Chapter 80: Real Madrid and Barcelona are getting restless
Catalonia, inside the Barcelona club.
Barcelona president Rosell hung up the phone with a smile on his face, but the next second, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
Damn Guardiola! Damn Lin Quan! Rosell cursed in his heart, then forced himself to calm down.
The person he just called was Berlusconi, the chairman of Serie A giant AC Milan. The other party took a fancy to Lin Quan, who performed well in the Bundesliga and the national team, and asked if he could sell Lin Quan to AC Milan. They were willing to pay a transfer fee of 45 million euros to compensate Barcelona! Berlusconi rarely intervened in AC Milan's recruitment issues. These matters were handled by his old partner Galliani.
But this time the other party came out in person. On the surface, it was to show respect to him as the president of Barcelona, but in fact, the other party was extremely eager to take Lin Quan away.
The winter break hasn't even arrived yet, but the opponent is already so impatient.
Even if Russell was a basketball illiterate, he knew that this young man on his team was completely famous.
However, Barcelona cannot earn this transfer fee even if it wants to!
They had not yet completed the contract extension with Lin Quan, and there was only half a year left on the contract. No one would be stupid enough to pay a large transfer fee for a half-year contract! As long as someone leaked the contents of the contract, they would be empty-handed and would not make a penny.
Even if someone is willing to pay for the purchase, they will probably just pay a penalty of 5 million to terminate the contract, and they won’t be given a penny more.
No one would be stupid enough to give them 40 million euros for nothing!
Moreover, if they want to sell a player, they need to get the player’s consent. If Lin Quan does not agree, they will not be able to sell the player at all.
By then, let alone 450 million euros, even if it was 450 million euros, they would just be able to watch.
When he thought of this, Russell became very angry.
Damn brat, why doesn’t he want to renew his contract with Barcelona?
As long as he renews his contract with Barcelona, the initiative will be in the hands of Barcelona, and Barcelona will have the initiative to decide how to deal with him.
But now, Barcelona is in a completely passive and disadvantageous position.
If the other party refuses to renew the contract, it means they can't do anything.
It's like guarding a mine but having no way to develop and utilize it.
This must have been secretly instigated by that guy Guardiola. He wants to go against me in every way!
Rosell blamed the problem on Lin Quan's adoptive father Guardiola, without realizing that it was a problem he had caused himself.
At the same time, in a restaurant in Catalonia, the president of Real Madrid met the person he wanted to meet.
"This is what you wanted. Don't forget what you promised me!"
"Don't worry, Luis, as long as you resign from Barcelona, the Celta coach position is always ready for you."
Celta is Real Madrid's younger brother, and the relationship between the two clubs is very close. Real Madrid has a huge influence on Celta, and Celta's current head coach position is vacant. Florentino's promise does not seem to be empty talk.
Enrique nodded and handed the thing to the other party.
The old man casually opened the documents brought by the other party, although he tried hard to pretend to be calm.
But after seeing a certain piece of content, his hands trembling with excitement betrayed his inner feelings.
However, Enrique on the opposite side did not notice this. At this moment, he felt guilty like a thief and looked around nervously, afraid of being discovered.
Fortunately, the location of this restaurant is very secretive, and Florentino was very careful to book the whole place in advance, so no one noticed them.
After reading the entire information, Florentino smiled: Rosell, Rosell, how could you be so careless! Such a treasure in the youth team did not renew the contract with the other party, but wanted to expel him.
Now, you are out of control, right? If you don't want it, I won't be polite!
He had a hunch that if he could really bring Lin Quan back to the Bernabeu from Camp Nou, the sensation and impact caused by this transfer would probably be greater than the impact when he poached Figo from Barcelona!
After defeating Belarus, the Spanish national team flew back to Spain from Eastern Europe without stopping to prepare for the upcoming group match against France.
The French team has a very strong forward line. Ribery, Giroud and Benzema are all main forwards or wingers of top teams.
However, their midfield strength is a level weaker than that of the Spanish national team. In the quarter-finals of the European Cup four months ago, Spain defeated France 2-0 and eliminated it.
In the historical data of the two teams' confrontations, Spain has the upper hand with 14 wins, 10 losses and 7 draws.
In the past decade, Spain only lost to France in the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals. Since then, the two teams have met three times and Spain has remained undefeated.
Although they have the upper hand on paper, historical head-to-head data is in their favor.
However, the Spanish people still did not dare to be careless. Bosque and his assistants carefully studied the characteristics of the opponents and made targeted deployments.
The French team is characterized by being black, rough and tough. There is a high proportion of black people among their players. These players have good physical fitness, are fast and have good physical fitness.
The disadvantages are lack of flexibility and creativity.
Since Zidane retired, the French team has never had a midfield maestro that impresses everyone.
Look at the French team's midfield: Allou Diarra (Marseille), Matuidi (Paris Saint-Germain), M'Vila (Rennes), Martin (Sochaux), Cabaye (Newcastle), Malouda (Chelsea), Nasri (Manchester City).
Except for Nasri, all of them are a bunch of rough guys, all of them are engineering-type players.
If they are asked to try some fancy moves, they will definitely not be able to do it, so the French team relied on the speed of counterattacks and the impact to win.
But you know what, Spain is quite afraid of this kind of dark, rough and tough midfield.
The opponent has no skills, but has strong impact and wide interception range! Just like Pepe, the monk of Real Madrid, anyone would be scared if they met three or four of them.
"Don't give the opponent a chance to foul. Pass the ball, add a pass, and don't stick to the ball too much. The French team has several fast forwards. It is very dangerous to be intercepted by them and counterattack. Do you understand?"
Bosque is not called a famous coach for nothing. He knows the strengths and weaknesses of his team very well, as well as the characteristics of his opponents.
So I decided to play to my strengths and avoid my weaknesses, and use ball control tactics and passing and cutting tactics to defeat the strong enemy.
In addition, taking advantage of the opponent's strong defense and prone to fouls, Bosque also increased the practice of set-piece tactics.
There are many free kick masters in the Spanish team, and Lin Quan had no intention of joining in the fun.

As a result, Iniesta wanted to compete with him in footwork, so Lin Quan had to show off his skills.
"How about it?"
Xavi, Fabregas, Silva and others stood by and commented on the two players' free kick techniques.
"Lin's free kicks are more varied, Xavi's are more imaginative."
Fabregas watched for a while and affirmed the strength of the two.
Silva nodded in agreement.
Harvey said:
"I'm asking you, did you think of anything when you saw Lin's free kick?"
What did you think of? The two looked at each other, and finally Fabregas asked tentatively:
"You mean, Messi?"
"Yes, don't you think the way he takes free kicks is very similar to Messi?"
The two men heard Harvey's words and observed carefully for a while.
David Silva has never been teammates with Messi and doesn't quite understand Messi's style, so he didn't comment.
Fabregas knows Messi's footwork very well. After watching carefully for a while , he nodded and said, "It's true. Now that you put it that way, I feel that not only his free kicks are like Messi's, but also his playing style on the field is also like Messi's."
Xavi exclaimed: "When I see him, I always feel like I'm seeing a young version of Messi. The styles of these two are so similar!"
Just when Lin Quan and Iniesta were having a really good time, Bosque appeared on the sidelines and called out to Lin Quan: "Lin, come here!"
Lin Quan ran over in confusion: "Coach, are you looking for me?"
Bosque nodded and said, "I've watched your games in the Bundesliga. You've taken several penalties in Werder Bremen. Are you the team's top penalty taker?"
Lin Quan shook his head: "No, but the coaching staff will let me take the penalty kicks I created."
"Have you ever missed a penalty so far?"
"No, all the penalties so far have been scored!"
"So do you want to be the first penalty taker of the national team?"
Lin Quan was a little surprised, and he looked at Bosque seriously.
The old coach's expression was calm and serious, and he didn't mean to be joking.
"Isn't this a bit bad?"
Lin Quan has just joined the team, and it may be difficult to convince everyone to let him be the first penalty taker.
Bosque glanced at him and said:
"Do you know when the European Golden Boy Award is given?"
