Levi's goal is Thiago Silva, who is called 'sister-in-law' by fans.

Many people know that Thiago Silva is in AC Milan, but many fans do not know that Thiago Silva was favored by the Portuguese Porto Football Club as early as 2004 due to his outstanding performance in Juventus. , set foot on the European arena.

It's just that the experience in Europe this time can only be described as an ordeal in Silva's memory.

In Porto, Thiago Silva did not get the opportunity to play in the Portuguese Super League. During his stay in Porto, Thiago Silva has been wasting years in the reserve team.

A year later, Thiago Silva was determined to change, and he joined Russia's Dynamo Moscow.

However, not long in Russia, Thiago Silva suffered from tuberculosis and stayed in the hospital for half a year. During this period, Thiago Silva also had the idea of ​​​​retiring.

In 2006, Thiago Silva returned to Brazil and joined Fluminense.

In the 2006-07 season, Thiago Silva performed well and helped the team win the fourth place in the Brazilian National Championship.Throughout the season, the team only conceded 4 goals in 39 rounds of defense. In the same year, the team also won the Brazilian Cup.

2007-08赛季，球队联赛仅排名第14位。不过球队在南美解放者杯中一路过关斩将杀入决赛。可惜在点球决战（两回合双方战成5-5）中，球队以1-3败于厄瓜多尔的基多大学而屈居亚军。

At this time, European clubs have begun to notice this Brazilian defender (24 years old), who is not young anymore, but their offer has not met Fluminense's psychological expectations.

Li Wei, who came to Brazil with a lot of money in hand, did not have such a problem. He opened his mouth with an offer of 1000 million euros.

Fluminense had no way to refuse such a price, and agreed to the transfer very readily.

At this time, a new problem has arisen. Thiago Silva may not be able to play for Manchester City.

why?
This has to talk about the Premier League labor certification issue that has made countless head coaches hate it.

The Premier League has such a rule since 1999. In order to ensure the quality of the league and restrict foreign staff, the Football Association stipulates that players from non-EU member states who want to play in England must first apply for a labor permit, unless the player holds an EU passport.

However, the application conditions for this labor certificate are very strict. If you want to apply for a labor certificate, you need to meet one of the three criteria: 1. The national team FIFA ranks in the top 50, and the player's national football appearance rate within two years is >75%.

2. Have recently played in other mainstream European leagues, preferably the Champions League and Europa League.

3. Special application can be made for the transfer fee higher than 75% of the same period.

Moreover, the labor certification is not a once-and-for-all process, and it needs to be reviewed every year. The standard for the review is the number of games played for the club, which must reach 80% of the total number of games that can be played.The total number of games that can be played is excluding the number of games that cannot be played due to factors such as injuries and suspensions.

Although players without a labor certificate can still join the team, they cannot participate in official competitions (league, cup, European competitions), but can only participate in reserve leagues, friendly matches, etc.

Because of this labor certification problem, the Premier League missed many talented players, such as Ronaldinho, Kaka, etc. It is said that they should all go to the Premier League.

So when Ferguson and other head coaches took the lead in protesting, the FA introduced a policy again in 2003-the special talent clause.

The special talent clause requires the player to prove his ability in other European leagues, prepare his materials and provide a favorable reference, and then hold a hearing.

The club applies to the Ministry of Labor to hold a hearing. The Ministry of Labor will select a 6-member jury for different labor certification application cases. After listening to the club’s statement, the Ministry of Labor will decide whether to issue a labor certification.

Levi hadn't paid attention to this matter before, and he discovered this big oolong when he faxed Thiago Silva's transfer information to Manchester City.

Now Li Wei can only ask the club to help apply for a labor certificate.

Although Thiago Silva has no appearance record, and has no recent appearance experience in mainstream leagues, his transfer fee complies with Article [-].

Even so, it is hard to say whether the application can be made.

As for the special genius clause, to put it bluntly, it depends on the connections.In addition to the officials of the FA, the six-member jury also includes the head coaches of the Premier League clubs, usually those old-fashioned head coaches.

As long as the connections are in place, these managers say that this player can do it, and those FA bureaucrats usually agree.

But what connections did Levi have in England?
The one who is a little familiar is the old man Ferguson, but unfortunately the relationship between the two parties is not very good, let alone Levi took away the Champions League that originally belonged to Manchester United.Just the war of words between the two sides before the game and the identity of the head coach of Manchester City, the arch-enemy in the same city, were enough to make Ferguson hostile to Levi, let alone let Ferguson come to help, thank God he didn't mess with Levi.

…………

For this trip to Brazil, Levi was planning to purchase two to four South American players. However, because of this damn labor certification issue, Levi had to give up his trip to South America.

Levi was very unhappy when he left. This time, he was planning to buy South American stars such as Suarez and Coutinho.

However, because of this damn labor certification issue, he can only fly back to Europe to buy people.

Li Wei had just returned to Europe, and dealt with three more transfers, not buying, but selling.

The team's right back Srna returned to his old club Shakhtar Donetsk for 500 million euros.

From the beginning of the 2007-2008 season, Srna was slowly squeezed out of the main position by Macho, and the number of appearances was not many at the beginning, which also made the Croatian star start to move his mind to leave.

It just so happened that since Srna left for the Ukrainian Super League Shakhtar Donetsk team, the team's right wing has become their fatal shortcoming. For this reason, the team did not hesitate to spend 500 million euros to re-buy Srna.

Inter Milan, which Mourinho took over, immediately chased Gerrard, but the loyal Gerrard obviously chose to stay in the Red Army Liverpool.Mourinho chose to pursue Motta instead, for which he offered 300 million euros plus a floating bonus of 200 million. You must know that Parma only paid 150 million euros in order to get Motta a year ago. transfer fee.

Mourinho's offer is enough to make Parma ten times the profit in one year!

Most importantly, Motta himself wants to leave.

Compared with the small city of Parma, the football giants Inter Milan are naturally more able to attract players.

The third transfer was Manchester City's. Forward Bianchi moved to Serie A Torino for 700 million euros.

This Italian striker was not in the scope of Li Wei's cleaning. Bianchi performed well in Serie A. In the 2006-2007 season, he played 0.5 times in the Reggina team and scored [-] goals. The average efficiency of [-] goals per game is not enough. High, but still considered excellent.

For this reason, he was acquired by Manchester City for 2007 million euros in 880. In the 2007-2008 season, he played 27 times for Manchester City and scored six goals. In the second half of the season, he was loaned to Lazio, played seventeen times and scored four goals.Although the efficiency has dropped significantly compared to last season, it can be regarded as a good substitute striker.

But Bianchi himself was not happy in England. In order to transfer and leave, he even called Levi himself.

Seeing that the opponent's attitude is so firm, and Bianchi is not a big star, Li Wei will naturally not force it. Seeing that the Torino team's offer is almost there, he also agreed to this transfer.
