Chapter 193 Going to Barcelona to Watch the Final

Alkmaar held a grand celebration for the Dutch Cup victory.

When we won the league championship, we had to prepare for the Dutch Cup, so we didn’t celebrate to our heart’s content. Now that we have won the double crown, the players don’t have any thoughts. The players, fans and club personnel took floats around Amsterdam and Alkmaar for two rounds. Circle, back to the Town Hall Square, the carnival continued for another day, almost all residents of Alkmaar joined the carnival, Alkmaar's wine reserve was running out of beer, and had to be shipped outside.

After the celebration was over, Jiang Mu gave the players a holiday. They gained both fame and fortune. The players who got a large bonus went back to China for vacation happily. But Jiang Mu didn’t have that easy. There is no need to worry, the agent will worry about the renewal of the contract, they can go on vacation without worry, but for the coach, the summer transfer period is the preparation period for the next season, if they do not make sufficient preparations now Prepare, they must be prepared to fail next season.

Although the transfer can be done without Jiang Mu's intervention, Jiang Mu is really worried, because he can't buy the person he wants, and he is the one who is unlucky. The fans and the media don't care what your reason is. Win is win, loss is loss, win You are a good coach, amazing coach, you are an idiot when you lose, no matter what your reason is, if you keep losing, the coach is the best scapegoat.

Jiang Mu did not return to China after the holiday, but bought some gifts for Zhao Guangming to bring to relatives and friends in China. He had to settle an important transfer before he could return to China for vacation with peace of mind.

After receiving a bonus of more than 40 Dutch guilders, Jiang Mu first invested [-] Dutch guilders to buy a football lottery ticket. The Champions League final has not yet started, but the momentum has turned to the sky. The outside world is unanimously optimistic about the powerful Bayern Munich, and Jiang Mu Knowing that Manchester United performed a miracle at the last moment, they scored two goals in stoppage time, reversed Bayern to win the championship, and won the first triple crown in the five major leagues.Although Jiang Mu didn't know if history would change because of his arrival, he still chose to buy Manchester United to win the championship without hesitation.

Jiang Mu also made arrangements for the remaining money. The 30 Dutch guilders were used to buy a house and a car. Although the bus and railways in the Netherlands are very developed, sometimes you have your own car when you go out for an outing or travel to other countries. Still must.

Jiang Mu didn't plan to buy any good cars either. A German-made Golf would be enough for transportation, and the rest would be enough for him to buy a two-story villa in Alkmaar or the suburbs of Amsterdam. The rent here is two years. , Jiang Mu intends to send Zhao Guangming to live.

Although Jiang Mu is proficient in Dutch, he is not clear about Dutch laws and regulations, so the house and car are entrusted to Scheringa. Jiang Mu has many friends in the Netherlands, but he can be trusted in this matter and has this Only Sherinja is capable.

After the league ended, contract renewal work was proceeding in an orderly manner. After the Dutch Cup final, there were very few players who did not renew their contracts. Those who did not intend to renew their contracts began to look for transfer teams, and those who planned to renew their contracts were still with the club. Discuss issues such as annual salary and treatment.

Alkmaar will play in the Champions League next season. It will be very difficult for the existing players to play in the Champions League. The main force is young, not strong enough, and the level of the substitute is even worse. If Jiang Mu wants to achieve something in the Champions League next season Therefore, it is necessary to add some experienced and high-level players. Jiang Mu did not return to China to inspect the players.

If a new stadium is not built, Alkmaar has plenty of funds, so don't worry about Jiang Mu. The players he proposes to introduce will be paid for by the club. But now that Alkmaar is short of funds, in order to get suitable players, Jiang Mu has to do it himself.

Now the position that Alkmaar urgently needs to fill is a midfielder who can organize and score goals. If Altidore leaves, someone must take over. In fact, even if Altidore does not leave, Jiang Mu still wants to buy someone. After all, Altidore He came from the Dutch second division. There is no problem with his level of playing in the Dutch league, and sometimes he is very good, but in the Champions League, which one is not a national footballer, which one is not a well-known player in his own league or in the world.Altidore's role as the core of the midfield is to play in the group stage, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do what he wants in the knockout stage.Even if they are assigned to a bad group, the chances of qualifying are slim.

In this position, what Jiang Mu wants most is Ronaldinho. Although Ronaldinho is still a little young and his ability to decide the game is far inferior to that of Ronaldinho and Qi Dan, but it is cheap and has great potential. Alkmaar's first player to acquire.

In addition to the position of playmaker, the position of left back needs to be replenished. Suleiman's strength is not bad, but his offense is strong and his defense is weak. In the Champions League, which focuses on defense, Suleiman's shortcoming is likely to be exploited by opponents. A breakthrough may cause the overall defeat. Even if the midfielder can provide protection, Suleiman needs at least a suitable substitute.

In addition to these two key positions and the position of the goalkeeper, other positions also need to be supplemented, but that depends on whether Jiang Mu has sufficient funds at hand?Enough, of course, is to buy more people, the more the better.If the funds are insufficient, the players who supplement these two positions can also compete with the opponents in the group stage.

Ronaldinho's transfer has been full of twists and turns. Last season, Ronaldinho was still young and famous. Now, as Ronaldinho is called by Brazil coach Scolari The national team and other clubs also took a fancy to Ronaldinho's talent and began to offer offers to Gremio. Ronaldinho's brother Assis saw that his younger brother was so favored, and his appetite grew. The original promise to Jiang Mu was also forgotten.

Although the original Assis was greedy for money, he sacrificed a lot for his family, which made Jiang Mu quite respectful. The current Assis is really annoying to Jiang Mu. It’s no wonder that he would be so greedy in his previous life. Ronaldinho, who was involved, suddenly fell into a trough during his peak period, and finally fell into a slump.

But now is not the time to be angry. Considering the core interests of the team, the introduction of Ronaldinho is the best investment at this moment. The utilitarian Jiang Mu easily put aside his personal hobbies and continued to focus on Ronaldinho. transfer.

In the position of left back, it turned out that Jiang Mu had his eyes on the German Zieger. After Zieger transferred from Bayern to AC Milan, he had been depressed. AC Milan regretted it and repeatedly revealed the idea of ​​selling Zieger. But now it seems that Zieg's price is no longer affordable for Alkmaar, unless Jiang Mu only chooses one between Zieg and Ronaldinho.

Judging from the current situation in Alkmaar, what Alkmaar needs more is Ronaldinho than a full-back, so Jiang Mu reluctantly gave up Zieger. Now there are two left-back players delineated by Jiang Mu, one is The Argentine Peña and the Norwegian cannon Riise, these two people can not only help the team in defense, but their powerful volley may also become the team's secret weapon.

The most important thing is that they are still not well-known, the price is cheap, and people say that there is no good product if it is cheap, but in the eyes of a reborn person like Jiang Mu, cheap treasures are everywhere, but it still takes time to polish it. Let them shine brightly.

The UEFA Champions League final was held five days after the Dutch Cup final. In order to build a good relationship with the Ronaldinho brothers, Jiang Mu personally invited the Assis brothers to watch the football in Europe. They are all from the club, Jiang Mu is just taking care of the media and the feelings of the Ronaldinho brothers.

Assis is known to be a man who earns money when he has a bargain. Jiang Mu called to invite him to watch the Champions League final in Barcelona, ​​Spain. Assis just pretended to tell Jiang Mu that he would discuss it with his family. He replied straightforwardly that Jiang Mu would bring his younger brother Ronaldinho to Barcelona to watch the football.

Two days before the Champions League final, Assis and Ronaldinho came to the Netherlands. Jiang Mu and Scheringa drove the two brothers to Dirk's seaside villa in a Bentley.

It was the first time for Ronaldinho to come to Europe. He sat in a luxury car and came to a mansion. Ronaldinho couldn't use his eyes anymore. Every place made him feel curious and envious.

The elder brother Assis was still relatively calm. He held Jiang Mu's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Coach Jiang and Ms. Scheringa. The friendship between the two of you is engraved in the hearts of the Assis family."

Jiang Mu smiled and held Assis's arm, and said: "Assis, what you said is too outlandish, we didn't know each other for a day or two, no matter whether the transfer was successful or not, your family Everyone is my friend."

Seeing Jiang Mu and Assis talking politely, Siherinja stood at the door and said, "Sit inside quickly. You can catch up on the past while drinking tea."

Of course, Jiang Mu and Assis have nothing old to share. After talking about some interesting things in Brazil last Christmas in the living room, Jiang Mu drove the Assis brothers to the Sea Palace in Amsterdam for dinner. After dinner, fly directly to Barcelona, ​​Spain.

There is still one day before the game starts, but Barcelona, ​​a famous city of culture and art, is already filled with the atmosphere of football. There are large posters of superstars such as Sumeichel, Keane, Matthaus, Basler, etc., and there are endless streams of Bayern and Manchester United fans. The team anthems of Bayern and Manchester United sounded, and things related to the Champions League can be seen everywhere in the city.

Before this game, Manchester United and Bayern had played against each other twice in the group stage, one was 2:2 and the other was 1:1. There was no winner. After the end of the season, Manchester United has completed the domestic league and cup doubles Wang, while Bayern won the league championship three rounds ahead of schedule, and also entered the final of the German Cup to be held two weeks later.The two teams represent the highest level of European clubs, and their goal is the "Triple Crown", the highest honor in European football.Prior to this, all three European triple crowns won the European Cup before the Champions League was restructured, and no team from the five major European leagues has ever been able to accomplish this feat.

This particularity also made the atmosphere of the game more lively and tense.
