Gao Han.

Gareth Bale is highly used in Manchester City, but in the end he still has to succumb to Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaká and Sanchez. This makes the Welshman a little dissatisfied. Only then can he become the star after switching to Real Madrid. It’s Gareth Bale’s quest.

But it may not be easy to convince Manchester City to let him go.

"According to the news we have received, Real Madrid is likely to let go of players such as Higuain and Ozil to raise a huge sum of money to transfer superstars and further strengthen the team's competitiveness."

Gao Han nodded, which was in line with Florentino's way of operating.

"Barcelona is very interested in Rakitic, Hazard and Isco, but they are still looking for a coach. Atletico Madrid has a clear goal. After Carvalho leaves the team, they need to strengthen their defense. I want to help you get our Godin."

"Benitez of Inter Milan has also appointed two players, one is the center forward Pelle in the frontcourt, and the other is the center back Miranda in the defense. They are both signings to further strengthen Inter Milan's competitiveness."

After listening to Cantarero's introduction, Gao Han realized that Chinatown has almost become a hot cake, and everyone wants to take a bite.

But it's no wonder that Chinatown's performance in the past few seasons has been too outstanding.

More importantly, the halo effect of the high cold has made everyone have an almost blind superstition towards the players in Chinatown.

Gao Han thought about it for a moment, turned his head and looked at Zidane who was sitting under Cantarero, "What do you think?"

This is the first time Zidane has participated in the club's summer working meeting as head coach. As a first-time coach, he came with a learning attitude, but it is related to the team's summer transfer and the new season. To form a team, Zidane has already prepared his own set of ideas.

"Pellet is 28 years old and Miranda is 29 years old. If these two players really want to leave the team, I think it is okay as long as the transfer fee is appropriate."

Chinatown has a bright future, but no one knows when it will rise. However, transferring to other wealthy teams is still quite attractive for players of Pellet and Miranda's age.

Especially Pelle, he is Italian and has been frustrated in Serie A, which has led to his development in the national team not being smooth. However, if he can join Inter Milan, his influence in the national team will be further enhanced.

"But how will the team attack in the new season?" Cantarero asked with concern.

Zidane was well prepared and replied directly: "I think that if players like Firmino and Morano are used as center forwards after winning Pelle, the team's running and cooperation in the frontcourt will be more rigorous. He is also more threatening and faster, which will make the team's offense sharper."

"Firmino?" Gao Han and others were a little surprised.

What this Brazilian player is best at is not in the center of the frontcourt, but he is very comprehensive and a very good all-rounder. He is also very diligent and has a wide running range. He actively presses the opponent and pushes to the front line, okay?

"I think we can give it a try," Zidane said, "and both Morata and Jese should get more game opportunities, especially Morata."

Gao Han and Cantarero looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Morata and Jesé are already twenty years old, and together with a 19-year-old Dybala, they are already capable of playing for Chinatown. Zidane's move is undoubtedly a further promotion of Chinatown. of youth.

If done well, this would make Chinatown more vibrant.

"Unlike the frontcourt attack, the defense is mainly for stability. One of Godin and Miranda must be retained. Personally, I prefer to let Miranda leave the team. Godin is only 27 years old, and Varane and Dever Li, Marquinhos and Umtiti will all get more opportunities, these four young players are the future of the team."

Cantarero nodded repeatedly. Zidane had the same idea as him.

"What about the midfielder?" Gao Han asked again.

"Illarramendi and Isco must stay, Rakitic can go, we also have Verratti, Pogba and Koke, the defensive midfielder positions in the new season will be Illarramendi and Can With the special rotation, the team will try to play with more control than last season."

According to Chinatown's performance last season, Chinatown will play more thoughtfully after Verratti comes on the field. The Italian midfielder is a bit like Barcelona's Xavi. With him, Chinatown's midfield organization and passing will be better. Be more organized.

Isco is good at attacking with the ball, and I believe he can produce quite good results when paired with Verratti.

As for other positions, there will basically be no major changes.

Although Griezmann has only joined for a year and has not scored as many goals as Aubameyang, he has fully proved his strength and potential. Hazard is still the core of the team's frontcourt offense. De Bruyne The role of the team is also very obvious.

The two full-backs Danilo and Alex Sandro are still the main players in the defense, but after Montoya's performance and familiarity last season, he believes that he will officially challenge Danilo's starting position this season. , but Alberto Moreno can only serve as a substitute on the left, and is temporarily unable to shake Alex Sandro's position.

In terms of goalkeeper, De Gea is almost the best choice.

Judging from the lineup and ideas outlined by Zidane, Chinatown in the new season is still worth looking forward to.

"Okay, then according to what you said, you should draw up a plan as soon as possible." Gao Han made the decision on the spot.

This is also the way Chinatown has always been.

Since Zidane has been appointed as the team's head coach, he should be given sufficient trust and support.

…………

…………

As Chinatown formulates its summer transfer strategy, various departments of the club have begun to operate in an orderly manner.

When the team gave the green light to the transfer of Pellet and Miranda, Inter Milan came to the door immediately. Blanca personally went to Madrid to contact Cantarero and spent three days to negotiate the transfer of Pellet. Transfers of Rai and Miranda.

Both players switched to Inter Milan for a high price of 30 million euros, with a total price of 60 million euros.

As soon as the news spread, it immediately caused a huge response in the entire European summer transfer market.

This is the biggest deal in European football so far.

Pellet and Miranda also quickly reached an agreement with Inter Milan, and both clubs immediately announced the two transfers.

Benitez also expressed his welcome to the two players in Milan, believing that the addition of Pellet can greatly enrich the team's frontcourt offense, while Miranda will form the team's central defender combination with Bonucci in the new season. .

Benitez said that he firmly believes that the joining of two strong players can greatly enhance the competitiveness of Inter Milan.

However, after Inter Milan received more than 60 million euros in Champions League shares, coupled with the opening of the new stadium, its financial resources have greatly increased, and it is expected that it will continue to invest in the transfer market.

What is surprising is that after selling the two main players, Chinatown did not take any action in the transfer market. On the contrary, in terms of contract renewal, Chinatown successively announced the start of contracts with many core players in the team. In contract renewal negotiations, efforts will be made to retain many main players including Hazard, Isco, Illarramendi and De Gea.

This is also regarded by the outside world as a major performance in stabilizing the team's competitiveness after Chinatown's financial resources have improved.

After Mourinho took over, Chelsea also began to increase investment in the transfer market. They introduced Brazilian midfielder Willian from Anzhi of Russia at a high price of 40 million euros and 25 million euros. The offensive player Schurrle was introduced from Leverkusen. Both transfers were signed by Mourinho.

Manchester City also quickly announced that it had introduced Brazilian midfielder Fernandinho from Shakhtar Donetsk for a high price of 40 million euros, and Jovetic from Florence for a high price of 30 million euros.

With the joining of Jovetic, everyone has realized that Manchester City has given the green light to Gareth Bale to transfer to Real Madrid. The only difference between the two sides is the amount of the transfer fee.

If the Premier League, with the support of strong financial resources, purchases and recruits on a large scale, then La Liga will begin to face heavy losses this season. Barcelona and Real Madrid are facing turmoil in their coaching positions, and their recruitment operations are unfavorable, while Chinatown and Valencia Stars from teams such as Sevilla and Sevilla are facing the loss of players.

Especially in Chinatown, after letting go of Pellet and Miranda, Rakitic has also become a hot commodity in the summer transfer market, including Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Internazionale. Teams such as Milan are coveting him, and the Croatian midfielder's liquidated damages are as high as 50 million euros.

So much so that many media reporters and fans have speculated that Chinatown’s transfer revenue will once again exceed 100 million this summer.

But compared with previous years, Chinatown will no longer dominate this year.

Not long after the transfer market opened, Russia's Anzhi had already generated 140 million euros in transfer fee income, far exceeding Chinatown.

That is to say, when the European transfer was in full swing, Gao Han, who returned to China for a vacation, received a long-awaited coaching invitation.
