"Mauro Camoranesi, born in 1976, is now 24 years old. He is good at positions: right midfielder, right winger, and attacking midfielder. He has first-class ability and good potential. He currently plays for the Blue Cross of the Mexican Serie A. The club¡¯s bottom line, seven million dollars.¡±
Dick breathed a sigh of relief. This high-end scout card was indeed worth the money. It not only told Camoranesi's current position, but also judged the psychology of the Mexican Blue Cross club that owned him. The bottom line is seven million US dollars This will be quite helpful for signings, at least it won't cost too much money.
"Robert, ask the club to send a letter to the Blue Cross Club in Mexico requesting the purchase of their Argentine midfielder Mauro Camoranesi, and ask the transfer department to send someone there. If you have any information, please contact me and try to get a chance to buy their Argentine midfielder Mauro Camoranesi. Bring him back to me for a price of less than eight million dollars." Dick immediately called Marriner. Now the transfer department also needs to fully obey Dick's command, and all signings need to get his. He agreed, so it was natural for him to make this call. Now of course it is impossible for Dick to go to Mexico by himself and come to Levante to dig up Vicente. It is because he is very interested in this boy Vicente, otherwise Just send a staff member.
Dick has no interest in micromanaging everything. There are so many staff in the transfer department who are not just idle. It is roughly estimated that the number of players leaving Atletico Madrid this season will be double digits, and the number of players introduced will not be less than double digits. If If he had to handle all the signings, Dick would be exhausted.
Vicente and Camoranesi, bought these two people in one go, Atletico Madrid's wings will have no problem, at least they will be stronger than last season. In the midfield, Belleron and Barahadi Ke is definitely going to stay. If these two outstanding central midfielders don't stay, Atletico Madrid's ability to form a new fighting force may be delayed even further.
Both Beleron and Baraja are currently participating in the European Championships. Beleron is a member of the national team, while Baraja was selected for the national team through his outstanding performance at the end of the season. It is unlikely that they will become the national team. The main force, but also possesses very strong strength.
"Serena is still a little behind in playing defensive midfielder. He is not too young. Although the Italian defensive midfielder is very reliable, he is still a little behind" Dick thought in his mind: "If we can get rid of Mark first, If Lailaiwill Real Madrid still be that strong?¡±
Makelele currently plays for Celta Vigo in La Liga and is not a particularly outstanding star. In fact, his role was only taken seriously after he moved to Real Madrid. Redondo's departure made everyone Everyone feels that Real Madrid cannot make up for the loss of the midfielder. However, the presence of Mak¨¦l¨¦l¨¦ has allowed Real Madrid to basically have no losses in defense and have strengthened it. Although he cannot replace Redondo in terms of offense, in terms of defense, he has already improved. Well done.
Real Madrid's campaign has not yet been settled, and Makelele cannot be tempted by Real Madrid. What needs to be solved now are two problems. The first is how to impress Celta Vigo, and the second is how to impress Makelele himself. ¡
Celta is not the team that was relegated several times later. They are now one of the strongest teams in La Liga. Although they have never won the Spanish League and Copa del Rey, they are a standard team. Giant killers, whether they are giants like Real Madrid or Barcelona, ??have been massacred by them with big scores. The current Celta Vigo team is also a very good team. Last season, they ranked seventh. It is not easy to poach people from them after missing out on the European competition.
Dick planned to spend a lot of money on Makelele - the reason is very simple. The value of a defensive midfielder like Makelele is huge, and his role on the court is particularly huge. Dick didn't know that Makelele would transfer to Real Madrid at that time. How much was he worth at the time, but he knew that if enough dollars were spent, Celta would not be able to let him go.
Celta Vigo is at its strongest now, especially in the midfield. The Russian duo Karpin and Mostovoi allow their midfield to not fall behind against any giants. In this case Makelele's presence seems weaker, and he is not a French international - Makelele, who was still playing right back in the 1998 World Cup, wanted to enter the national team as Thuram's substitute, but Jacquet did Tell him that what the national team needs is a midfielder. In the past two years, Makelele has become an excellent midfielder at Celta Vigo, but now is the most glorious time for the French national team. Among the stars from major clubs, Makelele, who only plays for Celta Vigo, seems inconspicuous, so he was not selected for the national team this time. Taking this as an opportunity to impress Makelele is a good opportunity.
Although it is far from being comparable to Real Madrid?, but Atletico Madrid is also one of the strongest teams in Spain, and its reputation is much greater than Celta Vigo. Even if it has been a bit down in recent years, it still has a considerable reputation, and Atletico Madrid can play in the UEFA Cup next season. , which invisibly adds another line of advantages.
Regardless of whether it is Vicente or Makelele, if the teams that historically want to introduce them take action, Atletico Madrid will be unable to resist. After all, Atletico Madrid is still far behind Valencia and Real Madrid. However, in If they intercept and kill before they can take action, the possibility of success is still much greater!
What's more, Valencia and Real Madrid are Atletico Madrid's opponents in the league. If Atletico Madrid wants to hit the top four next season, it must face the challenges of these powerful opponents. In this case, weakening the opponent's strength will be a problem for Atletico Madrid. It is also quite necessary for competition.
After thinking it over carefully, Dick made a third call.
¡°We made an offer to Celta Vigo to introduce their French midfielder Claude Makelele,¡± Dick said on the phone.
¡°How much is the initial quote?¡± Marriner asked.
"Ten million dollars." Dick said after pondering for a moment.
"Isn't it a little too much" Marina hesitated.
"Not much. The value of players is rising very fast now, and ten million dollars may not be able to impress Celta. We may have to add more pounds next." Dick said to Marriner: "We need to speed up our actions. Now, many teams are busy with internal disputes. What we have to do is to take advantage of these guys!"
After hanging up the phone, Dick thought carefully again. The transfer funds he can mobilize now are 45 million, of which 5 million will be spent on Vicente and Camoranesi. The maximum he can spend on himself is 10 million, which means that he still has at least 30 million US dollars on hand to use. Even if he spends half of it on Makelele, there is no problem - after all, the club will still sell some people, and those funds He can use it too.
If Vicente, Camoranesi and Makelele all come, then the midfielder will be almost enough. With these three people plus Belleron and Baraja, this midfielder is comparable to any team. It won't make any difference!
Next is the striker. At least introduce a striker who can bring a lot of goals. This is what Dick needs to do now. Hasselbaink is very good, but he is not a direct descendant of Dick, and he has the characteristics of a mercenary. And his characteristics as a pure shooter make Dick not very interested in him. If he plays as a lone forward, the forward needs to become a fulcrum in the frontcourt. Hasselbaink is not enough. Even if he is a pure shooter, Dick had better options, too.
However, the choice of defense line gives Dick a headache. Gamarra performed well last season, but he is not a top sweeper. However, if Dick wants to buy a top sweeper he already has a target. , that is Ayala, the captain of the Argentine national team, but now Valencia has begun to extend an olive branch to Ayala, who cannot be the main player in Milan. It is not that there are no sweepers that meet Dick's requirements, but he can't buy them. Just come, like Nesta
Now it seems that the only choice is to buy a better central defender, one with strong frontal defensive ability. It doesn't matter if he turns slowly. La Liga central defenders generally don't turn quickly anyway.
Chamot is a good candidate, but his mind is no longer on Atletico Madrid. In the middle of last season, he almost transferred to AC Milan. Although it did not take shape, AC Milan seems to have made up his mind this summer. To take away the Argentine central defender, if they want to sell Ayala, they must also add a central defender.
Sandy is loyal to Atletico Madrid, but his strength is a bit lacking. He is just fine as a substitute. Next season, he will have to attack on all fronts. He is still not enough to be the main force.
"Central defender, forward" Dick muttered in his mind - from a certain point of view, he values ??midfield players more. The three newly decided signings are all in the midfield, and they are from Atletico Madrid itself. The midfield strength of the team is already the strongest - in Dick's view, it is necessary to make one's strongest link stronger first and then tinker with other areas. of.
"Tristan, Trezeguet." After thinking about it for a long time, Dick wrote these two names on the paper in front of him.
Both of these men are excellent centers. From a tactical point of view, Tristan is better now. He is strong, can become a tactical fulcrum in the frontcourt, and can also score goals. Even if he maintains his peak period, It won't take long, but Dick may not want him to last forever, and Trezeguet is more capable of scoring goals than Tristan. He can easily become invisible on the court, but when he appears in front of the camera, he is often accompanied by breakthroughs.?!
And these two people are not so easy to buy. Tristan's performance in Mallorca last season was extremely eye-catching. Many top clubs are eyeing him, including Real Madrid, Deportivo and Barron. In West Asia, the performance of Anelka, introduced by Real Madrid last season, was mediocre. The combination of Morientes and Raul seemed a little difficult to score points. Raul's state has dropped a bit compared to before, and Morientes has again Not a pure shooter and Deportivo also needs a center to cooperate with MacKay. Pandiani's performance last season was average.
As for Trezeguet, his performance in Ligue 1 last season was equally eye-catching, and he was also selected for the French national team this time. It is not easy to buy him.
"We can only take a look first. It would be better if we could buy one of these two people. If we can't buy it we have to find another way" Looking at the name on the paper in front of him, Dick murmured. .
