The Glory of the Godfather

As judged by many media and experts after the end of last season, Aston Villa, which has been silent for a year, will make a big move in the transfer market this summer, rebuilding the existing lineup to a certain extent, however, A lot of people didn't expect Zlatan Ibrahimovic to be the first to leave Aston Villa.

It is already the first ten days of July of 2014, the smoke of the World Cup in Brazil has not completely dissipated, the shock caused by the German chariot reaching the top of the world, and the Brazilians being massacred in front of their home seems to be still yesterday, the attention of the fans and the media Li was attracted by the heavy news in the transfer market.

Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain officially announced that the club has introduced the 2013 FIFA Golden Ball and Swedish veteran Zlatan Ibrahimovic from Aston Villa with a transfer fee of 51 million euros.

The news shocked the world.

First of all, I didn't expect that Aston Villa's first person to leave the team would be Ibrahimovic.

Aston Villa ranked second in the Premier League last season and only won the runner-up. The Premier League avoided the embarrassment of being crowned five consecutive times by Aston Villa.

Aston Villa's loss of the league title is a bit embarrassing. They have the same points as Manchester City, and their mutual records are also tied. In the end, they lost the league title with a goal difference disadvantage.

In the Champions League, Aston Villa drew with Atletico Madrid on two legs in the semi-finals and went out on penalties.

In the 2013/2014 season, Aston Villa only won the FA Cup.

Runner-up in the Premier League, semi-finals of the Champions League, semi-finals of the English League Cup, champion of the FA Cup, such results are actually not too bad, and even acceptable for most Premier League giants.

However, considering that Aston Villa had just been crowned seven crowns before, and then only won one cup championship, this is indeed a bit 'unacceptable'.

Therefore, some media predict that Aston Villa will adjust the team's lineup this summer.

Now, Aston Villa's first person to leave the team has appeared, and it is the new FIFA Golden Ball Mr. Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

...

However, after careful analysis by the media (with hindsight), everyone seems to be less surprised by Ibrahimovic's transfer and departure. After Ibrahimovic won the Golden Globe, the Simovic's agent Mino Raiola clamored in a high-profile way for Aston Villa to give Ibrahimovic a raise, and it was even rumored that Raiola asked for a weekly salary of 450,000 pounds for his clients.

The relationship between Aston Villa coach Fang Jue and Raiola deteriorated sharply. At that time, the fuse was laid for Ibrahimovic's transfer and departure.

Unlike the previous media reaction of Bell's transfer from Aston Villa to Real Madrid, this time some media agreed with Aston Villa's sale of Ibrahimovic to Paris.

Without him, Paris gave too much money.

51 million euros!

For a 32-year-old veteran, such a transfer fee was unbelievable in the past.

Of course, no one said that Parisians have a lot of money. This is mainly because of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's Golden Globe bonus. This is a superstar who just won the FIFA Golden Globe Award. Dunville only won one cup championship in the season that just ended, but Ibrahimovic's data is not bad, on the contrary it is very good.

The 32-year-old Ibrahimovic's competitive state has amazed many experts.

In the words of The Times, Fang Jue helped Ibrahimovic win the Golden Globe, and then the Swede left a high transfer fee in return.

Subsequently, the Sun disclosed another breaking news about Ibrahimovic's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. The annual salary of 10,000 euros, facing such a sky-high salary, neither Ibrahimovic nor Raiola can refuse, which also makes Ibrahimovic surpass Real Madrid's Ronaldo and Barcelona Messi, once again became the working emperor of football.

...

The Guardian used the term 'triple win' to describe Ibrahimovic's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain:

Aston Villa got a sky-high transfer fee, and the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic with a weekly salary of 260,000 pounds also allowed Aston Villa to free up salary space. Twelve-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic was able to sell the last chance for a sky-high price.

Ibrahimovic joined Paris, and the 22 million euros, the most lucrative after-tax annual salary in football history, is enough to satisfy Zlatan.

Paris Saint-Germain, who is not short of money, won the new Mr. Ballon d'Or who has maintained a fairly good competitive state. This is of great significance for improving the influence and strength of this Ligue 1 giant team.

Ibrahimovic has transferred and left, and now the real forwards in the Aston Villa team are only Lewandowski and Vardy.

Aston Villa is bound to need reinforcements on the front line.

Just when the media was speculating about which potential targets Aston Villa would lock on the front line, Aston Villa officially announced the striker signings two days later.

Aston Villa Club announced that the 21-year-old Belgian young center Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea Club officially transferred to join at a price of 28.1 million pounds. The club signed a five-year contract with the Belgian young center.

The Times columnist Duncan Casteul commented on this transfer, and he used the phrase Fang Jue finally got what he wanted.

Aston Villa lost the key to the league last season. One of the important reasons is that Lewandowski and De Bruyne were injured successively. Aston Villa's offensive strength was seriously damaged. When the window opened, Fang Jue tried to introduce Lukaku, but Chelsea has been reluctant to let him go.

Now, after more than half a year of negotiations, Aston Villa has finally won Lukaku, and Fang Jue's longing for Lewandowski's substitute is in place.

The Guardian analyzed from another angle that Aston Villa's ambitions for the new season are huge. Just to introduce Lewandowski's substitute, Aston Villa is willing to spend 28.1 million pounds. Fang Jue's ambitions for the new season.

...

The words of the Guardian did not fall. Only four days later, European football broke out with heavy transfer news.

The Real Madrid Club announced on its official website that Colombian star James Rodriguez has joined, and Ronaldo will sign a contract with Real Madrid for 6 years until 2020.

Although Real Madrid did not disclose the transfer fee, the powerful Spanish media still got a more accurate figure. Ronaldo's transfer fee reached 80 million euros, and according to the number of appearances of Ronaldo in Real Madrid, AS Dunville can take another 8 million euros at most. In this case, Ronaldo's total transfer fee will reach 88 million euros.

In addition, Ronaldo's annual salary in Real Madrid reached 7 million euros, which is 1.5 times his salary in Aston Villa, and he will wear No. 10 in the new season.

Ronaldo moved to Real Madrid, and Florentino succeeded in poaching from Aston Villa again two years after poaching Bell.

This transfer detonated European football.

There are media reports that Ronaldo joined Real Madrid because Aston Villa did not meet his salary requirements.

However, both Ha Mei herself and Fang Jue denied this.

The Birmingham Evening News also reported that, in fact, the difference between Aston Villa and Ronaldo on the salary issue is not particularly big.

In fact, the reason for the transfer of the Colombian star who shined in the World Cup is very straightforward. His position in Aston Villa has been strongly impacted by De Bruyne. In addition, Pogba's rapid growth is also certain. To a certain extent, Ronaldo is not so important to Aston Villa.

In addition, there is another reason, that is, Fang Jue is already considering taking back the South Korean international Sun Xingmin who is on loan.

Prior to this, Aston Villa loaned Sun Xingmin to the Bundesliga team Hamburg for two consecutive seasons. Korean youngsters performed well in Hamburg.

Aston Villa is actively trying to obtain a labor certificate for Sun Xingmin. Once the labor certificate can be successfully obtained, Sun Xingmin will stay in the Aston Villa first team in the new season and will not be rented out again.

Of course, facing the call of Real Madrid, the Colombian boy didn't seem to be too determined to refuse.

Although Aston Villa is now a giant, it is Real Madrid after all.

...

On July 22, 2014, Aston Villa's new season training day.

A large number of Aston Villa fans gathered at Aston Villa's new training base to welcome the start of the team's new season.

There was no training arranged on the first day of the training camp, mainly to conduct physical examinations on the players.

Those guys who indulged in the holidays and didn't follow the dietitian's advice to plan their meals properly are now focusing on losing weight and building muscle.

Fang Jue just showed his face, chatted with the players for a while and left.

His focus now is on the transfer market.

The first thing to consider is the signing of the goalkeeper position.

After the end of last season, the Italian veteran Cudicini announced his retirement. Now, Aston Villa's goalkeeper position is only one Menter Stegen and three Elliotts trained by his own youth training.

Aston Villa need to find a qualified replacement for Ter Stegen.

Fang Jue locked his target on Arsenal's Polish veteran Fabianski.

The contract between Fabianski and Arsenal has expired. To be exact, Bianski is now a free agent.

Fabianski, who originally planned to join Swansea, received a call from Fang Jue.

Fang Jue did not fool Fabianski. He clearly told the Polish goalkeeper that Aston Villa's No. 1 goal will be Ter Stegen. If there are no special circumstances, he can only come to Aston Villa. It is the second door.

This requires Fabianski to make a multiple-choice question, whether to go to Swansea as the main goalkeeper, or come to Aston Villa to sit on the bench and win the championship.

In the end, Fabianski's choice was to sign with Aston Villa.

Having played for Arsenal for seven years, Fabianski has not been able to win any championships with the team. The 29-year-old Polish goalkeeper thought that his career would be like this. If he can come to Aston Villa mixed a few champions, which is naturally excellent.

And Fang Jue also promised that in England's domestic cups, he would rotate as much as possible in the goalkeeper position and give Fabianski playing time, which satisfied the Polish goalkeeper.

Two days later, Fabianski passed the medical examination, and the Aston Villa Club officially announced the news that the Polish goalkeeper would join the team freely.

...

Five days later, Aston Villa played a warm-up match in which they beat visiting Belgian side Standard Liege 3-1.

That is, after the end of the game on this day, Aston Villa Club officially announced that the team's Japanese international Shinji Kagawa officially joined Manchester United at a price of 23 million pounds. Aston Villa Club wishes Shinji Kagawa all the best in Manchester United.

Ronaldo went to Real Madrid, and now Shinji Kagawa has also transferred and left. Coupled with the departure of Ibrahimovic, Aston Villa's creativity and activity in the midfield have been questioned.

However, just two days later, the Aston Villa Club officially announced a blockbuster signing.

Aston Villa Club officially announced that the club successfully introduced 25-year-old Chilean striker Alex Sanchez from Barcelona with a transfer fee of 29 million pounds. Aston Villa signed a five-year contract with Sanchez. Wearing the No. 17 jersey left by Shinji Kagawa.

Sanchez joined Aston Villa, the news shocked many people.

It was even more shocking than Zlatan Ibrahimovic's move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Mainly too sudden:

Previously, the media got the news that the closest to Sanchez was Arsenal. Wenger was very fond of Sanchez. Arsenal had been chasing Sanchez for more than half a year. It is said that Sanchez will come to London for a medical examination in two days. Unexpectedly, Sanchez did not come to London. Instead, Aston Villa suddenly officially announced the addition of the Chilean.

Later, more rumors broke out. The Sun broke the news that because Aston Villa suddenly intercepted Sanchez for not talking about martial arts, Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger was very angry, and the professor even expressed anger. To break up with Fang Jue.

However, even the Sun expressed disbelief that the two would break up. It was rumored that the two had broken up several times, but none of them succeeded.

Fang Jue felt wronged.

Wrong, you Arsenal are indeed talking about the introduction of Sanchez.

However, as long as you don't get a certificate, you can get involved.

Besides, it wasn't that he used any despicable means to forcibly intercept Hu. In fact, Aston Villa's transfer fee of 29.1 million pounds was 700,000 pounds less than Arsenal's 29.8 million pounds double-teaming fee. When Sanchez learned of Aston Villa's invitation, he immediately nodded and expressed his willingness to come to Aston Villa...

After Sanchez joined the team, Fang Jue wrote the current team's lineup on the tactical board. He was thinking about which positions needed to be supplemented or cleaned.

The first is the offensive end.

In the forward position, the team has Lewandowski, Vardy and Lukaku, and the center position is relatively sufficient.
