Super Marshal
Chapter 359: Bereavement dog
Sitting in the living room of a mansion in the suburbs of Manchester, Veron and his agent Hidalgo were relatively speechless.
He has never been a sensitive and fragile person, otherwise, during his time in Parma and Lazio, it would be impossible to suppress Nedved and, Simeone and Crespo and other stars and become the veritable core of the team.
Without a strong heart, it is impossible to do it.
But now, he looked depressed.
Before joining Manchester United, he was the star of Lazio and one of the top midfielders in Serie A. He even surpassed Zidane of Juventus, and even Nedved could only play him as his deputy.
But now, in just two years, Zidane has become the world's number one superstar, and Nedved has also become the star of Juventus, while Veron, who is depressed at Manchester United, has a real life experience. It's too impermanent.
Sometimes, he even wondered, if there was no fake passport turmoil that year, and he did not leave Serie A, would all this never happen again? Will he still be the majestic white wizard back then?
No one knows the hypothetical thing, but the immediate problem is imminent.
"I talked to Ferguson." Veron whispered.
The agent Fernando Hidalgo ignited hope and asked, "What did he say?"
"He said..." Veron was a little unspeakable, "...the management is responsible for the transfer."
Hidalgo was completely disappointed, "He is evasive, irresponsibly evasive."
"I know." Veron smiled bitterly. "But there are some things he doesn't have to say in person.
Everyone can tell that Manchester United's patience with him has reached its limit.
He is one of the highest paid players on the team, but almost everyone believes that his performance is far from his salary.
Manchester United gave him two years, and now it seems that they have exhausted all their patience.
From the perspective of businessmen, they did not do anything wrong, but...Is this a business?
"Juan, everyone knows that your performance at Manchester United is not bad. You have shown a high level in many games. What you need is trust, a better environment and space. After Beckham leaves the team , They should give you more trust."
Hidalgo is obviously very dissatisfied with Manchester United's decision, because they did not say that two years ago.
In order to invite Veron to Manchester United, they made a lot of promises, but the results were not all fulfilled.
For example, they promised to tailor tactics for Veron, but in fact, this promise was only fulfilled at the beginning. During that time, Veron also showed no less than the level of Serie A, and even won the Premier League monthly. The best player.
But after an injury, Veron was suspended, Ferguson returned to the traditional style of play, and his performance improved steadily. After Veron recovered from his injury, it would be difficult to find a place in the team.
Scholes, Beckham, Giggs, Keane, Gary Neville... How many years they have played at Manchester United, they have a good understanding of each other, and they are not on the same rhythm with Veron when they play. It was difficult for Veron to adapt.
Moreover, Manchester United’s requirements for the central midfielder also make it difficult for Veron to adapt, because he must not be able to think about how to control the rhythm and sort out the midfield, while on the other side, he has to retreat and fight actively. That is not what he did. good at.
Regarding these questions, Veron mentioned to Ferguson more than once, and the answers he got were to comfort him. If he was required to be patient, the coaching staff and management still trusted him and the like.
But now it seems that Veron feels that he still overestimates his status and influence in Manchester United.
Even Beckham can sell, let alone him?
Thinking of this, Belon let out a long, melancholy breath, and raised his head, staring at the ceiling in a dazed manner.
Leave Manchester United like this?
Just leave a dark section in your career? Anti-Japanese Tiger Army
Fernando Hidalgo also has a headache because he can't do anything about it.
As an agent, he can talk to the Manchester United management and Ferguson, but the other side's attitude is so clear that it is difficult for him to recover, so the wisest choice now is to quickly find a good next home and leave Manchester United.
But this point, Veron was emotionally unacceptable.
He is a arrogant person. He was staring at the Premier League as the world's No. 1 midfielder, but now he wants to leave like a bereaved dog. How could he accept it?
"I got news that there are currently two teams that have clearly stated that they are interested in you."
Veron still raised his head and said nothing, but Hidalgo knew he was listening.
"Juventus want to sell Davis. They want you to fill their midfield."
Veron's hand on the sofa leather shook visibly.
Go to Juventus?
Isn't that to lay hands on Nedved?
Hidalgo also understood Veron’s thoughts, sighed in his heart, and continued: “I heard that yesterday, Chelsea also formally asked Manchester United for a price, and they wanted to invite you to join the Blues.”
"Chelsea?" Veron finally looked at his agent, narrowed his eyes, "Gao Han!"
When he was at Manchester United, he competed with Alpine. He knew the terrible young coach, and at the same time he could feel the passing style of Atletico Madrid, which suits his technical characteristics.
"But they can't play in the Champions League, they can only play in the UEFA Cup." Hidalgo reminded.
Veron nodded, he knew this.
Go to Juventus, can play in the Champions League, but the tactical status is definitely not high.
Going to Chelsea is also very risky, because everyone is now wondering whether Alpine's pass-and-control play can adapt to the Premier League.
Veron is twenty-eight years old, and he will be in a few years. If the next team repeats the mistakes of Manchester United, then his career will be completely over.
Just when Veron decided to stop, the agent's cell phone suddenly rang.
Hidalgo answered the phone, um, he said, "He's right next to me," and then looked at Veron and covered the phone's microphone, "It's Gao Han, he wants to tell you something. sentence."
Veron was taken aback, but he reached out and took the call.
"Hi, hello, Mr. Gao Han, this is Juan."
"Juan, hello." Gao Han's voice came through the phone.
"I won't say any extra polite remarks, I just ask you, are you willing to leave the Premier League like this?"
...
...
In the head coach's office at the Carrington training base, Ferguson was a little fidgeted.
The younger brother Martin Ferguson has returned and brought back the latest developments.
Eindhoven further increased the asking price for Arjan Robben, from the five million euros that the two parties had negotiated, to ten million euros quickly, which made Martin Ferguson return from the Netherlands without success.
"I've been in contact with Eindhoven, and they made it clear that at least this price." Martin Ferguson sighed, shaking his head.
Robben has indeed performed quite well in the Netherlands and is Eindhoven's most promising star, but 10 million euros is indeed a bit high, because he has proven himself in the top league and the national team.
As the best player in the Eredivisie last season, Ajax winger Van der Meade's worth is about this number, but Van der Meade is 23 years old, more mature and stable, and is still performing in the national team. outstanding.
Now, a Robben asks for 10 million euros, which Ferguson cannot accept.
"It seems that for Robben's valuation, we and Eindhoven have a big difference." Ferguson said in a deep voice. Puppet Love
He has been in European football for many years and naturally knows this kind of negotiation trick.
To put it bluntly, I just want to raise the price.
"Martin, you go to contact Blackburn, and then release the news, we have shifted the target and want to buy Duff."
Martin Ferguson nodded immediately.
This is also a common coping strategy, shifting the target, and competing with each other for patience.
Of course, if you look at the valuation, 10 million euros to buy Robben, it is really better to buy Duff directly from Blackburn, at least the latter has proven his strength in the Premier League, there is no problem of adaptability.
On the contrary, Robben, after the introduction, whether he can adapt to the Premier League is still unknown.
As the only club in European football that is self-sufficient and financially healthy, Manchester United's transfer strategy has always been skillful and pragmatic, especially after the lessons of the failed introduction of Veron at sky-high prices.
"How is the situation in Paris?" Ferguson asked concerned.
Martin Ferguson shook his head, "There is still not much progress. Yesterday Peter Kenyon made an appointment with Paris Saint-Germain Chairman Francis Graille, but was rejected. They made it clear that if we did not raise the offer, they Won't sit down with us and talk."
Manchester United’s offer to Ronaldinho has risen to 17 million euros, but the 30 million euros that Paris Saint-Germain wants, there is still a big gap, which is also the fact that the two clubs have not been able to sit well. The biggest obstacle to negotiation.
"But I received news in Paris that their debts are already very serious and they can't take it off, and the media broke the news that the so-called Real Madrid intervened in the transfer, but the situation is actually different."
"How do you say?" Ferguson asked concerned.
In the past few years, Manchester United is one of the top giants in European football, and only lost to Real Madrid in terms of influence.
Therefore, Ferguson believes that for players at the level of Ronaldinho, Manchester United’s biggest competitor is the Galaxy Battleship, and even Barcelona in La Liga is not in their eyes.
Everyone knows the situation of the latter in recent years, and, this summer, the top priority for Barcelona is internal cleansing, not signings.
"Real Madrid is really interested in Ronaldinho, but they are not in a hurry. They hope to make a decision in advance and operate again next year. But Paris Saint-Germain is in dire need of money and it is impossible to accept Real Madrid's proposal."
After Ferguson heard this, UU read www.uukanshu.com couldn't help but laughed, "That said, Barcelona is eager for internal cleaning. We are the only team currently interested in Ronaldinho in the transfer market."
Martin Ferguson nodded and said, "That's right."
"What did the management say?"
"Peter Kenyon told me that we should temporarily suspend contact with Paris Saint-Germain and the players, give them some pressure, let them take the initiative to lower the asking price, and the players should put pressure on the club as appropriate. Conducive to our next negotiation."
"Well," Ferguson nodded, "then do as he wants, put it aside for now, anyway, it's only early July, it's too early."
"Understood." Martin Ferguson replied, "Oh, by the way, I just received the news."
"what?"
"Chelsea has already negotiated with Veron."
"So fast?" Ferguson was a little surprised.
"Yes, I heard that it was Gao Han who came forward in person and called Veron. This morning's decision."
Ferguson frowned.
Veron's strength is clear to him, but the Argentine midfielder is really difficult to integrate into Manchester United's midfielder.
But I went to Chelsea...
Ferguson took a deep breath, always feeling that this was not a good thing.
Even, faintly, he had a very ominous premonition.
