Chapter 121 Experienced Striker

If you can talk about it, it means you can talk about it.

The biggest fear in negotiations is that there is no negotiation. As long as we can negotiate, it is nothing more than a matter of conditions. When the two sides are almost in harmony, it will be done.

Therefore, Noriya did not stay to negotiate the subsequent details, but handed them over to Frye and returned to Southampton.

In the end, Blind was worth three million pounds. This price is not low, but it is not high either. As long as his performance can be better, he will definitely be able to earn back the money.

Blind himself has no objections to playing football in the UK. Players trained in the Eredivisie go to the five major leagues anyway, and he is indeed not the main player in Ajax, even though he has a legendary Ajax father.

, but Ajax has too many legends, and Ajax will not look at him differently just because of this.

When Blind signed the contract, Ji Ya also finalized a backup central defender.

It's actually difficult to choose a backup defender. For example, Ferguson contacted Noriya and said that Brown and O'Shea, two of Manchester United's two core substitutes, would be transferred this summer. He asked Noriya if he was interested, and he promised that he would get good quality and low price.

However, Ji Ya gave up after asking about their personal opinions. The two of them had enough playing as substitutes at Manchester United. They just wanted to go to a place where they could play as the main force, and this was something Ji Ya couldn't promise.

It seems to him that the main team next season will still be the partnership of Lovren and Font. These two people already have the strength of the Premier League and work well together.

So Brown and O'Shea later went to Sunderland at the same time. The two of them were worth only 6 million pounds in total, which was indeed considered a bargain.

Noriya next set his sights on the relegated West Ham United - the Hammers were also miserable last season. They have outstanding players such as Parker, Demba Ba, and Bentley. According to their strength, they should not be defeated.

They were relegated, and ended up being relegated to the bottom of the Premier League.

Of course, relegated teams cannot afford Premier League players, so West Ham United has now become a supermarket.

There are people in their defense that Kiya likes. For example, former England international Matthew Upson is 32 years old this year, but he is in good condition. Being a main substitute is not a big problem, but Southampton contact

After recruiting him, he still lost to Stoke City - because Stoke City promised the main position, the 32-year-old Upson has not thought about staying on the bench for a long time. He is West Ham

The main force of the alliance.

However, another central defender was persuaded by Southampton.

Thirty-one-year-old former Croatian international player, Radoslav Kovac.

Croatia has a pair of very famous Kovac brothers, but this Kovac has nothing to do with the other two Kovacs. He has been playing in the Czech and Russian leagues and only joined West Ham United three seasons ago. The first

He was a substitute in the first season, the main player in the second season, and was reduced to a substitute last season, playing only six times. However, he still wanted to stay in the Premier League, so he accepted the request to be Southampton's main substitute and rejected Basel.

transfer application.

He is 1.89 meters tall and has excellent defensive and head-on confrontation abilities. He can play as a central defender or a defensive midfielder. As a substitute, this versatile attribute is still very popular.

"Kovac, Chambers, Jenkinson, Luke Shaw... such a substitute defense line is enough." Noriya thought in his mind.

"Do we need an experienced forward? After all, we are still very young as a whole." Benali asked Noriya.

"Experienced striker? How rich? The one who is going to retire soon?" Ji Ya laughed.

"The kind that has already scored fourteen goals in the World Cup," Benali replied.

Ji Ya was stunned.

"Miroslav Klose's contract with Bayern will expire on July 1. He has decided to leave Bayern, but his next club has not been decided yet," Benali said.

"The salary is easy to talk about, but I'm afraid he won't come." Ji Ya scratched his head.

"Then it depends on your eloquence, boss. We discussed it. To accomplish this, it mainly depends on whether you can impress the other party. There may be only one Le Tissier of this level in the history of our club.

, if he can join, it will be an extremely encouraging thing for us." Benali said.

Ji Ya nodded unconsciously. There is nothing wrong with this. If Southampton can introduce players of this level, Southampton's reputation will be much greater.

Moreover, Klose is already thirty-three years old, and his physical condition is not particularly good. In the four seasons at Bayern, he only played more than 20 games in each season, and he only played 20 games in the last game.

Most of them come on the bench. Although a veteran like him is very self-disciplined, he has not been training to play football since he was a child, so he often declines quickly.

After joining Southampton, it is great that he can play half of the games. Southampton's forwards just have average experience, so it is also a good thing to have such an experienced forward to lead the team.

Noriya carefully thought about it and found that it was actually not difficult to impress Klose - his competitors would not be any giants, but only mid-range teams in the four major leagues. The Bundesliga team Klose should not

He will go, but La Liga doesn't quite suit the characteristics of a player like him, and his competitors can only be teams from the Premier League or Serie A.

Southampton is a newly promoted team, but it is not without its advantages. After all, they are the champions of the Europa League and will also participate in the Europa League in the new season. This in itself is an attraction.

Klose, a player who basically played in European games in the past, can continue to play in European games, which is indeed very attractive to him.

His competitors may not have this.

After thinking about it for a while, Noriya asked the club to contact Klose's agent, and then he immediately flew to Germany.

He soon met Klose.

Although he decided not to renew his contract with Bayern half a year ago, as a player with quite good character, Klose did not contact other clubs in advance and waited until the end of the season before starting to prepare to find his next home.

There are only a few interested teams now, the most famous of which is Lazio in Serie A. However, Lazio was indeed a top team ten years ago, but now it is a mid-range team. Under the leadership of Lotito, they got rid of the economic crisis.

It’s always just a small-cost investment with no ambition.

They performed well last season, finishing fifth in Serie A and able to participate in the Europa League. The club does not have high performance requirements and is indeed a good place to retire.

However, Klose doesn't really just want to retire - he still hopes to perform better, firstly, to participate in enough games to maintain his condition, and secondly, to have better results and performance to qualify for the next World Cup.

He is thirty-three now, and the World Cup is three years away. Whether he can participate in the World Cup at the age of thirty-six will of course not be determined by being a substitute at Bayern.

At this time, Southampton extended an olive branch.
