Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

The two sides have reached an agreement on the transfer fee.

As time goes by, the competition between Leicester City and Chelsea for Li Lei has become more intense.

Before the end of the World Cup, the two sides finally reached a consensus on the transfer fee.

Leicester City successfully brought Li Lei back to the King Power Stadium at a price of 50 million euros!

This is also equivalent to the price of the penalty for breach of contract in Li Lei's Chelsea contract.

So far in this transfer market, Li Lei's transfer fee is second only to James Rodriguez, who just joined Real Madrid.

The signing ceremony between the two sides will be held at the King Power Stadium after the World Cup, which is also to boost the confidence of fans in the new season of the Premier League in advance.

On July 13, 2014, the final of the Brazil World Cup was held at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

The two teams were Germany and Argentina.

This was the eighth time that Germany entered the World Cup final, while Argentina had not entered the final since 1990.

Several of Li Lei's Chelsea teammates, such as Ramirez's Brazil and Hazard and De Bruyne's Belgium, had been eliminated earlier.

This match was undoubtedly a battle between the American giants Argentina and the European powerhouse Germany.

The Maracana Stadium was filled with a tense atmosphere.

In the audience, Argentine fans waved national flags, and German supporters also held banners to cheer for the players.

The two teams will fight to the death in 90 minutes just to compete for the golden trophy.

In the end, in overtime, the German team defeated Argentina 1-0 with Gotze's goal and won the 2014 Brazil World Cup championship.

This is also the fourth time in the history of the German team that won the World Cup, becoming the second team to win four World Cups after Brazil.

At the 119th minute of the game, Schweinsteiger passed the ball, Gotze received the ball, made a feint to pass Romero, and pushed the ball into the far corner with his left foot. The Argentine goalkeeper Romero was unable to stop it, and the German team scored a decisive goal.

In the end, the German team defeated Argentina with a score of 1-0 and became the champion of the 2014 Brazil World Cup.

The dream of Argentina and Messi fell through again, and they missed the World Cup championship.

As the Brazil World Cup came to an end, Li Lei's grand vacation also came to an end.

When the plane rushed into the sky with a roar, he had already boarded the flight back to London.

Those footballs, samba dances, tropical beaches, rolling waves, and unrestrained and passionate Brazilian beauties have all turned into beautiful memories and remained in Li Lei's heart.

The transfer has been settled, and he will also return to Leicester City to report and participate in the preparations for the new season.

Although he bid farewell to the freedom and fun of Brazilian life temporarily, Li Lei's heart is full of expectations for the future.

As the plane shuttled through the clouds, Li Lei looked at the sky outside the cabin with a firm light in his eyes.

This temporary farewell was just to prepare for the next greater return.

Go to Leicester City, go to the King Power Stadium, where his long-awaited new journey is waiting for him!

As the Brazil World Cup came to an end, a passionate and hot summer is about to end. At the end of this summer, the transfer market frequently released blockbuster bombs.

First, James Rodriguez joined Real Madrid at a sky-high price of 80 million euros.

Then Li Lei returned to Leicester City for 50 million euros, and Real Madrid sold winger Di Maria to Manchester United for 68.6 million euros.

The three transfers cost hundreds of millions of euros, shocking the football world.

James Rodriguez's introduction and Di Maria's departure made Real Madrid seem to have no losses, while Li Lei's return made Leicester City fans excited.

Before the transfer window closed this summer, top stars found new homes.

Chelsea also carried out controversial and drastic reforms this summer.

With the departure of Li Lei, Eto'o transferred to Everton for 32 million euros and took striker Lukaku with him.

Midfielder Lampard was loaned to Manchester City, and Demba Ba moved to Turkish giants Besiktas.

After selling these main players, Chelsea introduced the 32 million euro midfielder Fabregas from Barcelona.

The team has undergone a transition from old to new, but these changes have also attracted a lot of criticism from the outside world. Will Chelsea's strength be affected by the loss of a supernova like Li Lei?

And Mourinho seems to be increasingly at odds with the club's top management, and the contradictions between the two are gradually exposed.

The new season is about to start, and Chelsea's internal and external troubles make their preparations difficult.

The halo of the Champions League champion cannot conceal the problems within the team.

However, Mourinho began to reorganize the team after gaining the support of club chairman Abramovich.

Compared with Chelsea, the new coach of Leicester City, Ranieri, is facing a more difficult situation.

In order to sign back Li Lei, the team has invested a sky-high amount of 50 million euros.

This makes Ranieri headache about the remaining transfer funds.

"Signing Li Lei is certainly right, but we still lack reinforcement in other positions." Ranieri said to the club's top management.

"The existing funds are only enough to buy one or two first-class players. This is far from enough to support our league campaign."

"I need more funds to buy young new players and gradually establish a competitive system."

The top management said that they will continue to strive for transfer funds, but the Premier League giants are gathered together, and it is a huge challenge for Ranieri to build a competitive team with limited resources.

However, with a top star like Li Lei, the team can at least be guaranteed more points.

What makes the Leicester City top management even more gratified is that Li Lei's joining has greatly stimulated the fans' enthusiasm for consumption.

The tickets for the new season were sold out quickly as soon as they went on sale, setting a record in the team's history.

Various peripheral products, especially the new season jerseys printed with Li Lei's ball number, were in short supply.

With the joy of "Oriental Pearl Returning Home", fans enthusiastically bought tickets and merchandise to show their support.

This directly brought a considerable increase in revenue to the club.

The senior management was very satisfied with this: "Li Lei can not only bring goal guarantees, but also stimulate commercial value. He is simply a living gold mine!"

The commercial effect of the star has initially appeared, which is great news for Leicester City, which lacks financial strength.

With the financial support brought by fans' consumption, the management can also operate the team more calmly and make every preparation for the new season!

In order to make the team have a better competitive state in the new season, the chairman of Leicester City made a bold decision-letting Ranieri serve as the team's head coach and manager.

"Ranieri not only has rich coaching experience, but also understands the current transfer market very well." The chairman explained, "Letting him serve as a manager can maximize his professional value and make the team management and tactics more closely coordinated."

Ranieri also welcomed this arrangement, "As a manager, I will do my best to get the most needed talents for the team."

Former England international Craig Shakespeare will continue to serve as the team's assistant manager, supporting Ranieri with his connections and insights as a player, and he was an assistant manager during Pearson's time.
