Vol 4 Chapter 1501: Scratch lottery

When the world is arguing about the news that Yang Yang left Real Madrid, and wondering which team Yang Yang is going to go to next, they do not know that Yang Yang has quietly appeared at Amsterdam Airport.
During the time when the outside world was disturbing, he first shut himself in his home in Madrid, kept his closed-door training in a state, and took more time to watch Ajax's game video this season, and kept talking with him. Van Gaal in Amsterdam keeps in touch with Van der Sar to control Ajax's every move.
In fact, this connection has lasted for about half a year.
In the past season, Ajax finally only got the second place in the Dutch League, four points behind the champion Eindhoven. This is the result of Eindhoven ’s early release of the water in the last few rounds. If not, The gap will be widened.
The Champions League stopped at the qualifying round, the UEFA Cup was also early out, the Dutch Cup only played one round, the league once again won the runner-up, this Ajax is really unsatisfactory, so that the team has been a bit turbulent throughout the season disturbed.
Players are also worried about the current status of the team, many people are thinking about leaving.
When Yang Yang wanted to return to the national team to prepare for the World Cup, he went northward on a broken line and transferred in Amsterdam. During the night, he stayed overnight in a hotel near the airport.
Van Gaal, Van der Sar and the core senior executives of the club secretly went to the hotel to meet to discuss the preparations for the new season.
...
"Last season, the team's performance was not satisfactory, so relatively speaking, we have not received the same attention as it was a year ago, and other teams have not tapped us too much, but the situation is still not optimistic. "
Van Gaal is worried about Ajax's current situation, because the team did a terrible performance last season.
More importantly, the three-year contract between Yang Yang and the Supervisory Board is only one year left.
Has Yang Yang been able to lead Ajax to a high level of play and competition within a year?
Not to mention Van der Sar and others, even Van Gaal, who knows and is familiar with Yang Yang, feels that this is a difficult task. Even if he has always been proud of himself, he can't ask this question.
"Kluivert, I told you before, this kid is determined to leave the team, we can't persuade." Van der Sar sighed, "All of us are very optimistic about him, but he simply Can't listen. "
After Ziye pushed forward to the winger position, Kluivert Jr. and Sancho became substitutes at the winger position, and their performances were also good, but unlike Sancho, Kluivert was proud. , Apparently unwilling to substitute and rotate positions.
"What's even more terrible is that Ziye has also received the attention of many teams now, and it is likely to leave the team."
When Van der Sar said here, he looked at Yang Yang with anxiety. "If Cruyvet Jr. and Ziye H leave at the same time, then our vacancies in the frontcourt will not be small. We can only put Mullen, Stens, etc. The teenager was promoted. "
As we all know, the teenager needs time to develop, and to give the room to make mistakes, so it is difficult for the teenager to achieve results, this is well known, but next season is Ajax's key season, not tolerated Lost.
"Yeah, Ziye has performed quite well this season. He is the team's assist leader. His fighting power is very important to us." Van Gaal also felt that from the perspective of team stability, retain Ziye Very important.
Yang Yang nodded, "Then let Kluivert go away and sell for a good price."
After two years of reorganization, Ajax ’s youth training camp is also full of talents. Previously, when Keizer coached, he led the team to win the second place in the Dutch League. In the past season, Ajax The youth team won the championship in the Netherlands.
If it is not for the first team and the youth team to be in the same league, the Ajax youth team should be promoted to the Dutch League.
From this point, it is not difficult to see that in the past two seasons, under the control of Yang Yang, Van Gaal and Van der Sar, Ajax has really undergone earth-shaking changes in the youth training camp.
Kluivert was talented, but not enough to make Ajax soft against him.
More importantly, if Ajax withdrew this time, then all teenagers would be like this, what would Ajax do?
"And Vobel, this kid's agent appeared in Seville a few days ago."
"Seville?"
Van Gaal nodded,
Barcelona just signed midfielder Artur from Brazil ’s Gremio, followed by a desire to build a back line, and the number one signing target is Seville ’s central defender Langley, It is said that the current transfer has made a substantial breakthrough, and Seville wants to introduce Vobel to fill the vacancy in Langley. "
Vobell is just this past season. Ajax's main defender, partnering with Derricht, the two perform well, both are very young, Vobell is only 20 years old, and is a left-footer, relatively scarce .
Sevilla has always liked to introduce this kind of young talents with potential and talents, and then sell them at a high price. This is also the way of Seville's survival in La Liga. More importantly, this team Not only can he play in the four major leagues, but he has also played well in European competitions all year round.
However, this is not a big problem for Ajax, because Ajax has already been prepared.
"How did you talk to São Paulo?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
Before, Van Gaal and the scouting team identified a lot of young central defenders. Later, after careful selection, four people were selected and detailed information and videos were sent to Yang Yang. Yang Yang and Van Gaal, After repeated discussions, Van der Sar and others finally chose São Paulo's young central defender Militan.
This player has excellent physical fitness, fast speed, can be competent in midfield and midfielder, and can even play right back. It is very comprehensive, has a live step, and has a good passing ability, basically in line with Yang Yang's previous positioning.
"Basically, it's almost the same. Later, Porto also kicked in halfway, but we started relatively quickly, and it was done with six million euros." Van Gaal said it was a fluke.
It was he who flew to Sao Paulo, Brazil, to negotiate. He made the bid directly on the spot, and six million won it.
"Has Maxwell helped?" Yang Yang asked with a smile.
Van Gaal nodded. "It was because he helped him that it went so smoothly. Now he is the head of our scouting network in Brazil and South America, looking for good young talent for us."
"Is there any gain?" Yang Yang asked with a smile.
Maxwell and Yang Yang have always been in contact with each other, and they also cooperated with each other. After retiring, he first stayed in Paris for a while, but he wanted to return to Brazil, so under Yang Yang's persuasion, he became Ajax. In a part of the Brazilian scouting network, Maxwell was able to sign successfully this time, and Maxwell also contributed a lot.
Brazil's domestic environment is very complex, especially the football environment. With Maxwell, a native who knows everything, it is more convenient for Ajax to introduce talents.
"At the end of last year, he went to the United States with our scouts to watch the Brazilian youth team's game. In March, he went to Montague, France, to watch the World Youth Invitational Tournament. Several of the players are indeed quite good." Van Gaal praised .
The Montague Invitational Tournament is a traditional event. There are many similar events in France, such as the more famous ones. It is also the Toulon Cup that Yang Yang has participated in, but only for different ages.
"For example, last year the Brazilian u16 and the Dutch u16 met in the warm-up cup in the United States. At that time, the Dutch team had five Ajax players, so we specially arranged for scouts, and the most impressive cup is the young Brazilian. Midfielder Giovanni, who was only fifteen at the time, scored twice in the game against the Netherlands and scored three goals in three games. "
"In March of this year's Montague Invitational, we still arranged a lot of scouts in the past. The most eye-catching was Brazil midfielder Rainier. He scored four goals in four games and performed very well, as well as the forward. Gabriel Belon, although only scored one goal, but the ability to break the ball is very good. "
"How high is the feasibility?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
"They haven't played for the first team of the club they are in, and they are only fifteen or sixteen years old. If we are interested and take the lead, there should be no problem, that is, the price should be sufficient, and the training fee. "
The route taken by Ajax is different from Real Madrid.
Real Madrid is a wealthy type, specializing in picking the most top-notch geniuses, such as Venius, and the Santos genius Rodrigo recently connected with Real Madrid. Both of these players are recognized geniuses in Brazil, and they have proved that Own potential and talent, but the price is also particularly high, basically about 40-50 million euros.
Ajax certainly has no way to salivate these players, so he can only pick his own ability, or he can start earlier, pay for it first, then lease it back to the Brazilian club, and give him another training every year. Fee, wait until he turns eighteen, and then return to Ajax.
The advantage of this is that the transfer fee is not too high, which is within the range of Ajax, but the age is relatively small, the risk is relatively large, even if Ajax's scouts are even more powerful, they cannot be sure of a ten. Whether five- or six-year-old players will be able to gain a foothold in the Europa League.
"How much?"
"All three are around three million euros."
Yang Yang frowned slightly, that is to say, it would cost about ten million euros to buy it all.
This is why Van Gaal hesitated to start.
For Ajax, there is not much to say, but there is not much to say.
"Go ahead, scratch the lottery!
Real Madrid made a big bet, Ajax would be cheaper, who would have no money?
"The right back still has to continue searching." Yang Yang ordered.
Van Gaal and Van der Sar looked at each other with a wry smile. Now the right back of European football is scarce.
"By the way, how is your coaching team formed?" Van Gaal suddenly thought of the most important question.
