Chapter 242: Dutch giants are angry

Millwall's pre-season preparations proceeded in an orderly manner, and at the end of July also kicked off the prelude to the friendly match.
The Scottish giants Celtic were invited last summer, and the Glasgow Rangers were invited this summer.
In the first game, Millwall easily defeated his opponent at home, and the players who returned from vacation quickly recovered the game through training.
The second friendly match was also played at home, Aldridge invited the Ligue 1 champion Monaco to London as a guest last season.
The day before the game, Aldridge personally greeted Monaco coach Tijana at the door of the club. The latter, after Wenger, once again let Monaco win the Ligue 1 and became famous for a while.
In the new season, Monaco will also participate in the Champions League. Like Millwall, they are unfamiliar with the Champions League, so everyone should be more familiar with different styles of teams.
Tigana was very interested in Millwall who overturned Paris Saint-Germain last season. In the face of Aldrich's invitation, he agreed without hesitation.
Outside the club's door, Tigana looked up with interest to see the giant posters hanging on the main building.
"Millwall is really star-studded now."
He sighed heartily.
The poster is the background of the crazy lion team emblem, and there is a flame eruption effect rendering. The upper body photos of the five people of Larson, Nedved, Makelele, Southgate, and Lampard appear in the poster.
This is a strategy that football clubs have always advertised.
Basically, it will not display only one player on the promotional map, but will promote the club culture from many angles.
For example, among these five, Southgate and Lampard represent local power. Lampard also symbolizes youth, Makelele is a black man, Larson is a hot super forward, and Nedvide is a spiritual leader.
Aldrich invited Tigana to celebrate in his office. Tigana is only 42 years old. He is naturally a young man in the coaching industry. He coached the team a year earlier than Aldrich. The starting point is also high. The season reached a new height in his coaching career, and he took away the league runner-up by 12 points to win the championship.
The two were full of expectations for the future UEFA Champions League. They also tried to analyze the current situation of the various European teams. In the high-level talk, only some regrets that Fernandes, who watched the game together a year ago, was laid off by Tigana and Aldridge Too.
It is Paris Saint-Germain that Monaco is suppressing, and Millwall also made the defending champions of the Winners Cup defeat in the European War.
The next day, the Lion's Cave Stadium.
The stadium stands are full of seats, fans are enjoying the game with a relaxed attitude, and the TV stations are also rushing to broadcast this warm-up match between the Premier League champions and the Ligue 1 champions. They compare this to the two teams that will appear in the Champions League next season. Warm up the team.
Aldrich's attitude towards the warm-up match has always been very indifferent. Training and adjusting the state can't be said to test the team's strength, because the opponent may not follow you.
However, this kind of warm-up game will not work, and players must have a mental foreshadowing and mentality adjustment that is about to enter a tense and intense season.
The two teams played very open today. The Ligue 1 team has laid the Latin style as the mainstream since the era of Platini. Millwall is also a European style, and there is a trend of peaking and fainting. The team collided together, and if it wasn't forbidden, the scene would naturally be very exciting.
The two sides have come and gone, and the game was played with bamboo flowers, scoring goals one by one.
Aldrich was sitting on the coach seat in sportswear. From the dress, he could see his attitude, even talking and laughing with the coaches.
"Aldridge, opposite the young winger, let's pay for it! It feels more important than Van der Med in the new season."
Benitez said to Aldridge suddenly and seriously.
Aldridge knows who the other person is without looking at it.
Future King of Highbury: Henry!
Since his debut, Henry is still playing as a winger, but he has shown a very good quality.
Strictly speaking, Wenger did not help Henry much during the Monaco period, but after all, he discovered the other party’s excellent potential. Under Tigana, Henry gradually stood out, not only became the team’s main force, but also entered the national team. World Cup train.
Aldridge smiled bitterly: "I wanted to buy him three years ago, but people didn't sell it. Just a month ago, when I was in France, I specifically asked Tigana: Petit, you don't It was sold at three million pounds, Henry, I gave four million pounds, what? The other party refused."
Benitez glanced at Tigana on the coach seat next door, wondering: "Aren't you familiar with him? He sold the French national team's main midfielder back to Wenger so cheaply. Why? Can't open the back door for you? Four million pounds is not low, I think you can increase the price."
Aldridge shrugged and shook his head without saying anything.
Four million pounds is indeed not low for Henry, now 20 years old.
Henry and Ronaldo will be world-class strikers, but the 20-year-old Henry and the 20-year-old Ronaldo, both in terms of fame and ability, have a big gap, so Ronaldo can be worth 20 million pounds this summer, while Henry, Audrey Qi believes that the value will not exceed six million pounds.
It’s just that it’s not about money. It’s because Tigana doesn’t sell.
It's not that Aldridge has a bad relationship, but that the relationship is not deep enough, and Aldridge doesn't want to owe humanity.
Wenger's contacts in France can only be compared with Aldridge drinking wine with others.
Fernandes was neither stupid nor blind, but Anelka sent £500,000 to Wenger.
Petit is not an unknown soldier. From his debut, he has been a high-profile star in France. He has played for the national team since he was 19 years old. He is 27 years old this year. It is the golden age of the players. There is also the halo of the Ligue 1 championship last season. But Monaco sent people to Arsenal for less than three million pounds.
Even more exaggerated is Guy Lu, who not only promised to train Wenger as a rookie, he even went to Africa to build a football school after retirement, and helped Wenger to gather good players in Africa.
Therefore, Arsenal under Wenger has a clear French brand, and he can’t blame his special love for French players. The good goods in the transfer market are not cheap. Wenger, who has spent a lot of time and money, can get good players with high cost performance from France. Why bother to be a big injustice?
This is the energy of the industry's contacts. Aldrich was born, and he was neither highly respected nor player background able to weave a football network in his long career. He could only make step by step and make friends with the appetite coach He came to Japan and said that he might become a coach with a huge network of relationships when the quantitative change happened qualitatively.
When the warm-up match came to an end, the fans applauded the players of the two teams with satisfaction.
4:4.
Eight goals combined with back and forth attacks, the fans enjoyed a scoring feast.
As the footsteps of the new season are drawing nearer, the expectations that fans have accumulated in the summer have also begun to be released. The best proof is that all the warm-up games can be filled.
Aldrich chatted with Tigana for a while. He was more honest and pursued Henry twice. Even if he didn't get it, Wenger rejected him the first time and Tigana the second time.
After finishing this warm-up match, the next week they have no plans to play, just wait to practice the state with the community shield before the opening of the league.
However, Aldridge came across his head when he didn't expect unplanned things.
On the evening of the farewell of Monaco, Adam ran to his house with a serious face and solemnly told him: Ajax was angry over there!
In the summer, Van Gaal went to Barcelona to pursue his new career. This was a huge turbulent period for Ajax. After all, Van Gaal spent six years in Ajax and trained a large number of stars in the Ajax line.
Ajax was busy in the summer to deal with the departure of the meritorious coach, and his work on the youth team players signing professional contracts was slowed down. When Olson took office, he clarified his work and then when he went to review the youth team, he suddenly found that: Where did VanderMead's high hopes go?
Only then did they realize that Van der Meide not only did not sign, but also went directly to London, where he already had a team with his new teammates at Millwall.
In the case where the main players of the Ajax club have been taken away for free for two consecutive seasons, even the good seedlings of the youth team are now taken away for free, which makes them unbearable!
Can't bear it!
That's the basis of their survival!
Millwall was taken over there: come up with a solution, otherwise, I will go to UEFA and FIFA will sue you!
He heard this and Aldridge regretted it.
In terms of contract procedures, the contract between Van der Med and Ajax expired, and Millwall signed the contract with the other party afterwards. The time between the two is no problem.
But the mistake was wrong. When Aldridge went to Amsterdam to contact VanderMead, the apprenticeship contract between VanderMead and Ajax had not yet expired.
Although there are no other personal evidences or other evidences, from the time, Aldridge went to the Netherlands, and Van der Mede packed his luggage to London. I knew from the check of the immigration time that Van der Mede really came to London before the end of June.
At this time, the rules for international transfers have not been particularly detailed, especially FIFA and UEFA are more troublesome to deal with the impact of the post-Bosman rule, and there are not so detailed rules for the transfer of young players, especially 18 An international transfer ban for players under the age of 10 was also introduced ten years later.
But Ajax really wanted to make trouble, and it was not without reason. In the sense of reason, they are all the victims' side. If they can't even get a training fee, Millwall is really a robber in the public.
Aldridge sat opposite Adam at home. He closed his eyes and asked: "How does the other party want to solve? It should be the problem of money. Tell them that Millwall paid 300,000 pounds to compensate them."
Adam whispered: "The boss, although it's a matter of money, Ajax doesn't want to collect money directly."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"I guess, they don't want to make a big deal. If this matter is very well known, then other top European teams don't all go to them to entice young talents? They want to deal with it in a low-key manner, but the matter will not be announced. We also have to make compensation."
Aldrich scratched his head, and he couldn't think of a solution to such a thing.
The transactions between clubs and clubs have accounts, and cross-border transactions, once there is a financial review, if the explanation is unclear, it is a hidden danger.
Ajax didn't want to publicize it, Aldridge was happy, and he didn't want to damage Millwall's reputation.
"Wait a minute, I will ask the professionals."
In the football world, Audridge thinks that the most professional person is Andrew.
As expected, he called Andrew and put the matter briefly, and Andrew immediately gave him a trick.
After putting down the phone, Aldridge smiled and said to Adam: "Giving back to Ajax, we will go to Amsterdam to play a friendly match with Ajax. The tickets are all theirs. Not enough, promise to play again in the next two years, the conditions are the same."
When Adam heard it, he immediately understood.
According to the value of Millwall's Triple Crown, not everyone can be invited to play in a friendly match.
This is normal after a few years. The big clubs play friendly games, and all have clearly marked entrance fees.
