i want to be king

Chapter 638 Times have changed!

Manchester City's official website officially announced that the club has terminated the negotiations to acquire Kaka.

Soon, Manchester City technical director Begiristain said in an interview with the media that Manchester City was very close to Kaka, and the two sides even basically reached an agreement, but Kaka finally chose the latter between moving to Manchester City and staying in Milan.

"We regret this very much, but we can only respect it." Begiristain regretted.

Subsequently, the Sun broke the news about the entire transfer process. Manchester City's offer has been approved by AC Milan, the Rossoneri has agreed to sell Kaka, and Kaka's agent and father also agreed to the personal treatment contract given by Manchester City.

That is to say, the whole transfer depends on Kaka's personal opinion and signature.

But Kaka overturned all the previous achievements in the end, and he chose to stay in AC Milan.

Berlusconi believes that this is a victory for values.

"Kaka wants to stay more. He doesn't feel that he has missed an opportunity to get a higher salary. He wants to be the standard bearer of Milan. In the past two days, he has felt the love from the fans, so he chose to stay!"

The whole city of Milan, and even Milan fans all over the world, are cheering for Kaka's choice.

He gave up the temptation of a high salary and resolutely stayed in Milan.

……

Su Dong, who had just returned to Munich from Donaueschingen, was surprised by such a result.

Everyone can see that AC Milan's prospects are not ideal.

Not only the Rossoneri, but the entire Serie A league is going downhill at a high speed.

Among other things, let’s just say that after the Calciopoli incident, after Juventus was relegated, there was a serious loss of players. Teams such as Inter Milan and Roma benefited a lot from this, but they did not take advantage of the trend to take over from Juventus, and their performance in the Champions League has always been tepid.

Facts have proved that at the club management level, the entire Serie A, yes, including AC Milan's Galliani and others, are far from Juventus.

With the slump of the phone door, coupled with the sluggishness of the Serie A youth training, in the next few years, what will the Serie A team use to compete with the Premier League, La Liga, and even the Bundesliga?

At least, there is no such hope for teams such as AC Milan, Inter Milan and Roma.

Juventus has been hit hard, and the management has been greatly restructured, and there is no clue for the time being.

In this general environment, Su Dong does not think that Kaka will give up Manchester City's high salary and choose to stay with AC Milan.

The only explanation is as the Spanish media guessed, Florentino shot.

The former chairman of Real Madrid, who is getting louder and louder, is still hiding it so far. He has always been unwilling to announce his candidacy. He just let the media reporters and fans guess, which also made his voice louder and louder.

The clumsiness of Calderon and Mijatovic made everyone clearly feel Florentino's level, especially the existence of such a bad Barcelona management, which set off Florentino's incomparable wisdom.

There is a saying that is true, there is no harm without comparison.

If Florentino wants to return to Real Madrid and bring back superstars, then Kaka is undoubtedly the easiest to achieve.

As soon as Su Dong returned to Munich from Donaueschingen, and as soon as he returned to Greenwald's home, Ma Dawei came to the door and told him about this incident, and at the same time told him another shocking story that had not yet been exposed by the media.

After Manchester City missed Kaka, they turned around and attacked Barcelona midfielder Iniesta.

"Begiristan has officially notified the Barcelona management that Manchester City is willing to pay [-] million euros to acquire Iniesta." Ma Dawei was a little surprised, and his voice trembled when he said these words.

That's [-] million euros!
Converted into RMB, that is one billion!

This is simply an astronomical sum.

Su Dong wouldn't be as surprised as Ma Dawei, because he signed with Bayern every year, and the signing fee was 3000 million euros. After all, the signing fee he got from Bayern was almost [-] million euros, but he paid it in installments.

Even, to some extent, Su Dong is more favorable because he has always been a free agent.

If he really wants to transfer and is willing to sign a long-term contract, how much is the signing fee?

"Did Barcelona reply?" Su Dong asked.

"Not yet, but you probably won't refuse, right?" Ma Dawei guessed.

With the current financial situation of Barcelona, ​​it is definitely a good deal to sell Iniesta in exchange for a large transfer fee.

reject?

is it possible?

"For a membership system like Barcelona, ​​money has never been an issue, the key is votes." Su Dong analyzed.

Why did Russell and Bartomeu do everything possible, even embezzling public funds, to allow Su Dong to transfer freely?
From a monetary point of view, Barcelona suffered a big loss.

But the disadvantage is that Barcelona, ​​Russell and Bartomeu stopped the loss in time.

Even up to now, they haven't officially announced Su Dong's real transfer process to the outside world. They only revealed that Su Dong bought out his contract with money, and how much and how he paid is kept secret.

In fact, only Su Dong and a very small number of people knew that he never paid a dime at all.

Where did the money received by Barcelona come from?
You have to ask Russell and Bartomeu about this.

The opposition Laporta has repeatedly asked for the release of the accounts, but will they take care of him?
Now, Barcelona is in full swing, leading the standings, and the fans are happy. Who cares about this?
"Do you think Iniesta is worth [-] million?" Ma Dawei asked with concern.

Su Dong nodded, "It's worth it, and it's worth it."

"Then according to what you say, Barcelona will definitely not sell it."

"No, Barcelona may not recognize the value of Iniesta. I guess Guardiola should be more inclined to get Iniesta instead of Kaka. It's just that Barcelona fans are willing to sell Iniesta?"

Both Harvey and Iniesta are from Barcelona's local youth training. For Catalan fans who have always been xenophobic, it can be said that they are very popular. Can money buy it?

In fact, if Iniesta cannot be bought, Su Dong thinks that Valencia's David Silva is also quite good, but I don't know if Guardiola and Manchester City have noticed it.

David Silva used to be Su Dong's little follower. Su Dong was very familiar with him and knew the kid's strength and potential. He has basically played at a level now, but because of Valencia's platform, he is not as eye-catching as Iniesta, Harvey and others. In terms of strength, David Silva is definitely world-class.

Of course, Su Dong would not recommend David Silva to Manchester City, he just vaguely noticed some signs.

If it is said that Abramovich's entry into Chelsea is just the beginning, then now, as more and more foreign capital enters the field, especially as local tyrants from the Middle East with good money enter Manchester City, the pattern of European football will also undergo earth-shaking changes.

Of course, this change is more for the club, and it will test the club's operational ability and signing level even more.

But for players, it may not be a good thing.

In professional football, how many people really come here for honor?
To put it bluntly, it is a job to support the family.

As a worker, even if he was already the best among them, Su Dong still didn't intend to consider these things for the club.

He just cares about what he wants.

…………

…………

Su Dong's guess was not wrong at all.

The news that Manchester City offered [-] million euros to acquire Iniesta caused an uproar in the Catalonia region immediately after it was reported by the media.

Although Iniesta is not a native of Catalonia, he is a direct descendant of Barcelona's youth training and is also regarded as his own.

Barcelona fans are not willing to sell their youth training for money, and are even doing everything possible to call on the club to buy back youth training players, such as Gerard Pique who has returned, and Cesc Fabregas who played for Arsenal.

In this case, how can Barcelona be willing to sell Iniesta?
Even the fans, in turn, bombarded Soriano and Begiristan, thinking that these two former Barcelona executives started poaching Barcelona's corner after they went to Manchester City, which can be said to be traitors.

Protests from the media and fans, Barcelona also quickly responded, immediately held a press conference to say that the club has rejected the poaching from Manchester City, announcing that Iniesta is not for sale of the team and will not be sold.

Manchester City's two earthquake-level signings both died prematurely, but the earthquake they caused still continues in European football.

Everyone clearly felt that with the entry of Manchester City, the rules of the game are quietly changing.

Times have changed!

……

As the winter break transfer window draws to a close, the second half of the Bundesliga has also reignited the flames of war.

The first to start is the third knockout round of the German Cup.

Bayern away to Stuttgart.

Stuttgart performed very badly this season. After the first half of the game, they only ranked tenth in the Bundesliga. The head coach Aminfei was fired due to poor performance and was replaced by assistant coach Marcus Babel.

During the winter break, Stuttgart entered and exited twice. Instead of spending money, they also earned nearly a million euros. It is clear that this team does not have much ambition. At the same time, it is somewhat giving up the cup and focusing on the league.

Therefore, in the third round of the German Cup, when Bayern played the main force and played away against Stuttgart, the home team was suppressed in a panic. Only 4 minutes into the game, Su Dong planned an attack in the frontcourt, and Robben scored a goal for Bayern.

Two minutes later, Su Dong personally assisted Franck Ribery to score.

Subsequently, Bayern launched a round of onslaught against Stuttgart, Su Dong, Arjen Robben and Schweinsteiger all scored consecutively.

In the end, Bayern beat Stuttgart [-]-[-] in the away game and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.

It can be said that the smoothness of this game far exceeded the expectations of everyone in Bayern. Stuttgart has obviously given up the German Cup strategically.

Due to the main force in the German Cup, Bayern had to rotate in the Bundesliga No.18 round on the weekend.

Going north to Hamburg to challenge the Bundesliga North King, Bayern firmly took the initiative, but failed to break through Hamburg's goal. Instead, they were attacked by the opponent in stoppage time in the first half and lost [-]-[-] away.

This is also Bayern's first defeat in the Bundesliga this season.

The entire German football world breathed a sigh of relief.

Seventeen-game winning streak Bayern finally lost!
