Super Marshal

Entering July, the European football summer transfer market began to become popular. Almost all teams hope to complete the transfer operation before the training camp, and take advantage of the summer training camp to run the team well and prepare for the new season.

To say that this summer, the most popular superstar in the European transfer market, it is undoubtedly Barcelona's Ronaldinho.

As early as the second half of last season, there were constant media reports in Spain that Ronaldinho’s relationship with Guardiola was not in harmony. One important reason is that Guardiola hopes that the Brazilian superstar can invest in the former. The court is pressing, but this is obviously not in line with Ronaldinho's playing style.

But later, as Barcelona continued to win, the Champions League was like a break, and finally even set the league, the cup and the Champions League triple crown. Many fans felt that the relationship between Guardiola and Ronaldinho might have All the better.

But in fact, the wish is very good, but it does not meet reality.

As early as during the European Cup, news continued to point out that Barcelona intends to sell Ronaldinho, and the latter also kept releasing news through their agents, expressing their intention to leave Barcelona. This news immediately caused a huge impact in the transfer market. repercussions.

First, the chief executive of the Premier League Chelsea, Peter Kenyon, first disclosed that Chelsea intends to buy back Ronaldinho.

Coach Rijkaard also said that no team can reject a superstar like Ronaldinho.

But when the news was just released, Ronaldinho’s agent and brother revealed to the public that it would be difficult for his brother to return to Stamford Bridge. “We are very chilled by the way Chelsea handle things. "

This also angered Chelsea. Peter Kenyon immediately came forward to clarify that he had never said that he would introduce Ronaldinho. The real goals of the Blues were Real Madrid’s Robinho and Atletico Madrid’s. Arshavin.

"I doubt very much whether Ronaldinho can still play in the Premier League. On the contrary, it is Robinho and Arshavin. We are more optimistic about the development of these two players, especially the latter. He is no better than Ronaldi. Neo is inferior."

At the same time, Robinho was dissatisfied with Real Madrid's attitude towards him and his hesitation in renewing his contract. He began to put pressure on him and said he did not rule out leaving Real Madrid.

The Russian media also broke the news that Arshavin accepted Abramovich's banquet in Moscow, and the czar who shined in the European Cup is likely to switch to Chelsea this summer.

The famous Spanish columnist Javier Matayana also stated in the column that Atletico Madrid is seriously considering the offer of the giants to Arshavin.

"There is no doubt that Atletico Madrid's management must make a choice. With the financial situation of the team, it is impossible to meet Arshavin's contract renewal requirements, and in order to build a new stadium, the Linen Corps must sell players to raise funds."

"The three players of Villa, Torres and Arshavin have been invited by the major European teams. It is difficult for the team to keep all of them. Hill must make a choice as soon as possible in the shortest time."

All the fans of the Sheets Corps also know that the team needs a new stadium, which is the cornerstone of long-term development, but now they have to sell one, or even two fans, favorite stars, which is also very cruel. reality.

Because they are not giants, it is impossible to keep all the players.

Especially in the case of Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid and other teams desperately waving their checkbooks.

After Gao Han returned to Europe, he did not return to Munich for the first time, but went to Madrid first.

In the administrative office of the Chinatown Youth Training Center in Fuenlabrada, Jorge Mendes, who had returned to Europe a few days earlier, received news of the European transfer market, and he felt very helpless.

"Since the Bosman Act, the mobility of professional players has become very frequent, especially in recent years, a large influx of funds has made a professional player, especially an excellent professional player, want to be more than one. The team has become a very difficult, even extravagant thing."

As an old fritters in European football, Jorge Mendes has a thorough view of this phenomenon.

Fans like to talk about feelings and feelings, but in European football where capital operations are dominant, these are too extravagant.

Gao Han also understood the truth, but his heart was still a little sour.

After all, Atletico Madrid was brought out by his own hands. These years have been selling people, one after another, and now it is finally sold to the heads of the famous stars Villa and Torres. Can he not feel sad?

But he absolutely supports Cerezo and Hill's approach. Although emotionally speaking, this is very uncomfortable, but from the perspective of the club's long-term development, it must be done.

Take a look at Wenger, how many years did he save money to build a new stadium? How many captains did you sell?

Atletico Madrid's safest management strategy now is to maintain the strength of the Champions League quarterfinals and sell people in exchange for funds. After the new stadium is completed, the club's finances have improved. After a few years of accumulation, it will usher in a full-scale outbreak.

At that time, the Sheets Corps were the real La Liga giants.

"As the outside media said, over the years, you have left a new stadium for Atletico Madrid, an inexhaustible treasure trove of youth training, so ah, sometimes the eyes of the fans are very discerning." Mendes Said politely and comforted.

Gao Han is noncommittal about these false names. He is just a head coach and has no way of managing the club.

The only thing that makes him more gratified is that the Chinatown team has upgraded again.

The current Chinatown team is already a team in the Western Division II.

In the Chinatown team, players such as Tu Feiyuan and Xiao Mu from the Alpine team are still there. Most of them are engaged in administrative management, but some have also transformed into youth coaches, such as Xiao Mu.

In the first season after Pochettino took office, the team's performance in the third level league was impressive. The play style is very cold and leading the team. Coupled with the player strength advantage, it can almost be in the third level league. Said to be invincible.

But the Second Division is the watershed of the Spanish professional league.

According to the Spanish league system, La Liga and La Liga are managed by the Spanish Professional Football League, and other leagues are managed by the Spanish Football Association. Therefore, in a strict sense, La Liga and La Liga are truly professional leagues.

After entering the second league, Chinatown has become the sixth professional league team in Madrid after Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Valladolid, Getafe and Vallecano. It is also the only team in Fuenlabrada. A team that enters the second tier of the league.

So this summer, the team won the strong support of the Fuenlabrada municipal government, and at the same time it is also attracting investment in the surrounding areas.

Responsible for the team's investment operation, it was Mendes recommended to Gao Han half a year ago, the 41-year-old operating director, Portuguese Armando Marcos.

According to Mendes's introduction, Max has served as the head of the commercial department for a number of Portuguese Super League teams. He is not only very familiar with the football environment of the entire Iberian Peninsula, but also has a good hand in investment and operation.

At the beginning, Gao Han scanned it with fiery eyes and found that although he was not well-known, his ability to run a team reached a full value of 20, and his ability to negotiate player purchases reached 18, which can be said to be a very good management. Talent, and he himself is a very professional ethics person.

Therefore, Gao Han has no doubt about employing people and directly appoints him as the general manager of the team, with full responsibility for operation and operation.

Half a year has passed, Armando Marcos has done quite well for the Chinatown team, especially in this summer, he has won many sponsorships for the team early, and at the same time, in the negotiation with the existing sponsors, It also won the greatest benefit for the Chinatown team and brought the team a huge financial income.

But this is still not enough to support a West Second team.

Therefore, Gao Han came today just to talk about the upcoming new season.

"Western Division II is not comparable to the third-tier league, and the level of competition is not at the same level. Therefore, the team must be fully psychologically prepared. I am afraid it will be difficult for us to upgrade every year as we did in the past."

In his early years, Gao Han coached the low-level and second-tier leagues, and he is very clear about the degree of competition in the second-tier leagues.

The Chinatown team has been upgraded every year, and it has indeed attracted the attention of fans from Spain and even the world, but the foundation is not strong.

The simplest, the team's stadium is rented by the government, the training base has not been fully completed, and many players in the team are also rented by other teams such as Atletico Madrid.

It can even be said that the Chinatown team is a little bit stronger than the others.

Gao Han is very clear about the Spanish League. This model can still be played in the low-level leagues and even in the West Second League, provided that the goal of the Chinatown team is only to relegation.

But if the team wants to have a more long-term development, then it can only take the path of self-improvement.

In other words, you can no longer rely too much on players loaned from other teams, either vigorously promote your own youth training, or increase signings.

"In the past season, the team promoted De Gea, Eden Hazard and Yordi Alba to the first team and played a lot of games. The coaching staff contributed a lot."

Gao Han looked at Pochettino with appreciation. The Argentine coach has indeed promoted and cultivated many players in the past season.

Needless to say, the players on loan are the objects of the Chinatown team. In the youth training of this team ~www.NovelMTL.com~ De Gea is already the main goalkeeper, and Jordi Alba has also stood firm. The main force of the left back, Eden Hazard also established his main position in the second half of the season, and the performance of these three players was satisfactory.

"But this season, we will continue to increase the promotion and training of young players. Carvajal, Isco and Cork are all qualified and capable of entering the first team. They should be given more opportunities as appropriate." Gao Han asked. Tao.

Pochettino nodded, he still trusted Gao Han's eyesight.

The facts have also proved that the players Gao Han recommended to him are basically very powerful.

"However, we also need to strengthen in multiple positions, especially in the case of reducing the number of players on loan." Pochettino put forward his own opinions.

Gao Han nodded and immediately looked at General Manager Marcos, "Almodo, how much transfer budget can the team give this summer?"

Amodo Marcos shook his head and said, "Although we have negotiated new contracts with a number of sponsors, they are all income for the next year or two. If we want to withdraw funds this summer, I am afraid..."

After a pause, the Portuguese continued: "Furthermore, according to my rough estimate, although our income has increased, our expenditures have also increased, especially in terms of player salaries. In addition, we also need a stadium rent and an annual fee. Maintenance costs, after entering the second league, the team’s away expenses will also be relatively higher."

The more Gao Han heard it, the tighter his brows wrinkled, especially when he heard that at the end, his general manager almost wrote the word "no money" on his face.

However, it is not surprising.

In the final analysis, the Chinatown team is a newly promoted team, upgraded every year, without any background.

These days, dark horses are not so good.
