Chapter 516: Magic bird out of the mountain

Henry is about to transfer!
Bernabeu? Meazza? Camp Nou? Alp?
Public opinion on Fleet Street is increasingly inclined to Henry's inevitable transfer and departure this summer.
Suspense is just where he will eventually go.
The outside world has noticed the unusual signs inside Millwall.
Millwall has always been squandering things quickly, and never drags on.
The news that the first team’s main contract has been renewed one after another continues to inspire fans of the Lions. For the fans, their team is already good enough, and it is not uncommon for any star to come to Millwall, as long as the original class It's worth celebrating if the horses can stay.
And to leave, Makelele's transfer to Real Madrid was announced in June. In July, Makelele's transaction was also completed without accident.
Fans have regrets and regrets about Makelele leaving, but as Fleet Street analyzed, they can understand.
At Millwall, Makelele is really hard to go further.
Ask a hundred crazy lion fans, who are the most important three or five players on the team?
Larson, Nedved, Southgate, Henry, Pirlo, and Ronaldinho are the names that appear most often.
Originally, offensive players are more brilliant than defensive players, and more easily sought after. Remember, this is the practice on the football field.
Only in a team that has a weak offensive but can succeed, the defensive players are particularly eye-catching and are regarded as the mainstay.
However, Millwall's offense was gorgeous and magnificent. Makelele was very important, but he could not get more fame. His light was completely covered by Millwall's efficient and terrifying attack group.
Real Madrid, who happened to make a move to Makelele, is the most important team to improve defense. Since Capello left, Real Madrid, which won the league title and ranked second in the league, has been in the league for the past three seasons. The line of defense is terrible. Can someone imagine the defensive stats of 62 goals conceded by Real Madrid in 38 rounds?
In a sense, Makelele just wanted to come to the Bernabeu with the role of "savior". He is a defensive player, and defense can bring championships!
This is the "new challenge" he told Aldrich want to transfer.
Millwall developed from a civilian, or a diminished man, to a wealthy man after six years, and the nobles can't talk about it, but the club's reputation, influence, record, and attention have made them become wealthy, especially in the club. When you have a top course that matches it.
Similarly, player value and income have also risen.
They are rich. Most of the players who once lived in the Millwall community have moved away from here. That is their freedom.
Aldrich lives here now and sees the faces of some young players the most.
For example, De Rossi and Ronaldo, who grew up, do not have to live in the dormitory of the young team's young players, but have their own apartment.
Aldrich asked Ewen to choose a new house he wanted. He wanted to end his current single life. He already had the idea of ​​getting married in his mind, or that it had come a little late.
But before that, he still had to live in the original apartment.
The club's summer work was in full swing, Aldridge put aside Henry's thing for the time being, he had other work to do.
Sell ​​players!
This is definitely not to sell the first team players. If you want to sell the first team players, why do you renew the contract?
Just like last year, a group of players who had reached the age and needed to play were packaged and sold to Leeds United. This year, Millwall still needs to list some players for sale.
They have reached the age when they have to play. The strength of the youth team and the reserve team, the quality of the game, can no longer provide them with experience, so that they can better improve. If Millwall continues to keep them, but they cannot play for them. Opportunities will definitely make them "desolate" at the most critical age!
The cost of the youth team is huge. Being able to deliver blood to the first team is a basic goal, but the first team does not need it. It can be exchanged for real money. Replenishing this investment may be profitable. It is better than smashing it.
The youth team or the reserve team, every summer, some players are always targeted by the lower-level league teams. After the club informed that they would give up, they let them go freely, and some of them can’t play at the age. , The club will provide a coaching contract for them to transfer, if they are willing.
The power of the transfer between the youth team and the reserve team players, Aldridge is directly given to Najib, Najib has the right to make decisions, but only for the transactions under the top league, if there is an invitation from a top league club, you need to Aldridge finally decided.
Najib’s vision and professionalism are absolutely ok, Aldridge trusts him very much. In these years, Najib has not let go of any star of hope in Aldrich’s eyes. It was decided that it was necessary to let go, such as Cahill, Bresiano, and their departure.
When Aldridge reviewed a player list sent by Najib, he received a call from the club and someone came to see him and wanted to interview him about the transfer of players.
Aldridge heard the name of the caller and immediately became happy, and notified the club to tell the other person that he was waiting for the visitor to come to the apartment in his apartment.
At three in the afternoon, Aldridge waited for someone to come.
He opened the door and reached out to the man in suit and leather outside the door: "Hello, Jose, the last time I met, it should have been almost two years ago?"
"Hello, Mr. Hall."
The person named Mourinho.
The last time he met Aldridge, it should have been in the UEFA Champions League group match the year before, when Millwall played against Barcelona.
But at that time, Mourinho was not the protagonist, he was only a minor role to assist Van Gaal.
What is he doing today?
Is it effective for Aldridge?
Of course impossible!
This summer, Mourinho has made up his mind.
Never go to be an interpreter, and no longer be an assistant coach!
I will do it alone!
At this time, Mourinho's appearance is still slightly green, which is relative to the appearance standard of many coaches in football. In front of Audridge, he can be more mature!
Mourinho looked serious and restrained. He came alone and walked into the living room under the warm reception of Aldridge. He sat down on the sofa and said straight away: "Mr. Hall, I am the new coach of Benfica. Come here and want to talk to you about the transfer of the two players."
There was tea on the table, Aldridge prepared in advance. He tilted his legs and sat opposite Mourinho, raising his hand to signal the other side to continue.
"One is Paul Ferreira and the other is Hugo Viana. They are all Portuguese players. Given that they don’t have more opportunities to exercise at Millwall, I think they can return to the domestic league. With good growth, Millwall introduced them with almost no cost, and Benfica hopes to take the two players away for £4 million."
Mourinho said seriously, this is probably the first time in his life to enjoy the power brought by the coach, waving a check to introduce his favorite players.
Ferreira is a substitute for the first team right back, Viana is still in the reserve team, is an attacker, and performs well.
The two add up to 4 million pounds?
This is obviously ridiculously low.
But adding some more is not too much.
After all, Viana has never proven anything, and Ferreira only made his debut in the secondary game. Whether the role can be shouldered is unknown.
"Sorry, Jose, you are late."
Aldridge smiled frankly.
Mourinho frowned and asked, "Has Millwall sold these two players? We have not heard from other clubs about their offer."
Aldridge shrugged: "No, because Millwall's transfer window is closed in half, we will not let go of any first team players, especially under the premise that Ferreira just renewed the contract. It is our tradition to determine the lineup earlier and prepare for the battle earlier, so as to ensure the stability of the team and lay the foundation for the new season. In fact, if we are to do business, we will basically start from the end of the season to the transfer window. Everything was settled in the middle of the time, so you are late."
"But, you used to..."
"Yes, Millwall did release players during the preparation period, but, as you said, before, that was before, now Millwall, not Millwall before."
Aldridge smiled, Mourinho frowned, he sighed: "So, Viana will enter the first team this season?"
"No, we are considering renting him out, but not selling, because he has the potential, we will decide his future at the right time, he can play for the first team, we stay, otherwise we will sell him , But not now."
Mourinho said after a moment of thought: "So, can Viana be leased to Benfica? He returns to the domestic league, and in a familiar environment, it is conducive to his growth."
Aldridge still shook his head and said: "Sorry, we considered lending him to the Portuguese league, but Benfica is not in the list of clubs we are considering."
Mourinho didn't understand it at this time, and asked: "Why? I can guarantee his playing time. I have watched the video of his training in the reserve team, which is impressive."
Aldridge smiled as before, and said softly: "Jose, the reason is better not to say."
"No, if you respect me, please tell me frankly."
"Well, if you insist on listening, then I will be honest. We don't think Benfica may provide Viana with a stable exercise environment."
Mourinho wondered: "What do you mean?"
"Well, Benfica invited a new coach. You, a young coach who has never had coaching experience, Jose, I admire you and are optimistic about you, but I am not the boss of Benfica nor a person with power on the board. So, I have confidence in you, but Benfica may not have enough patience with you. Today we rent Viana to Benfica. If, within six months, you have class, the rest of his time in Benfica may be wasted. ."
Mourinho showed a smile, seeming to disdain, then shook his head slightly and said to Audric: "Mr. Hall, I originally thought we were the same kind of people, young, passionate, and full of motivation to realize our dreams. I will take action down to earth, but when you become famous, you become vulgar and hypocritical. In fact, your subtext is: I, Jose Mourinho, my promise to you, promise to Viana's playing time is worthless, not as shit! Right?"
Aldridge smiled and shook his head, saying: "No, if you know me, you will know that I am telling the truth. For example, I have a good relationship with a coach who coaches the Ligue 1 club. His name is Moyes, he is in In the season of firefighting to take Preston, he loaned players to me, I promised, why? Because I am sure that his guarantee can be achieved, Preston ranked at the bottom of the league at that time, where could it be worse? Moyes will definitely be able to lead the team to play the second half of the season, his guarantee is reliable. But what about you? The club you are currently in is named Benfica, one of the three big names in Portugal. How high is the expectation of Benfica? You can The guarantee is absolutely satisfactory to the board of directors, will you lead the team through this entire season? Is it guaranteed to stabilize the coach with a record that matches Benfica's status? You can't guarantee it, so I said that Benfica has unstable factors."
Mourinho stood up with a ridiculous smile and pointed to Aldridge as if he still wanted to say something, and finally turned away, and when he walked out of Aldridge's door, his eyes became The sharpness is extremely sharp, and the expression is slightly greasy.
One day!
I will prove that I am stronger than you!
At that time, could you still talk to me with this attitude? Do you question me? !
