Chapter 183 Encountering Moji

In the football circle today, if you ask Zhuang Mingge who he admires the most, he may not be able to answer; but if you ask Zhuang Mingge who he least wants to see is, then Juventus's old fox must be firmly at the top of the list.

That's right, the one who stopped Zhuang Mingge in the casino was Luciano Moji, general manager of Juventus Club.

"I said, Manager Moji, what do you mean?" Zhuang Mingge looked at the old fox in front of him with a bad look. You should know that although he and Moji have met many times, the relationship between them is as good as the two, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that in such a public situation, a person who has a bad relationship with you suddenly stops you, which will trigger some bad associations no matter how you say it.

"Ah, Chairman Corleon, I'm sorry, I have no intention of offending." Moji just saw Zhuang Mingge, a "acquaintance", and remembered that this person seemed to have a good relationship with the Monaco Club. Perhaps this time he deals with Monaco, he has to rely on the power of his compatriots.

Therefore, the old fox, who had no moral integrity, stopped Zhuang Mingge who was about to leave. From Moji's own perspective, blocking Zhuang Mingge is the best choice now. God knows whether he will be told that "he has returned to Florence" after contacting Zhuang Mingge...

However, in terms of timing, Moji did not choose well, because it was not Zhuang Mingge who was here, but also a little Groz.

As the saying goes, if you hinder other people's love affairs, you will be kicked to death by a horse.

Although the relationship between Groz and Zhuang Mingge is still above friendship and the lover is not satisfied, this does not prevent Groz from staring at the "uninvited guest" with a gaze that wants to kill: "Oh, isn't this Mr. Moji? It's been a long time no see, what wind blows you to Monaco?"

"Miss Rebecca!" Moji's heart skipped a beat, thinking it was a mess. He only paid attention to the acquaintance in front of him, but he didn't expect that he had missed a bigger name. "I'm very sorry, I didn't look very good. I only saw Mr. Corleon. I'm so embarrassed. Please forgive me."

Seeing Moji apologizing to himself in such a low posture, Groz was not satisfied with any dissatisfaction. He reached out and didn't hit the smiling man: "Mr. Moji, is there anything wrong with stopping us?"

Under the gaze of Groz, Moji had to give up the long speech he had prepared and briefly explained his purpose in coming to Monaco this time.

After listening to the old fox's words, Zhuang Mingge realized that Moji appeared in Monaco this time, not only to participate in the Winners Cup draw ceremony held by UEFA, but more importantly, he wanted to persuade Monaco to sell some players to Juventus. After all, after the arrival of the Bosman era, Monaco's players no longer accounted for foreign players. In addition, they belonged to France geographically (Monaco even entrusted national defense to France, which is a vassal state), so Monaco is a very attractive place for Juventus, who has the French chief and deputy captain.

In addition, under the fanning of Zhuang Mingge, the little butterfly, Monaco beat Nantes last season to win the Ligue 1 championship in the 1994-95 season (historically, Nantes won the Ligue 1 championship this season). Badz, Touram, Candela, Marklele, Zidane, Henry, Trezege... A group of young players burst out with surprising energy under Wenger's training, which also made Mo Fox drool all over the floor, but due to the restrictions on the quota of foreign players, they had to give up for the time being.

Later, the sudden appearance of the Boseman Act was a good opportunity, but when Moji was about to attack Monaco, he was surprised to find that all the players of this team had completed the contract renewal! And without exception, they were all long-term contracts!

It has to be said that Wenger attaches great importance to young players, much better than Ajax. Before the Boseman era came, he asked the Monaco club to sign a long-term contract with all the first-team players in the team, and his salary was quite reasonable, which was basically consistent with the status of these players.

Monaco is a poor team. Under normal circumstances, it cannot support such a huge salary expenditure, but it does not fulfill the domestic tax rate in France, but the local low tax rate in Monaco, which makes everything possible.

Don’t underestimate the tax rate issue. The level of the tax rate determines the club’s expenses to a large extent. For example, if a star with an annual salary of 10 million before tax, if he is in a Serie A team, the club will pay 5 million to pay taxes and the player will get a salary of 5 million. However, if he spends 10 million US dollars, the La Liga team only needs to pay 3.5 million in taxes, and 6.5 million belongs to the players. In this way, when the team conditions are similar, the players will of course choose a club that is more beneficial to them. On the contrary, the same is true for the club. The lower the tax rate means that you can sign players with less money under the same treatment.

Therefore, facing Monaco, who was prepared and fearless, even if Moji was cunning, he had to honestly go through formal channels to make a offer to the Monaco club. The position he wanted to introduce was naturally the two biggest weaknesses that Juventus currently existed - the defender and goalkeeper. In the Monaco club, they refer to two players, Toram and Battz.

Since Batz and Toulam's contracts will take several years to expire, Moji, who is eager to strengthen Juventus, cannot afford to play a protracted battle. Monaco is too big to sell, but Juventus cannot afford to delay. You should know that after Ferrara was robbed by Fiorentina in advance, the Zebras' defense was more brave, and the shortcomings of insufficient replacement were never improved...

In addition, Peruzzi's disadvantages when facing high altitude balls made Mo's old fox determined to introduce a better goalkeeper. Peruzzi is good, but goalkeepers with obvious advantages and disadvantages are indeed not suitable for a team like an old woman who emphasizes stability. In history, Peruzzi finally left Juventus because of this reason. However, due to the existence of Ferrara, this hidden danger did not completely break out until the 1998-99 season.

In this world, Peruzzi's series of bad performances against Fiorentina have long made Moji determined to introduce a more secure goalkeeper.

That's why Moji came to Monaco under the name of the European Cup Winners draw, otherwise the one who came here this time would be Juventus' head coach Lippi.

"How about Chairman Corleon? I heard that you have a good relationship with Monaco head coach Mr. Wenger. For the sake of you and I are both fellow countrymen, I will help me and ask him to sell me two players... Of course, I will not pay a penny for the transfer fee. If this time is done, I promise that Juventus will be friendly to Fiorentina in the future."

"Haha, I'll do my best, Manager Moji. I will talk to Arcena (Wenger), but I can't guarantee the effect." Zhuang Mingge laughed and responded to Moji's request, thinking in his heart: Will your Juventus be friendly to Fiorentina, which is also a Serie A team? What a joke?!
