023: The first sword in the team was struck at the captain after all.
Guardiola can no longer stand the fact that Bravo will continue to play the main role, and it is imperative to introduce a goalkeeper with a goalkeeper. And what he currently values is Crystal Palace's Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson, so now he does not have much
of other options.
No wonder Tong Yi can disgust Guardiola at this time.
But even though Manchester City is very rich, Guardiola still feels that Crystal Palace's asking price of 70 million pounds is really outrageous.
Who would spend so much to bring in a goalkeeper?
Chelsea said "Me!"
Of course, this hasn't happened yet, but it won't be long.
Guardiola of Manchester City is still considering it, while Bonucci has sent a reply to Juventus.
After Juventus learned of Tong Yi's request, it didn't take long for their latest offer to be delivered to Tong Yi's desk.
It can be seen that Juventus is really optimistic about Bonucci!
Uncle Allegri here hasn’t left Juventus yet. Juventus is a little impatient to get Allegri’s “enemy” Bonucci back. Isn’t this a bit overwhelming?
What does Allegri mean?
Yes, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Arsenal are currently in frequent contact with Allegri.
These three teams all changed coaches and reorganized this summer!
Real Madrid fired Zidane, Chelsea also fired Conte, and Arsenal Wenger announced his resignation early last season after the end of the season. These three wealthy clubs
They have all made room for reconstruction.
At this time, these three clubs unanimously took a fancy to Allegri.
This really raises Allegri's worth!
In fact, before this, the primary target of these three clubs was actually Tong Yi.
Before the end of the season, they contacted Tong Yi privately and frantically, but Tong Yi did not have Tong Yi. And later, when Tong Yi directly acquired AC Milan on his own, they knew that there was no chance, so they changed their target.
These three clubs all think that Allegri has done a good job at Milan and Juventus, and they all think that he is a good coach. And there are not many good coaches for them to choose from this summer, so they all like him together.
Allegri.
Chelsea simply wanted to replace Conte with a better Italian coach, so they set their sights on Allegri.
It is precisely because these three giants are interested in Allegri, which makes Juventus feel that they are unlikely to retain Allegri. So they have new ideas. According to reports
Corriere dello Sport reported that Juventus is preparing to invite Conte, who was kicked out by Chelsea, to take over Allegri and coach Juventus.
After all, Conte once played for and coached Juventus as a player. His coaching performance at Juventus was also very good, and he is very familiar with Serie A. He has no problems coaching Serie A teams at all.
, even better than Allegri.
So Juventus has also begun to contact Conte.
Conte also intends to return to coaching to prove himself!
So at this time, Conte came to disgust Allegri and wanted to see the sincerity of Juventus. He proposed that Juventus immediately introduce AC Milan's Bonucci.
Juventus will play a very important role.
The first effect of this is to piss off Allegri and make Allegri leave Juventus quickly.
However, Allegri has not yet made it clear that he wants to leave Juventus.
There are still some people in Juventus who are unwilling to give up Allegri.
So now the parties are stuck here.
However, in order to stabilize Conte, Juventus agreed to Conte's request and is now actively recruiting Bonucci!
After all, there are many teams that are interested in Conte now.
If they don't stabilize Conte, they will be in trouble if Allegri leaves at some unknown time and Conte doesn't come back!
Therefore, at this time, Juventus's offer came to Tong Yi's desk again!
Juventus did raise the price this time, but it was still far from Tong Yi's requirements. Their offer was 40 million euros.
Obviously, after Tong Yi saw it, he rejected it directly without any sincerity.
Tong Yi even directly called out 50 million euros, and there was no need to discuss anything less than 50 million euros.
Juventus is a bit hesitant and struggling.
In their view, Bonucci has the ability, but after all, he is old and over 30. There is no reason to continue to increase the price. They feel that it is not worth it. At this time, they are also struggling.
At this time, Manchester City sent a new offer to Crystal Palace, asking for 50 million pounds for Ederson.
This also shows Guardiola's thirst for Ederson.
Because this time he raised the price directly to 10 million pounds instead of 5 million pounds!
Perhaps Crystal Palace's sky-high asking price of 70 million pounds played a big role. After all, adding 5 million pounds would be only 45 million pounds, which is far from 70 million pounds. Guardiola and others also felt that Crystal Palace would not agree. So.
So he gritted his teeth and offered 50 million pounds!
However, Crystal Palace refused without delay and immediately refused.
Crystal Palace refused very simply!
This gave Guardiola and Manchester City the feeling that their offer was still far from the Crystal Palace people's psychological price.
This makes Guardiola and Manchester City people very angry!
Although we are rich, we are not big idiots or fools!
You Crystal Palace people, don’t go too far?
Then, Guardiola gritted his teeth and directly quoted 52 million pounds. Then, he was rejected by the Crystal Palace people.
Guardiola is really going crazy here!
The people at Crystal Palace are really greedy, and they deserve to have the reputation of being a black shop in Europe. It's really not an exaggeration at all.
Guardiola looked at Bravo's game videos on the list, and then looked at Ederson's game videos collected by scouts. He gritted his teeth again and directly quoted 55 million pounds!
This is almost reaching Guardiola's limit!
No matter how expensive it is, he really won't want Ederson, and will settle for the next best thing and look at other goalkeepers.
Crystal Palace seemed to have felt that Guardiola was reaching his limit, so this time he refused less simply. He waited for a long, long time, as if after a long inner struggle, he rejected Guardiola again.
request!
Guardiola is really crazy here, and he also thinks the Crystal Palace people are crazy!
You want to sell a goalkeeper for 70 million pounds? Are you human beings?
This made Guardiola really want to give up and give up on bringing in Ederson. But watching the video of Ederson's game, he really liked it more and more, and felt that Ederson was simply
He is a goalkeeper who is naturally in line with his skills and tactics. If he doesn't win, he will definitely leave a knot in his heart and he will never be able to get over it!
Guardiola really saw Ederson in his eyes and took it to heart.
There really is a feeling that it belongs to him!
After hesitating again and again, and gritting his teeth, Guardiola gave Crystal Palace an ultimatum: 57 million pounds. If he could do it, the deal would be done. If he couldn't, forget it. This was Manchester City's last offer.
After receiving the offer, McCarthy immediately informed Tong Yi.
What should I do if I ask Tong Yi?
McCarthy feels that this has really reached Guardiola's limit. If he disagrees with it, he will really collapse!
After Tong Yi pondered carefully, he smiled slightly and decided to disgust Guardiola again!
He told McCarthy that Ederson could be sold to Guardiola, but not for 57 million pounds, but for 57.5 million pounds! I want to see if Guardiola will give up his favorite player because of these 500,000 pounds.
Goalkeeper? I want to see if Guardiola will take back your last offer?
After receiving Tong Yi's reply, McCarthy was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect Tong Yi to be such a devil!
Why does Tong Yi want more than 500,000 pounds? This is simply stimulating Guardiola!
Is this going too far?
Once this offer comes out, the relationship between Crystal Palace and Guardiola may drop to a freezing point and they may become life-or-death enemies.
Isn't it bad to make enemies for no reason?
In fact, the current relationship between Crystal Palace and Manchester City, aren’t they still life-and-death enemies? Think about last season.
What the Manchester City fans have done, and considering how fierce the competition between the territories was last season, do you think Crystal Palace and Manchester City can still be allies?
McCarthy smiled bitterly, and then sent the final offer to Manchester City!
He can't see Guardiola's expression now, but he knows that Guardiola must be going crazy now and wants to kill Tong Yi's head immediately, right?
This is really disgusting!
Will Guardiola give up his favorite goalkeeper because of this 500,000 pounds?
After a period of struggle, Manchester City immediately sent a fax, and sure enough, Guardiola compromised. Manchester City was willing to spend 57.5 million pounds to introduce Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson from Crystal Palace!
There was no further obstruction from McCarthy's side, and Ederson was finally sold to Manchester City!
When Crystal Palace reached a deal with Manchester City, Juventus's offer for Bonucci came to Tong Yi's desk again. This time, Juventus quoted 45 million euros, which was exactly the price quoted above.
The price paid by Milan to acquire Bonucci from Juventus last season.
If the two parties really close the deal at this price, it will be equivalent to Juventus loaning Bonucci to Milan for free for one year, and Milan is responsible for Bonucci's salary for this year. From this point of view, AC Milan actually made a profit
of.
However, Tong Yi was very tough and responded directly to Juventus, saying that you can take Bonucci away for 50 million euros, otherwise there will be an interview. Tong Yi also said that this is the lowest price Milan can accept.
Moreover, Tong Yi also stated that they do not accept installment payments!
To be honest, installment payment is very popular in Serie A. Almost 70% to 80% of transactions involve installment payment. But Tong Yi is very disgusted with this thing, so he proposed not to accept installment payment.
.
Juventus originally didn't want to deal with Tong Yi, but thinking that they had to stabilize Conte, they had to continue to fight with Tong Yi. Juventus didn't want to spend 50 million euros to introduce Bonu.
Strange, so they proposed to add Higuain to the deal, plus some cash in exchange for Bonucci!
Higuain is too old and Juventus really doesn't need him anymore. They want to send Higuain away. After all, Higuain's salary is too high, 7.5 million euros a year after tax. So they are smart.
Higuain was added to the deal.
Then he was ruthlessly rejected by Tong Yi!
We deal with Bonucci here because of his high annual salary, and now you give us another one with the same annual salary? Then why do we Milan bother here? And we Milan don’t need Higuain!
Tong Yi didn't want to continue fighting with Juventus, so he gave an ultimatum of 50 million euros and refused to accept installment payments!
After careful discussion, Juventus agreed not to pay in installments, but the transfer fee was only 47 million euros.
Tong Yi didn't hesitate much, he just agreed and gave away Bonucci, the team's highest-paid player!
