An announcement was released on the official website of Sporting Gijon that the team's Spanish striker David Lago has officially transferred to the Spanish second division team Getafe for a price of 800,000 euros.
This local striker, whose playing time was squeezed out by the 17-year-old Benzema, could only be reduced to Sporting Gijon's fourth forward or even fifth forward. In the end, he chose to leave, and also exchanged eight players for Sporting Gijon.
The income of 100,000 euros can be regarded as a final contribution to his beloved team.
Leon's flight arrived in Madrid. When he was transferring to Gijon at Madrid Airport, he turned on his mobile phone and received a text message from David Lago. This young man who had transferred to Gijon did not have any resentment.
With a grateful attitude, I thanked Li Ang.
"Coach, thank you. It's a pleasure to have played for you. I will never forget when we lifted the championship trophy at the Bernabeu. I will never forget the moment when we were promoted to La Liga. Thank you, coach!"
Li Ang was surprised when he received this text message. He thought that David Lago had complaints against him. Li Ang had previously comforted David Lago and said that he would try to give him more playing time. However,
Benzema's rapid growth has made Liang's promise empty words. Now, David Lago is also forced to flee Gijon.
David Lago's words of thanks were sincere, and Leon could feel it, which also touched him very much.
"Good luck, David, play football seriously, enjoy life happily, and always remember one thing: you are great!" Li Ang thought for a while and sent this message to the young man who is no longer his player.
SMS. Then turn off the phone again.
***********
More than two hours later, he arrived in Gijon on a flight from Madrid. When he turned on his phone again, he found several missed calls, all from Banderas.
"I hope it's good news, Pablo." Leon called Banderas' cell phone and said with a smile.
"Sorry, Lee, I may have to disappoint you. There is more bad news than good news." Banderas' slightly tired voice came from the other end of the phone.
"That means there is good news." Li Ang's heart sank, but he still said with a smile.
Half an hour later, Sporting Gijon’s Malayo training base.
In the team's head coach's office.
Leon, his assistant Pablo Banderas, and assistant coach Scott Terry held a closed-door meeting.
Sporting Gijon asked Hamburg to buy Mertesacker, but the Hamburg club did not refuse directly. This shows that the club is waiting for a price and is not opposed to selling Mertesacker. However, the problem lies with the player himself.
Per Mertesacker rejected Sporting Gijon's invitation. The German international made it clear that he did not want to play abroad in Germany.
This refusal was clear and unequivocal, and was not an excuse to ask for a high salary.
After listening to Banderas' report, Li Ang muttered unhappily, "A German who loves his family."
Although there are many successful examples of German stars playing in other leagues, such as Inter Milan's troika, as well as stars such as Bierhoff and Klinsmann, overall, German players are generally reluctant to go abroad.
To play football.
Germany's economic level is the best in Europe, and domestic conditions in all aspects are also top-notch! In addition, Germans are very traditional and cautious, so it is normal to be content with the status quo and enjoy a small amount of wealth!
In addition, there is another important reason. The Bundesliga has its super giant Bayern Munich. This giant, known as the Hollywood of the Bundesliga, is the dream of almost all German players. It can be said that the entire Bundesliga is transfusing Bayern Munich with blood. The best Germany
Players will always be acquired by Bayern Munich in the end.
Bayern Munich is such a good place, Germany’s domestic economy is good, public security is good, and the environment is good. These German players generally lack the motivation and passion to go out and make a career...
Mertesacker himself refused to go abroad to play football, which completely blocked Li Ang's plan to poach players.
***********
As for Kompany, the monster player in the CM03/04 game, he is pursued by many wealthy clubs. Anderlecht is also a Belgian giant. They can be said to be dismissive of the price inquiry from Sporting Gijon.
Gu's attitude, Anderlecht's reply was even humiliating: First of all, Anderlecht will not sell Kompany, and secondly, selling people is not something a team like Sporting Gijon can do.
Opportunity comes into play.
In short, in a word, Kompany is not something you can worry about, so go to bed quickly.
Banderas seemed very angry and complained to Leon about the arrogance of Anderlecht.
"What do they have to be proud of? We are fourth in La Liga. If you are not convinced, we two teams will play a game and we don't know who will win and who will lose." Banderas said angrily.
Li Ang's expression was also ugly. He thought that Anderlecht would refuse. After all, among his four goals, Kompany was the most difficult one. However, he did not expect that Anderlecht would be so arrogant. Not only
He refused and humiliated Sporting Gijon in this way. In fact, this is very inappropriate. If other teams want to buy your players and you don't agree, just refuse. There is no need to do this. But Anderleich
Te just did this, and for no other reason, they looked down on Sporting Gijon, and thought they were inferior to Sporting Gijon.
Li Ang exclaimed, 'Arrogant', he thought of this word! As Banderas said, what's so good about Anderlecht? If Sporting Gijon and Anderlecht play now, who will win?
I really don’t know. It can even be said that Li Ang has great confidence in his team to win against Anderlecht.
Anderlecht, very good, he remembered this account!
***********
In addition, what Li Ang did not expect was that Valencia coach Ranieri was more concerned about Albiol. Faced with Sporting Gijon's purchase, Valencia declined.
This makes Li Ang feel quite regretful. He still admires Albiol. If he can get this young Spanish central defender, in the next few seasons, the central defender combination of Albiol and Pepe will be enough to make him more capable.
He was relieved.
Li Ang didn't know. In fact, Ranieri was not particularly concerned about Albiol, who was on loan from the team. However, the purchase intention from Sporting Gijon made Ranieri alert and he began to pay attention.
Ranieri's attitude towards this young central defender who had not noticed it before was very simple: Li Ang has a more accurate eye for people. Since the Chinese has paid attention to Albiol, then, isn't this worthy of causing enough concern in Valencia?
Do you pay attention?
If Li Ang knew that it was because of his purchase that Valencia Club paid attention to Albiol earlier than in the course of history, he would probably be very depressed.
Mertesacker, Kompany and Albiol are all gone.
The only good news comes from the Eredivisie giants Ajax, to which Vermaelen belongs.
