Chapter 262 Who says a poor phoenix is ​​worse than a chicken (Part 1)

Blackburn's side was very happy to win the UEFA Cup, but the other side was not happy.

Not long after the UEFA Cup final ended, Galatasaray started to get angry. Galatasaray executive Turan harshly rebuked Blackburn in front of the media.

"Blackburn are liars, the biggest liars I have ever seen. They have reached a verbal agreement with us, and our two families have reached a transfer price of 12.8 million euros. We also allow Blackburn and The two players were in contact, but now they have regretted it.”

"They are the most shameless club I have ever seen. They are completely treating us like monkeys."

Galatasaray executive Turan had a ferocious expression when he criticized Blackburn. Galatasaray's current competitive situation is very poor, and more than 10 million euros is life-saving money for Galatasaray.

As a Turkish giant, Galatasaray is not afraid of selling players. After all, they have the backing of Turkey, and it is every Turkish player's dream to join Galatasaray in Turkey. Therefore, Galatasaray definitely has no shortage of good players and prospects.

Selling two players can earn more than 10 million euros. Galatasaray is very satisfied with this transaction.

But only a few days have passed, and Blackburn has gone back on his word. According to news from Blackburn, Blackburn head coach George finally denied the transfer. Therefore, the transfer, which was only one step away from completion, failed to succeed in the end.

Turan was really furious after hearing the news from Blackburn.

Therefore, there were even several swear words during the interview.

"Conspiracy, this is definitely a conspiracy." Trim, who was very frustrated after the game, also stood up. "This was definitely a well-planned conspiracy. Blackburn used such a despicable method to disrupt our preparations. It was so shameful for them to win. It was such a despicable way for them to win the game."

"If it were an upright game, I would be convinced that I lost. But they used such despicable methods, and I will never be convinced."

Facing the accusations from Turan and Trim, George looked very surprised when facing reporters.

"I find it funny to say that we are liars. I am very interested in Suker and Emre and hope to bring them in. But their prices are too high. And you also know that we have Klose in our club. If After bringing in Suk, what should Miro do? Is Miro not as good as Suk?”

"Besides, I still have Drogba in my team. My team's forward line is enough."

"As for Emre, you also saw it. In the UEFA Cup final, his performance was very unstable. What my team needs now is players who can improve the record immediately, not young players like Emre who are unstable. players.”

"I just denied the player transfer from the perspective of my coach. I think Mr. Turan made a fuss."

"Of course I know what we did was inappropriate. But I don't think we are cheaters. If we don't sign a contract for a day, then we have the right to choose."

"Business or sale? It's a matter of mutual consent. It would be too funny to accuse us like this because we didn't buy any players."

Of course, George couldn't say that he did it on purpose.

"Coach Levy, Coach Trim said this was a conspiracy. It was a move you deliberately made for the UEFA Cup final."

When George heard the reporter's question, he smiled disdainfully.

"When we negotiated with Galatasaray, the UEFA Cup competition had not even entered the quarter-finals. Am I a god? Do I know that Galatasaray can enter the UEFA Cup final? You can ask Coach Terim, Do you need me to tell him the lottery numbers for the next draw?”

The reporter also smiled when he heard George's question.

Although many people think it is too coincidental. Even Trim directly thought this was a conspiracy. But thinking about it carefully, everyone thinks it is impossible. In February, the UEFA Cup was in full swing. There are many strong teams among them.

How could George know in advance that his opponent in the final was Galatasaray.

So after hearing what George said, it was funny for the reporter to think about it. This is really just a coincidence.

George smiled shamelessly in his heart. In the UEFA Cup, there are many strong teams. There are Juventus, Roma, Arsenal, and Leeds United, which one is not a super strong team in European football. Galatasaray, if he hadn't entered the UEFA Cup this time, who would he be?

Only George, an outlier, knows the strength of Galatasaray.

And Galatasaray’s schedule is also very good. I didn’t encounter many strong teams along the way. When the top 16 came out, George almost understood that Galatasaray would definitely enter the top four.

Although George doesn't know when he will meet Galatasaray.

But George knew that he would definitely encounter Galatasaray. Maybe it was in the semi-finals, maybe in the finals, that's why George would use such methods. If Galatasaray is eliminated by other teams, it will not lose anything at that time.

But once he really encounters Galatasaray, his hand will be a bomb. It will blow up Galatasaray directly.

Sure enough, they met Galatasaray in the final. George completely ruined Galatasaray's preparations and easily defeated Galatasaray in the final.

This is why Trim is still upset.

Although George has explained, Galatasaray has been holding on to it.

But George never responded to them again. Because George has more important things to do.

…………

"Fifty thousand pounds? Are you kidding me, Mr. Korsting?"

George smiled and talked to Korsting. In his heart, he cursed this person, who was simply a standard vampire.

"Joke? No, no, no, Coach Levy. I am talking to you very seriously now. You have to know how great Sami's contribution is in your team. Your team was the second team with the fewest goals conceded in the Premier League last season. Sami's contribution is obvious to all. Fifty thousand pounds is not expensive at all."

George was very angry when he heard Korsting's words.

In George's current team, Hyypia is indeed very important. At the age of 27, he is in his prime. Now in Blackburn's defense, Ferdinand is very strong, but a little irritable. And Ferdinand often has the problem of distraction during the game.

Therefore, Hyypiä is the mainstay of Blackburn's defense.

Hyypiä is currently receiving the highest salary in Blackburn. A weekly salary of 15,000 pounds.

As Blackburn won the League Cup, George knew that there would be players who wanted to change their contracts. George also admired Hyypiä very much. Therefore, George also thought about his contract. Giving him about 30,000 pounds was the highest salary George could accept.

George hoped that this time, Hyypiä would be given a weekly salary of about 25,000 pounds at most.

Unexpectedly, Hyypiä's agent asked for a weekly salary of 50,000 pounds.

George shook his head.

"Mr. Korsting, in the current Premier League, a defender wants to get 50,000 pounds. Do you think this is possible? You can calculate how many players in the current Premier League have a salary of more than 50,000 pounds." George sneered.

Although the salary in the Premier League has increased rapidly in recent years. But there are still very few players with a weekly salary of 50,000 pounds. Not to mention a defender.

If Blackburn pays Hyypia 50,000 pounds, then what kind of salary should Miku, Pires, and Klose offer?

"But there are teams willing to pay Sammy more than 40,000 pounds a week. Sammy is the best defender in the Premier League, and there are more than one or two teams interested in him."

George was stunned. But he remained calm.

"Mr. Corstin, 50,000 pounds is absolutely impossible. Let's talk about this today, and go back and think about a reliable price."

George didn't know which club had contacted Hyypia, so he could only let Corstin leave today. When Corstin left, George's face finally darkened.

"Evan, go and find out. Which club contacted Hyypia?"

…………

George only received a call from Corstin once in the following period.

A few days later, Evan came to George's office. "George, I have already found out. There is indeed a club that has contacted Hyypia. And they seem to have a good talk."

"Which club?"

Damn. Only a few clubs can come to Blackburn to poach players. Either Manchester United or Arsenal. Maybe the owner of Leeds United is crazy.

"Liverpool."

"Liverpool?" Any club has thought about it, but not Liverpool.

"I heard that Houllier personally talked to Hyypia. I have some evidence. Should we..."

George shook his head. This kind of thing is not just Liverpool. Even Blackburn has reached an agreement with the players in private. Unless you want to completely break up with Liverpool, there is no need to break this paper.

I just didn't expect it. It turned out that Liverpool was the one who wanted to target Blackburn players.

Blackburn is the second in the Premier League and the champion of the League Cup. This season, they can participate in the Champions League. What about Liverpool? After the establishment of the Premier League, Liverpool's performance has not been good. This is even more so in recent years.

Given their current situation, dare to come to poach Blackburn players?

But it seems that Hyypia and Liverpool have a good talk. After Colstin came over to talk to George, he only called George once. Seeing that he didn't seem to be in a hurry, George knew that Hyypia was still on good terms with Liverpool.

"What does Liverpool have that is worth Hyypia's switch to? Salary? Or something else?"

George was a little annoyed.
