Legendary godfather of green grass

The meeting with Laporte went well!

After all, Laporte was still playing in West C last season, and his future this season is still five-to-one.

After ending Baskonia's loan contract, Laporte will return to the Athletic Bilbao youth team.

However, at this time he has not yet got the team's arrangements for his new season.

Should he go on loan, stay in the youth team, or go to the B team?

Yes, at this time, it is a luxury for Laporte to go to the B team to play in the second division. He never thought that he could enter the first team to play in the first team now.

Even, at this time, Laporte is ready to continue to be loaned out to play West C.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the club sent a message that he was sold.

Not rented, but sold!

Originally Laporte was very angry and very upset.But when he learned that it was the Crystal Palace of the British Championship who introduced him, and it cost 175 million euros, he calmed down.

If he is not particularly valued, who is willing to spend 175 million euros for him.

When he came to the Athletic Bilbao youth training camp, he was a free transfer, and Crystal Palace was the first team willing to pay a transfer fee for him.

Moreover, Tong Yi, the new head coach of Crystal Palace, is also very popular.

In France and Spain, he has heard of Tong Yi's name.

Laporte is very clear that Tong Yi is a head coach who is good at discovering and using young people, and he is also a very successful head coach.

Now he is willing to spend 175 million euros for himself, which shows that he is really taken by Tong Yi.

Laporte was naturally very excited.

So after meeting Tong Yi, he agreed to join Crystal Palace without asking any questions.

This made his competitors very angry.

Before coming, they had agreed that everything must be obeyed by him.

But after seeing Tong Yi, especially when he heard Tong Yi say that Laporte would be an important rotation player for Crystal Palace's first team in the new season, Laporte agreed without even thinking about it. treatment issues.

The broker is naturally very angry.

Fortunately, Tong Yi did not treat Laporte badly. Tong Yi paid Laporte a weekly salary of 7000 pounds, which is nearly 37 pounds in annual salary.This is already very high for an 18-year-old young man, and this can be regarded as the salary level of the main players in the Crystal Palace team.

And there is also a bonus clause that is not included in it. If Crystal Palace upgrades this season and wins the British Championship, the money that Lapoll can get this season should be more than 50 pounds, which is actually very powerful. .

Of course, Tong Yi's expulsion period is very long, a 5-year contract.

In this regard, Laporte didn't think there was any problem. Such a long contract shows that Tong Yi is really optimistic about him and values ​​him.Moreover, Laporte is also willing to play under Tong Yi. What's more, Laporte is only 23 years old five years later, very young.

Laporte's agent didn't see anything wrong either.

The only thing he thinks is wrong is that Tong Yi has set the clause of liquidated damages in the contract.Of course, what he felt was wrong was not the clause, but the amount of the clause.The amount of liquidated damages set by Tong Yi has reached an astonishing 5000 million pounds!

Laporte's agent felt the amount was too high.

There is simply no club that will pay Laporte so much liquidated damages. Tong Yi is almost tying Laporte to his boat.

Laporte's agent raised objections to this article and hoped to discuss it.

However, Tong Yi directly shook his head and refused. This item must be included, and it must be this amount.

Laporte's astonishment is that he feels Tong Yi's strength.

Laporte's agent was struggling, but Laporte himself had made a decision. He was willing to sign the contract, and he agreed to the terms proposed by Tong Yi.

Laporte's agent was helpless.

But thinking about it carefully, he also felt nothing.

If you can't play, just stay in the Crystal Palace for five years. After five years, Laporte is only 23 years old, still very young. At that time, a large group of teams were still rushing to get them in free transfers.

In the end, Laporte's agent agreed.

Then, things are simple.

Laporte signed his name on the contract.

From this moment on, Laporte is officially a member of Crystal Palace.

With the introduction of Laporte for 175 million euros, Tong Yi felt that he was not losing money.After all, in Tong Yi's memory, Laporte secured his position as the main central defender in La Liga in the second half of the following season, and until he transferred to Manchester City, he was the main player.

Therefore, now Laporte has the strength of the main force in La Liga.

Tong Yi also glanced at Laporte with Bole's eyes. Sure enough, Laporte's strength is not a problem at all to play in the British Championship.

After signing Laporte, Tong Yi was completely relieved of Crystal Palace's central defender position.

Then he and Vieri left Spain directly and went to Portugal, Spain's neighbor.

This time, Tong Yi came to Benfica again.

Tong Yi's goal this time is Jan Oblak, the youth goalkeeper of Benfica Football Club.

Tong Yi really never forgets this goalkeeper.

When he was in Munich 1860 before, Tong Yi found Benfica Football Club many times and wanted to introduce this Oblak.But Benfica refused. The Benfica club still valued Oblak very much and was regarded as a key training object.

Even though Benfica does not need Oblak now, Benfica has loaned Oblak to other teams in the Portuguese Super League for several consecutive years to practice.Yes, it is the Portuguese Super League, Portugal's top league, which shows that Benfica attaches great importance to Oblak.

Moreover, after Oblak was loaned out, the Benfica club did not let go, but continued to pay attention to Oblak's performance.

In the 2010-2011 season, Benfica loaned Oblak to the Beiramar Football Club of the Portuguese Super League. Seeing that throughout the first half of the season, Oblak did not get a minute of playing time in Beiramar. , Benfica recruited Oblak back.Then in the second half of the season, Oblak was loaned to another team in the Portuguese Super League, the Ohanis Football Team.

It's a pity that he didn't get any playing time in a game here.

Last season, Benfica rejected Ohannis' request for Oblak's lease renewal.Benfica directly loaned Oblak to the Leiria team in the Portuguese Super League. Here last season, Oblak played 16 times and contributed 4 clean sheets. His performance is not bad.

The excellent performance last season allowed Oblak to get the attention of many other teams in the Portuguese Super League. Now there are many clubs who want to rent or buy him out, but Benfica said that they will only rent and not sell in the new season.

Therefore, at this time, many Portuguese Super League teams want to rent Oblak.

Among them are Leiria, Bellamar, Ohannes and Rio Avi.

Benfica is choosing a loan team for Oblak, and Tong Yi brought his watch to the Crystal Palace again.

Regarding Tong Yi's purchase request, Benfica directly rejected it without even thinking about it.

Benfica was very resolute and did not give Tong Yi any chance at all.

The words of the Benfica people were not as tactful as the Athletic Bilbao side. Tong Yi instantly understood that Benfica was really unwilling to sell Oblak.

Tong Yi also felt very sorry about this!

To be honest, he is very optimistic about Oblak.

After all, Oblak was also a member of the world for a while later, and in 2014, when he transferred from Benfica to Atletico Madrid, his worth reached 1600 million euros.

And if Tong Yi remembers correctly, Oblak will return to Benfica on loan in the 2013-2014 season, stay in the Benfica first team, and then take over Benfica after the team's assistant goalkeeper Morais was injured in the second half of the season The position of the main goalkeeper, and then played 16 times in the Portuguese Super League, with 14 clean sheets and only conceded 3 goals.

In this way, he made Atletico Madrid so willing to pay a transfer fee of 1600 million euros.

Moreover, in the upcoming season, Oblak also played 28 times in the Portuguese Super League and completed 6 clean sheets.The strength of the Rio Ave club is not strong, and the defense strength is even worse. After all, last season, Rio Ave was the third-to-last team in the Portuguese Super League, and the team with the fifth most goals conceded.

Such a performance in such a team is enough to show that Oblak is amazing.

However, there is no way, Benfica does not sell them.

What can Tong Yi do?

Vieri contacted Oblak himself in private, showing that Tong Yi valued him.I hope he can put some pressure on the Benfica club so that Benfica can compromise and agree to sell Oblak to Crystal Palace.

However, Oblak directly refused.

Oblak doesn't seem to have a falling out with Benfica, and he is actually very grateful to Benfica.Without Benfica, he would not be where he is today.And he can also feel that Benfica values ​​​​and is optimistic about him, otherwise he would not arrange so many top teams for loan training.

More importantly, Oblak is well aware that his future is in Benfica.

Although Tong Yi is also very powerful, he is also attractive to him.If it is a normal channel, he is willing to transfer to Crystal Palace to play for Tong Yi.But if he wants to fall out with Benfica, he is not willing.

There was no other way, Tong Yi had to give up on Oblak in the end.

To be honest, I was a bit disappointed to give up Oblak Tong Yi.

If he can't take down Oblak, Tong Yi is going to find a new goalkeeper.But to be honest, the current goalkeeper Speroni of the Crystal Palace is actually enough, at least two or three years to use him as the main force, and then it is actually enough for Mendy to grow up and take over.

Or just temporarily use Speroni as the main goalkeeper?

Then go to get Alisson from the Brazil International Youth Team to Crystal Palace, let Alisson and Mendy play as substitutes for Speroni, let these two grow for two or three years, and then directly succeed Speroni?

That's a nice idea!

Of course, originally Tong Yi wanted to take Ruben Dias away directly from the Benfica youth training camp.

However, the Ruben Dias family now has no plans to leave Portugal.Ruben Diaz's parents are also unwilling to let such a young son go to a foreign country to work hard.They still chose to stay in Benfica, which is a giant in Portugal. They firmly believe that staying here is the best choice for Dias.

Therefore, Tong Yi once again encountered Waterloo in Benfica.

Tong Yi was in a very bad mood.

After leaving Lisbon, Tong Yi went directly to Porto and Boavista Football Club. He spent 4 euros to introduce a young player from their club, Bruno Fernandez.
