Chapter 138 New Season

After this unexpected encounter with Batistuta, Mu Jianfeng participated in some commercial activities in the Chinese circle under the arrangement of Raiola, and participated in the filming of a product endorsement.

Afterwards, he met Jocelyn and flew to the beach on the east coast of the United States to enjoy the rest of the vacation with Semi, Jovetic and the others.

During this period, many big things happened in European football.

Among them, the most important is the return of Florentino, and it is accompanied by the departure of the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship.

At the end of June, Real Madrid announced the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo. The new Mr. Footballer and Golden Globe winner joined Los Blancos with a transfer fee of [-] million euros that shocked the world.

And one after another, Real Madrid poached the popular niche Benzema from Ligue [-], and at the same time recruited the best midfield commander in the Premier League, Harvey Alonso.

And their national derby opponent, Barcelona also spent huge sums of money to introduce Serie A's top star Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

For a time, almost the whole world was talking about the two teams in Spain, and the fans jokingly called them the "Western Super League" duo.

In Italy, the biggest moves are Juventus, which is aiming for revival, and Inter Milan, which wants to seek trophies in the Champions League.

Juventus announced early on the introduction of Brazilian star Diego from the Bundesliga, with a transfer fee of 2450 million euros. In this crazy summer, Juventus is complacent about their quickness.

At the same time, they also bought Felipe Melo, a defensive midfielder who performed very well last season, from their competitors.

The Brazilian titan had been rumored with Arsenal in the Premier League for a long time, but eventually joined Juventus. In order to get him, Juventus not only sent cash, but also sent two midfielders.

C Zanetti and Marchinho.

The total transfer price reached 2500 million euros!
This offer made Prandelli no choice but to let him go, even if he didn't want to.

Another big-spending team, Inter Milan, got several "old boys" to join after sending out Ibrahimovic. The Champions League champion launched the most violent attack!
As for Viola Fiorentina, they didn't make much moves this season. Apart from sending Melo, getting cash back, C Zanetti and Marchinho, there wasn't any big movement.

On the one hand, some teams still need to pass the Champions League qualifiers to determine whether they will receive the Champions League participation bonus.

The other main reason is that the team's owner, the Italian shoemaker and businessman Della Valle
The brothers refused to approve transfer funds for the team.

The Della Valle brothers have their own business in Italy, but the reason why they took the initiative to save Florence was not really wanting to engage in sports investment.

Rather, they want to use such a channel to build relationships with Florence's municipal councilors, so as to promote their new stadium construction plan and the incidental construction of a luxury outlet (factory price store) shopping street.

But just this summer, Florence's city hall officially rejected the proposal, which also led to the Della Valle brothers refusing to continue investing in the team.

Therefore, although in the transfer market, Prandelli has many favorite targets to introduce.

But the cash-strapped Corvino can only run around in vain, because this summer, with the help of the Western Super League duo, the value of players has generally risen by [-] to [-] percentage points.

They even thought about trading the team's potential new stars, but Jovetic hasn't played his due value yet, and Mu Jianfeng has been officially acquired by more wealthy teams.

Because they are afraid that this Chinese youth is another Ibisevic-only half a season of superb performance.

In addition, they generally have doubts about the shortcomings of this young forward's weak basic ability, so although there are also offers for Mu Jianfeng, they are all tentative offers of several million.

This made Florence flatly refuse.

Even so, the news that Mu Jianfeng's worth may break the Chinese transfer record has also aroused a lot of discussion in China.

Even some domestic companies that reacted quickly began to try to contact Mu Jianfeng's agent, hoping to win Mu Jianfeng's endorsement contract at a low price as soon as possible, but they were rejected by Raiola's new employee, Chinese agent Wu Liang up.

He believes that Mu Jianfeng should try to find some relatively large brands for his first endorsement in China, so as to better enhance his influence and brand value, so he should not rush to sign those low-priced endorsements that will consume brand value.

And Mu Jianfeng didn't have the slightest interest in those insincere invitations, but after the transfer of Ibrahimovic ended, Raiola took the opportunity to continue to increase the salary for Mu Jianfeng.

As a result, Corvino refused without hesitation.

For this reason, the two were a little unhappy.

But these didn't affect Mu Jianfeng's mood. He took Yocelyn, Semi and Jovetic to play very happily.

Semi has officially left the team, and with the help of Mino Raiola's economic company, he joined the team in the Italian second division, starting as a rotation player.

Therefore, when Mu Jianfeng and Jovetic ended their vacation early and returned to the team to prepare for the Champions League qualifying match, Semi still continued to enjoy his vacation.

……

The rest time always feels like it goes by very quickly, and it is the day when the team gathers in a blink of an eye.

Because of preparations for the UEFA Champions League play-offs on August [-], the team's assembly date was set for mid-July.

When Mu Jianfeng and Jovetic met and returned to the club to report together, they found that after a summer of rest, many people's state had declined to varying degrees.

First of all, Mu Jianfeng himself, after a summer of rest, although he still insists on basic exercise every day, and occasionally practice shooting, his weight has increased by three kilograms compared to the end of the season.

And Jovetic also gained two kilograms...

Therefore, after completing the first day of restorative physical training, the two were required by the head coach to undergo strict physical training, and they must return to their original physical state within a week!
The two, who knew they were wrong, had no choice but to accept tedious physical training, sweating profusely in the team gym every day.

Fortunately, almost all first-team players have more or less physical problems, so the two of them are not special.

And Mutu, who was absent in the final stage of last season, has also returned, but it can only be said that it is unknown how much state the Romanian star, who is still involved in a compensation dispute with Chelsea, can maintain.

In addition, in addition to the joining of C Zanetti and Marchinho in the first team, there are also some marginal figures who have left the team.

In addition, Babacar of the youth team was also promoted to the first team to participate in training together.

So overall, it can be regarded as a new season with new changes.

In this way, the training intensity gradually increased, and the stars of the first team gradually recovered their state.

And they finally waited for their opponent in the playoffs-Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon.

So three days before the start of the game, Prandelli confirmed the team's starting list, and then flew to Portugal with his soldiers, preparing to participate in this crucial Champions League qualifying match!
　I'm sorry, it may have been too long in the past, and I have seriously lost my bookmarks these days... But I still finished writing with my chest, because I want to tell the story in its entirety.
