Noriya persuaded Klopp. Klopp also knew that Lewandowski wanted to go to Bayern, and he still wanted to go on a free transfer. In this case, he could get a higher salary, and Bayern was stronger and easier to get.
Good honor, Bayern has been trying to find a top center to stabilize over the years. After Ma Kai gets older, whether it is Gomez or Mandzukic, it seems that there is something missing.
There is no problem with their wings, and the classic Robery combination can at least last a few years.
Lewandowski is a very good candidate, so the two parties almost hit it off.
Under such circumstances, instead of keeping him for one year and letting him move on a free transfer, it would be better to sell him for some money. Moreover, selling to a foreign team would also weaken the strength of his competitors.
After all, there are not many teams like Southampton that sell their best players to domestic competitors.
Soon, Southampton made an offer of 20 million pounds, which was agreed by Dortmund. For a striker with only one year left on his contract to be sold for so much money, it was rare for Southampton to be generous.
However, what everyone did not expect was that Lewandowski directly rejected Southampton's offer.
The salary offered by Southampton is not low. As long as Lewandowski is willing to come, he will be given a maximum salary of 150,000 pounds. This figure is still worse than the maximum salary of the Big 6, but it is indeed not low.
, at least higher than the salary he received in Dortmund.
However, Lewandowski said that he would either increase his weekly salary to 300,000 pounds or include a termination clause in his contract. Otherwise, he would not consider joining Southampton.
After hearing the news of the feedback, Ji Ya smiled and then withdrew the offer.
"I have no choice. I originally wanted to help you out, but this guy's demands are too much. Let's wait until he goes to Bayern. Then in the Champions League, I will fight him once when we see him." Ji Ya said to Klopp.
Klopp sighed. He had nothing to say. Lewandowski was indeed determined to go to Bayern. It was not that there were no offers from other teams before, but just like this time, they were all rejected by Lewandowski himself.
Klopp also felt a little embarrassed, so he asked: "How about you take a look at Gundogan again?"
"He is a good player. It's a pity that we bought De Bruyne, Schneiderlin and Drinkwater before, so there is no room for him anymore. I was joking before," replied Noriya.
"Then if you sell Mkhitaryan to us, won't there be a need for him? Mkhitaryan's scoring ability is very important to us." Klopp said with expectation.
Ji Ya quickly hung up the phone. Who is he? He is a friend. He just keeps an eye on my players. Damn!
The failure to introduce Lewandowski made Noriya a little depressed, but he wanted to bring in Lewandowski. Unexpectedly, he convinced Dortmund, but could not convince Lewandowski.
Fortunately, he also has many backup targets.
Liverpool has been miserable in recent years. Since Benitez's dismissal, they have not been able to participate in the Champions League for several years, and their results in the Europa League are not good. Last season, they ranked eighth and could not even compete in the Europa League.
After entering, the income has been declining, so that such a wealthy family is now somewhat unsustainable.
After the new head coach Rogers took office, he originally wanted to buy some people to enhance his strength, but found that he had no money to sign...
He is not worried about the offensive line. Now with young player Sterling, top player Suarez, and the outstanding performance of Sturridge introduced last season in the winter, they do not lack forwards.
However, at this time, Noriya applied to Liverpool. They hoped to introduce Liverpool's Uruguayan striker Suarez.
This offer made everyone at Liverpool very angry. We used to poach you, but now you are poaching us in turn? It's the other way around! The Red Army fellows have actually begun to devour the master!
As a result, Noriya quoted a price of 35 million pounds.
This left Liverpool's management a bit overwhelmed.
Arsenal wanted to introduce Suarez before. They didn't know where they found out that Suarez's contract had a release clause of 40 million euros, so they asked for a transfer fee of 40.1 million euros...
Suarez had wanted to go to Arsenal before. After all, Liverpool's performance in the past two years was indeed not very good. Although Arsenal also missed the Champions League in a row, they can still play in the Europa League.
Players like him are eager to compete in Europe.
As a result, Rogers persuaded Suarez. Rogers' reason for advising Suarez was very strong - what is there to participate in the Europa League? Stay at Liverpool and let's hit the Champions League together! He wanted to go to a team with better results, but he started from the eighth place in the Premier League.
What’s the point of going to fifth place in the Premier League?
This reason is very strong and logical. Indeed, for an ambitious player, it does not make much sense to play in the Europa League.
And in terms of income, we are all Premier League giants, and there is no fundamental difference between the salary Arsenal can offer and what Liverpool can offer.
Seeing that Suarez was almost stable, Southampton intervened.
From the perspective of historical status and the real attractiveness of the team, Southampton is not as good as Arsenal, but their results in recent years have been too impressive, especially last season when they won the Quadruple Champions League, which no one has ever won.
The honors they have received are so impressive, not to mention that although they sold a lot of players this summer, they also made a lot of signings. Everyone believes that with Kiya's ability, Southampton's performance will be even better in the future.
Moreover, as the league champions, they can directly play in the Champions League. They were eliminated from the Champions League group stage last season. They will definitely work harder this season.
Under such circumstances, Southampton's appeal becomes even greater.
After urgent discussions, Liverpool's management decided to reject Southampton's offer despite Rogers' strong objections.
But soon, Noriya raised the offer to 40 million pounds, which was more than 55 million euros. At the same time, Suarez's agent also found the club and expressed his hope to let Suarez leave Liverpool.
Liverpool are helpless at such a request. Suarez has been with Liverpool for two and a half seasons. The contract he signed at the time was for four and a half years. Now he only has two years left. He must either renew the contract or sell it now.
Dropped him.
In addition, the Uruguayan is not a good boy. He bit Ivanovic in the game against Chelsea last season and was suspended for ten games. He will not be able to participate in the first six league games of the new season.
Under such circumstances, letting him go seems to be a wise choice.
Moreover, Southampton's offer is sincere enough. When Suarez joined Liverpool, his transfer value was only over 26 million euros. Now he can sell it for more than double the price, which is enough. Arsenal's previous price was 4,000 euros.
A transfer fee of 10,000 pounds seems like a thief and disrespectful to Liverpool.
