Coach, I want to play football!

Sandoko nodded: "Okay, I understand. I will definitely bring you a center before the new season, but I can't guarantee whether it will be Ye Qi. After all, you know how popular he is recently."

"Also, the central defender is not a big problem? Since you already have your favorite center, let's talk about the central defender?"

Mourinho doesn't care whether Santoku is trying to make a big deal or not, but he has made his request anyway.

He thought for a moment and said: "What about Bailly? Eric Bailly, the Ivorian central defender of Villarreal in La Liga."

San Dezi thought for a while and seemed to have some impression.

Of course, the signings of mature clubs are not done on a whim. The scouts will form a report for each position.When the team wants to recruit a certain position, the chief scout will compile reports on all the players under his staff that fit this position and give them to the coaching staff and transfer director.

For example, Manchester United's center list includes Ye Qi, and the scouts commented that they hope the club can introduce him.

And Santoku seems to have seen this player named Bailly on the candidate list of central defenders.

"Can I get a labor certificate?" This was his first reaction. After all, the opponent was an Ivorian player.

Mourinho thought for a while and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, he is the main central defender of Ivory Coast. He has been recruited by the national team for two or three years. He is also the main central defender of Villarreal."

San Dezi nodded, "No problem, I'll let someone find a way to get in touch first..."

Mourinho: "His agent seems to be Ye Qi's girlfriend. I have a good personal relationship with Ye. We can call to find out. If there is no problem, we can directly initiate an offer."

Santoku glanced at Mourinho meaningfully. Almost everyone knew about the personal relationship between the other party and Ye Qi. Not only did the two often interact in the media and social platforms, but Mourinho also participated in Ye Qi's event. Seven hearings.

He said to himself that it was because of this that I didn't agree to introduce Ye Qi so simply.It doesn't matter if it's a substitute, rotation, etc.

But such an important core player must be given more thought. Now that Rooney is the captain, he is in a rather awkward position with the club.

The introduction of a core center will directly affect Rooney. The captain's contract only has one year left, and the club wants to renew his contract for another year.

But the introduction of a young and dominant forward like Ye Qi at this time will definitely threaten Rooney. It will be difficult to negotiate a contract extension by then. Even if it is negotiated, what about the salary?

And once a conflict breaks out between Rooney and Ye Qi, as the head coach, you will definitely support Ye Qi because you have a good personal relationship with Ye Qi, but this is not in the interests of Manchester United.

Of course, I admit that I am also very envious of the Chinese market behind Ye Qi.But if you are a player like Dong, it doesn't matter, just make a show.

It doesn't matter if it's the main force or rotation like Shinji Kagawa, but Ye Qi will definitely be the core with his influence.

By then there will be nothing but chicken feathers everywhere......

And to be honest, Ye Qi's transfer fee will definitely not be cheap.He has locked in a player for most of this summer's transfer fee, but has not yet reached an agreement with the other party's agent.

Under such circumstances, one cannot spend two huge sums of money on signings in one summer.Otherwise, the transfer fee for a single season will be nearly [-] million pounds, and he will be the first to be killed by the Glazer family.

So these are San Dezi's petty thoughts and worries, and they are also the reasons why he is unwilling to compete with Ye Qi with all his strength.

Of course, if Ye Qi is not expensive, it would not be a big problem if it only costs 3000 million pounds.But Sandoko doesn’t think Leicester City is that stupid, and the duty-free shop opened by his Thai boss is not a charity...

Sandoko nodded, "Okay, I think it's okay. You can ask for help first. If it's not a big problem with the players, I'll arrange for someone to send an email directly and then leave for Spain."

Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief, and the other party finally gave him a positive answer.

If we can get a main central defender, a powerful midfielder, and a dominant center this season, it will be great...

I dare not say that I will compete for the championship, but at least qualifying for the Champions League is not a big problem.After a season of running-in, if you add some other positions next season, you will basically have the strength to compete for the championship.

This is the plan formulated by Mourinho and his coaching staff. Because it is the first full season of coaching Manchester United, the focus is still on team building.

Wait until the second or third season to charge towards the championship!

On the other side, in an office in Liverpool, England.

The newly appointed technical director Xiao Ai breathed a sigh of relief, because he finally solved the first big trouble he faced when he took office this summer.

His performance last season was hugely disappointing, and coach Klopp made it clear that Benteke, a traditional virtue, was not in his future plans. He finally dealt with him... Well, he found it. Next home.

Benteke's next club is Crystal Palace, which is also a Premier League club. He has just reached an agreement with Crystal Palace, and the other party is willing to purchase the Belgian center for 500 million pounds.

Last season, Liverpool paid Benteke a liquidated damages totaling 3000 to [-] million pounds.

A loss of £500 million after one season...

Of course, it would be great if someone took over at this time.As for the transfer fee of 700 million pounds, Edwards is very satisfied.

Only after it was confirmed that Benteke was sold, would he have the opportunity to buy Ye Qi.

Because in this way, part of the transfer funds are first withdrawn, and then part of the salary quota is freed up, which also frees up positions.

Otherwise, there are centers such as Benteke, Ye Qi, Sturridge, Ings and Origi...not only the transfer fee and salary are high, but they are also a talent for the team. waste.

After all, Klopp has said that his mainstream tactic is to play a single center. With such a configuration, let alone the team having no European competition to play in the new season, even if there is a Champions League player, there will be a surplus of players.

Benteke is a talent and he should not waste his youth on Liverpool's bench, so Crystal Palace is a good place for the opponent.

I looked at the time and saw that it was already late at night.I won’t call Benteke and his agent at this time. Let’s talk more about it on the phone when we know they have a break at noon.

After all, Edwards knew that Benteke was training with the national team.

He is also confident to convince Benteke to go to Crystal Palace, after all, the World Cup will be in two years.Benteke must maintain his competitive state and competitiveness.

You know, his competitors for the national team are other than Little Monster Lukaku.There are also Batshuayi and Origi. Two years later, Batshuayi will be 24 years old and Origi will be 23 years old, which is the time of youth.

If Benteke does not maintain good condition, it is not impossible that he may be replaced by these two juniors of the national team.

Benteke himself will be 27 years old by then. If he misses the 2018 World Cup, he will miss the golden period of his career.By the next World Cup, the opponent will be 31 years old.
