Stand by the last line of defense

Chapter 105 Winter transfer
Popovich thought for a moment and said. "Elder Costa is worthy of our training. Nani, if he can play like the 07-08 season, our club will usher in a giant. But if he continues the state of last season, he His performance is not worthy of his worth, and we will lose money!"

Valdano said dissatisfied. "Now we are not discussing what will happen if we buy them? It's about whether we should take the risk to buy them!"

Popovich looked at Valdano and said. "If you have a better choice, I have no problem. But if not, then we have no choice but to rent them, at least deal with them first, see their performance, and decide whether to buy them next year!"

"Okay! I will discuss cooperation with these Chinese companies! Then see how many sponsors we can have this time, and whether we want to buy two of them at once!" Valdano picked up the documents and said.

"Remember, get Joaquin's affairs done first, even if you want to introduce Nani and Herder Costa. We can't be completely led by Mendes!"

"I see!" Valdano nodded.

Generally, it is the person in charge of the company who comes to the Aragon Autonomous Region to discuss cooperation with the Zaragoza Club.

But time is running out now, and Valdano really has no time to wait.

He brought a briefcase, an assistant, and a translator and hurried to Huaxia to discuss cooperation with those companies that were interested in sponsoring.

In one week, Valdano traveled thousands of miles, successively visited several big cities including Yangcheng, Pengcheng, and Modu, and reached agreements with six companies including Huawei and Haier.

Generally, a three-year cooperation agreement has been reached with these companies at a price of 200 to 500 million euros.

Six companies including Huawei and Haier sponsored Zaragoza.

The Zaragoza club printed their advertisements on the jersey arms, the rolling billboards around the stadium, and the huge walls outside the arena, which started the popularity of these companies in Spain.

Just when Valdano urgently negotiated with several clubs in China.

On January 2015, 1, Zaragoza will play away against Leganes.

Leganes still dealt with Zaragoza with the tactic of placing the bus.

After the whole game, Zaragoza completed 25 shots, of which only 10 shots were within the range of the goal frame.

But that's it, still can't get a goal.

Zheng Long participated in the team's last offensive opportunity during stoppage time in the first half, but this time it was not as good as the previous one.

The ball flew straight up!
0 to 0, Zaragoza harvested a draw.

From No.4 in the league, it fell back to No. 6.

Popovich couldn't sit still anymore, he called Valdano directly. "The transfer must be done as soon as possible! Immediately! Immediately!"

Just signed a cooperation agreement with Haier, and soon the sponsor's first sponsorship fee will be transferred to the account.

With money in his pocket, Valdano also became proud. "No problem! You can see the players you want soon!"

On January 1, Zaragoza announced through its official website that it had signed the 20-year-old former Spanish international Joaquin Sanchez Rodriguez from Fiorentina, and the two sides signed a three-year contract.

Joaquin is 34 years old and doesn't have much fuel in the tank.Zaragoza wants to sign Joaquin, and Florence certainly has no objection.

Without much discussion, Florence sold Joaquin to Zaragoza for 150 million euros.

In the past few games, Zaragoza had problems with the offense and was tied by the opponent.

The winter transfer period has already started, but there has been no movement from Zaragoza.

This made the fans anxious. They protested on the website and at the club.

Just as the fans were considering whether to go to Valdano's home to surround him, the announcement on the official website immediately aroused fierce reactions from Zaragoza fans.

"Joaquin? That Flying Wing from Valencia back then? He was very good at that time, but he is too old now! How old is he? He is 34 years old. Can he still run?"

"It should be okay! His performance in Florence is not bad! He proved himself in La Liga back then!"

"But how much longer can he run? Can he last until the end of the season?"

"That's true. Damn Valdano, we need a young and dynamic winger. Come to attack the opponent's defense and help the team!"

"That's right. We need players with impact. A veteran can't solve the team's current dilemma!"

……

It hasn't waited for the fans to recover from the news of Joaquin's joining.

On January 1, Zaragoza announced successively through the official website.

The team has reached an agreement with Benfica to rent Elder Costa, and the two parties signed a one-year contract.

The team has reached an agreement with Manchester United to rent Nani, and the two sides signed a one-year contract.

As soon as these two pieces of information were announced, the fans who were dissatisfied immediately seemed to be celebrating the new year.

Happy!excited!
"I thought that Valdano guy was going to mess up the team's efforts this season again. It turns out he is holding back his big move!"

"Three wingers were brought in at once, what a great deal!"

"Haha...With Joaquin and Nani, the team's offensive dilemma is solved at once! The next game is worth looking forward to!"

"It's too early to be happy. Joaquin is too old, and Nani's style may not be suitable for Zaragoza. As for the young player Elder Costa, I'm afraid it's just for training, and he won't be able to help him in a short time." To the team!"

……

Zaragoza's move to introduce three wingers in one go has attracted great attention from the Spanish media.

"Marca" wrote that Zaragoza realized that there was a problem with the team's offense, so he successively introduced three wingers, Joaquin, Nani, and Elder Costa.

In theory, they all combine Zaragoza's needs, Joaquin's experience, Nani's impact, and Costa's vitality.

But whether they can be used well is a great test of Popovich's coaching ability.

"Daily Sports Daily" also commented.

After being drawn by opponents in a row, in order to solve the disadvantages of offense, Zaragoza, like a patient in a hurry to heal, completely ignored it and introduced 3 wingers in one breath.

Whether it can help the team will not be discussed for the time being. Now there are 26 first-line players in Zaragoza.Then they actually cleaned up those redundant players, who will be sold!Algeria has been dissatisfied with sitting on the bench, he should be the most likely to be cleared...

However, as the "Daily Sports Daily" said, after the introduction of 3 players, Zaragoza has as many as 26 first-line players and needs to lose weight.

Algeria, who had been clamoring for a transfer, was sent away for a mere 30 euros.

In order to meet the regulations, the team promoted a young player O. Wally from the youth team.

In response to the next game, Popovich chose to keep Doka and sent midfielder Romero to Huelva for 50 euros.

At the same time, two substitute players, N. Insa and A. Diero, were also sent away!

When Valdano lost weight, Zheng Long hosted a banquet in his villa for Mendes, Nani and Costa!
It's just that the atmosphere is not so good!
Zheng Long smiled on his face, but the hand holding the knife and fork was full of blue veins!
