Suarez, Mathieu, Rakitic, Ter Stegen, Bravo, Vermaelen, Douglas and other stars have also been paid by Barcelona one after another.

Atletico Madrid, another team in Madrid, also spends a lot of money. Players such as Griezmann, Mandzukic, Cerci, Oblak, and Jimenez have also become members of Atletico Madrid this season.

Dabao arrived in Milan on August 8, and then went directly to the team's base.

And what greeted him was naturally everyone's welcome. As the top scorer of the Shinco World Cup, Inter Milan welcomed Dabao's return very much. Even when Dabao walked out of the airport, many Inter fans also expressed their support for Dabao's return. welcome.

In addition, there was another enough surprise, that is, before he returned to Inter Milan for the first training session of the new season, the head coach directly announced the captain of the new season.

"It was a surprise indeed."

"In fact, it is not surprising at all. Although you were not the captain of the team last season, you have already fulfilled some captain's duties when you are playing on the field. Mr. Mazzari and I believe that you will become the first in the history of Inter Milan. Legendary Captain.”

"I hope it will be, too, and I'll try to do it."
