Chapter 100 Difficulty moving forward!

Barcelona encountered problems when they were seeking Neymar, and other wealthy families quickly intervened.

Neymar is worth a lot of money has always been a topic of discussion among European media. Even for the "big-handed" giant teams, 30,000 euros is a huge expenditure. No giant will directly pay for a "Brazil Rising Star". Various contacts, temptations and discussions will follow.

Atletico Madrid is one of them.

Wan Sheng is very interested in Neymar, but the strategy adopted in the transfer is like other top teams, which is "showing a large net". Since last summer, the geniuses of each team have been linked to Atletico Madrid.

The advantage of this ‘strategy’ is that other teams don’t know who the specific goal of Atletico Madrid is.

For example, it has been rumored that Kopelle Ferreira will leave Real Madrid in the summer and join the city's rival Atletico Madrid. For this reason, Real Madrid fans even began to boycott Ferreira.

Some media have noticed Rodriguez, who performed very well this season.

"Maca" reported that "people familiar with the matter revealed that Atletico Madrid has privately contacted Rodriguez, and they seem to be negotiating a transfer..."

In addition, Suarez, who just transferred to join last year, has also become Atletico Madrid's target.

The Guardian disclosed that "Last year, Wansheng planned to introduce Suarez, but the latter refused. Now Suarez plays well in Liverpool, but Liverpool cannot win the English championship. At this time, Suarez easily thinks of Atletico Madrid in La Liga..."

In this series of reports, the name of Atletico Madrid and Neymar are nothing.

This is exactly what Wansheng wants.

In world football, Wan Sheng is already very famous, especially his name is related to "eye" and "training players". When others know that he values ​​a certain player, it is not easy to really bring a team, because there will definitely be competitors to block it.

Atletico Madrid casts a large net, so other people naturally cannot speculate on Atletico Madrid's real recruitment target.

Only then can the team play the opportunity.

Wan Sheng attaches great importance to Neymar. His memories from his previous life told him that this is a future world-leading superstar. He is already very famous now, and his value will only get higher and higher in the future.

Being able to introduce Neymar is beneficial to both the lineup and investment.

Neymar is definitely Wan Sheng’s goal. A star like this, who is “solid to make money without losing money” and “excellent talent and strength”, Wan Sheng feels that it’s okay to buy it out of his own pocket.

Such a genius, 30,000 euros is not much!

Wansheng didn't put all his energy into the transfer.

Most of the club's transfer work is done by others. Wan Sheng only cares about the "possible" transfers of several players, and then he devotes himself to the league.

In the 26th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid's entire team rushed to Alliggendi and challenged the home team Hurgus at the Rick Perez Stadium.

Hurgus is already a 'pure' relegation team.

Currently, Hurgus ranks second to last in the league. Vigo, the promotional hero who led them to the second division last season and ranked second in the league, was fired in December last year. He also became the second La Liga coach to be fired after Sevilla coach Alvarez.

Afterwards, Hurgus invited Alec, who was idle at home, but the team's performance did not increase.

Now that the 16th round of the league has won at home with Zaragoza, and there is only one draw in other games.

Such a "dismal" result is enough to show Hergus' situation.

Even if they play at home, they don’t have much chance to face Atletico Madrid. Even Alliggidi’s fans are not loud. Obviously, they think that Helgus cannot win. Even after Morris scored the first goal, some local Aliggidi fans shouted Morris’ name, as if they were 'chasing stars'.

This situation is really surprising.

In fact, the performance of the Hurgus fans is not surprising. They were originally a Class B team. Even after Christmas, the club chairman also said, "It has been 13 years since we returned to La Liga. It should be worth celebrating. We will strive to relegate. But now, the team is not ready yet."

So, Hurgus is actually ready to be demoted.

They have been in the low league for 13 years, and their upgrades last season were a bit sudden. For a club whose entire team is worth less than 10,000 euros, it is too difficult to stay in the La Liga.

Hurgus is completely like a "one season tour of La Liga".

They will leave at the end of the season, and they have nothing to nostalgic for, because everyone knows that at least the La Liga aren't suitable for them at the moment.

In the end, Atletico Madrid won 4-0 away.

After the game, Wan Sheng and Alec shook hands with smiles. The two of them could not tell that they were opponents at all. Like a good friend they had just met, Alec also invited Wan Sheng to the press conference together and said to the media, "We are prepared to lose. Atletico Madrid is too powerful, but the game is not in vain. We learned a lot from them."

Wan Sheng also praised Hurgus in a friendly manner, "They played very hard. I thought they would win easily, but in fact, it was not easy for us to win."

This sentence made the media off the stage roll their eyes.

It’s not easy to score three goals in the first half?!!

In the second half, some Atletico Madrid players stopped playing seriously. They were just showing off their feet. Even so, Hurgus had no choice.

This is the strength gap!

Wan Sheng, no matter what the media thinks, Hurgus is not a competitor of Atletico Madrid at all. The two teams have no competition conflicts, so they are very friendly to each other. He doesn't need to offend people, that's meaningless.

After the game with Hurgus, the focus of media concerns came to the King's Cup again.

Spanish football held a meeting on the 5th to determine the venue and specific date of the Copa del Rey final. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both sent representatives to explain the ideas of their respective teams. In the end, both sides chose the 'neutral stadium'.

Real Madrid and Sevilla both rejected the Spanish Football Association's request to use the venue. Finally, after a dispute, the final venue was set at the Mestalia Stadium.

Mestalia Stadium is Valencia's home court. The media have discussed the possibility of the finals being played in this stadium before, but Mestalia can only accommodate 55,000 fans. The number of fans is too small, and even Barcelona and Atletico Madrid cannot tolerate it.

The Spanish Football Association has no choice.

They were determined to show the King's Cup and hoped that the Cup would attract more fans, but they did not have that much right. They chose the Mestalia Stadium and had to pay Valencia a "loan fee". The tickets on that day had to be divided into a part. After the interests were divided, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, who participated in the King's Cup final, had no profit.

Fortunately, there are bonuses in the Cup of Rey.

According to the bonus distribution rules of the Cup of Rey, the teams participating in the finals can receive a prize of 20,000 US dollars respectively, and the winning party can also receive an additional prize of 0,000 US dollars. In addition, in the past tradition, the Spanish royal family will also symbolically award a check of 50,000 US dollars and will routinely summon the teams that win the championship.

The biggest attraction of the King's Cup championship is also the "Europa League (formerly League Cup) qualification", but for Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, European competition qualification is meaningless, so there is no need to talk about this item.

In short, the venue for the final of the King's Cup has been determined and the date has been determined on April 13, after the 31st round of the league ended.

The Spanish media also began to look forward to the finals.

Before that, there is still one month left.

The competitions this month are very intensive, with five league games alone, especially Barcelona, ​​especially the Champions League, and they have three games to be played from March to early April. Barcelona's pressure can be imagined.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid has only 5 rounds to play in the league.

Atletico Madrid is very relaxed. Wan Sheng’s requirement for them is to play the league well. Don’t think about the King’s Cup final first. “We need to keep it steady!”

"Everyone is saying that we have a great hope of winning the league championship and a great hope of winning the Copa del Rey, but the season has not ended yet and the championship has not been confirmed. The road must be taken step by step, and the game must be played one by one!"

"What we have to do is not to think about the championship, but to play every game well. When we can do this, the championship is already in our hands!"

Two days later, Atletico Madrid welcomed Villarreal at home.

"Yellow Submarine" is a traditional La Liga team. They are currently ranked fourth in the league and have 2 more points than Valencia.

This opponent must be taken seriously.

Wansheng sent all the main players and finally defeated Villarreal 2-1 at Calderon Stadium.

Although it sounds pretty bland, the game process is actually very difficult.

Villarreal showed strong offensive ability and did a good job in defense. Atletico Madrid relied on Ozil's free kick and a penalty kick to win.

After the game, Ass said, "Atlanie Madrid's victory was much more difficult than Barcelona, ​​but fortunately they persevered..."

Wan Sheng was also very emotional.

Since the season has been going on, every game has become difficult. The complexity of the competition has made many players feel mentally exhausted.

Each of them needs a break.

But the season is not over yet and the rest time is not yet here.

The team must persist, especially those main players who play more often, need to adjust their mentality to deal with every game seriously.

Wan Sheng suddenly thought of Ms. Dina McGovern, the club's psychiatrist, when coaching Manchester City. (To be continued.)8
