Chapter 263
"Sammy, I'm a person who never pushes. Because I know that twisted melons are not sweet."

After George heard that Liverpool and Hypia had contacted, he found Hypia.Hypia did not avoid seeing him.

Seeing Hypia, George didn't beat around the bush.George didn't like this.

"Sammy, I just want to hear your thoughts. You've been at Blackburn Rovers for two years. You should know how I feel about you. You are the core of our club's defense. I hope you stay at the club, but if I won't stop you if you want to leave. I want to listen to your real thoughts. "

George is not one to push.

Although George really wanted Hypia to stay.But once Hyypia decides to leave, George will never stop him.

Because George would not want a player whose mind is not in the club.

Hypia was stunned for a moment when he saw George so straight-forward.But the state was adjusted quickly.

"Head, I want to thank you..."

George waved his hand.

"Sammy, you don't have to talk about it. The club pays you, you play for the club. I take you from Holland to Blackburn, and you give me a UEFA Cup. We don't owe anyone. I just thought today Listen to what you mean."

Hyypia is different from Klose.

If Klose hadn't been for George, it would have been impossible to make his debut in the top league so soon.It is also impossible to score more than 20 goals in the top league so quickly.Klose should thank George.

But Hypia doesn't have to.All of Hypia's skills were learned in the Netherlands.When George introduced Hypia, Hypia was already a finished product.Blackburn paid Hypia a salary and gave him a stage, and Hypia rewarded Blackburn with his outstanding performance.

So George directly interrupted Hypia's words.

Hypia was not angry when he heard George's words.Just sigh in my heart.

What Hypia said was not a lie.Hypia is sincerely grateful to George.What Hypia is most grateful for is that George brought Hypia to Blackburn and the Premier League.

"Head. Coach Houllier looked for me."

Houllier answered very frankly.

George nodded. "I know."

"I promised Coach Houllier." When Hyypia said this, it was a little difficult.Without the permission of the club, private contact with players is strictly prohibited by FIFA.Although this kind of thing is a secret known to everyone in football.

When George approached Hypia, he bypassed the club and first contacted Hypia himself.

But Hypia is still a little embarrassed to speak directly like this.

George shook his head when he heard Hypia's words.It seems that Hypia really decided to go to Liverpool.But George couldn't figure it out.

"Sammy, may I ask why?" George was puzzled. "Sammy, you have to know that we can play in the Champions League next season. And Liverpool, not to mention the Champions League, doesn't even play in the UEFA Cup. I think our club should have a better future than Liverpool."

Historically, Liverpool has won the Premier League No.4 this season and can participate in the UEFA Cup.Liverpool will also win five titles in the 00-01 season.Among them are the League Cup, the FA Cup and the UEFA Cup.

Owen even won the European Footballer of the Year by virtue of his performance in the five championships and the national team.Although it is a very controversial footballer, he has won a European footballer after all.

But with the intervention of Blackburn, Liverpool only won the league No.5 this season.UEFA Cup qualification did not mix up.That glorious five-time crown certainly doesn't exist anymore.

"Sammy, you have to know that we are No.2 in the Premier League. If Manchester United were not absolutely strong this season, maybe the Premier League title this season will be ours. Even so, the most likely to compete with Manchester United for the title next season is We're Blackburn."

"And Liverpool? They haven't done well over the years. Sammy, I don't know why you want to go to Liverpool?"

Hypia gritted her teeth when she heard George asking herself so bluntly.

After a long time, Hypia slowly revealed the reason. "Head, Coach Houllier said he is willing to give me the captaincy. And to get better results, I think Liverpool has a bigger stage."

There is another reason that Hypia did not say clearly.Because Hypia thinks it's hard to say.

That is Liverpool's guarantee to Hypia, that is, they will give Hypia a weekly salary of [-] pounds.This is much higher than the current weekly salary of £[-] at Blackburn.Hyypia himself knew it all too well.If he stayed in Blackburn, he would definitely not get a weekly salary of [-] pounds.

It's just that Hypia felt embarrassed to tell George about this.So no reason was given.

Hearing what Hypia said, George was taken aback.

Hypia didn't say much about the reason, but just said it very simply.But George understood.

Houllier seems to value Hypia very much and is willing to give Hypia the captaincy of Liverpool.Houllier likes Hypia George knows that Liverpool invited Hypia last season.However, Hypia had an ambiguous attitude at the time, and Blackburn did not let him go.

But it appears Houllier has made up his mind this season.He even used the captain of Liverpool to seduce Hyypia.

In fact, George didn't feel anything for this reason alone.

But the reason Hypia said later made George very depressed.Hyypia said that Liverpool's stage is bigger and Liverpool can achieve better results.Now Hypia has won the UEFA Cup with Blackburn, and the better results than this are the Premier League championship and the Champions League championship.

George smiled wryly.It turns out that in Hyypia's mind, Liverpool have far more opportunities than Blackburn to win the Premier League and the Champions League.

Although Hypia was very calm when he said it, it was in this calm that George heard Hypia's admiration for Liverpool and his contempt for Blackburn in his heart.

Hyypia may not really despise Blackburn, but in his heart Liverpool is the big stage.Liverpool is the real big club.

Liverpool's downturn should only be temporary.With Houllier rebuilding, Liverpool will soon be able to rise again.As long as Liverpool rises, then Blackburn is not a problem at all.This is Hypia's idea.

George smiled wryly.Finally nod.

"Sami, since you have made your decision, I will not stop you. But you should know that when I bought Leo, I spent 200 million pounds. I think your strength is not weaker than Leo, and You're more mature than Leo."

Although George didn't say it clearly.But Hypia heard it.George can let Hyypia go, but Liverpool must come up with enough transfer fees.

"Yes, I understand the head."

After sending Hypia away, George couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Fucking giants. Fucking Liverpool."

Damn, Liverpool are all mixed up with this virtue now.Even casually expressing some sincerity to Hypia, Hypia has already moved his heart.Why?
It's not because Liverpool has a good history and is the number one giant in England.Even in European football, they are the top giants.A wealthy family, what a wealthy family is.A wealthy family is nothing more than your previous historical glory.

Brilliant history, useless.

In terms of historical glory, Nottingham Forest is also a two-time Champions League winner.What good is that?I don't know where to hang out now.

But no matter how much George scolded in his heart, it was useless.Liverpool has this confidence.Four shiny Champions League trophies stood there, and eighteen top league championship trophies in England were shining.

Even if Liverpool will not have a league title in the next ten years, and in the end they can only play in the Europa League.Still, as long as you hook your hands, you can still network a large number of good players.Those players would also like to go to Liverpool.

This is the charm of the rich.

Damn it, which bastard said that a down and out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken.Isn’t there another saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.It's about a giant like Liverpool.

But even if Hypia was sold, George would not allow it to be sold at a low price.If Liverpool dare to haggle over the transfer fee, George will keep Hypia in Blackburn even if he dies.Anyway, Hypia's current contract has three years left.

Liverpool reacted quickly.The first offer was £1000 million.

George looked at the offer and understood that Houllier was indeed bound to win Hypia. A transfer fee of 1000 million pounds is no longer a big deal in the current world football.But with 1000 million pounds, buying a defender is still a big deal.

But George wasn't satisfied at all.He went back directly.George told Liverpool very euphemistically: "Sami Hyypia is not for sale. He is an important player of the team, and he is an indispensable core of the team's defense."

If it is at other times, I feel that this is a refusal.

But Liverpool had already heard from Hyypia.Know that this is George telling Liverpool that your offer is too low.Get more money.

Soon Liverpool's second round of offers came out. 1000 two million pounds.This is already the same price as Ferdinand.

But George was still a little dissatisfied.Ferdinand is 200 million pounds, but now Ferdinand is still very frizzy.It can't be compared with the mature Hypia at all.Hyypia is 27 years old and in his prime.

And the peak period of a defender is generally at the age of 28 or nine.Even the peak period of many defenders is over 30 years old.

Because a defender, especially a central defender, can become a top defender by relying on his consciousness.Arsenal's classic car defense line, especially players like Keown and Adam Zi, can still be active in the Premier League because of their excellent awareness.

Therefore, Hyypia, who is only 27 years old, should be worth more than Ferdinand.

"Sami Hypia is a very important part of us." George's answer gradually softened.

Liverpool also knew what George meant.The third offer was £350 million.

George really didn't want to lose Hyypia.But at this point, there is no other way.So with a swipe of the pen, he agreed to Liverpool's offer.

George thought there would be plenty of rest this summer.What happened to Hypia was not thought of, which completely disrupted George's plan.George can only stay in Blackburn.
