Levi thought at the transfer committee that instead of introducing Aquilani, who is still recuperating and has had many injuries in recent years, it is better to introduce an experienced and healthy player.

He recommended two people, namely Motta, his old subordinate, and Italian Daniele De Rossi from the same club as Aquilani.

Benitez was very dissatisfied with Levi's recommendation. He thought Aquilani was "the most suitable and only" choice.

For this reason, Benitez tried to forcefully pass the bill to buy Aquilani on the transfer committee, but Levi had already successfully persuaded the commercial director Al to stand on his side. There were four votes against the question, and only Benitez, general manager, Paslow, and chief scout Eduardo Macia voted in favor.

After the vote failed, Levi said sincerely: "You should believe in my vision. Levi's ability to dig talents is recognized in European football. I don't know why you insist that I am wrong to deny Aquilani. where?"

Benitez said angrily: "Your vision is not wrong, but your heart is wrong! You are just fighting for the transfer power! Liverpool will ruin him sooner or later because of your internal fighting!"

Then Benitez turned around and left, leaving only a generous but inevitably somewhat bleak back to everyone in the meeting room.

The conflict between Li Wei and Benitez broke out. I don’t know who was exposed to the media. This made the fans worry about the future of the club.But soon a piece of news diverted the attention of Liverpool fans to other places-Michael James Owen joined Manchester United on a free transfer!
Michael James Owen is certainly no stranger to Liverpool fans.

Michael James Owen used to be as proud of Liverpool fans as Gerrard, and even Michael James Owen's reputation among the fans surpassed Gerrard.

He is a player from Liverpool's youth training and is regarded by Liverpool fans as the club's "son".

Owen did not live up to the fans' expectations and love for him. On May 1997, 5, in the Premier League game between Liverpool and Wimbledon, Owen, who was 6 years old and 17 days old, made his professional league debut for the first time. Liverpool lost the game 143-1, but Irving scored a goal in the first Premier League game, becoming the youngest player and youngest scorer in Liverpool's history, and has since embarked on his career as a super striker .

In the second season, the 1997-1998 season, Owen played 36 times in the league for Liverpool Club and scored [-] goals.This data allowed Owen to join Dion Dublin and Christopher Sutton to win the title of the Premier League's top scorer that season, and Owen became the youngest Golden Boot winner in Premier League history.

In the third season, the 1998-1999 season, Owen scored 40 goals in 23 games, including 30 goals in 18 Premier League games.This number of goals allowed Owen to once again win the title of top scorer in the Premier League (tied with Jimmy Hasselbaink and Dwight Yorke).At the end of the season, Owen was named the Sports Personality of the Year by the BBC.

2000-2001赛季，利物浦完成了五冠王（联赛杯、足总杯、欧洲联盟杯、社区盾杯和欧洲超级杯）的伟业，其中欧文功不可没。欧文在英超联赛的28场比赛中一共打进16球，11场联盟杯比赛打进4球，7场杯赛（联赛杯、足总杯）打进3球，6场超级杯比赛打进3球。

At the same time, in the FA Cup final, Owen scored twice in the last 10 minutes to help Liverpool overtake Arsenal.

In the UEFA Cup final against Alaves, Owen not only created a penalty kick, but also assisted Steven Gerrard to score.

In the Community Shield final, Owen's goal helped Liverpool beat Manchester United 2:1 to win the championship.

In the European Super Cup final, Owen helped Liverpool beat Bayern with one pass and one shot.In 2001, Irving beat Real Madrid's Raul Gonzalez and Bayern's Oliver Kahn in the selection of the European Footballer of the Year.

It's a pity that all the good things turned into beautiful bubbles in 2004.

In August 2004, after the contract negotiations between Owen and Liverpool Club broke down, he transferred to Real Madrid at a low price of 8 million pounds.

要知道在2004年8月离开利物浦前，欧文共为红军出场267次打进158个进球。更获得了金球奖先生！居然才职一千200万英镑？

For this reason, Owen caused the anger of many fans when he left, but from Levi's point of view, this is also understandable. At that time, Liverpool had not ushered in a revival, and Real Madrid's appeal was unparalleled.

However, this time after Owen's contract with Newcastle expired, he chose to join Manchester United because of his high salary, which made Liverpool fans unacceptable.

This is the mortal enemy Manchester United!

A player who has become an iconic Liverpool player joined Manchester United, and you can imagine the damage to Liverpool fans.

…………

Under this pressure, the fans are eager for the team to make big signings, which is exciting.

Levi also had to meet the demands of Benitez and the fans to get England international Glenn Johnson from the relegated Portsmouth for a high price of 700 million pounds.

As for the choice of the midfielder, Benitez finally negotiated with Levi and chose to buy the Roman midfielder Daniele De Rossi to replace Alonso.

It's just a pity that for various reasons, Levi was not able to win Daniele De Rossi for Liverpool.

On the one hand, players are reluctant to leave their hometown team and live in another environment.

On the other hand, the Roma Football Club is asking for a high price. The Roma Football Club stated that Chelsea had offered Daniele De Rossi 7000 million euros, and Liverpool would have to pick up 6000 million euros to take Daniele away. De Rossi.

Regardless of whether Daniele De Rossi is worth the price, it is impossible for Liverpool's current finances to allow them to pick up 6000 million euros to buy someone.

In the end, Benitez reluctantly agreed to the club's signing of Parma player Motta.

For being able to play in his mentor's team, Mota immediately nodded in agreement.

Although Parma wanted to ask for a high transfer fee, after Li Wei said that he could give up the 50.00% transfer share he received from Motta's transfer, the Parma club also took the initiative to significantly reduce the transfer fee.

In the end, Parma's main midfielder Motta came to Anfield Stadium at a low price of 550 million euros.
