Looking at the quotation on his desk, Li Ang couldn't help but cursed secretly: Old fox.
This is a quotation from Serie A giant Juventus. Juventus quoted 5 million euros for Carlos.
Objectively speaking, this offer is more sincere. You must know that Carlos is only seventeen years old. At this age, it is relatively rare in today's football to be purchased by a top Serie A giant for five million euros.
Li Ang did not know that when Sporting Gijon played an away game against Barcelona, Juventus general manager Moggi watched the game in the stands. If there had not been a stadium conflict between Sporting Gijon and Barcelona, Moggi would have appeared in the stands.
This should have become a focus of the media after the game, but after the game, almost all the media's attention was focused on the conflict on the court and the post-game press conference.
Therefore, Li Ang did not know how Moggi got to know and took a fancy to Carlos, but he knew that Juventus's quotation must be due to Moggi's decision. Among the three giants in Juventus
, the division of labor is relatively clear, and Moji is mainly responsible for player transactions.
***********
Li Ang rejected Juventus's purchase of Carlos without hesitation. Just kidding, let alone 5 million euros, even 50 million euros. Li Ang would not sell Carlos. He knew that in a few years it would be enough.
Top defensive midfielders in the world are scarce. After a few years, good defensive midfielders have become more and more rare. Top defensive midfielders are even more valuable and marketable. Not to mention, Carlos can be said to be his 'brother-in-law'
has an identity and belongs to the direct lineage of the direct lineage.
However, Moggi can take a fancy to Carlos, and if he decisively dares to spend 5 million euros to buy this 17-year-old boy, Li Ang can't help but look at Moggi with admiration. The invisible godfather of Italian football really has two skills.
Brush.
Juventus wanted to covet his players, which made Li Ang suddenly interested in Juventus players. Of course, Li Ang did not dare to make plans for the players of the Juventus first team. Those stars would not like Gijon.
Sporting is a small temple, and even if these stars are willing to come to Sporting Gijon, Sporting Gijon cannot afford the wages of those players.
Li Ang set his sights on Juventus's youth training camp to see if there were any good prospects. Then, Li Ang was disappointed. As an old top Italian club, Juventus's results in youth training are as good as those of Inter Milan and AC Milan.
There is no comparison. What this team likes most is to buy potential stocks in their 24s and 5s, rather than cultivating the Mavericks themselves.
According to Li Ang's memory, the only commendable players in Juventus' youth training camp are the players. One is Marchisio, who was later called "Little Ma" by Chinese fans, and the other was later in AC Milan.
The short-lived Nocerino, the other is the short player Giovinco nicknamed the "Atomic Ant".
***********
Marchisio is 18 years old and is the captain of the Juventus youth team. Li Ang still knows himself that he cannot poach such a player.
Nocerino is currently on loan at Serie B club Genoa by Juventus. Juventus does not pay much attention to the later 'Nocerino'. If Li Ang wants to poach someone, he may not be able to succeed. However, Li Ang
He is not very interested in Nocerino, because with Carlos here, he is not very interested in cultivating another little demon in this position, not to mention that Nocerino's talent is relatively average, in the season in AC Milan
Highlight performance can be said to be a 'magic skill'. It can be said that a player's entire career has been exhausted in one season, and then he is lost to everyone.
As for Giovinco, Li Ang has no interest. There are many young people with such outstanding skills in Spanish football, and they are of high quality and low price.
Juventus actually had no one they could recruit, which made Li Ang a little bored. However, as soon as he lowered his head, he saw a report on his desk. Li Ang was thoughtful, and then his eyes lit up.
This is an injury report submitted by the team's doctor, Mr. Marotta, about the team's right back Dorado and Ivanovic. It will take two months for Ivanovic to recover from injury and return to the team.
Time, and Dorado's injury has recurred again, and it will take at least a month before he can recover from the injury and return to the team.
Therefore, in this case, Sporting Gijon's right back position can be said to be stretched thin.
Then, a name suddenly appeared in Li Ang's mind. This was the absolute main right back of Juventus later. This person was not a product of the Juventus youth training. Later, he was recruited by Juventus when he was in his prime.
Tusi poached him.
This is a big treasure. The most important thing is that it is of high quality and low price.
Should we cut off Juventus?
Do you want it?!
***********
Finally, Li Ang opened his notebook, wrote the name of the person solemnly, and then drew a circle around the name... to show his importance.
He decided to discuss and inquire with the team doctor about the injuries of Dorado and Ivanovic. If it was really necessary, he would naturally take action when it was time to take action.
Yes, he was 'inspired' by Moggi and Juventus, and the player he thought of was the Swiss player Lichtsteiner. This right back was nicknamed 'Shi Tai' by Chinese fans. He is of high quality and low price.
A typical example of absolute practicality. He later supported half of Juventus' success on the right wing.
The most important thing is that Lichtsteiner is only twenty years old now and still plays for the Grasshopper team in the Swiss domestic league. Although Grasshopper is also a Swiss giant, after all, it is only a domestic club in Switzerland with influence and strength.
It is incomparable with the top five European league teams. Liang's memory is that Lichtsteiner transferred to Lille in Ligue 1 next summer. The young main right back of the Swiss Grasshopper team only cost
Lille is only 65 euros, which is definitely an affordable and conscientious price.
Just because of this conscientious price, Li Ang couldn't help but be tempted.
He kept this in mind.
***********
Two days later, in the sixteenth round of La Liga, Sporting Gijon was tied 1-1 away by Real Sociedad.
Ribery's return has greatly improved Sporting Gijon's left-side attack. However, Carlos's continued suspension has, to some extent, weakened Sporting Gijon's control and interception in the midfield, which also made Sporting Gijon's attack more difficult.
Sporting Gijon's defense was not stable enough and lacked sufficient protection in the midfield, which also made it difficult for Sporting Gijon to achieve the tactical effect that Li Ang expected. In the end, both sides scored one goal each and ended in a draw.
In the fourteenth round of the league, Sporting Gijon drew with Levante 0-0.
In the fifteenth round of the league, Sporting Gijon lost to Villarreal 2-3.
In the sixteenth round of the league, Sporting Gijon tied with Real Sociedad one to one.
In the three games, Sporting Gijon had two draws and one loss. The performance can be said to be quite bad. However, for the players and fans of Sporting Gijon, there is reason to cheer and rejoice, because the three performances of the team coach Liang
The game ban has finally passed, and the person who can reassure them the most can appear on the coaching bench again! This is more important than anything else! We must cheer them up!
They believe that when this person comes back, all problems will be gone!
"He's back!" - This was the front page title of "Voice of Gijon" after Sporting Gijon's 1-0 away game against Real Sociedad. They didn't even mention the game at all, but instead mentioned it all
All attention was focused on the team's head coach Liang who had "returned from the ban". The words "He is back" expressed the excitement and expectations of the Gijon people!
