After spending a weekend night in Liverpool with his two sons, Aldridge returned to London and unexpectedly discovered that there was no shortage of buyers for Vandermeyde.
This should be the first player that the club has actively sold since Aldridge took charge of the team.
Although Van der Meyde is a substitute, which of the substitutes sold by Millwall has a bad reputation?
Even Phillips, who was recruited from the amateur league and trained for three years before being released, has become a popular killer in the Premier League this year. If it were not for Henry and Larsson, Phillips would definitely be the top forward in the Premier League this season, because he is in the top scorer list.
The boss was ahead of the pursuer behind him.
Van der Meyde was expelled by Aldrich because of a violation of heaven's rules, not because of his own strength. This makes him easier to be robbed. Buyers are looking forward to introducing Van der Meyde at a low price and then watching Van der Meyde become popular in their own team.
, become a first-line star.
At night at Aldridge's house, club CEO Adam, Andrew, Ivan, and Aldridge were sitting in the living room.
Aldrich held a stack of purchase fax quotes in his left hand and a cigarette in his right hand. Yiwen sat next to him. When Aldrich was fascinated by the fax, she picked up the ashtray on the table and placed it on his right side to prevent him from missing it.
Notice that the cigarette ashes fell on the sofa.
Adam frowned slightly when he saw Yiwen's actions.
"Two million, two million, three million, three and a half million... They really think we are having a huge sale!"
Aldrich looked uninterested after flipping through it.
It would be a huge loss to sell Vandermede for two or three million.
Andrew took the document from his hand, lowered his head and quickly read through the pages.
Nine clubs from the Premier League have sent purchase offers, eight from La Liga, and five from Serie A. There are six from France, four from Germany, and others such as Portugal and the Netherlands. There are also a few clubs that are interested in Van der Meyde.
Andrew also looked impatiently. He complained: "I don't know if they treat Van der Meyde as gold picked up on the road or as garbage that others don't want. There are many people who want it, but the price they give is really shameless. Arsenal, just open it."
£4 million."
Aldridge got up and went to get a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and said casually: "I don't want to see him in the Premier League. So, Premier League teams don't consider it, the club will reject it."
Andrew only eliminated the clubs that Van der Meyde and as an agent personally believed that Van der Meyde should not go to.
If the club is interested and makes an offer, it depends on whether the player agrees or not.
After Aldrich came back with the beer, his cell phone vibrated on the coffee table. He picked up the phone while drinking beer and laughed.
Yiwen watched curiously as Aldrich sent messages with a smile on his face, sending one and then receiving another, which made her curious.
"friend?"
"That's right, Galliani also wants Van der Meyde."
Yiwen said without knowing the truth: "You have a good relationship with him?"
"That's not true, it's just that we deal with him a lot."
"Need to talk for a long time?"
"Well...he wants to give the White Wolf nothing. This guy proposed to let Millwall rent Van der Meyde to AC Milan next season. He said he was worried that I would regret selling him in the future. He wanted to rent him out first.
I will decide after the year, and I was advised to calm down. Hey, I am not in a hurry to get angry, I am already very calm. This guy has too many thoughts and sounds like he is thinking about me. If I listen to him, I will be betrayed by him.
He even helped him count the money!"
Chi.
Andrew couldn't help laughing.
If Millwall really loaned Van der Meyde out for one year, it would mean that there would be almost no return on Van der Meyde, and even if there was any, the return would be very low.
Because Van der Meyde only has two years left on his contract.
One year later, even if Aldrich wants to take back Van der Meyde, the other party will probably refuse to renew the contract.
When the contract expires and he becomes a free agent, if he doesn't want to go anywhere in the world, the club that wants him will definitely provide him with a generous signing fee and salary contract.
Furthermore, if Van der Meyde is loaned to AC Milan, will he still be bewitched by Galliani?
Aldrich knew it well and was just texting to play with Galliani.
After Andrew deleted the offers, he placed five faxes from the club in front of Aldridge. At this moment, Aldridge's phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and said, dumbfounded: "Same city, same rhythm."
Caller, President of Inter Milan: Moratti.
While the others remained silent, Aldrich answered the phone with a smile on his face.
Speaking of which, Inter Milan is really unlucky this season. In the summer, they created the highest transfer record in world football. They introduced Vieri and the team has two great forwards. Unfortunately, Ronaldo was injured in November last year and he recuperated for more than four months.
After returning to normal form, Inter Milan also bid farewell to the championship early in the league, and now they are working hard for a Champions League spot and the Coppa Italia.
Can Moratti not be sad?
Spend money every day, spend a lot of money, but the team's record is always unsatisfactory.
No, I heard that Millwall was going to sell off players. Moratti didn't ask the team to send an offer. He simply called Aldrich directly to talk to him, and he wanted to get Van der Meyde no matter what.
Produced by Millwall, it must be a top quality product!
Moratti feels that most of the famous players that the club spent a lot of money to buy are not worthy of their reputation. On the contrary, there are many treasures hidden here in Millwall.
Otherwise, why is it that Millwall sells people every year, but its record does not fall but rises!
Aldridge and Moratti have never made a deal before, but this time, Moratti is full of confidence.
I don’t want to poach your main players, let alone your stars of hope, but you have already put up your discarded generals for bidding, so you should be able to give me an advantage!
"10 million pounds? Well, it's really high, but Van der Meyde wants to go to Deportivo. You also know that Deportivo has invested a lot in the past two years and is about to win the league championship in La Liga this year.
They offered 12 million pounds, and Van der Meyde's agent has informed the club that they must accept Deportivo's offer. After all, La Liga's style is more suitable for a technical player like Van der Meyde."
While talking on the phone, Aldrich picked up a fax in front of him. It was indeed Deportivo's offer, a sincere offer!
8 million pounds!
"15 million? Let's do this. I will only agree to the offers from Inter Milan and Deportivo La Coruna, and then I will leave the rest to you and the players to negotiate, and the final choice will be left to Van der Meyde. What do you think? Well, well, okay
Yes, hey, you're welcome, it's just a normal club player transaction. Okay, don't worry, um, bye."
When Aldrich hung up the phone, Yiwen covered his mouth with one hand and finally burst into laughter, hitting him on the arm with the other.
Aldrich stacked all the faxes on the coffee table in front of him, preparing to destroy them later with a paper shredder.
"Okay, everything about Van der Meyde is over. He will transfer to Inter Milan. We received 15 million pounds. Andrew, you make sure nothing happens to him before the transfer. If he gets injured, it will cause a scandal or something, right?"
It’s no good for everyone.”
Andrew smiled and passed by, while Adam asked doubtfully: "Boss, what about Deportivo's price?"
Aldrich said casually: "Agree."
"Who can guarantee that Van der Meyde will accept Inter Milan's conditions?"
"Moratti's checkbook will guarantee it."
Aldrich felt a little hungry, so he invited the three of them to go out for a late-night snack. The night was not bad.
In the 35th round of the Premier League, Millwall visited St. James Park to challenge Newcastle United.
There is a high probability that this will be the decisive day of the Premier League season.
If Millwall is undefeated, they will declare a successful defense of their title.
If Millwall loses, Manchester United will not win. They will also declare a successful defense of the title.
Newcastle United fans are living a more comfortable life now.
They have experienced ups and downs in mentality this season, and now, with the team in the middle, they feel somewhat satisfied.
Bobby Robson brought Newcastle United out of the trough, and the league is not over yet. The points Newcastle United got are almost the same as the points they got in the 38th round last season, considering that Robson took over in September.
At that time, Newcastle United was ranked last in the league, so Robson's ability to score points has far exceeded that of Gullit's coaching period.
The old coach has brought hope to the Magpies fans with his experience and wisdom. This season, he has returned from the panic of relegation to a stable position. Naturally, the fans cannot ask for more, and they also believe that under the leadership of Robson, Newcastle United can complete its revival.
Great cause, or re-emergence.
This game is played at a fast pace in the middle of the week. Millwall will also play the FA Cup semi-finals on the weekend, and the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals will usher in the middle of next week.
Therefore, in terms of team arrangements, he asked the substitutes to rest and wait for the FA Cup match at the weekend. In this game, all the main players played, and Larsson also entered the starting lineup. He came off the bench in the last game and did not exert much effort.
It’s hard to comment. In this game, we can specifically examine his condition after a minor injury.
Aldridge wants to completely end the suspense of the Premier League today, let the main lineup play this game, and face the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals with the momentum of successfully defending the title. If everything goes well, they will have enough time to prepare for the Champions League final and combine it with time.
In terms of the continuity of players' status, this node should be the most ideal, and the team as a whole will not relax due to the lack of gaps in key battles.
Newcastle United had nothing to ask for and played extremely unrestrainedly at home. They were not at all frightened when they met the entire Millwall team. For them, the score meant more honor than practical significance. After 90 minutes of hard work, St. James Park became the stadium.
A place for Millwall fans to party.
"At 2:4, Millwall secured this season's Premier League title through an away victory. Congratulations to Millwall. This is their third league title and their first successful defense of the league title. Hall has gained a lot of success in the new millennium.
The first championship, but Millwall's season is not over yet. They have more ambitious goals to pursue. In the FA Cup semi-finals four days later, if Millwall successfully passes, can we expect Millwall to create
What about a great achievement that has never been achieved before in England? League, Champions League, FA Cup, treble!"
In the same round of the league, Manchester United still won. This was their 8th consecutive victory in the second half of the season. However, it still could not stop Millwall from shattering the theoretical possibility of winning the championship. There were three rounds left in the league, and Millwall took the lead.
Manchester United wins the league title with 12 points!
Robson took the initiative to walk up to Aldridge after the game and extended his hand to congratulate Aldridge. Aldridge had a smile on his face and chatted with the old coach for a long time until he was dragged away by Millwall to celebrate.
After the game, the first congratulatory text message Aldridge received was from Ferguson...
