Chapter 353 End of Summer Transfer

As expected by Li Tongfan, Wenger resolutely refused to sell Newcastle's restless player Lars Diarra.

With the wisdom and foresight of the professor, he naturally knows how dangerous it is to give the "new Maclele" to the madman Li. Last season, Newcastle's ten-game winning streak in the final stage was enough to scare the BIG4 members. If the crazy Li is allowed to build an ideal team according to his own wishes, it is estimated that the members of BIG4 will become the role of accompanying the prince to study in the future!

So, although Wenger can't stop other teams from selling players to madman Lee, since Lars Diarra is at Arsenal, he has the final say. Therefore, the French did not hesitate to reject Newcastle's offer of £6 million, but agreed to another Premier League team Portsmouth's offer of £4.5 million... At this point, the tug-of-war about the "New Macclelet" transfer for no more than a week came to an end. Although Las Diarra himself is more inclined to join the madman Lee's Newcastle, this time he can't blackmail Wenger like the Blues about five months ago, because it is different from his contract with Chelsea at that time of only seven months. His contract with Arsenal Arsenal still has three years to expire... But after this The relationship between Lars and Wenger is completely broken!

Since Ras Diarra was hopeless, Li Tongfan had to turn his eyes fiercely to Fernando Gago!

...July 26th.

Madrid, Spain.

At noon, the sun is hot!

Bang! Bang!! ! Bang!!! !

Gago, who cut off his long hair, did not use his summer vacation time to go to the beach hotel to enjoy a good life like his teammates, but stayed alone in the training base of Madrid Sports City for training... Under the sun, the dream teenager was sweating... Two years ago, when he was against Redo II The reputation and expectations of South American football left the Pampas grassland with my compatriot Higuain to take the Bernabeu and join Real Madrid. Originally, I thought that I would really play in the world in the Bernabeu like my idol Redondo, but who knew that except for the first season, I got a lot of opportunities to play under the account of the madman Li. In addition, the next situation took a sharp turn... Capello thought that his defense was not strong enough, and once pressed him firmly on the bench. The famous Italian coach finally left Bernabeu, but the new German coach Schuster seemed to have the same idea. There were only a few three or four players in the first team of Real Madrid. He didn't receive a call from the new coach Schuster, and Gago was one of them... What an obvious signal!

At this moment, although he has been staying at the Madrid Sports City Training Base to practice hard, Gago was at a loss at this time... After several physical exercises with the ball around the obstacle and no ball, Gago came to the side of the court and was about to drink water. Suddenly... The mobile phone in the luggage rang and took out his mobile phone. Look, a familiar and strange name appeared in front of me... on July 27th.

Newcastle's official website once again posted a quote that made all Magpie fans happy:

"...Real Madrid Argentina's midfielder Fernando Gago will transfer to Newcastle for 8.5 million euros and sign a four-year weekly salary of 70,000 pounds..."

This news finally caused a shock in the British media.

Because Gago is different from the "old, weak, sick and disabled" such as Ronaldo Marcello, who has not proved himself in the five major leagues before. Although Argentina's midfield performance in Real Madrid did not meet the height expected by the world, his own strength is still first-class, and he originally tried to be strong. The old woman Juventus, who rose again, was hotly pursuing Argentina's back. She didn't expect to kill Newcastle, the "Cheng Yaojin" halfway and rob the almost prey of the Bianconeri... In fact, even Li Tongfan, the "behind-the-scenes master" of Juventus, did not expect that Gago's transfer would be so smooth. Before that, Lao Li was worried that Gago was unwilling to leave Bernabeu, where the stars were shining luxurious and luxurious. Who knew that he hadn't finished a few words after a phone call, Gago himself turned to the guest and put forward the idea of joining Newcastle... Unexpected surprise!

Next, the conversation with Florentino went much smoother.

The relationship between the sullen man and Fu Xiaoxiong is in the "honeymoon period", and soon signed a transfer contract of 850 euros with a down payment of 2 million euros and the remaining 6.5 million yuan in installments in 24 months... From the specific work of Lao Li to the formal transfer, this Serie A giant Juventus has not been settled for more than a month. It seems extremely difficult to transfer was won by the madman Li in just 24 hours... This time, anyone who knows the inside story of the transfer can't help lamenting the madman Li's huge energy and player appeal, while the fans of other clubs in the Premier League can only secretly complain in their hearts that they don't have a star. The head coach of the class!

... After introducing Gago with lightning speed, Li Tongfan has bought no less than 10 new players this season, but Newcastle's signing work is not over.

... July 28th.

St. James Park Stadium.

Head coach's office.

"... The sale of players at the end of last season brought a total of 64 million pounds of transfer income to Magpie, while it only cost 38 million pounds to introduce Ronaldo, Podolski and others. Even if the expenses of Gago and others introduced in July are deducted, the remaining transfer funds plus the 20 million pounds of the old Jazz John Hall, Lao Li still has at least 28 million pounds of transfer funds..."

On the sofa, the transfer supervisor Torothy Tang is settling accounts for Lao Li.

"... Er, so, are we rich now? Is there so much left? Li Tongfan's eyes widened, and his flushed face was full of incredible: "Tang, are you wrong? Do we really have so much money?"

"It's definitely not wrong!"

[Dog-headed jun] Tolosi Tang, the transfer supervisor of Magpie, pointed to the gray-haired old man sitting next to him and affirmed: "I think it's better to ask Mr. David Stefaner, the financial director, to explain it to you..."

So, the old man Stefanna, an old man with an old face, took out a thick heap of information, took out a reading glasses from the front pocket of the suit and slowly put them on. Then he cleared his throat and began to report:

"Cough... Li, the funds we have gained from the transfer market through the sale of players during this period of time are... Premier League tickets and broadcast share... In addition, because of your performance in the European Cup by you and Michael, the sales of the team's jerseys and souvenirs are very optimistic. So far, the total is... The tickets for the 08-09 season are sold out... Er, by the way, if possible, it is recommended that the club consider expanding the stadium! ...And you have spent 58 million pounds on signing... After two deductions, plus Sir John Hall's investment, there are still 5,000 pounds left on the club's books..."

50 million pounds?

Thinking about the watery demons recommended by the FM2009 system, Lao Li subconsciously asked, "So, do we still have money to buy people?"

"In theory, it's true, but I think it's better to have more than 30 million pounds of liquidity in the club's account. You know, the player's salary is also a big burden for the club..." Stefaner, the treasurer, gave his advice with a blank face.

Li Tongfan nodded to express his understanding that Newcastle's salary structure has indeed risen to a big level after the introduction of Ronaldo, Gago and Po Dorski, and the renewal of the contracts of Michael Owen, Taylor and Alan Smith and other veteran players has also come to the agenda... Speaking of which, I still have less than 20 million pounds of transfer funds to spend. However, even so, it has greatly exceeded Li Tongfan's expectations. Originally, Lao Li thought that he had been a poor man for a long time!

Think about Newcastle's current lineup, since there are still a lot of transfer fees, the previous plan has to be changed... Li Tongfan has a plan in his heart!

... July 31st.

The Times: "Madman Lee continues to burn money. 10 million euros introduced Andre Arshavin, the 27-year-old core player of the Zenit team in St. Petersburg. This is the second player bought by Madman Li from Eastern Europe after Irkov. The value of 10 million yuan has not been proven in the five major leagues. For his own players, it is already a sky-high price..."

August 3rd.

The Sun: "...Another young player we have never heard of was brought to Newcastle by madman Lee, and 20-year-old Stuttgart midfielder Sami Hedilla joined Magpie for 5.5 million euros. According to our reporter Dekla, 20-year-old Khedira was promoted from the Stuttgart youth team last season and scored 1 goal for Stuttgart in 24 games in the Bundesliga in the 07-08 season... Such data is not good in the Bundesliga..."

... This summer, the number and speed of Li Tongfan's signings made the head coaches of other teams in the Premier League ashamed!

However, while the media and fans across the British Isles were still speculating who the next "B Scouts" member to appear at St. James's Park, the official website of Newcastle Club finally appeared on the official website of the Newcastle Club - "... The club has introduced enough players to deal with the long time. From today on, Newcastle's signings officially ended from today! In the 08-09 season, Newcastle will shock everyone... You know, our goal is not just the League Cup..."

Challenge!

** Naked challenge!

Crazy Li's words are obviously challenging the traditional top four.

In the Premier League, in addition to Newcastle, which is worth looking forward to, Thai Prime Minister Thaksin has invested a lot of money this season. For the "Blue Moon" Manchester City team, he has successively introduced a large number of powerful players such as Knight Phillips from Chelsea and Vicente Kompani from Real Madrid... The heroes rise together and chaos. The bureau is now available!

Judging from the transfer investment alone, the upcoming 08-09 season will be the most promising season to break the situation of Chelsea, the Red Devils Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal Arsenal!

... After closing Newcastle's transfer window, the player's vacation is coming to an end, and Li Tongfan will soon be involved in the warm-up match and the team's run-in before the start of the season!

However, before that, Lao Li must go back to China.

This summer, Li Tongfan was too busy to go back to visit his parents, and according to the business activity plan arranged by Tolosi Tang, there are some domestic endorsement activities waiting for Lao Li to fulfill... In addition, Lao Li also wants to meet someone!

A person she has missed for a whole year, six months, twenty-three days and eighteen hours!

Lao Li wants to know what happened during this period!
