Chapter 154 Lease Buyout
Atletico Madrid wants to get Thiago Silva, the one person that cannot be avoided is Milan's current coach Massimiliano Allegri.
In his time as a player, Allegri was not outstanding. He played for low-level league teams for a long time, such as Livorno from his hometown. Later, he joined Pescara in 1991. In Pescara, Allegri became a well-known midfielder. As a midfielder, he actually scored 12 goals in one season and was impressive.
Allegri also became teammates with Stefano Bogonovo and played for Pescara.
On September 13, 1992, Pescara scored a goal in the match between Milan, which ended 5-4, and Van Basten scored a hat-trick in that match.
Allegri later transferred to Cagliari, Perugia and Naples. After a series of mixed games in the first and second divisions, he returned to Pescara, who made him famous, and then played for Pistoise and Agrianis. In the summer of 2003, he ended his career, which was the sixth time when Milan held up the Champions League trophy in Manchester.
In 2oo4 years, Allegri began his coaching career. He started with retired Agrianis, and then transferred to Grosseto due to his good results. Two years later, he joined Udinese's assistant coach Galeone and became a member of the coaching staff.
In 2O8, Allegri began to coach Cagliari, which helped the team win the ninth place in the league. In April 2O1o, Cagliari, which was ranked in the middle of the league, accidentally removed his position as head coach. In June of the same year, Allegri's coaching career ushered in a major change. A Milan officially announced that he joined the team to replace Brazilian coach Leonardo.
Judging from Allegri's coaching career, he is actually just a "novice" in the top coaching circle and has not achieved any outstanding results. However, Milan Club manager Galliani gave him trust, and Allegri went against the crowd and gained more support with his actual record.
With Benitez's coaching Inter Milan without success, A Milan jumped to the standings in one fell swoop, breaking the situation where the Nerazzurri dominated Serie A. Allegri also became the fourth coach to lead the team in a full season after Sachi, Capello and Zacheroni. After Berusconi took over Milan, he won the Serie A championship.
With achievements, there is trust and power.
When he first entered A Milan, Allegri could only gain a foothold in the team with the trust of his manager Galliani, but now he can interfere in the club's transfer. If the club has any transfer actions, Galliani will consult his opinion.
So when he heard Atletico Madrid begging Thiago Silva, Allegri strongly opposed it, "Thiago is the most important defender player of the team. Without him, the team's defense will have big problems! He is irreplaceable!"
Galliani frowned.
Galliani is not a football layman, but he is even a businessman. Even though the team's boss Berlusconi is a wealthy Italian, Milan is a club that wants to make money. They are not like many European teams, who are constantly losing money, so he needs to consider the team's profitability.
Is Thiago Silva indispensable?
In Gagliani's opinion, this Brazilian player could not play as the main player a year ago. Isn't Milan's defense line as stable?
Thiago Silva has performed well now, but he is not indispensable. What's more, Atletico Madrid's quotation of 30,000 euros is very attractive... Maybe you should consider it?
"Massimi, I know the team also needs to strengthen its strength, but our defense seems to be short of people. What's more important is the midfield. If we can buy a capable midfielder, Silva can accept it if he leaves?"
Galliani asked tentatively.
Allegri considered it and it was a little loose. As Galliani said, the team lacked the most at present the excellent midfielder. Kaka left the year before yesterday, and Pirlo left again this year. The only midfielder the team relies on is Sedorf. Sedorf alone will definitely not work. In terms of organizational offense, he and Pirlo are too different. The team must introduce an excellent midfielder.
"Is anyone a choice?"
Galliani smiled, "Maybe Atletico can provide us with it."
"Atletic?" Allegri's eyes lit up.
With the number of teams in Europe, Atletico Madrid has one of the best midfielders. Compared with Real Madrid, Real Madrid can find many excellent midfielders, and there are even top players like Ronaldo and Kaka. However, Atletico Madrid also has many. They have former Golden Ball winners, veteran Morris who performed very well last season, and Germany's new generation of young leading German stars Ozil, and Raul Garcia is also a good midfielder. Compared with these three stars, the two young players are more popular - Isco and Coke.
Any team knows that Isco and Cork will definitely become outstanding midfielders in the future.
"If one of these two young people, one of them could come to San Siro, would definitely become the future Kaka!"
Galliani said affirmatively.
Galliani had done a lot of work before, just to study Atletico Madrid's midfielder. Galliani certainly would not be overwhelmed by Atletico Madrid's 30,000 euros. He mainly wanted to find the next midfield core for A Milan to replace Kaka. Pirlo's absence, otherwise the team would begin to consider returning from Real Madrid on loan to Kaka.
"... Moreover, these two young players are not worth a lot of money. If a Thiago Silva can get a future Kaka, plus oo ten thousand euros, this deal will not be a loss no matter how you think about it..."
Allegri was also moved.
If Galliani promised to buy Ozil or Raul Garcia, he would definitely not believe that Ozil is too expensive. With the transfer principle of A Milan, he would definitely not spend a lot of money to buy such expensive stars. Raul Garcia's value is lower, but Atletico Madrid will definitely not sell at a low price. Moreover, Raul Garcia's skills are a bit rough, so she cannot be used as a core player even if she comes to A Milan.
Morris, needless to say, is too old.
Isco and Cork are both good choices. Thinking about the fact that their subordinates will produce a top star at the Kaka level, Allegri was a little excited.
So he nodded and agreed.
Next, Milan will reply to Atletico Madrid, asking for "Coke or Isco + oo ten thousand euros" to exchange Thiago Silva.
For the above two players, it is not a problem to choose.
Isco's net worth is at least 10,000 euros, and his real transfer is even more than 1.5 million euros. Cork is not so famous, and his net worth is only about 60,000 euros.
aMilan is just a 'sloppy' reply, but in fact it is to test Atletico Madrid's attitude. If you want to trade, you will definitely have to talk about it.
This stumped Wan Sheng.
Atletico Madrid and A Milan are just the opposite. The team does not lack midfielders, especially midfielders, and what they lack is excellent defenders, especially central defenders. Like A Milan's reply, the two sides can indeed complement each other.
But... Wan Sheng was reluctant to let any young genius leave.
So Atletico Madrid continued to raise the price, raising the offer to 3.60,000 euros. A Milan directly chose to refuse without any suspense.
What should I do?
Thiago Silva, the Brazilian captain two years later, is one of the world's best defenders. Of course, he has to work hard, but Isco and Cork are also geniuses, and they will become midfield pillar players in the future.
Wan Sheng thought about it for a day, but still couldn't give up.
But in the end, we have to face the reality. In fact, after J-Roy confirmed to join, the team's midfield center was piled up. Morris, Raul Garcia, J-Ro, Mario Suarez, not to mention that Ozil has four players who can play in this position. In addition to Isco and Cork, six players compete for two positions, and the competition is too cruel.
Even if Isco and Cork stay in the team, Atletico Madrid must loan one.
Rental?
Wan Sheng's eyes lit up, so he immediately replied to A Milan, "Atletico Madrid can rent Isco or Cork to A Milan, and the buyout clause can be indicated on the contract." In this way, the club has almost no losses because they were going to rent one of them out.
Galliani also thought about the reply from Atletico Madrid. He hoped to get one of the geniuses and cultivate it into the core of Milan in the future. However, if you really buy young geniuses, you may not necessarily grow up.
This is also one of his concerns.
Buying young geniuses must have to take risks. Atletico Madrid's approach just eliminates risks. If this young genius can really grow quickly, then they can use the buyout clause to directly make him a Milan player, otherwise they can directly return it to Atletico Madrid. A Milan is equivalent to only having a loan fee.
Not bad!
So the dispute between the two clubs reached the number of the player who was loaned and the buyout terms.
Atletico Madrid clearly marked the price: both players were on loan for one year, Isco, the buyout price was 280,000 euros, while Cork was 180,000 euros.
The price of this buyout is linked to the value of the two.
Isco is more valuable than Cork, so naturally the buyout price is higher, so Galiani began to worry again. To talk about the two players, he is of course more optimistic about Isco who played more games at Atletico Madrid last season... but Isco is also more expensive.
Cork is cheap.
Cork performed stably last season but not many appearances.
Galliani thought about it and finally thought that money was more important, so he decided to choose Cork, "Anyway, they are all young geniuses. If you give them more outstanding times, your performance will definitely get better."
Chapter completed!
