Chapter 148 The transfer market is open, and the giants are in a crazy arms race!
"What's the matter? Look at your sullen look?"
On June 6, 11 days have passed since the end of the German Cup final.
In the manor in the south of Munich, Lin Quan has just finished training.
When I got home, I saw Guardiola slumped on the sofa, and couldn't help asking curiously.
"Bayern Club let me know that they want to adjust the goal of leading the team."
Lin Quan was thoughtful, did he set his goal to the defending Champions League champion?
"When they hired me before, Bayern had just qualified for the group stage, the quarter-finals hadn't even started, and the championship was even less likely.
So Bayern hopes that I can lead the team to win the Champions League, which is the highest request they have made of me. "
Lin Quan nodded. This request is not too much. After all, Bayern's strength and Guardiola's coaching ability are here.
"what about now?"
"Now? Now Bayern has the championship, so Bayern executives told me that I hope I can help the team complete the transition smoothly, and there is no requirement for the Champions League championship."
"Isn't that a good thing?"
Lin Quan was very puzzled. Although it is a good thing to have pressure, there is only one Champions League champion every year.
There are so many giants in Europe, no one can say with confidence that they will definitely win the Big Ears Cup.
If Guardiola has really set the goal of defending the Champions League, then the pressure on him will be too great.
That would be tantamount to dancing in shackles, leaving little room for self-expression.
Guardiola is a very individual person, presumably he does not like to live such a life.
"Is it a good thing? Bayern's top management set this goal, which means that they will not make too much investment in the team's operations in the next few years, and the annual transfer budget will be very limited."
It turned out to be the card transfer fee!
"What's the budget they approved for you?"
Lin Quan is very curious about Bayern's budget for the summer transfer period.
"3000 million euros!"
Guardio stretched out three fingers and said helplessly.
"No way? Even Gotze can't afford it at this price!"
Gotze has already announced that he will move to Bayern.
But because Dortmund's attitude is very firm, they are unwilling to sell at a low price.
Therefore, Bayern can only pay 3700 million euros in liquidated damages, directly activate the default clause, and bring Gotze over.
If Bayern really only gave a budget of 3000 million, how would they buy Gotze?
"Sell people to raise money. For example, your teammate Peterson at Werder Bremen has already been booked by Werder Bremen with an offer of 300 million euros."
Guardiola has already regarded Lin Quan as a Bayern player, so he has no intention of concealing various inside information.
Peterson's 300 million is quite affordable.
Considering the lineup of Werder Bremen, even if Bayern offers 500 million euros, it is estimated that the other party will have to pay.
"In addition to Peterson, Gomez also has the intention of leaving. He approached me after the Champions League final and tried to ask about his tactical arrangements in the team."
"I told him that I would continue to use Mandzukic as the main player, and Gomez said he wanted to move.
I agreed and asked him to contact the next player himself. At present, it is estimated that we have almost discussed with the next player. We only need to wait for the start of the transfer period to complete the deal. "
Guardiola is not very good at using the center forward, nor does he rely on the center forward very much.
Until later, after suffering from not being a good center forward, I happened to meet a man named Harland.
Even if Gomez doesn't take the initiative to apply for a transfer, Guardiola will probably clean him up.
Even Mandzukic, the hero who won the Champions League, may have difficulty obtaining the absolute main position in Guardiola's tactics.
Lin Quan nodded, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
Not surprisingly, Gomez's next home should be Fiorentina in Serie A. The transfer fee given by the other party seems to be 2000 million euros, with a down payment of 1600 million euros and a follow-up payment of 400 million euros in installments.
This price is very cheap for a striker of Gomez's level.
When Bayern treated the team's heroes, they showed grace and did not get too stuck on the transfer fee.
But in this way, the money is still not much!
Peterson's 300 million, plus Gomez's 1600 million, plus the original 3000 million, this is only 4900 million.
If Gotze's 3700 million is deducted, it is equivalent to 1200 million left.
What can 1200 million euros buy in the transfer market?
It seems that you can only buy little monsters under the age of 20, and you can't be that kind of particularly outstanding little monster.
As for the stars who are in their prime, there is a high probability that they cannot be bought.
Therefore, you have to sell people.
"Bayern's midfield is a bit crowded. I plan to clean up some people. Among Gustavo and Martinez, I am more optimistic about Martinez."
The implication is that Gustavo has to leave.
The Brazilian has played very few games this season, only played twice in the league, and rarely has the opportunity to appear.
So Lin Quan was not surprised that he was cleared out.
Considering Gustavo's age and ability, if he is put on the shelf, it is estimated that he can sell for about 1500 million euros.
Calculated in this way, the transfer fee that Guardiola can control is about 2700 million euros.
This amount of money can only buy one good player at most.
"It would be great if I didn't buy Gotze. In that case, I would have 6500 million euros in hand, and I could try to quote for Busquets."
Guardiola sighed that he really admired the young player Professor Bu.
Not to mention his ability, his outstanding performance can be seen on both offensive and defensive ends.
Not only that, Professor Bu is most praised for his clever mind.
This guy, on the court, knows when to do what.
At critical times, he can still use the stunts of La Masia Film and Television Academy to cheat a yellow card or something.
Compared with Busquets, Gotze is younger, but to be honest, he is not the type that Guardiola wants.
If there is no Lin Quan, buying Gotze is a good choice.
But in the case of Lin Quan, this deal seems a bit redundant.
Gotze's ability is indeed good, but he overlaps with Lin Quan in position.
If Bayern gave him a very generous transfer budget, then it would be no problem to spend 3700 million to buy Gotze.
This can not only strengthen the team's lineup, but also weaken the strength of direct competitors in the league.
However, when the budget was not sufficient, Guardiola was very upset when Gotzeka killed a transfer budget of 3700 million.
Lin Quan on the side didn't speak, he was thinking:
Is the 3000 million signing fee that Bayern gave himself included in this year's transfer budget?
If this is the case, then I can be regarded as the culprit that caused Guardiola to have no money to buy people...
……
On July 7, the transfer window officially opened.
Barcelona, who had already negotiated all the conditions with the Brazilian supernova, couldn't wait to announce the transfer of Neymar.
Barcelona spent a huge sum of 5700 million euros to bring back this high-profile superstar from Brazil.
The addition of Neymar has further enhanced Barcelona's strength on the wing.
People are looking forward to the chemistry between him and Messi.
Barcelona took the lead, and their rivals in the league, Real Madrid, naturally couldn't sit still.
Real Madrid first introduced Isco at a price of 3000 million euros, and then announced the introduction of Real Sociedad supernova Asir Illararamendi at a price of 3200 million the next day.
Barcelona spent 5700 million euros, and Real Madrid spent 6200 million euros. Compared with spending money, Real Madrid has never been afraid of anyone.
That's not the biggest deal yet though, as Real Madrid are making contact with Tottenham winger Gareth Bale.
It is rumored that if this deal can be reached, it is likely to refresh the football transfer fee record.
When there is buying, there will naturally be selling.
After firing Mourinho, many players he introduced will be purged.
Among them, Ergou joined Arsenal at a price of 5000 million.
Smoker Higuain joined Napoli for 3700 million euros.
In addition, Callejon, Albiol and others also transferred and left one after another. Kaka, who terminated his contract with Real Madrid and became a free agent, returned to Serie A and joined his old club AC Milan for free.
After the La Liga duo started to fight, other giants couldn't bear it anymore.
Paris Saint-Germain of Ligue 6400 once again spent money like water, poaching Naples star Cavani for [-] million euros.
Another Ligue 6000 giant, Monaco, also joined the arms race. They spent 4500 million euros and [-] million euros respectively to buy Atletico Madrid's striker Falcao and Porto's rising star Ronaldo.
On the Premier League side, the Manchester duo couldn't help but make a move.
With the capital injection from the local tycoons in the Middle East, Manchester City spent a lot of money, spending hundreds of millions of euros in the transfer market, and bought Fernandinho, Jovetic, Negredo and Navas respectively.
Manchester United spent 3200 million euros to buy Fellaini.
……
Transactions of tens of millions of euros have been produced one after another. This year's transfer market is several times more crazy than last year!
However, the Bundesliga side, especially Bayern, seems quiet.
They have not officially announced the addition of new players for a long time, and they have not even been able to complete the already confirmed transfer of Goetze.
This made the outside world smell a little unusual.
Bayern's general manager Hoeness felt a lot of pressure. When he reported to the club chairman Rummenigge, he said in embarrassment:
"When we recruited Gotze, we promised to guarantee his main position and playing time.
But if we sign Lin Quan again, the positions of the two will be a bit duplicated, and Gotze's playing time and main position may not be guaranteed. "
Hoeness is hinting that Rummenigge can only choose one of these two players.
Rummenigge also has a bit of a headache, Bayern and Gotze contacted very early.
In order to be able to impress this domestic supernova who shines in the Bundesliga, Bayern has offered very generous conditions.
Now that Gotze has already officially announced that he will join Bayern, if Bayern backtracks at this time, it will be a lot of fun.
So the deal needs to go ahead no matter what.
Bayern's face cannot be lost, and buying Goce at a price of 3700 million is absolutely guaranteed.
Gotze's performance in the league and the Champions League is obvious to all. No one can deny his strength and potential.
But the problem is that Lin Quan is also very strong, even stronger than Gotze!
His results at Werder Bremen are also amazing, and compared to last season's Dortmund's four-four.
Lin Quan led the weaker Werder Bremen to win the German Cup and directly eliminated Bayern Munich on the field.
Even if others don't recognize Lin Quan's strength, can Bayern, who lost at his feet twice, still deny his strength?
"Can we continue to negotiate with Gotze? We can guarantee that they will compete fairly in the team."
Rummenigge doesn't want to give up Lin Quan. Once this opportunity to sign the opponent for free is missed, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future.
"Okay, I'll talk to his agent, but I don't think there's much hope of them compromising.
You know, Gotze is the absolute core of the Dortmund team. He came to us only as the main force and not the core. For Gotze, this in itself is a kind of concession. "
"So it is too difficult to ask the other party to make concessions!"
Rummenigge nodded, although he knew that there was little hope, he still asked Hoeness to give it a try.
At the same time, he called Summer and asked the other party to contact Lin Quan to see if the other party would like to substitute Gotze.
Bayern is not a small club, they are a giant and there are many games to play every season.
Leagues, cups, Champions League, Club World Cup, Super Cup... It is common to play fifty or sixty games a year.
If Lin Quan can accept the arrangement of coming off the bench, it is absolutely no problem to play twenty or thirty games.
But will Lin Quan accept it?
the answer is negative.
After hearing the conditions put forward by Summer, Pere refused without thinking:
"Mr. Summer, don't you think it's ridiculous to use Lin as a substitute based on his performance in the Bundesliga?"
Summers certainly finds this ridiculous. Lin Quan not only scored 42 goals last season, but also contributed 21 assists.
Whether it is the number of goals or the number of assists, he has set a new record in Bundesliga history.
Letting such a superstar with top statistics play as a substitute, unless you meet someone with a very good temper, otherwise, it is impossible for normal people to agree.
But Sammer came with a task from Bayern, so he could only bite the bullet and say:
"Mr. Perret, Lin Quan is only 17 years old. To be honest, it is incredible to play the main force at Bayern at this age."
This is going to make a fuss about Lin Quan's age, but Pere doesn't accept this at all:
"Hehe, among the giants in the five major leagues, there are still many teams that are willing to give Lin Quan the main position and guarantee his playing time. If Bayern insists on this, then my players can only switch to him!"
Summer knew that the other party's words were not meant to scare people. In the transfer market, Lin Quan was so sought-after.
So he didn't dare to continue talking, so he could only go back to Rummenigge to report the situation.
Coincidentally, Hoeness also came back.
As in the case of Summer, Gotze does not accept the so-called fair competition.
He seemed to have heard the wind and knew that Bayern was in contact with Lin Quan.
This greatly annoyed him and his agents, who believed that Bayern had cheated them.
But the problem is that Gotze has already officially announced that he will join Bayern, and now both sides can't even regret it.
You can't let Gotze go back to Dortmund in despair, right?
It is said that in Dortmund, Gotze has been afraid to go out recently.
Some extreme fans even surrounded his residence and burned his jersey outside his residence.
The corners of Rummenigge's mouth twitched slightly when he heard the news: Gotze is too miserable, right?
