"3000 million!"

"3000 million?" Florentino jumped up immediately.

"Master Huan, aren't you? We spent 3000 million yuan to introduce Di Maria. You are still paying this price, isn't it sincere? Is it true that you are the best player in the Champions League final?"

"Uh... Florentino, I'm talking about pounds!"

"Pounds? Oh, I thought you were talking about Euros! But even in Pounds, we can't possibly sell them!"

"Thirty-five million... pounds!"

"No, not for sale!"

"Sixty million pounds!"

"Master Huan, who are we and what status are we? When negotiating the price, can we be a little bolder, don't add 500 million to 500 million, it will make people think it's a drop in price!"

"Fuck, you didn't spend your own money, of course you can't drop the price, but I spent all my hard-earned hard-earned money, can you not care about it? If it weren't for my diligence and frugality on weekdays, I would like to spend a pound in half, would there be the current situation in Southampton?"

"Er... Anyway, anyway, not for sale, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless you trade Suarez!"

"Fuck me, you want Di Maria for Suarez? You are so beautiful!"

"I can always add money!"

"More money? I don't have anything else, the only thing is more money!"

"Uh, Master Huan, just now who said that he wanted to spend a pound in half, but now he says he has a lot of money, isn't that too much?"

"You don't care about me!"

"In this way, Master Huan, I'll add another 3000 million euros to you for Suarez!"

"No, it's absolutely impossible, don't talk about it!"

"Then it's okay to change Toni Kroos?"

"Tony Cross? Damn, you kid is still eyeing our commander!"

"Hey, there is no way. Xavi Alonso is getting old, so he has to find a successor quickly. Toni Kroos is good. He is handsome. After training in the Premier League, his defense has also been greatly improved. He has both offense and defense. I think it will work!"

"You think it's okay, I don't think so? Even if you add money to Di Maria, I won't change it!"

"Hey, Master Huan, then you are too outrageous, can we have a good talk?"

"In short, Suarez and Toni Kroos are not for sale!"

"Uh, Master Huan, I remember you said that there are no non-sale products these days, it just depends on whether the price you offer is high enough!"

"Did I say so?"

"Said!"

"You must have heard wrong!"

"You...Okay, then I will change Modric, is it okay?"

"Modric? I said, Florentino, are you really, what the hell, the players in my team, who else is not under your eye?"

"Hey, don't be angry, don't be angry, Master Huan, this proves that Southampton has a high ability to operate players, and the players are strong. Others like Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, etc. I don't like their players!"

"Can you stop making it sound like I should be grateful to you if you like my player?"

"Just kidding, Master Huan, Di Maria for Modric!"

"You are so beautiful, do you know how rare and precious a midfielder like Modric is? You exchange Di Maria for my Modric. Do you think your Di Maria is very valuable? Isn't it just playing a few good games?"

"Uh, Master Huan, you said you wanted to buy it..."

"But it's not to the point of exchanging Modric!"

"I'll add money!"

"Add money?"

"I know that Chelsea made an offer not long ago, willing to buy Modric for 5000 million pounds, but you rejected it, so I will add money, 2000 million euros, Di Maria for Modric!"

"This one……"

"Master Huan, Modric is 29 years old, but Di Maria is only 26 years old, and he is in his prime. It's a good deal!"

"I wipe it, it's so cheap for me? Then you are so stupid, take it out and exchange it?"

"Uh, isn't this because we have a lot of explosive players like Di Maria in our team, but we are in urgent need of a controlling player like Modric?"

"Is that so..."

"Twenty-five million euros, a one-buy price, Di Maria for Modric!"

"you……"

"3000 million euros, no more!"

"I'm crying, Florentino, who said just now, don't add 500 to 500? My young master at least uses British pounds, but you fucking use euros. Can we stop dropping the price like this?"

"Hey, Master Huan, don't I have no money? I owed you a lot of money last year, and I have to sign up again this summer. We need to save some money, right? 3000 million euros, in cash!"

Seeing Florentino hit the iron while the iron was hot and add more chips again, Yang Huan was really a little tempted.

To say that Modric is indeed the kind of controlling midfielder that is very scarce in European football at the moment, but the problem is that Southampton does not lack this type of player, especially Hazard who is very good at controlling the organization in the frontcourt.

On the contrary, Di Maria, this kind of explosive player with exquisite skills and willing to put down his body to run and defend, is exactly the type that Southampton currently needs.

But there is another problem, that is, if Modric is gone, even if Di Maria is exchanged, how can the pass be adjusted?
However, when it came to passing the ball, Yang Huan thought of someone.

When Florentino saw Yang Huan's smiling expression, he immediately knew that there was something to be done about the deal.

"Master Huan, how is it? Can we talk?"

Real Madrid is now relying on Xavi Alonso to support the midfield. Although Vidal has both offense and defense, his contribution is very small in the middle of offense and defense. Therefore, Xavi Alonso is very important.

The introduction of Toni Kroos is more to succeed Harvey Alonso, but the introduction of Modric is to share the pressure of Harvey Alonso and improve Real Madrid's midfield strength.

"I'll think about it!" Yang Huan didn't agree on the spot either.

Just at this time, the first half of the game was over, and the two sides returned to the locker room with a score of one to one.

The whole first half was very exciting, Southampton and Real Madrid each scored a goal, but for the Saints, this goal is very important because the Saints are playing away.

Therefore, Yang Huan's mood is not bad, not too bad.

Taking advantage of the intermission, Yang Huan found a reason, left the chairman's stand, entered the VIP rest area, found a quiet place, and called Marcus du Sartoy in Southampton.

"Marcus, are Ramon and Jorge with you?" Yang Huan asked.

"Yes! Master Huan, in fact, we played quite well in the first half. Real Madrid's strength is not weak. It is reasonable to be able to equalize the score. Moreover, we have passed the analysis report to the coaching staff. I believe they should take countermeasures soon."

Marcus du Satoy thought that Yang Huan was worried about the progress of the game.

This is not surprising, because this season is the first time Southampton has reached the Champions League, and now it is the quarter-finals.

It can be said that every step that Southampton is taking now is creating the history of England South Coast Football Club.

Not only Southampton, but even the entire English football world, are paying attention to this Saints team.

Yang Huan knew that the other party would misunderstand, but he didn't bother to explain, "It's good if you are here, you can help me research now, if I replace Modric with Di Maria, what will the effect be?"

"Di Maria for Modric?" Marcus du Satoy on the phone was a little surprised.

This Di Maria has been really popular recently, especially in the Champions League final last season, his performance made him famous in one fell swoop, and he has become a first-tier European star, even a superstar.

Judging from the performance of this season, the player Di Maria played as a midfielder is indeed a transformation.

At least, in the central midfielder under Ancelotti's tactical system, Di Maria fully utilized his advantages.

"Someone wants to exchange 3000 million euros for Gadí Maria for Modric. I have to think about it. Is it worthwhile!"

"Di Maria plus 3000 million euros?" Marcus du Satoy was also a little surprised.

"That's something to think about carefully!"

Obviously, he also felt that this was an offer worth considering.

When Yang Huan hung up the phone, there was a burst of clicking keyboards on the phone. It should be a tactical deduction on the computer system. At the same time, there were many people discussing and even arguing over there.

About 10 minutes later, Yang Huan received their reply.

"Master Huan, we generally believe that the arrival of Di Maria will greatly activate Hazard in the frontcourt and even the entire Trident, but once we decide to do so, James Rodriguez may be in an awkward situation, and we need to arrange a player who can help Toni Kroos in another position in the midfield."

In Southampton's tactical system, James Rodriguez is considered a No. [-] attacking midfielder, but his defensive attitude is very active, and he often retreats to participate in defense, but when attacking, he must go to the front.

And if Di Maria comes, James Rodriguez will definitely be affected.

"Master Huan, you also know that we have always believed that there is always a problem of ball distribution between James Rodriguez and Hazard, but Di Maria and Hazard do not have such a problem."

"And the technical characteristics of this Argentine player will also greatly enrich the team's offensive methods. His contribution on the defensive end is also quite good. However, the hidden danger lies in his thin body, but you also know that usually physical problems are not a problem for us!"

What Southampton is most sure of is improving the physical fitness of the players, which is a strength that the Saints have invested in for many years.

Yang Huan knew it well, thought about it, and then proposed another plan.

That is to take James Rodriguez, replace another midfielder, and let the technical team figure it out.

As a result, this time, the answer was given within 5 minutes.

"Master Huan, the answer we got is that our offense will be a level stronger than it is now, and our defense will at least maintain the current level, but it may also be better."

Yang Huan was right, it really was like this!

In the last set of plans, Southampton used Toni Kroos as a single midfielder.

But as Bielsa said in his theory, the hardness of defense does not depend on individual players, but on the team as a whole.

The defense of the midfield also does not depend on whether you are a single midfielder or a double midfielder, but depends on your entire midfield.

Therefore, although Barcelona play a single midfielder, their entire defense is very solid, which is the reason.

Another reason is that the strongest defense is offense.

When a team reaches a certain level of strength, offense is the best defense.

Among other things, if the players are there, it is impossible for the opponent not to invest troops to defend.

Yang Huan thought of this, and smiled slightly, "Okay, you guys should follow the set of plans I gave you to study and study, and quickly give a report. I'll talk to Bielsa later, and if it's feasible, we'll do it right away!"

Just kidding, if it works well, then Southampton is bound to change the gun again. Without investing a penny, it can improve the team's entire midfield.

Where can I find such a good thing?
