Chapter 487 High-end goods are indeed untouchable!
With the end of the European Cup, the "purchasing" of major European teams has really begun.
Unlike Pan Yi's current "little fight", the transfer market that summer could be said to be extremely hot.
"Set a small goal first, for example, if he wants to reach 100 million," Wang Jianlin, chairman of Wanda Group, said in an interview, the world football world has also rejected a "small goal."
110 million euros! Pogba's transfer officially announced that football has entered the 100 million era! The arms race and the four-year European Cup are the main reasons for the hot market.
As a benchmark for measuring the activity of the transfer market, the Premier League's performance next summer can be said to be a blast.
According to statistics, 13 of the 20 Premier League teams have broken the team's signing record!
Next summer, including Manchester United, Chelsea and Everton, many traditional and powerful coaches in the Premier League will change. Mourinho, Guardiola and other famous coaches have set off an arms race as soon as they take office.
Mourinho successively brought Bailly, Ibrahimovic, Mkhitaryan and Pogba to the Red Devils, while Guardiola signed Gundogan, Nolito, Stones and Sawai.
Waiting for famous generals.
Even Wenger, who has always been conservative, showed a rare act of generosity in the excitement of being surrounded by strong enemies. He successively spent 100 million yuan to chase Xhaka, Perez, Mustafi and many other strong players——
Some of those people disagreed with what Pan Yi recommended to him before.
In the dark horse of the season, Leicester City, which has reached the Champions League group stage for the first time in team history, hopes to go one step further. In addition to introducing Algerian forward Slimani from the Portuguese Super League for a record price of 30 million pounds, goalkeeper
Di, Musa, etc. are expensive per person.
There is also whether Chelsea, coached by Arteta, can maintain stability, there is not much news for the time being.
Of course, it is not because the current atmosphere of the team is good, and the honor brought by the seven championships also makes the current players feel satisfied and unwilling to switch to another team at that time.
But even without a "big dog" like Chelsea, the other 19 Premier League teams have invested more than 1.4 billion euros in the transfer market next summer! That number is terrifying.
In addition to the Premier League, the arms race in Serie A next summer is also fierce. Affected by the two-pound transfers of Pogba and Higuain, as well as Suning's entry into Inter Milan, there has been a rare large-scale investment in recent years.
Bundesliga, La Liga will become the second highest league.
Juventus and Inter Milan spent 162 million euros and 113 million euros respectively. Roma also spent 98.1 million euros on purchases, ranking third. Naples ranked fourth with 73.5 million euros.
.
It means that AC Milan has always been short of money...At this time, "Society Brother Li" has not officially completed the equity acquisition of AC Milan.
As the leader of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich finalized the two most requested signings during the European Cup, Hummels and Renato Sanches, which really made them famous.
La Liga duo Real Madrid and Barcelona are in completely opposite situations. The Galacticos focus on stability and have done little except taking back Asensio. Barcelona spent 120 million to recruit 6 major reinforcements such as Paco and Gomez.
The budget is not as tight as outsiders speculate.
It is worth mentioning that the English Championship, as a second-tier league, ranks fifth in the league buying list, which is higher than Ligue 1, one of the five major European leagues.
The first place, the Premier League, has 1.4 billion euros, the second place, Serie A, 699 million euros, the third place, Bundesliga, 543 million euros, the fourth place, La Liga, 458 million euros, and the fifth place, the English Championship, 244 million euros!
The first and fifth places also reflect the current strong appeal and money-burning ability of the Premier League.
Not only because of the huge allure of the Premier League, the competition for promotion among the English Championship teams is also very fierce, and this has also resulted in each team's huge investment in signings.
As the second-tier league in England, the English Championship has a very strong performance on the purchasing side. For example, Newcastle was relegated to the English Championship after the end of last season, and that team also hopes to win in the English Championship in the new season with its outstanding performance.
Due to their performance, they qualified for promotion, so the team spent 64 million euros on players, becoming the team that spent the most on players in the English Championship.
Of course, in addition to the intensifying arms race among various leagues, there is no doubt that the four-yearly European Cup is also an economic benchmark and the best stage for players from all over the world to get gold.
In that football feast that attracted much attention, even if I was a little-known player before, I had to perform well enough when I attended that game. It was completely possible for me to perform a successful "grassroots" game.
Appreciation season", and next summer's European Cup in France is no exception.
It is undeniable that the European Cup has indeed spawned many transfers, causing the value of many players to skyrocket, such as Batshuayi, Stones, Andre Gomez, Joao Mario, etc.
Before the European Cup, the fans' impression of the Belgian Batshuayi was more of a "rumored super star". However, after finishing his trip to France with the European Red Devils, his worth has increased significantly.
Price of 40 million euros.
Andre Gomez and Joao Mario, the two heroes who helped Portugal reach the final, even "jumped over the dragon gate" and married into two giants, Barcelona and Inter Milan.
Even French midfielder Sissoko, a player from a relegated Premier League team who was not a main force in the European Cup, was sold for a high price of 35 million euros.
In comparison, players from the champion Swedish team received a mediocre response from the market.
Except for Kulusevski, who was taken over by Pan Yi early, most teams have good Swedish players and are in a wait-and-see mode.
Captain Ibrahimovic is well-known and has signed with Manchester United early. Of course, no one will ask for trouble again.
Since Forsberg has only been playing for Red Bull Leipzig for half a season, he himself is not willing to move, and the team is not willing to let him go.
Liverpool are actually interested in the midfielder who performed well in the European Cup, but Leipzig Red Bull CEO Oliver Mintzlaff said: "Forsberg has performed very well this season and he is a player that the team is looking for again, and
It will always be like this.”
Leipzig Red Bull coach Rangnick also said: "If they let Forsberg go like that, it would almost be an insult to their intelligence. They will not let their star player leave."
Forsberg himself, who declared that Liverpool was the most ruthless, said: "He knows the interest from Liverpool, but at the moment he has no other ideas. He is in Leipzig and will play in the Bundesliga with Red Bull Leipzig."
And Swedish defense general Lindelof, who is in the center of the field, has also been favored by Manchester United. However, Mourinho has no idea of bringing him to Old Trafford, but expressed his desire.
Observe for a while.
Including Isaac, the youngest main player of the Swedish team, he was also spotted by Dortmund, the famous "star training camp", but he was not in a hurry to make a move.
On the one hand, the club errs on the side of caution from players who perform well in major competitions.
After all, although "big tests" like the World Cup and the European Cup do have the ability to help players' worth rise, competitions have never been a "double-edged sword" when it comes to players' worth.
We have indeed witnessed many "grassroots" successes in appreciation, but who can guarantee that it is not a flash in the pan?
On the other hand, this does not mean that the major European clubs are wrong in Pan Yi's affirmation!
Everyone believes that the Swedish team can pull off a big upset and win the European Cup, and almost all the credit goes to head coach Pan Yi.
The ability of the Swedish players themselves is actually average, but it is because of Pan Yi's superb tactics that perfectly blended the Swedish players together to play football that surpasses many European giants.
That was actually a bit similar to when the Greek team won the championship in 2004.
The public also generally believed that the Greek team could win the championship that year, and they also asked whether the head coach had the role of Rehagel, known as "Emperor Otto".
He first achieved the "Miracle of Kaiserslautern" in the Bundesliga, and then he achieved "Greek mythology". It can be said that he is full of legends.
But among that group of Greek players, none of them truly became super giants through that European Cup, and even the threshold of "star" was difficult to cross.
Perhaps the only one who has played for Inter Milan is Calagonis? But in fact, he has not been the main force in Inter Milan for two seasons. He is mainly seeking to break out, otherwise he will not leave the team soon.
The Portuguese Super League.
Moreover, after playing in the European Cup, he did not go to any bigger team. Instead, he first played in Benfica and then returned to China to join Panathinaikos.
Charisteas, Greece's main striker, was a substitute striker for Werder Bremen before the European Cup.
After scoring a key goal in the European Cup final to help Greece win the European Championship, and making him an out-and-out national hero in Greece, he has indeed upgraded his career and become...
Ajax's backup striker! Well, does that count as a successful upgrade?
In other words, if I ask a senior fan to tell you about the main lineup of the French team that won the European Cup in 2000, or the lineup of the Spanish team in 2008, he can probably tell you about it;
But if you ask him to name the 2004 Greek team's final lineup, he will probably say: "There are a lot of 's's anyway!"
Does that mean how dim the Greek team’s star quality is?
That time it was wrong for the players of the Swedish team, who also won the championship in an upset, and most people didn't think so either.
Except for a few players who are not stars in the first place (such as Ibrahimovic), it is difficult for many people to dare to spend real money to buy Swedish players who look very "civilian".
In a word: This is not the success of Pan Yi, but not the success of the Swedish players!
——
For Pan Yi, of course he will not chase famous stars like those big teams, but he will also try his best to get some "future stars".
The "Three Musketeers" of the Swedish national team, two old and one new, are certainly not the same as York City, which is determined to rush directly to the British Championship.
Of course, now that Pan Yi is looking for someone in the transfer market, his mood is very different from before.
In the past, when he was a coach of other teams, he would poach people, and the main reason would be the team's performance. As for the money he earned, it belonged to the club.
Now as the boss of York City, Pan Yi's job of poaching people is more like buying "financial management" products for himself, which is basically a business that makes a profit without losing money!
Therefore, Pan Yi, who was quite ambitious at first, attacked a "high-end product" first.
Then there is the future core midfielder of Arsenal who is "all in vain except Odegaard"!
The reason for looking for Odegaard is because York City already has Karlström and Kulusevski in the midfield. If there is another Odegaard, at least the attacking power in the midfield will not be needed.
Sad.
At this time, Odegaard was only a little over 17 years old, and Minamoto had not achieved his future achievements, so it was not feasible to call him to York City.
But no, why do you call him "high-end goods"?
Is that because, even though he is only 17 years old, it is too early for him to become famous!
In April 2014, Ødegaard, who was only 15 years old, was officially promoted to the first team of Norway's Stromgast.
Then on April 13, in the third round of the Norwegian Super League, Strømgast defeated Alesund Football Club 2-0, Ødegaard replaced Peter Kovac in the 72nd minute and completed his
He made his debut in the Norwegian Super League and became the youngest player in the history of the Norwegian Super League.
On May 16, in the 9th round of the Norwegian Super League, Strömgast defeated Sarpsborg 4-1, Ødegaard scored a goal in the 90th minute.
The first goal in the Norwegian Super League, becoming the youngest goalscorer in the history of the Norwegian Super League.
Odegaard, who is only 15 years old, played 24 times on behalf of Strömgast in various competitions in the 2014 season, scoring 5 goals and providing 6 assists.
That kind of performance immediately attracted the attention of major European clubs, and Real Madrid directly poached him in the east leg in January 2015.
Moreover, in the 38th match of La Liga that season, Madrid won 7-3 at home against Getafe Football Club. Odegaard came on as a substitute for Ronaldo in the 58th minute, completing his La Liga debut.
It can be said that his starting point is quite high!
Of course, at such a young age, it is not easy to gain a foothold in Real Madrid where there are so many superstars.
Later, Odegaard was able to play in Real Madrid's reserve team and play in the Spanish Second Division.
But what about Bungao? After all, he has the shining title of young genius, and he does not have a super club like Real Madrid behind him. If you want to poach him, of course it will be more difficult.
Pan Yi did not hesitate to give it a try.
Of course, the first step is to seek the players’ personal wishes.
Although Real Madrid does value Odegaard's growth, if Odegaard is willing to play in Pan Yi's team, he should be able to do a job at Real Madrid.
After all, Real Madrid does not lack people!
Judging from Pan Yi's past experience, Real Madrid later rented Odegaard here and there, and finally he went to Arsenal when his contract expired.
However……
When Odegaard's agent Kent Carlson called, Pan Yidong gave up.
The wrong party was not secretive, but said directly that for Pan Yi's sake, Odegaard could come to York City to "help the poor", but if not, it would depend on how much salary York City could offer.
Then Pan Yi knew whether Odegaard's current weekly salary at Real Madrid...
Ninety-five thousand euros!!!!
Is that something that humans can do?
With such a figure, even many teams in the Premier League can give him a maximum salary.
Real Madrid used such a high salary to pursue Odegaard, but they did not allow him to play in the reserve team!
Are you really wealthy?
York City absolutely must not pay that kind of price, otherwise the direct wage system will collapse and they will not be able to pass Financial Fair Play rules.
As a comparison, the Moroccan genius right back Achraf Hakimi, who is also playing in the Real Madrid reserve team, has a much more reasonable salary, which is 1,400 euros per week!
Since 2006, the 8-year-old Ashraf has come to the Valdebebas training base, became a youth trainee of Real Madrid Football Club, and played for all levels of Real Madrid.
Because of this, before he enters the first team, Real Madrid does not need to pay him an outrageous salary.
Bu Nao, after getting to know Pan Yi a little bit, also gave up the idea of recruiting Hakimi.
Quite simply, Hakimi is a serious youth training player of Real Madrid. The club regards Hakimi as a star of hope for the future and is already considering calling him up to the first team in one or two seasons.
Maybe a loan is feasible, but that doesn't fit Pan Yi's team building policy. The veteran can probably consider renting, but the young player won't.
Use his team's game resources to develop players for me? I can't do that.
I want to know that in Pan Yi's previous life, Hakimi was indeed unable to establish himself in the Real Madrid first team and was initially loaned to Dortmund.
After playing for two seasons, his value increased significantly, and he was finally transferred to Inter Milan for about 45 million euros.
Later, he joined Paris Saint-Germain with a fixed transfer fee of 60 million euros and a floating transfer fee of 11 million euros.
It can be said that Hakimi himself is a typical case of whether to use loan to show his worth.
But now Pan Yi hopes to cultivate his own players and then sell them, which will be even better!
When Pan Yi shook his head frequently and was about to completely give up doing business with a super big club like Real Madrid, Kent Carlson said:
"Don't I consider a player from our own country? As far as he knows, Real Madrid has wrongly rated him very low and is happy to take action."
Pan Yi Minghong, is Carlson talking about Lin Liangming, a player from Dragon Kingdom?
He can be said to be a new star that has emerged from abroad in recent years. With his excellent performance in the R&F U17 echelon, he has attracted the attention of Real Madrid.
Later, Lin Liangming was selected for the Dragon Kingdom U19 National Youth Team. When he went to Slovakia to participate in the Eight Nations Tournament and the Four Nations Tournament in Lisbon, his outstanding performance as a forward attracted the attention of many European scouts. For this reason, he received offers from many European clubs.
Invitation to join.
In that game, Real Madrid senior scout Calafate also witnessed Lin Liangming's outstanding performance at the scene and was deeply impressed by him.
After watching the game of forward Wei Jiaoqing, Calafate formally proposed the idea of introducing Lin Liangming to Real Madrid, and Real Madrid officially decided to introduce him to the team after careful consideration.
Last year, Real Madrid paid a transfer fee of 300,000 euros to bring him to Castilla.
Hey, how easy is it to gain a foothold in a club like Real Madrid?
If nothing else, not even talented youngsters like Odegaard and Hakimi can do it...
Well, let alone the first team, it is difficult for Lin Liangming to have a stable place in the Real Madrid B team.
Are there really too many young talents?
Well, he is actually the main player in Real Madrid's U19 youth team.
From Christmas 2015 to June 2016, Lin Liangming was only present 10 times during that period...
Therefore, if Pan Yi reaches out to Real Madrid to ask for help at that time, there is a high probability that the deal will be completed, and the transfer fee will not be very large - after all, Lin Liangming's current worth in Germany has even dropped to tens of thousands of euros.
And at that time, Pan Yi's fame and advantages of connections were reflected.
Including Kent Carlson, he certainly did not recommend Lin Liangming to Pan Yi with the mentality that "business cannot be a friendship", or even disclosed "outside information".
After all, a world-famous coach like Pan Yi might have to deal with him one day to promote his own players. Is it very necessary to maintain a good relationship?
The same goes for Real Madrid.
Who has never pursued Pan Yi?
If one day, Pan Yi wants to coach at a big club, Real Madrid would be very interested in grabbing a chance.
Establishing a good relationship with them is of course not a top priority.
You see, are Manchester City and Chelsea "competing for favor", and are they really spending money on York City?
And if Real Madrid gives up a small player that they don't need at all to give Pan Yi some face, it can be said that there will be no harm at all.
Therefore, that deal was indeed made with cocoa!
After hanging up the phone, Pan Yi also thought about something.
Lin Liangming was not in his plan at the beginning. After all, as a professional player, the Dragon Country player was far away from Pan Yi's request.
But since both of them are from the Dragon Kingdom, it’s not a big problem to try to get them to work together;
Secondly, although Lin Liangming has not been kicked out yet, he is still young and has great talent.
After he returned to China, he was also selected for the Olympic team and the national team, which at least shows that his talent is not among the top in the world.
If he could go to the English League One to hone his skills in that life and be coached by Pan Yi and Scaloni, his career might have undergone new changes.
Third, York City is indeed short of players on the front line.
Except for Baker, everyone else was embarrassed and asked to be replaced.
Lin Liangming can play as a left winger, left midfielder, center forward and attacking midfielder. He is indeed a good addition to the team's lineup.
What, why not find a more powerful new forward?
Come on, the more forward you are, the more famous you are at a young age, which means the more expensive it is and the harder it is to get legs.
For example, Brazil's "Little Bear" Vinicius is only 16 years old now.
But now he is being watched by Real Madrid, who are even preparing to pay him 45 million euros in liquidated damages...
Another Brazilian rising star, Rodrigo, is similar and has basically been booked.
Including the future FM monster Enderrick, he was signed by Real Madrid in advance at the age of 16.
A very typical example is Moukoko, who broke various youth records in Dortmund. He was targeted when he was only 13 or 14 years old...
There's no way around it, that kind of striker talent is always killing everyone in the youth team at a very young age, and it's hard not to attract the attention of big clubs.
And once the big clubs take notice, the whole world will take notice, and the price will definitely not be lowered.
Comparatively speaking, the statistics of midfielders and backfield players are not so conspicuous, and the characteristics of their positions also determine that many players will not show their talents in their youth, which instead gave Pan Yi some opportunities to pick up the slack.
Are English League One teams so humble? There's nothing we can do about it.
Most of the target players that Pan Yi is seeking to sign are not looking for excellence, but they are not famous, and they are small players who hang out in small teams.
If they are in a large or medium-sized team, then it is best if they are young players who have not signed a professional contract, as they are easy to "cheat" like Kulusevski.
Of course, this also includes people like Lin Liangming who have asked to be given up...
Thinking about it, Pan Yi didn't hesitate and dialed the phone directly!
