Chapter 379 Summer of 2012

Bayern Munich is a Bundesliga club.

It is no surprise that the Bundesliga is the most stringent in the financial review of various clubs in Europe. Coupled with the "50+1" policy (more than 50% of the team's shares must be held by membership-based fan clubs), foreign capital This will undoubtedly keep the team's composition pure, but it also restricts the Bundesliga clubs from being able to spend a lot of money like the giants in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A-otherwise, with the backing of the Volkswagen Group, Wolfsburg How could it be so miserable?

There is no doubt that Bayern is very rich, and their signings often break Bundesliga records, such as Klose, Gomez and Longster, but looking at their transfer windows in recent years, Hoeness and Beckenbauer Still can't get rid of the style of careful calculation and careful planning.

Their transfers tend to have a pattern: if they spend a lot of money in the first year, it is difficult to see any big moves in the second year, and even sell some good role players to reduce the pressure on the salary budget. ...

Sure enough, Bayern's first signing did not bring any surprises to the fans: they got the 31-year-old goalkeeper Stark from Hoffenheim for almost free...

The second deal is also coming soon: Bremen's main striker, 33-year-old Peruvian veteran Pizarro free transfer to Bayern.

In contrast, Olić, Usami Takashi, Peterson, and Planic all left the team as substitute players, plus the retired goalkeeper Bout, and the defender Breno who was sentenced for arson, Bayern's first-team lineup Six players were missing in just a few days.

These people are all unable to play in the team. Even if the contract has not expired, it is not too high value. Bayern simply don't want a penny, let them leave for free, and maybe they can talk about it with the new club. A nice contract.

In addition to introducing free players and cleaning up the old, weak, sick and disabled, Bayern has also tapped some talents from its own echelon: forward Werauch in the youth academy was promoted to the first team, and reserve team captain Emre Can also entered They are all under the age of 20, representing the excellent youth training results of the Bayern club. In time, they may become the next Ram, Schweinsteiger or Muller.

After entering June, Bayern spent another 50 euros to poach the local teenager Wei Ze from Cologne as a supplementary candidate for the wing.

But such a mild signing is obviously not enough to satisfy the fans. After all, the league runner-up Borussia Dortmund spent 1700 million to buy the No.2 best player of last season, Rocket Royce. Bayern wants to strengthen itself How can hundreds of thousands of small businesses achieve this goal?

Under the urging of Hoeness and Rummenigge, Nellinger accelerated his signings.

470 million introduced Royce's teammate and Brazilian defender Dante from Borussia Borussia, and finally added a general to his stretched defense line-the reason why the 28-year-old Dante is not worth high is not because he is not strong. It's because his contract is about to expire. In fact, he has played well on the defensive end and has been an important contributor to Borussia's unexpected top four and Champions League qualification.

1100 million signed in Switzerland Messi, 20-year-old Shaqiri, this small player can play all positions in the forward, which also means that he can also play the role of Longchute, Robben, Ribery, Muller Four substitutes.

1300 million signed Croatian striker Mandzukic from Wolfsburg. Gomez, who played almost all games last season, finally has a competitor who threatens his main position...

But after these players, Bayern's action stopped again, and they were not without goals-Athletic Bilbao's Spanish midfielder Javi Martinez had long been included in the list by Neringer , but the other party insisted on paying a liquidated damages of up to 4000 million, which made the entire Bayern club in trouble.

Everyone knows that Bayern's absolute core, Long Shute, joined Bayern as the Champions League champion, and only spent 3000 million (although there is a secondary sales clause), if he really bought it forcibly with a transfer fee that broke the Bundesliga record. Hama, he will become the most valuable player in the Bayern team, so... what will guys like Longshut, Robben, Ribery, and Gomez think?
Another more troublesome reason is that Martinez is just a defensive player. He didn't win a decent championship in Bilbao, and he was just a substitute in the Spanish national team...Why is he so expensive?

Until the end of the European Cup, Bayern finally gave up their plan to introduce Martinez this season. If possible, they will consider this signing again during the winter break or next season.

Martinez's defensive ability is excellent, but Bayern's central position is already overcrowded. The competition between vice-captain Schweinsteiger, Kroos, Tymoshchuk, and Gustavo is already fierce enough. Longshut, Muller, and Alaba who changed to full-back...

Due to the existence of Long Special, reality and history have undergone significant changes. Bayern, which has won the honor of the Triple Crown, does not have such a strong demand for Martinez. The Spanish midfielder can only pass by the European overlord this summer. .

Mandzukic, Shaqiri, Dante, Pizarro, Stadt, Bayern only signed these five players in total this summer. The young Weiser was recruited by Nellinger on the second day of joining Bayern. He changed hands and went out on loan. In a short period of time, it is impossible for him to get a call from Bayern.

Then they announced: After spending 2900 million euros, the club's 2012 signings are basically over...

They can think about the training camp a week later.

This is the transfer situation in the Bundesliga. Every club is living on a budget. Everyone is trying their best to tap the potential of young players. A large number of youth players have won the opportunity to enter the first team this summer.

Bayern, which spent nearly 3000 million euros, is already a big deal. The other 17 teams have only two signings exceeding 1000 million in total-one is Dortmund's introduction of Reus, and the other is Borussia Borussia. Bought Longster's former opponent Luke De Jong from the Eredivisie Twente.

League runner-up Borussia Dortmund bought the league champion Reus, but was poached by various teams: the core of the organization Shinji Kagawa announced his transfer to the Red Devils during the winter break, and the former main striker Barrios was taken by the Chinese Super League team Guangzhou Evergrande. It was a big buy, and winger Perisic switched to Wolfsburg because Klopp refused to accept the main position. A joining of Royce may not be able to make up for the vacancies in these positions. The overall strength of the Hornets has not only not improved, but has declined slightly. .

Schalke, who is third in the league, also did not make any big moves. They sold for 700 million yuan, bought them for 680 million yuan, and earned 20 yuan...

As for the dark horse Borussia last season, after losing the three generals Royce, Dante, and Neustadt, they spent 3000 million in one go, and bought the talented Dutch striker, 1200-year-old Luke Deutschland with 21 million. Rong, 850 million bought the Swiss genius, 19-year-old defensive midfielder Xhaka, these two signings are also the most expensive and second most expensive records in Borussia's history...

Bundesliga teams really have no money!

But it's not just the Bundesliga that is so cautious. Due to the impact of the economic situation, Italy and Spain have not made much effort.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Silva left Milan, Lucio, Maicon, Cesar and Forlán left Inter, the Milan duo have all undergone major changes, Juventus is struggling to rebuild, and Serie A, which has been hit hard by the economy, has begun to enter downturn.

In La Liga, the defending champion Real Madrid changed their style of spending money like water in the past, and only used 3000 million to introduce midfielder Modric from Tottenham, and then loaned Mourinho's old African Buffalo Essien from Chelsea. He sold Altintop, Canales, Gago, and Granero in one breath, and loaned Dortmund's former core Sahin to Liverpool, earning a total of 2750 million euros, with a net investment of only 250 million - known for hoarding stars It is absolutely unimaginable that Real Madrid in the world actually made money in the transfer market!

After Barcelona bid farewell to the meritorious coach Pep Guardiola, the transfer idea was obviously not clear enough: only 1400 million was spent to introduce Spanish international full-back Alba, and 1900 million to acquire Arsenal midfielder Alexander Song. The total investment was the same as that of Real Madrid, only 3300 million In terms of selling people, he got nothing. Only Keita's contract expired and he went to the Albin of the Chinese Super League to pan for gold.

Yes, the booming Chinese Super League has begun to affect the land of Europe thousands of miles away.

The same goes for the Premier League.

Chelsea striker Didier Drogba traveled to Shanghai Shenhua and became the first famous crab to test the depth of the Super League water pool.The Blues, who failed to perform a miracle, finally failed to qualify for the Champions League. The disappointed Abramovich waved a big hand, and a large number of rubles entered the transfer market: 4000 million to buy Ligue 3200 MVP, Belgian Messi Hazard, [-] million to buy A group of technical players such as Azpilicueta, Marin, and Moses joined together. Tired of strength and blood, Abramovich spent nearly [-] million euros to show the world his determination. He wants to play in the team. Set off a technological storm.

Arsenal acquired the two forwards of Podolski and Giroud in a row, and bought Spanish midfielder Cazorla, investing more than 4000 million euros, but everyone knows that the money is just that Professor Wenger sold the captain for here.

Gunners captain Robin van Persie unexpectedly joined rivals Manchester United, which made him another traitor in Arsenal's history.Ferguson, who lost the championship at the last minute last season, let go of his hands and feet in his last season of coaching Manchester United: Van Persie, Kagawa Shinji joined hands, plus a group of talented young players (the last one did not play), with a total investment of nearly 7000 million euros, Ferguson's determination to regain glory is evident.

Manchester United is ready to go, and the defending champions and their rivals in the same city will certainly not sit still: Maicon, Rodwell, Harvey Garcia, Wright, Sinclair, Nastasic and other powerful players have joined, and the total investment It also exceeded 7000 million.

As for Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton... They are all still on the road of reconstruction year after year.

In the summer of 2012, there were no heavyweight transfers that could shock the world. Longshut, who had been resting for half a month, returned to Munich again.

The training camp for the new season is about to begin.
