Chapter 192 Let us work hard for it and even bear the goal of infamy (2/21)
While Lazio is preparing for the two-leg semi-final against Chelsea, Serie A is still going on.
However, Chang Sheng has decided which league will be a warm-up match.
To allow more players to get playing opportunities, he began to continuously rotate in the league to train players and keep everyone in good competitive condition.
But no matter how the rotation is done, there will always be someone who will not be rotated out, and that is Falcao.
Fall starts every exam.
And his performance in the game did not disappoint.
In the 33rd round, Lazio defeated Siena 3:1 at home, Falcao had an assist.
In the 34th round, Lazio drew with Catania 2:2 away from home. Falcao contributed another assist and a goal.
This time, in the thirty-fourth round of the league, he has already scored thirty league goals.
He officially became the second player in Serie A in half a century to score more than 30 goals in a single season!
The first one is Luca Toni. In the 2005-2006 season, when he represented Fiorentina in Serie A, he scored 31 goals in a single season and was the top scorer that season.
In the half century before him, only Nordahl, one of the Swedish Three Musketeers of AC Milan, could do it.
After him, now Falcao appears!
The Italian media began to hype Falcao's 30 goals in a single season.
Of course, what they didn't know was that they had inadvertently helped Lazio's Falcao create another excellent advertisement.
They praised Falcao to the fullest in their reports, saying how outstanding and great Falcao is. He has achieved such outstanding results at such a young age. So what heights will he reach in time?
The propaganda eventually found its way to Barcelona's ears.
Originally, before this, the negotiations between Barcelona Club and Lazio Club were very painful.
Lotito is a ruthless man, and Barcelona's money does not fall from the sky.
The two sides were at a stalemate.
By now, Barcelona can no longer hold on.
The Italian media has been hyping Falcao's 30 goals in a single season, which has aroused the interest of other European giants.
Teams that were hesitant before are planning to step up their game this time.
Since Barcelona is now the only team negotiating with Lazio, it has a head start.
It would be simply unforgivable if someone robbed Falcao even though he had the upper hand!
And after Rosell left, Barcelona has been lacking too many outstanding transfers. There is a voice in the media saying that the players who laid the foundation of the second team were all introduced by Rosell, such as Ronaldinho and Deco.
...This makes Laporta very angry. How can people forget Daniel Alves?!
Now, Laporta hopes to use Falcao to prove that he is the one with the real eye for talent. He also has the ability to complete a sensational transfer for Barcelona.
Another reason that prompted Barcelona to make up its mind to agree to Lazio's conditions was the Barcelona team's poor performance in the league.
After 33 rounds of La Liga, Barcelona has 17 wins, 10 draws and 6 losses, with 61 points, ranking only third. However, their archrival Real Madrid currently tops the list with 72 points, as many as 10 points ahead of them.
One point!
It can be said that Barcelona has no chance of winning the league title this season.
Even judging from the current trend, if Real Madrid wins the championship before the 36th round of the league, then Barcelona will have to line up at the Bernabeu Stadium to welcome the league champion Real Madrid!
This is simply a huge shame for Barcelona!
The current situation has left Barcelona with low morale, and fans are also uneasy about the team's performance.
After this, only by winning a player of sufficient weight can people continue to maintain confidence in Barcelona.
Falcao is clearly the best.
In this season, no one in European football is more popular than Falcao.
In the Serie A, which emphasizes defense, he scored 30 goals, ranking first in the league's scorer list. In the Champions League, he also led Cristiano Ronaldo with eight goals, and his teammate Benzema ranked first in the scorer list.
Top of the list.
And Romedal Falcao, who did all this, is only twenty-two years old!
He has a bright future!
Such a young and capable center is exactly what Barcelona needs.
If Barcelona can defeat Real Madrid and win this super "tiger", I believe it can not only improve its own strength, but also attack Real Madrid in disguise and weaken their competitiveness.
Under such circumstances, Barcelona agreed to the transfer fee of 50 million euros proposed by Lazio!
Next, as long as Barcelona can negotiate a personal contract with Falcao, starting from next season, this ferocious "tiger" will be a Barcelona man, wearing Barcelona's red and blue striped jersey to attack Barcelona...
…
It is naturally Falcao's agent Claudio Mosio's dream to let Falcao move to a team with a world-renowned reputation like Barcelona.
He even felt that after this battle, he could reach the upper echelon of the agent circle...

When Chang Sheng locked himself in the study room, stared at the TV screen, watched the Chelsea game tapes one after another, pausing frequently, and then lowered his head to record on his notebook.
Suddenly the phone rings loudly!
He answered the phone and heard Lotito's excited and somewhat incoherent voice on the other end.
"It's done! Chang! We've done it! Do you know how much it is? Guess it? Guess it!"
Chang Sheng said: "Just tell me the result directly, Mr. Chairman."
"Fifty million! Euro! Fifty million! And it's a one-time payment! No installment payments, no compensation from players, only cash! We really did it! With this money, our debts can be covered
Nearly half of it has been removed!”
Lotito looked very excited on the phone.
When he chose Chang Sheng to be the head coach of Lazio, it was because of Chang Sheng's ability to make money. At that time, Valencia gave Chang Sheng a transfer budget of 25 million euros every year. As a result, this amount of money increased every season.
It's not all spent, and if you win often, you can sell players to make money for the club.
Considering Lazio's situation at the time, Chang Sheng was the head coach he needed most.
But even so, I'm afraid he never thought that one day, his team's players could be sold for 50 million euros!
After Lazio received leniency from the national tax department, its debts were only 140 million euros. After these two seasons, they patched together 19 million euros.
There are now 120 million euros of debt left.
I bought Falcao, made 50 million, used it to pay off debts, and suddenly only 70 million was left.
Lotito suddenly felt like "the suffering will be over" and "good times will eventually come"...
In the past few years, I have been frugal and even reduced the number of disposable paper cups and toilet paper in the club. Isn't it just for this day?
In fact, Lotito's mood was relatively calm when he called Chang Sheng.
After he negotiated the transfer contract with FC Barcelona, he walked out of FC Barcelona and couldn't help but burst into tears.
He felt that everything he had paid and endured the "stingy" abuse from Lazio fans... was all worth it!
Chang Sheng naturally understands Lotito's mood at this moment, because he knew Lotito's story at that time and space.
When the Lazio club was in a critical moment of life and death, it was he who injected 21 million euros into the Lazio club the day before the club was registered, helping Lazio come back to life.
Although some people later said that he only wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to promote the new stadium construction plan to the Rome city government to acquire the land when he acquired the Lazio club.
But even so, he really helped Lazio regain a new lease of life.
His stinginess was shocking and resented even the players.
Because fans believe that Lotito is unwilling to buy big-name stars, the players cannot tolerate the maximum salary limit of two million euros.
Lotito was once frustrated and even wanted to sell the club. At that time, a year and a half had passed since he acquired the Lazio club. At that time, Lazio's stock price was only 43 cents per share. Within a year, Lotito
That's a loss of nine million euros.
At that time, Lazio fans hoped that Lotito would sell the club to a pharmaceutical company represented by former club president Zinaria.
At that time, some media published the headline "Lotito VS Everyone", which shows how much Lotito was "betrayed by everyone".
But because there were too many people who opposed Lotito, Lotito became stubborn. Instead, he did not want to sell the club, but insisted on it.
He has a tough attitude towards the outside world: "Someone wants to buy Lazio? Unless he spends 500 million euros!"
Later, no one was interested in Lazio, Lazio was still his team.
Later, at Lotito's insistence, Lazio still had a maximum salary of two million euros and still did not introduce big-name stars.
But Lazio subsequently won two Italian Cups and even reached the Champions League.
Later, Lazio led by Lotito became the only financially healthy club in Serie A. When all clubs were in economic crisis and financial difficulties, Lazio was able to make a profit and began to gradually relax restrictions on maximum salaries...
…
This is the story of a businessman running a football club with pure business thinking.
Lazio has not reached its peak competitively, but from an economic perspective, Lotito has succeeded. You must know that before he took over, Lazio was almost bankrupt and had debts of more than 100 million euros. It was he who made this team about to go bankrupt.
The team has regained a new lease of life and no longer has to worry about huge debts or being liquidated next year.
It's a pity that Lazio didn't win often in that time and space.
But it’s not too late to make up for this regret…
"Don't worry, Mr. Chairman. We will try to wipe out all debts this summer!"
Some people thought that Lazio would be carved up by the giants this summer and become a ruin.
The constant victory will prove to them that Lazio, the blue eagle, will rise from the ashes and usher in a more brilliant future!
