Chapter 1059 Summer Wind and Clouds (fifteen)
PS1: I continue to ask for recommendation votes here, saying that free books don’t require everyone to spend money, so it should be fine to give more recommendation votes? Thank you here~
PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.
"Chairman Corleon, we, Leverkusen, will never accept your offer!" When Carmond, who had originally planned to kill Fiorentina, was so shocked that he almost smashed his chin on the ground. After finally calming down, he replied in an extremely firm tone, "You should know that when we introduced Lucio from Benfica in January this year, his transfer fee reached 9 million euros. Moreover, during the half season of Leverkusen, Lucio performed very well. He was one of the heroes of our honor to the King of Sanya and the main member of Brazil's World Cup championship. In this case, you offered Lucio a lower price than when we introduced him, which really made us unacceptable."
By the way, thanks to Zhuang Mingge's intervention and the operation of GTM, Lucio in this life was able to land in Europe early and played for four and a half seasons in Benfica, one of the three major players in Portugal. This experience gave the Brazilian a deeper understanding of European football tactics. At the same time, Portugal advocates offensive league atmosphere and familiar language atmosphere (Portugal is the sovereign country of Brazil, and the official languages of both countries are Portuguese) also allowed Lucio to adapt to the European football environment faster and better. Therefore, Leverkusen would introduce Lucio from Benfica club at a higher price than in his previous life.
It is precisely because of this that Carlmond is so firmly opposed to Zhuang Mingge's offer. In the view of this fat manager, the club's previous selling of Ze Roberto and Flins under the pressure of Henes was already a stain that Leverkusen could never erase in history. If they performed this way in Lucio's transfer this time, then which player would devote himself to playing football at Leverkusen, how could they retain those good players, or ask for huge profits from player transfers like Udinese and Vicenza?
Always acquiring core players of domestic teams at a price lower than the market, this is the most criticized by fans by Bayern Munich and Henes. Logically speaking, clubs like Bayern that have the entire German football resources as their backing should not be so stingy when poaching other teams, but Henes did this and did it very well. Under Henes's operation, Bayern, the boss of the Bundesliga, broke the transfer fee record for the team's signings in Makai in his previous life until the summer of 2003, and the value of this new European Golden Boot is not more than 20 million euros. For example, those domestic players in Germany rarely have more than 10 million US dollars when joining Bayern. This shows how stingy Henes is.
Although Heness's stingy and cautious business strategy has accumulated a huge amount of wealth for Bayern and allowed the Bundesliga giant to survive the economic recession caused by the bankruptcy of the Kilch Group, it is precisely because of his stingy that other teams are difficult to get enough profits when selling their main players to Bayern, resulting in no other team in Germany that can be taken advantage of except Bayern. Whether it is Stuttgart and Bremen, Dortmund and Leverkusen, they only flourished for a short time, and then quickly disintegrated and declined under Bayern's offensive.
Now, in order to avoid such a fate, Carlmond said that he didn't want Lucio to transfer to Fiorentina at a relatively low price, and at least he had to make profits in this transaction that would allow him to rebuild the team.
"Manager Carlmond, I think the quotation of 8 million US dollars is already a very reasonable price." Regarding Carlmond's statement, Zhuang Mingge did not mean to raise the price, but further said, "Don't forget that the players in the central defender position are very special. They can't sell any high prices in the transfer market. For example, the 36.5 million euro defender transfer fee record set by French international Turam when joining Juventus last summer was the result of the inflated player value under the influence of the economic bubble. The same is true for your 9 million euros to introduce Lucio. With the current transfer market, 8 million is already a very high price. I believe that no team will offer higher transfer fees for Lucio at this time."
"It's hard to say, Chairman Corleon." Seeing that Zhuang Mingge was unwilling to raise the offer, Carmond smiled strangely and said, "If you release the news that Fiorentina is interesting to Lucio, I think there should be a lot more teams interested in him, right? I believe that at that time, if you want Lucio again, you may not be able to get it without 20 million US dollars."
"Haha, if you really think so, then just go." After the negotiations began, Zhuang Mingge seemed very calm and could not tell at all that he was determined to win Lucio. "However, I have to explain some things to you in advance. If Lucio's net worth exceeds a normal range under the price increase of these teams, then I will give up Lucio and consider other candidates instead."
"Chairman Corleon, I was just joking just now. You have a lot of sir, so don't follow me to care about these small things." Seeing that Zhuang Mingge had a disagreement, he was about to flash people. Carlmond, who was threatening to spread the news just now, was panicked and hurriedly tried to keep him.
It is not surprising that Kalmond will perform like this. After all, it is Leverkusen who urgently needs a large amount of funds to rebuild the team at this time, rather than Fiorentina, who only needs a rotation center back. What's more, Kalmond didn't know that Lucio was Zhuang Mingge's best choice, so after hearing Zhuang Mingge's words, the fat manager immediately panicked because he knew that even if the news was released to attract other teams to join this transfer, it would be difficult to attract competitors with better conditions than Fiorentina.
Since Lucio's low-level mistake in the quarterfinals against England in Brazil is really popular, and examples of his repeated participation in offenses in the game have caused the defensive void, the main central defender of the World Cup champion team can be said to be neglected in the transfer market. Even if Fiorentina's favor can attract many competitors to join, Lucio's transfer will become far away, leaving little time for Leverkusen to adjust the lineup. This is exactly what Kalmond, who is eager to rebuild the team, is most unbearable!
