79: The Signing Begins

79: The Signing Begins

When the elder Alemani held a press conference, Jose had already traveled across Europe and arrived in Kiev, Ukraine.

He came here, of course, not to introduce Shevchenko, the nuclear warhead who is already well-known in Europe. This super striker had already transferred to the Serie A giants AC Milan last summer, and scored 24 goals in the season that just ended. Ball won the top scorer in Serie A. When it was so popular and hot, Mallorca's poor transfer funds were probably enough to buy this shooter's leg, or his left leg, which he was not good at.

In fact, even last summer, it was impossible for Mallorca to introduce Shevchenko. In the previous two seasons, Shevchenko had shocked the whole of Europe. In the two seasons, she played 14 times in the Champions League and scored an amazing Seventeen goals, the major giants have already been paying attention to him, and AC Milan has been observing him for more than a year, and has established friendship with Dynamo Kiev and Shevchenko himself, so that he can The relatively low price of 23 million US dollars signed this top striker. Whether it is attractiveness or connections, it is impossible for Mallorca to compare with top giants like AC Milan.

His target is also not Rebrov, the remaining Kiev Twins. The Ukrainian has moved to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League this summer. The transfer fee of 18 million US dollars is the Ukrainian player. It will be the second highest record, second only to Shevchenko. Although Jose knows that Rebrov will fail in his next career, he also knows that now Mallorca wants to buy Rebrov. idiot's dream...

This time he went to Kiev, not for other people, but for a versatile player in the midfield - Georgian Kaha Karadze.

This year is already the fourth season for the 23-year-old versatile midfielder to play for Dynamo Kiev. He made his debut very early. He went abroad to play football and came to Kiev in the first three seasons. In the first three seasons, his performance was quite stable. However, this season, he encountered some troubles.

Shortly after the start of the Ukrainian league, Karadze was injured. The ankle ligament injury made him rest until half a month ago before resuming the game. However, he performed mediocre in these two games. AC Milan, which seemed to have a little interest in him Backed off, which also made Dynamo Kiev owner Igor Surgis a little anxious.

You must know that when he transferred from Georgia that year, Kaladze signed a five-year contract, and now there are only one and a half years left to expire. The interest of AC Milan in Kaladze made Kaladze never cooperate with the team. Renewing the contract, but now that Kaladze has been injured for several months, it is still a problem whether AC Milan likes him. If we observe it for another half a year, Kaladze's contract will only be one year...

For Dynamo Kiev, selling people is also a very important way to maintain the operation of the team.

What Surkis didn't know was that, according to the development of history, it should be Karadze who was disheartened to renew his contract with Dynamo Kiev for three years when he knew that AC Milan was planning to give up on him. Excellence touched the heart of AC Milan again, and was bought by AC Milan at a high price of 18 million—but now there is a person who should not appear. When Jose appeared in Dynamo Kiev, History changes accordingly...

"Mallorca in Spain...the team that won the UEFA Cup last year?"

When Caladze's agent told him that a La Liga team was interested in him and was negotiating with Dynamo Kiev, Caladze was immediately moved.

Although AC Milan is a giant, it is certainly good, but it seems unrealistic now. Although Mallorca has not played in the UEFA Cup this season, it is a bit interesting for Karadze who is used to participating in the Champions League. No, but La Liga is always one of the four major leagues, and it is still the top league that competes with Serie A for the first league position. Playing in such a team, both in terms of income and exposure, will be much better than staying in Dynamo Kiev more.

At the same time, Mallorca won the UEFA Cup last season, which also made Caladze excited. This proves that Mallorca is at least a good team. Going to such a team should also have a future.

You must know that the income of playing in Dynamo Kiev is not very high. Even if it is a championship team in a small league, their salary expenditure will appear to be very economical, and the reason why the four major leagues can attract more players Joining is because they spend more on salary than other leagues. The most basic need of players to play football is to make money...

Although Mallorca is relatively poor in La Liga, compared with teams outside the major leagues, it is still quite threatening. Jose is now trying to seize the fact that Caladze's contract is only more than a year away. , Keep the price down as much as possible, and take this player under his command at a lower price as much as possible.

For Jose, he can save as much as he can now. After all, he needs to make good use of 15 million dollars.

Jose's timing was accurate, and he also grasped the psychology of the players and the opposing club very well-Dynamo Kiev was worried that Kaladze would leave after another year of free transfer, and Kaladze transferred four years ago It only cost them less than half a million dollars when they came here, so they made a profit no matter what.

Finally, after a period of hard bargaining, Mallorca finally reached an agreement with Dynamo Kiev to introduce Georgian player Karadze with a transfer fee of two million US dollars. Karadze himself also agreed to the treatment proposed by Mallorca. After the three parties have signed the contract, Karazze is actually considered a member of Mallorca. Only when the winter transfer window starts on December 1, Mallorca will transfer the transfer fee to Dynamo Kiev. Account, Kaladze flew to Mallorca - the deal would be done.

"Hey, Tony, you have worked hard for these two days of negotiations."

Before he was about to leave Kiev, Jose smiled and said something to a rigid and meticulous middle-aged man beside him, but he only got a "hmm."

Tiger doesn't care about this, because he knows what kind of person Tony Silva is—this is his father's most trusted accountant and person in charge of negotiation. As long as he gives a bottom line, he can negotiate Fight for your best interests on the table.

I am very satisfied with the choice of Jose. He is indeed a full-time accountant who has been with his father for almost 20 years. The deficit was maintained to an acceptable level, and Silva played a big role in it.

"With Tony here, I don't have to worry about accounting." Jose knows that in the West, such accountants often only work for one person all their lives, especially when they help manage the company's finances. This is also left to him by his father. With the huge wealth, some financial matters can be completely entrusted to Silva to do.

It's just that this alone is not enough. If a club wants to run better, talents are necessary. Now the club's redundant staff is slowly being cleaned up in an orderly manner. Fire or put it in another relatively leisurely position, but there are not many good ways to introduce talents.

"I still need a general manager and a technical director... My title of technical director is only suspended temporarily. Who told Juan to quit... The general manager is in charge of business development, and the technical director is in charge of management As for scouting and commenting on players, although I basically know what outstanding players will be in the future, the collection of data and the evaluation of player characteristics still need special personnel to manage."

Jose thought silently, but he also knew that these things could not be rushed, and could only be done step by step.

"Anyway, let's get the club's results up first. If we can't play European competitions next year, it will be a bad thing."

Thinking of this, Jose can only let this kind of thing go. After all, the adjustment of personnel is not something that needs to be done urgently now. Strengthening the strength to ensure the next results is the most important thing.

This time, Jose will fly a long distance—first across Europe and the Mediterranean Sea, then across the entire North Atlantic Ocean to South America, and then to Brazil...

Mallorca has always been more accustomed to using Argentine players, but this time Jose came to South America, but his destination was Brazil.

His goal is the future Brazilian superstar Ronaldo Jr., the guy whose full name is Ronaldinho.

As a time traveler, fan and fan of football novels, Jose naturally knows that Ronaldinho is still in Brazil despite his fame at this time. If you have come into contact with Ronaldinho before, there is a great possibility to bring this player to La Liga in advance.

Of course, Jose is also very interested in Messi, another future king-level star, but now Messi has gone to Barcelona to participate in the trial training, although his contract with Barcelona is not legal (Spain It stipulates that players under the age of seventeen are not allowed to sign a formal professional contract, and FIFA stipulates that players under the age of twenty cannot sign a contract for more than five years), but unless Barcelona let go, I am afraid that they will not be able to get Messi...

"Without Messi, I'll dig Ronaldinho first." With this in mind, Jose came to Brazil—as the main player of the Barcelona Dream Team 2, poaching him ahead of time would definitely have an impact on Barcelona's performance, even if he immediately Loka couldn't keep Ronaldinho, and even if he sold it in the future, he could make a lot of money.

Jose remembered that Ronaldinho's worth in Monaco seemed quite cheap, less than five million U.S. dollars, but because Gremio was dissatisfied with such a small transfer fee, he and Paris Saint-Germain fought for a long time. The transfer was completed in March 2001, but he didn't start playing for Paris Saint-Germain until the 2001-02 season...

Jose is not willing to pull the skin for too long.

Two million was spent on Karazar, and his budget still has 13 million, but again, every penny must be spent wisely.

Stankovic has left, there is a lack of candidates on the left, Karadze can play left forward, left back and even central defender, but his attack power is obviously weaker, Ronaldinho is a talent who can take everything from the left to the middle, and he is also a striker. Okay, with these two people, Mallorca's originally weak left side will become the strongest link.

As for the right wing, Ibagaza and George are actually enough. In the second half of the season, Jose plans to adopt more three-forward tactics, and he also has a good candidate for the center position.

Although Biagini's state has not recovered after his injury, Delgado is a pretty good candidate, at least he can enrich the tactical links, and he has another better candidate, so on the offensive line, there are After Ronaldinho, there is only one person left.

These two people may spend all the transfer fee in his hands, but in Jose's view, it is absolutely worth it. A little investment now will get huge returns in the future.

So no matter what, Ronaldinho is bound to win, he must win!
