super storm

Chapter 770 They are all old friends!
"Benitez?"

In the gym in Beijing, Winston Bogard shifted his gaze from the freshly baked newspaper in the morning to Yang Yang in the equipment area, and looked at him in disbelief.

"Florentino intends to recruit all those who can restrain Barcelona to Real Madrid."

The Dutch fitness coach also seems to be very surprised by Real Madrid's big money this summer, because they have already spent too much money this summer. The two superstars Kaka and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have spent more than 3000 million, plus Xavi Alonso and other players, as well as Yang Yang, who has not disclosed any information for the time being due to contract details negotiations...

"Hey, does he really have a transfer fee of [-] million?" Winston Bogard asked dumbfounded.

Yang Yang just finished the bench press, he was relieved, got up and took a towel to wipe off the sweat on his head, finally he breathed a sigh of relief, and then replied: "It should be, it is very easy for a club like Real Madrid to borrow money, and many banks are begging them to borrow money."

Membership teams such as Real Madrid and Barcelona have the biggest advantage of being tax-free, and at the same time they can get strong support from the bank, because the bank is not worried that they will go bankrupt at all, so they will lend them money with confidence.

Of course, this is not the advantage of the membership system, but the advantage of Real Madrid and Barcelona.

These two teams represent two different Spanish cultures, one represents Madrid, the other represents Catalonia, and the two teams represent the two most developed cities in Spain, so they are naturally more distinctive.

This is also the reason why Spain's membership system has already begun to fail. Other teams including Valencia have restructured one after another, but only Real Madrid and Barcelona have not only persisted, but also become better and better. Known as the duo of the Western Super League, they have a detached position in Spanish football and even European football.

Yang Yang is not at all surprised that Benitez coached Real Madrid.

He still clearly remembers that before Liverpool played Real Madrid's UEFA Champions League away game, Benitez once organized Liverpool players to hang out in Madrid, and the deepest impression Benitez left on Yang Yang was that he was proud of his hometown, and at the same time he also clearly revealed that he was a Real Madrid fan.

At that time, Yang Yang had a feeling that if Real Madrid extended an invitation to Benitez, it would be difficult for the Spaniard to refuse.

And in fact it is.

……

"The newspaper also said that Benitez offered Florentino a coaching condition. He wanted to bring his love to Mascherano to the Bernabeu because he firmly believed that Las Diarra was not enough as a defensive midfielder."

Winston Bogarde looked at Yang Yang and said, "So, it is said that Real Madrid is starting negotiations with Liverpool, hoping to introduce Mascherano. It is probably also a matter of price."

Yang Yang nodded. It is very difficult for Liverpool to refuse players to leave the team because he is heavily in debt and the two American bosses are divorced. Now, when Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso and Arbeloa leave, Benitez will also leave. If Real Madrid extends an olive branch again, Mascherano is very likely to switch to Real Madrid.

This is also a good thing for Yang Yang.

Yang Yang, Harvey Alonso, Mascherano, Arbeloa, the four players are old teammates of Liverpool for many years, and they are familiar with each other; plus Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Sneijder, Robben and Vermaelen, they are old friends in the Netherlands, and they share similar interests.

Not to mention there is Kaka, and now that Real Madrid intends to sell Heinze, Mino Raiola is strongly recommending Inter Milan's left back Maxwell, who is Yang Yang's best friend.

I still remember that when Yang Yang asked Raiola why he brought Vermaelen to Real Madrid, Raiola clearly told Yang Yang that this is a self-protection strategy because Yang Yang needs a partner in the dressing room of Real Madrid.

This can't help but remind Yang Yang of the time when he was in Ajax, the two factions headed by Zlatan Ibrahimovic and van der Vaart were fighting each other endlessly.

According to Mino Raiola, the situation in Ajax is normal. There are even many teams that have not only two factions, but multiple factions coexisting. A team like Liverpool with Gerrard and other local players as the backbone, the whole locker room is united and harmonious, and a harmonious team is a special case.

So, if Yang Yang transfers to Real Madrid, how should he protect himself?
Raiola tried his best to promote the transfer of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and brought Vermaelen, and now he wants to let Real Madrid introduce Maxwell. To put it bluntly, it is to make the people around Yang Yang as strong as possible. At the same time, it highlights Yang Yang's core position and establishes his role in the locker room.

Florentino must also be aware of this. After all, there are big guys like Raul and Guti in the Real Madrid dressing room, and local backbones like Casillas and Ramos. God knows what will happen if Yang Yang is alone?
Of course, Yang Yang believes that the feelings and loyalty of Raul and others to Real Madrid will be based on the overall situation of the team, but sometimes things are very complicated and cannot be understood at all.

Even for a player like Yang Yang who is so gregarious and can get along with people everywhere, whether it is Mino Raiola or Florentino, they are a little worried about his situation in the Real Madrid locker room.

After all, this place is a hundred times more complicated than the locker room of any team in the world.

And Yang Yang is by nature the kind of person who doesn't like intrigue and puts all his attention on football, so these things can only be worried and pondered by Raiola, his agent.

……

"Leave aside the transfer matter for now. When I was in South Africa, I told you that I hope you can find a chance to go to Madrid. He has an old groin problem. I hope you can help with research." Yang Yang said casually.

Kaka's injury is an old problem. At the FIFA Awards Ceremony, Yang Yang asked about Kaka's injury, but he recovered at that time, but he repeated it later.

Don't look at Kaka's brilliant performance in the South African Confederations Cup this year, but in fact he is very aware of his old problems, so he entrusted Yang Yang to ask Winston Bogard to show him, obviously also wanting to develop a set of rehabilitation training for himself.

"This is a big problem in the groin." Winston Bogarde frowned.

"Yeah, I won't be looking for you if it's not difficult."

"Does Real Madrid know?"

"I know, Kaka didn't hide it before, and the team doctor also knew it when he went to Brazil to give him a medical examination, but Real Madrid believes that he can recover, and you can see that he performed quite well in South Africa."

"But this kind of thing is hard to say." Winston Bogard shook his head. "Fatigue is also an important factor that triggers the injury, and the recovery of the groin requires a long period of physical therapy."

Yang Yang and Kaka also understand this.

Professional players are the most sensitive to their own bodies, and Yang Yang has always taken care of his body carefully. Once there is a slight sign of something, he will immediately go to his personal trainer.

"By the way, when are you going to Madrid?" asked Winston Bogarde.

"The contract has been negotiated for a month, and the negotiation has not yet been concluded. It may take some time. After Su Ye's work is done, I plan to go to Madrid to look for a house."

Raiola is already preparing for the house.

This is a big event, and not only Yang Yang, Kaka also asked him where he was going to live before, and planned to be neighbors with Yang Yang.

Needless to say, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Vermaelen are both waiting for him to see a house and plan to buy it in the same neighborhood.

Harvey Alonso has already chosen. He doesn't like being affected by football in his life. He likes to go shopping with his wife and children, so he decided to buy a house in the center of Madrid and settle down. He called Yang Yang and invited him to join him, but Yang Yang politely declined.

If he lives in Madrid, God knows if there is any privacy?

Not to mention the fans, but to be stared at by those paparazzi every day is an extremely painful thing.

Therefore, Yang Yang considered buying or renting a house in a high-end community in the suburbs.

Housing prices in Madrid are not expensive, especially high-end single-family villas, and this time Yang Yang may stay in Madrid for a few years, so he is also considering buying a house.

You know, he rented Gerrard's house and lived there for three years. After moving out, Gerrard's house nearly doubled in value. This is really rare for Liverpool's real estate market that has not improved for many years.

And the main selling point is that Yang Yang lived there.

So this time, Yang Yang thought that instead of cheapening the landlord, he might as well cheapen himself, so he simply bought a house.

Now that he has asked Raiola to look for him in Madrid, he will wait for Su Ye to find time to go to Madrid together.

……

Although Su Ye went to England to study for a year, but now that she has graduated, she has more drama appointments than before.

The main reason is that "Red Cliff" and "Voice of Names" that she had filmed before had a good box office and excellent reputation. Su Ye also won the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Supporting Actress and the Taiwan Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress for her two big plays. Her acting skills have also been unanimously affirmed by the outside world.

And the Hollywood movie "Fast and Furious 5000" she took over was also released in April. The box office in mainland China reached [-] million, far exceeding the expectations of the outside world and the film studio. Su Ye also contributed a lot to this.

Now, she is already a top-tier actress in China, so there is no shortage of film appointments. She is currently studying the script of the famous domestic director Feng Xiaogang, which is about the earthquake.

What's interesting is that a film directed by Ning Hao that Wei Zheng invested in before was also released at the beginning of the year. Because of Yang Yang's investment and the filming in Yang Yang's hometown, it was very interesting and the box office far exceeded outside expectations, approaching [-] million.

Yang Yang also made a lot of money from this movie, and Wei Zheng is now gearing up to consider continuing to enter the film industry.

He was still saying yesterday that he was considering investing in a friend to make a comedy film, and the heroine in it was very suitable for Su Ye to challenge his acting skills.

For these, Yang Yang didn't care too much.

Now he just needs to focus on football.
