If that corrupt criminal is really this fat, then this time Fica Bank should not be disappointing.
It shouldn’t be a problem to get a greedy chairman with enough money …
In Azerado, Zhuang Ge and others were led into the reception room arranged in advance.
"President Corleone, I have heard about your purpose," Azerado said, sitting on the sofa with a steaming cup of coffee. "It is acceptable for Rui to move to our club, and Rui people are willing to develop on a bigger platform … Now the question is how much you are prepared to pay for the transfer of our team’s midfield core."
Rui Costa, a representative of the Portuguese golden generation, and a generation of midfield masters are the goals of Zhuang Ge’s trip.
Historical Costa should have joined Fiorentina last season, but because Zhuang Ge changed effenberg’s fate, Florence, who was promoted at that time, didn’t have enough money to say that Costa people accepted the position of rotating players, which led to the Portuguese midfielder’s failure to join Viola in the summer of 1994 as in history, but a miracle appeared, and other teams seemed to see this equally famous Portuguese midfielder, which made Costa stay in Ficado for another year.
Now Florence, the double champion of Serie A and the European Cup Winners’ Cup, has proved that the team has won the honor and is eager to play its talents on a bigger stage. Costa should not mind a rotation main force in the championship temptation …
Now Zhuang Gegong is enough to make Azerado let go. After all, the meaning in Azerado’s words just now is very simple. We don’t mind selling Costa, but you should also show enough "sincerity"
Chapter 153 Portugal (in)
"The transfer amount in Costa refers to the transfer amount to Barcelona madeira filipe in January this year. We in Florence are willing to pay the same amount to Costa for a one-time payment of $40,000."
"Ha ha, Chairman Corleone, you are really joking. You want to take away our Fica core star for just $40,000?" Azeradopi said with a smile, "We are all engaged in football, and there is no need to go around in circles. You all know that Figo’s transfer at that time did not reflect his real worth. If Figo had not been banned from landing in Serie A by your football association, he would have joined Serie A at more than double the price."
"What does Chairman Azerado mean?"
"Ten thousand dollars one-time payment is absolutely fair." Azerado narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhuang Ge, laughing like an old fox.
"It’s too expensive, up to $50,000." Zhuang Ge was stared at by Azerado’s smiling eyes and felt cold.
"We can’t agree to this offer! Chairman Corleone, don’t forget that when paulo sousa joined Juventus last year, his net worth reached $10,000! " Azerado said with some anger and some pride, "We are Fica!"
Azerado is indeed proud. After all, before the introduction of the Bosman Act, the strength of European league teams was relatively average. Even small European giants did not despise it. Did you not see that Real Madrid was blocked from the Champions League final by these so-called "small country teams" for more than three years?
Speaking of Fica, the most impressive thing is that it has won the Portuguese league championship the most times, and it is also the team that won the Champions League the most times in Portugal. Before the rise of Porto, Fica was in Portugal just like Real Madrid was in Spain.
Besides, the most impressive thing about Fica is the famous "guttmann curse".
In 1962, after the team defeated Stefano, Puskas and other superstars in the Champions League final and led Real Madrid to complete the Champions League two times in a row, guttmann, the head coach of Fica, asked the board of directors for a salary increase, but was rejected by the board. Before the Hungarian coach announced his resignation, he told the famous "guttmann curse" and "Fica will never win the European championship again from now on."
No one expected that guttmann’s angry words would really be lost. Since then, Fica has reached the UEFA Cup final five times and the UEFA Cup final once.
In the 1960s, Fica entered the Champions League finals five times and became AC Milan for three times, creating a "big international era". Inter Milan and Manchester United re-emerged after a year in Munich. The latest time is the 1999 Champions League final. Although Ficacci superstar Eusébio went to guttmann’s grave to pray before the game (the Hungarian died in 1991), the Portuguese team still lost to the Rossoneri in the final.
In 1993, Fica reached the UEFA Cup final and finally lost to the Belgian team Ander Laichter.
If it’s really a curse, how powerful the old man guttmann was at that time …
Tragic Fica Zhuang Ge can comment on this.
"How about President Corleone? Ten thousand dollars in one lump sum, you can go and Costa to discuss the treatment. "
Indeed as expected to deal with the money-obsessed chairman or money, Zhuang Ge sighed in his mind.
"All right, then $10,000 in one lump sum."
Azerado agreed to his asking price as soon as he heard Zhuang Ge. He immediately changed his expression and said with an eyebrow eye smile, "Deal! Chairman Corleone, now you can talk to Rui and him about personal treatment. This is the way to contact him. "
Don’t you tell the players about any transfer negotiations? Azerado, sooner or later, you will despise the players and suffer. Zhuang Ge took over the Costa United way from Azerado with a smile in his heart.
"hello? Hello, are you Mr Rui Costa? I’m Antonio Corleone, president of Florence Club. We just got the permission from Fica Club and now we’re going to discuss a contract with you … "
"You’re on vacation in Funchal now, right? Then let’s meet at the Funchal Palace Hotel tomorrow. "
……
The next morning, Zhuang Ge and Karin flew from Reese to Funchal, the capital of Madeira Autonomous Prefecture in Portugal.
Sitting in the lobby of the most luxurious palace hotel in Funchal, Zhuang Ge is waiting for Rui Costa while drinking freshly squeezed juice.
If Baggio is a melancholy beauty, Bati is a passionate beauty and Zida is a wild beauty, then Rui is a classical beauty in Zhuang Ge’s memory!
Compared with other star players who are full of personality, he is indifferent to chewing gum and strolling around the pitch. The socks are always worn in the shin guards …
Rui Costa’s running is an excellent rhythm, such as leaping on the grassland, the deer is harmonious and light-footed. He doesn’t like to race with his opponent like another famous teammate Figo in the national team, and he doesn’t like to play with flashy bicycles like Denilson in Brazil. His mastery of the stadium is perfect. Observing the subtle changes of the stadium at all times helps the opponent to send a fatal ball in an instant.
He has never been gorgeous. His goal is to find a fatal blow on the court.
In Zhuang Ge’s memory, Rui Costa’s most classic assist was in the 23 rd season AC Milan-Real Madrid match. In the fourth minute of the match, the Portuguese shocked the world and tore Real Madrid’s defensive assist teammate Andriy Shevchenko to score the only goal in the game.
This is Costa’s opportunity to find and seize every fatal blow on the spot.
This is a talented midfielder in Rui Costa and an artistic midfielder.
From the technical and tactical point of view, the introduction of Costa can also bring a tactical change to the team, because there is still a player in Florence who lives on the offside line-Inzaghi.
Think about it. When Inzaghi often runs and Rui Costa plays beautifully together, a famous super killer who steals points, a wonderful midfielder Inzaghi and Rui Costa make people realize what brings out the best in each other.
Costa-djorkaeff-Inzaghi (Baggio)-Batty’s offensive combination is enough to destroy a team’s defense!
Chapter 154 Portugal ()
"Karin, try a piece of hairtail. Madeira is the only place in Europe that produces hairtail."
Just as Zhuang Ge and Karin were enjoying the fresh hairtail from Madeira Island in the Palace Hotel, Rui Costa took his agent into the hotel lobby and then came over to Zhuang Ge’s table.
After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides sat down again to negotiate Costa’s treatment exhibition in Florence.
The negotiation went smoothly beyond Zhuang Ge’s expectation, and Costa signed the contract for five years with a weekly salary of 10,000 US dollars. Costa agreed to the contract without bargaining with Zhuang Ge or attaching conditions, and then motioned his agent to check the specific details of the contract. If there is no problem with the contract, it will take a little while for the Portuguese to sign his name in the contract.
"Rui, why did you promise us an offer from Florence so soon?" When Costa signed his name in the contract, Zhuang Ge finally expressed doubts in his heart.
"Mr Corleone should not call you boss now," Costa said with a bitter smile. "You, the president of the Serie A champion team, can introduce me, a young player who is not very famous, to Madeira Island in person, and President Azerado didn’t call me until after he sold me and told me that you were sold to Florence. He didn’t send anyone to call me before!"
Zhuang Ge nodded his head and said that he understood Rui Costa’s mood. Although the players’ status was very low before the appearance of Bosman Act and there was nothing to say during the transfer, the club should also inform the parties during the transfer exercise, which is the minimum respect for the players. Otherwise, even if Fica cultivated the stars herself, I am afraid it will be difficult to remember the mother team after becoming famous.
It is no wonder that after the Bosman Act, among the three giants of Portuguese unification, Ficca slipped the fastest, and it was buried at this time …
……
Madeira Islands is located in the southwest of Portugal, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, 69 kilometers away from the European continent. When the Portuguese settled on the island in 142, it has become a quite famous tourist city in Europe today.
Therefore, Portuguese Rui Costa naturally asked the host to invite his boss to visit Madeira Island.
"Ha cheers! It’s a wonderful thing to drink such refreshing wine in the grape country … "The singer Zhuang said with a smile holding a glass of wine.
At night, the beach village songs, Karin, Costa and others get together to enjoy the local Portuguese food-the wine is brewed locally in Porto and then shipped directly. Although Madeira also produces fine wine locally, according to the description of Costa people, Madeira wine can only be regarded as real wine if it is stored in wooden barrels for less than two years and in bottles for two years. Nowadays, many wines sold in the market are not aged blended wines, so it is better to drink freshly brewed Porto wine.
"Boss, we don’t only have fine wine in Portugal, but also Madeira’s special kebabs are laurel branches strung together. Boss, try it."
"Is it at least one meter long?" Zhuang song looked at Costa’s kebab and got a fright.
"Ha ha boss you haven’t tried before? Porto sweet wine with this kebab is simply human! "
"Are you? Then I must try one. "
Before you know it, the moon has hung high in the middle of the night, and Costa and Zhuang Ge and others are drinking happily, and the topic is no longer as restrained as it was just now, and the topic is gradually turning to their common hobby-football.
"Antonio, although Portugal can’t catch up with other EU countries in economy, the Portuguese will never lose to a European power in football!" Half-drunk Costa said.
"Yes, yes, Rui Portugal’s golden generation is really good, with first-class technology and tacit cooperation … but your national team now has a very big shortcoming."
"Er … can there be shortcomings?" Costa had a hiccup and some dissatisfaction.
"Portugal has no striker." Zhuang Ge said vaguely, holding the bottle and sleeping in the past, but his words made Costa lost in thought.
