spn June 10, 2007 is an extremely important day for Li Yu. Today, a hearing on labor certification will be held in London.
Moyes, the head coach of Everton Club, accompanied Li Yu to London. This was the first time that Li Yu met his future head coach. The middle-aged Scotsman with a warm smile on his face said that Scots have a fiery personality, but Moyes gave
Li Yu's first impression was that of kindness.
Accompanying Moyes was Li De, the club's legal adviser. This time it was mainly up to him to help Li Yu win the labor certificate. During the whole process, Li Yu only had to answer a few questions, and Li De did the rest of the work.
to complete.
Premier League teams have been criticizing this labor certification policy. According to the regulations of the British Ministry of Labor, non-EU players introduced by British clubs must participate in 75% of the country's national team's international competitions in the past year, and the country's FIFA
The ranking must be among the top 64.
According to this regulation, players like Li Yu will definitely not be able to play at Everton, and Everton will apply for the ‘special genius clause’ for Li Yu.[
The club applies to the Ministry of Labor to hold a hearing. The Ministry of Labor will select a 6-member jury for different labor certificate application cases. After listening to the club's statement, it will decide whether to issue a labor certificate.
Everton club used the opportunity of only one quota per year on Li Yu.
Special talent requires the player to prove his ability in other European leagues, prepare his materials and provide a favorable witness, and then hold a hearing.
What's ridiculous is that Li Yu's Italian Cup Golden Boot, which he didn't receive at all, is his most powerful proof material at present. The certifier has not yet appeared, but Everton has already contacted him early in this regard, and he is definitely a heavyweight.
The entire hearing went extremely smoothly. Everton made a lot of preparations in terms of public relations, especially the witness. No one expected that Moyes invited the current Manchester United head coach Alex Ferguson.
Li Yu is deeply honored to have such a heavyweight person serve as a certifier. As the last obstacle for Li Yu to land in the Premier League, the labor certificate seems to be no problem now.
When it came time for Li Yu to answer the judges' questions, the judges didn't ask any sharp questions at all. They just asked why you wanted to move to the Premier League? What is the most attractive thing about the Premier League for you?
After answering a lot of nonsense, Li Yu was fine. She originally thought that she would be like in the Hong Kong TV series, where she would have to go to the witness box to be cross-examined. There was a judge wearing a cloak and a white wig, but it turned out
None of the pictures in his imagination appeared, and Li Yu himself was nervous for a long time in vain.
The hearing lasted for more than 2 hours, and the outcome of the hearing will not be known until a week later.
However, everyone present at the meeting could feel that Li Yu would soon become an official member of Everton.
As soon as I walked out of the hearing, I was immediately surrounded by various local media in the UK. In the UK, a place with the most developed football media, any news about players will be reported by the media. There is no way, the national love for football makes the media spare no effort.
Reporting, there is often some big transfer news, it is always reported by
The British media were the first to disclose the news, but it was often false news. However, this reporting method that would rather kill the wrong than let go also revealed a lot of real transaction insider information. The British media also had a special skill that was to brag about many local young players.
, they were all blown away early. No country’s media is as good at this kind of praise as the British.
"I would like to ask Mr. Moyes, what is your motivation for buying Li Yu?"
"If this hearing is unsuccessful, will this transaction continue?"
"Everton has been prudent in the transfer market. Does the introduction of Li Yu mean that the club has changed in this regard?"
"Li Yu was permanently abandoned by the national team. Will this have an impact on the team's future recruitment work?"
They asked questions about everything. Li Yu finally realized how powerful the British media is. In Italy, if you don’t bother to talk about something, the media will not take the initiative to interview you. But now, many media have requested interviews. Li Yu has asked for interviews one by one. He politely declined, "It seems that it is very important to have good dealings with the media in the UK!"
After basically settling the issue of Li Yu's labor certificate, Moyes shifted his energy to other transfer aspects and began to figure out how to do a good job in recruiting for next season. No club in Europe opened the transfer gate on July 1st. The transfer started after the start of the season. The club's board of directors gave a transfer fee of 12 million pounds this season. The introduction of Li Yu alone has already cost 5 million. Moyes has to be careful about the subsequent player transfers.
In the Premier League, Arsenal is famous for being a tough guy who only buys young players who are not worth much. Then Everton is synonymous with careful calculation. The beginning of every season's transfer is the most painful period for head coach Moyes. The transfer fee is not large and it is better to spend less than in vain. Moyes can only take action early and start his own Taobao.[
The first thing that needs to be added is the players in the midfield position. Moyes has already identified several players.
The most confident among these players is the Danish midfielder Gravesson of the Scottish Premier League Celtics. This bald player known as the "Mad Dog" is thick and thin. He is not only strong and has outstanding running ability, but also passes and dribbles. He has excellent skills. Once in the Everton team, Graveson was the absolute core figure in the midfield. Not only did he take on most of the defensive tasks in the team's midfield, he was also able to actively advance forward in the offense and use passes to create threats.
After transferring from Real Madrid to the Scottish Premier League Celtic for one and a half years, Gravesen only played 29 games. It is said that the team no longer wants to pay a high salary for a substitute player. Moyes is preparing to bring the veteran back to Everton Dayton, and he did not plan to spend a single transfer fee. He wanted to complete the transaction on loan. Everton only paid 60% of Graveson's salary at Celtic in the Scottish Premier League.
Although Gravesen is no longer in peak form, he is still a relatively good substitute option for the team's current midfielder.
There is another player that Moyes is also preparing to introduce on loan, and that is Dortmund's South African international Stephen Pienaar. Pienaar was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and can play as a forward, winger or full-back.
He is an outstanding player from the Ajax training camp in South Africa. He represented Ajax in the domestic league for the first time on February 24, 2002. In the 2001-02 season, he played a total of 8 times and scored one goal. In the 2002-03 season, Stephen Pienaar He firmly occupied the core position of Ajax's midfield, and was selected for the South African national team to participate in the World Cup in Korea and Japan in 2002.
In 2006, Stephen Pienaar announced that he would not renew his contract with Ajax and joined Borussia Dortmund. The club hoped that he could replace Rosicky, who moved to Arsenal, and become the core organizer of the yellow and black army. However, the South African The performance of the international team was disappointing. He played 25 times in the Bundesliga throughout the season, without scoring and only assisting 1 time.
Moyes has actually been observing for a long time and sent scouts to observe Pienaar's games many times. He found that Dortmund made huge mistakes in using Pienaar, which directly led to his unsatisfactory performance in the Bundesliga. It was not Pienaar's fault.
The technique is not good, but Dortmund completely applies Rosicky's core tactics in tactical arrangements. Pienaar and Rosicky are fundamentally different. The Czech is better at breaking through the ball and shooting from the outside, while Pienaar has a light body and a high frequency of movements.
He is fast, has a strong ability to capture opportunities in front of the goal, and is especially good at light shooting. He is an intelligent frontcourt attacker, but his body is slightly thin and he often suffers in confrontations with opposing defensive players.
Moyes seized this opportunity and has now reached a consensus with Pienaar to help him get rid of the shadow of the Bundesliga. The only obstacle is Dortmund's attitude, but Pienaar is a free transfer, and Dortmund should not set too many obstacles.
obstacle.
As for the players in the midfield, Moyes has been careful and careful to the extreme, but the progress of the players on the back line is not going well. Players who are famous in other leagues are worth too much. If you can buy one with a transfer fee of 12 million, it is not bad. Such a transfer fee is only
It allows him to choose young defenders from the UK. The originally promising players were either too expensive or were snapped up by the four major powers. In fact, there are not many people to choose from in England, and the value of English players is generally on the low side.
High, it is not easy to find a player with reasonable price and outstanding ability.
In terms of player transfers, the team's second forward Beatty is already discussing the transfer issue. This player who spent a transfer fee of 6 million pounds from Everton and had high hopes only scored a measly 2 goals in 33 games last season.
If he scores a goal and he doesn't want to come off the bench, then he has only one option: transfer. Fortunately, the English Championship team Sheffield United intends to introduce this player who forgot to bring his shooting boots. The two clubs are discussing, but the transfer
His worth will definitely be significantly different from the transfer fee he paid for joining.
Richard Wright has been the backup goalkeeper for a season and has only played once. After his contract expires at the end of June, he will automatically terminate his contract and find a team that can give him more playing opportunities.
Fernandez's loan period has expired and he has returned to the Portuguese Super League Benfica.
The transfer of these players will not have much impact on Everton's combat effectiveness. After Beattie's departure, Everton has bought Li Yu. The substitute goalkeeper can be exempted from signing a visa or a player can be promoted to the reserve team. It can be said that so far,
Everton's recruitment work is progressing relatively smoothly. Li Yu can officially join on July 1st. By then, there should be no problem with Gravesson and Pienaar unless there are any accidents.
