Chapter 376 Poaching From Manchester United Chapter 4
Chapter three hundred and seventy-six poaching from Manchester United
Atletico Madrid's next game is on January 14, 2011, at home against Atlético Santander.
This is the seventeenth round of the league!
With Atlético Madrid just five points behind, it may take two more games for Atlético to win the half-time title.
The winter break has also brought a sigh of relief to supporters of Barcelona and Real Madrid.
After all, Atletico Madrid put too much pressure on them this season. If Atletico Madrid continues to maintain the current rhythm of the league, I am afraid that the league championship may really be taken away by Atletico Madrid.
In fact, the winter break undoubtedly interrupted the state of Atlético Madrid, which had been in full swing since the start of the season. After the winter break, whether Atlético Madrid could regain its previous state, it is really uncertain. .
......
However, Gao Bo has not paid attention to the game now. After the King's Cup game, he and his team have an eight-day vacation - after all, before the league starts, the players still need to come back for training.
After coming to Spain, Gao Bo was almost always busy, not to mention other parts of Spain, not even Madrid.
So these days, in the various districts of Madrid, in the Palais de Oriente, in Moncloa, in Plaza Mayor, Rue de la Princesse, Rue Goya, Puerta del Sol...
People can always see a bunch of young oriental couples.
After walking around in Madrid, they are planning to visit other parts of Spain.
But just when Gao Bo was a little reluctant, he received a call from Gilmarin!
......
"what?!!!"
On the other end of the phone, Gao Bo's surprised voice came.
Jill Marlin can be sure that he was as surprised as Gao Bo when he received the news, even more surprised.
"Yes, high!" Jill Marin felt helpless, he picked up a fax and said: "They sent an offer.... And,
The players also seemed to be shaken. "
Gao Bo on the other end of the phone cursed secretly, then turned around and said apologetically to Haruko: "I'm sorry, Haruko. I have to go back to the training base..."
Haruko felt a little lost in her heart, but she didn't show it.
"it does not matter..."
The two hurried back to Madrid.
.....
In the office, Gao Bo met Jill Marin.
Gao Bo received a fax from Jill Marin.
"Fifteen million pounds?!" Gao Bo was a little surprised, "Manchester United is really rich."
Gil Marin spread his hands helplessly: "This is the middle of the season, and they want to take people away during the winter window."
"Tell them, no way!!"
Gao Bo put the fax on the table.
"I'm afraid we really need to talk to them... De Gea's contract has one and a half seasons left and it expires after the next season. The player's agent also talked to me today... .."
Gao Bo supported his forehead, no wonder De Gea has been dragging on not renewing his contract during this time.
"Mendez is looking for you?!"
Jill Marlin nodded.
"The offer of 15 million is relatively high, and... from the current situation, it is the players who want to leave, and Mendes may have just found out."
Gao Bo nodded. He knew that this day, if it was the transfer promoted by Mendes, it was impossible for him not to know in advance.
He called Mendez first, and the answer was... United contacted De Gea first.
It is said that according to the current FIFA regulations, clubs are prohibited from privately contacting players.
But this rule is originally a decoration, because it is difficult for you to capture the evidence of private contact. Maybe it was accidentally encountered by everyone?
The prohibition against private contact with players is simply impossible to enforce.
"Gao, I only found out about this yesterday. Ferguson found David privately a few days ago and promised him to replace Van der Sar as Manchester United's main goalkeeper next season. So things are now like this. It's..." Mendes explained over the phone.
Gao Bo nodded, he didn't blame Mendes.
Many player transfers may be instigated by agents, but De Gea is probably not.
Ferguson's status in European football is there. As the helm of the Red Empire, he personally found a young player and promised the position of the main goalkeeper of a super giant like Manchester United. It would be too difficult for De Gea not to be moved. .
In the end, it's a question of the status of the team.
Manchester United are in their prime now, but what about Atletico Madrid? They have been sinking for more than ten years.
"What are we going to do now?" Gilmarin asked.
If it was before, the decision to buy and sell is in his hands, but now Atletico Madrid's transfer rights are in the hands of Gao Bo.
Gao Bo thought for a while and said, "Reject first! De Gea is not for sale!"
Then Gao Bo paced back and forth in the room and thought about it. Atlético de Madrid might really have to prepare both hands now.
Although Asenjo is now considered to be a talented goalkeeper trained by Atletico Madrid, Gao Bo knows that Asenjo is too far behind De Gea.
"In addition... we also have to introduce a goalkeeper in the winter window, a goalkeeper with sufficient strength."
Gao Bo raised his head and said.
Gil Marin is surprised: "We don't have much transfer budget now, if we want to sell a good goalkeeper..."
"I know, so the goalkeeper doesn't have to spend much money. And... his strength is enough!" Gao Bo said.
Jill-Marin also knows Gao Bo's vision, so he does not doubt the authenticity of what Gao Bo said.
"Kyrol Navas?! Papulisa? This is...Costa Rica?!!"
Jill Marin raised his head in surprise.
Costa Rica?
Gilmarin looked for a while, not knowing where this place was.
I can't blame Gil-Marin's poor geography. It can only be said that Costa Rica, as an inconspicuous small country in Central America, is hardly impressive in itself.
Where did Gao Bo know the player?
Jill Marlin is very puzzled.
"Don't be suspicious, Jill." Gao Bo waved his hand, "He is definitely a goalkeeper we can use."
In fact, it is not necessarily how strong Navas is. After all, the height of this goalkeeper is placed here. The height of 184 cm is considered very short among goalkeepers.
But this is not the Premier League. In La Liga, it is not a big deal that the goalkeeper's air defense is weak.
As the main goalkeeper of Real Madrid for several seasons in the future, Navas is absolutely adapted to La Liga, and after Navas returned to Levante, he also won the best goalkeeper of the La Liga season.
And now the player can be brought to Madrid from Costa Rica for only a few hundred thousand euros.
Jill Marlin nodded.
"What about De Gea?"
"I'm going to talk to him!"
Gao Bo said.
In fact, Gao Bo understands De Gea's psychology of wanting to leave. After all, it is people who go to high places.
Although Gao Bo does not think that Atletico Madrid is low and Manchester United is high - but Gao Bo can't help others think so.
Judging from the past dozen or so seasons, Ferguson's Manchester United is one of the strongest teams in Europe, while Atletico Madrid has not appeared in the Champions League for more than ten years.
