I started with Torres, to revive German football

Chapter 256 A big reshuffle in the defense!

That night, Zhao Jinge and Mendes returned to Manchester.

On the plane flying back, Zhao Jinge not only learned about his commercial value and endorsement contract from Mendes in detail, but also combined with the information he already knew, learned about Manchester City's recent developments from Mendes. status quo.

After winning the Triple Crown last season, Manchester City's status in European football is different from the past. Like Zhao Jinge, whose commercial value has skyrocketed, Manchester City's status in the commercial field has also risen sharply this summer.

Various business development aspects are like taking a bite of Shiquan Dabu pills, and have made great progress.

According to the news that Mendes learned, just relying on the addition of a Champions League champion, Manchester City's commercial value has increased by 15.00% this summer!
This is definitely an unimaginable number for Manchester City, a club that has reached the top four in the Premier League and the top ten in Europe in the commercial field, and this is just the beginning.

In addition, last season, Manchester City won the Premier League and received a bonus of [-] million pounds. The prize of [-] pounds for winning the League Cup was negligible. The prize for winning the Champions League was [-] million pounds. GBP!
This is a huge and unimaginable championship bonus, which almost directly filled more than half of Manchester City's transfer fee last season!
You must know that a large part of Manchester City's signing funds of more than [-] million euros last season was paid in installments. The direct inflow of so much cash immediately completely cured Manchester City's weak period after the crazy buying last season.

Mansur, the big boss of Manchester City, doesn't need to change the way to give Manchester City blood transfusions this summer. With the bonuses increasing sharply and the commercial value constantly increasing, Manchester City can completely achieve a certain degree of self-sufficiency.

As for the bonus that Mansour promised to the players, it was handed over to the players in a different way through the endorsement contract in the Middle East, and a wave of taxes was avoided through legal means.

It not only ensures the financial health of Manchester City, but also the players get a more affordable income. Of course, Manchester City’s approach has also caused dissatisfaction among other Premier League giants and even European giants. In their opinion, Manchester City should directly divide the championship bonus. Rather than leaving it to the team to operate.

However, after all, it is a bonus that does not account for the salary cap. Without affecting the Financial Fair Play Act, the major giants can only say a few words, and they are still worried about whether Manchester City, which has become richer and richer again, will Come to cut the leeks in your team?

Since Guardiola re-proved himself in Manchester City last season, Manchester City, which is in full swing, has the qualifications to be on par with the old giants in terms of attractiveness to players, and is willing to spend money.

So now many stars who want to compete for the championship and get high wages have included Manchester City in their list of options for the next stop.

However, despite holding so many good news and resources, Manchester City's actions in the transfer market this summer are not big, and more are just some minor repairs and normal replacement of personnel.

Guardiola is still very clear and meticulous in controlling the team. After the French European Cup, Manchester City announced the peaceful termination of the contract with the two veteran players in the team, Sarnia and Zabaleta.

Salia went to North America to pan for gold as she wished, and Zabaleta, a meritorious player who has played for the team for nearly ten years, was also able to go to West Ham United one year in advance.

And relying on the value bonus and better competitive state after winning the championship, he got a sufficiently generous signing fee and a very good salary from the Hammers.

Since the two substitute right backs chose to leave this summer, it is definitely not enough to leave Kyle Walker alone on the right. After all, Manchester City will definitely fight on multiple lines next season.

After several rounds of inspections, Guardiola quickly finalized the reinforcement candidate for the right back from Valencia's right back Cancelo.

Currently 1.8 meters tall and weighing 75 kilograms, Cancelo, who is only 22 years old, works as a right back and right midfielder on the court. He is a very strong attacking wide player who is popular with Guardiola.

In terms of technical characteristics, Cancelo has very good personal speed, so in the wing position, whether it is attacking with the ball or chasing and defending, he has enough speed to support him running back and forth.

Born in Portugal at the same time, Cancelo, who played well in the La Liga team, has a solid dribbling and ball handling ability, and his technical skills are very good, so he is a full-back player who can hold the ball.

For Guardiola, Cancelo, who has good enough foot skills, physical fitness and physical fitness and can withstand the pressure of running for a long time, is a piece of rough jade waiting for him to polish.

Moreover, Cancelo is one of those rare players who can play on both the left and right sides, and both can perform well. It is also a favorable choice for personnel supplementation on the left side.

Therefore, under various factors, this player who almost publicly broke his face with Guardiola in the future came to Manchester City along the trajectory of fate, but it was three years earlier.

Regarding the transfer of Cancelo, Zhao Jinge already knew about it when he was on vacation. The transfer fee of 500 million euros is still very cost-effective to be honest.

Of course Zhao Jinge knew the conflict between Cancelo and Guardiola in the future, and knew that he would be a thorn in the dressing room, but the future did not happen after all.
Under Guardiola's sculpting, Cancelo has indeed reached the world's top level in terms of technology. For a period of time, he was even considered by fans to be the number one right back in the world.

Therefore, Zhao Jinge doesn't have too many other ideas. After all, Cancelo's personal ability is really nothing to say. Cultivate it first, and then it will last for a few years at the peak. It’s definitely not a loss to go out!

In addition to the big change of right back, the corresponding left back also came with new supplements. The two veterans, Kolarov and Clichy, were both kept by Manchester City.

Originally, Guardiola was ready to look for young replacements, but these two veterans still want to play in the top European leagues, and their strength is not bad, and their salary requirements are not high.

So, after careful consideration, Guardiola still kept the two veterans.

In Zhao Jinge's view, it is indeed a wise decision to keep the two of them. After Kolarov left Manchester City next summer in history, he still played the main force in Rome for three seasons. There is still enough oil in it.

Although Chrissy, who was the main left player of the team last season, played relatively averagely, he did not become a big gap for the team anyway.

At a stage where Manchester City's games are increasing this year, there is absolutely no problem staying to deal with multi-line battles, and it has indeed played an extra season of main rotation in history.

After leaving two veterans as rotations, it is impossible for Manchester City not to supplement the position of left back. After all, if there is no change this year, there will definitely be a big change next year. Of course, preparations must be made in advance.

The first is the introduction of Zinchenko from the Ufa team of the Ukrainian Super League. The price is 220 million. For Manchester City, it is just a lottery ticket, which is irrelevant.

Could it be that the team didn't even stay for a few more days in the summer training camp, so they directly loaned this 19-year-old Ukrainian boy to PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie for training, and Manchester City will bear all the salary.

I have to say that Guardiola still attaches great importance to this young man, and found him a fairly good team like Eindhoven.

In addition, Guardiola once again became suspicious of young talents in Spain, and directly bought a young player from Atletico Madrid, and spent a total of 1000 to [-] million euros!

This was a transfer that had just been finalized at the end of July. When Zhao Jinge knew about it, he was very surprised and had to lament that Guardiola's vision was still vicious.

Theo Hernandez, who would grow into the world's top left-back in AC Milan in the future, was not able to be loaned to Alaves by Atletico Madrid as in history.

Not to mention being unable to be loaned to Alaves for another year, he transferred to Real Madrid at a high price of 400 million, becoming another star-studded Bernabeu who couldn't get a place, and then went away and finally became An example of a top player.

To be honest, compared to his elder brother Lucas Hernandez who successfully gained a foothold in Atletico Madrid and then broke the transfer fee record of Bayern Munich, Special Olympics is obviously the one who is more worry-free. His brother was as deeply troubled by injuries.

If Guardiola is willing to trust him and give him a chance, Zhao Jinge believes that Theo Hernandez will have a smoother career than him in history, at least as far as the current situation on the left wing of Manchester City is concerned, as long as he If you have the ability, you will never lack opportunities.

And the main left-back of the French national team in the future must be world-class in terms of talent and ability. From this point of view, Manchester City has made a lot of money in this deal.

At least it is much better than Bayern Munich spent 8000 million euros to buy a "Lu Zhandi" whose attendance rate was almost cut in half. It is not a price on the same level!
You know, even this year's Little Special Olympics started almost three-quarters of the games in Alaves, and his attendance rate is simply much better than his brother!

It's just that Zhao Jinge still has doubts about whether the two old and young can sustain Manchester City's multi-line battles this season?

It's not about their attendance rate, but about whether their competitive state can support Manchester City's ambitions this year. After all, this year's Manchester City must repeat the miracle of last season!
Of course, Zhao Jinge definitely can't decide on these things. As a player, all he can do is to play his football as well as possible.

In terms of buying people, Guardiola and Manchester City have done a pretty good job, at least so far, none of them have been mistaken.

In addition to the changes to the two wings in the backcourt, Manchester City has also made reinforcements in the central defender. Stones and Otamendi still have not met Guardiola's requirements in terms of stability.

It is precisely because of this that Otamendi will be purged by Guardiola after a few seasons. As for Stones, if Guardiola hadn't changed his position in the second, second and third seasons, if it hadn't been for Lapoll Due to the continuous injuries, I am afraid that he will be the next one to be cleaned.

And the most stable central defender, as the captain of Manchester City, Kompany has completely turned into a glass man. He even missed the European Cup because of an injury during the pre-match training for the European Cup!
This is definitely bad news for the Belgian team, and it is even more uncomfortable for Manchester City. The new season is about to start in two weeks, and Dinghaishenzhen in their defense is still doing rehabilitation training.

Zhao Jinge, the core attacker of the siege, is still sitting on the plane to Manchester, missing almost three-quarters of the summer training.

And De Bruyne and Gundogan, who have replaced David Silva and Yaya Toure's midfield core positions, have only just arrived in Manchester for a day or two.

During this period of time, Guardiola has not lost his hair for these few who have been unable to return to the team for a long time, and the boss who participated in training has a hard time losing his hair!

The few remaining hairs have almost completely fallen off. So far, Guardiola has finally completed the final transformation of a Spaniard after coming to the UK, and completely integrated into this country that carries his own career.

As for Demichelis, a veteran who made great contributions to Manchester City last season, he chose to play in Spain because he couldn't bear the weather in Manchester.

In this regard, Manchester City did not have any obstacles, and still allowed him to leave for free, so that he could get a higher salary from his new club, the Spaniard.

This is also a pretty good ending for this veteran who has been in European football for many years.

So, all in all, Manchester City's central defender needs to be strengthened, but it is too difficult to find a reliable central defender in today's market, otherwise Manchester City would not have spent a high price to buy Otamendi last year. stones.

Therefore, when there are still people who can barely use it this year, Guardiola chose to let go and buy from La Liga. Laporte, who has played steadily for three seasons in Athletic Bilbao, officially entered Manchester City. Sight!

This transfer, which was made a year and a half earlier, cost Manchester City 4000 million euros, which is 500 million cheaper than the original history, and it is also the most expensive transfer fee Manchester City has spent so far this summer.

From Zhao Jinge's point of view, no matter what happens afterward?Just relying on Laporte's performance in the past few seasons after his transfer to Manchester City in history, apart from being as prone to injuries as Kompany, he is definitely worthy of his worth.

In addition to Laporte, Guardiola has also taken a fancy to several other candidates.But without exception, it was stranded either because of the high price or because the other party didn't want to sell at all.

After wandering around the transfer market for a long time, Manchester City can only stop with hatred. They really can't buy a good defender!
