The Glory of the Godfather

Chapter 841: San Siro

Byron reported a news to Fang Jue.

The purpose of the Paris Saint-Germain club general manager's visit to Milan is likely to be for AC Milan's Brazilian central defender Thiago Silva.

After missing Cahill and Alex in succession, Fang Jue gave the club's top management a task to sign an excellent defender for the team, preferably a top central defender.

Aston Villa chief executive Bob Clark prefers Chelsea’s Brazilian defender David Luiz.

The general manager of Aston Villa, Byron, prefers AC Milan’s Brazilian central defender Thiago Silva.

However, it was only the investigation and discussion stage, and there was no real contact with the opposing club and players.

Now, knowing that Leonardo wants to help Paris Saint-Germain in digging for Milan and bringing Thiago Silva to Paris, Byron can't remain indifferent.

Byron’s opinion is that Aston Villa can be observed through Leonardo’s actions to see Milan’s attitude towards the sale of Thiago Silva.

After studying with Nesta in the past two years, Thiago Silva has made great progress and has been regarded as one of the best central defenders in football today.

Such a top player, under normal circumstances, Milan will not let go, and the player himself seems to be very satisfied with the environment in Milan, there is no basis for a sudden transfer and leave.

This is also the reason why Aston Villa has not really contacted AC Milan for the time being to buy Thiago Silva.

Now, Paris Saint-Germain's move can be used as a touchstone by Aston Villa.

Fang Jue discussed this with his coaching staff.

"Leonardo is going to his old club again." Ceballos said.

"He is going to hollow out Serie A." Werner also joked.

"Leonardo is most familiar with Serie A, so it's natural to aim for Serie A to dig people." Fang Jue said with a smile, "Furthermore, the Serie A environment is not good. If you spend money, few teams can be stable ."

...

Werner said that Leonardo wanted to'knock out Serie A', which is a joke.

But, in fact, this is exactly the ‘plan’ of Leonardo and Paris Saint-Germain.

Of course, this is not to say that this is the'malicious' behavior of Paris, but they are staring at the Serie A and poaching, but it is very likely to cause this situation.

Why stare at Serie A?

As Fang Jue said, Leonardo is most familiar with Serie A.

As a player, Leonardo has had a brilliant experience in Serie A and Ligue 1. As an executive and head coach, he is now serving in AC Milan, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain.

It stands to reason that he should take more care of his old club.

However, since becoming the general manager of the Paris Saint-Germain club, Leonardo frequently poached from the Serie A arena, and the Apennines are gradually becoming the youth academy of Paris Saint-Germain.

Last summer, Inter Milan has started to build the team in accordance with Leonardo's requirements, but the Brazilian has resolutely moved away from Ligue 1 and became the general manager of the Paris Saint-Germain club.

Since then, Leonardo has started to buy people from Serie A.

At the beginning of his tenure, Leonardo took a big shot: he bought the Argentine midfielder Pastore and Italian goalkeeper Ciligou from Serie A powerhouse Palermo for a high price of 46.5 million euros.

Among them, Pastore is worth as much as 43 million euros.

At that time, Pastore, who had just emerged, attracted the attention of Inter Milan, AC Milan, Roma and Juventus.

However, no one thought that Grand Paris would suddenly start and directly buy out at a sky-high price.

In the eyes of all the giants in Serie A, Paris’s move and certain licking dogs drove up... well, this behavior is simply an act of disrupting the market and driving up prices.

Compared with this big deal, Roma winger Menez and Juventus midfielder Sissoko are worth 8 million euros each, which is simply not worth mentioning.

During the winter transfer in January 2012, Leonardo continued his idea of ​​sweeping Serie A signings. This time he extended his tentacles to Inter Milan, where he served briefly.

Under the instigation of Leonardo, the blue-black midfielder Tiago-Motta iron heart left the team, and eventually Moratti had to sell the Italian international, for which Paris Saint-Germain paid Inter Milan 11 million euros.

After the loss of Motta, Inter Milan's situation has become worse and now ranks fifth in Serie A, and UEFA Champions League qualification is at stake.

Fang Jue does not pay attention to the situation of Inter Milan. He is thinking about the influence of Paris Saint-Germain's intervention on Aston Villa's reinforcement of the central defender.

In Fang Jue's view, the money-smashing behavior of Paris is even crazier than that of another local tyrant Manchester City.

Last summer, the cooperation between Aston Villa and Greater Paris was very pleasant:

Paris Saint-Germain bought Curtis Davis from Aston Villa for £31 million.

Later, it cost £17.1 million to bring Ronaldinho from Aston Villa back to the Prince Stadium in Paris.

Especially at the moment when the transfer window is about to close, Aston Villa is eager to deal with the Senegalese central defender. In this case, many giants who have been coveting the Senegalese are trying to lower prices. It is the grandeur of Paris at the crucial moment, which directly hit More than 40 million pounds, breaking the transfer record of a central defender, won the Senegalese.

Fang Jue had a very good impression of such a proud buyer.

However, he did not expect that the grandeur of Paris was crazier than he thought.

After owning Davis and the Senegalese, he turned his target on Thiago Silva.

If Paris Saint-Germain succeeds, the central defender configuration of Paris Saint-Germain can even be said to be among the top players in football, at least stronger than the current Aston Villa.

Fang Jue broke his wrist and made a popping noise.

He saw the huge ambition of this team from Leonardo's actions and the actions of Greater Paris.

Of course, in the short term, Paris will be a very good local buyer for many teams.

...

February 15th, evening.

San Siro Stadium, Milan, Italy.

The camera was aimed at San Siro's stand.

The defending champion of the Champions League, Aston Villa, faced Serie A giants AC Milan, which has reached the top of Europe seven times.

Therefore, the competition also attracted many stars.

Italian national treasure female star Monica Bellucci.

The camera gave close-ups of VIPs in the stands. When Monica Bellucci's figure appeared on the big screen, the fans cheered in the stands.

"What's the matter?" Fang Jue asked.

"Monica Bellucci, came to watch the game." Ceballos said.

Werner next to him was a little excited when he heard this: Monica Bellucci is watching the ball, who is watching whom?

Fang Jue nodded. It turned out that she was here. No wonder, this woman is a national treasure in Italy.

Speaking of Monica Bellucci, Fang Jue thought of the classic picture in the beautiful legend of Sicily. The men surrounded the heroine, rushing to light her cigarette...

In addition to Monica Bellucci, another Italian national treasure star, motorcycle racer Rossi was also on the scene.

Rossi, who appeared on the big screen, also won the cheers and applause of the fans.

He has devoted himself to this sport since he got involved in motorcycle racing in 1990. Youth, time, and honor are all his medals.

This is Valentino Rossi, one of the most successful racing drivers in sports history.

Italy's greatest motorcycle racer.

However, neither Monica Bellucci nor Rossi is a Milan fan, and Rossi is even a well-known hard-core fan of Inter Milan.

They came to watch the game, not to support AC Milan, just because it was a football feast.

...

At this time, the camera was aimed at a middle-aged man, and everyone immediately recognized Mourinho's famous face.

The Real Madrid coach seems to be in a good mood, talking to his friends from time to time.

There was a harsh hiss at the scene.

Mourinho glanced at the big screen, knowing that he was caught by the lens.

As for boos, he didn't care.

As the coach who led Inter Milan to the Triple Crown, it is not normal to be booed by Milan fans at the San Siro Stadium?

For Mourinho, this boo will not make him unhappy, but will be proud. This is the medal and mark of his success in Inter Milan.

The first leg of Real Madrid's Champions League quarter-finals will not be played until next week, so Mourinho has time to watch the game at San Siro.

In the commentary, everyone is also speculating about Mourinho's purpose in coming to San Siro to watch the match between AC Milan and Aston Villa?

Obviously, Mourinho will not panic.

There is only one reason why he came to watch the game. He came to inspect a certain player in person.

Who is Mourinho's goal?

Some commentators think it is Pato.

Some people say it is Thiago Silva.

However, the commentators from England and Spain are surprisingly consistent: Gareth Bale!

...

The starting lineups of both sides were played on the big screen of the stadium.

AC Milan:

Goalkeeper: 32-Abbiati;

Defensive line: 20-Abat, 5-Mex, 33-Tiago-Silva, 77-Antonini;

Midfielder: 10- Seedorf, 4- Van Bommel, 22- Nocerino 27- Boateng;

Forward line: 11-Ibrahimovic, 70-Robinho;

Aston Villa:

Goalkeeper: De Gea;

Defensive line: Kyle Walker, Papastasopoulos, Siren Clark, Milner;

Midfielder: Clement, Modric, Gareth Bale, James Rodriguez;

Forwards: Suarez, Klose;

AC Milan was eliminated by Aston Villa in the round of 16 knockouts last season.

Therefore, this time to meet Aston Villa again after a year, for AC Milan, the whole team is also holding revenge.

Moreover, AC Milan has been in pretty good shape recently.

The team's injury situation has also been greatly eased in this game. Boateng and Abbiati became the starters after recovering from injuries. Pato and Nesta appeared on the bench after recovering from injuries.

Van Bommel and Seedorf veterans were also in good health and were able to play.

On Aston Villa’s side, Fang Jue did not arrange for Mane to start. Although Mane came off the bench in the match against Manchester City, the physical condition of Mane who returned from the Africa Cup is indeed not good and very tired.

Therefore, Fang Jue chose Hamei.

The game has started for more than ten minutes.

The game scene was very intense.

AC Milan, who played at home, wanted to take the initiative, not conservative, but pressed out to attack.

On Aston Villa's side, due to Senderos' accidental injury, Fang Jue risked the use of the young player Cyron Clarke as the starting central defender.

In order to "fight the enemy outside the country", Fang Jue also arranged for Aston Villa to take an offensive, burning the flames of the battle in the opponent's half as much as possible to protect his own line of defense.

In addition, Senderos' accidental injury caused Aston Villa's central defender to have a "hidden danger", which also stimulated AC Milan and strengthened Allegri's confidence and drive to strengthen the attack!

...

Mourinho stared at Bell.

Although the Spanish media has been arguing that Real Madrid will introduce Bell.

But, to be more precise, this is the voice of Florentino's superstar policy. Real Madrid chairman Florentino appreciates Bell.

Want to bring this Welsh star to the Bernabeu Stadium.

Especially after Bell defeated Ronaldo and Messi and won the FIFA Golden Ball, Florentino's idea became even stronger.

However, to introduce Bell, for Real Madrid and Florentino, the first thing to do is not to convince Aston Villa and Bell himself ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ but to convince Mourinho.

If it's another head coach, Florentino can make a point without paying attention to the head coach's thoughts. Anyway, I bought a star, you can use it for me!

However, for Mourinho, Florentino still pays more attention to his ideas.

Mourinho was not very positive about the introduction of Bell at the beginning.

The most important reason is that Real Madrid's locker room is already full of big names.

After Raúl left, the Spanish native gang and Ronaldo’s Portuguese-speaking family barely maintained a balance.

In this case, the arrival of Bell may once again break or even detonate the dressing room of Real Madrid.

Especially this is most likely to stimulate Ronaldo’s nerves: what do you mean? I am the boss of Real Madrid!

However, as Bell defeated Ronaldo and Messi and won the Ballon d'Or, which strengthened Florentino's determination to introduce Bell, it also forced Mourinho's thinking to shake:

Florentino's determination to win Bell is unchangeable. In this case, Mourinho began to seriously consider the possibility of this matter.

Under this circumstance, Mourinho chose to come to the San Siro Stadium to watch the game. On the one hand, he really wanted to see the performance of this new World Footballer on the spot. Only by witnessing it on the spot is the most intuitive feeling. .

In addition, this is also a strategy after Florentino and Mourinho talked closely to test Ronaldo's reaction to this matter.

This temptation is relatively mild.

Because whether it is Mourinho or Florentino, they will not personally admit that Mourinho is here to investigate Bell.

As long as you don't say it personally, there is room for relaxation.

It really doesn't work. You can use the media to say that you are here to investigate Pato.
