Legendary Broker

In big competition years, including World Cup years and European Cup years, the transfer market is generally relatively calm before the big competitions end.Because many people will wait and see, the seller's market is waiting for their players to shine in the World Cup and then sell them.The younger the player the more so.

But in April 06, something surprising happened suddenly in European football.Just entered April, "The Sun" was the first to break out a piece of news.That is the French star Ribéry, who performed well in Lyon this season, moved to Manchester United for 600 million pounds.

When the news first came out, everyone took it as a joke.Ribery's performance in Lyon this season has attracted the attention of many giants, especially Lyon's entry into the quarter-finals of the Champions League.And in the quarter-finals, Ribery alone turned Milan's right wing upside down.Although he was eliminated in the end, he scored a goal in both home and away rounds. If he scored another goal in the end, he would have eliminated Milan with an away goal advantage.

Although Ribery performed so well, no one thought Ribery could be worth such a high price.After all, 600 million pounds, converted into euros, is more than 4000 million euros.Ribery is only 23 years old, and his fame was limited to France a year ago.Even if he performed well this season, it shouldn't be such a high price.

"The Sun" is the number one tabloid in England, and there are countless fake transfer news in it.Even when many agents fake news, they will choose the "Sun".Because they are professional in this area, their experience in this area is the most in European football newspapers.It is a breeze for them to let them release fake transfer news.

But soon British newspapers followed suit.They all vowed to guarantee this transfer.Of course, they each have their own opinions on the transfer fee, but one thing is certain.That is Ribery's transfer is a certainty.In addition to British newspapers, newspapers in France and Germany soon began to report on the transfer.

After all, a transfer like Ribery has gone through a lot up and down.From the top management of Manchester United to Lyon, there are too many channels for leaking news.Moreover, Manchester United and Lyon are not prepared to block the news, they are just cautious when negotiating.After the discussion is almost over, there is no need to keep this transfer secret.

The reason why the media pays so much attention to this transfer is because once this transfer is actually completed, it will be another amazing transfer in European football.After all, after entering the 21st century.Especially after the collapse of the transfer market in Serie A football.Only the transfer fees of those top superstars can have a transfer fee of 4000 million euros.

"Yes, we have reached an agreement with Lyon."

During the uproar, Manchester United CEO David Gill finally affirmed what the media said.He didn't say much about Ribery's transfer fee, but he said with certainty: "Frank Ribery is the player we need. He is the key player for Manchester United next season. He will become the most important player in Manchester United's reconstruction. One ring. Although many people think we spend too much money. But I will say that everyone will find out soon. It is not a lot of money at all."

After this transfer, I am very happy in several aspects.Needless to say for Lyon, Aulas didn't spend much money at all when he introduced Ribery.Including the commission for Ribery, the signing bonus for Ribery, and Ribery's salary for one year, the cost of introducing Ribery is just over ten million euros.

But Ribery has helped Lyon to defend the Ligue 4000 title this year, and has entered the quarter-finals in the Champions League, and almost eliminated Milan.Now that Ribery is transferring, the transfer fee exceeds [-] million euros.Lyon's profits are very high.

Even more so for Manchester United.After two consecutive years of downturn, the arrival of Chelsea, a local tycoon, caught Manchester United by surprise.In particular, Chelsea came when Manchester United was out of reach, which led to very poor results for Manchester United in the past two seasons.Ferguson originally hoped to slowly upgrade, but the existence of Chelsea no longer allowed Manchester United to hesitate.Therefore, Manchester United also needs some refreshing transfers and needs to speed up the renewal of the team.

Ferguson is very optimistic about Ribery, and also agrees with Rist that Ribery is the core of the future of French football.Although the transfer fee this time is a bit high, Ferguson never hesitated once he made up his mind.So immediately before the World Cup, Ribery was taken from Lyon.

Ribery was even happier.Whether it is Metz or Marseille, they are both Ligue [-] clubs.After the Bosman Act, the decline of Ligue [-] became more and more obvious.Don't look at Lyon as a monopoly of the Ligue [-] champions, but in the eyes of other top European leagues, they are nothing more than local tyrants in Ligue [-].Ribery is very happy to be able to enter Manchester United now.

As for Rist, needless to say.Rist has benefited too much from this transfer.Aulas did not think about selling Ribery before the World Cup, he hoped to sell Ribery at a high price after the World Cup.But Manchester United was too fierce, and the offer directly moved Aulas.In Aulas' prediction, even if Ribery performed well in this World Cup, the transfer fee would not exceed this amount.

So Rist took advantage of both sides this time.Get a commission from Manchester United and a share of the transfer fee from Lyon.In the end, Rist received nearly 700 million euros in income from this transfer.And Ribery's salary is even higher. At Manchester United, he received a weekly salary of [-] pounds.

But Manchester United is indeed the center of the storm.Just after it was reported that Manchester United won Ribery for 600 million pounds, it was once again reported that Atletico Madrid won Manchester United's Rosicky for 200 million euros.

This surprised many people.What does Manchester United want to do?It is rare to see such a major transfer before the World Cup, but Manchester United has such a transfer in succession.

Although Rosicky's performance at Manchester United did not meet expectations, his performance was not too bad.Unexpectedly, Manchester United sold Rosicky.It stands to reason that at this time, everyone's focus is on the Champions League and the end of the league.Of course, a large part of it is in the news of the World Cup.But this season is different. Manchester United is really in the news at the end of the season.

But it is also because Manchester United has no hope of winning the Premier League this season and has also been eliminated from the Champions League.That's why Ferguson had time to make such a transfer.

"Italian football is fun. Hehe."

Arnesen gloated at the newspaper. European football in 06 was really an eventful year. There has never been a year where so many situations will appear before the World Cup.

If it is said that the transfer news of Ribery and Rosicky is somewhat attractive, then the news that Ballack joined Chelsea and Shevchenko may join Chelsea will attract everyone's attention even more.No one expected that there would be one heavyweight transfer after another before the World Cup. Now it is rumored everywhere that Chelsea will introduce Shevchenko at a price of more than 5000 million euros.If this transfer is successful, this is the most sensational transfer.Compared with Shevchenko, whether it is Ribery or Rosicky, they are all inferior.This is the real superstar player.

可惜这些转会消息都没有昨天的新闻来的火爆。2006年5月4日，《米兰体育报》突然刊登了近年来尤文图斯俱乐部总经理莫吉与意甲裁判指定员之间的通话内容，录音的内容主要是04年莫吉和担任了6个赛季意甲联赛裁判指定员帕伊雷托之间的通话纪录。

The news this time is simply a blockbuster. Although it hasn't been fully released, the content published in the newspaper alone is shocking.Like Moggi of Juventus, he arbitrarily assigned referees in many games.Although people in the field understand many things clearly, but if they understand it, the effect will be completely different if it is published in the newspaper.

"Frank, Serie A is over. "Little World Cup" is completely over."

"kindness."

Arneson nodded.Now there is only more than one month left before the World Cup, and no one thought that such a scandal would break out.

"Since Fiorentina, Lazio, Parma and other strong Serie A teams began to decline due to economic reasons, the transfer market of Serie A has shrunk significantly, and the attractiveness of Serie A has been greatly reduced. After this incident, Serie A will definitely will be greatly affected.”

"Of course, Frank."

Rist knows better than anyone the impact of "Telephone Gate" on Italian football.Although after the outbreak of "Phonegate", the Italian national team won the World Cup championship, followed by Milan and Inter Milan who won the Champions League.But these successes simply cannot stop the rapid decline of the Italian league.

"I can look forward to it. This incident will cause a devastating blow to the image of Italian football. The market appeal of most clubs will drop to freezing point. A large number of outstanding players will flee Serie A, causing the Italian league's competitive level to decline rapidly. Of course This will lead to the decline of Serie A's ability to compete in Europe, and it will be difficult to maintain Serie A's current position in the European league. In the next few years, the chances of Italian teams participating in European competitions will be greatly reduced, which will lead to more outstanding players. Willing to join the vicious circle of Serie A."

"That's right. Serie A has been short of money in the past few years, and large transfers have begun to disappear. After this incident, it is even more impossible for Serie A clubs to spend money. It is impossible for him to attract more good players without spending money. It is simply impossible to surpass the Premier League and La Liga, and maybe even the Bundesliga in the future."

The downward trend of Serie A in the past few years is already obvious, and with this incident, no one can stop the decline of Serie A.

"Rist, I have made up my mind. Money, only money is the foundation of commercial football at present. I want to go to Chelsea, and Serie A will completely decline. In the future, European football will be dominated by La Liga and the Premier League. I will go to Chelsea. I Don't waste the good opportunity that God has given you now."
