When Inter Milan's transfer personnel contacted Parma, Parma in turn asked to buy out Adriano for 13 million euros - this was also the time when Adriano went to Parma.
Half of what it was worth at that time.
"Tell them that this is impossible, either accept the transfer for 15 million, or wait for the envelope." Dick told Inter Milan's transfer director Blanca.
Branca has not yet monopolized power as he did later. He is now just a high-level staff member of Inter Milan's transfer department. Although his status is not low, he does not have that much power.
In fact, Branca gained Moratti's trust after completing several beautiful transfers during the Facchetti era, and historically, his operations in the summer of 2009 pushed his reputation to its peak.
Hearing what Dick said, Blanca nodded. One thing that all the transfer department staff know now is that Dick now has all the power over Inter Milan transfers. Whatever he says is what he wants, and
As a coach, since he is not in a hurry, the transfer department naturally does not need to be in a hurry.
In the past, a big waste of Inter Milan's resources was that the coaches were selected, but they were not responsible for the purchase. For example, Cooper wanted Nesta, but Cannavaro came, and Mourinho wanted Lan.
Pad, it turned out to be Muntari... It's not that there is anything wrong with their vision, but after passing a few links, the transfer naturally cannot be used flexibly, and now, Dick wants to have all the power, don't
Lati also gave him such power, so he would naturally be much more flexible.
Blanca went to reply to Parma. Dick was really not in a hurry. He knew that Parma couldn't afford it. Now Parma's finances are starting to have problems. They will definitely not be able to deliver envelopes to Inter Milan.
, even if Di Keming told them that we would only pay fifteen million, they would not dare to pay more than this amount, because they may not be able to afford it, and even if they could afford it, they would not dare to pay it, because Ah
Adriano's own contract only has one year left. Even if you get full ownership of half ownership, you can only have the original contract. If you want to extend it, you have to continue negotiating. If Adriano does not renew,
About, then they can only watch Adriano leave in a year...
Inter Milan does not have such a problem, they have the confidence to keep Adriano.
Dick naturally knew that Palma would back down, and they wouldn't be able to wait until the envelope was handed over - Dick said it was 15 million, but if he only gave 10 million when handing over the envelope, I'm afraid that Palma
The team is about to vomit blood. Now the initiative lies with Inter Milan, not with Parma. This is completely different from the historical situation at the beginning of this year.
And Dick didn't mind using other methods to put a little pressure on Parma.
"I want Toni, Luca Toni who plays for the newly promoted Palermo." Dick said to the people in Inter Milan's transfer department.
Inter Milan moved very quickly, and they quickly found Tony's information - from a resume perspective, this Tony's performance was not very good. He is now twenty-seven years old, but before the age of twenty-three, he had
Playing in a league lower than Serie A, his performance in Vicenza in the 2000-01 season was pretty good, with nine goals in thirty-one games, which allowed him to join Brescia, who owned Baggio, and became the first player in Brescia.
He performed well in one season and scored 13 league goals, which was quite good. However, he encountered a bottleneck the next season and only scored two goals in the entire season. This led him to join Serie B last summer with a worth of 6 million.
Team Palermo, and Tony performed very well in Serie B last season, scoring 30 goals in 45 games in Serie B. This scoring rate is top-notch, but Dick will suddenly ask for him.
It still makes the members of the Inter Milan transfer department a little uncomfortable...
"I just want him, do you understand? I remember that when he signed the contract with Palermo last season, there was a release clause... If I contact him, I think he will be moved."
Dick's instructions were very decisive. The season has just ended, which can be said to be the best time to poach Tony, because at this time, Palermo is unlikely to immediately change the contract with Tony. As for why Dick knew about Tony
There is a termination clause in the contract. That's because when Dick played CM0304 in his previous life, he knew that Tony had a termination clause...
However, his termination fee in the game is only more than 4 million euros, and now Dick already knows that Tony's worth when he went to Palermo last season was 6 million euros. Of course, Palermo cannot be stupid enough to sign a transfer.
Lower termination fee...
Soon, the news came that Tony's termination fee was no more, no less, exactly six million.
Dick didn't know how Tony signed with Palermo at that time, but it seemed that it would be much easier to poach Tony.
"Let's make an offer, six million. If you don't agree, tell them and we will directly activate the termination clause... What does Tony think?"
"He is very excited, but he is worried that he will not be able to play in the game after coming to Inter Milan. He is not young anymore, so naturally he will not be as impulsive as young people." Blanca replied with a shrug.
"Well, as expected, a few ups and downs will make people calmer." Dick nodded: "Do you have his phone number? I'll give him a call."
What Tony didn't expect was that someone from Inter Milan had just contacted him the day before, and soon Dick called him.
"Luca? Tony? Hello, I'm Dick."
Listening to the English coming from the other end of the phone, Tony was surprised and replied: "Ah...Hello, Mr. Dick, I'm Tony."
"Luka, I think our staff has contacted you before... Believe me, I didn't buy you just to strengthen the substitute lineup. Now my forward substitutes are enough, Cruz, Martins... these are all
He is a good substitute. What I lack is a player who can play the main role! Your characteristics will be completely different from other Inter Milan forwards. I need such a center at the front. If you can play the state of last season
, or even better, you will be the main force of Inter Milan, and nothing else will happen."
After hearing this, Tony finally let go of all his worries.
This is the benefit that fame brings. Although Dick is notorious, in the past few years, almost all the players he introduced have been useful and have spread throughout Europe. Young players hope that Dick will take a fancy to them.
After training, even players like Tony who are no longer young are the same. Dick has a good habit of directly telling the players about your status in the team. Generally speaking, there will be no changes. This kind of trust makes people trust you.
His reputation also played a huge role.
"Mr. Dick, I believe in you... I am very much looking forward to starting another Serie A career with Inter Milan."
After getting rid of Tony, the next thing is not too difficult - before Palermo had time to renew the contract with Tony, they encountered the black hand extended by Inter Milan...
"Tony is not for sale to us! We have to rely on him to avoid relegation!" Palermo's chairman Zamparini angrily rejected Inter Milan's offer - but he knew in his heart that if Tony wanted to leave, Palermo would
I can't keep him...
And Inter Milan also gave him enough face. The second round of offers came quickly. The cash did not increase, but they only added a player-forward Ventola. Their meaning was obvious, Tony and we are the best.
You must get it.
A somewhat helpless Zamparini agreed to Inter Milan's offer after listening to the opinions of the physical fitness evaluation team - Palermo's physical fitness evaluation team said that Tony's current physical fitness and condition are gradually declining.
The Palermo evaluation team made this decision in the second year, so Zamparini directly put Toni on the transfer market and fired the head coach Guidolin who opposed this. Now the price offered by Inter Milan has reached Toni.
The termination fee, plus a well-known Ventola, Ventola is well-known. Although he only played 28 times and scored four goals in Siena last season, his physical fitness seems to be very good.
, and at the same time, he is one year younger than Tony, and it seems that he still has potential that has not been tapped.
Zamparini agreed to Inter Milan's offer, and soon the two sides reached a consensus on the exchange of players. Ventola signed a three-year contract with Palermo, and the annual salary remained at 1.4 million euros, while Toni signed a contract with Palermo for three years.
Inter Milan signed a four-year contract and his salary doubled from 800,000 euros in Palermo to 1.6 million euros.
After confirming the introduction of Tony, Dick showed a satisfied smile.
"Put this news out and let everyone know that we have signed Tony." Dick said to Oriali, another important member of Inter Milan's leadership.
"Isn't this news...a bit too early? And to be honest, Tony's reputation is not that great, so there is no use spreading it out." Oriali said hesitantly.
"Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter whether Tony is famous or not. The key is that we have to tell everyone that we have signed a forward and a center." Dick said with a smile.
"Is this putting pressure on Parma?" Orialli asked after thinking for a while.
"There is this factor, but it is not just this." Dick laughed: "Now with Tony, we already have six forwards... What will other people think? Will Adriano be anxious? He will be anxious.
To put pressure on Parma, and we have so many forwards, naturally someone will leave. Cuaron knows that it is not in my plan, he will find a way to find a new home, and other..."
Oriali nodded with some enlightenment. Dick is also famous for his simplicity. When playing as a lone forward at Atletico Madrid, he only had three forwards, and when playing as a three-forward in Dortmund, he only had six forwards. Now here we go.
Going to Inter Milan, six forwards are definitely too many, not to mention the addition of Adriano. Everyone knows that Inter Milan will leave people now, so in terms of transfers, it will naturally appear to be a lot more lively, at least all kinds of football
The team will come to test the price and quote the price. How to grasp it at that time depends on Inter Milan.
Soon, on June 6, the third day after Dick took over, Inter Milan announced the first signing of the summer, adding forward Ventola for 6 million euros, bringing in last season's Italian striker.
B top scorer Luca Toni.
After this news came out, many fans found it funny - why did Inter Milan introduce a head coach like Dick, and the first signing was to buy a Serie B striker? Even if he is the top scorer in Serie B, but Serie B
It is normal for a B striker to perform poorly immediately after arriving in Serie A. What's more, Toni's performance in Serie A was not very good.
However, for insiders, the news revealed about this transaction is enough to make them have other associations...
