I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 310: Breaking the million mark again! Crazy Manchester United! Super black shop! Manchester City is going to the sky! [Subscribe]

The 2014 European summer transfers are a complete mess!
Or should we say, all the teams were going crazy!

In this summer's transfer market, the first transfer that surprised Yang Cheng was Aurier from Nice in Ligue 1.

The Ivory Coast international had been linked with Paris Saint-Germain long before the World Cup.

Even Yang Cheng and Nice felt that Paris Saint-Germain had basically monopolized Nice's two full-backs.

That is, Aurier and Kurzawa.

The only obstacle at the time was the transfer fee.

The Bayswater Chinese are demanding a transfer fee of 2500 million euros.

But Paris Saint-Germain is only willing to pay 1500 million euros at most for Aurier.

The two sides were at a stalemate, so they just kept talking.

But what no one expected was that in the World Cup, Aurier played for the Ivory Coast national team and performed very well.

Côte d'Ivoire defeated Japan 2-1 in its World Cup debut.

Aurier contributed 2 assists.

This allowed Côte d'Ivoire's right side to shine in the World Cup.

In the French Ligue 6 last season, Aurier contributed 6 goals and assists, becoming the most active player on the right side of Nice.

After the group stage, although Côte d'Ivoire failed to qualify and was eliminated early, Aurier's performance has been recognized by the outside world and European teams have heard the news.

It was just that the World Cup was in full swing at the time and no one noticed it.

The first to make an offer for Aurier was Arsenal.

The Gunners directly met Nice's requirements and offered 2500 million euros.

Wenger is very interested in Aurier and wants to bring him to the Premier League to support the Gunners' right side.

Although Arsenal already has Lichtsteiner, Sagna is already 32 years old and Wenger wants to use Aurier to strengthen the team's bench depth.

Also in Wenger's sight is French international De Buchy, who plays for Newcastle.

Although Debishi is cheaper, he is also older, 29 years old.

Aurier is only 22 years old, but his strength is already quite good.

Arsenal's sudden intervention caused a sudden change in the transfer that Paris Saint-Germain was determined to obtain.

Who is Martin Harrison, CEO of Nice?

He is hailed by many French media as the most ruthless professional manager after Aulas.

He did not immediately agree to Arsenal's offer, but instead took a cold approach and released the news to the outside world at the same time.

2500 million euros, that was the price before the World Cup.

You can’t buy Aurier at this price now.

As expected, Paris Saint-Germain followed up and raised its offer to 2800 million euros, surpassing Arsenal.

This made Wenger hesitate.

After all, the Gunners still have Lichtsteiner, so there is no need to pay such a high transfer fee for Aurier.

But unexpectedly, the next moment, Manchester City made an offer of 3000 million euros.

Blue Moon suddenly joins the battle!

This was something no one expected, including Martin Harrison of Nice.

Why did Blue Moon take a fancy to Aurier?
According to the Manchester Evening News, their pursuit of Daniel Alves by Barcelona was rejected.

This is the best right back in Guardiola's mind.

Later, he approached Bayern Munich to buy Lahm, but was also rejected.

Currently, Manchester City has two right-backs. Zabaleta was born in January 85 and will be 1 years old soon.

Mike Richards is a local player, but his style is not what Guardiola appreciates at all, and his skills do not meet the requirements, so he was abandoned by Guardiola early on.

In this case, introducing a high-level right-back has become an urgent option for Manchester City.

Manchester City's consistent transfer style is to lie dormant quietly, wait for the opportunity, and strike hard!
There's nothing I can do, after all he's rich.
Paris Saint-Germain is also a wealthy team and of course was unwilling to be outdone. They immediately made another offer of 3200 million euros.

But unexpectedly, Manchester City directly added another 300 million, bringing the total to 3500 million euros, and directly defeated Paris Saint-Germain!
Not only that, Blue Moon is also keeping an eye on Kurzawa.

Manchester City only has Leighton Baines as a trustworthy player on the left side.

But the Blue Moon is most concerned about Dortmund winger Reus.

The winger has also attracted interest from Manchester United and Chelsea.

Paris Saint-Germain took this opportunity to decisively raise the price, agreed to Nice's asking price, and signed Kurzawa for 3000 million euros.

The transfer of Nice's two full-backs surprised Yang Cheng.

At the same time, it also surprised the European football world.

You know, before the World Cup, Aurier's transfer valuation was only 1500 million euros, and Kurzawa's was about the same.

As a result, the two players were sold for a full 6500 million euros, which doubled.

……

The transfers of Aurier and Kurzawa did not attract much attention from fans amid the wave of the World Cup.

After all, these two players are not big-name stars.

But then, Chelsea's series of transfer operations surprised everyone.

Chelsea subsequently announced several major transfers.

The Blues first signed center forward Diego Costa from Atletico Madrid for a transfer fee of 5000 million pounds.

The deal was seen as a good bargain.

The main reason is that Diego Costa performed poorly in the World Cup and was selected into the most disappointing team.

Of course, you can't blame him.

The entire Spanish team performed poorly.

Later, Juan Cuadrado was signed from Serie A's Fiorentina for £3000 million.

Signed Felipe Luis from Atletico Madrid for £2000 million.

Also a left-back, the main reason why Felipe Luis was only sold for 2000 million pounds is his age of 29.

Plus the French center forward Remy who was brought in for £1500 million.

Chelsea invested £1.15 million in the transfer market!
Abramovich has suffered a lot.

In order to raise funds, Chelsea sold Lukaku to Everton for £4000 million.

In addition, a number of redundant players including Demba Ba, Lampard and Ashley Cole were cleared out of the team.

The fact that Everton was able to spend 4000 million pounds to sign Lukaku shows how strong the purchasing power of Premier League teams is now.

Chelsea took over Atletico Madrid's center forward and left back in one go, and its overall strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

Plus Khedira who joined during the winter break.

In the new season, Mourinho's team is strong and ambitious!
……

After Arsenal missed out on Aurier, Wenger immediately signed Debuchy for £1500 million.

But at the same time, the Gunners also sold central defender Thomas Vermaelen to Barcelona for £2000 million.

The Belgian center back was often troubled by injuries during his time at Arsenal, which resulted in his performance being unstable.

But his technical style is more in line with Barcelona's requirements.

Under Barcelona's poaching, Arsenal had to let him go.

Another player who left due to injury was 27-year-old Ukrainian center back Ziglinskiy.

After missing half a year due to injury last season, he completely lost his position in the team.

Now, the Gunners have sent him back to Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine for a transfer fee of £1500 million.

After sending away two central defenders in a row, the Gunners signed central defender Mustafi from Ligue 3500 Nice for £ million.

The player left Everton in January 2012 for a transfer fee of 1 euros.

Just a year and a half later, he returned to the Premier League for a sky-high price of 3500 million pounds, and joined Arsenal.

It can be said that he returned home in glory!

The main reason is that in the French Ligue 1 last season, under the catalysis of Jose Fonte, the central defender incubator, Mustafi showed great strength and his abilities were fully released.

Wenger also recognized it!
This transfer price was already considered high, but Yang Cheng still felt quite regretful about it.

Mustafi was excluded from the squad by Löw at the last minute before the World Cup.

If he plays for Germany in the World Cup, even if he just wins one, his value will go up a little bit.

In addition, the Gunners also signed defender Chambers from Southampton for a transfer fee of 2000 million pounds.

……

As the arms race in the Premier League unfolds, Liverpool is also not idle.

The Reds first signed Adam Lallana from Southampton for £3500 million.

The transfer came as a shock to everyone.

Next, winger Markovic was signed from Benfica for £2500 million.

Signed centre-back Lovren from Southampton for £3000 million.

Signed Moreno from La Liga side Sevilla for £2000 million.

Signed Emre Can from Bundesliga side Leverkusen for £1500 million.

Ricky Lambert was then signed from Southampton for £1000 million.

The Reds qualified for the Champions League last season and are ambitious this summer, determined to maintain that qualification while also hoping to go one step further in terms of results.

The Saudi consortium is not inferior in financial resources and is equally generous in its investment.

Among them, Lambert's return to Liverpool caused an uproar in the British media.

The former Bayswater Chinese player originally came from Liverpool's youth training, but unfortunately, he was not able to stay with the Reds.

He even became an amateur player for a time.

It was not until he was spotted by Yang Cheng and brought to Bayswater Chinese that he was gradually kicked out.

Now, Lambert has performed well in Southampton and has returned to Liverpool.

When interviewed by media reporters, Lambert repeatedly emphasized that he was very grateful to the Chinese people in Bayswater and to Yang Cheng for his guidance and trust in him.

The transfer fee for this transfer was not high and the player was not well-known, but it caused a huge response in the UK, especially the evaluation of the Chinese in Bayswater.

The background is the England national team's crushing defeat in the World Cup in Brazil.

In 3 games, no wins, 1 draw and 2 losses.

Such a report card is totally inconsistent with the prosperity of the Premier League.

As the authoritative Times put it.

England has done a very poor job in youth training in recent years.

The Chinese in Bayswater can be said to be one of the few bright spots.

In fact, this team also supports the current England national teams of all ages and has always been a major player in the national team.

Lambert's experience is just one of many stories about the Chinese in Bayswater.

"We need more and more teams like Bayswater Chinese, committed to youth training and cultivating players, to help England return to the top of the world football stage!"

The Sun also believes that more and more local English fans believe that Bayswater Chinese talents are the future of English football.

Because this team, from the first team to the youth team, gathers many young talents!
The British BBC TV station even recorded a special program to report in detail on the youth training system of the Chinese in Bayswater, and interviewed technical director Dan Ashworth, youth training director Matt Crocker and others.

In this program, the BBC not only introduced the youth training achievements made by Bayswater Chinese in the past few years, but also introduced the investment of this top team in youth training that has lasted for more than ten years.

This is an investment worth every penny!

"Many people say that the Chinese in Bayswater are stingy and cheap in the transfer market."

“But in fact, when it comes to youth training, various training facilities and technology research and development, the Chinese in Bayswater are very generous.”

The BBC introduced the Bayswater Chinese youth players and their proportion in England's national teams at all levels.

At most, even close to half.

This is simply outrageous!
Dan Ashworth and Matt Crocker both made a prediction.

"We are very confident that the team's youth training will usher in a blowout in five years, and we also have reason to believe that England will benefit greatly from it in five years!"

"By then, our team will help England return to the top of the world!"

Dan Ashworth's powerful remarks shocked the whole of Britain.

If there is any team in the Premier League that has such influence, it used to be Manchester United or Liverpool, but now, it’s only the Bayswater Chinese!

In the UK, more and more fans are following Bayswater Chinese.

Especially after watching this BBC program, they are more aware of the importance of the Chinese in Bayswater to English football!
……

The World Cup has finally come to an end!

But the battle for star players is still in full swing.

The hottest player in the transfer market is undoubtedly Paul Pogba from Bayswater Chinese.

The French midfielder shined in the World Cup and became the undisputed core of France's midfield, helping the Gallic team reach the World Cup final and win the runner-up, unfortunately losing to Germany.

But this final was also seen by many fans as Pogba's failed challenge to Toni Kroos!

The reason is that the German team defeated France and won the championship thanks to Toni Kroos's last-minute goal.

Although he lost this "competition", Paul Pogba's age and talent are obvious.

The French midfielder has successfully attracted the attention of many top teams including Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, Liverpool and others, and has also caused a lot of speculation.

Agent Mino Raiola has been active in the media, making it clear that the player has not yet made a decision about his future.

What this means is that all interested teams should come quickly!
Let’s talk!
Almost everyone knows that Paul Pogba, whose market value has soared to 8000 million euros after the World Cup, will become the summer transfer king once he transfers!

Who will capture this superstar?

But no one expected that it was not Paul Pogba who would be the first to start the competition in the transfer market.

It’s Dortmund’s little rocket who missed the Brazil World Cup due to injury, Marco Reus!

It's unlucky to say the least.

Reus was injured in the last warm-up match before the World Cup, with a torn ligament, and will be out for 2 months.

This made him miss a World Cup title!

But as the best player in the Bundesliga last season, he started 26 games, came on as a substitute 4 times, scored 16 goals, assisted 13 goals, and averaged 2.7 dribbles per game.

Marco Reus won the title of Bundesliga's best player for the second time in three years. Even though he failed to participate in the World Cup, he still won everyone's recognition.

When Van Gaal first took office at Manchester United, the first signing he made was Reus.

Manchester United gave Van Gaal a transfer budget of £2 million, allowing him to build his squad freely.

In the transfer list listed by Van Gaal, Reus and Hummels are both from Dortmund.

This shows how much Van Gaal values ​​Reus.

Manchester United's spending was also quite generous.

The first offer was directly 5000 million pounds, which was higher than Reus's market valuation.

5000 million pounds, or 6000 million euros.

With such an offer in front of Dortmund, it is hard for the Hornets to not be tempted.

It is well known throughout the world that Bundesliga players are generally undervalued.

Given the current situation of the Hornets, after selling Reus and getting the money, there are so many things the team can do.

Besides, Dortmund can't beat Bayern in the Bundesliga anyway.

The Bundesliga media revealed that when Dortmund bought out Reus from Borussia Mönchengladbach in exchange for a buyout clause, there was a clause in the contract between the two parties.

If Dortmund fails to win a major title, such as the league or the Champions League, for three consecutive seasons, then Dortmund will have to accept offers from other teams.

German media revealed that this clause was more of a backdoor for joining Bayern.

But unexpectedly, the one that came knocking on the door was Manchester United.

What about Bayern?

Although the Bundesliga giants are wealthy, they have always been stingy in their investment in the transfer market.

Bidding for Manchester United?
This is clearly not in line with Bayern's style.

They prefer to poach players in the same way as Gotze.

It’s not that Reus is too expensive to buy, but that a free transfer is more cost-effective!
On the contrary, Reus himself was worried about joining Manchester United.

The reason is that Manchester United can’t play in the Champions League!
But Dortmund seriously considered Manchester United's offer.

Just when Manchester United felt that they had already secured victory and all the media and fans believed that Reus was bound to join Manchester United, Manchester City, which had been keeping silent all along, suddenly moved.

The Premier League champion spent 6500 million euros in one go!
Guardiola openly "seduced" Reus in the media.

"Royce is an incredible player, he is the player I have always dreamed of playing for!"

"At the same time, he will become an important piece of the puzzle in Manchester City's lineup!"

Public opinion completely exploded!

My mother!

Manchester City is going to heaven!

The combination of Reus, Aguero and Messi is determined to conquer the Premier League and then the Champions League!
Sky Sports even published this news on the front page.

"The little rocket is about to land at Etihad, Guardiola is aiming for the Champions League title!"

Jonathan Wilson, a famous English football expert, even stated in his column that Guardiola has always wanted David Silva to return to midfield and partner with Verratti.

Now, with Xabi Alonso joining, Manchester City's midfield is full of talent.

If Reus is introduced, Manchester City will have an extra superstar on the left wing, which will inevitably make Manchester City's overall strength improve by leaps and bounds.

This can greatly relieve Messi's pressure!

Public opinion was uproar.

This immediately made Dortmund realize that the opportunity had come!

Manchester United also felt threatened and immediately raised its offer to 7000 million euros!
Manchester United CEO Ed Woodward publicly stated in the media, "We are determined to get Reus!"

"All Manchester United fans can look forward to seeing Reus flying at Old Trafford in the new season!"

But what Ed Woodward never expected was that Manchester City's counterattack would be so brutal.

The Blue Moon did not engage in a war of words, but instead responded directly with an offer of 7500 million euros.

It was like a slap in the face for Ed Woodward.

Manchester United's CEO immediately convened a team meeting and worked intensively to redraft the offer.

In the end, the Red Devils made an offer of 7800 million euros.

But everyone can see that Manchester United is actually no longer able to do it.

Manchester United, who claim to have a transfer budget of £2 million, are also pursuing Bayswater Chinese player Paul Pogba.

Previously, they signed Argentine defender Rojo from Sporting Lisbon for £2000 million.

Paid the release clause for Athletic Bilbao midfielder Ander Herrera for £2850 million.

This forces Manchester United to be very cautious.

But Manchester City has no such concerns.

As soon as the Blue Moon saw Manchester United's decline, they immediately added fuel to the fire and made an offer of 8000 million euros.

This caused a complete uproar among the media and fans around the world!

crazy!

Completely crazy!
Even Dortmund themselves did not expect that Reus could be sold at such a high price.

8000 million euros!
When the Hornets saw that Manchester United was not prepared to continue bidding, they immediately agreed to Manchester City's offer.

After a phone call with Guardiola, Reus publicly expressed his feelings in the media.

"Being able to play alongside a player like Messi is the pride that all professional players dream of!"

Just like that, the little rocket was transferred from Dortmund to Manchester City at a sky-high price of 8000 million euros! Manchester United was hit hard.

From Aurier to Reus, Manchester United failed to buy any of the players they liked.

Especially Royce.

Several attempts to raise the price failed to stop Manchester City, which made Manchester United, which prides itself on its wealth, very depressed.

Red Devils CEO Ed Woodward has also been criticized by fans.

Wasn't it said that there was a transfer budget of 2 million pounds?
Why can't Reus be signed?
……

When Yang Cheng received the news that Reus was transferring to Manchester City for 8000 million euros, he was stunned.

"What's the matter?" Xia Qing was startled by Yang Cheng's actions.

They had just returned from Xinjiang Province and were planning to stay in the capital for a few days before returning to Europe.

There's still a lot of work to do over there.

Especially in Malaga, Spain, things are changing every day.

"Guardiola made a very good deal!" Yang Cheng shook his head helplessly.

Manchester City actually had obvious shortcomings last season.

That is, the attacking speed is slow and the flanks are not strong.

Jovetic is good, but not outstanding enough.

David Silva plays on the left wing and lacks sharp breakthroughs and speed.

To some extent, this restricts Manchester City's strength, especially Messi.

But now, Royce is here!
This is enough to prove that Guardiola is really building this Manchester City according to his own intentions.

Sign Reus for 8000 million euros!
This does seem crazy.

But Manchester City needs it.

Many people have previously rumored that Guardiola has his eyes on Hazard, a Chinese player from Bayswater.

Yang Cheng just didn't believe it.

The reason is very simple. After Hazard arrived, his functions overlapped with Messi's.

If Messi had not been bought, Yang Cheng was certain that Guardiola would have signed Hazard.

But not now.

Instead it was Royce.

This deal is so good!
"It will be difficult to play against Manchester City in the new season!" Yang Cheng frowned.

Unexpectedly, Xia Qing, who was sitting next to him, burst out laughing when she heard it.

“You say that before every season, but it turns out that you get good results every season.”

“So, I have confidence in you!”

Yang Cheng smiled with satisfaction.

It’s pretty good to get encouragement and affirmation from people around you.

But this time Manchester City has indeed strengthened.

It doesn't even seem to have any shortcomings.

"Do you want me to raise some money so you can sign one or two heavyweight stars?" Xia Qing suddenly asked with a smile.

Yang Cheng was slightly stunned, but quickly shook his head.

"It's better not to. There are still many places where we need to spend money next."

Over the past few years, Bayswater Chinese has achieved record annual revenue.

Xia Qing invites PricewaterhouseCoopers to audit the club's finances every year, so Bayswater Chinese can almost be said to be the club with the best financial status in European football and is also the most recognized by the outside world.

And it is profitable every year.

But outsiders don’t know that Xia Qing withdraws a lot of funds from the club every year through various channels and methods.

It's a bit like running a company from a public account to a private account.

There are many ways and methods, including various service fees, rental fees, authorization fees, etc.

In addition to acquiring the Nice and Atalanta clubs, the money was also used to build a training center in the country. The team also plans to buy Malaga from Al-Thani.

Although Yang Cheng is in the country, he has been keeping an eye on every move in Europe.

Especially Al-Thani.

After Malaga was relegated, the team's situation has been getting worse and worse, and the pressure he is under is also increasing.

It is said that many local fan organizations in Malaga are publicly calling on fans to sign, intending to collect 100,000 signatures to go to the city government to accuse him and his family.

There are also reports that after Malaga was relegated, its capital chain had problems and the problem of delayed payment of players' salaries was very serious, and it was at risk of bankruptcy at any time.

If that is the case, Al-Thani will not last long.

So now, Yang Cheng will definitely not spend money to buy a star player.

Taking a step back, are there any stars as good as the ones he has now?
"Don't worry about my side. Prepare well and raise funds. I think Al-Thani is about to collapse."

Yang Cheng instructed Xia Qing.

"Don't worry, I'm always here." Xia Qing smiled at him like a rich woman.

……

The day before Yang Cheng returned to London, Real Madrid made a second offer for Paul Pogba.

After their first tentative offer of 8000 million euros was rejected without hesitation by the Chinese in Bayswater, the Galacticos quickly reorganized a new offer.

This time they raised the transfer fee to 9000 million euros.

This is not high for the French midfielder who is only 21 years old but whose market value has been estimated at 8000 million euros.

Especially when the World Cup is generally popular.

After Manchester United lost the competition to Manchester City for Reus, they suffered another setback in the transfer of Hummels.

German centre-back refuses to join Manchester United!

The reason is simple, Manchester United cannot play in the Champions League.

And Hummels is full of expectations for returning to Bayern.

After selling Reus, Dortmund is unwilling to sell Hummels.

The Hornets immediately signed Aubameyang from Liverpool.

After a series of setbacks, Manchester United turned their attention to Paul Pogba.

This is also a very important goal for the Red Devils to recruit players this summer.

Especially after Aurier, Reus and Hummels suffered setbacks in succession, Ed Woodward was determined to get Paul Pogba.

You can't always be raising the price for others, right?

After Real Madrid offered 9000 million euros, Manchester United quickly followed up with an offer of 9500 million euros.

But Real Madrid was obviously determined to get Pogba, and immediately raised its offer again to 1 million euros.

That is 8000 million pounds.

This immediately caused an uproar in the entire transfer market.

Another player with a transfer fee exceeding 100 million is born!

But Manchester United responded immediately and raised their offer again to £8500 million.

Everyone can see that it is Real Madrid and Manchester United who are bidding!

Anyone can see that these two giants are determined to get Pogba.

Pogba and his agent Mino Raiola are sitting on the Diaoyutai State, maintaining communication with both sides.

The media and fans all over the world are concerned about their every move.

Everyone can see that this is the transfer target of this summer!
As the best performing player in the World Cup, Pogba's transfer is bound to become the most watched focus this summer.

However, Real Madrid has always liked to chase hot spots and traffic.

As the hottest star in the World Cup, how could Real Madrid bear to miss Pogba?
Especially snatching the French midfielder from Manchester United.

So, Real Madrid quickly made another offer of 9000 million pounds.

Manchester United quickly responded with an offer of 9500 million pounds.

But Real Madrid quickly raised their offer to £1 million.

The premium has reached 50%!
Everyone could clearly feel that the two top teams were starting to become cautious.

It was at this time that The Sun, which has always been famous for its transfer rumors, suddenly broke a bombshell.

Paul Pogba's transfer seems to be a battle between Real Madrid and Manchester United.

But in fact, there is a struggle among sponsors involved behind the scenes.

Everyone knows that Bayswater Chinese's sponsor is Puma, Real Madrid's sponsor is Adidas, and Manchester United's sponsor is Nike.

As a rising star in world football, both Adidas and Nike hope to recruit Pogba to their own teams instead of keeping him in the Puma camp.

In this case, both major sponsors support their respective teams and have stated that if Paul Pogba can be signed, the sponsors are willing to support the club by increasing the sponsorship fees each year!

This gives both Real Madrid and Manchester United great motivation.

As a result, both parties soon raised their bids again.

Manchester United offered £1.05 million.

But after much hesitation, Real Madrid raised the price to 1.1 million pounds.

Media and fans around the world are watching the bidding between the two European giants.

Pogba has revealed the news through his agent Raiola that he will not resist either Manchester United or Real Madrid as long as his personal treatment is met.

Real Madrid general manager Jose Sanchez was interviewed by Spanish media and said that 1.1 million pounds would not be Real Madrid's last offer. "We have made an evaluation. Paul Pogba will become a super idol like Zidane!"

Marca revealed that Real Madrid believes that this offer is enough to repel Manchester United!

And now, the ball is at Manchester United's feet.

The offer has been raised to this level, will Manchester United follow suit?
Ed Woodward said in an interview with media reporters that this was a crazy decision!

1.1 million pounds is close to 1.4 million euros.

"There is no doubt that Paul Pogba is a very good player with great potential, but we must seriously consider whether to continue to offer!"

But Ed Woodward's remarks were criticized by the media and Manchester United fans.

The atmosphere has become so tense, and you are saying something like this at this time?
Is this a sign of backing down?
It was the same with Royce.

Manchester United kept raising the price with Manchester City, and as the price kept rising, they finally gave in.

Now, Pogba still wants to do this?

……

Manchester United's headquarters office building is located in the SOHO district of London, very close to Grosvenor Square where the Bayswater Chinese are located.

It's just a few steps away.

But unlike the Chinese in Bayswater, Manchester United rents this office building.

Moreover, it is a townhouse facing the street, not a single-family house, so the area is much smaller.

In recent days, the British media even arranged people to block Manchester United’s headquarters.

Van Gaal was photographed coming to sign the contract.

They are now waiting to see when Manchester United will run to Grosvenor Square to connect with the Chinese in Bayswater.

According to them, Manchester United has a unique advantage.

Going over to get a quote is definitely more direct than faxing!
Of course, this is a joke.

But Ed Woodward can't laugh at all now.

He was checkmated!
"According to public opinion, fans are extremely dissatisfied with our transfer operations this summer. From Aurier to Reus to Hummels to Paul Pogba, we have not been able to successfully sign them!"

Although Manchester United signed Herrera and Rojo, the influence of these two players cannot be compared with the previous ones.

This has led to the impression among fans that Manchester United cannot sign any of the stars they want.

"Some fans even mocked us for being a price-raising club!"

"Price-raising alliance?" Ed Woodward was stunned.

This title is simply an insult to him and Manchester United!
"Do they really think that buying players in the transfer market is like buying cabbage in the vegetable market?" Ed Woodward also felt very angry.

Why don’t the fans understand the difficulties of the club?
That’s £1.1 million!
"In addition, our negotiations with Nike and Adidas have also been affected to some extent."

"What do you mean?" Ed Woodward's heart skipped a beat.

If it's just accusations and anger from fans, he doesn't really take it to heart.

Because he is not responsible to the fans at all.

He only cares about the reaction of his immediate superiors, the Glazer family.

But now that sponsors are involved, he has to take it seriously.

“They are all worried about whether we can return to the top four!”

When Ed Woodward heard his assistant's words, he fell silent.

Simply put, sponsors lack confidence in Manchester United's future.

Because Ferguson retired!

Manchester United's multi-year partnership with Nike will expire in 2015.

In the past two years, Manchester United has been negotiating with Nike about renewing its sponsorship contract.

However, there are some differences between Nike and Manchester United on the amount of the sponsorship contract, and the gap is quite large.

Ed Woodward knows in his heart that Nike is actually just watching the Chinese in Bayswater.

The West London team's sponsorship contract with Puma expires in 2016, with an annual sponsorship fee of 3000 million pounds.

With the current booming momentum of Bayswater Chinese, if Puma wants to renew the contract, it must show more sincerity.

Even with Puma's size, can it really take over the current Chinese in Bayswater?

Nike and Adidas are undoubtedly drooling over this team.

The two major sponsors will definitely participate in the competition.

At this time, they were a little slack towards Manchester United, which was also within Ed Woodward's expectations.

But the Red Devils' sponsorship contract must be negotiated as soon as possible.

Ed Woodward and the Glazer family behind him expect more than £7000 million a year.

This will greatly increase Manchester United's commercial income and overall revenue level.

But at this critical moment, Ferguson suffered a stroke and was hospitalized. Manchester United failed to break into the top four and lost the qualification for the Champions League.

This is also why Manchester United is eager to sign stars such as Reus and Pogba this summer.

The Red Devils need to introduce superstars to stimulate the football market, and at the same time prove to all sponsors, including Nike and Adidas, that the Red Devils have the ambition and strength to return to the top four!
Thinking of this, Ed Woodward felt a headache.

As for Real Madrid's offer, 1.1 million pounds is definitely the limit for the Galacticos.

Or close to the limit.

The strength of both sides is not much different, and each other knows the situation well.

If Paul Pogba hadn't taken advantage of the World Cup, he wouldn't have been worth this much.

But the problem is, they can't delay the deal until next year.

Thinking of this, Ed Woodward gritted his teeth.

"Go, prepare a brand new offer!"

"How much?" The assistant's voice trembled slightly.

"1.2 million pounds!"

"so much?"

Ed Woodward's eyes flashed with a fierce look, "We can't let Real Madrid raise the price anymore!"

Just seconds!

"but……"

"I'll call the boss right away, you just do it." Ed Woodward said resolutely.

Only if we get Pogba will it be easier to negotiate with sponsors.

That's a 10-year sponsorship contract. As long as it increases by 500 million pounds every year, wouldn't it be 10 million pounds in 5000 years?
At 21, Paul Pogba can still play for Manchester United for at least another 10 years.

This deal is still quite good.

Thinking of this, Ed Woodward's eyes became more determined.

……

When Manchester United suddenly announced, after two days of hesitation, that it had made an offer of 1.2 million pounds for Paul Pogba, the whole world was shocked.

Almost everyone found it outrageous!
1.2 million pounds, a full 1.5 million euros!
Manchester United are going crazy!
Where did they get so much money?

But what is even more surprising is that after Manchester United made the offer, Real Madrid immediately announced that it would withdraw from the competition for Paul Pogba.

In other words, Manchester United's 1.2 million pounds became the only offer.

Bayswater Chinese announced that they accepted Manchester United's offer.

But the problems that followed surprised everyone and also revealed the incompetence of Manchester United's new management team.

After obtaining the consent of the Chinese in Bayswater, Manchester United formally negotiated with Pogba's agent Raiola on the player's salary and benefits.

The Italians directly offered a sky-high weekly salary of 30 pounds!

In Manchester United, there is only one person who earns £30 a week.

That's Rooney!
Pogba will be comparable to Rooney as soon as he arrives!
What surprised everyone even more was that Ed Woodward actually agreed after the negotiations!
Yes, he actually agreed to Raiola's proposed weekly salary of 30 pounds.

Everyone was dumbfounded!

They pay a sky-high annual salary of 1.2 million pounds here, and a sky-high weekly salary of 30 pounds to the players there. Is Manchester United crazy?
After Real Madrid withdrew from the competition for Paul Pogba, they immediately signed Colombian midfielder James Rodriguez from French Ligue 8000 Monaco for million euros.

Not only that, Real Madrid won the battle with Paris Saint-Germain and signed Costa Rican goalkeeper Navas, who performed brilliantly in the World Cup, from Nice for a transfer fee of 3000 million euros.

While sending Navas away, Nice also officially announced that it had signed Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson from Portuguese Super League team Rio Ave for 100 million euros.

The 21-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper joined the youth training camp of Portuguese Super League giants Benfica from Sao Paulo, Brazil in January 2010.

But in the summer of 2011, he moved to the lower league Ribeirão 1968 on a free transfer.

One year later, he moved to Rio Ave in the Portuguese Super League.

After sitting on the bench for a year in Rio Ave, in the 13th round of the Portuguese Super League in the 14/9 season, the main goalkeeper Roman Salin was injured. Ederson came on as a substitute, seized the opportunity and performed well.

Then in the 18 rounds of the Portuguese Super League, he conceded 28 goals, and his performance was only average.

But behind this Brazilian goalkeeper is the famous Portuguese agent, Mendes!
Not only that, Mendes also holds half ownership of Ederson.

Nice chose this player through the scouting system and selected him from Yang Cheng's attention list.

Over the past few years, as Bayswater Chinese has grown bigger and stronger, the relationship with agents has gradually taken a dominant position.

Mendes also longs to form a closer collaboration with Yang Cheng.

So the two sides hit it off, and Mendes and Rio Ave sold 100% ownership of Ederson to Nice.

In addition, Nice also announced that it had sold Algerian international winger Mahrez to Barcelona for a transfer fee of 6000 million euros.

As the best winger in Ligue 3.5 last season, Mahrez averaged dribbles per game and was hailed as the Messi of Ligue .

In the World Cup, it was his outstanding performance that helped Algeria break through the group stage and create Algeria's best World Cup record in history.

Mahrez has made great contributions!
Thanks to his outstanding performance in Ligue 1 and his eye-catching performance in the World Cup, although Mahrez is not as famous as superstars such as Pogba and James Rodriguez, he has also attracted the attention of many top teams.

In the end, it was Barcelona that successfully persuaded Nice to bring him to Camp Nou for 6000 million euros to fill the vacancy on the right after Messi left.

The whole world was shocked once again!
black!
Nice is really dark now!

Almost everyone thinks that Barcelona was ripped off by signing Mahrez.

But there is no way. The player is a good player and very scarce. Barcelona needs him urgently, so they can only be ripped off.

That is, when the news of Barcelona signing Mahrez came out, Yang Cheng also received news from Malaga.
