As the America's Cup final begins at the National Stadium in Santiago, the capital of Chile, Pan Yi's trip to watch the game is almost over.

The finalists are the host team Chile and Argentina.

The two teams shook hands within 120 minutes, and Chile won the final penalty shootout with 41, winning the America's Cup for the first time.

The devastated Argentina team, after the 2014 World Cup, once again lost in the final and could only get a second place.

As for the Brazilian team where Pan Yi has the most disciples?

In the last round of the group stage, they only narrowly defeated Venezuela, the weakest team in South America, 2:1, and then entered the quarterfinals and were eliminated by Paraguay.

Good, this way David Luiz and the others can have more time to rest...

This morning, Pan Yi had just woken up from a large hotel of several hundred square meters when he received a phone call.

It was actually Vardy calling?

This guy doesn’t want to come to Chelsea, does he?

That's pretty good. I happened to loan Bamford out, and the team is still short of a striker, right? I should have made up a new household registration book.

But when Pan Yi picked up the phone, it was an older voice: "Hello, coach Pan Yi, this is Ranieri, Claudio Ranieri."

Pan Yi was stunned.

Tinker Ranieri?

Oh, that's right. The Italian coach, who was still coaching the Greek national team last year, has now taken over as the coach of Leicester City.

So he should be with Vardy now.

It’s July, and it’s almost time for many Premier League teams to assemble.

That is to say, Chelsea, who played in the Champions League final, and whose players participated in the Copa America, will push back the training time by a few days.

Ranieri asked him for Vardy’s phone number, what would happen?

"Hello, what's the matter?" Pan Yi asked politely.

After all, Ranieri is a coach who has coached Napoli, Fiorentina, Valencia, Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Parma, Juventus, Roma, Inter Milan...well, there are really too many.

No wonder they are called tinkers! Wherever there is a leaky pot, just mend it, and then carry a good pot away.

But in short, he has coached so many well-known teams, especially Chelsea, and is considered a world-famous coach. Pan Yi always wants to give him some face.

What's more, he is still a 63-year-old comrade, so he should be polite.

As for Vardy, this kid gave the phone to someone without even saying hello... I'll settle the score with him next time!

"That's right." Ranieri was also very polite, "Ramirez from your team doesn't play a lot of playing time in your team. Have you considered selling him to me?"

Oh, it turns out we were discussing transfer matters. Pan Yi understood.

Then, he slapped his head.

Yes, he almost forgot.

The Leicester City that Ranieri returns to now is not the same Leicester City that ended up ranking 14th and avoiding relegation last season!

In Pan Yi's previous life, this Leicester City team had to overpower bg6 in the new season, perform a blue arc miracle and finally win the Premier League championship!

And this summer, after Ranieri took over, Leicester City has also been making constant moves.

They spent 7.2 million pounds to buy Japanese international Shinji Okazaki from Mainz, 3 million pounds to buy tall central defender Robert Huth from Stoke City, and the same 3 million pounds to buy Inler from Naples;

Coupled with Vardy bought last season, as well as Mahrez, Wes Morgan, Drinkwater, Andy King, Schmeichel Jr. and others, this championship framework is almost complete.
p>

And in the current team, there is only one key player missing——

N'Golo Kante!

Kante's important role in the Leicester City team goes without saying, just one fact.

That is, after helping Leicester City win the championship, Chelsea bought Kante to Stamford Bridge, while Leicester City's other main players and head coach basically retained the original team.

Then in the next season, Kante once again helped Chelsea win the championship, and Leicester City returned to the relegation ranks...

In his previous life, Ranieri only spent 5.6 million pounds to bring Kante to Fox City from French Ligue 1 team Caen;

But if Ranieri wants to buy Kante now, it is unjustifiable if the price does not increase more than ten times.

What's more, everyone around the world knows that Kanter is Pan Yi's favorite general. Even if he offers 100 million pounds, he might not even dump you.

Perhaps it is because of this consideration that although Ranieri may still appreciate Kanter, he did not consider buying him at all, but chose a lower alternative: Ramirez.

He mainly served as Kante's substitute at Chelsea last season, and of course the price will be cheaper.

Ramirez is indeed similar to Kanter in some technical characteristics. He can both run and fight, and even outperforms him in terms of offensive ability.

It seems that no matter which timeline, Ranieri's requirements for the defensive midfielder are similar.

There are actually players similar to Kanter and Ramirez, so why did you still come to Pan Yi?

Obviously, Ranieri started based on the principle of "the players Pan Yi uses are easy to use"!

As for Pan Yi, he actually feels a little "guilty" towards Ranieri or Leicester City.

After all, in this life, with his Chelsea team and Kante on his side, it is probably impossible for Leicester City to "replicate" the miracle of winning the championship.

This is likely to be a miracle that is unlikely to happen in the next ten years or even decades.

This also makes Pan Yi a little curious. If Kanter is really sent back to Leicester City, can Ranieri really cast the same magic?

But Pan Yi immediately denied himself.

Crazy, there is no reason to watch others win while you are left in the dust. Isn’t this time-traveling in vain!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ranieri." Pan Yi said, "Ramirez has decided to go to the Dragon Country to play football."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Ah?" The person on the phone paused in obvious surprise, and then there was silence.

Pan Yi is not trying to trick Ranieri.

Just a few days ago, Jiangsu Suning officially sent a fax to Chelsea Club, asking for Ramirez, with an offer of 40 million euros.

And just like Shanghai SIPG offered Oscar a sky-high contract, Jiangsu Suning also gave Ramirez an offer he couldn't refuse.

Therefore, this is a good deal for both the club and Ramirez personally, and the deal is basically confirmed.

"Then... what about Mikel?" Ranieri's voice finally sounded again.

If he hadn't said anything, Pan Yi would have thought that the old man had just lost his temper.

But think about it, in the past we only had to compete with the five major league teams, or even within the Premier League, but now there is another Dragon Kingdom...

Moreover, these Dragon Country clubs are all very wealthy, and they do not hesitate to waive transfer fees and big contracts.

Although a prominent person can earn a lot of money, he is still attractive to players! Therefore, it is impossible for a club like Leicester City to rob him.

The sixth largest league in the world is no joke!

Now it seems that Ranieri is going to settle for the next best thing and pursue Mikel instead.

Mikel was still behind Ramirez in the starting order last season, even on par with Loftus-Cheek, but he is indeed a dark and tough defensive midfielder, which meets Ranieri's requirements.<

/p>

"This..." Pan Yi hesitated.

Originally, after letting Ramirez go, Chelsea's defensive midfielder position only consisted of Kante, Matic, Loftus-Cheek and Mikel.

In addition, the B seat can be pulled behind to play midfielder, and Ake and David Luiz can also step up and play as a defensive midfielder. Although there is one less person, it is not a big problem.

But if there is one less Mikel...

That would be a bit stretched, and Pan Yi would have to buy new players.

We originally needed to buy a forward, and now we have to buy a midfielder. It seems that it is still difficult to have free time during this transfer period.

"How about it? I can offer...20 million pounds!" Although Ranieri's expression could not be seen, it was obvious that the old man gritted his teeth.

20 million pounds can be Leicester City’s top transfer bid this season.

"I'll think about it." Pan Yi did not agree immediately.

Mikel is 28 years old this year. He may decline in two years, and he is not the main player of the team. It stands to reason that 20 million pounds is already a very good deal.

Manchester United only spent 20 million euros to buy Bastian Schweinsteiger from Bayern, which is equivalent to almost 15 million pounds...

But it’s still the same problem. Chelsea’s own midfielder is not rich now.

Seeing that Pan Yi didn't give any guarantee, Ranieri was obviously a little anxious: "If you have any conditions, you can raise them."

It seems that Ranieri should have looked for other options, but they were not as good as here.

Or maybe he has identified these Chelsea midfielders...

"Okay." Pan Yi said suddenly.
