Super Marshal

When the 22-day European Cup football feast came to an end, the group of scouts and coaches lurking in the stands of each European Cup game also returned to the club with their respective results to make reports.

Soon, all the major European teams began to invest in transfer operations.

As the league with the most purchasing power in Europe, every move of the Premier League attracts attention.

As the defending champion, although Manchester United lost to Barcelona in the Champions League final, their income from this event is far more than that of the La Liga giants. This makes Manchester United not short of money in the summer transfer market.

The introduction of a forward has also been Ferguson's worry in the past few months, especially after talking to Gao Han. Instead of being relieved, his struggles have deepened.

Among the strikers highly recommended by Gao Han, Benzema from Lyon was ranked first by him, but everyone knows that Aulas is a vampire. If you want to poach Benzema from him, how much money will you have to spend?

The same situation exists for another striker who plays for Zaragoza in La Liga, Diego Milito.

There is no doubt about the strength of this player, but he is already 29 years old, but the psychological price offered by the other party is not low at all. If it is not more than 20 million euros, there is no hope of taking him away.

But for Ferguson and Manchester United, buying a 29-year-old striker for more than 20 million euros?

Manchester United is also interested in the new Ruud van Nistelrooy and Huntelaar who are playing for Ajax.

This striker is worth a lot of money, but according to Gao Han, it seems that this striker is not suitable for Manchester United's style of play. After all, the Red Devils and Manchester United are no longer the style they had during Ruud van Nistelrooy's time.

What's more, the player also faces competition from Real Madrid.

However, after the European Cup, Ferguson added another name to his candidate list, Podolski.

Twenty-three years old, he is in his prime. Although he did not have satisfactory results in his two seasons with Bayern Munich, his strength is not bad. Judging from his performance in the European Cup, it is obvious that he is still quite capable. level.

Ferguson also learned from Gao Han before that he was relatively certain of Podolski's strength, but he believed that Prince Cologne was more suitable for the counterattack team's style of play, which was not in line with the current trend of Bayern Munich.

But isn’t Manchester United a counter-attacking team?

Chelsea is another big player in the summer transfer market. Real Madrid Robinho has been rumored to have been with them for a long time. After the European Cup, Abramovich also took a fancy to Alejandro Alejandro, a compatriot who plays for Atletico Madrid. Chauvinism.

According to reliable information from The Sun, it is said that Rijkaard admires Arshavin and Robinho very much and believes that the joining of these two players will greatly improve Chelsea's ability on both wings and allow the Blues' offense to take another step forward. steps, and Peter Kenyon even called Mendes himself.

Because the Portuguese is the agent of these two stars.

Arsenal's situation is not easy either. Adebayor is clamoring to leave the team, so Podolski has become Wenger's replacement. In addition, German striker and international Gomez is also the target of Wenger's hand-picked choice. Arsenal is also watching. On Arshavin.

In addition to the attention of the top three players in the Premier League, Arshavin is also interested in AC Milan's Carlo Ancelotti. However, according to German media reports, what AC Milan really wants is Bayern Munich midfielder Schweinsteiger.

In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, Ancelotti publicly stated that Gao Han's training of Bastian Schweinsteiger made him shine, and believed that the German piggy could greatly improve AC Milan's midfield thickness and organizational capabilities.

Also interested in Bastian Schweinsteiger is Juventus, but unlike AC Milan who only tried it out in the media, the Bianconeri directly made an offer to Bayern Munich for 15 million euros plus the Portuguese midfielder. Thiago, this will bring Schweinsteiger's transfer fee to 25 million euros.

This deal is considered an astonishingly high price in the entire Bundesliga.

In addition, Juventus also launched an attack on Bayern Munich's Podolski and made an offer of 20 million euros.

Coincidentally, Barcelona's Guardiola also launched an attack on Arshavin. He hopes that the Russian can strengthen the team's wings. In addition, he also wants to get David Silva and Villa. The tiger general of the legion.

However, according to reports from Daily Sports, what Guardiola really wants is Inter Milan’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

"The good cooperation between the two during their time at Inter Milan convinced Guardiola that Ibrahimovic can greatly improve Barcelona's frontcourt strength. For this reason, he will even send Ronaldinho to AC Milan went and even used Eto'o as part of the transfer."

But Italy also responded quickly. It is said that Moratti personally came forward and vetoed the transfer proposal.

"Because Gao Han once advised Moratti that before the team completes its metabolism, if you want to maintain competitiveness, the front trident cannot be moved, so whether it is Barcelona poaching Ibrahimovic or Real Madrid poaching Cristiano Ronaldo, Adriano and Moratti were unmoved."

On the contrary, Atletico Madrid seems to have been poached.

The new stadium is about to be completed. The team has basically guaranteed to enter the Champions League quarter-finals in the past few years. The income is huge, but there is still a financial gap, so the management has given the green light to the transfer of many players, including Villa and Torres.

"There is news that Atletico Madrid intends to use these two players in exchange for a huge transfer fee to ensure that the team's new stadium can be completed as scheduled, and then the development of the Sheets will usher in a new era."

Gao Han didn't pay attention to the speculation in the transfer market. However, after the European Cup, he had to return to China to participate in the opening of the Chinatown Youth Training Center and the opening of the Genius Day Summer Training Camp. So he made a special trip back to Munich to have a meeting with the management.

But when he returned to Munich, the club received another offer from Italy.

…………

…………

"It's still AC Milan, they want Van Bommel, and they are serious this time."

In the high-level conference room of the Sebena training base, Hoeness handed a fax to Gao Han.

Ten million euros is the Rossoneri's offer for the 31-year-old Van Bommel. It should be said that it is not low.

But Gao Han was a little embarrassed because Van Bommel had always troubled him.

Before the beginning, he did not like to use Van Bommel's type of midfielder because he was too tall and not flexible enough to provide what Gao Han wanted, continuous pressure, and due to his age, he The running aspect is indeed not as good as that of young players, which made Gao Han want to directly support Vidal to take over.

But Van Bommel performed very well last season and was the team's captain on the field, so Gao Han could never find a reason to take him down. After the season, that is, now, he is reluctant to part with Van Bommel.

Sometimes it’s quite embarrassing to think about it.

Compared with Gao Han, the club management thinks from a higher perspective. They believe that Van Bommel is already 31 years old and there are problems with renewing his contract with the team because Bayern Munich is relatively conservative and only wants to Give a one plus one contract.

That is to say, one year extension, and another year after certain conditions are met, but what Van Bommel wants is a two plus one contract, which makes the Big Three a little embarrassed, and Van Bommel is also waiting for a price in the European market through an agent. And sell.

It can be said that both parties regard this as a business transaction without too much emotional involvement.

"How are the contract renewal talks for Bastian and others going?" Gao Han asked with concern.

Rummenigge nodded: "It's going very well. If nothing unexpected happens, we will end all contract renewal negotiations in July. Bastian Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Hummels and other players will all get a brand new contract." contract and continue to play for the team."

Gao Han has no doubts about the execution ability of Bayern Munich's management.

"Judging from the performance in the European Cup, Lahm has matured. According to the team's tradition, after Kahn retires this summer, if Van Bommel leaves the team, Lahm will be the team's most ideal captain candidate. Schweizer Insteiger will serve as the team's vice-captain and I believe both of them will be able to fulfill their respective roles."

As early as last season, after Neuer replaced Kahn as the team captain, Van Bommel has been Bayern Munich's on-field captain, responsible for managing the locker room, leading player training, and acting as a coordinator between the players and the management and coaching staff. the role of the author.

But in the history of Bayern Munich, no foreign player has ever served as captain, which is why the team failed to correct Van Bommel last season.

If Van Bommel leaves the team, according to the principle of order, Schweinsteiger should take over, but Gao Han is more optimistic about the mature and steady Lahm, and he believes that Schweinsteiger will have no objections.

The Big Three also understood what Gao Han meant, and he didn't mind letting Van Bommel leave the team.

"Okay, we know what to do." Hoeness nodded.

"Where is Podolsky? What's his condition now?" Gao Han asked with concern.

When mentioning this local striker, the Big Three all looked embarrassed.

It should be said that Podolski's performance in the European Cup was indeed quite good. His three goals ranked him second only to Villa of Spain. He shined in the European Cup and won unanimous recognition from the fans.

But at Bayern Munich, his performance has never been satisfactory, especially when facing the competition from Klose and Aguero. His attitude is also very negative. Now he even wants to take advantage of his outstanding performance in the European Cup. We should take this opportunity to put pressure on Gao Han and the club to let him participate in more games.

I would like to ask, can the club and Gao Han compromise?

Not to mention that it is difficult for him to compete with Klose and Aguero. Even if he has the strength, it is difficult to be satisfied with this attitude.

Assuming his request is met, then everyone will follow the same example, then how will the team be managed?

"Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, AC Milan, Juventus, Cologne, Stuttgart..."

Hoeness read out a long list of names with a wry smile, "Half of the giant teams in Europe want to get him, and there are also several teams in the Bundesliga that are testing our attitude."

This is the influence of a competition like the European Cup.

In the past two seasons, Podolski's performance at Bayern Munich was not ideal, but with his outstanding performance in the two or three games of the European Cup, he immediately won the attention and favor of many wealthy teams.

Because of this, he had the confidence to say that he did not want to play as a substitute at Bayern Munich.

Gao Han is also aware of the current situation. He has no shortage of forwards, and he doesn't like to be held hostage.

"Twenty million... pounds, whoever can afford this price can take away Podolsky."

Gao Han's words surprised the three giants because the price was very high.

But this also shows Gao Han's attitude, the one with the highest price gets it, without any emotion.

Anyway, he has already promised to leave, so let him go.
