Andre Curry is a veteran scout for Barcelona, and he specializes in exploring the Brazilian South American market. Many talented Brazilian players were recommended to the Barcelona dynasty by Andre Curry.
For example, Neymar.
After 2010, it was the era of Messi and Ronaldo, but there were also many superstars who emerged in the same era, such as Neymar.
Neymar has had a dream since he was a child, which is to join Real Madrid and play for Real Madrid.
However, it was because of Andre Curry that Neymar joined Barcelona in 2013.
In fact, Gu Ran wanted to sign Maer earlier than Barcelona and Real Madrid, but many players are ambitious. After becoming famous, they only want to step onto a bigger stage, so they would not take the invitation from a small club in the second-tier league like Southampton seriously.
It is also because of this that Gu Ran will eventually leave Southampton and go to a top club.
Only top clubs can achieve a brilliant career.
Even if Gu Ran is the big boss behind Southampton, even if Gu Ran can support Southampton's promotion to the Premier League by renting and buying the yet-to-be-famous Mavericks, Southampton is not a wealthy club.
After this season, sending Southampton to the Premier League, defending the League Cup and FA Cup titles, and then winning the Europa League, it would be perfect.
So, when Gu Ran knew that the person in front of him was a scout from Barcelona, he also understood the other party's intention.
Barcelona wants to contact him and ask about his minimum transfer price before the end of the summer transfer period.
Gu Ran then smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Curry, but I can't say I'm glad to see you, because it's not right for us to meet and contact like this."
Andre Curry grinned and said, "Yes, Mr. Gu Ran, but I really can't stand my love and desire for you. I think players like you are born for the rich and powerful! Everyone in the world knows that the best club in the world is Barcelona, so you should come to Barcelona."
It's quite direct.
If he had not been reborn, Gu Ran might have been very excited not knowing the mess Barcelona is in in the post-Messi era.
However, as a reborn person, and after having a very unique insight into football after his rebirth, Gu Ran was not impressed by Barcelona's passing and controlling style of play.
The tactical requirements of the passing and controlling flow are like a sophisticated machine. Everyone has to stand in an almost anchored position and needs to move with the team. There is only one person in the entire team who has the freedom, and that is Messi.
Messi has obtained the greatest resource of Barcelona, this precision instrument. Although Messi is very strong himself, with the addition of Barcelona, Messi will be even stronger.
Although Messi often passes the ball to his teammates and concedes penalties, in fact, the fact that he can deliberately pass the ball to concede penalties just goes to show that Messi occupies the vast majority of Barcelona's resources.
The management style of Real Madrid is to always buy only top stars and never let a top star lead the club by the nose.
In Real Madrid, Ronaldo is so strong, but he also faces competitive pressure from Bale. In Barcelona, Messi almost walks sideways. Barcelona fans love Messi, but at the same time Messi also drains Barcelona's resources, resulting in Barcelona being very strong when Messi is at his peak, but once Messi gets old, or Barcelona has no money to raise Messi and Messi's friends, the entire club will be in collapse.
If, if Gu Ran chooses to transfer to Barcelona and become teammates with Messi, then he will most likely have to hand over all resources to Messi. When Messi is in a good mood, or when Gu Ran finally breaks into Messi's circle of friends and becomes Messi's younger brother, Messi will be like a good man and generously pass the ball to Gu Ran, or give him a penalty kick.
From a football perspective, Messi is indeed very good. However, Gu Ran has already been reborn, so why should he still rely on others?
Messi is not Maradona.
Messi is not even Ronaldo.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Gu Ran never thought about going to the currently prosperous Barcelona to be teammates with Messi and devoting all his resources to Messi.
Facing Andre Curry's invitation, Gu Ran just smiled faintly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Curry, you should contact my agent Mendes for the transfer, not me."
Andre Curry said quickly: "Mr. Gu Ran, Mr. Mendes will not see me, because Mr. Mendes has a close relationship with Real Madrid, and his top star Cristiano Ronaldo is the star player of Real Madrid. So, I can only meet you in this way - I brought the sincerity of the Barcelona Club. As long as Mr. Gu Ran is willing to join Barcelona, all conditions can be discussed. Yes, I said everything. We, Barcelona, just defeated Manchester United and won the last Champions League. We have the Dream Three Dynasty. Believe me, if you join Barcelona, we will take you to win all the awards in the world. In Barcelona, you will become a world-class player."
Gu Ran smiled. "Originally, our conversation should have ended when I told you to talk to my agent, Mendes. But out of respect for Barcelona, a well-established and prestigious club, I am still willing to talk to you a few more times and express my attitude directly."
Andre Curry immediately said, "Okay, okay! Mr. Gu Ran, no matter what conditions you put forward, we at Barcelona are willing to negotiate with you sincerely."
Gu Ran shook his head and said, "I don't have any conditions for Barcelona. I want to make it clear that I have no interest in Barcelona or Messi. I will not transfer to Barcelona, so please don't waste unnecessary time and energy on me."
Andre Curry was stunned by Gu Ran's rejection.
Although Barcelona can't be said to be the absolute number one football club in the world, at least in this era, it is undoubtedly in the top three. However, Gu Ran didn't even consider the conditions and directly rejected them! This, this, this...
Andre Curry didn't want to give up, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Gu Ran, has Real Madrid already made an offer for you? What I want to say is that no matter what conditions Real Madrid makes for you, we at Barcelona will only give you more, not less."
Gu Ran waved his hand, "This is not a question of how much to give. I am not interested in Barcelona. I will not go to Barcelona to play a supporting role for Messi."
