"Of course it's true!" Noticing Villa's shocked and somewhat skeptical expression, Walsh quickly took out the plan he carried with him and turned to the page with Villa's name on it. "Look, this is the summer recruitment plan made by George himself. On it, your name is highlighted by him!"
By the way, it should be mentioned here that Villa's transfer was originally supposed to be made by George himself. However, he did not expect that after signing Ronaldo, the Vivian Fountain incident happened in the Confederations Cup, which forced George to put down the work at hand and the opportunity to desert, and hurried back to London to increase the capacity of the bench. As a result, the job of recruiting Villa fell on the shoulders of Walsh, who had just transferred from Chelsea.
The reason why George will hand over this important task to Walsh, who has just arrived, is because he really can't get away now. The team's pre-season training date is approaching, and he must seize all the time to get it done before the training starts. All matters so that he can concentrate on running the team together; on the other hand, this is also a way for George to express his trust in Walsh and allow him to integrate into the club as soon as possible.
"Well, that seems to be the case." Villa leaned over to take a look and found that things were indeed as Walsh said. The words "key transfer target" were specially marked behind his name, "Walsh Sir, I have another question. Why is it that in this plan, my column says "Consideration", while Drogba and Petr Cech on the previous pages are marked "must win" Woolen cloth?"
After learning from Walsh that the Tottenham owner and head coach whom he had never met before did indeed attach great importance to him, Villa was naturally very moved, and the matter of joining Tottenham no longer seemed like it at first. So conflicted. However, when he discovered that someone was actually valued more than him, the Spaniard was somewhat concerned - perhaps in the eyes of the head coach, Cech and Drogba did have the ability to become the backbone of the team, so that's why He became a target that must be won; but his ability was not bad, and the importance he attached to him was indeed reflected in the plan. Why was there such a difference in the end?
I have to say that what Walsh did is really beautiful. If before this, Villa's expectation for himself was only to gain a foothold in the La Liga relegation team, then after learning that Tottenham valued him and George, the championship coach, recognized his ability, he felt angry Villa, who was inspired, already looked down on promoted teams like Zaragoza and believed that he had the ability to play for a higher-level team. However, among these higher-level clubs, only Tottenham has plans to introduce him. Coupled with George's aura as "the best young coach in the Premier League", Villa, who was unknowingly induced by Walsh to raise his psychological expectations, became more and more inclined to play for Tottenham.
Perhaps compared with long-established coaching seniors such as Wenger and Ferguson, George's achievements in winning a Premier League championship trophy are nothing, but in the eyes of players like Villa who were born in low-level leagues, George has already He is a famous coach that they rarely have access to. Playing under a coach who has won the Premier League championship is obviously a huge temptation for Villa!
"Mr. Villa, haven't you said this reason before?" After hearing Villa's question, Walsh looked at Villa with a smile, making the latter feel uncomfortable. After that, he answered the other party's doubts, "You know, in this era, whether a transfer can be completed is not just a matter between the two clubs. The player's own wishes also play a considerable role in the process. Effect. During our previous evaluation, the possibility of Mr. Villa leaving the Spanish League and joining Tottenham, an unfamiliar place, was not high, so it was marked as 'discretionary consideration'."
Villa smiled sheepishly upon hearing Walsh's reply. Obviously, he is also aware of the reason why this word appears, and at the same time he has a deeper understanding of the importance Tottenham attaches to him - if he had not carefully inspected him, the other party would not have come up with such a detailed report. information, it is impossible to know his thoughts so well.
Walsh's words successfully dispelled the last trace of worry in Villa's mind. Therefore, in the following time, it can be said that the guests and hosts had a good conversation, and the issue of Villa's personal treatment at Tottenham Hotspur was quickly settled.
In this way, as Villa signed his name on a five-year contract with an annual salary of 500,000 pounds and various bonuses, the future number one striker in Spanish football and the No. 1 Matador in history A striker becomes a member of the Tottenham Hotspur first team!
However, when Tottenham officially announced that they had introduced their main forward David Villa from the Spanish second division club Sporting Gijon for a transfer fee of 1 million pounds, almost the entire English football world was laughing at George's deal. Sign a contract!
After all, Tottenham had been operating with great fanfare for so long, offering Henry and seducing Crespo, as if they really wanted to get Tottenham a world-class forward. Therefore, when people discovered that the final result of George's efforts was to buy a little-known young forward from a Spanish second division team, they naturally attracted countless people's ridicule and ridicule.
If George hadn't shown his extraordinary coaching ability last season, and also spent heavily to introduce fringe international players from football powers such as Carrick and Heinze, as well as Cech and Vidic, who are the main players in second-tier national teams in Europe, I'm afraid Tottenham fans will take to the streets now to protest George's actions in the transfer market.
Now, the reason why Tottenham fans have not taken actual action is that when George was coaching Manchester United last season, there was a successful case of allowing Veron, a parallel import, to bloom again to his former glory. Therefore, Tottenham fans have some expectations. They hope that George can also use his Midas touch ability after arriving at White Hart Lane, and train these seemingly unimpressive players like Arsene Wenger, the coach of the archrival Arsenal next door. Become a talented person.
Just as George was carefully preparing for the new season, the helpers promised by Charlie Johnson finally arrived belatedly, and with Charlie's help, they all signed jobs with Tottenham shortly after arriving in London. contract and became a member of Tottenham Hotspur Club. Among these people, the one who impressed George the most was naturally Thomas Tuchel, the future famous coach!
"Tuchel, are you saying that Leverkusen is now interested in selling their players?" After hiring Thomas Tuchel to join the Tottenham coaching staff and giving him full responsibility for the management of Tottenham's youth team, During a casual chat with the other party, George accidentally learned a very important piece of news - Leverkusen, which won the Sanya championship in the 2001-02 season, is now planning to sell its players!
"That's right, Joe...Boss." Due to George's special status, Tuchel hesitated for a moment before changing his words, "Because Leverkusen ended up only fourth from the bottom in the Bundesliga standings last season. The relegation, coupled with the bankruptcy of the Bundesliga main broadcaster Kirch Group, led to a significant reduction in its financial revenue. And the Bayer Group behind Leverkusen was unwilling to inject capital into it, which made Leverkusen Sen's current financial situation has become extremely difficult. At least until I resign as the head coach of the Stuttgart U19 team, Stuttgart is also considering the possibility of poaching players from Leverkusen."
George took the news brought by Tuchel very seriously. Although Leverkusen had already been poached by Bayern at this time, Ze Roberto and Ballack, its two main pillars, last season's record in the Bundesliga was also extremely poor, and the experience of successfully avoiding relegation at the last moment was even more disappointing. People have significantly lowered their expectations for it, but George knows in his heart that there are still many players in the current "pharmaceutical factory" who are outstanding but are underestimated because of the team's poor performance - such as the Brazilian international. Lucio, the "dashing brother" Berbatov from Bulgaria, Basturk, the hero who led Turkey to the third place in the World Cup in Korea and Japan, and Daniel Biero, the left wing dribbler who once dominated the Bundesliga. Fka!
Therefore, after learning that Leverkusen was prepared to reduce its financial burden by selling players and exchange for funds to maintain the club's normal operations, George did not hesitate to choose to take action!
For "Fat Manager" Carlmund, the past 2002-03 season was undoubtedly the most nightmare season since he took the post of general manager of Leverkusen. Not only were the two pillars Ballack and Ze Roberto poached by Bayern at a low price, but the team that had accomplished the great feat of "King of Sanya" in the Bundesliga, German Cup and Champions League the previous year was also on board. The season was difficult, and it was not until the last moment that the team was narrowly avoided relegation. This series of blows made the fat manager who single-handedly turned Leverkusen from a second-tier Bundesliga team into a formal member of the G14 organization feel mentally and physically exhausted.
Although Carlmond had long prepared for the departure of Ze Roberto and Ballack, what Carlmond did not expect was that the two successors he personally selected would become his successors without exception. A rare transfer failure during his tenure as general manager of Leverkusen - Bielovka completely lost the dribbling style on the left when he played in 1860 Munich. Jan Simak even changed the "bad boy" His charisma is on full display, and his ability to cause trouble far outweighs his contribution.
The midfield pillar was poached by Bayern, and there were no capable players to make up for the loss in time. In addition, main players such as LaMelo, Sebeczen, and Placent were frequently troubled by injuries, and their attendance rate and competitive status were both poor. Not as good as before... It was under the combined effect of these factors that Leverkusen fell at the speed of light last season, turning from a top team into a Super Cup player.
As a result, Carlmond had to choose to sell some players this summer to balance the club's poor financial situation due to its failure to qualify for the Champions League and to reduce the team's salary expenditure. However, because Leverkusen's performance last season was so bad, and most of the main players were either lingering on the sick bed or declining in form, Carlmond's cleaning work did not go smoothly.
Therefore, when Paratici arrived at Leverkusen as Tottenham's negotiator, preparing to negotiate the transfer of several Leverkusen players, Carlmond could not wait to immediately send people to line up at the entrance of the headquarters to greet him and beat the gong. Play drums and set off firecrackers to welcome the other party to the "Leverkusen Player Supermarket".
