Chambers is worth 25 million, Vidal is worth 35 million, and Austin is worth 15 million. The total transfer fee for these three people has reached 75 million pounds, and Southampton will definitely not be able to buy someone.
It will cost too much money. Under such circumstances, even if Chelsea is willing to pay more, the possibility of impressing Southampton will be much smaller.
After all, Southampton may have been short of money before, but with these 75 million to fill it, is it possible that it will still be short of money?
They have just announced that they have paid off the remaining arrears of more than 30 million pounds in advance, completely solving their debt problem. At the same time, they announced that they will continue to invest more than 20 million pounds in the youth training base to expand their youth training base.
The camp becomes stronger.
Why are they suddenly rich? The previous share of the Premier League broadcast fee was less than 60 million. This amount of money was enough to renew the contracts of the main players. But now they have spent so much money, which is nothing more than selling three main players.
Bringing them ample cash flow!
As a debt-free Southampton, do they still need to rush to sell their main players?
In fact, Noriya himself did not expect this. The sale of Chambers and Vidal was unplanned, especially for Chambers. He raised the price to scare Arsenal away, but Arsenal immediately agreed.
How else can this be played...
Vidal is a relatively mature transfer method. The price is not low, but in fact there is not much premium. Based on his performance, the price is not high. After all, his performance in the past two years is not compared with the previous Modric.
Not much different, Modric would only be worth this much if he went to Real Madrid.
But Modric doesn't have any decent personal success, and Vidal has already won many championships in Southampton.
However, in this case, people will have to rethink whether to sell, how to sell, and who to buy to fill it.
When selling two main players and one substitute, Southampton's signings were not idle. They first recovered Vardy from Leicester City to fill Austin's vacancy, while Prowse continued to play at Leicester City.
Techeng stayed, and then Ji Ya loaned Du Yue to Stevenage. After this poor team lost Vardy last season, it changed from a team that could reach the play-offs to a relegation team.
Now seeing that Southampton was willing to loan a striker to them, they were so grateful that they quickly took over Du Yue, and also added an additional clause that was considered humiliating to the country, that is, no matter how Du Yue performed,
As long as he is not injured, he must play...
But Stevenage doesn't care too much about this. This team is originally a team that is not even close to the strength of League Two. They can reach League One only because of bad luck and the addition of Valerian that year.
Dee's outbreak, under such circumstances, they will make money by staying in the English League for one more year, let alone helping Southampton train players. In addition to being able to use Southampton's people for free, they can also get a sum of money.
Training costs.
Don't underestimate this training fee. A mere few hundred thousand may seem like nothing to Southampton, but in Stevenage, it may be enough for one month's expenses.
In addition to this in and out, Southampton has also introduced two young defenders. Among them, Rudiger is worth two million, and Bailly is only one million. Southampton has kept the number of its defenders balanced.
——There is even one more player than last season. After all, two defenders left, but three came in to replace them, including Alonso who joined for free.
Although there are no big-money introductions, Southampton is filling the vacancies in an orderly manner, which also makes Southampton fans feel at ease.
The more they feel at ease, the more Chelsea feel something is wrong, because even if Southampton stops their transfer, they still have a successful transfer season. The two main players who left have been replaced, and the substitutes have also been replaced at cheap prices.
After a season, I can earn more than 60 million yuan, which is enough to cover the broadcast fees for a year.
What kind of bike do you need?
If it continues to be delayed, when Southampton's pre-season training begins, then Southampton will not sell anyone - this has been Jiya's habit for so many years. When he starts the pre-season training, no one will
Sell.
Last season, PSG offered a high price of 30 million pounds to buy Matuidi halfway through Southampton's pre-season training. However, Ji Ya directly refused. PSG raised the price to 4,000 pounds without any hesitation.
Neither Wan nor Ji Ya let go.
Other times, I sell it when I have enough money. When I start training, I won’t sell it no matter how much money I get.
Once this image is established, it is very difficult to shake it.
"We can't delay any longer, unless we plan to buy no one in the new season and just rely on the existing players for a year... Their prices are indeed a bit high, but as expected, we can make money back, and
We can also use the players we can’t use to offset part of the expenses, boss, I hope you delegate power to me.” Mourinho called Abramovich for help.
Abramovich was a little hesitant. Ever since he found a way to get rid of Mourinho, Abramovich had taken back the transfer power. After that, he could buy people if he wanted to, and if he didn't want to, he wouldn't. He kept the coaches in check.
Yes, if we delegate power now, will Mourinho be able to take advantage of the situation and become bigger?
At that time, I was trying to get rid of Mourinho. In addition to Abramovich wanting the focus to be on himself, Mourinho was very aggressive in seizing power, which was also a key reason. In addition, he was not without selfish motives and had brought in many new players.
A player from the Des family, this is also a key for Abramovich to deal with him.
Of course, since Mourinho left, although Chelsea won the Champions League, they only won one league championship. This also made Abramovich very depressed. Appropriate delegation of power seems to be necessary.
"I can leave it to you to handle this transfer negotiation with Southampton. Jose, do a good job." Abramovich said after thinking for a while.
"Don't worry, boss, I won't let you down."
After putting down the phone, Mourinho waved his fist. Now, he can let go and do something big!
Of course, the transfer fee of 130 million pounds that Southampton offered before was simply a joke. Even if these three people performed really well, it would be impossible to pay so much money to buy them.
We are not yet in an era where billion-dollar transfers will emerge one after another in the next few years. Buying a person for 40 to 50 million is now top-notch. Everyone’s thinking has not changed yet. The top European transfer bidders in recent years have generally been for 40 million.
At the level of 10 million to 50 million euros, Ji Ya was also a little surprised that Vidal could sell for more than 40 million euros before.
But there are always negotiations, and transfers don't necessarily require all cash.
