Galliani was so embarrassed that Aldrich sprayed him with a mouthful of wine. Aldrich coughed twice and immediately picked up the napkin at hand to wipe the other man's head.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean it. I really didn't mean it."
Galliani wiped the wine from his head and face, squeezed out a smile and said: "It's okay, it doesn't matter. Well, what do you think?"
"How about what?"
"AC Milan will take these four players away."
Aldrich poured another glass of wine, shook his head and said, "Why do I think you are talking about buying Chinese cabbage, not about player transfers?"
"Eh? What should I say? I am very sincere, and AC Milan is also very sincere!"
"No,?"
Galliani was stunned. His plan was to take away these four players for 80 million pounds. Good guy, Aldrich opened his mouth!
He said with a grimace: "It won't be so expensive, right?"
Aldridge's expression became serious, he took Galliani's hand and said seriously: "Let's talk about Materazzi first. His size alone is worth 10 million. Let's talk about his defensive ability. First of all, he has no air defense.
Question, can you count the number of forwards who can crush him through physical confrontation? Vieri? Come on, Vieri is dying. This is at least 10
A million pounds bonus, right? The top-level experience he has accumulated in Millwall over the years, and the championship temperament he has cultivated, just for his honors, are at least 10 million pounds, right? This is 30 million pounds, and Millwall is not a big jumper.
It's a fire sale. Why don't you pay at least 5 million pounds more to show your sincerity? If you buy it for 35 million pounds, you won't lose money."
Galliani was stunned and wanted to speak. But Aldrich continued: "As for Zambrotta, he is now a great player who can compete for the world's best full-back. He is good at offense and defense, and plays a role as a winger when attacking. Occasionally, he is also a winger.
Can defeat the opponent in one go. Damn, I really don’t want him to leave. But since he wants to leave, I won’t stop him, but do you want to
How much is Carlos worth? You go to Real Madrid and offer 30 million pounds. Do you think Real Madrid will sell Carlos to you? And how old is he now? 25 years old, the golden age! No matter who buys it, it will be at least 5 years.
The location is world-class, so you can sit back and relax. 40 million, you are my friend. That’s why I gave you this price.”
Galliani was about to cry.
"Gattuso, I admit, this kid is not well-known, but I like him. I like him very much. He is like a matador. When he gets excited, he can kill the entire opponent's midfield by himself! Don't say that either.
He plays rough, but he is very smart, he does not stick to the ball, and his ball is stable, you know? According to Millwall's technical statistics, who has the highest ball success rate? Well, it's not Gattuso, but Gattuso ranks
top three
, higher than Pirlo, he almost never makes a passing mistake, which ensures defensive safety. You understand the importance of this! Besides, you definitely want Pirlo the most, but Pirlo can’t defend well, you have to
Give him the role of a gold medal escort, right? Apart from Gattuso, look for me, who else can you find to play such a role? Gattuso has at least 35 million pounds, which is a bargain for you."
Galliani lowered his head and began to sweat on his forehead.
"Pirlo, who is Pirlo? The third place in the Ballon d'Or last year, Millwall's brain, how many years did it take me to cultivate such a unique genius? Ah? Don't look at the achievements of Millwall's previous offensive players.
The ball is so messy, without Pirlo, their goals will be at least half discounted, Pirlo's performance in the game
His control ability, contribution to offense and importance, you Italian football critics are analyzing it every day. Needless to say, how old is he? 23 years old, and for a player like him, the older he is in his position on the field,
, the richer the experience, the condition will not decline. What you want to buy is a capable person.
A midfield organizer who has been playing for the team for ten years or even longer. Zidane is worth more than 50 million pounds when he is over 30 years old. I know that Pirlo does not have the same style of play as Zidane, but Pirlo is better because of his youth. No
Say more, the fixed price is 60 million pounds. If you want to take away these four players, fine
Ah, let me calculate, 35, 40, 35, 60, uh, you see, sell them individually, we are friends, I will give you a discount, your boss signs the check, I will let you go, you don’t have to wait for the World Cup to end.
Is it fun to be able to make a deal so that you don't have to worry about it at night and can prepare for next season as soon as possible?"
Aldrich finished speaking in one breath, then raised his eyebrows at Galliani.
Galliani smiled bitterly in his heart. Aldrich, the prince, was selling his own mercies and boasting. What could he say?
Find fault?
There are so many to choose from, so what are you buying them for? Isn’t it just a slap in the face?
In fact, what Aldrich said is basically correct.
If it weren't for the merits and outstanding abilities of these players, Galliani really wouldn't have come here in person.
The reason why his psychological price is very low is due to practical factors.
These Italian internationals want to return to their home country and are not leaving for competitive reasons. So, first of all, in terms of competition, clubs outside of Italy can be excluded. In other words: there will be less price hikes.
There are many attractive clubs in Italy, and the top three in the north naturally bear the brunt. Secondly, clubs like Lazio and Parma are in financial crisis, and the attractiveness of Roma and competition for transfer fees can be ignored.
Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan, to put it bluntly, these are the three.
Given Millwall's off-field feud with Juventus, the likelihood of the two doing business is almost nil.
Galliani wants to compete with nothing more than Inter Milan.
Inter Milan has no time to think about summer transfer operations now, because they are busy competing for the championship. The turmoil in the transfer market, let alone whether the transfer can be finalized, will first affect the internal people's hearts. Inter Milan management is not
Will do stupid things that will destroy the Great Wall. Moreover, Cooper’s style of leading the team. In terms of competition, players like Pirlo are definitely not what Cooper wants. Pirlo is good or not.
, but it is not the type that Cooper likes to use, and it is useless to buy it. Therefore, Aldrich said that Pirlo is worth 60 million pounds. If it is an open bidding, all the giants in Europe will come to compete. Even if it does not reach 60 million pounds,
, a discount of 40 million pounds should be no problem, but now that AC Milan is the most sincere and actually participates in the competition, the transfer price will definitely not be raised.
"Can it be cheaper?"
Galliani was silent for a long time, then squeezed out this sentence.
Aldrich looked at him for a while, then slapped the table and said, "Okay. After so many years of friendship, now that you have opened your mouth, it would be unreasonable for me to refuse. Five million. No, 10 million! If someone else had said this to me,
I will definitely raise the price."
Galliani held Aldrich's hand with his backhand and said sincerely: "Aldrich, I know, thank you so much, why not do this. Round up the whole number, 100 million pounds!"
Aldrich's eyes widened and he wanted to pull his hand back, but Galliani held it firmly. He sighed and said, "Old friend, you are making this very difficult for me. Almost half of the main force of the team only has 100 million."
Pounds? How do I explain it to the fans? Your price is an insult to Millwall.
It's an insult. It's an insult to these four players. The honors they have received in total are at least forty or fifty championship trophies! Is it worth 100 million pounds? I will gather 7 substitutes, plus the four of them, go
If you play business games for a year, you can earn at least 50 million pounds."
Galliani figured out that Aldrich would definitely not sell these four players for less than 100 million pounds, and at best there would be a float of about 10 million.
Galliani gritted his teeth and said, "No more!"
Aldrich looked suspicious and asked: "Can AC Milan produce so much?"
Lao Bei is as rich as the country, but that does not mean that Lao Bei is a fool. He invested so much all at once. A rich man who plays politics will probably come up with a negative answer after calculating the profit and loss.
It's very simple. If you invest 40 million pounds every summer, you can make Milan fans sing the praises of Old Bailey, vote for him obediently, and check the support option in the approval survey. Why spend so much money all at once?
Woolen cloth?
Seeing that Aldrich seemed to agree, Galliani smiled slightly, let go of his hand, and said: "In the summer, we can pay 50 million pounds directly, and then pay the rest in installments. What do you think?"
Sample?"
"No need to talk! Millwall never accepts installment payments, and money is becoming less and less valuable. You understand this. Ten years ago, 10 million pounds could make a shocking transfer. Ten years later, 10 million pounds will only buy a
Second-rate player, old friend, are you trying to trick me to death?"
Seeing that this negotiation was not appropriate, Galliani took another move and suggested: "Well, how about AC Milan joining the player deal?"
Aldrich turned his head to the other side, obviously not interested, but Galliani started to sell the product with excitement.
"Old friend, how about you listen to my introduction first, Albertini? A generation of midfield superstars with countless fans. Although he is a little older, he can provide a wealth of experience in Millwall. In this regard, you
You can understand the importance, right?"
Aldridge curled his lips and said: "It's so good, why wouldn't Ancelotti want it?"
About four months ago, Ancelotti came to AC Milan to take up a new job. Although his two years at Juventus were not successful, he did not fall to the bottom all of a sudden. Two runner-up finishes at Juventus, plus
With his previous success at Parma, An Pang is now considered to be in a decent level among first-class coaches.
Albertini no longer wants to play the main role in AC Milan and just wants to retire quietly in AC Milan. However, Ancelotti does not want to see him again, so Albertini can only leave sadly.
If Millwall didn't have Lampard and Alonso who are about to return, Aldridge might actually be interested in Albertini's experience, but now, he refuses to let Millwall become a nursing home for other stars in their later years.
Galliani continued: "I know you like young players. We have many talented young players here. How about Borriello? How about Matri? And our 18-year-old talented midfielder Pastore.
Luo, the 17-year-old Portoloto, Piccolo known as the new Piero, Stefani known as the new Costacurta..."
Galliani almost broke his tongue. Aldrich knew some of the young players he was talking about, such as Borriello and Matri, but there were some players who were named so-and-so II, and he didn't even know their names.
I've never heard of it, so I guess it's as useless as "Qin II".
Galliani's throat was filled with smoke and he couldn't blow anymore. Aldrich then said: "Old friend, those players you mentioned, there are a dozen new Henrys and Ronaldinho IIs in my training base."
, little Pirlo... I am selling players, not buying them. Don't be greedy. Since there is only so much money, you can just pick two of these four players and buy them away. Uh, I will only accept it once.
The transfer fee must be paid in full, installment payments will not be accepted.”
Galliani said pitifully: "I don't buy it. If I weren't greedy, wouldn't it be possible for Inter Milan to take action? In this way, wouldn't it be impossible to distance ourselves from our competitors in terms of overall strength?"
This reason is very simple, and Aldrich also understands it. He said helplessly: "Then I can't give it to you for free, can I?"
"How do you call it a free gift?"
"If you offer 100 million, I will sell you three players and give you one as a gift, isn't it?"
"well......"
Galliani scratched his bald head, and finally took a step back. The idea of taking away four players in a package failed. Now it only depends on how many players the team can bring in, 3 or 2. Now he will return to the club and consider it again.
Think about it and combine it with the opinions of the coaching staff. Since it is 3 out of 4 or 2 out of 4, you must buy the best one, the most practical one, and the one that the head coach is satisfied with.
