Godfather Of Champions

The team has resumed normal training. But in the four days before going to Russia, the team only conducted physical training to reduce the belly of many players during a holiday, restore their physical skills, and let their bodies keep up. Intense training and competition rhythm.

The team is currently not crowded, and there is no need for joint training.

Before leaving for Russia, one thing must be settled. That's the transfer issue of Anelka.

Juventus has made an offer of 12 million pounds to Nottingham Forest. After discussing with Allen, Dunn decided to agree to this price. Although AC Milan’s offer was three million pounds lower than this time last season, but...the money is hard to buy. Dunn just spent three million pounds to buy a season's victory against Anelka. Of course, after this transfer offer is made public, it will definitely make AC Milan quite a bit remark, but Dunn doesn't care about that much-he has robbed others of the Champions League. Are you afraid that the other party will chew your tongue?

Anelka’s broker brothers were notified by Dunn on the phone, telling them that they could go to negotiate with Juventus, and the two immediately flew to Italy. They and their younger brothers couldn’t wait to escape Nottingham.

As long as there is no obstacle from the club, the progress of individual contract negotiations is still very smooth.

Two days later, the two sides finalized all the details, and then on the third day, the day before the Forest team left for Russia, Anelka was no longer seen in the Vilford training base, and the locker room was marked The label of his name was also torn off.

Anelka has already flown to Turin, Italy with his brother for a medical examination.

One more person is missing, and the players of the Forest team did not respond much to this. Some heartless people are still discussing where to go to Moscow.

Anelka is not very popular in the forest team due to his solitary and unsocial character, and no one will miss him when he leaves.

The next morning, when the Forest team was preparing to board the plane at London Heathrow Airport, a press conference was being held in Turin, a city thousands of miles away in northern Italy. This is Juventus's first successful transfer deal this season, returning to the first division. At the press conference, Juventus’s new coach Ranieri smiled and introduced Anelka to the Italian media. .

"...He is a world-class forward, but he is always underestimated. I think he will show his true strength here."

Anelka also gave a speech such as "I am here to prove to you the correctness of this transaction" that made local reporters and fans very happy.

Then, in front of many reporters, the two men together led a Juventus black and white sword striped shirt with Anelka's name and his back number-39.

So far, the two-year relationship between him and Nottingham Forest ends here, and the grudge between him and Tony Dunn has also ended.

If they still have a chance to meet in the Champions League in the future, don't know how they feel about each other?

※※※

After the Forest team arrived in Moscow, they met with their two new teammates and introduced each other again.

In the following days, the team was training in a quiet rural sports club on the outskirts of Moscow, while attacking in the transfer market.

At the left-back, Dunn fell in love with Grosso, the main defender of the Italian national team had been unsatisfactory at Inter Milan, and his injury made him lose his main position. If there is a buyer at this time, Inter Milan is happy to change hands.

At present, Lyon has expressed its purchase intention to Inter Milan, but Dunn does not know how much the specific bid will be.

Nottingham Forest’s offer to Inter Milan was 5.5 million pounds, or about 7 million euros. Inter Milan agreed to this offer, Dunn knew that Inter Milan also agreed to Lyon's offer.

The next thing is simple, it depends on the conditions of Nottingham Forest or Lyon that are more attractive. Lyon’s advantage lies in the salary, while Nottingham Forest’s advantage lies in the honor they have just won and the bright prospects for more championships in the future. Of course, the salary will not be much lower.

The final treatment Lyon gave to Grosso was an annual salary of 2 million euros. The forest team drove 1.9 million euros, which is only one hundred thousand. But joining the European Championship and joining a French champion, playing in the Premier League and playing in the French League... these are completely two concepts.

Grosso also hesitated whether Italian players could succeed in the English League. Dunn took Albertini as an example to dispel his hesitation.

In the end, Grosso signed the contract of Nottingham Forest because he felt that it was possible to get a higher honor in this team, and although Lyon dominated the French Ligue 1, his performance in the European arena is weak. Powerless. He rejected Lyon and chose Nottingham Forest. Dunn hopes that the arrival of Grosso, a member of the world championship team, will increase the thickness of the Forest team's defense on the left side. This is good news for the Forest team who will fight on multiple lines next season.

Grosso, who signed the contract, came directly to Moscow, and after receiving a comprehensive physical examination, he began training for the new team.

※※※

The signings of the Forest team have not yet ended. At the right-back position, Dunn has always wanted to add another person. Although Sun Jihai can also play the right back, but because he has been playing with Dunn for a long time, he is at the right back. In terms of position, his performance is no longer as good as before, not very safe.

Out of this idea, Dunn is now competing with Arsenal Professor Wenger in the transfer market.

Both he and Wenger fell in love with the Ligue 1 Auxerre defender Bacary Sagna (Bacary_Sagna). Due to his outstanding performance in the French Ligue 1, he was selected as the best team of the season, and now there are many teams pursuing this black right back, but it seems that he and Arsenal are closer.

Dunn took advantage of the "new European Champions" trend to intervene in this deal. He very much hopes to get this right back known as "Thuram No. 2" to strengthen his right wing. It is certainly not enough to rely on Zimbunda alone, not to mention the slow progress of Zimbunda over the past two years, which makes Dunn very worried.

Arsenal offered 6 million pounds and Nottingham Forest offered 7.5 million pounds. Both sides are ambitions.

In the end, the player's personal wishes played a key role.

Sarnia thanked the Forest team for their great love to him and thanked Dunn for complimenting him, but...this "but" suddenly cooled Dunn's heart.

However, Sarnia himself prefers to play under Wenger, because they are both French. He has always liked the head coach Wenger from France very much. It is his dream to play under him...

At this point, the matter is over. The Forest team lost to Arsenal in the "Sarnia" only because their head coach looked less attractive than Wenger.

Dunn is a very competitive person, and this reality makes him very depressed. It seems that I am not popular everywhere...

Then Arsenal announced that Sarnia officially joined the Gunners, and the Forest team had to find another right back.

Fortunately, Dun En and Tang have several candidates for each position. If this fails, they will be replaced.

He originally had several candidates in his hand, and among them, Sarnia was the most suitable, the price was not high, the ability was outstanding, and the reputation was not great. Now that Sarnia's plan has collapsed, he has to turn his attention to several other people.

After repeated screening, only two people on the list are operable.

The right back of the Schalke 04 team, the Brazilian Rafinha (Rafinha), and the right back of the Croatia international and Shakhtar Donetsk, Darijo Srna (Darijo_Srna). Both of these people are famous in the FM series. Dunn has also used them when playing games. They are really very useful.

In the game, you can buy it by all means to work for yourself, but in reality it is not that easy.

Rafinha is the absolute main force in Schalke 04. Due to the status of Schalke and the Bundesliga, his price is high. This is the only reason Dunn gave up Rafinha at the beginning.

As for Serna, price is not a problem. According to the report sent by the scout who was responsible for tracking him, and Dunn’s own observations, Selna’s performance was not particularly stable. Sometimes during the game he became emotionally impatient due to some of his mistakes, and his level was greatly reduced. . This makes Dunn not very relieved.

Now that Sarnia is rejected, only these two people are the most likely.

Dunn believes that as long as he makes a call, Shakhtar Donetsk is absolutely impossible to compete with the European champions, and Serna will undoubtedly come. But he still wanted to work **** Rafinha first.

The Forest team tried to contact Schalke 04, and the answer was "not for sale".

Schalke 04 thought that this would make the Forest team interesting, but the cheeky Dunn didn't know how to write "Zhiqu". A day later, Schalke 04 received an official offer of 5 million pounds from Nottingham Forest, which was equivalent to 7.5 million euros based on the exchange rate at the time.

In order to strengthen the strength of the right road, Dunn planned to spend more money this time.

Fortunately, he caught a Thai guy and sold Yang to bring the team a transfer fund of 25 million pounds. Otherwise, the forest team, which is planning to build a new stadium, is financially stretched and it is impossible to bring Dunn any money. support.

The sale of Yang earned 25 million pounds, the sale of Anelka 12 million, and the sale of Arteta earned 10 million. Take a look at the money Dunn spent when he introduced these players. With 47 million pounds on hand, deducting the 11 million spent on the purchase of Arshavin and the 5.5 million spent on the purchase of Grosso, there is 30.5 million left, even if the club’s finances are not Provide any support, Dunn is also confident to build a strong fighting team.

Faced with an offer of 5 million pounds, Schalke 04 remained unmoved, and their answer was still "not for sale".

In the afternoon, the Forest team made the second offer-seven million pounds.

This number may be unremarkable in terms of British pounds, but it is not low when converted into euros-about 10.5 million.

Schalke 04's answer is still cold "not for sale", Dunn does not plan to increase the price. You know, in the summer of 2005, when Schalke 04 brought Rafinha from Corinthians, Brazil to Veltins Arena, it only cost 4.5 million Euros. Now in just two years, they can switch hands to six million euros. Dunn doesn't know what the Germans are not satisfied with. Anyway, there is Serna as a substitute, the big deal is that he will go to Ukraine's Shakhtar Donetsk team to talk, I believe that it will not cost much.

Just when he decided to give up, a call came to his cell phone. Speaking of which, the person who called is considered an "old friend"-the famous Portuguese agent Mendes who made great efforts when introducing Pepe.

Dunn was very surprised why Mendes looked for him at this time, they hadn't contacted him for a while. As a result, what Mendes said surprised Dun En-he turned out to be Rafinha's agent!

"He just changed his agent. The new agent is me. Haha, didn't you expect it? Tony?"

Dunn did not expect it, but then figured it out. Rafinha is the main force of Brazil's U20. After playing for two seasons in the Bundesliga, he has gradually become famous. How could a person like Emendes have a hound-like sense of smell not knowing his future? So it is normal to find ways to make promising players a "commodity" under his own. Mendes, the European football broker predator, is not a nickname.

"I know you are having a headache for the right back, so I will help you solve the problem. Rafinha is happy to go to a team that won the European Champions Cup. To be honest, he told me more than once-Bundesliga It's just a springboard for him. He hopes to one day play in more advanced leagues and teams. Schalke has set goals for the league championship and the Champions League in 2004, but they have not achieved it in a year. They simply Can’t compare with your team, Tony. I’m very optimistic about you and your Forest team, so I promised to sell Pepe to you cheaply. I am very happy to see his performance in your team." Of course he Happy. Pepe is still his player. The better Pepe performs and the more honors he gets, his value will naturally rise with the tide. His small investment in the past will receive very, very generous returns. But now he speaks in a high-sounding manner, and a flattering can make the listener feel very comfortable. "Now I plan to help you again."

These words rekindled Dunn's desire to pursue Rafinha.

"But... this time things are different from Pepe. It's a bit tricky. I think you may need to raise some more quotations to impress Schalke 04, and then I will put some pressure on them and strive for a one that is satisfied by both parties. Price. What do you think, Tony?"

Dunn knew Mendes' thoughts in his heart. A transfer agent can draw 10%, and if this transfer fails, then Mendes’ money will be in vain. Why should he help Dun En? To put it bluntly, it is better to make money for himself. Raise prices? Just to make that ten percent more.

Dunn wanted to refuse, but when he thought of Rafinha's ability, he felt as if something was scratching in his heart, and he couldn't bear to let it go. It is the idea of ​​all coaches to let good players work for themselves. Rafinha is indeed capable, and he is still young, because young he has a broader space for development and unlimited potential.

Zimbanda put it bluntly, and Rafinha is not a right back of the same grade, if Rafinha can come, naturally it is best...

Dunn reorganized the transfer list in his mind, and calculated how much transfer fee is left, and then he asked: "How much more can I increase?"

Mendes on the other end of the phone smiled with a wine glass: "Ten million, pounds, ten million is enough. Trust me, friend, my face is somewhat influential."

The total price of 10 million pounds is not outrageous, but 15 million euros. The forest team can afford the money.

Dunn considered it for a while and agreed to Mendes' suggestion. If successful, this is actually not a win-win situation, it is a win-win for three or even four-Forest, Schalke 04, Mendes and Rafinha.

Players want to go to a team that can bring more honor and money to themselves. The club puts the overall interests of the players before the personal interests of the players, and the agents will always pursue interests.

The key word-interest.

※※※

After Dunn and Allen discussed, the Forest team once again quoted 10 million pounds, equivalent to about 15 million euros.

Real Madrid bought Sergio Ramos from Sevilla for 27 million euros, which is the world's first worth at the right-back position. Now this offer cannot be considered low for a young man who is only 21 years old.

For this offer, England’s "Sun" has a very vivid analogy:

"... We all know that Dunn lost to Wenger in the fight against Bakale Sanya. It is said that he was very disappointed with this result, because Sanya refused him because he was not well paid. It’s not that the team lacks honor and fame, but that he prefers Wenger to the coach instead of him. So Coach Dunn is very angry, then how to vent after being angry? As we all know, the best way to vent after a woman is angry is to go to the street Shopping, crazy card swiping. Our dear Mr. Dunn has inherited this fine tradition very well. He slaughtered in the transfer market and waved the pound in his hand as if it were a sharp sword and wanted to The Schalke dragon who hijacked Princess Rafinha was defeated."

To be honest, this metaphor is quite vivid, but Dunn doesn't like it, because he feels like a vixen who loses his temper.

He feels even more disgusting with The Sun.

In fact, when Dunn was playing games before, he used to be someone else's triumph because of Rafinha. At that time, he used the highly prestigious Real Madrid, in order to buy Rafinha, once spent 40,000 euros!

Of course, there is a part of Dun En's anger: he has offered five offers, and Schalke 04 directly rejected them, and he didn't want to talk about it. So he was furious for a while, and directly reported 40 million. This time Schalke finally nodded and took it smoothly.

The forest team's finances will not allow for a price of 40 million for one player, and Dunn is not playing a game, he can throw money like a toilet paper.

15 million euros Dunn thinks it is a very fair price, which will not allow Schalke 04 to shut up and not let go, and it is still within the scope of the Forest team.

Schalke 04 had been in a financial crisis a season ago. If Rafinha would definitely not need so much money at that time, there is also the reason why Rafinha has only played in the league for a year and is too young. Now it’s different. Gazprom has injected huge sums of money into Schalke 04. At least they don’t have to rely on fire sales to pay off debts.

15 million euros to buy a young right back, Dunn thinks this is an offer that allows both parties to sit down and talk. In addition, with Mendes’ promise, I believe that Schalke 04 will not be coldly "not for sale" when he returns.

Sure enough, the Forest Club received a reply from Schalke 04, hoping to discuss this offer in detail.

There is absolutely no real "not for sale" in this world. People who say "not for sale" are just because the price they offer is not high enough. Just like George Wood, if a club really offered 200 million pounds to buy him, even if Dunn quit, Evan would rather fire the stubborn head coach and agree to the deal-let alone the 200 million joke. , Even if the asking price is 90 million euros, it might be sold.

For young right-back Rafinha, Schalke thinks the price is not bad, they can sell Rafinha, and then buy other outstanding young people. Even if you don't buy young people, you can buy a few more players who are strong enough to play in their years, you can greatly enhance the strength of the team. Schalke's goal for the new season of 04 is to hit the league championship, at this time every penny is important.

Schalke 04 no longer held the boring idea of ​​"not for sale", and sat at the negotiating table with the Forest Club, and conducted "intensified but friendly" negotiations on the value of Rafinha.

Allen was in charge of the negotiations. When he left, Dunn told him: Within the total price of 20 million euros, he would try his best to bring the Brazilians.

He knew that with Mendes' help, things would go smoother, but he couldn't put hope and chips in the hands of others, it would be too dangerous. Now that I am determined to buy Rafinha, I don't mind paying a little more. So after thinking about it, Dunn told Allen that he could accept a bid of up to 20 million euros, and no matter how high it is. He doesn't want to be someone's trick.

Alan led the way, but Dunn secretly ran to Germany and met Rafinha secretly under the arrangement of Mendes. During the talks, the two sides increased their understanding and concluded an agreement on mutual advancement and mutual benefit. Dunn hopes that Rafinha will continue to put pressure on the Schalke 04 club to force them to accept the offer from the Forest team. Dunn worries that other clubs will come and **** people from him.

On this point, Mendes patted his chest to ensure that Rafinha belonged only to Nottingham Forest, and if they were not convinced, they could still initial an agreement. At the same time, Rafinha also expressed his admiration for Dunn, the head coach, and his yearning for Nottingham Forest. This made Dunn, who had just lost in the "Sarnia Battle", been greatly satisfied, and promised that Rafinha would come to the team and be able to secure the position of the main right back-he was not for Zim. Bonda bought a substitute, and it was a handy gift.

Both the host and the guest were happy, and Dunn flew back to Moscow later that day and continued to lead the team for training. It was only in the regular press conference that he expressed his appreciation for Rafinha, which was regarded as a response to the media's news about the transfer.

On the other hand, Rafinha said in a public interview that he really wanted to play in England, but his sincere attitude hardly described joining Nottingham Forest as his biggest dream since childhood...

Allen won the best interest for the Forest team at the negotiating table-18 million euros, paid in installments, with a down payment of 10 million, and the remaining 8 million will be monthly within 12 months. Paid off.

Schalke 04 nodded in agreement, Mendes and Allen flew to Moscow together, and the two started a new round of negotiations on the treatment of Rafinha on the plane. Both of them are businessmen, and both are simple enough. Coupled with the relationship between Dunn and Mend, as well as Mendes's contribution to the deal, the negotiation progressed smoothly.

When the plane landed at the Moscow airport, all the details of the Rafinha contract were negotiated. All Rafinha had to do was deal with the trivial matters such as the German real estate, and then flew directly to Moscow for a medical examination. Signing the contract is so simple. Since Rafinha is the main member of the Brazilian U20 national team, labor certification is not a problem.

Three days later, on July 11, the Nottingham Forest and Schalke 04 club officials issued an announcement at the same time, saying that Brazilian defender Rafinha officially transferred from Schalke 04 to Nottingham Forest. The transfer fee was as high as 18 million Euros, about Twelve million pounds.

This is the new season, the forest team cost the highest one-match transfer transaction, the forest team continues to consolidate their opponent's frightening devil wings.

Rafinha soon went to Moscow to report. Dunn shook hands with Rafinha on the side of the training court and was filmed by the media. He was in a good mood when he lost in Sarnia and earned it in Rafinha.
