Chapter 3 When the transfer is in progress
In July, the European transfer market began, and the rich families launched a fierce offensive against their favorite players.
One of the headlines of The Sun today revealed that Manchester City is ready to send Adebayor to Tottenham Hotspur for 5 million pounds. This news seems ordinary and not very eye-catching. But such a transaction may actually lead to a series of transfers and set off a wave in the market.
Manchester City is in the leading position in the competition for Arsenal's top star Van Persie.
The day after Van Persie refused to renew his contract, BBC reporter Ian McGali revealed on Twitter that Van Persie would join Manchester City within two weeks, with a transfer fee of 22 million pounds and a weekly salary of 225,000 pounds.
The Daily Mail revealed that in order to prevent the sale of two cores in August last year, which made it difficult to prepare for the new season, Arsenal may be forced to complete the deal as soon as possible. But Manchester City's front line is too complicated today. With the three main strikers, Aguero, Balotelly and Tevez, who will basically stay in the team, they must complete the cleaning before leaving room for Van Persie.
Who will be cleaned? Adebayor was the first to take the brunt.
Because the two have a bad history: in 2009, Adebayor joined Manchester City from the Arsenal, and Blue Moon paid 25 million pounds for it.
And in that season, Adebayor maliciously trampled on Van Persie on the court and had a bad relationship with Arsenal fans and Van Persie himself. Therefore, once Van Persie joins Manchester City, Adebayor will not be able to stay in the team. This season, Adebayo's loan to Arsenal's sworn enemy Tottenham Hotspur has a very eye-catching performance. He scored 17 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League and completed the "two-doubles" data. Tottenham Hotspur is very willing to keep him. If Manchester City cleans it at a low price, it will be better for Tottenham.
According to the Sun, the Daily Mail and the Guardian, this is close to completion of the transaction, with a transfer fee of 5 million pounds and 6 million pounds. Therefore, any price is far less than the actual value of Togolese.
Tottenham Hotspur directly benefited from the opening of Manchester City Supermarket and the low-priced sale of Adebayor.
Moreover, the new coach Boaz's appointment makes them need sufficient funds to rebuild the team. It will be a good deal to buy Adebayor and others at a low price.
In order to raise funds, coupled with Real Madrid and Manchester United's pursuit of Modric, it is well known that Tottenham Hotspur is likely to sell their core.
A few days ago, Chelsea also rejoined the pursuit of the Croats. According to the Daily Mail, Real Madrid is committed to winning the battle. The Galactic Battleship seems to be bound to win the Tottenham Hotspur midfielder known as the "Magic Flute". After the offer of about 35 million pounds was rejected, they hope to add Carvalho to the deal as an addition.
The 34-year-old Carvalho has lost his main position in Real Madrid. He has played for Chelsea for a long time and has rich experience in the Premier League, which improves the possibility of this transfer. If the Carvalho + cash transaction is concluded, the total amount of the transfer will be higher than the original offer.
Manchester City's cleansing will not only be Adebayor, a striker, and another striker, Dzeko, may also leave the team.
According to Goal.com, AC Milan is discussing the transfer of Dzeko with Manchester City. Before the transfer to Manchester City, AC Milan once bought Dzeko from Wolfsburg, and the Serie A giants have been thinking about Dzeko. But it was eventually won by Manchester City for a high price of 27 million pounds.
Goal.com said that Manchester City offered a price of 19 million pounds for blacks, which would also be a cheap sale compared to the purchase price.
In addition to the striker, Manchester City's selection on the back line is also repeated. Left-back Kolarov was at a disadvantage in the competition with Clichy last season. The latter got more starting opportunities, and the Serbs hope to seek a transfer. His next home may also be AC Milan. Also from Goal.com, AC Milan is seeking the transfer possibility of Manchester City left-back Kolarov, who hope to get the Manchester City left-back by renting first and then buying.
On the transfer market media "transfermarkt" website, Van Persie (£42 million), Adebayor (£22 million), Modric (£45 million), Carvalho (£2.6 million), Dzeko (£25.5 million), Kolarov ( The total value of 12.5 million pounds) is as high as 145.1 million pounds. If all these transactions come true, the total transaction volume is bound to be close to 100 million pounds. Therefore, in this, there is a huge storm brewing.
However, since the opening of Real Madrid Supermarket, Manchester City has also had the meaning of opening a supermarket.
On the other hand, Manchester United is also taking action. This time it is not a signing, but a player leaving.
Park Ji-sung officially transferred and joined the Queen's Park Rangers from Manchester United. In an interview, the South Korean star said that he was not driven away by Manchester United, but he wanted to leave.
After a seven-year career in Old Trafford, Park Ji-sung signed a two-year contract with QPR. He said, "I took the initiative to ask Manchester United to leave the team, because I received a very good invitation, and I took the initiative to tell Manchester United that I wanted to leave."
Explaining the reason why Park Ji-sung took the initiative to leave the team, he said that on the one hand, he could not play the main force in Manchester United, and the other reason was that the promise given to him by Queens Park was very attractive. This is a difficult decision, because Manchester United is an excellent club and everyone wants to play here.
"But last season, I didn't play many games. If I stay at Manchester United, I may still have a good chance to play, but Queen's Park has given me a very good proposal, and their ambition and plans are very interesting to me. So I made the decision to leave the team. If Queen's Park doesn't describe the blueprint for the future to me, I may stay at Manchester United.
Park Ji-sung joined Manchester United from Eindhoven in 2005 and has played for the Red Devils for seven seasons.
With his abundant physical fitness and active running, Park Ji-sung has won the favor of Manchester United coach Ferguson, and has made many debuts in important competitions. He is an indispensable versatile player in Manchester United's midfield.
However, in the 2011-2012 season, due to the increase in age and decline in status, Park Ji-sung's position was gradually replaced by Nani, Mata and others. With the joining of Japanese red star Shinji Kagawa, the South Koreans also completely lost their position in the team and finally chose to transfer.
It is reported that 31-year-old Park Ji-sung may replace the trouble-loving Patton as the new captain of Queen's Park, and he is also looking forward to everything after the transfer. Leaving Manchester United is a big step, but it is another challenge in my life.
Manchester United and Manchester City are taking action, and Arsenal, which is always poached, is also taking action.
In this summer's transfer market, although Arsenal has acquired two powerful strikers, when Van Persie is about to leave the team, the Gunners are still not strong enough to make a difference in the new season. In fact, the introduction of the arsenal has been in full swing.
"Sky Sports" exposed an Arsenal transfer case, which is not a successful or imminent successful acquisition, but a failed experience. Sky Sports reported that Arsenal once offered the Tunisian demon Joseph Musakoni, who had previously been invited by teams such as Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain and Lille.
But his final choice was a surprise, and the Lehvia team from Qatar signed the 90-year-old Tunisian international.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Tunisians said: "I hope I can play in Qatar. This is an opportunity for me, and I have seized it. The Lille Club once expressed interest in me and hoped to get me, but they gave less sincerity than Qatar Club. I want to improve myself in this league. Arsenal also invited me, but they were not attractive enough to me. Maybe one day I will go back to play in the big leagues in Europe.
Arsenal's pursuit of young players has not stopped. According to the French La Gazette de France and the British Sky Sports, the 17-year-old demon Niang from Ligue 1 Caen is about to try out Arsenal. Because UEFA stipulates that he can only sign an adult contract at the age of 18, Niang may be free to transfer to Arsenal.
Nion, born in December 1994, is strong and extremely fast. He is known as the next Henry and recognized as a demon in games such as FM. However, Niang's trial training of Arsenal has led to the dissatisfaction of his old club. Caen coach Patrice Garland publicly believes that it is incorrect for Niang to choose to try out Arsenal: "I made it clear to him that he has talent and potential to do a career. But is he doing the right thing now? No, I don't think so."
In terms of defense, the partners of Vermalen and Koscielny have become tacit and stable. Koscielny's contract ends in 2014, that is to say, after the 2012-13 season, Koscielny will have only one year of contract.
In order to prevent the tragedy of Nasri, Van Persie and other one-year contracts from reappearing, Arsenal must make plans as soon as possible.
According to the French newspaper Le Team, Arsenal is ready to renew a long-term contract with the French international, and Arsenal may offer a five-year contract ending in 2017.
According to previous media reports, Koscielny's current weekly salary is only 20,000 pounds. If the contract is renewed, the salary is bound to increase significantly. It is rare for Arsenal to provide such a long contract directly. At the end of the contract, Koscielny was nearly 32 years old. It can be said that this contract almost locks in the golden period of the French Iron Guard's career, and he may even retire at Arsenal.
While renewing the contract as the backbone of defense, Arsenal has not forgotten to find a successor. According to Sky Sports, Arsenal is quoting the Egyptian international Milo (full name Islam Ramadan). At present, the post-90s Egyptian international is playing for Haras El Khedud in the domestic league, and he will represent Egypt. The team will participate in the upcoming London Olympics.
Arsenal also hopes to examine him at the Olympic Games. According to Sky Sports, Lyon, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon are also very interested in the 21-year-old Egyptian defender, and the two Portuguese teams are currently leading the purchase.
In terms of midfield, Arsenal seems to have sufficient staff. But if you want to further develop Alexander Song's offensive talent, you need a defensive midfielder. Because Blackburn has been relegated, the team's strong French midfielder Enzongzi may be discounted at a low price, and Arsenal and Chelsea have joined the competition for him. According to The Sun, Enzongqi's transfer value is about 5 million pounds.
Last season, Wilshere did not play for a year due to injury, but there was still an off-court disturbance. The Sun revealed that UEFA had investigated his Twitter account in December. In the match between Arsenal and Olympiacos in the Champions League, Flinpan's goal odds were 150/1. Wilshere said in his Twitter that he would "be bet £10 for this" and continued to make fun of his good friend Flinpang on Twitter. UEFA officials have issued a warning statement to him that he may be fined or even banned.
The transfer market is very lively. Manchester United took advantage of the league break, and the money did not fall behind.
On July 17, 2012, DHL and Manchester United reached an intention to cooperate and will hold tour events in South Africa, China, Norway, Sweden and Germany in July and August.

The business match seems to be well arranged, but just when Manchester United arrived in South Africa to prepare for the game, Arsenal released a message that Manchester United wanted Van Persimon!
Regarding Van Persie's transfer, it has now become a soap opera in the Premier League. Mancini's Manchester City Legion has positioned the Dutch Flying Man as the number one target in the transfer market this summer, while Manchester United Ancelotti used Ferguson's relationship to let the Lord reveal it to his close friends in the football circle. As for Van Persie's "aspiration to win", as for the Wenger who has cultivated and built Van Persie, he is still making the last effort to retain Van Persie.
However, the headlines from today's The Sun revealed that Arsenal professor Wenger has issued an ultimatum to Van Persie and will make a final decision on Van Persie's departure and stay today in British local time, and finalize whether Van Persie will be included in the Gunners's list for the warm-up Asian Tour this summer.
However, even if Arsenal's official website finally made the decision to sell Van Persie, there is also a premise that it will never be sold to Manchester United!
The Sun confirmed that news from Italy yesterday, European local time, revealed that Arsenal officials have rejected Manchester United's offer to Van Persie, because Wenger has stated that he will never sell the team's number one star to Manchester United, the top player in the Premier League, who has been competing with him for 16 years. !
In addition, The Sun also revealed that although Van Persie, who has been reluctant to renew his contract, has only one year left in his contract with Arsenal, the senior management of the Gunners' transfer price for their top scorer is a sky-high price of 30 million pounds, which is already higher than the 20 million British Manchester United club against Van Persie. The quotation of the pound and the highest price (also 20 million pounds) that Manchester City can afford Van Persie.
