765 Prepare for War!
There were not many major transfers in the summer of 2015, and Liverpool did not complete two signings until early July.
The impact of Mahrez's departure was not great, because the growth of Sane and Mbappe itself requires more opportunities.
When Barcelona seduced Coutinho and Real Madrid liked Casemiro, both of them finally chose to stay in the team, Liverpool did not lose important players this summer.
After examining the lineup, there is no question of strengthening and improving. Signing can only enrich the team's thickness and also make plans for the future.
Situ Yunbing always had some surprises in recruiting players. When he returned to the club for summer preparations in July, the team held a press conference for new players.
He hugged two young players one by one.
They are all players from Ligue 1 Lorient, with Matteo Gondozi on the left, 16 years old.
On the right is Raphael Guerrero, 21 years old.
The former will be a new player in Liverpool's midfielder position, while the latter will be a substitute for the left back.
Flanagan has not yet made a debut at Liverpool, and his growth has also entered a stagnant stage. The rich second generation decided to go out and make a move. In order to facilitate his own choice, Liverpool negotiated with him and completed the early termination. He was at least able to find a main position in the mid- and lower-level teams of the Premier League at will.
Fleet Street only wrote lightly when evaluating Liverpool's two transfers: Situ Yunbing began to enter the long-term planning stage at Liverpool.
Mbappe, Sane, and Gondozi this season, if these players grow smoothly, they will basically complete 60% of the work that Liverpool has stable frameworks in the next ten years!
These two transfers didn’t cost much, £45 million!
The money sold Mahrez was exchanged for two new players.
Liverpool CEO Werner found Situ Yunbing anxiously.
Situ Yunbing just arrived at the office in the morning and was still holding coffee. Warner broke in and said to Situ Yunbing: "Situ, why did I hear the transfer manager say that our transfer door is closed?"
Situ Yunbing took a sip of coffee and said lightly: "Yes, the signing is over."
"But we haven't spent money yet!"
"It's been spent, Gondozi and Guerrero spent £45 million, isn't it much?"
"That's the money we've collected from selling Mahrez. Our budget is 100 million pounds! A penny hasn't moved yet."
Situ Yunbing looked at Warner without saying a word.
Warner felt so angry that he said, "The other teams are strengthening, and I think we should keep up with the pace."
Situ Yunbing sighed and said, "I understand that when the club is in the successful stage, the club has the need for commercial development, but I don't think it is the right way to sign a company from a business perspective."
Werner, who was revealed, smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Well, since you have no signing plan, I won't talk anymore, but I need to remind you that our budget still has 100 million pounds. If you change your mind and think that the team needs to sign and strengthen, then don't have any concerns."
Situ Yunbing nodded with a smile.
In recent years, Situ Yunbing has actually spent a lot of money on signing up for help, but it’s just that selling people to make money and recovering a lot of money. Suarez, Sterling, and Mahrez all have large incomes.
It can be said that the current state is a virtuous cycle of maintaining the healthy development of Liverpool.
The reason why Werner wants to spend money to sign up is actually not outrageous. Real Madrid introduced Beckham and Jamet Rodriguez last summer, etc., all of which have achieved success in commercial development.
If Liverpool wants to open up a country's market, the easiest way is to introduce a target national-level star!
Just like if Liverpool now introduces Son Heung-min, Liverpool will instantly receive sponsorship from a large number of Korean companies and become the most supported Premier League club in South Korea.
But from a competitive perspective, the necessity of such a signing needs to be questioned.
Liverpool executives are very clear that Situ Yunbing has earned them high competitive and commercial returns. If they interfere with his power in order to simply pursue the final copper coins, then they are likely to suffer heavy losses.
You should know that there are many rich clubs in the world who are eyeing Situ Yunbing.
Liverpool will continue to go to the United States to compete in the International Champions League in the summer, and before that, the team enters a calm stage.
Other giant teams in the Premier League are not idle.
Chelsea made a lot of investment last summer, and this summer it was also a repair.
The introduction of Pedro from Barcelona cost 21 million yuan.
The introduction of defender Baba Rahman from Augsburg was also costing 21 million yuan.
Goalkeeper Begovic was introduced from Stoke City, 8 million.
The other small transfers totaled about 20 million, and it is quite eye-catching to loan Falcao because Falcao was not successful at Manchester United.
The more important thing in terms of transfer is that Cech transferred 10 million to Arsenal, Hazard Jr. went to Borussia Mönchen, Romeu went to Southampton, Felipe Luis returned to Atletico Madrid, and Drogba said goodbye to Stamford Bridge again.
Then there is the Chelsea loaned out of the world. Among the Premier League clubs, Chelsea is the club with the most loaned out of the world, including Van Jinke, Salah, Atsu, Ak, Cuadrado, Marin, Piasson, Moses...more than 20 people.
There are many popular stars of hope recognized in European football, but Chelsea has no place to use it and can only be rented out.
Overall, Chelsea didn't spend much money this summer.
Manchester City is the most sensational focus in the transfer market this summer.
£45 million was introduced to Mahrez from Liverpool.
£52 million from the Bundesliga will bring De Bruyne to the Premier League again!
Otamendi for £32 million.
Delf of £8 million, Roberts of £8 million, Usal of £2 million.
There is basically no cash return on transfers.
Manchester City invested more than 100 million pounds in the summer again!
Manchester City's neighbor Manchester United is not inferior, and Van Gaal has signed up for his own team in the summer.
36 million pounds, Martial, which can be activated according to the terms of the contract, can reach up to 58 million pounds!
Schneiderling of £25 million, Deppy of £25 million, Schweinsteiger of £15 million, Damian of £14.4 million!
This looks like it has cost hundreds of millions of pounds.
But in fact, it is not that much, because Manchester United's income from selling people is not small.
Di Maria's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain alone allowed Manchester United to recover 44 million pounds of cash, 12 million pounds transferred to Hernandez of Leverkusen, 6 million pounds sold to Evans of West Brom, 3.5 million pounds sold to Nani of Fenerbahce, 2.5 million pounds went to Rafael of Lyon, and 2.5 million pounds left by Van Persie, Clevili and Januzai. It can be said that Manchester United is also striding from an era to a new era, but no one can determine whether the new era is full of light or darkness.
Compared to Manchester United and Manchester City's big deals, the smart Tottenham Hotspur made several good deals in the summer.
Pochettino's lineup framework has basically taken shape.
Son Heung-min, who was introduced with £22 million, Aldreiweild, £3.5 million, Trippier, £4.3 million, and Vimo, and £10 million.
Tottenham will naturally make less money when transferring. Paulinho, Soldado, Kapoor, Stan Pauli, Clices, Lennon, Cablen Holtby, and the income of selling people is almost the same. Basically, the recruitment investment is required.
The most popular one is Klopp, who has recently entered the Emirates Stadium, and what actions he will do in the transfer market in his first year.
Of course, Arsenal's financial resources naturally cannot set off any storm. People pay more attention to what type of players Klopp will introduce to create a brand new Arsenal!
Before signing, it is first cleansing.
Klopp didn't make much move, but he also cleared out some marginal characters of the team first.
Podolsky, Guardo Rik, Diabi, Jenkinson, Sanogo, Szczesny.
In terms of signings, Klopp introduced Firmino, Milner and Wijnaldum who were free transfers, and including Cech, it cost less than 60 million pounds in total!
The Arsenal board of directors is also shrewd. They support Klopp and expect him to do something, but they can't put all the bets on him. At least they can take a step first to see the results.
Therefore, there are also limited transfer budgets for Klopp.
If Klopp doesn't work, wouldn't his signings be wasted?
Even though Klopp was helpless, he could only watch the food.
When the transfer was in its final stage, Klopp also called Situ Yunbing and asked whether Henderson was willing to sell it. Situ Yunbing said that Liverpool's lineup was very compact, and if there were unwanted players in his team, he would suggest the players to leave. Obviously Henderson was not among them.
Klopp gave up and did not even publicly express his intention to introduce Henderson.
At this point, Situ Yunbing can feel respect.
Arsenal has only one bargaining chip to attract Henderson: the main position!
If Klopp dares to promise Henderson's main position, Henderson might be really tempted.
But Klopp respects Situ Yunbing and does not use the media to seduce.
When Klopp, who resigned in a sad way at Dortmund last season, entered the Emirates Stadium, Fleet Street was hyping up the grudge between him and Situ Yunbing. Situ Yunbing suppressed Dortmund while leading Hamburg. In addition, Situ Yunbing exempted from signing Lewandowski, who was trained by Klopp, last summer.
Fleet Street said Klopp came to the Premier League to seek revenge on Situ Yunbing!
What's the truth?
If Liverpool does not sign Lewandowski, Dortmund will not be able to keep him, and Lewandowski will transfer to Bayern Munich!
Chapter completed!
