Although Fiorentina has hit a continuous wall in the transfer between Xavi Alonso and Schweinsteiger this summer, this did not make Zhuang Mingge panic. After all, he had expected this situation in advance, but he didn't expect it to be going to the worst side. Alonso and Schweinsteiger, two players he is very optimistic about, both refused, but Fiorentina's recruitment led to Zhuang Mingge having to continue looking for players who can play substitute for Pirlo while the team has begun pre-season training.
Although it is just a substitute for Pirlo, in fact, since Fiorentina still faces a multi-line battle in the new season and the long-standing tradition of the core organizational back-standing that Purple Lily has developed, this substitute player will definitely not be less than twenty games in Fiorentina. For most young players, this is a game time that can give them enough training opportunities but will not cause hidden dangers to their growth and development. If there are more, unless it is an iron man like Nedved, who has a physical fitness far exceeding ordinary people, it will definitely lay some hidden dangers in the bodies of these young players.
As for the reasons why Schweinsteiger and Alonso rejected the conditions offered by Fiorentina, they can only say that their ambitions are too great. The guarantee of playing twenty games in a season cannot satisfy their appetite. In other words, they want Fiorentina to give them a stable main position and a higher team status so that they can have the opportunity to participate in the German World Cup two years later as internationals.
Here I would like to add that after learning that Zhuang Mingge was interested in Schweiingsteiger, Barack originally wanted to make a move and took advantage of the opportunity of training in the national team to persuade Xiaozhu, so that he would seriously consider the transfer to Florence. However, before Barack could take this idea into action, Zhuang Mingge, who learned the news, stopped it in time.
"Michael, forget it, the forced melon is not sweet. Since Schweinsteiger clearly stated that he was not interested in joining Fiorentina, there is no need to pursue him. In less than two years, this kid will regret today's decision." Zhuang Mingge, who has a super golden finger, has naturally known the future development of the Piglets. Before Van Gaal coached Hollywood in Bundesliga, Schweinsteiger's situation at Bayern can be said to be worse than that of one year. From his first debut, the Star of Hope gradually became mediocre, and even was taken away by Ribery in the main position, he could only wait for opportunities on the bench. His position in the national team was also shaking under the impact of the younger Ozil and others.
It can be said that if Van Gaal had not asked him to play his strengths and avoid his weaknesses and instead play the midfielder of the organization, there would have been no world-class midfielder who would have led the entire German team later.
Regarding the fact that the team has been unable to find a midfielder who can rotate with Pirlo, Mourinho did not complain about Zhuang Mingge, but began to think about how to let other players share this part of the task after Pirlo's rest. The Portuguese believe that with Fiorentina's staffing configuration, it is still not a problem to fill this loophole.
You should know that Chelsea and Greece at the European Cup have proved with practical actions that even if there is no top star, they can make up for the shortcomings in this regard through collective strength. Therefore, Mourinho, who believes that his tactical level is no worse than Ranieri and Hey Hagel, believes that even if the team fails to find a qualified substitute in the end, he can also properly solve this problem. After all, only in this way can Mourinho prove his coaching ability to these players in the team in the shortest time, right?
Mourinho knew very well that although he became the head coach of the first team of Fiorentina with Zhuang Mingge's support, and he also gained the initial recognition of the players with his years of work experience in the club, his slightly weak coaching qualifications are still fatal injuries. Once Fiorentina's record fluctuates or even declines, Mourinho will inevitably be questioned from all sides!
Therefore, if he can effectively solve this problem with existing resources when Pirlo is missing a substitute, Mourinho can at least gain more trust from the players, thereby further enhancing control of the locker room.
While Mourinho racked his brains to figure out how to solve this problem, Zhuang Mingge did not stop searching for players. In order to save time as much as possible, he also made offers to many clubs in order to make up for Florence's shortcomings in the midfield in the shortest time.
However, other club managers are not fools. Seeing Zhuang Mingge's actions all over the world looking for the midfield and looking at the player configuration of the Fiorentine first team, they immediately understood that Fiorentine is now in a hurry to find a reliable substitute for Pirlo. So, when Zhuang Mingge sent someone to ask for the price, most club managers acted as if asking for a price in a sky-high manner, preparing to earn a large transfer fee in Fiorentina!
Zhuang Mingge also knew the thoughts of these club managers. However, he could only do his best to avoid Fiorentina being regarded as a sucker in this transfer - who made Fiorentina expose such obvious weaknesses in the midfield configuration this time? If these club managers don’t take the opportunity to slap them, that would be a hell!
Finally, after a week of screening and negotiations, Espanyol Mikel Arteta became Florence's last signing this summer. In order to get the main midfielder of the Glasgow Rangers, Florence paid the Scottish giant a 5 million euro transfer fee to the Scottish giant, which settled the deal.
The ability to win Arteta at such a relatively low price is thanks to the Glasgow Rangers who were eager to fill the financial deficit caused by the large investment in the transfer market in the past few years and the fact that Scottish football has been declining in recent years, which made Zhuang Mingge take advantage of this transfer. Otherwise, this Scottish giant would definitely make a move without hesitation.
