Chapter 247： Bidding in the sky, repaying the money on the ground

When Gao Shen came to the Naples headquarters office, De Laurentiis and Marino were already waiting for him in the conference room.

The two of them looked quite anxious, and when they saw Gao Shen knocking on the door to come in, they immediately found the backbone.

Before the arrival of Gao Shen, De Laurentiis was the undisputed boss of Naples, but after Gao Shen came, De Laurentiis' right to speak was seriously weakened in football affairs.

Especially after an excellent record last season.

"The latest news is that Arsenal have raised their offer to 10 million euros."

As soon as Gao Shen sat down, Marino reported the latest situation.

Napoli have rejected three offers from Arsenal but it looks like the Gunners are very determined.

"Wenger is determined to dig my corner." Gao Shen smiled bitterly. He didn't even know that he had such a deep hatred with Wenger.

Is it because he robbed him of a Champions League runner-up?

"You said just now that Gervinho called you?" De Laurentiis asked with concern.

Gao Shen nodded, "He told me that he wanted to leave the team and hoped I would let him go."

De Laurentiis' face changed when he heard it, and he scolded him directly, feeling that Gervinho was a bit of a coward.

The club has promised to give him a raise. Although it may not be as high as the treatment given by Arsenal, it is not like this, right?

"Actually, I understand him." Gao Shen said lightly.

De Laurentiis and Marino were a little surprised.

understand him?

Is this to let him go?

The two bosses looked at each other, both of which were somewhat elusive.

"He said he didn't like the Italian football environment and he wanted to go to Arsenal. I didn't say yes, but I said I would consider it."

De Laurentiis was still a little angry.

In the past year, due to the reasons of Gao Shen and Naples, coupled with the outstanding performance of Gervinho himself, he has been attacked by opponent fans and even racially discriminated. This is actually quite normal in Italy.

Just like Gao Shen, he has been warmly greeted by opponent fans in almost every game, and racial discrimination has been repeatedly banned. Even the Italian Football Association can only turn a blind eye to this.

Grasp? How to catch?

As for the penalty, I am afraid that the entire Italian team will be punished again, including Naples.

So, this kind of thing really can only be done by forbearance and tolerance,

If you can't bear it, it's impossible.

"Gao, what's your attitude now?" Marino asked with concern.

Gao Shen nodded and said, "Let him go!"

He had already figured it out on the plane back.

The twisted melon is not sweet, and Di Maria was used to replace Gervinho, which was also planned by Gao Shen early on.

Gervinho's strength is not bad, but his physical fitness is too poor to meet the advanced requirements.

He was one of our best players last season. ' Marino reminded.

"So," Gao Shen looked at the general manager and said resolutely, "Even if you want to sell it, you can't just sell it, otherwise, other teams will think we are running a supermarket, and they will all rush in to grab people. It was looted."

Although it is a joke to stare at the deep and grab people, it is not ruled out that some teams will do so much.

Only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent a thief?

At that time, those tentacles who are poaching directly talk to the players, and it is difficult to guarantee that the players will not be tempted.

"Instead of being stared at like this, it's better to be more direct. You can buy it and meet our asking price. As long as you have money, you are not afraid of not being able to buy good players. If two or three players are poached, Napoli will collapse. It's been a year in vain!"

In the end, Gao Shen has become very confident and determined.

"Well said!" De Laurentiis praised. "There is a price to pay for poaching!"

"What about the additional candidates?" Marino asked with concern.

If Gervinho is really sold, Naples will be left with two generals, Di Maria and Sanchez, as well as new arrivals Callejon and Mertens.

Gao Shen was also prepared for this.

"You immediately contact Villarreal in La Liga. They have a player named Antonio Valencia, a South American player from Ecuador. Wigan was on loan in the Premier League last season. At present, Wigan is negotiating with Villarreal. Rent, you go and buy him, it is estimated to be around 1.5 million euros.

Antonio Valencia, Manchester United do not laugh at the emperor.

I believe that fans familiar with Manchester United will not be unfamiliar with him, this is a controversial player.

First of all, everyone agrees with his attitude and feelings for Manchester United, but there is mixed praise for his ability.

If you just look at the time, it is not difficult to find that Ferguson actually brought him in as Cristiano Ronaldo's successor, and he is to make up for the role of President Ronaldo.

And what was the role of President Ronaldo at Manchester United at that time?

Scorer?

No, this is the result.

In the last two or three seasons at Manchester United, President Luo has made rapid progress because Ferguson has figured out a set of tactics that can maximize his advantages and at the same time integrate Manchester United.

So in those years, Manchester United's performance was exceptional, and the team was adjusted to the optimal solution.

That is, through the pulling and movement of the players in the frontcourt, he created a neutral position for President Luo to slant into the penalty area, and then exerted President Luo's amazing explosive power and speed, directly inserting into the key position of the penalty area to create a threat.

Valencia's speed is also very amazing.

From 2006, he led Ecuador to the World Cup, and his performance in Wigan, in fact, he is not a simple wing player,

He is also good at hitting the ribs with the ball, but his biggest weakness is that his left foot is almost useless.

Zhan Jun, a famous commentator in China, once commented on the Premier League: Everyone in Europe knows that Valencia is going to the right, and everyone in Europe knows that he will not cut inside, but will only pass from the bottom, but it is Couldn't stop him.

This kind of evaluation has also appeared on another one-legged madman, that is Robben.

I had heard such a statement before the high-level crossing: if Valencia hadn't broken his leg, he would be one of the top wingers in Europe.

That's the level of Antonio Valencia!

And the player is still depressed, waiting for an opportunity.

Both De Laurentiis and Marino were actually used to this sophisticated style of doing things, and they were even used to his amazing words, but they were still surprised at this moment.

A player he casually mentioned, a player who couldn't play in Villarreal, was loaned to Wigan and couldn't play the main force, can he replace Gervinho?

Facing the concerns of the German and Marino, Gao smiled and asked: "How much did Gervinho cost us?"

De Laurentiis looked at Marino, who was in charge, and he knew best.

"600,000 euros." Marino doesn't remember exactly, it's been a year.

"Look, Valencia, I expect to spend twice the price, can you replace it?" Gao Shen asked cheerfully.

Delao and Marino understand that the higher the price of the players introduced by the head coach, the stronger the strength. Is that what it means?

But soon, De Laurentiis couldn't laugh anymore.

why?

Because Arsenal are now offering 20-year-old Gervinho 10 million euros, that is to say, if the Ivorian transfer is successful,

If the price difference reaches more than 10 million euros, it will be distributed to Gaoshen 2 million euros.

Heartache!

This should have belonged to the club.

He really wanted to beat himself to death, why was he so funny in the first place, what punishment mechanism did he want to make for him?

The result is good, not to mention the penalty, but a huge loss.

Naples provides a platform, pays salaries and bonuses to players, and provides various training facilities and members of the coaching staff, so that they can enjoy 80% of the price difference, and Gao Shen is like an emperor choosing a concubine. become.

He is so sad!

But his sadness could only be buried deep in his heart, because he knew that Gao Shen was helping him and Naples make money, even big money.

It's just that the thought of splitting 20% ​​of the profits made him heartbroken!

Thinking about it, De Laurentiis stared at Marino with eyes like knives.

But Marino hasn't noticed the difference yet, and is still chatting with Gao Shenre about how to drive up Wenger's offer.

Gao Shen discussed the countermeasures with the two bosses.

He has already reached an agreement with Gervinho, no matter whether he agrees with Gervinho to leave, the players cannot cooperate with the other club to put pressure on them,

The Ivorians also agreed.

So, Gao Shen, together with De Laurentiis and Marino, discussed a price hike strategy.

The next day, De Laurentiis revealed in an interview with the local media in Naples that he did receive an offer from a Premier League team, but it was seriously insincere, and Naples had rejected it.

"Chelsea introduced Malouda from Lyon in Ligue 1. UU Reading paid 20 million euros. I don't think Gervinho is worse than Malouda!"

As soon as these words came out, the Italian football world was surprised.

Malouda is worth 20 million euros. Gervinho is no worse than Malouda. Is it also worth 20 million euros?

At the same time, De Laurentiis opened his mouth wide and revealed that at least three Serie A giants were asking for Gervinho.

"I won't tell you which three teams are, but what I can say for sure is that they are all interested in Gervinho and are actively approaching us."

After that, De Laurentiis stated that he had revealed too much, he couldn't say any more, and he wanted to keep it a secret.

This made Gao Shen who saw the report laughed and laughed.

Do you think that if you don't say your name, people won't know you're ordering Inter Milan, Roma and Juventus?

Isn't this what the media reported before?

All three have indeed had contact with Naples, but they all feel that Naples' asking price is too high.

Serie A now does not have such a high spending power.

Juventus only spent more than 10 million euros to introduce Iaquinta from Udinese. How could they be willing to pay more than 10 million euros for Gervinho?

The media was also very knowledgeable and followed up immediately, and dug up a lot of so-called insider information, all of which were the team's attention to the news of Gervinho. Who made the Ivorian winger really perform well?

He is now not only the captain of the national Olympic team that participated in the 2008 Olympic Games in Cote d'Ivoire, but also a new international player who has appeared on the national team for a long time, and has played many times.

After Gao Shen and Naples made high bids, they waited for Wenger and Arsenal to return the money.
