The Era of Emerald

ps: First, I would like to ask everyone for a recommendation ticket here...

After determining the signing target, Fiorentina moved quickly in the transfer market. Only one week has passed since the end of the Champions League final. Under the leadership of Antonioni and Poirot, Fiorentina, who has just completed three consecutive Champions A flurry of transfer deals have been announced one after another.

The first is Rui Costa, who announced his departure from Fiorentina. Once the news of the Portuguese being listed for sale came out, it immediately caused a rush of teams, especially Bayern Munich, which had just poached Effenberg and lost.Hitzfeld, who has confirmed that he will coach Bayern next season, has expressed to Hoeness countless times that he needs a real playmaker, and Rui Costa, who is good at organizing, just meets this requirement of the German coach.

So Hoeness, who got the news, offered Florence 500 million US dollars at the first time. At the same time, in order to show his sincerity, he even flew to Florence overnight before the transfer progressed, intending to make a deal with Kos The transfer of the Tower had some in-depth negotiations with Fiorentina.

Zhuang Mingge is well aware of the purpose of Hoeness's trip, after all, Bayern Munich's transfer offer for Costa is now in front of him: "You want to take Costa away for 500 million dollars? Hoeness Is it true that Si has been the king in Germany for so long that he doesn't even understand the market conditions?"

"Yes, the value of a top organization midfielder like Costa is indeed more than 1500 million US dollars." Poirot, who is good at calculating, agreed, "Last year, the transfer fee of Djorkaeff to Inter Milan was 1800 million US dollars. Costa's price can't be lower than this!"

"Hercule, you are in charge of this aspect. If the other party is unwilling to pay a high price, you should know what to do. Don't worry about the friendship between me and Beckenbauer. This time it is Hoeness who came to negotiate. , it means that Franz doesn't want to get involved in this deal... I mean, do you understand?"

"I see, boss." Poirot nodded, then exited Zhuang Minge's office, and hurried to the airport to meet the visiting Hoeness.

In this way, Hoeness, who had rushed to Florence, did not even see Zhuang Mingge, and was dragged to the negotiating table by Poirot who came to greet him.

From the very beginning of the negotiation, the atmosphere between Hoeness and Poirot was a bit tense—these two people belonged to the kind of people who could spend a penny in half, and it was natural for them to have friction.

"3000 million U.S. dollars?!" Hearing the price offered by Poirot, Hoeness almost burst into anger, and said, "This is a world-record price. It is absolutely impossible for us Bayern to accept such a price to introduce a team." A player who is not yet the absolute main player in Florence! So I sincerely hope that you can take this offer seriously, and 500 million US dollars is already a very reasonable price."

Facing the furious Hoeness, Poirot was unmoved at all. Sitting at the other end of the conference table, he looked at the Bayern general manager very calmly and said: "Yuri Djorkaeff is not ours either. Absolutely the main force, but last year he transferred to Inter Milan for 1800 million, so Costa, who is better than Djorkaeff in ability, will definitely not be lower than this price... In this way, as long as he spends 2500 million US dollars, The Portuguese are yours."

The stingy Hoeness heard that Costa would spend 2500 million U.S. dollars, so he stopped doing it immediately. You must know that under his management, Bayern did not have a player whose transfer fee exceeded 2007 million U.S. dollars until 2000. Now this time Just let him spend so much money to buy a midfielder?There are no doors!

However, although Bayern Munich can often introduce excellent players at a price lower than that of other competitors in Germany, in Italy, where Bayern's sphere of influence cannot be touched at all, Hoeness's approach of overpowering others and taking advantage of them is obviously not going to succeed. of.

Especially when Beckenbauer repeatedly warned him to maintain a good relationship with Florence, Hoeness did not dare to use small tricks, so as not to anger Florence.

Since Hoeness was in a very passive position at the beginning, when Poirot "inadvertently" revealed that Real Madrid and Inter Milan were also very interested in Costa, he had been biting the $1500 million price of Hernes. Neston faltered for a moment.

Hoeness knew very well that if Effenberg had not been dealt with before, it could be said that Fiorentina would not let anyone go to reply to Heathfield, but if Costa, who had already decided to leave Fiorentina, became a player of another team, then he would In the club, there is really no face left - a general manager who can't even meet the basic requirements of the head coach, so what if he can make money?Bayern is the face of German football. What they need most is excellent results, not how much profit they can make every year.

In the end, after some difficult bargaining, the two sides finally reached an agreement on the price of 2000 million US dollars, and this also marked the official countdown of Costa's days in Florence.

While Costa and Bayern were discussing personal treatment, Poirot was not idle, but began to introduce the players on the shortlist.

Finland international Sami Hyypia joined from Willem II for $400 million and Monaco sold main midfielder Claude Makelele to Viola for $600 million in Ajax Ljungberg, who didn't get many chances, joined Fiorentina with a worth of 350 million US dollars; at the same time, Fiorentina also announced on the official website that the club will recall Di Natale and Pirlo in the summer. Young players, fans of the Viola next season will be able to see these two teenagers wearing purple shirts at the Frankie Stadium.

Therefore, in just one week after the end of the Champions League final, Fiorentina continuously broke out heavy news in the transfer market: First, midfielder Rui Costa transferred to the Bundesliga class bully Bayern at a price of 2000 million US dollars. In Munich, Violet then used this huge sum of money to sign five people in a row, quite likely to make a fortune in the transfer market.

At this time, the managers of other teams are still waiting to grab the stars emerging from the World Cup, so when they noticed Fiorentina's move to stir up trouble in the transfer market, they were all very surprised: Come on, don't they plan to see if there is any good stuff in the World Cup before making a move, but just start to act so impatiently? !

Maybe other people might hesitate to change this kind of thing, but for Zhuang Mingge, a time traveler, it doesn't matter how well the players perform in the World Cup and European Cup. Only those players who have proved themselves in the previous life are brought in. value.

In this way, under the surprised and uncertain gaze of the outside world, Fiorentina still started the process of changing the team in an orderly manner according to the established pace!
