1616 Really can't keep it!
"Real Madrid really has a transfer budget of 600 million euros."
When Yang Yang returned to the hotel room and sat down with Wei Zheng, Van Gaal, Van der Sar and others, the first sentence surprised everyone present because this number was really too surprising.
"Good, 600 million yuan, who are you planning to buy?"
"Real Madrid really wants to take our Ajax in one fell swoop, right?"
"Fuck! Can 600 million euros buy our entire team? Are you thinking too cheap?"
"That's right, look at the current Deloitte player market value assessment. There are four players with more than 100 million, and there are more players with more than 50 million euros. Do you think 600 million can buy our entire team?"
"This Champions League will definitely increase our players' value tonight, but 600 million is really too much."
"How do you plan to spend this money?"
Everyone was amazed when they said and said something, but they were also confident.
Nowadays, Ajax is no longer the Ajax one year ago, and it is also the new champion of the Champions League.
Van Gaal listened to his colleagues' discussions, but his attention fell on Yang Yang. When everyone finished discussing, he asked: "How did you talk to Real Madrid?"
"I want Frankie DeJong." Yang Yang smiled. He had never concealed his appreciation for the Dutch midfielder.
This is also the only player he designated to want, and the others are recommended by Real Madrid.
"This player's value is not cheap." Van der Sa laughed.
Yang Yang shrugged, "You want to negotiate with Real Madrid. It's useless to tell me, I won't participate."
"I have to say that this kid is indeed very potential. With his current progress momentum, he will definitely become the top midfielder in Europe in time. You are familiar with him and going to Real Madrid with you is indeed a very ideal choice." Van Gaal nodded.
Modric and David Silva are both old and are about to retreat. Tony Kroos's form has also declined this season. At present, the real main player in Real Madrid's midfielder is De Bruyne, but he is not the core main player.
Isco is like a six-mechanical divine sword, which is sometimes effective but sometimes unreliable, which is also very uneasy.
If Frankie DeJong goes to Real Madrid, he will definitely be reused.
But this is not the point Yang Yang wants to say.
"Frankie DeJong's transfer is a foregone conclusion. Selling him now is a good thing for us and the players."
Yang Yang had already made a decision on this matter with the management.
Forced staying Frankie DeJong is not a good thing for Ajax and players.
"In addition to Frankie De Jong, Ndongbele's possibility of leaving the team is quite high. Teams such as Juventus, Tottenham and Manchester United are very interested in him. If both midfielders leave all at once, we must consider who will take over."
Yang Yang's words made everyone present think deeply.
Technical Director Van Gaal immediately took over the conversation, "I talked to Tenhager. There is no problem with Odge's replacement of Frankie DeJong. Both Sone and Rosario have the ability to replace Ndongbele, but Van der Beck can't leave. Our technical team's suggestion is to let two out of three midfielders and one."
Van der Beck is the main player in the Eredivisie this season and has performed quite well, but in the Champions League, it is a rotation and substitute. The main player is Yang Yang, so his current momentum is not as strong as Frankie De Jong or Ndongbele. The players' willingness to leave the team is not particularly strong. If you keep him for another year, there should be no problem.
"Yes, and in half a year, Rainier will be eighteen years old and can land in the Dutch Eredivisie." Yang Yang made the decision.
At that time, Ajax bought three Brazilian young players in one go, namely Rainier, Peron and Giovani. However, due to their age, they are currently playing in Brazil. Rainier will not leave Brazil after he is 18 years old and join Ajax, but Ajax arranged a special coach to follow them.
Yang Yang's old friend Maxwell is Ajax's full-time Brazilian scout, and he is fully responsible for contacting them.
"Where is the front court?" Yang Yang asked.
"Trident Nerez, Jovic and Sancho, if teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are taking action, Jovic will definitely not be able to keep it. My opinion is to do my best to keep Sancho and strive to keep Nerez."
Van Gaal said this and paused before continuing, "I talked to Sancho. I told him that he is still young and it is not a good thing to enter the four major leagues too early, especially when going to the giant teams, so I hope he can continue to stay in the team, practice more, and wait until he is more mature before going, he said he will consider it."
If you consider it, it means that the players do have this intention.
If Frankie DeJong, Ndongbele and Jovic both leave the team, Naudgao, Van der Beck and Sancho will become the leading stars of Ajax and be valued, which will help their overall strength and performance go further.
"Our technical department has researched it. Even if Jovic and Nerez are gone, we have Haaland, Mullen, Stens and Boadu. In addition, Maxwell recently recommended a Brazilian player to us."
"who?"
"Gabriel Martinelli."
Yang Yang frowned and shook his head to say that he had never heard of it.
"This player has just turned 18 years old, and has Italian nationality, plays as a striker, and can compete in multiple frontcourt positions. Currently playing for Ituano Club in Brazil, he was selected for the Best Rookie and Best Team in the 2019 season of the São Paulo State League, and has been selected for the training team for the Brazilian national team to compete in the Copa America."
After seeing Yang Yang nodding, Van Gaal continued: "Two years ago, he tried out at Manchester United and other European teams, but he was unable to stay. After two years of thrashing, his progress has become more obvious."
"How much is the value?" Yang Yang asked.
"Get the first move, five million euros, if other European teams participate in the competition, it's hard to say."
Yang Yang nodded again and said, "You guys make your own ideas."
Today's Ajax is no longer the Ajax a year ago, now Ajax is rich and powerful.
Just now, Mennon Herren of the commercial department told Yang Yang that after winning the Champions League this time, Ajax is expected to receive substantial income of more than 100 million euros, including the championship prize, and at least 200 million to 300 million potential income. He is confident that he will cash out the potential income in the next two years.
In addition, what is more important is the soaring value of players, which will bring Ajax extremely generous fiscal revenue.
It can be said that Ajax has completely escaped from the financial quagmire of the past years and has been reborn.
As the Champions League champion, Ajax's target of signing will naturally not be stingy.
A potential rookie of five million euros is very consistent with Ajax's investment standards.
Of course, Ajax is also very cautious about these signings. After all, investment is for value-added and to sell at a higher price in the future. Therefore, Ajax will continue to increase efforts in recruiting and selecting materials or in player training, especially in various software and hardware facilities.
Yang Yang is still very confident about Ajax's frontcourt players.
Needless to say, Haaland, who became famous after joining the team for half a season, is that Mullen, Stens and Boadu are all young players with great potential. In addition, if Sancho stays in the team, Ajax will still be quite competitive in the frontcourt next season.
Three midfielders, letting two go and leaving one, and the frontcourt trident is almost the same. Ajax is still relatively abundant in the talent reserves in the midfield, but the defense is obviously not the case.
Ashraf has been favored by most European giants, while Dricht and Militon have been sought after by the entire European football world. Taliafico also has many teams flocking to them. If Ajax's entire defense is exposed, the blow to Ajax will be disastrous.
Because Ajax does not currently have enough personnel reserves to deal with the restructuring of the defense line.
"The right back is the most abundant. We have Dumfries. This season, Mazravi also performed well as a right back. There are also young players from the youth training camp, Dumfries can also play as a central defender."
"If Taliafico leaves the team, Jue Ge can be competent for the main position, but we need a qualified left back substitute, so we must sign in this area."
When Van Gaal said this, he shook his head and sighed, "The most troublesome thing now is the central defender, because De Rigt and Militon have performed too bravely in the past season. Now it is not a question of whether we want to stay or not, but we can't keep it at all."
Today, European football players' value has skyrocketed, not only midfielders, but also defenders.
Van Dijk, Maguire and other central defenders have successively created sky-high transfers, which shows how scarce European football is for outstanding central defenders.
Ajax, the two central defenders, are both the hottest young rookies in European football in the past season, and they are young and powerful. Let me ask, which giant club doesn’t want such a player?
If they want to list their suitors, it is estimated that the giants in Europe can be included, even Liverpool, which already has Van Dijk and Matip.
Ajax really can't keep such a player!
But if they all left, Dumfries and Feltman would not be able to replace their positions.
"Is it possible to let Dricht stay in the team?" Wei Zheng asked curiously, "After all, he is only nineteen years old. Staying in the team and continuing to exercise is like Sancho. Is it feasible?"
De Rigt is also the captain of Ajax, and staying in the team is of great significance.
Van Gaal shook his head, "It's hard, Barcelona and Real Madrid have entered the game, as well as Manchester City and Juventus and other giants. This is not much the same as Sancho. De Rigt's performance in the past season is really amazing, especially the maturity."
Yang Yang understood Van Gaal's meaning.
To put it simply, Sancho stayed in the Dutch Eredivisie and led the team to play in the Dutch Eredivisie and the Champions League, and could continue to improve, but De Ligt led the team to win the Champions League as the captain and the pillar of the defense. What else can he pursue if he stayed?
"Then is there any way to buy a powerful central defender?" Yang Yang asked.
