After Tang Feng and Meng Qi decided on the main candidates for the striker and central defender, the two began to operate the transfer!

In terms of striker, Tang Feng first issued a low-key offer to Atletico Madrid club about Torres.

After all, Adriano has not yet confirmed the transfer.

Tang Feng did not let go. If he went to buy the striker openly now, wouldn’t it mean to tell others that he planned to sell Adriano?

Then how could he "ask for a sky-high price" for Inter Milan and other competitive clubs?

Tang Feng still attaches great importance to Torres.

For this reason, he also privately met with Xiao Hill, who is gradually taking over the old Hill Industry and becoming the new owner of the team.

The communication between the two young people was very pleasant, but when talking about Torres, Xiao Hill's attitude was very firm!

He will not sell the team's future flag!

Tang Feng obviously didn't give up so easily, so he also reminded Hill that after Atletico Madrid returned to La Liga, what they should do was to introduce more powerful players to keep the team in La Liga. He also hinted that several powerful substitutes in the team could be used as the top spot in this deal.

Tang Feng's proposal is obviously very tempting. You should know that all the substitutes of Betis are very distinctive players. In general mid- and lower-level teams or newly promoted teams, they can serve as the main force or even the core.

However, Hill still said that instead of trading Torres out, they would rather pay cash to buy players, even if the current economic situation of their club is not ideal.

Tang Feng could feel that when Xiao Hill rejected his proposal, he was helpless but determined!

Obviously, he was also very moved by Tang Feng's proposal. But he also knew very well that if he sold the Golden Boy Torres, who was loved by fans, as soon as he took office, he would completely lose the hearts of the people!

This also made Tang Feng realize that it seems impossible to poach Torres. At least, he cannot do this at this stage!

The same is true!

As one of the most outstanding strikers in Spain recently, Torres, who has outstanding skills and a very handsome appearance, has always been called "Raul's successor".

Therefore, not only some of Spain's giant teams, but even players from other leagues have expressed strong interest in Torres.

But Atletico Madrid refused one by one, which also reflects Hill's determination to rebuild the team around Torres!

Although he failed to negotiate Torres' transfer issue, Tang Feng established a good relationship with Xiao Hill. He believes that in the coming season, there will be more opportunities for cooperation between these two young people.

...

After Torres was rejected, Tang Feng sent Ajax an application to buy Ibrahimovic through the club.

Compared to Atletico Madrid, Tang Feng is more confident to impress Ajax.

The reason is very simple. Since the Boseman Act was passed, the Eredivisie has gradually evolved into a star processing factory. They train themselves, or dig up some not-famous newcomers from all over the world, and sell them after they make a name for themselves. This has become the way of operating the Dutch team.

In other words, as long as the Betis team is priced at the right price, there is no reason for Ajax not to sell it.

However, Ibrahimovic was dug from Malmö last season by Ajax, who spent 7.8 million euros to Sweden's highest transfer value.

Although Ibrahimovic performed very poorly in the Eredivisie last season, Ajax will definitely make money.

Therefore, Tang Feng also signaled the club to send a quotation of 10 million euros!

In one season, it increased by more than two million euros. This should be a very cost-effective deal, right?

Unfortunately, Tang Feng obviously underestimated Ajax's optimism for this Swedish striker.

Almost as soon as the offer was reported, Ajax immediately rejected it.

Their reason is that Ibrahimovic is their leading shooter in the next few seasons, so they have no idea of ​​selling Ibrahimovic!

Just as Tang Feng was preparing to raise his offer, Ibrahimovic, who was on vacation in the Maldives, also expressed his attitude.

He said in an interview: "I know some teams are interested in me now, but I am having a great time in Ajax. I don't plan to leave the Netherlands for the time being. Moreover, when I decide to leave Ajax, I must join a giant team! Because Ajax is a great giant!"

The outside world did not know that Betis was asking for Ibrahimovic to buy Ibrahimovic, so maybe he didn't quite understand what he meant. But after seeing this news, Tang Feng understood that Ibrahimovic was rejecting Betis!

His meaning is very obvious. First, he just came to the Netherlands and did not plan to transfer immediately. Second, in his opinion, Ajax has at least been a giant team, and although Betis just won the La Liga championship, he is definitely not a giant team. Therefore, instead of transferring Betis, it is better to stay in Ajax!

This sentence made Tang Feng very angry!

Before he traveled through time, he knew that Ibrahimovic was a very proud person. However, in Tang Feng's view at that time, Ibrahimovic did have the capital to be proud.

But when this Swedish pride was shown to him, Tang Feng still couldn't accept it!

This is the second time Tang Feng remembered that he was directly rejected by the player.

The first time I rejected Tang Feng was Etoo!

At that time, Betis was still in the Spanish Second Division. When Tang Feng was looking to buy Etoo, Etoo said that it would be better to stay in Mallorca than to go to the Spanish Second Division!

But two years have passed, and it turns out that Betis is obviously a better choice than Mallorca!

Tang Feng also made up his mind to prove to Ibrahimovic that he did not choose Betis, it was not Betis' regret, but his regret!

...

The three forward candidates and two failed to purchase, which saved Tang Feng from the pain of choice.

He has decided to introduce Diego Milito!

He also believed that after being released by the wealthy family again and again, Diego Milito had already calmed down.

He also has confidence that with Betis' performance last season, Milito no longer has reason to reject Betis!

It was precisely because of this confidence that Tang Feng was not in a hurry to buy Milito, but focused on acquiring the defender.

...

The west coast of Italy, the port of the Rigurian Sea, the first port city of the Tyrrhenian Sea, Livorno!

Tang Feng and Mengqi appeared together in this ancient city that was considered the "most ideal town" during the Renaissance!

The two did not have the intention of watching the ancient buildings in the city, but took a taxi straight to the Livorno Club.

Livorno is a typical small team in the Italian league. Their team has won four championships in history, two of which were Serie B, and two of which were Serie C and Serie D.

Yes, their record is so pitiful.

In fact, they only worked hard to return to Serie B this summer.

Therefore, when they learned that the Betis coach who had just won the La Liga and UEFA Cup championships actually visited their club in person, they were really panicked.

In order to show respect to the distinguished guest Shenqi Tang, their club chairman Spineli also personally welcomed Tang Feng.

"Hello, Mr. Spineri. To be honest, we are here to introduce a player from your club!" After a taste of unnutrition, Tang Feng also explained his purpose.

In fact, Spineli also thought of this before. After all, the head coach of a double-winning team like Swordsman Tang must be very busy. If he hadn't fallen in love with the players in the team, how could he have traveled thousands of miles to the countryside of Livorno?

"I wonder which player from our club has Mr. Tang fallen in love with?" Spineli asked directly without being pretentious.

A small club has the awareness of a small club, and Spineli himself is not a rich man. He also needs to make profits when running this small club. Selling players is the easiest and most direct way.

"Giogio Chiellini!" Tang Feng also reported Chiellini's name very simply.

"Giogio? Oh, sorry, Mr. Magical Mr. Tang. He is the star of hope for our team and is also the banner of our team's future! We will not sell him. Can you imagine AC Milan selling Maldini?" Spineri said with an exaggerated look on his face.

Seeing Spinelli's performance, Tang Feng almost couldn't help laughing.

Damn, this old guy's acting skills are so outstanding!

Tang Feng has seen Chiellini's appearance record in the last two seasons. He joined the first team in 2000, but his total number of appearances in the past two seasons is less than ten times. For such a player, he would be embarrassed to compare him to Maldini?

"Oh, Mr. Spineri. We are very sincere. I believe you also know that our veteran Gianni retired this summer, so we need a substitute left back! And we also found that although Giagio has various shortcomings, he is indeed a talented player. It meets our requirements, so..." Tang Feng did not expose Spineri, but said lightly.

From Tang Feng's performance, Spineli obviously knew that his acting skills had not deceived Tang Feng. So, he also squeezed out a hint of dry laughter and said, "This, although Giogio is very important to us. But we just returned to the second division, and the team needs to supplement our strength, and our club is a bit tight in economics. So, if the price is right, we can also bear the pain of selling Giogio. After all, our club also needs to survive in the second division."

Looking at Spineli's completely different performances, Tang Feng immediately wondered if this guy had learned the face-changing in Sichuan opera?

"Two million euros!" Tang Feng shrugged and quoted a price!

"What a joke, Giogio is an Italian superstar. The outside world calls him Martini II! Two million euros is too low, right?" Spinelli said in surprise.

"For a seventeen-year-old player, this price is not low. Moreover, we have been paying attention to Italian football, but no one has heard of him as Maldini II..." Monkey said on the side.

Hearing Monchi's words, Spineli was a little embarrassed. The nickname "Maldini II" was indeed given by him. However, he also confirmed that two million euros were slightly lower. So he continued to fight for it: "But since you came here specially, it proves that you have seen his potential. Moreover, two million euros are not very helpful to us, so we might as well keep Giogio."

"Three million euros!" Tang Feng raised his price.

When Spinelli heard that Tang Feng had increased by another million without hesitation, he was also a little moved. Italy's economy has been in a downturn in recent years. It is not a small amount for a seventeen-year-old young man to sell three million euros.

Of course, as a club chairman, he is still good at hiding his mood. He pretended to be hesitant and said, "This price is still a little lower!"

"Three million and five million euros! This is the final offer!" Tang Feng raised another 500,000 euros in one breath, and then said that this is the final offer.

Listening to Tang Feng's firm tone, Spineli also knew that this should be Tang Feng's psychological price, and he was already very satisfied with it, so he immediately replied: "The deal is done! However, you still have to reach an agreement with the players themselves, after all, they may not be willing to go to a foreign country!"
