Many media also followed suit and began to sensationally analyze the crisis that Arsenal will face in the new season: a lot of money was spent during the summer transfer period, resulting in financial constraints, and player salaries and club expenses were unsustainable.

Hazard and Pogba have more talent and less experience, and it is difficult to adapt to the Premier League environment in a short time.

With the arrival of the injury wave in the middle and late stages of the league, the thickness of Arsenal's bench is not optimistic.

In the past, good results were put forward at the beginning of the season to guarantee the final ranking of the league. Now even good results at the beginning of the season cannot be guaranteed, so can they keep the top four at the end of the season?

……

The most important thing is that this media also revealed a key message - the board of directors has a lot of complaints about the working method of Ling Yun, the new CEO.

This is pure nonsense. Except for Usmanov and Kroenke, two business tycoons with ulterior motives, the other directors have no opinion on Ling Yun's work. Therefore, these few media who deliberately sow discord, It is self-evident who benefits from these incendiary remarks.

Ling Yun did not respond to these two games. There are still 4 days before the end of the summer transfer period. Real Madrid has officially announced the news of Modric's joining, and Alonso has also kept his promise and passed the agent within three days. People gave the answer that they are willing to transfer to Arsenal.

Dick Law also sent back the latest news that the Real Madrid sports manager offered Alonso a price of 3500 million euros.

Ling Yun was really amused by this figure. They bought the 27-year-old Modric for only 4000 million euros. Alonso is already 30 years old. The value given by "German Transfer Market" is only 3000 million euros. Membership fees generally do not exceed their worth.

They dared to ask for 4000 million, which is 500-1000 million more expensive than when Real Madrid bought Alonso from Liverpool, including the floating price.

Ling Yun suddenly had the illusion that the marriage proposal was successful. The wedding was all ready, but the mother-in-law offered the illusion of a sky-high price gift, but the phrase "no more" couldn't be said anyway, and she almost gritted her teeth and agreed, even if the premium was 1000 million yuan. The euro does not hesitate.

But in the end reason overcame impulse, and he began to calm down and analyze the matter.

The offer given by Real Madrid is very subtle. What does 4000 million euros mean?It shows that after getting Modric, they really want to sell a player in the midfielder position, either Alonso or Khedira, it depends on who can sell it for a good price.

4000 million euros is not too expensive to say that it is too expensive, but it is by no means cheap. It is somewhere between the big clubs can afford it but it is unnecessary. In short, it is very disingenuous.

The value of a player after entering the transfer market is only a part of his own strength, and multiple aspects such as age, contract period, nationality and even commercial value must be considered comprehensively.

4000 million is quite a price that is not cost-effective, but it is not so high that Ling Yun will give up directly. The purpose of Real Madrid is to take advantage of the last few days before the closing of the transfer period to gamble.

The bet is that the new president of Arsenal is a fool with a lot of money. If he is willing to spend 4000 million pounds on Hazard, he will definitely be willing to spend 4000 million euros for Alonso.

If you don't want to, then it's better to lower the price. Anyway, the asking price is a little higher, and you are too embarrassed to bargain too low.

Of course Ling Yun didn't want to, he had a lot of money, but he was not stupid, he didn't really want to marry Alonso back home as his wife, of course it was impossible for the mother-in-law to give as much as she wanted.

So I can only let Dick Law drag Real Madrid, while trying to find out the reaction of other clubs that also want to buy Alonso when they hear this offer.

As expected, the previous competitors were all persuaded by this fucking offer. Anyway, the transfer period is about to close. It is impossible for anyone to negotiate a price with Real Madrid in such a short time. Therefore, Alonso must at least stay in Madrid. One season, it is not too late to buy again next year.

The competitor withdrew, and Ling Yun was even less anxious. If Real Madrid wanted to sell, they had no choice but to sell it to him. They offered a sincere price, and he paid the money away without saying a word.

But after another day, Real Madrid refused to let go. However, the news they got from their agent was that Alonso had submitted an application for leaving the team to the club a few days ago, and he was also trying his best to facilitate this transfer.

It has only been ten days since Ling Yun became the CEO of Arsenal, and he has already met two or three agents who want to earn a lot of commission through player transfers.But Alonso and his agent neither asked him to increase the player signing fee, nor asked him to increase the commission. They said that they would consider it and carefully considered it for three days. After three days, they gave a reply and began to vigorously promote the transfer transaction. .

In his heart, he had a little more admiration for Alonso, and he even had a good impression of his agent.He even started to discuss with Luo Cheng, as long as he can successfully win the transfer, he is willing to take the initiative to ask the other party to increase the commission and signing fee to a certain extent.

Negotiations in Madrid are still going on, and Ling Yun waits patiently in his office at the Kearney training base.

The last day of the summer transfer period, the time came to 8 pm on August 31, and there were only 8 hours left before the lower window closed.

Ling Yun stood by the training field of the first team, and quietly watched the afternoon training. Although his eyes fell on the training field, his thoughts had already flown to Madrid thousands of kilometers away.

This time, he did not propose to go there in person, but waited patiently for the good news from Dick.

But no matter how confident he is, waiting is a heart-wrenching thing. If he can't wait for news, he may call Dick at the last moment and tell him that he agrees to the price offered by Real Madrid.

Wenger blew his whistle, and today's training is over.

"Nick, you give..." Ling Yun didn't finish speaking when he saw three people coming from the road leading to the parking lot of the base.

Ling Yun squinted his eyes half-closed, looked towards the sun that was gradually slanting to the west, and saw the tall and straight figure in the middle, the last stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, and all the expectations and waiting became unbearable. The ecstasy of words.

This was the last signing he wanted to see through, and the dust finally settled.

"It's Dick, Alonso, and his manager!" When Nick came to his senses, Ling Yun had strode forward for more than ten meters. He called out "Boss" and quickly followed.

At this time, the players were walking towards the locker room in twos and threes, and suddenly they saw their boss striding towards the road leading to the parking lot of the base, so everyone turned their heads and looked around curiously. When it was revealed who it was, all of them opened their mouths half-opened to show extremely surprised expressions.

"Damn it, I'm not dazzled." Ramsey put one hand on Wilshere's shoulder, and rubbed his eyes pretendingly with the other.

On the other side, Pogba was also shouting excitedly: "Harvey Alonso, my God, is he our new teammate? This is great."

Next to him was a young player who trained with the first team and exclaimed, "Wow, that's my idol! Can I go over and ask him for an autograph?"

All the players are watching and amazed. It is unbelievable that they have already introduced four players this summer, and there is still a fifth pick at the last moment of the summer window that is about to close.

And this fifth pick is still Real Madrid's midfield brain!

Only Arteta, who knew the inside story, didn't have any surprises on his face when he looked at his compatriots, because he himself played a vital role in promoting this transfer.

Although Ling Yun was calm on the surface these days, before the matter was finally implemented, he was still a little uneasy and anxious, and the moment he saw that person, those uneasiness and anxiety, together with the team's results and the pressure of public opinion from all sides, As well as Kroenke's manipulation of the media behind his back and a series of small actions, they are no longer so heavy on his mind.

He stopped a few steps away from Alonso, a thin layer of sweat dripped from the back of his neck because he was walking too fast, with an unconcealable smile on his face, he raised his hand and unbuttoned his suit , took a deep breath before meeting the front and half-jokingly said: "Finally wait until you come back."

Dick's face was full of luck: "Because of time constraints, we were in a bit of a hurry on the way back, so we didn't have time to call you."

Ling Yun nodded: "Thank you."

Dick said that it was really hard work, mainly because of too much pressure. If he couldn't bring him back, he would have to submit his resume to other clubs.There are still a series of matters before signing the contract. He will take the other party's agent to the office to prepare.

Ling Yun then looked at Alonso who was standing there, stretched out his hand and said, "Welcome to Arsenal."

Alonso was wearing a loose plaid shirt with the opening open to reveal a white T-shirt underneath. Sunglasses covered half of his face. The only luggage was a suitcase of a size that was allowed to be carried on the plane.

He put one hand on the trolley of the box, and raised the other hand close to his side slightly, as if making a gesture of welcoming a hug, but it was not obvious and exaggerated.

Even so, this action did not escape Ling Yun's eyes. Boss Xiao Ling's gesture of shaking hands with the other party turned into opening his arms, and enthusiastically stepped forward to give the other party a hug.

Alonso hugged him back and said with a soft smile, "Hello, boss."

Ling Yun also said in his ear: "Hello, Brother Long."

"Huh?" The two separated. Alonso took off his sunglasses and frowned as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said with interest, "Last year when Real Madrid visited China, I heard many fans call me that."

"Yes, this is the nickname given to you by Chinese fans." Ling Yun said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "I will call you Brother Long from now on, okay?"

Alonso blinked as acquiescence: "Then what shall I call you?"

"You can call me Rex."

"Gunnersaurus Rex (Gunner Dragon, the name of the Arsenal mascot)?"

Ling Yun nodded helplessly: "Yes, yes, I am the mascot of Arsenal."
