Chapter 616 Reaching the Top

"Aha, Peter, why did you think of calling me?"

Yang Huan answered the phone with a smile, and waved his hands to Kesh Harris and Pini Zahavi who were under the umbrella, and walked out directly, obviously wanting to go far away to talk on the phone.

The two people under the parasol looked dumbfounded. Don't you want to bask in such a big sun?
But looking at Young Master Huan's tanned and shiny skin, they couldn't help but sigh, these rich people really know how to play!

"Master Huan, you're not here, we can't handle many things!"

Peter Kenyon complained on the phone.

As one can imagine, he and Ron Gurley must have been annoyed a lot recently.

And it must be that kind of trouble!

"Let's hear it, what's the situation?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.

"Real Madrid and Barcelona both agreed to the conditions we offered and offered high prices!"

Southampton's conditions are actually not many, such as the sponsorship contract signed by the players before, after the transfer, the new club still admits it, which can reduce Southampton's losses caused by player transfers.

For a top superstar like Neymar, this clause is either big or small.

However, it can be seen that both Real Madrid and Barcelona are determined to win this player.

"What price did they quote?" Yang Huan asked again.

"Real Madrid offered a high price of 6000 million euros, but asked to give them two years to pay in installments."

It's normal for Yang Huan to laugh when he heard this.

Even though Florentino has quite extensive contacts in the Spanish banking industry, is there any bank that can casually spend 6000 million euros to transfer Real Madrid?
Two years is actually quite kind.

Before Chelsea introduced Torres, it was said that it was 5000 million pounds, but it was divided into five years. What happened?
Torres encountered Waterloo at Chelsea and became a downright parallel importer. Now the Blues are planning to sell Torres.

But the players on this side have to be sold, and the transfer fee to Liverpool has to continue to be paid on the other side.

This is the basic mode of European team transfer operation at this stage!
That's why Yang Huan said that today's professional football has completely become the master of capital operations!

"Where's Barcelona?" Yang Huan asked with interest.

He didn't believe that if Real Madrid offered such a high price, would Barcelona follow suit?

"Barcelona doesn't have that much money. Russell intends to properly restructure the team lineup, so the condition they offer is the model of players plus cash, and they promise that it will only be divided into two years."

After hearing this, Yang Huan burst out laughing, "Do they have that much money?"

In two years?
Even if you add cash to your players, can you get so much money from Barcelona?
Yang Huan is not unaware of Rosell's reorganization plan, but core players such as Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, and Pique cannot be moved. Therefore, it is basically Alves, Fabregas, Villa, Sanchez and other players.

But how much are these players worth?

Add it all up, I'm afraid it's not thick enough for Neymar's thigh!

"Neymar's father came to Southampton two days ago and had an in-depth talk with me. He said that the players will respect the club's choice, but personally prefer Barcelona."

"Oh?" Yang Huan understood after thinking about it.

In this, sponsors must play a key role, and it is likely that they have promised more benefits to players.

To be honest, this matter is really a headache.

At least, it is still difficult to deal with it in such a way that all aspects are not offended.

"Peter, what do you think?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.

This is how he is. There must be troubles, but there is no need to be unhappy.

No matter how many troubles there are, there will always be a day to solve them!
"I personally think that the price has basically reached the peak. Whether it is Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​​​it is estimated that there will be no more price increases, but the way Barcelona's players add cash has more room to operate."

"Oh?"

"Bielsa talked to me. Now that Barcelona and Real Madrid are chasing Neymar, Manchester City is flirting with Gareth Bale. The team is likely to face the result of losing two wing superstars in one summer."

"En!" Yang Huan nodded.

He was also mentally prepared for this.

With the current talent pool of Southampton, it is completely manageable.

Neymar's position, with Hazard coming up, is not a big problem at all.

As for the right, Ravel Morrison, Sturridge and James Rodriguez are also fully capable of topping.

And the team also introduced a very comprehensive Suarez who can play in the middle and on the wing.

From this point of view, Southampton's overall offensive power has not declined much.

"Belsa believes that Suarez's position is in the middle, and it is a pity for Sturridge to play on the wing. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one year older, so he will try more in the new season, so he proposed to introduce another winger."

Yang Huan frowned, "Alexis Sanchez?"

"Well, this player is Bielsa's favorite player when he coached the Chilean national team. He knows him very well and thinks that he has not played his best in Barcelona, ​​so he wants to bring him to the Premier League."

In fact, Southampton wanted to introduce Alexis Sanchez for a long time, but the Chilean was more willing to go to Barcelona at that time.

If Bielsa really wants to get Sanchez, it is indeed inclined to Barcelona, ​​which is more cost-effective for Southampton.

"What do you think?" Yang Huan asked again.

After all, he has not been familiar with the European transfer market in the past month or so.

"Gareth Bale's agent made a condition, either to renew the contract with a weekly salary of 25 pounds, or let them transfer to Manchester City. I discussed it with Ron and Bielsa. We agreed that it was sold!"

A stern look flashed across Yang Huan's eyes.

From the first time he met Gareth Bale's agent, he'd had a hard time seeing them.

Needless to say, the score is too big, but also greedy!
Southampton won the Triple Crown this season, and Yang Huan paid out more than 1 million pounds in bonuses alone. Gareth Bale also got a lot, and his agent also benefited, but the result?
As soon as he turned around, he immediately hooked up with Manchester City and flirted with each other.

For this reason, Mubarak also took the initiative to call Yang Huan to clarify that it was Gareth Bell's agent who came to him on his own initiative.

Too unkind!
Yang Huan felt that Neymar also wanted to leave, but at least he handled it smarter and more nostalgic.

Therefore, Southampton and Miracle Media will continue to cooperate with Neymar in the future.

As for Gareth Bale, who could stand such a fuss?

"Our opinion is to sell Neymar to Barcelona, ​​bring in Alexis Sanchez, and then sell Gareth Bale. In this way, the team's entire attacking lineup will not be worse than last season!"

Maybe he didn't hear Yang Huan's voice, Peter Kenyon added.

"According to Bielsa's previous plan, in the long run, Suarez and Hazard are the future of the team. Sturridge and Ravel Morrison are also important members of the team. If Alexis Sanchez is introduced again, our entire frontcourt players will be very compatible in terms of personal ability and technical characteristics!"

When Yang Huan heard this, his eyes brightened.

Needless to say, Suarez and Hazard are young, have super personal abilities, and are the type who can pass, shoot and control.

Sturridge and Lavelle Morrison are also of this type.

If you add another Alexis Sanchez of the same type, the entire Southampton frontcourt will be against the sky.

With a good combination, it is completely possible to combine a set of super attacking lineup for brushing data.

On the contrary, like now, Ibrahimovic's personal ability is super strong. Under the training of Bielsa, the overall effect is also good. Neymar can pass, shoot and control, but Gareth Bale's characteristics are single.

In this case, Southampton's trident seems to be very strong, but its potential is actually very limited.

On the contrary, Bielsa's proposal is completely in line with Bielsa's previous tactical plan for Southampton.

Even, if the Devil Wings insisted on choosing one or the other, it would be to keep Neymar, not Gareth Bale.

"Okay, very good!" Yang Huan thought of this, and immediately praised him loudly.

"I will leave this matter to you."

Peter Kenyon nodded at once.

As long as they get the nod from Master Huan, they can go ahead and do it boldly.

"However, there is one thing we must pay attention to!" Yang Huan suddenly thought of it and reminded him.

"Master Huan, please tell me!"

"Alexis Sanchez's performance in Barcelona is not satisfactory, so, in terms of transfer fee...you know what to do!" Yang Huan said with a smile.

Peter Kenyon also immediately nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, I understand!"

According to Barcelona's original contract for introducing Alexis Sanchez, in addition to the transfer fee, there are additional clauses later. According to preliminary estimates, Barcelona should have paid more than 500 million euros.

But looking at Alexis Sanchez's performance in Barcelona, ​​Southampton would be a bit at a loss if they paid the money again.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, such additional players must be cheaper.

Otherwise, if you have the ability, you can take cash!
You don't have cash, and you still want to buy my players, get the hell out of here!

"Oh, by the way, Master Huan, Bayern Munich asked us about Vidal's price."

When Yang Huan heard this, his eyelids twitched for no reason.

Damn, Vidal is being targeted?
It has to be said that the performance of the Chilean midfielder in Southampton is quite eye-catching.

Although he does not have the organization and pass control ability of Modric and Toni Kroos, his running coverage, scoring and defensive contributions are quite eye-catching.

With him, Southampton's midfield has enough hardness!

This is also the reason why Southampton would rather sell Strowman than keep Vidal.

But the problem is that Vidal's performance last season was so eye-catching, and the statistics were so strong that they all attracted the attention of the rich teams.

If Real Madrid hadn't been fully operating Neymar, they might have attacked Vidal long ago.

Also interested in Vidal are Manchester United and Chelsea, but they dare not make an offer.

Who doesn't know that Southampton's players are superior and there are almost no parallel imports?

But the problem is, the transfer fee is high!
Since Bayern Munich dared to ask the price, it must have prepared a generous transfer fee and waited.

Thinking of this, Yang Huan couldn't help shaking his head.

Damn Xipi, she managed to perform well for a whole season, and yet she was poached everywhere, and still let her live?

"What did Bielsa say?" Yang Huan asked with a sigh.

"Pogba is still immature and does not have the ability to be independent for the time being. If Matic is involved, it is also feasible, but..."

Yang Huan knew what was going on in his heart.

It can be seen that now is not the time for Dahl!

"Go talk to Vidal and try to keep him, if it doesn't work, let's talk!"

In the end, Yang Huan still couldn't say the words, sell it and forget it.

The key point is that Vidal is very important to Southampton's midfield balance.

Moreover, in the current transfer market, it is not easy to introduce such a player with both offensive and defensive skills.

It's better to stay for another year and try our best to train Pogba to succeed.

"Well, okay, I see!"

After speaking, Peter Kenyon hung up the phone.
