Chapter 214 The Croatian International

On June 26, Empoli officially announced 500 million euros to package Parma central defender Kohli and left back Pochetti.

On June 27, the Grosseto Football Club in the Italian second division announced the appointment of a new head coach. This gentleman is none other than the former Parma 'coach' Pioli.Immediately afterwards, Grosseto Football Club officially announced that it had bought Parma's second goalkeeper De Lucia for 50 euros.

Shortly after Empoli's official announcement, Parma also announced a press conference.

At the press conference, Li Wei announced that from today onwards, Parma will not sell any player in the first team for more than 90.00% this summer, unless the other party offers a price higher than the market price times the transfer fee, there is such a [-]% chance that another first-team player will leave.

The reporters were surprised that the Parma supermarket closed so soon, but after the reporters went back to check Parma's current first-team roster, they suddenly realized.

As of today, Parma's first team has been poached to only 14 people left.

Among the three fronts, the front line was dug the most. The Black Crusade striker that once ruled Europe is now only Hulk, who was bought from Japan by Li Weidong.

In the midfield, including the young player Chigalini who returned from loan, there are only five players left in Parma.

The only thing that is well preserved is the defense line, which caused headaches for giants such as AC Milan and Inter Milan in the second half of last season. There are only substitute center back Kohli, substitute left back Pochetti and substitute goalkeeper De Lucia The three leave.Because all three are substitutes, their departure has little impact on the team's defense.

"Palma Daily" even declared in the headlines on the second day "Parma's best signings in the summer of 07: goalkeeper, defender!" "The report claimed that although Parma has not yet bought, they have successfully retained goalkeeper Handanovic, central defender Chiellini, Bonucci and others, which is already Parma's best signing this summer.

This summer is a sad summer for Parma fans. They don't understand why their team has become a double champion and league runner-up, but the result is not much different from last season's summer. The stars are all divided up seven to eighty-eight.

Some extreme fans even burned the 'Levi T-shirt' and Levi's comic head portrait just launched by the Parma club outside the Collezio training base to express their dissatisfaction with Levi's selling people.

This incident made Li Wei secretly make a decision.

He found his confidant Johann Wolfgang and secretly arranged him a mission.

This season, Parma has been very quick in terms of transfers, but it is still zero in terms of transfers.

Of course, if the youth training teenager Chigarini who returned on loan can be regarded as a transfer, then Parma has still transferred a new player.

After the press conference, Levi hurried to the airport. The destination of the plane this time was - Switzerland!
This time Li Wei's target is Croatian international Ivan Rakitic.

Although the 19-year-old Rakitic is a Croatian international, he was born and lived in Switzerland. However, because his father is Croatian, he has Swiss and Croatian citizenship. Before 2007, Rakitic He has been playing for the Swiss youth teams at all levels in the European arena for many years, but in 2007 he decided to represent the Croatian national team. For this reason, he even received death threats from extreme Swiss fans.

This also led to Rakitic's decision to leave Switzerland in order to protect himself and his family.

Although Rakitic is only 19 years old, he has already shown his talent. Before Levi went to Switzerland, Rakitic had already received invitations from Premier League, Bundesliga and Serie A teams.

Among them, in addition to Parma in Serie A, Inter Milan is also interested in Rakitic.

One of the official languages ​​​​of Switzerland is Italian, and Switzerland and Italy border each other. The weather and environment of the two sides are relatively close. After Swiss players arrive in Italy, they can accept and integrate faster.

However, at present, the closest to Rakitic is not Inter Milan, nor Parma, but the German team Schalke 04. According to the news sent back by the scouts sent by Levi to Switzerland, Rakitic is already close to Schalke. Gram 04 signed.

In order to convince this future Barcelona No. 4, Levi went to Switzerland to contact the other side in person.

Rakitic was a little flattered by Levi's arrival.

The current Li Wei is no longer the unnamed, or despised and jealous chairman of the past.He was praised by the European media, and some media already believed that Levi would become a legend of Parma, similar to Shankly of Liverpool and Ferguson of Manchester United.

Levi persuaded Rakitic with his sincerity, of course, the role of money is naturally indispensable.In modern football, if you simply talk about your feelings with players, it is difficult to convince them.

Li Wei gave Rakitic an annual salary of 100 million. At the same time, in order to beat Schalke 04, Parma paid a transfer fee of 550 million euros to the Swiss giants Basel.

Rakitic will wear the No. [-] jersey for Parma in the new season.

After completing the transfer of Rakitic, Li Wei turned into a trapeze again. This time he came to Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, with the goal of Mario Mandzukic who played for NK Zagreb.

Fans will definitely be familiar with this name, the Croatian international can be said to be the most famous footballer in Croatia in the future.

Although he did not win any top league golden boots in his professional career until 2016, and his best result was the silver boots of the Bundesliga in the 2013-14 season, no one can deny that this Croatian is a An excellent striker.

He can score goals in offense, and he is not stingy in fighting when defending.For this reason, he once played for Atletico Madrid in a season, and was shown nine yellow cards by the referee in the league. As a striker, such a number of cards is a bit staggering.

Take Mandzukic's teammate Godin's data at Atletico Madrid as a comparison. Godin's season with the most cards at Atletico Madrid was eleven yellow cards.This shows how hard Mandzukic was in the game.

Mandzukic is very valued by Levi. Levi has always hoped that his team will have a defensive forward similar to Liverpool's Dirk, who can form the first line of defense in the opponent's frontcourt.

And now Li Wei can realize his little wish.
