Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 483
The current Real Madrid club, the head coach is no longer the Italian Ancelotti.After taking over Mourinho's position and coaching for two seasons, he was replaced by the Spaniard Benitez.

However, Benitez did not secure the position of Real Madrid coach.After only half a season in charge, he was fired by club president Florentino during the winter break.

This time, it is the famous retired French star Zidane who replaced Benitez as the head coach of Real Madrid.

As a Frenchman, Zidane played a key role in the introduction of Pogba, the current core midfielder of the French team.It was at his strong request that the Real Madrid Club offered a sky-high price for Pogba.

When Raiola brought over Chen Ran's condition that he only wanted money and no players, Zidane and Florentino fell silent.

After sending Raiola away, Florentino and Zidane had a special meeting.

"Zinedine, now the Crystal Palace club does not agree to use players to offset the debt. If we pay all the Pogba transfer fee in cash, then in this summer transfer period and the next winter transfer period, you will not be able to introduce any more. any other player."

"Is it worth paying such a high price for Pogba? Besides, why did the Crystal Palace Club let go of Pogba, who is just 23 years old and has great talent and strength? Have you considered the reasons for this?"

Before becoming the chairman of the Real Madrid club, Florentino had already been a bigwig in the Spanish business world for many years. He never believed that there would be a good thing like a pie in the sky.

The Crystal Palace club has always protected its main players as not for sale, but this time it suddenly changed its style with Pogba.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, which has to make Florentino vigilant.

"Mr. Chairman, I have already found out about Pogba in private. The reason why Crystal Palace Club is willing to sell Pogba this time is mainly because he fell out with the head coach Guardiola."

"Pogba wants to be the core of Crystal Palace's midfield, but Guardiola only uses him as a defensive midfielder. And the Chinese chose to support Guardiola, so he put Pogba in transfer list."

Zidane is not a rookie who has just entered the football circle. The Crystal Palace Club's uncharacteristic behavior, he also used his relationship to inquire about the situation.

"Zinedine, can you make sure Pogba is telling the truth? After all, no one speaks ill of themselves."

Obviously, Florentino still has reservations about Pogba's one-sided statement.

"Mr. Chairman, I think what Pogba said should be true. Guardiola has indeed always placed Pogba in the defensive midfielder position."

"I deliberately looked for the video of Crystal Palace's game last season. Pogba is really not willing to be a defensive midfielder. He repeatedly rushed to the front to participate in the attack, leaving space for Crystal Palace's midfield defense. It caused Crystal Palace to concede goals and points in some key games."

"From the second half of last season, Guardiola put Pogba on the bench. I guess this is the fundamental reason why Crystal Palace Club wants to sell Pogba this time."

Seeing that Zidane had done sufficient investigation and research, Florentino nodded slowly and asked his last question.

"Zinedine, can you guarantee that after Pogba comes to Real Madrid, he will not make the mistakes he made in Crystal Palace again?"

"Mr. Chairman, Guardiola used Pogba as a defensive midfielder, and Pogba was too involved in the offense and did not follow the requirements of the coach. This must be a mistake."

"However, I intend to make Pogba the core of our attack at Real Madrid. The task of defense is given to other people. In this way, naturally there will be no problems with him at Crystal Palace."

After listening to Zidane's plan, Florentino pondered for a while.

Doesn't Pogba just want to be the core of the team's midfielder, since the Crystal Palace club can't meet his requirements, but Real Madrid can.

In this way, Pogba's conflicts at the Crystal Palace Club will no longer exist at Real Madrid.

Florentino hadn't experienced Pogba's tossing ability at this time. After repeated weighing, he felt that he could gamble on Pogba.

After all, Florentino's own style is to use big money to introduce top stars to Real Madrid.

And Pogba just has the talent and strength to become a top star.

So, after making a decision, Florentino quickly notified Raiola of the result.

Raiola, who didn't have much hope for this trip to Spain, was overjoyed.

Regardless of the fatigue of the journey, he immediately flew to Manchester overnight.

"Mr. Chairman, Real Madrid's Florentino has just changed the conditions and is willing to use 3000 million euros in cash to introduce Pogba."

"Before I report this matter to Chen Ran, I'll come over to say hello to you. I wonder if you plan to adjust the offer of the Manchester City club?"

Mino Raiola sat with two big dark circles under his eyes in front of the chairman of the Manchester City Club, Kardun al-Mubarak, while he kept stuffing cakes in his mouth while sipping coffee.

No way, for this big business of hundreds of millions of euros, he has been flying back and forth between Belgium, England and Spain these days.

I didn't have a good meal, and I even took time to sleep on the plane.

"Very good. Mino, thank you for letting me know about Real Madrid in advance."

Kardun Al Mubarak nodded with satisfaction. It seems that it was the right choice to invite Raiola back to be the transfer consultant of Manchester City Club, and the money was not wasted.

"Mino, what price do you think I will pay to beat Real Madrid and buy Pogba?"

Kardun Al Mubarak didn't bother to go around in circles, and directly asked Raiola for his opinion.

After all, Raiola is Pogba's agent.In this transfer, it is a key figure who can influence Pogba's decision.

"Mr. Chairman, with all due respect, in terms of the influence of the club, Manchester City has no way to compare with Real Madrid."

"So, if Pogba is willing to give up Real Madrid and join Manchester City instead, the conditions you offer must be higher than those of Real Madrid."

While carefully expressing his opinion, Raiola carefully observed Kardun Al Mubarak's face. He was not willing to offend these big benefactors from the Middle East.

"Mino, I know everything you said. Don't worry, I won't care. You can just say the numbers."

Seeing Raiola's cautious look, Kardun Al Mubarak smiled and waved his hands.

"Ahem, yes, Mr. Chairman. Real Madrid's current offer is 3000 million euros. My suggestion is that Manchester City's best offer is 2000 million euros higher than them."

"As for the contract for Pogba, in order to reflect the importance Manchester City attaches to him, I suggest that the annual salary given to Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi by the Crystal Palace Club can be compared."

Although Mino Raiola looked terrified on the surface, when he set the price, he did not live up to his reputation of asking for money at all.

"Mino, you mean, we offer 5000 million euros to the Crystal Palace club, and then give Pogba a contract with an annual salary of 2000 million euros?"

Karduun Al Mubarak looked at Raiola indifferently, with neither happiness nor anger visible on his face.

"Yes, Mr. Chairman. If it is lower than this price, it may be difficult for us to compete with Real Madrid."

Although he knew that his asking price was too harsh, but thinking that his income was closely related to this, Raiola still bit the bullet and continued.

"Okay! Manchester City will make an offer according to your suggestion. However, Mino, this is also our final offer, understand?"

"Understood, Mr. Chairman."

After leaving the Manchester City club, Raiola excitedly rushed to Belgium to meet Chen Ran.

Although there are still two clubs, Liverpool and Manchester United, vying for Pogba, Raiola does not intend to continue raising the price.

The Manchester City club has raised the price to 5000 million euros, which is high enough.

Due to the appearance of Chen Ran, a large number of stars were locked in the Crystal Palace Club in advance, which made the transfer of many record-setting players in the previous life never happen in this life.

At present, the player transfer fee record in international football is still the 8800 million euros Barcelona spent on the introduction of Neymar from Santos.

If Pogba's transfer to Manchester City is successful, it will almost double the player's transfer record.

Although Raiola desperately wants money, he also knows enough is enough.If you continue to lift it up, you will really offend people.

"Mr. Chen, I have two good news for you!"

As soon as he entered the door, Raiola rushed to announce the good news to Chen Ran.

Although Little Fatty Louis reported Raiola's every move to Chen Ran, but when he saw Raiola's thick dark circles, he still couldn't help sighing that "money can turn ghosts around" is a wise saying.

"Mino, you've worked hard. You need to get a good night's sleep now. If there's anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow."

While speaking, Chen Ran personally poured Raiola a glass of ice water and handed it over.

"Thank you Mr. Chen, I'm not tired now."

Quickly stepped forward to take the water glass with both hands, took a sip of ice water, and Raiola suddenly became more energetic.

"Mino, it seems that you brought back good news this time."

"Yes, Mr. Chen. Real Madrid has agreed to pay all the 3000 million euros in cash and no longer use players to offset the payment."

"Also, I went to Manchester City again. They have now re-hired me as a transfer consultant for the club, and I informed Kardun al-Mubarak of Real Madrid's change in payment methods."

"Under my suggestion, the Manchester City club finally increased the offer. They have now increased the transfer fee of Pogba to 5000 million euros."

In front of Chen Ran, Raiola had no intention of hiding anything, and reported his series of actions heartily.

This is also a decision made by Raiola after careful consideration.

The experience of dealing with Chen Ran in these years told him that playing tricks with Chen Ran usually did not end well.

On the contrary, he was honest and obedient, and the results were not bad.

Seeing that Raiola was so honest this time, Chen Ran also took a surprised look at the fat man.

But since the other party is so knowledgeable, it doesn't matter if there are some preparations.

"Mino, it seems that you are leaning towards Manchester City?"

"Yes, Mr. Chen. Didn't you say it before? Whichever club offers a high price, sell Pogba to that club."

With a simple and honest smile on his face, Raiola looked at Chen Ran anxiously.

If Pogba ends up going to the Manchester City club, then he can get a transfer commission of at least 1500 million euros.

Coupled with the consulting fees of Manchester City Club and Pogba's commission, this figure directly exceeded 2000 million euros.

Now, this large sum of money is waiting for Chen Ran to nod.

"Pogba's transfer to Manchester City Club, I have no objection. The next thing, you go directly to Luis, he will help you deal with it."

"Thank you Mr. Chen!"

In this way, before the start of the European Cup, a piece of transfer news shocked the entire international football world.

The French midfielder Pogba of the Crystal Palace Club joined the Manchester City Club with a record transfer fee of 5000 million euros.

"Fuck! Crystal Palace sold Pogba?"

"5000 million euros? This is nearly double the 8800 million euro transfer record of Neymar joining Barcelona!"

"Pogba needs to be talented and capable, and he is only 23 years old this year. His future is limitless. Why should Crystal Palace sell him?"

"It should be Guardiola's meaning? Didn't you see that Pogba has been unable to play the main force in Crystal Palace since the second half of last season?"

"It's true. Pogba always wanted to go up and attack. As a result, his position became a loophole for the opponent's counterattack. Crystal Palace lost several key games because of this. I guess Guardiola couldn't stand it and gave up completely. Pogba."

"Even if this is the case, don't sell it to Manchester City, which is also in the Premier League. Isn't this strengthening the strength of direct competitors?"

"I guess it's because the Manchester City club has the highest bid. The sky-high price of 5000 million euros, no one can afford it."

"Hehe, you all underestimate Chen Ran too much. He is such a rogue, can he strengthen the direct competitor of Manchester City, the league champion?"
