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.

Lazio and Fiorentina, two clubs that are not short of money, actually have a deadlock in the negotiations on Deco's transaction due to the inability to reach a transfer fee. This situation surprised many people.

In fact, the reason for this situation is that on the one hand, Polo, who represented Fiorentina in charge of the negotiations, received the instructions from Andinioni by Zhuang Mingge's "slaughter of Lazio with a harsh knife". Naturally, he had to follow this instructions to negotiate with Lazio. The excessive asking price made Lazio staff members who had a large budget dare not easily agree; on the other hand, although Abu himself did not set an upper limit on Lazio's transfer budget, Mancini and Begilistan, who were responsible for the specific execution, did not spend money generously, but helped the team save as much as possible within their ability.

After all, neither Mancini nor Begiristan wants Lazio to leave people with an image of a sucker. Because once this impression is formed and fixed in people's minds, Lazio may have a considerable price to buy people in the future, which is very unfavorable to the team's future development.

For example, in Chelsea in his previous life, although they relied on Abram's financial support to build an extremely combative iron army, it has to be said that in the transfer of many players, Chelsea paid at least 30% to 50% higher than the normal market price!

Although Begilistan and Mancini are not time travelers and do not know what is happening in another world, this does not prevent them from trying their best to avoid this situation from Lazio. After all, they are Lazio employees now, so they naturally have to seriously consider the club's future and image.

However, this deadlock did not bother the two clubs for too long. Because not long after, a latest order from Abramovich changed the situation. He asked Mancini and Begiristan not to care about the price Lazio had to pay in this transfer, and to handle Deco's transfer as soon as possible!

After all, Lazio broke the rules first in Deco's transfer. If Fiorentina is not compensated for certain amounts of transfer fees, then Lazio, who broke the rules, will not be guaranteed to be recorded by Florence and will be left to be liquidated in the future.

Seeing that the big boss personally expressed his attitude on this matter, Mancini and Begiristan, who had originally planned to save some transfer budget for the club in Deco's transaction, immediately started transfer negotiations with Florence again. Without the need to stick to the upper limit of 20 million US dollars, the negotiations between the two sides naturally made great progress.

Finally, after a period of not-so-frequent debate and the details were determined, the two clubs reached an agreement on the deal: Lazio club will introduce Fiorentina midfielder Anderson Deco for $30 million, of which the cash is $26 million, and Lazio will pay the amount to Fiorentina in one lump sum when the transfer is completed; as for the remaining $4 million, Lazio is preparing to use veteran Diego Simeone to offset this part of the fee.

Both the players involved and the clubs of both sides were quite satisfied with the conclusion of this deal. Deco naturally needs no need to say much. Simeone, who was sent to Fiorentina as the top deal, was also delighted that he was able to join such a top giant in his late career. After Peron left, Lazio once again had a first-class organizational core and achieved the upgrade of the team's lineup; Fiorentina reduced the losses caused by Deco's departure as much as possible, and at the same time, obtained Simeone, an experienced veteran, and strengthened the team's bench depth.

In fact, as the main midfielder and new Italian international who won the double championship this season, Deco's price could have been a little higher. Unfortunately, Deco's contract with Fiorentina is only one year left. When the players clearly expressed their desire to leave the team, Fiorentina naturally could not complete the contract renewal with him. In this way, Deco's value was naturally suppressed.

After completing Deco's deal and taking Simeone into his pocket, Zhuang Mingge focused his attention on strengthening the second team's lineup. After all, Fiorentina's first team did not have much recruitment work this summer. After transferring Ribery and De Rossi, the young players, Ribery and De Rossi, to the first team, and after Simeone, as a veteran, Fiorentina's first team has been declared full. If the lineup is to be adjusted or strengthened, then they have to clear the space in the first team first before taking the next action.

For Zhuang Mingge, it is undoubtedly much more difficult to strengthen the second team of Fiorentina than when he rebuilds the Purple Lily ten years ago. Because unlike back then, this is a team destined to be able to hang out in the second division. At the same time, considering that the main function of the second team is to help the first team train players, this forced Zhuang Mingge to spend more brain cells and time looking for players who meet the conditions.

Just as Zhuang Mingge was thinking about how to strengthen the second team, Abramovich used a large number of rubles to help Lazio win one goal after another in the transfer market, allowing the Blue Eagle's strength to rapidly improve at an astonishing speed.

It has to be said that Deco's joining seemed to trigger a huge chain reaction. After learning the news, the players who were still hesitant of Lazio's recruitment agreed to the contract provided by the other party and became members of the Blue Eagle's tent.

You should know that although due to factors such as appearance, play style, and personality, Deco is still not comparable to Pirlo and Barack in this life, as a member of the main lineup of Fiorentina and Redondo's natural successor after he grows up, Deco's strength is recognized by most professionals. Therefore, after Deco announced the transfer to Lazio, many stars let go of their hesitation, because in their opinion, even if Lazio, who has Deco in charge, may not be much worse.

Therefore, Ronaldinho, the only 3R group who has not entered the four major leagues, transferred from Paris Saint-Germain for US$40 million. Ivorian international Didier Drogba, who played for Monaco, also put on the Blue Eagles' jersey under the call of the Ruble... These stars who are quite famous in European football have become Lazio's spoils during this period.
