Chapter 181: stimulate

November 22.
Madrid, Spain.
Overcast.
The clouds were covered with lead, and the sun was tightly covered. There was wind and no rain. The temperature dropped by eight degrees from yesterday.
Valde Bebas.
A training base for Real Madrid's first team.
The national derby game was over yesterday, but the first team players did not take a holiday. Benitez frowned and exchanged ideas with assistant coaches, and the players were listlessly training, mainly jogging and restoring physical fitness.
The entire training base is shrouded in a repressive atmosphere.
Administrative building.
Florentino walked all the way with a very cold face. Everywhere he went, everyone was silent, and the atmosphere did not dare to catch a breath.
Soon, he came to an office.
Knocked on the door and Florentino pushed in.
"Mr.president."
Seeing Florentino coming in, Real Madrid's general manager Jose Sanchez stood up quickly.
"It just happens that I have something to find you."
After Mr. Chairman was seated, Sanchez began reporting.
"Inter Milan recently put forward a quotation of 10 million euros, wanting to cancel the buyout clause of the Chinese player who passed us in the summer. This quotation is very close to our heart price. Our psychological price Between 15 million and 18 million. "
"If they increase the offer to 15 million, including 17 million euros paid last summer, the total is 32 million euros."
"The marketing department and the technical department have calculated, considering the uncertainty of the development of young players, plus the sufficient reserve of personnel in the relevant positions of the first team, we feel that such a quotation is basically in line with market positioning."
"Considering their cooperation attitude in Kovacic last summer, in order to maintain a good relationship between the two teams, I personally prefer to accept the offer from Inter Milan."
"I wonder if Mr. Chairman has any comments?"
Sanchez looked at Florentino, waiting for the chairman's reply.
Florentino pondered for a while.
"I seem a little impressed with the person you said. It was the main member of the youth team that won the youth Champions League last year. Right?"
Sanchez nodded, "Yes, Mr. President."
"He was transferred to Inter Milan, right. Inter Milan wanted to cancel the repurchase so much, how is he doing well this year?"
Florentino was a little interested.
Sanchez nodded again, "This season's Italian Serie A has played twelve rounds. At present, he has scored twelve goals. On average, he has one goal each round. His performance is very good. Child Award. "
"Oh?" Florentino was a little more enthusiastic. "That's pretty good."
"Well. Otherwise, Inter Milan would not want to cancel his repo."
"You are clear about their financial situation."
"That Indonesian asked Inter Milan to be responsible for their own profits and losses, and he also signed a settlement agreement with UEFA. According to the agreement, Inter Milan's financial pressure is very great every season. If these two seasons, he looks for If there are no new investors, or the club ’s financial situation has not improved, it may be faced with UEFA fines or even a punishment that prohibits European wars. "
"Under such circumstances, they can still quote a price of 10 million euros, which is enough to prove their importance to the young player and how well the player has performed so far." Sanchez said.
"If that's the case, why should we promise them? Good players are not over 33 years old, so we can keep them for our own use."
Florentino pouted.
The relationship between Real Madrid and Inter Milan is good, but football is ultimately a business.
No matter how good the relationship is, what about?
When it comes to the benefits of real money, Florentino is still unstoppable.
Sanchez smiled a little embarrassedly, "But the problem is that the player overlaps with Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bell. In the next two years, my colleagues in the technical department and I are not optimistic about his replacement. Either Ronaldo or Bell. And you know that Bell ’s agent has always been dissatisfied with his agent ’s position on the team. "
"If we repurchased Chu, that young player, we might have to spend at least 40 million euros."
"Forty million euros to buy as a substitute is a bit extravagant. And, importantly, such a transaction may also cause dissatisfaction with Bell's agent, which will affect the team's locker room."
"Not to mention, in his position, we also have Hesse, Vazquez, and Asensio."
"Herce also needs a chance to play, and Asencio, who has been rented out to the Spaniards, has also performed very well this season. In a recent La Liga game, Asencio staged an assisted hat trick, which is 98- Since the 99 season, the first Spanish player to play an assisted hat trick in La Liga. "
"Our technical department has a very high opinion of Asensio, and Asensio will end the loan contract with the West Toothers next season and return to Real Madrid. Our first team needs to leave him a place."
"Moreover, both Hese and Asensio are Spanish."
"In comprehensive consideration, we feel that there is no need to invest 40 million euros in a repetitive position."
"The development of young people is inherently uncertain, coupled with the different styles of Serie A and La Liga, so if Inter Milan's offer can reach our psychological price, we feel acceptable."
"If Chu really played a superstar performance in the future, we can also buy Ronaldo back when Ronaldo is about to retire. You know the situation in Inter Milan, and their Indonesian president regards the club as Arsenal. The model is operating and it ’s not difficult to buy people from them. Just like we bought Kovacic last year. "
Sanchez patiently analyzed it to the chairman.
Florentino nodded while listening.
"Oh, we went to Asia this summer, and bought a new Chinese player in China, right." He asked suddenly.
"Well." Sanchez nodded. "It's called Liang Min Lin, and he is currently in the U19 youth team at La Fabrica."
"Maybe, we can sell him another 20 million in Inter Milan next year, haha." Florentino haha ​​laughed.
Sanchez smiled, "I hope so. But Lin's talent is still worse than Chu. Of course, he hasn't been on the team for a long time, and it will take some time to observe."
"Don't say this. You can handle this matter, you don't need to ask me." Florentino waved his hand, and his face suddenly became a little sad. "You saw the game yesterday."
The smile gradually disappeared.
Sanchez's face also became dignified.
He nodded, "Of course."
Yesterday's match was a Spanish derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and it was still a national derby played in Bernabeu. Sanchez, as the club's general manager, could not have watched it.
"Shame! Shame!"
As soon as he mentioned the game, Florentino was trembling with rage.
Sanchez nodded bitterly and smiled.
Barcelona netted four goals at home.
The Bernabeu fell.
This is a one-sided game that is rare in the history of the national derby.
It is depressing enough to lose four goals.
What's more depressing is that Barcelona completely suppressed Real Madrid during the game. Benitez's team did not behave like Real Madrid at all, or even a strong team.
Barcelona made a Messi (healed after a long injury, no starter), and also sent an unrelenting Munir (at least two wasted opportunities to score), and actually pressed the BBC full and lineup Real Madrid Beat in the mire.
In the final moment of the game, even their central defender Pique unknowingly rushed into Real Madrid's penalty area and randomly inserted in the hinterland of Real Madrid's penalty area.
Bernabeu gave Iniesta applause.
At the same time, they also booed Real Madrid.
Even a lot of fans are playing slogans and shouting slogans to make Florentino get out.
After the match, Barcelona fans named Benitez as Barcelona's "best player", and Real Madrid fans will be Munier judges Real Madrid "best".
A rookie coach, a coach who proved his level in Rome (Enrique), without Messi's help, washed the Bernabeu blood, let Real Madrid face, and Florentino face dull.
Le Monde said after the game: "Barca let Benitez's Real Madrid humiliate, an undisputed 4-0 victory, and Bernabéu echoed the call of 'Florentino's resignation.'"
Florentino was very stimulated by the defeat in this game.
"I didn't like Benitez's conservative play. And, in the locker room, the players didn't stand on his side. If it wasn't for the sake of his invitation, I would have fired him. ! "
Florentino said indignantly.
Uh……
Sanchez was not surprised at all by the chairman's statement.
Ancelotti's performance last season was okay, and even the Italian coach last season brought Real Madrid the tenth Champions League trophy, but Florentino still fired him.
why?
The answer is actually very simple.
Last season's Barcelona was too beautiful, and Real Madrid was all empty.
Last season's Barcelona was the La Liga champion, the King's Cup champion and the European Champions Cup champion.
They once again achieved the triumph of the Triple Crown.
People call them the dreamy Barcelona.
The Grand Slam Barcelona and Real Madrid, which are all empty, compared with Ancelotti's performance is not too bad, Florentino can not stand.
He fired Ancelotti almost in vain, and invited Benitez.
Florentino just wanted Benitez to fight Barcelona.
Unfortunately, the wish is not yet good, but the reality is cruel. In Bernabeu, Benitez was hit 4: 0 by Enrique's Barcelona.
A complete defeat.
From the scene to the total failure of the score.
This game completely shakes Florentino's confidence in Benitez.
Looking at the violent Florentino, Sanchez thought: "I'm afraid Benitez will not survive this season."
"But ... who can take over Real Madrid midway through the season? The coaches have jobs. I can't go to Mourinho anymore, although he seems to be about to finish class ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But his relationship with Mr. Chairman is not good ... "
Sanchez got a headache and stood up.
The chairman is responsible for coaching, and he is responsible for cleaning up the mess.
However, in case Benitez is really fired, how to clean up this mess?
Sang cutting can't think of an answer for a while.
When Sanchez felt a little bit burned, Florentino suddenly fell silent.
He stared at Sanchez and said something without a word.
"José, what do you think of Zinedine?"
what?
Are you serious?
Sang cut his eyes wide and looked at Mr. Chairman without a word.
