Chapter 40 [041] The transfer continues
After the introduction of Iaquinta, Ranieri held a press conference, and his signings this summer have basically ended.However, he also said that the current team is indeed too bloated, and before the start of the league, he will definitely make a slimming for the team.This made some Juventus players panic, especially the players in the midfield.After all, the team is too bloated now, that is, the midfield and the backcourt, and there is really no need to slim down the forward line.

During this transfer period, Juventus introduced a total of 13 players, including 5 defenders, 6 midfielders and 2 forwards.Because the newly introduced Miccoli was transferred out, in fact Juventus also introduced a striker.Coupled with Juventus' original staffing, the team's midfielders are absolutely bloated. Although a few people have left now, this is not enough.Therefore, Juventus's slimming plan is imperative.At this time, Xu Zhoude's agent Robert Hughes found Ranieri, and he had to figure out what position Xu Zhou was in this team.

In the summer of 07, the transfer of European football was nicknamed "Earthquake", because it all came from the transfer of Frenchman Henry, the number one star of the Premier League giants Arsenal, to Barcelona.Rijkaard spent 2400 million euros to take away the French striker from Arsenal's godfather Arsene Wenger.This transfer is indeed an earthquake for Arsenal, and it is an earthquake for the whole of Europe.After winning Henry, Rijkaard did not stop his footsteps. He introduced Argentine Gabi Milito from Zaragoza for 1700 million euros, Abidal from Lyon for 1500 million euros, and Côte d'Ivoire midfielder Yaya Toure from Monaco for 1200 million euros.

Barcelona started to move, and their opponent Real Madrid certainly will not be soft-hearted. 3500 million euros brought the Dutchman Arjen Robben from Chelsea, 2700 million brought the Dutchman Sneijder from Ajax, 3000 million took away central defender Pepe from Portugal's Porto team, 1400 million introduced Feyenoord full-back Drenthe, 1250 million took away Argentine defender Heinze from Manchester United, and also bought Argentine striker Saviola in the free market.Liverpool goalkeeper Dudek and German defender Metzelder are only transfers. When it comes to the transfer period, Real Madrid must be what everyone looks forward to.Because Real Madrid is synonymous with big money. Seeing that Real Madrid burns money is definitely much more chic than Barcelona.

Relatively speaking, the Premier League giants are relatively low-key, and even Chelsea, which burns money for fun, is also low-key.Chelsea have hardly invested this season, because the 3500 million that Robben brought them is already enough.They only spent money for three people, 2000 million for the introduction of Malouda, 550 million for the introduction of Barcelona defender Belletti, 200 million for the introduction of left forward Mesley, and some other players came on free transfers.

Arsenal is also relatively low-key. After releasing Henry, they spent a total of 2600 million euros to introduce Sagna, Fabianski and Da Silva.Of course, the transfer of Diarra and Hoyt has not been disclosed, but I believe it will never exceed 2500 million.In addition to spending 3000 million euros on Torres, Liverpool only spent 2900 million on Babel and Lucas.

However, this year's Manchester United seems to be a bit big. They spent 2500 million to win the Brazilian Anderson. They brought Hargreaves from Bayern Munich.

In addition, the transfer of Bayern Munich is also eye-catching. Bundesliga teams rarely spend such a large amount of money.However, this season, Bayern Munich seems to be determined to build a Champions League team. Of course, this is their goal. 1100 million brought in the striker Toni who was in the limelight in the 06 World Cup from Italy, 1200 million brought in the 06 World Cup Golden Boot winner Miroslav Klose, 2500 million brought in the Frenchman Franck Ribery who shined in the 06 World Cup, and 900 million brought in the young German player Jansen.At the same time, he also acquired Altintop and Ze Roberto on the free market.Bayern Munich's transfer is definitely a super big deal on the Bundesliga stage.

Compared with these teams, the stage in Italy is much calmer.Perhaps this is the aftermath of the "Callgate" incident. At the same time, the success of the 06 World Cup also made the Italian team pay more attention to the local Italian players. They did not make much investment.However, this year's summer transfer is indeed an earthquake.Many of the team's top stars, and even the players represented by the team's image, have left their teams to pursue better glory.

Compared with these earthquake-level transfers, Xu Zhou was only slightly shocked.Now he is worrying about his future, Juventus's slimming plan has begun, Vinitucci, Capo, Giovicco, De Cegolie and Tacchinardi and other midfielders who have no place in the team have been thrown away.Many of these are midfielders of the reserve team, which means that Ranieri does not really want to let go of his midfielders. The departure of these people is to make room for some people.In other words, many people in the team may go to the reserve team to wait for opportunities.

This makes Xu Zhou very worried. Among the Juventus midfielders, his qualifications are definitely the worst.And the experience is very minimal, the professional league experience is only a few games.Although his performance in the last season was acceptable and brilliant, but after all, it was in the second division and there were still a few worthless games (the last three games), so Xu Zhou definitely did not have a deep place in Ranieri's heart.

At this time, Robert Hughes came back from Ranieri. The two brothers sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.This atmosphere made Xu Zhou very uncomfortable, perhaps he had already guessed what kind of ending it would be.

"How is it, cousin? What did Mr. Ranieri say?" Xu Zhou raised his head anxiously and asked.

"He said, you are very promising, and he is very optimistic about your future!" Robert Hughes' words made Xu Zhou slightly happy, but then Robert Hughes changed the subject, "However, you are not his No.1 choice now. Moreover, it is hard to say whether you will have a place on the bench!"

Xu Zhou's complexion darkened, and he asked, "Then what does he mean..."

"He means that if you can accept the third substitute or go to the reserve team to wait for the opportunity, the future Juventus will have your chance. Yes, it is the future!" Robert Hughes also smiled bitterly. In the future, who the hell knows what the future will be like!

"Your defensive ability is too poor. It is very difficult for you to have a chance in his team. From his transfer, you can see that defense is definitely the first priority in his team. Even if you are a forward, you must be able to defend. So, a pure offensive player like you is not suitable for his team, you know?" Without waiting for Xu Zhou to speak, Robert Hughes said first.

"Then cousin Yi means that I want to leave here and transfer?" Xu Zhou asked doubtfully.

"No, so far, the Juventus team has no plans to give up on you. However, the team does not have your position now. What they mean is that they want you to go out on loan!!" Robert Hughes said lightly, "And now, no team is willing to pay you 800 million liquidated damages. Of course, if Mr. Deschamps will coach other teams, maybe it will be different!"

"However, the teacher doesn't seem to have any intention of coaching!" Xu Zhou said in a low mood, "Then let's rent it out. I only have one requirement, which is playing time. Cousin, please contact me!"

"Okay, I will contact you. Take a good rest!" Patting Xu Zhou on the shoulder, Robert Hughes got up and left, leaving only Xu Zhou in a daze!
