Chapter 193 Go to Barcelona to watch the final
Alkmaar held a grand celebration for the Dutch Cup.
When the league won the championship, because I had to prepare for the Dutch Cup, I didn't celebrate. Now that the double championship is in hand, the players have no thoughts. The players' fans and the club's personnel rode a float around Amsterdam and Alkmaar twice, and returned to the City Hall Square. The carnival lasted for another day. Almost all Alkmaar residents have joined the carnival, and the beer in Alkmaar's bar is in a hurry and has to be transported to the wine outside.
After the celebration, Jiang Mu gave the players a holiday and received both fame and fortune. The players who got a large bonus returned to China for a happy holiday, but Jiang Mu was not so relaxed. For the players, they didn't have to worry about anything at the end of the season. The agent worried about the renewal of the contract, and they could rest assured to go on vacation. But for coaches, the summer transfer period is the preparation period for next season. If they are not fully prepared now, they must be prepared for failure next season.
Although Jiang Mu doesn't need to intervene in the transfer, Jiang Mu is really worried, because he can't buy the person he wants, and the unlucky is himself. Fans and the media don't care what your reason is. Winning is winning, losing is losing, winning is a good coach, magic coach, losing you are stupid, no matter what your reason is. If you keep losing, the coach is the best scapegoat.
Jiang Mu did not return to China after the holiday. He just bought some gifts for Zhao Guangming to send to his relatives and friends in China. He had to complete an important transfer before he could go back to China for a holiday.
After getting a bonus of more than 400,000 guilders, Jiang Mu first threw 30,000 guilders to buy a football lottery ticket. The Champions League final has not yet started, but the momentum has been boiling. The outside world is unanimously optimistic about the powerful Bayern Munich, and Jiang Mu knows that Manchester United has performed a miracle at the last moment. He scored two goals in stoppage time and reversed. Bayern won the championship and won the first three championships in the five major leagues. Although Jiang Mu didn't know whether history would change because of his arrival, he did not hesitate to buy Manchester United to win the championship.
The remaining Qian Jiangmu also has arrangements. 300,000 guilders are used to buy houses and cars. Although the bus and railways in the Netherlands are very developed, sometimes it is necessary to have your own car when going out for an outing or traveling to other countries.
Jiang Mu doesn't plan to buy any good car. A German golf car is enough, and the rest is enough for him to buy a two-story villa in the suburbs of Alkmaar or Amsterdam. The rent here has been paid for two years, and Jiang Mu plans to give it to Zhao Guangming.
Although Jiang Mu is proficient in Dutch, he is not clear about the Dutch laws and regulations. The house and car are entrusted to Schelinger. Jiang Mu has many friends in the Netherlands, but only Sheringer is trustworthy and capable in this matter.
After the end of the league, the contract renewal work has been carried out in an orderly manner. After the Dutch Cup final, there are few players left who have not renewed their contracts. The teams that do not plan to renew their contracts have begun to look for transfers. The players who plan to renew their contracts are still discussing with the club on annual salary and other issues.
Alkmaar will play in the Champions League next season. It must be very difficult for the existing players to play the Champions League. The main force is young, the strength is not enough, and the level of substitutes is even worse. If Jiang Mu wants to make achievements in the Champions League next season, he must add some experienced and level players. Jiang Mu has not returned to China. In order to inspect the players.
If the new stadium is not built, Alkmaar will have plenty of money, and he doesn't have to worry too much about Jiang Mu. He proposed to introduce players, and the club will pay for it. But now Alkmaar's funds are tight. In order to get the right player, Jiang Mu must go out in person.
Now Alkmaar urgently needs to add a midfielder who can organize a goal. When Altidore leaves, someone must be on top. In fact, even if Altidore doesn't leave, Jiang Mu still wants to buy people. After all, Altidore comes from the Eerste Divisie. There is no problem with his level to play the A, and sometimes he is very good. Cai, but in the Champions League, which one is not a national football player, which one is not a national league or a world-renowned player. Artidol is the core of the midfield, that is, playing in the group stage, and I'm afraid he will be unable to do it in the knockout stage. Even if you are divided into a bad group, the hope of qualifying is very small.
In this position, Jiang Mu naturally wants Xiao Luo. Although Xiao Luo is still a little green and his ability to decide the game is far less than Da Luo and Qi Dan, he is cheap and has great potential. He is the first player to buy now.
In addition to the core position of the organization, the left-back position also needs to be replenished. Suleiman's strength is also good, but the attack is strong and the defense is weak. In the Champions League, which focuses on defense, Suleiman's shortcoming is likely to be exploited by the opponent. A little breakthrough may cause the overall defeat, even if the back can provide protection. Suleiman also needs at least a suitable substitute.
In addition to these two key positions and the goalkeeper position, other positions also need to be supplemented, but does that depends on Jiang Mu's abundant funds? Adequate, naturally it is to buy more people, the more the better. If the funds are insufficient, the players who have added these two positions can also compete with the opponents in the group stage.
Ronaldinho's transfer was full of twists and turns. Last season's Ronaldinho was still very young and famous. Now with Ronaldinho being summoned to the national team by Brazilian head coach Scolari, other clubs also took a fancy to Ronaldinho's genius and began to offer Gremio, Ronaldo Diño's brother Assis saw that his brother was so favored, his appetite also increased, and he forgot the original promise to Jiang Mu.
Although the original Assis was greedy for money, he sacrificed a lot for his family, which made Jiang Mu quite respect. Now Assis really makes Jiang Mu a little annoying. He is so greedy. No wonder Xiao Luo, who will be involved in his previous life, suddenly fell into the trough at the peak and finally fell depressed.
However, it is not the time to be angry. Considering the core interests of the team, the introduction of Ronaldinho is the best investment at this moment. Jiang Mu, a utilitarian, easily put aside his personal hobby and continued to focus on Ronaldinho's transfer.
In the position of left-back, it turned out that Jiang Mu looked up to the German Zig. After Zig moved from Bayern to AC Milan, he has been depressed. AC Milan regretted it very much and repeatedly revealed the idea of selling Zig, but now it seems that Zig's price is no longer what Alkmaar can buy. Unless between Zig and Ronaldinho, Jiang Mu only chooses one.
Judging from Alkmaar's current situation, Alkmaar needs Ronaldinho more than a full-back, so Jiang Mu gave up Zig in pain. Now there are two left-back players circled by Jiang Mu, one is Argentine Peña and the other is in the Norwegian cannon. Se, these two people can not only help the team defensively, but their powerful volley may also become the team's secret weapon.
The most important thing is that they are not well-known, and the price is cheap. People say that there are no good goods, but in the eyes of reborn people like Jiang Mu, there are cheap treasures everywhere, but they still need time to polish them to shine brightly.
The UEFA Champions League final was held five days after the Dutch Cup final. In order to have a good relationship with the Luo brothers, Jiang Mu invited the Assis brothers to watch the game in Europe in a private name. Jiang Mu covered all the expenses of the Luo brothers. Of course, this money is paid by the club. Jiang Mu just took care of the feelings of the media and the Luo brothers.
Assis is a famous person who makes money at a cheap price. Jiang Mu called and invited him to Barcelona, Spain, to watch the Champions League final. Assis pretended to tell Jiang Mu that he wanted to discuss it with his family. An hour later, he readily replied to Jiang Mu and would bring his brother Ronaldinho to Barcelona to watch the game. .
Two days before the Champions League final, Assis and Ronaldinho came to the Netherlands. Jiang Mu and Shringer drove Bentley to take the two brothers to Dirk's seaside villa.
Ronaldinho came to Europe for the first time. He came to the mansion in a luxury car. Ronaldinho's eyes were not enough, and every place made him curious and envious.
His brother Assis was still calm. He held Jiang Mu's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Coach Jiang and Miss Sherringia. The friendship between you two is engraved in the hearts of the Assis family."
Jiang Mu took Assis's arm with a smile and said, "Assis, what you said is too outrageous. We don't know each other for a day or two. Whether the transfer is successful or not, your family is my friend."
Sherinja looked at Jiang Mu and Assis talking politely. She stood at the door and said, "Sit inside quickly. You talk about the past while drinking tea.
Of course, Jiang Mu and Assis have nothing to talk about. After talking about some interesting things in Brazil last Christmas in the living room, Jiang Mu drove with the Assis brothers to the Sea Palace in Amsterdam for dinner. After dinner, he flew directly to Barcelona, Spain.
The game will start one day, but Barcelona, a famous city of culture and art, has been filled with the atmosphere of football. The large posters of superstars such as Sumer, Keane, Mateus and Basler, the endless flow of Bayern and Manchester United fans, and the team songs of Bayern and Manchester United that ring from time to time can be seen everywhere in the city. Things related to the Champions League.
Before this game, Manchester United and Bayern have played twice in the group stage, one is 2:2 and the other is 1:1. There is no winner. At the end of a season, Manchester United has completed the domestic league and cup double championships, and Bayern won the league championship three rounds ahead of schedule, and also entered the German held two weeks later. The final of the National Cup. The two teams represent the highest level of European clubs, and their goals are the "three crowns" of the highest honor in European football. Before that, all three European Triple Crowns won the European Cup before the reorganization of the Champions League, and no team from the five major European leagues has ever achieved this feat.
This particularity also makes the atmosphere of the game more lively and tense.
