Chapter 72 Bad Guys
Good people need to do it, bad people need to do it too.
On Christmas, almost all Manchester City received Christmas gifts, and almost, it means that someone did not receive them. This person is Robinho.
Long before the game against Sunderland, Robinho had already taken leave and returned to Brazil, so naturally he could not receive gifts from the club. Due to being abandoned by Linson, after December, the Brazilians have had a few transfer scandals in the English tabloids almost every day, but what is the actual situation? The actual situation is that there are indeed many clubs interested in, including teams like Barcelona. Henry's playing time has been greatly reduced this season, and the French striker has basically determined to leave the team next season. Although young player Pedro performed well, Henry's position still needs a replacement. Robinho is undoubtedly an excellent candidate. However, it is obvious that Barcelona does not want to destroy the team's balance for a player who does not have the qualification of the Champions League for the time being, so they just asked for the price and there was no further information.
There are only two that can be called the quote, one is from Juventus, Italy. Since the phone door, Juventus, which has been seriously injured, has changed its lineup almost every year, but their transfer still lacks heavyweight signings. On the front line, although they are currently claiming to have four major strikers, Piero, Trezege, Yaqunta and Amauri. The first two are famous enough, but they are also old, and the latter are both famous and in terms of strength.
The first two are far apart. Juventus has temporarily ranked fifth in Serie A so far so far this season. This is obviously not a small difference from their desire to compete for the championship at the beginning of the season. Therefore, it is not surprising that they want to introduce Robinho. However, Juventus ranked first in Serie A in the summer transfer net investment, and it is obvious that they cannot spend too much money to meet Manchester City in winter. Therefore, their plan is to rent first and then buy for two million, and buy for two million at the end of the season.
Another offer comes from Brazil's Robinho's parent team Santos, whose offer is also a loan contract. However, there is no buyout clause, the loan period is half a year. During the loan period, they will bear all Robinho's salary.
For Manchester City, neither of these two offers are what they want, because Robinho, who has been clearly abandoned by Linson, prefers to transfer rather than loan. However, in the winter transfer, Mawood also knows that there are not many choices, personally, he actually prefers the latter. The reason why it is not Juventus is because the buyout clause of Juventus is not mandatory. During the second loan period, they are only willing to bear half of Robinho's salary. The first point makes Juventus' loan contract actually no different from Santos, and the second point makes Juventus' two million loan fee meaningless, because even if it is only half a year, Robinho's half of his salary will still cost Manchester City more than two million.
Obviously, Robinho's situation gave them the opportunity to get a bargain. But Mawood didn't want them to get a bargain. So his plan was to rent it out first and then sell it in the summer, but before that, he needed to confirm something first.
Lin Sen did not originally intend to ask about Robinho's transfer, but Ma Wood took the initiative to come to the goal, but this time Ma Wood did not want to hand over the matter to Lin Sen. He just wanted to know Robinho's position in Lin Sen's heart. What surprised Ma Wood was that Lin Sen gave him a number without hesitation: 25 million.
In the transfer market, the so-called positioning is to put it bluntly. It is pricing.
Robinho's net worth is certain, but the question is just how much it is. The media rumor that the price of Manchester City introduced Robinho last year was more than 40 million euros, but Lin Sen knew that the exact number was 32.5 million pounds, which is about 38 million euros. First of all, this number is definitely inflated, but considering that Manchester City urgently needed a big-name star at that time, and it was snatching food from Chelsea, it is not incomprehensible that the price was high. Real Madrid spent 24 million to bring Robinho from Brazil to Spain. Robinho's development at first was not smooth, but it was a little better in the season before transferring to Manchester City. Therefore, if other factors were not taken into account, the Brazilian's net worth should be around 30 million, which means a slight increase.
In his first season at Manchester City, last season, Robinho scored fourteen goals at Manchester City. This number is not very outstanding, but it can be considered as worthy of his value. Then this season, he scored five goals in eleven games in the third line. In fact, he played seven times in the league and scored three goals. It is not very outstanding, but it will not cause his value to rise or fall too much.
According to this calculation, Robinho's value should still be around 30 million, of course, the bigger possibility is to go down. But Linson gave Mawood a price of 25 million, because sometimes the player's value cannot be measured completely based on his performance on the court. Manchester City is not short of money so that they can not affect the player's signings without Robinho still in the team, but if it is another team, players like Robinho, even ordinary people.
It is also difficult to bypass Robinho. If you don’t talk about anything else, you can’t stand it. Furthermore, Linson’s abandonment of Robinho, which is like second-hand goods. Purchase and sale are completely different. If you don’t want to sell, the thing will not become second-hand goods. Then, the thing will be worth as much as it should be, and it can even be more expensive. But if you put it on the shelves, it will become second-hand goods. Even if it is brand new, it can only be the price of second-hand goods.
Two reasons have caused Lin Sen to lower his net worth by another 5 million, so Robinho's net worth will now be around 25 million. Although Juventus has been making continuous failures in the transfer market in the past two years, Robinho's valuation should be relatively accurate.
"So low!" Lin Sen's valuation made Mawood frown. Obviously, he had a higher valuation of Robinho.
"It's not low." Lin Sen shook his head. In his memory, Robinho transferred to Italy in the summer after half a year of loan to Santos. However, it was not Juventus, but AC Milan. At that time, AC Milan paid 18 million yuan for Robinho, and it was still paid in installments. It is said that there are follow-up fees, but it is unlikely that it will exceed 20 million yuan. Robinho performed better in Lin Sen's subordinates this season than he remembered, but the trajectory has not changed. Lin Sen felt that the increase in value would not be too large.
"I understand." Hearing Lin Sen's words, Ma Wood didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and said goodbye and left.
On the same day, Ma Wood responded to the quotes of the two clubs. The reply to Santos was relatively simple, with only two words: agree. As for the reply to Juventus, it was more harsh: the rental fee remained unchanged, but the entire salary must be borne. At the same time, the buyout fee is also unchanged by 22 million, but it must be forced to buy out. Then Ma Wood added a sentence later: No counter-offer.
Generally speaking, Mawood still prefers to rent.
----------------
After Christmas, Manchester City in December had two opponents in the league, namely Stoke City and Wolves. Wolves have met for the second time this season. Therefore, Stoke City is the last opponent in the league halftime, and one of the two opponents that Lin Sen has not met in the entire Premier League. The other is Everton, who should have met in the second round, but that game was finally postponed because Manchester City needed to participate in the Gambel Cup. The official Premier League official has not yet made a conclusion, because Manchester City's schedule this season has been very dense, and it still maintains a three-tier line-to-three line-to-three line-to-three line-to-one. In addition, the FA Cup is about to start, and then it will be the fourth line. Therefore, God knows that the second round of the supplementary match will be delayed until the Year of the Monkey Horse Month.
Although Linson had lost one day of training time on Christmas holidays, at least the team could have a good mood. On December 27, Manchester City faced Stoke City at home, and the outbreak of Bale decided to make the whole game. The Welshman completely destroyed Stoke City captain Andy Griffin on the left, and the method was particularly simple, which was speed.
First pass the ball, then use the speed to force the overtake, and then go straight in.
In three simple steps, Andy Griffin was helpless back three times, and Denmark's national goalkeeper Sorensen had to pick up the ball from the goal three times.
The three-to-zero score made Manchester City finally usher in another two-game winning streak, and also allowed Manchester City to continue to approach Chelsea in the standings. Since Chelsea was tied by Birmingham away in this round, the distance between the two is now three-pointers. That is to say, if Manchester City can win the make-up game, then Chelsea's lead over Manchester City will only have the advantage of goal difference.
After the game, Lin Sen did not praise Bale, but continued to praise Bale's unique way of performing last time. He announced at the press conference that Bale's current value is: 35 million. The media knew that Lin Sen was still holding a grudge, because before, they had satirized Manchester City for spending 27 million to buy a fragile vase when Bale was in a downturn. Now, as long as Bale performs well, Lin Sen will definitely help Bale increase its value. As for poor performance, Lin Sen will selectively forget Bale.
On December 29, the last league game of this year, different courts, the same opponents, the same score, and a three-to-zero. This time, the goal heroes became David Silva and Robben. It is worth mentioning that after the last game, Bale, who had muscle fatigue, was forced to be on the bench by Lin Sen in this round because Lin Sen saw dangerous signs on his legs.
Three consecutive victories are already the longest winning streak since the start of the sixth straight win. Although in this game, because Chelsea won at home, Manchester City finally failed to counterattack Chelsea at the last moment to become the winter champion, Manchester City did not lose any gains in this game, that is, Manchester City, which is still three-pointers behind Chelsea, eliminated the opponent's goal difference advantage through three goals in this game.
Now, as long as Manchester City can win the make-up game, then the leader will be Manchester City.
Three days later, the new year is approaching and the winter transfer window opens. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
