Li Ang has returned to Gijon and is still three days away from the start of the official training camp for the new season.
The whole city seems to be full of vitality. The joining of a championship-level player like Hierro has made Sporting Gijon a team that has attracted much attention, and the media and fans in Gijon are also very encouraged. From the overall perspective of Sporting Gijon
Generally speaking, it can be regarded as a young team. They are energetic, energetic and pursuing, but lack experience. The joining of a champion player like Hierro can bring young people the experience and stability they need.
.
Of course, it is not without noise. "Post de Gijon" continues to sing the opposite tune this time. They doubt whether Hierro, who has stayed away from the mainstream European leagues and has been retiring in Qatar for a year, can still adapt to the La Liga game.
There are other Spanish media that share the same view as "Post de Gijon".
Some media even said harshly that since Hierro has left Real Madrid and Europe, he can just retire in the Middle East. There is no need to come back, let alone joining a team with a doubtful future like Sporting Gijon.
This could end up humiliating Hierro's career.
Li Ang was furious about this. On the one hand, it was because these media questioned Hierro, and also, what did it mean that Sporting Gijon's future was in doubt? What did it mean that his Sporting Gijon had humiliated Hierro?!
Li Ang published an article in his column in "Voice of Gijon" to address the doubts. In this article, he praised Hierro highly and said that Hierro is in very good condition, regardless of physical condition.
There is no problem at all with his mental state. And for those media who questioned his youth team, Li Ang even used vulgar words unceremoniously. His team will let those people eat what they said today and fart in the future.
Going back.
Liang admitted that some of the media's doubts about his team are not unreasonable, such as Sporting Gijon's lack of experience in La Liga, the players being too young, etc.
However, he must respond. As the helmsman of this team, he must maintain confidence in the future and stabilize the morale of the military. He does not want to find that after the players start training in two days, they will find that they are surrounded by doubts.
At this time, Li Ang felt even more lucky to have Hierro join. He believed that having such a veteran in the team would benefit the team a lot, whether in training or in games.
Liang returned to Gijon, and now he is focusing on cleaning up the current players.
Six players have been introduced: Ribery, Pepe, Grosso, Di Natale, Modric, and Hierro. There are new players joining from the defense to the midfield to the offensive line.
Although this is still far from filling the gaps in his plan, the problem of redundancy of players must be solved first before continuing to look for targets in the transfer market.
Of course, the funding issue is also key. Only by selling players first can we have the funds to continue signings.
The players on the list that Li Ang handed over to the club's general manager Benita Arango began to work. In addition, Li Ang had already communicated with some players and expressed that there were no guarantees in the team's future blueprint.
Their position also caused these players to take action to 'save themselves' and they began to contact new clubs.
The first person to leave the team was the midfielder Fulco. Three La Liga teams were interested in this player. In the end, Messi City's offer of 400,000 euros won Li Ang's approval.
At 9 o'clock in the morning on July 15, the official website of Sporting Gijon announced that the team's midfielder Fulco had transferred to the Spanish second division team Messi City for 400,000 euros.
Sporting Gijon fans did not have much reaction to Fulco's departure. Last season, this player was a substitute, and his departure was foreseeable.
Then there is the team's center back Dias, the player whose main position was replaced by Yago last season. Yago has returned to Celta Vigo on loan. This gives Dias hope of regaining the main position, but, yeah
The arrival of Luo made Dias see clearly his future in Gijon: the head coach still looked down upon him and would not give him a starting position.
Therefore, Dias chose to leave. This 29-year-old veteran, with many years of experience in the Spanish Second Division, still has no shortage of suitors.
In the end, Elche's offer of 500,000 euros convinced Sporting Gijon to let him go.
Dias has been the main center back of Sporting Gijon for many consecutive seasons. It was only in the second half of last season that he was taken away from the main position under Li Ang. Therefore, this can be the strength of the main defender in the Spanish Second Division. Fifty
The price of 10,000 euros is quite appropriate.
At 12 noon on the 15th, the official website of Sporting Gijon announced that the team's center back Diaz had transferred to Elche Club for a price of 500,000 euros.
Regarding the departure of Dias, Sporting Gijon and the fans have sent their blessings. Although Dias is no longer the main player after Li Ang took over the team last season, this player has played for Sporting Gijon for many years and can be
He dedicated his most golden years as a defender to Sporting Gijon, and the fans remain respectful and grateful to him.
In addition, Sporting Gijon's important substitute forward Matt Bilic last season was loaned by Sporting Gijon from Zaragoza. Liang wanted to buy out this player, but Zaragoza had no choice but to buy it out.
During the season when they were eliminated from the Copa del Rey by Sporting Gijon, there was dissatisfaction between the two clubs, and Matt Bilic also showed his own characteristics. Therefore, Zaragoza refused to discuss Matt with Sporting Gijon.
- Negotiating the transfer of Bilic. In a word, even if this player is sold, he will not be sold to you Sporting Gijon.
This made Li Ang very angry.
Sporting Gijon and Zaragoza originally had no animosity, but now there is a new story in the bad relationship between the two parties.
Then at the forward position of the team, David Poza, who has been unable to play in the game, also chose to transfer and leave. He went to the same La Liga team. Salamanca is his new destination. He hopes that
Hong Jingjing got 200,000 in exchange. (To be continued.)
