The Ball at Your Feet

"Figocan is coming to Liverpool?"

This statement made Zhao Yaning feel a little weird.

A year ago, the core of Liverpool was still rushing to join the Galacticos. A year later, Figo was willing to come to Liverpool?

"I think he was willing to come." Morientes opened his mouth. "Now, almost everyone with eyes can see that the Galaxy Battleship is over."

Qi Zu said that he was going to retire. Ronaldinho's condition is going from good to bad. Carlos is getting old and going downhill. Although Real Madrid hasn't completely declined, the decadence has already been revealed.

"Figo is a clever man, a very clever man." Morientes recalled, "People said that if the ship is going to sink, the rats will fight to escape. And I think, Figo is the smartest mouse on the Galaxy battleship. Although he is old, his skills are still there, and he has no loyalty to speak of. Presumably, he also wants to leave Real Madrid, and he also wants to take advantage of his usefulness and do something more."

Morientes' statement is actually somewhat unfair. After all, he is a good friend of Raul. Some words are not very fair, and he even favors Raul. Figo wants to leave, but he is actually forced by tactics.

This season, Rusenberg made a fuss about Ronaldo. Beckham took the right wing, while Raul was pushed to the left. Figo has no main position in Real Madrid. He didn't even start in the national derby, so you can know how much he is not taken seriously now. In addition, his contract is only one year, so he naturally has the idea of ​​leaving Real Madrid.

Moreover, more importantly, Figo also understood one thing: Florentino's achievements, the matter of re-elected chairman, should not think about it. He stayed at Real Madrid, and there was no good result. With Real Madrid's habit of internal struggle, the new chairman came to power, and he would be unlucky. He didn't want Zidane to be able to let go or even prepare to retire. He also wanted to play for two more years, work harder, and earn more honor.

Not only did he have this idea, Real Madrid also had the idea of ​​abandoning him. His salary is too high, only one year contract is left, and no position. Real Madrid keeps him is also a burden, so they also hope to sell him. Moreover, they have already found a successor: Brazil's Robinho will become the main signing target for Real Madrid this year. As a new star in Brazil, his performance in the Copa America is extremely eye-catching. Pele called him his successor, and the Brazilian touted him as the future Golden Globe winner. Now, he is the main goal of Real Madrid.

"Figo is willing to cut his salary himself. His current salary is 3.5 million Euros-which is the same level of salary as Joey, 90,000 weekly salary, and the club negotiated with him to reduce his salary to 55,000 pounds a week. , That is, an annual salary of 2.2 million euros. It is still a high salary in our club, but this is already a huge salary cut." Benitez is still a little dissatisfied with this issue. Parry has lowered the price too much. It might let people go.

"But, what about the transfer fee?" Gerrard is more concerned about another issue. "The transfer fee shouldn't be low, right? It's also a football player..."

"We are discussing with Real Madrid about whether the transfer fee might be required."

Is this going to take Real Madrid as the head? Everyone present has the same mind.

"Real Madrid wants to sell him, we want to buy him, and he wants to change the environment-it is precisely because the signings know the attitude of Real Madrid and Figo himself, so this deal has been up to now and wants to introduce None of his three companies are willing to pay for it..." The assistant teacher Jestadan explained.

Real Madrid is playing with fire, no wonder others. In the past season, in order to appease Ronaldo and Carlos, Luxenberg was hired as a coach. In the end, there was no place for Figo in the team, and the Galaxy Battleship had to be ruined. After all, it’s impossible to demolish the east wall and make up the west wall. Four tenths are not something that everyone can do.

And now, the situation Real Madrid is facing is actually quite embarrassing. La Liga teams have the habit of privately contacting players from other teams. No matter who they want to buy, they don’t like to be open. They always like to sneak in contact with players first-Irving is an example, and Real Madrid through his transfer, It did save a lot of money.

But to do this, you have to be ready for the player to beat him down. Now Figo wants to leave and Real Madrid wants to sell him, but Figo has done the same thing: On the one hand, he refused to renew his contract with Real Madrid. On the other hand, he was also in contact with other teams in private, and even let out the wind. Indicates that salary reductions are acceptable.

This also caused Real Madrid to fall into a passive position on the issue of transfer: Inter Milan, Valencia and Liverpool also proposed the introduction of Figo, but the transfer fee-the addition of the three is also zero euros.

Of course, there is no shortage of Middle Eastern teams that have proposed the acquisition of Figo. But the problem is that next year there will be a World Cup game, Figo still thinks about going to the World Cup for a lap, so early to go to the pension, he will not do it himself.

Real Madrid of Valencia will naturally not sell people, no matter how to say it is a league, they are not willing to sell their players to competitors. Among the two teams of Liverpool and Inter Milan, Real Madrid is more inclined to sell people to Inter Milan. The reason is also very simple. Liverpool just won the Champions League anyway, while Inter Milan hasn't had anything for so many years. From Real Madrid's point of view, Liverpool is still a possible opponent in Europe, but Inter Milan is nothing. Inter Milan gets Figo, and it does not have much impact on Real Madrid.

But Figo himself, still prefers Liverpool. Although the style of the Premier League pays more attention to physical confrontation and speed, he is a world footballer after all, with sufficient technical guarantees, and a coach who is willing to arrange tactics specifically for him, which can make up for it. And after all, Liverpool's Champions League competitiveness is indeed higher than that of Inter Milan. Although in the Premier League, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea are the three big mountains on Liverpool's head, the league title seems difficult, but in Serie A, Milan and Juventus are also on the head of Inter Milan. Compared to the Premier League, It's not easy to go anywhere. It's hard to win the league title anywhere. When he thinks about it, naturally there are more Champions Leagues.

"We need someone like him." Benitez is still looking forward to this signing. "Although he is old and slow, his skills are still there and his ability is still very strong. And he has a lot of experience. , Has a lot of unexpected help for the improvement of our lineup strength. Therefore, I think it is a good choice to introduce him."

A group of people didn't say anything, Zhao Yaning said, "Then why don't you bring him in?"

"I don't like him." Garcia, who has not spoken, said, "Coach, I'm sorry, I have something to say: I don't like him. I am Catalan and I don't like Luis Fei. Ge, I feel uncomfortable thinking about playing with him."

Garcia didn't even bother to explain, the Figo thing, everyone who played football had heard of it, from Barcelona to Real Madrid, the name of the Nou Camp pig head is really too loud.

"Don't say that. We paid a penalty of 60 million yuan. You didn't buy the right person yourself. Who is the blame." Morientes said from the side, and there were people standing around Barcelona. When he talked, he remembered his Real Madrid identity.

"I didn't blame you, I blame Figo." Garcia replied.

Morientes shrugged and said nothing.

"He is still useful to us. His skills and awareness are very good, and most importantly, he is very experienced, our players have no championship experience, and with Figo, we can better arrange. "Benitez said, "This is a good decision, I think it is the most appropriate. And let's talk about it first, even if it doesn't work, we can still go to Zenden, he is also a free player, our side road this year Don’t spend too much money."

Zhao Yaning didn't say anything any more. If there was a Figo, his strength would definitely be greatly improved.

Although he is old, although he is no longer a speed player. However, Figo's golf quotient and skills are also top-notch, and his help to the team will definitely not be small.

However, what made Zhao Yaning amused was that looking at Benitez's meaning, it seemed that he didn't want to spend money on the sidewalk. The right back can't afford Ramos and buys Aveiroa, and the winger can't attract Figo to bring in Zenden. This kind of stubborn posture is really frugal.

"Don't we buy Walcott?" Zhao Yaning asked, "Didn't he call for a summer and want to come to Liverpool?"

"I have looked at him. Technically, he is not top-notch. Apart from speed, he has no advantage. Moreover, Southampton is the cradle of English youth training after all, and their asking price is not low at all. It may exceed five million. We can not afford."

"Head, I have a question to ask." Garcia said again, "Why are we saving so much? Don't we even have this little money?"

Benitez was a little stunned, he looked at Gerrard, "You didn't tell them?"

The corners of Gerald's mouth twitched, and he didn't speak. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com

"Tell us what? What are you hiding from us?" Garcia asked.

Gerrard hesitated and took a few steps forward. "Well, I said, I also have a player I want to recommend to everyone. In fact, I have recommended it to the coach and management. They I am also very interested. Now, I need to tell you."

"You can speak quickly." Garcia urged.

Gerrard scratched his head before speaking, "I also want to recommend a player, but he is a striker and may be worth more...but he is very strong."

"Our money is so little, and the forward is not the focus of signings, but you can still talk about it." Morientes has already thought of something.

"The person I recommend is a player from Liverpool." Gerrard said, "He used to be the flag and pride here, but now he is a wanderer who wants to return-I hope to buy Michael Owen."

Everyone looked at him dumbfounded. After a long while, Carragher said, "Stephen, are you crazy?"
