Chapter 14 Valencia Is Killed Halfway

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Guardiola did not let Chang Sheng wait too long, perhaps because he had not found a suitable place to go down the street for such a long time, which also made him lose the patience and courage to continue waiting.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Chang Sheng received a call from Guardiola's agent Oloviteger that night.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;"We can talk about specific personal contracts, Chang."

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Chang Sheng didn't say a word, he clenched his fist and paid attention to it, and let out a "yeah" in his heart.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;"Very good, Mr. Oloviteger. We are always available." He suppressed his excitement and tried to keep his voice calm.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It is very simple to negotiate a contract with Guardiola's agent, just give a price that the other party accepts.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because it is a free transfer, Guardiola's agent will definitely ask for a high salary.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Of course, this high salary is also relative. After all, Guardiola is thirty years old, was abandoned by Barcelona, ​​and retired from the national team. It is conceivable that he has not much time left in his career.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;They have no right or confidence to demand high prices. Even if Olovitege wanted it, Guardiola would not do it. Because this is tantamount to smashing Guardiola's own brand and ruining his reputation.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Guardiola has always been an honest and good person throughout his career.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;If it is finally reported that he is asking for a lot of money, what will others think?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So Chang Sheng is not worried about Olovitege's extravagant asking prices.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Olovitege asked Changsheng for a weekly salary of 60,000 US dollars, and the contract was for three years.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Chang Sheng exchanged for fifty-five thousand dollars.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Then after Olovitege called Guardiola,

The offer was accepted.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But then he proposed to get an additional commission of 500,000 US dollars.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;In terms of team signings. Changsheng has absolute autonomy. The club gave him 25 million US dollars, so he can use all the money. As for whether to use it to buy people or to clear up relationships, it depends on Chang Sheng himself.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Anyway, if there is an illegal act in the end, Chang Sheng will bear the responsibility.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It's not the first time that Chang Sheng encountered such a situation where a broker asked him for money. When he was in Getafe, he signed Yaya Toure. Yaya Toure said that if he didn't give his family 100,000 yuan, he would not sign the contract.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So Chang Sheng is not surprised to see this. Know that this is the so-called unspoken rule.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;The commission of 500,000 US dollars, I can still afford it. Anyway, it's a free transfer, just think that I spent half a million yuan to introduce Guardiola from Barcelona.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;You must know that Guardiola is worth a lot at this time. If his contract with Barcelona has not expired, at least 15 million US dollars is required to buy him.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Chang Sheng readily agreed to the manager's request.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;This made Oloviteger very satisfied.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;He thought that this young Chinese coach would strongly oppose it...

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Now it seems that they are very knowledgeable.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;After the explicit rules and unspoken rules of both parties are settled. It is a contract.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But not at this time, Guardiola has to go to Valencia to undergo a medical examination. After passing the medical examination, he can sign and the contract will come into effect.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because Guardiola's contract with Barcelona has expired, this transfer deal does not involve Barcelona at all.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;In addition, Chang Sheng did it very secretly. It was Guardiola who took the photo himself, and there was no word about it before.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So when Valencia's official website announced the first signing of the new season, everyone was shocked!

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Valencia actually won Barcelona's former captain Guardiola? !

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;What kind of trouble is this going to be?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Didn't Guardiola declare before that he would not stay in Spain? Because that would put him against Barcelona, ​​which is unacceptable to him.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Why did you go to Valencia now?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Although the relationship between Valencia and Barcelona is not bad. But now the two teams are rivals after all. In the last round of the league last season, how Valencia was squeezed out of the Champions League qualification by Barcelona, ​​have you forgotten?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It is really surprising that Guardiola would choose Valencia.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Of course, the local media in Valencia regarded this as the best revenge against Barcelona.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But it is just the Ah Q spirit of a small group of people.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;After all, Guardiola announced in April that he was leaving Barcelona. So this is not a "tiger's mouth pulling teeth" at all, but picking up leftovers that others don't want.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Therefore, many media criticized Chang Sheng’s signings as a failure—although they didn’t spend money, they would definitely give them high salaries. Too high salaries are also a big problem for Valencia’s finances. Influence.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;And after Guardiola comes, can he accept the substitute?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;If he can't, which one is Baraja or Albelda?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It seems that none of them can move, right?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So everyone thinks that Guardiola brought by Changsheng cannot strengthen the team. Instead, it will only lead to chaos in the team's locker room.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;※※※

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Chang Sheng didn't have time to chat with the media in newspapers.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;After Pep Guardiola was finalized, he flew back to Valencia, continued to fight in the base camp, and directed the club's transfer operations.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because only one transfer contract has been finalized now, Chang Sheng is not in a hurry to sell someone.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;What if the player cannot be replenished after the sale?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;He has been in touch with Llorente who is going to Malmö, Sweden, and calls twice a day to report the progress of the situation.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Judging from the information reported by Llorente, this time is really a good risk. Had they delayed by two more days, maybe Malmo would have agreed to Ajax's offer.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;This negotiation started at the end of March and has not yet been concluded, because Malmo's asking price is too high.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;They didn't want to sell Ibrahimovic at first.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But Ajax has enough sincerity, and Ibrahimovic himself wants to leave the team to go to a wider place.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Later they agreed to sell Ibrahimovic, but the two teams were stuck on the transfer fee.

&nbp; &nbp; &nbp; &nbp;

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;No matter how Ajax bargains. Just don't let go.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;On this price, the two sides have been deadlocked for more than a month.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Now the situation has finally eased.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Ajax's latest bid is 7.8 million.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;And told Malmö that this is the last offer, if he disagrees, the business will be lost.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Even so, there are many criticisms from the outside world.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Giving a 19-year-old boy $7.8 million, in the eyes of many people, Ajax is crazy.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;After all, no matter how talented Ibrahimovic is, it will be a matter of the future.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Even if Wenger is optimistic about him, so what, there are many people who Wenger is optimistic about.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Why is Ibrahimovic worth so much money?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So Ajax is under a lot of pressure.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;If it's not true love. When Malmö quoted a transfer fee of 8 million US dollars, they would not talk to each other at all, but turned around and left.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because even Ajax. I also think the price is too exaggerated.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Just when the two sides had been deadlocked for a long time, Malmo saw that Ajax was not bluffing this time, but was really planning to give up the transfer deal. Things took a turn for the better.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;In the beginning, Malmö didn't want to sell Ibrahimovic.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But once they planned to sell it, they couldn't accept the result of not selling it in the end.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Just after they considered whether to accept the offer from Ajax, Llorente turned out.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;He directly gave the highest price that Chang Sheng allowed him to decide-eight million dollars.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because of time constraints, he made a preemptive move and proposed an additional clause. That is, if Valencia sells Ibrahimovic in the future, Malmo can get 20% of the transfer fee.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;This is obviously more attractive than simply giving 7.8 million US dollars. Not to mention that Valencia's offer is $200,000 higher than Ajax's.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;An extra dollar is a lot.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;By ​​this time, the Malmö club should have already begun to waver, but don't worry, Llorente still has a move.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;After completing the offer, Llorente completed the fatal blow to Malmo-he personally found Ibrahimovic. He directly revealed his identity and told him that Valencia was interested in Ibrahimovic and had already made an offer to Malmo.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Which one attracts more attention, Valencia or Ajax?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Perhaps ten years later, this issue still needs serious consideration. But now there is no suspense, Valencia, who has just reached the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons, has won.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Although Ajax is a giant in the Eredivisie. He also won the European Champions Cup four times, and even won the Champions Cup three times in a row. But after all, it was a long time ago. The last time they won the Champions League was in the last century, the 199495 season.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;The glory of the past is obviously not as convincing as the current achievements.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;La Liga is more famous than the Eredivisie.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;The Dutch League is at best a second-tier league in Europe, while La Liga is the real top league.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Playing in La Liga. It is more helpful to attract the attention of those giants. For Ibrahimovic, this is the biggest highlight.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;He immediately told the club that he would prefer to go to Valencia rather than Ajax, who had been pursuing him for several months.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It happened that Malmö also felt that the conditions offered by Valencia were more attractive.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;So they quickly rejected Ajax's offer and insisted that Ajax raise the offer to more than eight million US dollars.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;And Ajax obviously also received some rumors. They knew that Malmo's sudden decision must be because of the addition of new competitors.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Then, do I want to follow the quotation of eight million dollars?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Ajax finally gave up the offer, they said that it was 7.8 million US dollars, if they disagree, then don't talk about it.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Malmo directly terminated the negotiation and agreed to Valencia's offer.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Valencia can negotiate a personal contract with Ibrahimovic.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;In this way, Changsheng took care of Ibrahimovic again...

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Valencia soon announced that they had successfully signed the talented Swedish teenager Geratan Ibrahimovic.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;However, Valencia did not disclose the transfer fee, nor did Malmö Club.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But don't think that if the clubs don't tell you, the reporters won't know.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Soon there were revelations in the major media, claiming that Valencia spent 8 million dollars to sign the 19-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic!

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;This news once again pushed Chang Sheng to the forefront.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Because of paying such a high transfer fee to a 19-year-old boy who has never proven himself in the mainstream league... the Chinese are out of their minds, right?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Ibrahimovic is indeed a genius, and he was praised by Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;But so what?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;There are many geniuses in this world, but Ibrahimovic is definitely not the kind of genius who can be worth so much money at the age of nineteen!

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Ronaldo moved from Eindhoven to Barcelona when he was 19 years old, worth 19.5 million US dollars, but can Ibrahimovic compare with Ronaldo ?

Andnbp;

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Besides, Valencia already has a high center forward like Carew, as well as forwards like Diego Alonso and Juan Sanchez, plus Angulo and Zahovic They can all play as guest forwards... People don't understand what Chang Sheng spends $8 million on another forward?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Does he have a collection of forwards?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Why didn't you see it in Getafe...

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;※※※

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;"Eight million bought a 19-year-old boy..." Sorel held the newspaper in his hand, shook it, and smiled happily.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Ottie insisted on finding this Changsheng. I didn't expect so many things to come up in less than a month.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Buying a Swedish kid for 8 million makes people wonder if he is suspected of money laundering...

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Soller plans to wait until the season begins to watch Chang Sheng and Otti's jokes.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;When the time comes, the boy Chang Sheng spent so much money on will not perform well, let's see what else he has to say!

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;※※※

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Facing overwhelming criticism from the media, Chang Sheng still did not open his mouth to defend himself. He continued to stay in the Valencia club's head coach's office in Mestalla, issuing instructions one after another .

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;He quickly made it clear why he bought forwards when the team already had so much forward talent.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;What should I do if the striker lineup is bloated?

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;It's very simple, sell it!

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;Soon there were media reports that the agents of Zahovic and Diego Alonso both received calls from Chang Sheng, clearly telling them that their players were not in their plans for the new season and telling them to hurry up Find another home.

&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;&nbp;In order to reduce the burden on the striker, Chang Sheng listed two attacking players in one go! . .
