I brush achievements in football

Ji Ya knew that he had only the last way left.

That is to go to France and dig out the last person!

He felt that the easiest person failed, and the most difficult person also failed. Giroud, who is of medium difficulty, can he still succeed?

On July [-]th, Ji Ya came to Tours in central France. Tours is not a strong team. Strictly speaking, they are an unknown team. Runner-up, the best result in the French Cup is to reach the semi-finals.

Compared with Southampton, they are relatively weak.

And Olivier Giroud joined Tours at a low price from Grenoble, who is also in the French second division, before the start of last season. It only cost Tours a mere 20 euros. French low-level league transfers have always been very expensive. cheap.

However, as a 23-year-old forward who could not play the main force in Grenoble and could only be loaned to France [-], Giroud has no ambitions yet. He is very satisfied to be a semi-main player in Tours.

After all, for a 22-year-old striker who is still playing in Ligue [-], it is already a blessing to be able to play in Ligue [-] now!

Tours ranked sixth in Ligue [-] last season and performed well, but Tours also knows that with their strength, that is, Ligue [-] is swaying up and down, it is impossible to enter Ligue [-], and Ligue [-] is different from the Premier League. The income of the top league will skyrocket. Compared with the income of Ligue [-] teams and Ligue [-], there is not much essential difference.

In the five major leagues, Ligue [-], income basically depends on selling people.

So when receiving Ji Ya, Tour's general manager, Mr. Christie, was still very happy.

"Olivier? This is a good young man. Although he was not the main force in our team last season, he also played 23 times and scored nine goals. In addition, a center like him is very useful tactically, so he is very helpful to the team. We are still very important." Mr. Christie said solemnly.

Hearing what he said, Ji Ya was relieved.

Now that you say that, you can talk about it!

"You also know that our Southampton has been unlucky in recent years. We have dropped to the League One, and our income is not too rich, but in terms of transfer fees, I will definitely not let my partners suffer...Mr. Christie, I remember that when Olivier moved to Tours last season, he was worth 20 euros, and now we are willing to pay 50, what do you think?" Ji Ya said.

Christie glanced at Ji Ya in surprise, and then felt that this young man was a little urgent, and this seemed to be a place that could be used.

And 50... Christie also felt that it was too little.

Although Giroud was only 20 when he came, but now he has played in Ligue 23 for one and a half years, as a main force, and he is only [-] years old. He is still a center forward, and the price can be higher.

"Mr. Ji, as I said just now, he is not for sale." Christie said sincerely.

"80. We have to rebuild. It is impossible to spend too much money on the forward position. We have bought Lambert before. He was the top scorer in League One last season. One scorer is enough to be stable. I just think that our forwards are not too young, so we need forwards in their prime, but I can't spend more money for an auxiliary center. What's more, even if you keep Giroud, If he improves a bit, how much can he sell for? In Ligue [-], this kind of center is not very popular." Ji Ya shook his head and said.

The attitudes of the two became tough at the same time, and Christie also found that although the young man opposite seemed a little anxious, he still had a solid grasp of the bottom line.

But also, in Ligue [-], everyone likes players who can shoot suddenly. A big center like Giroud is not very popular.

In fact, in the next season, after Giroud won the top scorer in Ligue 200, he moved to Montpellier for only [-] million euros.

If you change your household registration book in the UK, the top scorer in the British Championship will be worth tens of millions.

So after weighing it, Christie bargained for a while, and then asked for a round number, and finally agreed to Ji Ya's offer of 100 million euros.

Seeing that the other party agreed, Ji Ya heaved a sigh of relief, this is his last chance!

However, the club's agreement to the offer is only preliminary, and Giroud must agree to it himself.

At this time, Ji Ya realized that he had missed one more thing. When he was arguing with Tour Club these days, he should also contact Giroud. This two-pronged negotiation method is now used by any club. It is mainly to save time. And avoid misunderstandings.

If Giroud has contacted other clubs during this period, it will be troublesome!

Fortunately, no one is interested in Giroud during this time.

After all, a player who only played steadily in Ligue [-] last season is not too young, and there are not many teams interested in him.

However, when talking with Giroud, Giroud himself seemed not very interested...

As a young guy, Giroud doesn't have an agent yet, so Ji Ya met Giroud directly.

Giroud is very polite, but when it comes to things like playing in League One, he seems to lack interest.

But it’s normal. He managed to gain a firm foothold in Ligue [-]. The circulation channels between Ligue [-] and Ligue [-] are quite frequent. As long as he plays well, he will play in Ligue [-] and then transfer to the Premier League and La Liga. not small.

If you go to League One to play, your future is a bit uncertain...

"We are not a small team in Southampton. We have a stadium of 3 people. We are in the middle of the Premier League. We fell to the League One. It was just an accident, not always in the League One... Southampton It is only a matter of time before Puton returns to the Premier League. You are still young, why don’t you give it a try? And your characteristics are more suitable for the English game. With all due respect, with your current strength, it is impossible to go to the Premier League immediately. What a good performance, but if you can practice in England's lower leagues, you won't have any discomfort in the Premier League. This is also a very good thing for you personally."

Ji Ya said to Jirou earnestly, but Jirou still hesitated.

"We can even put extra clauses in the contract that if we don't come back to the Championship at the end of the season, you can move on at any time. Of course, if we come back to the Championship immediately, then you don't have to rush out. Now, you are only 23 years old now, and at the age of 24, you can play in the British Championship for one or two seasons, and you will be more likely to be favored by the Premier League team." Ji Ya finally used his trump card.

Such terms moved Giroud.

The most important thing is that he seems to have never been so valued by others...
