Chapter 29 The Crazy Transfer Market 【Please recommend tickets and follow up! 】

After winning the warm-up match against Aberdeen, Werder Bremen has only the last warm-up match in July.

Coach Schaff is very satisfied with the team's offensive cooperation in the midfield and frontcourt in these two games.

With the addition of Lin Quan and De Bruyne, Werder Bremen's frontcourt firepower this season has increased compared to last season.

However, the problem of the team's defense still exists, so he began to look for the defender he wanted in the transfer market.

He first offered Liberec defender Theodor Selassie, 150, for 26 million euros.

Liberec was the champion of the Czech Bundesliga last season and will play in the Champions League next season.

Therefore, they are unwilling to sell their own players at a low price at this time. Faced with Werder Bremen's offer, they flatly rejected it, saying that Selassie is not for sale.

However, because the level of the Czech League is low and the attention is not high, it is difficult for them to retain players invited by the five major leagues.

As long as the other party comes up with an offer that is enough to impress them, they will eventually agree to the player's transfer.

Schaff is very aware of this. After all, these leagues in Eastern Europe, such as the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland, and even the leagues in Ukraine, are all reserved for the Bundesliga.

They want to buy people from these places, unless they are targeted by the giant clubs of the five major leagues at the same time, otherwise they can't buy them!
So he added 150 euros to the offer of 30 million euros, and made another offer of 180 million euros.

Liberec was moved by this offer, and Selassie was not an indispensable and absolute main force in their view.

If they get the 180 million euros from Werder Bremen, they can go to the transfer market and buy some young goblins to train them. As long as they can train a star among these goblins, they will make money.

So they accepted Werder Bremen's offer and the transfer was done.

Selassie can play both full-back and full-back, so he is a versatile player.

However, the position of the team's central defender is still not reinforced, and players need to continue to be purchased.

Before buying someone, he had to buy the team's main central defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos on loan from Genoa.

The Greek is 24 years old and he is in his prime, and his worth was as high as 800 million euros two years ago.

However, after joining AC Milan in the 09-10 season, due to fierce competition in the team, he did not get enough playing time, so his worth plummeted to 200 million euros.

Werder Bremen loaned him last season, and his performance after one season has won the unanimous approval of the fans and the club.

Schaaf believes that this is a player with great strength and potential, so he offered 200 million to buy him out.

Although Genoa is not going to recall Papastathopoulos, they don't want to sell it so cheap.

Especially when he performed so well in the Bundesliga last season, the price of 200 million is not enough to impress them.

So they rejected Werder Bremen's offer and announced that it would take at least 500 million euros to take the Greek away.

This price exceeded the bottom line of Werder Bremen, Schaff gritted his teeth, raised the price to 350 million euros, and told Genoa that this was the bottom line of Werder Bremen, and he would not buy it any higher.

As soon as Genoa heard the offer, they immediately agreed to the deal, which made Coach Schaff realize that he had been tricked, and was immediately furious.

But when he was angry, he still knew in his heart that he had gotten a big deal.

350 million euros to buy a main central defender who can play for the team for at least seven or eight seasons, this deal is too lucrative!

Moreover, based on Sokratis Papastathopoulos's performance in the Bundesliga last season, if he can continue his outstanding performance this season.

Then he is very likely to be favored by some giants. If the team wants to resell him, they will not worry about not being able to sell it, and even make a lot of money.

So he notified the club and quickly signed Papastathopoulos.

After buying two defenders, Werder Bremen's budget is almost exhausted.

Therefore, it can only be signed for free with zero transfer fee to sign Düsseldorf's central defender Lukimya last season.

Although Lukimya is a free agent, his strength is not weak.

He was the core of Düsseldorf's defense in Ligue [-] last season. He was planning to transfer to Cologne in the Bundesliga.

However, Cologne's unexpected relegation last season caused the transfer to fall through.

He didn't want to play in low-level leagues, so when faced with the olive branch offered by Werder Bremen, he naturally accepted it without hesitation.

After signing three defenders and promoting a young man from the team echelon, the penny-pinching Werder Bremen ended their transfer this season.

This summer, Werder Bremen transferred players to earn 1125 million euros, and bought and loaned players spent 625 million euros.

Calculated to make a net profit of 500 million euros, it is considered a small profit.

Unlike Werder Bremen's thrifty family management and careful planning, this year, in the European football transfer market, local tyrants spent money like water and frantically bought their favorite players.

The local tycoon of the Russian Super League St. Peter Zenit took away the transfer of Porto striker Hulk with an offer of 5000 million euros, letting the world know the terrible financial resources of the Russian oligarchs.

And Paris Saint-Germain took away the opponent's main defender Thiago Silva's transfer from AC Milan at the second highest price in history of 4200 million euros, which not only almost broke the record for the transfer fee of a football defender, but also let the world know The arrogance of the local tyrants in the Middle East.

Not to be outdone, the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich bought Athletic Bilbao's main defender Javi Martinez for 4000 million.

This transfer directly broke the transfer record in the history of the Bundesliga, greatly raising the threshold from 3300 million euros to 4000 million euros.

However, Martinez's performance in the Bundesliga was not good. Frequent injuries caused his number of appearances to decline significantly, and his state also plummeted.

This record-breaking transfer was quite a failure for Bayern, but these are all things to come.

The madness of the local tyrants seems to have ignited the enthusiasm of the major clubs to buy people.

So, they also shot one after another.

Chelsea have signed Hazard from Lille for £3200m.

Real Madrid signed Modric from Tottenham for £3000m.

Arsenal captain Robin van Persie, switched to the Red Devils Manchester United at a price of 2400 million pounds. ,

……

All kinds of transfer news make people overwhelmed, originally these have nothing to do with Lin Quan and others.

However, on the Barcelona side, World Sports Daily disclosed a gossip:
A club in the Soviet Super League offered Barcelona a price of 500 million euros, hoping to bring Lin Quan from the youth team to play in the Scottish Super League.

Because the report was small and had no follow-up, it was quickly forgotten.

Lin Quan didn't even know about it at all.

However, on Barcelona's side, some people can't sit still.

"Damn it, what did that kid do? Why did someone come to offer an offer before the Bundesliga even started?"
