"I dare not say what kind of strong team Southampton is. I can only say that the Southampton I lead is definitely ambitious. In the new season, some of our players may leave, but I have been adding more players.
The strength of the team. Previously, I signed Blind from the Netherlands to fill our vacancy on the left. Next, I need an experienced forward, because our forwards are still young and have not been influenced by the top league.
They are all very talented, but in terms of experience, I need a veteran like you to lead the way. I dare not say that you will definitely be the main force under me, but as long as your condition is good, then you will definitely be my main force, and our new
The goal of the season is not to avoid relegation, but to compete in the European competition - to be precise, to compete in the top four, because we have already won the Europa League, and what we want to play more is the Champions League."
Ji Ya's words sounded like a delusional person talking nonsense, but Klose didn't think so, because he could feel that Ji Ya's words were sincere and came from the heart, and he would really do it...
Klose doesn’t want to only play in the Europa League.
But will the newly promoted Southampton have an easier time entering the Champions League than the traditional strong team Lazio?
Before, Klose felt that Lazio was definitely better. In fact, he and Lazio had been talking for a long time, and both sides had clear intentions. But now after listening to Jiya's words, Klose felt that as the boss and coach, Jiya,
With such ambition, it seems that it will be easier for Southampton to achieve good results!
And he is not young anymore. To put it bluntly, he cannot wait for the team to develop slowly. What he wants to see is the club's actions.
So after talking with Ji Ya, he made a decision.
Put it on hold for now and watch the actions of both clubs in the transfer market before making a decision.
After this news came out, Lazio was very angry. They were almost successful, but Ji Ya had a hand in it. Moreover, their financial resources were indeed average. They had to sell people first and then buy them. Klose was a free transfer
Of course we can talk about it in advance, but we have to keep looking at the rest.
But no matter how angry they were, there was nothing they could do. They couldn't interfere with Klose's decision.
Ji Ya returned to Southampton with satisfaction. Although he did not sign Klose, it is not bad to achieve such a goal. There are still a few days until June, and Southampton's lineup may be different.
drastic changes.
To be honest, the previous signings and departures were all minor repairs. Those who left were players who rarely played. Except for Blind, who may be the main left back in the new season, the others who were introduced and promoted were substitutes and substitutes.
Young players.
However, Southampton's performance last season, especially in the Europa League - this is very important. Southampton set an unprecedented record in the English Championship, but they only dominated in relatively low-level competitions.
Whether the same performance can be achieved in top competitions is still unknown.
However, the performance of Southampton's players in the Europa League cannot be faked, especially when they encountered strong teams all the way in the knockout rounds - Braga looked inconspicuous, and they also won the Champions League before.
Only the third place team comes to play in the Europa League.
And those who performed the most eye-catchingly were none other than those few people.
Lambert, the silver boot of the Europa League who scored 13 goals in the Europa League.
Lallana, who had six direct assists in the Europa League and performed well in both the finals and semi-finals.
Chamberlain, who has been the main player in the Europa League, constantly creates a source of offense for Southampton through breakthroughs and passes from the wing.
They are all attackers. Of course, the performance of attackers is always more eye-catching, and attackers who can perform well against strong teams are even more eye-catching.
In fact, according to Noriya, the performance of the two center backs, as well as the right back Klein and the midfielder Dembele are also very good, but their excellence is not obvious. When will they be able to score goals?
Players with problems are more in demand.
Ji Ya was prepared for the main players to be poached, but what he didn't expect was that a wealthy and prestigious team like Manchester United and Chelsea didn't take action, but other teams did...
"Wenger wants to buy Chamberlain? This is really his style..." Ji Ya said with a sigh.
Frye nodded and handed him a piece of paper.
"That's not bad. Twenty million pounds. Is Arsenal rich now?" Ji Ya couldn't help but laugh.
"They already had money before, with a budget of 70 million." Frye shrugged.
Ji Ya looked up to the sky and laughed. In the past few years, Arsenal has said that it has a transfer budget of 70 million every year, which has become a joke...
"Seriously, they spent more than 10 million pounds on a defender last year. Not to mention that Chamberlain is so young and talented. He likes players like this." Frye replied.
"What does Chamberlain himself think?" Ji Ya asked.
He definitely doesn't want to sell Chamberlain. After all, Chamberlain came from Southampton's youth training. He is still less than 18 years old. He can play as the main force at such an age and has accumulated enough experience. If he continues to train, his future is almost impossible.
Limited edition.
But Ji Ya also knows that if the players want to leave, the best way is to cash out while their value is high.
At Chamberlain's current age, it is actually the best time to cash out, because he is too young and there is no telling what his future achievements will be. If you ask for a high price, others are willing to take a gamble.
On the contrary, Blind, who is 21 or 2 years old, is neither above nor below, so it is difficult to sell at a high price.
If you want to sell at a high price, you are at your peak age of 24 or 5, and your performance has been affirmed and tested by the market. As long as your performance is indeed top-notch, it is normal to sell at a sky-high price.
Chamberlain is the former. His transfer fee may not be sky-high, but it is definitely indispensable.
"He himself expressed that he hopes to go to a big club to show his talent." Frye said with some helplessness.
In a club like Southampton, it is indeed normal to hear such words...
Think of Walcott, think of Bale, Chamberlain is just another young genius. Such a genius's heart is often not in Southampton.
Ji Ya shrugged his shoulders.
Although he had already prepared for it, after all, Chamberlain has always been very confident, and he did not show any gratitude towards Ji Ya - because he felt that with his talent, he could shine wherever he went, and Ji Ya reused him.
It just speeds up this.
But now that he knew that Chamberlain wanted to leave Arsenal as soon as he got the call, Ji Ya was still unhappy.
"Tell Arsenal that 20 million is not enough. He is a young genius from our youth training. More money is needed."
Ji Ya said this first, then thought about it and continued: "Tell Chamberlain that he still has four years of contract with the club. If he wants to transfer, be honest. The transfer fee is high and his status is higher. If
If I want to cooperate with Arsenal in lowering the price, I will put him on the bench for four years and cripple him, but it will not make him feel better."
