Chapter 1421 Paris Tragedy
The more prosperous the summer transfer, the more depressed the winter transfer.

Real Madrid was banned from signing, Barcelona did not move, and Atletico Madrid also had no plans in this regard.

There was no movement in the top three of La Liga, so the biggest transfer in La Liga happened to Real Sociedad. They introduced Rulli from Manchester City for 700 million euros.

However, the team that invested the most was Sevilla.

The team currently ranked second in La Liga is obviously looking forward to the second half of the season. During the winter break, they introduced two players, namely Walter Montoya from Rosario, Argentina, and Lenglet from Nancy, France. The two players cost Sevilla 50 million euros, becoming the team that invested the most in La Liga during the winter break.

Villarreal is the team with the most income. They transferred Brazilian striker Pato to the Chinese Super League Tianjin team and earned 800 million euros.

By the way, the entire European football world is now paying attention to the Chinese Super League, because the purchasing power of this league is really amazing, but from another perspective, this may not be a good phenomenon.

It is not uncommon for the Chinese Super League to snap up stars like this in the past. For example, leagues such as Ukraine, Russia, and Turkey have experienced such a wave of upsurges.

But the problem is that the final result is obvious. After a few years, these teams have disappeared.

How many people still recognize Hulk and Witsel, who switched from the Portuguese Super League to Russia at a high price?

Eto'o moved to Turkey with a sky-high annual salary, but in the end he returned to the four major leagues.

Professional football cannot be played just by burning money. Otherwise, how to explain Valencia, which burned so much money, almost fell into the relegation zone in the end?
Let me ask, if Valencia is playing like this, can the Chinese Super League team play well?
In Yang Yang's view, this is not necessarily a good thing at all, because when the local tyrants in the Chinese Super League burn money like crazy, the entire Chinese football market will quickly become hot. This can certainly bring fans and popularity, but the problem is that it is not sustainable, and it is easy to cause the value and annual salary of domestic players to soar.

In the summer of 2000, the transfer fee of international footballer Zhang Chengdong was as high as [-] million euros, which was comparable to that of a famous Premier League star like Schneiderlin. Who dares to say that there is no false high in it?

What about the annual salary?The player's transfer fee is inflated, but the annual salary is not inflated?
Once the annual salary is hyped up, it doesn't matter if the local tycoon teams who are not short of money or don't care about investing in it don't matter, but how can other teams in the middle and lower reaches, even low-level leagues, survive?
The football environment in the middle and lower leagues is already very bad. If the annual salary and transfer fee are inflated again, can they survive?Will there be any problems in the end?

Before, Yang Yang never thought about these issues because he was just a player and he had no experience in this area, but now that he has acquired Ajax and started to get involved in club management, he has begun to learn more.

When everyone thinks that local teams such as Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain have brought hot money, when everyone thinks that the Premier League broadcast fee is rising steadily, and the transfer market is booming, Ajax's survival is becoming increasingly difficult.

Professional football is pyramid-shaped, but the top team has a completely different way of survival from the middle team, or the bottom team. As the helm, the Football Association and the Chinese Super League should stand up and take precautions.

Yang Yang has conveyed his own understanding, some thoughts, and his exchange experience with Florentino, UEFA and FIFA executives to the Football Association. As for whether they will listen to it or not, and what they plan to do, it is beyond Yang Yang's control.

Yang Yang's father Yang Yongqiang's business has become more and more prosperous in recent years. The sports shoe brand he manages has become one of the top three well-known brands in China, and he has begun to acquire aggressively internationally to build his own brand matrix.

After Yang Yang invested in Ajax, he wanted to bring Ajax's youth training to China. Wei Zheng is currently communicating with Yang Yongqiang and the local government of Yang Yang's hometown in China, hoping to establish an Ajax youth training base in his hometown, transplant Ajax's youth training system in its entirety, and build the top and most professional youth training base in China.

It is said that the current progress is gratifying, and if the negotiation is settled, Yang Yang can be considered to have fulfilled another wish.

…………

The first game in February is the Copa del Rey semi-final.

Real Madrid sits at home against Alaves.

This time, the Galaxy Battleship sent its main force to fight in order to defeat the opponent.

In the No. 30 minute of the first half, Hazard assisted Yang Yang to score a goal, but only 3 minutes later, Alaves left back, 19-year-old Spanish native Teo Hernandez pulled a game back for Alaves.

This player was loaned to Alaves by Atletico Madrid. He performed very well and was also targeted by the Real Madrid technical team. Valdano also mentioned this player in the core high-level meeting before. It seems that Real Madrid is very interested.

After changing sides in the second half, Yang Yang reciprocated and sent out two consecutive assists, assisting Hazard and Suarez to score successively. In the end, Real Madrid defeated Alaves [-]-[-] at home.

…………

…………

Three days later, in the No.20 round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Celta Vigo away.

Due to successive torrential rains, Celta Vigo's Baledos Stadium and La Coruña's Riazor Stadium have both suffered stadium damage accidents, posing safety hazards. The latter was unable to play the game and was forced to postpone it, but Real Madrid was obviously unwilling to do so.

First proposed to change to a neutral stadium, but did not get the consent of Celta Vigo, then Real Madrid asked to postpone instead of choosing another day to make up the match, and finally got the consent of La Liga.

After all, Real Madrid fights on multiple lines, and the pressure of the game is also very high. If one is not careful and postpones to a time when the schedule is intensive, it will definitely not be a good thing for Real Madrid.

No one knows what kind of schedule and situation they will encounter next, right?
Therefore, what Real Madrid wants most is to play the game as soon as possible while the team is still organized, the state is not bad, and the schedule is not too dense.

A day later, Real Madrid beat Celta Vigo [-]-[-] cleanly at the Valedos Stadium.

Yang Yang scored a goal in the opening 10 minutes, and scored another goal in the No. 408 minute of the second half. Both assists were made by Isco.

After returning from injury, Marcelo assisted Suarez to score a goal. In the end, Suarez assisted Toni Kroos with a long shot. Real Madrid won the opponent [-]-[-] away.

…………

…………

In the middle of the week, Real Madrid ushered in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final.

Due to the close proximity of the two games, Real Madrid was forced to carry out a large rotation, almost playing with a full substitute lineup.

In the away game, Real Madrid encountered Alaves' tenacious sniper attack. Coupled with the excessive rotation, Real Madrid's performance was not ideal. Although Morata scored in the No.309 minute of the first half, they were equalized by the opponent in the No.803 minute.

After that, both teams failed to score any more goals, and they shook hands one to one to make a draw.

Relying on [-]-[-] in the first leg, Real Madrid advanced to the Copa del Rey final with a total score of [-]-[-].

……

In another duel, Barcelona narrowly beat Atletico Madrid [-]-[-] at the Calderón Stadium with goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, before drawing [-]-[-] at the Camp Nou.

What really attracted attention was the second round. The referee showed a total of three red cards, which shows how tragic the game was.

First, Roberto of Barcelona accumulated two yellow cards in 7 minutes and was sent off. Then Carrasco also accumulated two yellow cards in No. 609 minutes.

There were three red cards in a game, which surprised all the onlookers and could see the intensity of the game.

In the end, Real Madrid and Barcelona once again met in the Copa del Rey final, which undoubtedly made people see the strength of the two teams.

When Real Madrid dominated La Liga, Barcelona could only pin their hopes on the Copa del Rey.

…………

…………

Narrowly defeated Atletico Madrid and advanced to the Copa del Rey final, Barcelona's morale was booming.

Back in La Liga, in the away game against Alaves, Barcelona relied on Cristiano Ronaldo's two passes and two shots to beat Alaves [-]-[-] in the away game, playing a hearty victory.

The Catalan media cheered after the game, shouting that the strongest Barcelona finally returned.

Because just three days ago, Real Madrid had just drawn a one-to-one draw with Alaves in this stadium, but they did not expect that Barcelona would win with six goals. Compared with the two, Barcelona obviously played better.

Real Madrid's state has indeed picked up, but it has not yet reached its best.

When Barcelona beat their opponents with six goals, Real Madrid also challenged Osasuna away.

Yang Yang opened the scoring for Real Madrid in the No.204 minute, and then Osasuna equalized the score, but in the No.60 second minute, Yang Yang assisted Isco to score a goal, and then Marcelo assisted Vazquez for another victory.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Osasuna [-]-[-] in the away game and scored another three points.

…………

…………

In the middle of the week, Real Madrid played the No.16 round of La Liga and challenged Valencia away.

At the Mestagna Stadium, Yang Yang scored a goal for Real Madrid in the opening 4 minutes, and Suarez scored another goal 5 minutes later.

In stoppage time in the first half, Marcelo sent an assist and Yang Yang scored twice.

In the end, Real Madrid beat Valencia [-]-[-] away with three goals in the first half.

After the battle, Real Madrid scored 22 points with an unbeaten record of 56 wins and [-] draws in [-] matches, ranking first in La Liga, a full nine points more than the second-ranked Barcelona. It can be said that they have basically secured the league championship in advance.

But this has long been expected by everyone, because it is not unusual for Real Madrid to beat Valencia.

What is really surprising is that Barcelona lost [-]-[-] to Paris Saint-Germain in the first round of the knockout round of the UEFA Champions League, shocking the world!
