Southampton's luck is not very good this season. This is reflected in the fact that they have a lot of injuries. Several players have been injured in turn, not to mention Otamendi, who has not yet resumed training. Now Wo
Once Dun was injured, Southampton had no choice but to find another midfielder.
After activating the scouting system to find him, Noriya didn't say much. After all, it was easy to fill such a position, and it could even be done at no cost - the worst he could do was to rent it out for half a season.
Players from the English Championship should also be happy to come to Southampton like this.
Noriya really doesn't have the extra energy to take care of transfer matters now. There will be a game against Sunderland in the next three days, and he has to prepare for it.
In the Premier League, even if you are playing against a weak team, it is impossible for a strong team to win just by stacking up its main players. You have to prepare well for every game.
Sunderland is currently ranked 16th and is also a team fighting for relegation. They have invested a lot of money this summer. They bought forward Fletcher from Wolves and winger Adam Johnson from Manchester City. They also have a certain strength.
of improvement.
However, their overall performance was weak. Noriya continued to rotate, and all the main players from the last break returned, but Vidal and Willian were replaced by Schneiderlin and Klose.
In this game, Southampton deployed a double center tactic. This change caught Sunderland off guard. In the end, it was Benteke and Klose who each scored a goal in the game, helping Southampton win the opponent.
What makes Southampton fans even more happy is that Manchester United stopped their winning streak in this round. They were somewhat surprisingly tied 1-1 by Swansea in the away game, although Manchester City defeated the bottom reading.
, allowing Southampton to continue to be ranked third, but the point gap with the first place has been narrowed to six points again, which still makes Southampton fans very happy.
They can welcome the coming Christmas with a very happy mood.
After playing this game, Noriya gave the entire club a two-day holiday and would regroup on the 26th. After all, the players also needed to relax for the next continuous battle.
While there was nothing going on with the first team, Ji Ya began to look at the recruiting targets reported by the scouts. However, after looking at a few, Ji Ya was not interested. In addition to poor statistics, his performance was average, compared with Walton.
, that’s far from it.
In Noriya's view, either bring in a veteran who is willing to give, like Walton, or simply bring in a young man with potential, so that he can improve even through training, play games from time to time, and maybe return in the future.
It will bring surprises.
Just when he was dissatisfied with several candidates, a document handed over by Prost aroused his interest...
After thinking about it, Ji Ya called Prost. He knew that Prost was also an old bachelor and would not be reunited with his family at this time.
Soon, Prost rushed over. After entering the office, he patted the snowflakes on his body and looked dusty.
Ji Ya poured him a glass of whiskey, then asked him with a smile: "What, are you going to go to the scouting department?"
"As for the black box system, I will pay attention to potential young players around the world."
Prost replied, then he took a sip of whiskey and put it aside.
"I have been paying attention to this guy for a long time. We were not qualified to win him before. After all, this guy played for the Brazilian national team in September 2011. At that time, it was reported that Inter Milan wanted 15 million to buy him.
Rumor has it that we have no right to spend so much money on an 18-year-old player," Prost said.
"Indeed, we had just returned to the Premier League at that time, and the limited money was used to strengthen our strength. At that time, the immediate combat ability of Vidal and William was the most important." Ji Ya nodded.
"It's different now."
Prost waved the document in his hand: "After that, he performed poorly due to injuries and was not selected for the 2012 Olympics, so now he is considered unpopular. He has returned to competition in the past half season and performed well.
But Sao Paulo is a little anxious. He only has one year left on his contract. If he doesn't sell it, he will leave for free."
"This is indeed a good choice." Ji Ya laughed loudly. Southampton still has a lot of liquidity this season anyway. Of course, it is cheap and must be earned.
"If you can lower the price, lower the price. If you can't lower the price, you can rent before buying. If it doesn't perform well, we can return it." Ji Ya called Frye.
"No problem, leave it to me." Frye is also very interested in this transfer.
One day later, Southampton Club sent an offer to the 20-year-old Brazilian midfielder Carlos Enrique Casemiro to the desk of the Sao Paulo president, who wanted to rent him out first and then buy out the 20-year-old Brazilian midfielder Carlos Enrique Casemiro after half a season.
This offer made the president of Sao Paulo a little disappointed. More than two years ago, he would not have looked at such an offer. You must know that Inter Milan's offer of 15 million was rejected by Sao Paulo.
What's next? Casemiro was constantly injured, his performance was mediocre, and he was not selected for the Olympics. His performance was better in the past half of the season, and he only has one year left on his contract...
Under such circumstances, having such a quotation is already considered very good.
"Tell them that we want a rental fee, and at the same time, the buyout fee needs to be higher, and it has to be a mandatory buyout." The chairman of Sao Paulo quickly responded.
"It's not too much. Just agree to them. The rental fee is 500,000, and the mandatory buyout is 5.5 million after half a year. A total of 6 million is already quite a lot." Ji Ya gave instructions.
The chairman of Sao Paulo sighed and agreed to this clause. He had to agree. Who made Casemiro's contract only have half a year left?
When Casemiro himself knew the news, he was still very happy. After all, the dream of every South American player is to play in Europe. Although Southampton does not seem to be famous, they have recently won the Europa League twice in a row.
Casemiro has also heard about the Cup, and another very important factor is that there are quite a lot of South American players in the Southampton team.
Otamendi, Vidal, William, J Ronaldo...
Moreover, the Navas are also from Nagada America, and they have a common language with each other.
Moreover, William is now also a member of the Brazilian national team. It was at Southampton that he became the Brazilian international. With such a big brother as a role model in front of him, Casemiro is also quite moved.
So soon, he signed his name on the contract and flew to the UK, to the Europe he dreamed of.
Although he will not be eligible to play until January 1st, he is not in a hurry. He knows that he must first adapt to England and then play in the game.
Participating in training and adapting to training before that is a very important thing.
