40 Winter signings

Thank God, it looks like the abysmal character of the Champions League draw has given Inter Milan good luck in Serie A, with a last-minute own goal away at Atalanta in the final round before the winter break Draw the opponent.

Of course, if it's just like this, it's not lucky. The defeat of Juventus this round made Inter Milan catch up with Juventus to four points before the winter break. This is indeed a season where the points will not be too high, ac Milan are currently in second place, just two points ahead of Inter Milan.

After half a season of running-in, Inter Milan's tactics have almost taken shape. The middle and lower reaches of Serie A are not as easy to score points as Leon imagined. At least from the current situation, everyone has made a lot of mistakes. .

I hope that after the winter break of about 20 days, Inter Milan can catch up in the second half of the season. January and February in the second half of the season are the key battles for points. If they can't get enough points before the Champions League knockout, Frequent and intensive matches are likely to make Inter Milan fall behind in Serie A.

Leaving aside the uproar caused by the encounter between Inter Milan and Chelsea in the top 16, after returning to Argentina for Christmas, Leon also quickly received news from Inter Milan.

Tevez's transfer has basically been finalized. With 15 million pounds, the black shop Porto has almost tripled the profit. This is still Inter Milan's quick move. If Tevez plays like this for another two or three seasons, by then Without 30 to 40 million, Porto would not have made such an easy move.

However, as a transfer condition for Tevez, Inter Milan must loan Martins to Porto for half a season for free, and after half a season, Porto has the right of first refusal.

A black shop is a black shop. I know that I have to take into account the performance. Martins has scored three goals in Serie A in the past half season. He simply agreed to loan Martins to Porto.

The only cheating thing is that Inter Milan did not go well when they asked Sampdoria to buy Tony, because Sampdoria really relied on Tony, a powerful center.

But money can make ghosts, under the money offensive of Inter Milan, Sampdoria had no choice but to surrender, 12 million pounds, but this transfer will be carried out in the summer of 2005, that is to say Sampdoria is selling first and then renting. They asked Tony to be loaned to them for the end of the season.

Anyway, Vieri is in good shape now, and the introduction of Tony is also for next season, so Inter Milan didn't say anything, and agreed to Sampdoria's request.

So far, the signings on the front line have been completed, Tevez joined, and Tony joined next season.

Speaking of Moratti's summer and winter, he has already spent a lot. If Leonwell hadn't earned a lot for Inter Milan and Inter Milan's current performance is good, it is estimated that Moratti is going to be due to debts at this moment. Too many to go to jail.

However, these two transfers do not mean the end of Inter Milan's signings. Inter Milan still needs a backup central defender. This is what Mancini meant. In Mancini's eyes, Cannavaro and Materazzi basically It is unshakable, but what if one of Malaysia and Cannavarona is injured?

It's just that it's not easy to choose a central defender as a substitute for a while. Choose someone who is too strong. The first is too expensive, and the second is who is willing to be a substitute? Looking for one that is too weak? That's not good, Inter Milan's defense finally got kicked out, and it would be a tragedy if some cheating defender suddenly returned to the pre-liberation.

Therefore, Inter Milan focused on experienced players who were not demanding because of their age. Are you old? You always want to win the championship. Now that Inter Milan has the opportunity to compete in the Champions League and Serie A, it is still very attractive to these veterans.

"We also need to buy another player in the midfield. It is best to be young and have training value. This is a long-term investment." Mancini said this to Leon. Leon is not a team executive. There is no need for Mancini to talk to Leon about this, but after many things, Mancini always has the habit of discussing with Leon.

In Man II's heart, Leon is more than just the core of the team.

For this candidate, Leon asked Mancini what type of person he needed, and what position he might be in. Mancini said that the best position is the central midfielder, a young central midfielder with training value? This is indeed a bit of a headache for Leon. Other teams with training value are tightly covered, and Inter Milan can't pay a sky-high price to introduce a so-called genius.

Leon would like to recommend Mascherano, but firstly, after Mano came, the proportion of the barbecue gang has to increase again, and secondly, Mano is now the iron gate of Porto's midfielder, and it is impossible to start from 10 million. I bought it from a black shop. Three years later, Mano is now in the promotion period. It is better to play the main force in Porto than to play as a substitute at Inter Milan. The level of the Portuguese Super League is not bad, and Porto can play in the Champions League every year.

So Leon quickly ruled out Mascherano, hey, how about Montelivo? The poor version of Pirlo, ahem, but Leon told Mancini about Montelivo.

"Fiorentina won't let people go, and Montelivo is a genius that the whole of Italy is staring at." Mancini replied to Leon.

Cough cough, it's really difficult to handle. You said that there are many experienced central defenders in the world, but in the 21st century when there is a shortage of defensive midfielders and midfielders, it is indeed true that you want to introduce a valuable player. Difficult.

In the end, he didn't know if Leon had a flash of inspiration, but he suddenly remembered a name.

At this time, Xiao He had just turned nineteen, and Xiao He was just showing his horns, the Croatian demon star - Luka Modric!

The Magic Flute is still hanging out in the Croatian League, and it is not well-known, and how much was the most expensive deal in the Croatian League last year? It is estimated that Modric will not exceed 4 million pounds even if he coaxes and cheats. Although the 19-year-old Magic Flute still has many shortcomings, it is indeed in line with the current situation of Inter Milan, isn't it?

It's just that in the next few years, it is estimated that Tottenham will have to find a new midfielder core, but don't be afraid, Tottenham's performance will still be good after the magic flute left, isn't it?

So, after careful consideration, Leon recommended Modric to Mancini, and after sending scouts to watch some videos of Modric, Mancini also felt that this kid was very aura and his style was very Leon smell.

Wait, style has its own taste?

I don't know if I don't look at it. I was shocked when I saw it. It's my damn little wings again. Now too many young people in the world have learned their own playing style, and the young Magic Flute is no surprise.

After confirming Modric, Inter Milan also quickly made an offer, and Dinamo Zagreb also responded quickly, 4 million pounds, a good number, after all, at this time Mo Delic has not yet participated in the World Cup, and people don't realize the value of Little Magic Flute.

Adding 4 million pounds is already a sky-high price for the Croatian League team, so soon, Modric's transfer was also declared a success.

It is said that after Modric learned that he joined the Italian giants Inter Milan, he was almost too excited to sleep, because it meant that the young Modric would become teammates with his idol Leonville!

Sure enough, after watching the video of Modric playing football, Leon knew that this kid must be his fan, because Modric even imitated his own preparations for free kicks.

Otherwise, how could Mancini say that Modric's playing style has his own taste?

After Modric joined, Inter Milan also started winter training. Tevez and Modric must seize the time to integrate into the team. Mancini needs Tevez to play his role as soon as possible, so that Inter Milan's tactics can take shape. . As for Modric, Mancini doesn't have high demands on him, as long as he doesn't cheat. Anyway, after Modric comes, he can play in the Coppa Italia for exercise. Now the only puzzle for Inter Milan is the experienced substitute central defender .

However, since what is needed is rich experience, Inter Milan does not have to worry about the speed of their integration into the team, so in the UAE, Inter Milan began their ten-day winter training warm-up.

There, they played a game called the Gulf Emirates Cup with several clubs in the United Arab Emirates. Although it was only a small game, the West Asians are rich. Inter Milan easily won five million euros in entry fees and The championship reward of 3.5 million euros, not only did not spend much money on this trip, but also made almost 10 million euros. This kind of business that is guaranteed to make money without losing money, Inter Milan hopes to do it a few more times.

In this Gulf Chiefs Cup, Tevez's performance is very eye-catching. He is tougher than Recoba. Although his skills are not as good as Recoba's, Tevez has a spirit of daring to fight with bayonets, and his ability to hold the ball Very good, Mancini is also very grateful for the success of this transfer.

And the little magic flute also got a chance to play. When he partnered with Leon for the first time, the little magic flute was still very jerky, but after Leon encouraged him a few times, the little magic flute mustered up his courage. Let people feel his difference.

It is indeed full of aura and talent. Mancini also saw the value of the four million pounds from Modric. Now, Inter Milan is basically ready, just waiting for the last piece of the puzzle to be in place and the second half The start of the season.

According to Mancini's plan, Inter Milan will overtake the league in the second half of the season. Of course, if Inter Milan has to abandon the Champions League and the league, Mancini will choose to abandon the Champions League.

After all, there is still the Champions League next year, but for the league, Inter Milan needs a league champion too much!
