Chapter 149: The transfer turmoil resurgence - gossip

In fact, I can't blame Lowery for putting his posture so low in such a nasty way, so that he lost all the morals of a wealthy club.Rather, he knew that Professor Wenger valued Li Zihan, and Li Zihan's ability and potential seemed to this professional scout to be a shining gold mine.

And if he was one step ahead of all the clubs and used such a low termination fee of 200 million to deceive the other party. No, if he signed in, then this attractive gold mine would be his own.

Lowery is not the manager of the club, so he doesn't know Li Zihan's commercial value.But he is clear about the value in terms of competition. He is still a little uncertain about Li Zihan's future progress, but judging from Li Zihan's current performance and Wenger's ability in cultivating young people, the second Van Persie is no problem.

So to sum up, this is why there is such a low-profile chief scout for the giants.Although domestic fans often ridicule Arsenal as a "four-maniac", there is no doubt that no one denies the fact that Arsenal is also a giant.

When he felt that the prelude was almost done, Lowery started talking about the main things behind.

He resolutely said familiarly: "You know, Li. In fact, the head coach of our club, Mr. Wenger, is very optimistic about you, and he has been paying attention to you. He often said that if you were in our Arsenal, we would definitely He is the favorite to win the Premier League title. And you and Arsenal must have a bright prospect in the future. You must know that Mr. Wenger is second to none in Europe in terms of teaching young players. He can make a perfect training plan for you And exercise opportunities, instead of using you excessively, overdrawing your potential. He will train you to become one of the world's top players and a strong contender for the Golden Globe Award. You don't have to doubt your potential and Wenger's vision and ability ,What do you think?"

Li Zihan almost laughed out loud when he heard the last sentence, he thought the other party would say "Yuanfang, what do you think?"
Li Zihan smiled shyly: "I believe in Mr. Wenger, and I also believe in myself. I have always respected Professor Wenger. Fans in my country like to call Mr. Wenger a professor. Sorry, this is not European. That kind of ironic meaning, but the meaning of complete reverence."

Li Zihan knows that in the European football circle, some professionals call Wenger a professor, which is actually a bit ironic.

When Lowery heard this, he secretly thought there was a door.Then he said while the iron was hot: "In fact, Arsenal Club and Juventus Club have made a transfer request. We have already met Juventus' minimum termination fee requirements for you. Now it mainly depends on your thoughts. If you are also interested Then we can go straight to the contract and you will be an Arsenal player from next month."

Li Zihan said in surprise: "Huh? I didn't say that I want to transfer to Arsenal. In fact, I have no intention of leaving Juventus at the moment. I don't know what the club thinks, but I have no intention of leaving. .”

Lowery was in a hurry: "Salary and signing fee are easy to talk about. What do you think about the annual salary of 200 million euros? You must know that for players of your age, no club's annual salary will be higher than this amount. And in Arsenal You will receive systematic training and lay a solid foundation for you. Your future will be infinitely broad, instead of overdrawing your potential at Juventus."

Lowery knew that Arsenal did not have much advantage in salary, so while directly giving the maximum salary, he also expressed how Arsenal valued Li Zihan. In his opinion, Arsenal and Wenger It is the "Bole" in the eyes of young European players.

Li Zihan still flatly refused: "I'm really sorry, I really don't have the idea of ​​leaving Juventus. The head coach Conte is very good to me, and I don't think this is overdrawing my potential. The current performance is my goal. Ability."

In order not to offend the other party, Li Zihan continued: "The annual salary is really not a problem. I just rejected the club's 180 million annual salary renewal contract. I don't think the salary is low, I just feel that I just signed a contract. Soon, it is not suitable to sign a second contract at such a fast time. And what I need is more opportunities to practice games, especially important events, not domestic cups and youth team league games."

Li Zihan revealed that this meant that I did not renew my contract with the club, so my 200 million termination fee is still valid.As far as I am concerned, I have no intention of leaving, but I may not always stay in Juventus.Maybe we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.

Obviously, Lowery is also a smart person. Hearing Li Zihan's words and Juventus club manager Marotta's search for forwards, he can roughly understand.

Li Zihan really doesn't want to transfer now, but if the club pushes too fast and can't meet Li Zihan's request to play, then he will have to transfer at that time.

And Li Zihan rejected Juventus's new contract, keeping the 200 million release clause is tantamount to telling the other party that if I want to transfer in the future, the price will not be too high, at least the minimum release fee is placed here Marotta Neither can hinder the parties.

Lowery is right to think so, since the other party has said something, saying more will not help the matter.Instead, he said generously: "It's okay, we fully respect your wishes. But Arsenal's door is always open to you, and I look forward to our next meeting soon."

And Lowery also replied to Li Zihan, saying that Arsenal will not give up.If you are unhappy at Juventus in the future, even if you come to Arsenal, the things you talked about before are still valid.

Li Zihan thanked the other party for his attention, and finally said: "Thank you for the dinner, it was really delicious. We enjoyed our meal, so that's it for tonight, thank you again for the invitation."

Lowery said with a smile: "You're welcome, I'm glad you can have dinner with me, a bad old man, I hope you have a good night."

In the end, the three of Li Zihan got up and shook hands with Lowery to say goodbye.

Only Susu's stinky mouth curled up when she left, revealing that "Miss Ben was very unhappy after eating." As for the reason for her unhappiness, it was naturally that the white-haired old man on the opposite side didn't order ice cream. Miss, it seems that it is not sincere to invite her to dinner without ordering ice cream.

I don't even remember that he didn't invite her, a brat, to dinner, but she insisted on following Li Zihan's children's shoes to eat and drink.
The next day, many Italian newspapers showed their powerful intelligence capabilities.

News spread that Li Zihan had dinner with Arsenal's chief scout.

"Gazzetta dello Sport": "Shocking!! The new Juventus star secretly contacted the staff of the Premier League club."

"Corriere dello Sport": "The substitute boy is dissatisfied with Juventus' new contract and intends to switch to Premier League Arsenal."

"Italian Football": "The wolf is coming, and the Premier League has also come to Serie A to pick the fruit."

etc.
Of course, Sanchez will not miss this opportunity to hit Li Zihan and Juventus, and he will come to "join in the fun" soon.

I don't know where he got a picture of Li Zihan and Lowery shaking hands after dinner.The article in his column said: "It is reported that Juventus's hot new star, Chinese player Li Zihan, has reached an agreement with the Premier League Arsenal and will transfer to the Premier League. The annual salary will be as high as 250 million euros , more than his teammate Pogba's annual salary of 100 million."

"According to gossip, this is not the first time Arsenal has contacted Li Zihan. Arsenal had already contacted Li Zihan privately in September, but the two sides have not reached a consensus on the issue of treatment. But With Li Zihan's series of performances, Arsenal finally couldn't sit still. They hoped to sign the star of hope in their eyes as soon as possible, and they had offered Li Zihan three times during the winter transfer period. But Juventus were not satisfied The transfer offer given by the other party, and now Arsenal have directly given the minimum release clause in Li Zihan's contract, which is about 200 million euros."

"And this secret meeting between Li Zihan and Arsenal's chief scout Steve Lowery was also a joint discussion on personal contract questions and answers. Looking at the expressions of both parties, it is not difficult to guess that both parties are also very concerned about the result of this joint discussion. Very satisfied."

Everything was said in a clear and orderly manner, and it was only a matter of the two sides officially announcing that they had transferred.

Fans of other teams kept commenting on the Internet with the intention of watching the excitement, and they all supported Li Zihan to go to London.Most of them are fans of AC Milan, Inter Milan, Naples and Arsenal
And the Lazio fans who had just been "disrupted" by Li Zihan shouted "Arsenal welcomes you, Li!"

Obviously, they don't like this "time bomb" staying in Juventus, because maybe the next time the team faces Juventus, they will be beaten and killed when they replace Li Zihan in the lead.

Just as fans of Nottingham Forest and Bayern Munich don't like Solskjaer, fans of several other Serie A teams don't like Li Zihan either.Because they don't like the feeling of being killed.
The Juventus fans are very anxious, they don't want Li Zihan, a young player with potential, to be sold.They have expressed their dissatisfaction with the club's inability to retain outstanding young players on the club's official website, and have called on the club to make rescues as soon as possible.

Said that a club without ambitions would do such a stupid thing, and a giant like Juventus should keep its excellent youth training products.It is undoubtedly the best wish of every fan to win the championship with their own youth players.
