Chapter 1031 The promised super center?

Crazy!

All the fans across the country are going crazy!

When Fang Wei, general manager of Beijing Guo'en FC, announced at the press conference that the team had officially introduced Spanish midfielder Xabi Alonso from Bayern Munich and signed a two-year professional contract with the Spanish defensive midfielder, all the reporters in the audience stood up from their seats in shock.

When this news was announced, it was like a bolt from the blue, causing an uproar in the country, and almost all the fans went crazy.

From Terry to Kaka to Xabi Alonso, Beijing Guoan's signings are bigger and more popular than the last.

Who could have thought that Xabi Alonso, who was a main player in Bayern Munich and played a key role in the midfield in the first half of the season, would switch to the Chinese Super League and serve as the commander of the Beijing Guoan team in the second half of the season?

No one could believe it and were doubting the authenticity of the news.

In fact, if this news had not been heard from Fang Wei, everyone's first reaction would probably be that this must be fake, and the kind of news that could not be more fake.

But Fang Wei said that the contract has been signed, and Xabi Alonso joining Beijing Guoan is a foregone conclusion.

This will be the most significant signing this season, oh no, in the history of the Chinese Super League.

The reason is very simple. Xabi Alonso is the first time that the Chinese Super League has poached a popular midfield core from one of the top European teams. If such a star is not considered a big name, then what is a big name?

Ramirez, Guarin, Paulinho and others are all lousy, Xabi Alonso is the midfield superstar!

The whole country is going crazy!

No one expected that Beijing Guoan's efforts to recruit players would become more and more intense.

More importantly, with the in-depth digging of the news media, especially the reports of the German media, Xabi Alonso's transfer fee to the Chinese Super League is actually not high, only 5 million euros, and his annual salary is only slightly higher than when he played for Bayern Munich, but this is also normal, isn't it?

Compared with other Chinese Super League teams' blockbuster signings that cost tens of millions of euros, the signing of Xabi Alonso is really too cheap, especially considering the role that players of his type can play in the team, it is even more worthwhile.

But there is a saying that goes, "One must not stop until one's words shock the world." This is exactly what Mr. Fang Wei is talking about.

When Xabi Alonso joined the Chinese Super League, which caused a huge response in the country, Fang Wei once again announced in an interview with the media that the team had one last big signing, a world-class center forward who would be an even bigger name than Xabi Alonso and the biggest superstar in the history of the Chinese Super League.

Fang Wei's words shocked the whole country again.

Many fans protested, believing that Fang Wei was even more boastful than the previous Guo'en team boss.

"A center forward who is more famous than Xabi Alonso? Is it Messi? Cristiano Ronaldo? Or Ibrahimovic?"

"Oh, I heard that Mendes is trying to sell Falcao in the Chinese Super League recently. Could it be him?"

The last foreign player of Beijing Guo'en team immediately became a hot topic for everyone and attracted nationwide attention.

In contrast, the news that Guoan announced that it would go to Barcelona, ​​Spain for training and play five warm-up matches with teams such as Shakhtar Donetsk of Ukraine, Copenhagen of Denmark, and CSKA Moscow of Russia is unlikely to attract the attention of fans at all.

Not only in China, but also in Europe and even the whole world, everyone is amazed by the continuous big-money signings of Beijing Guoan and other Chinese Super League teams, especially Beijing Guoan, where almost every player is a well-known superstar.

When it was heard that Beijing Guoan was going to introduce a super center who was even more famous than Xabi Alonso, it immediately attracted the attention of fans all over the world. Mainstream European media also reported on it and speculated who it would be.

The first one to be brought out was Dutch striker Robin van Persie, who plays for Fenerbahce in Turkey.

Turkish media had previously reported that a senior Fenerbahce executive once said in an interview with the media that if there was a Chinese Super League team interested in Van Persie, they would be willing to sell him as long as the price was right.

But the news was quickly denied by Van Persie's agent, who said that neither he nor the player had received any invitation from the Chinese Super League, and Van Persie himself had not considered leaving Europe for the time being.

This undoubtedly cut off the rumors about Van Persie from the outside world.

But soon, the British media revealed that a Chinese Super League team was contacting Chelsea's Colombian center Falcao, and Chelsea officials had lost confidence in Falcao and might let him transfer.

Could it be that the player that Beijing Guoan wants to introduce is Falcao?

But soon, The Sun clarified that the player the Chinese Super League team was really interested in was Chelsea's French striker Remy.

As soon as the news reached the country, the fans were immediately dissatisfied.

How is this possible?

The Guoan team has agreed to hire a super center who is even more famous than Xabi Alonso.

If Falcao can barely be considered, then Remy is not even close.

If Remy is considered a super center, then there are a lot of superstars on this planet, right?

Soon, another news came that the striker that Beijing Guoan was interested in was Ajax’s popular striker Luiz Adriano.

After joining Ajax, this center forward has performed quite well, attracting widespread attention from Europe's top teams and becoming a hot commodity in the winter transfer market.

But soon, Ajax announced that they would not let Luis Adriano go during the winter break because the team still had ambitions for the Champions League and Luis Adriano was a crucial member of the team's forward line.

French media soon followed suit and disclosed that someone had photographed Beijing Guoan staff in Paris, contacting Paris Saint-Germain in the hope of bringing in Paris Saint-Germain's Argentine striker Lavezzi, and posted the photos.

The whole world was shocked.

Bielsa, Pochettino, Madoni...

The entire technical team of Beijing Guoan is composed of Argentine players. Isn't it natural for them to introduce Argentine striker Lavezzi?

Moreover, this striker's performance in Paris Saint-Germain is not bad. He is an Argentine international and Messi's right-hand man. Although he is not very famous, he is very strong and young. He is definitely a blockbuster signing.

When the media all over the world were paying attention to the transfer of Beijing Guoan, a major signing finally came into being in the European winter transfer market.

Paris Saint-Germain announced that it would introduce Diego Costa from Atletico Madrid for a sky-high price of 80 million euros.

This transfer shocked the world, and everyone was stunned by both parties of the transaction.

Since Simeone kept Diego Costa out of the team in the first few games before the winter break, many people speculated that Diego Costa might leave the team because he had lost Simeone's favor.

The teams seeking to buy Diego Costa are not only Paris Saint-Germain, but also many other European giants such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Juventus, etc., all of which favor Diego Costa.

After all, this is the most powerful scorer in the European transfer market.

As for another favored striker Luiz Adriano, with Ajax's denial of the rumor, the possibility of the Brazilian striker staying in the team has greatly increased, and Diego Costa has become the best choice for those teams eager to strengthen their attack during the winter break.

Among many competitors, Paris Saint-Germain, which offered the highest price, the most generous conditions and the best treatment, finally won Diego Costa and became the top scorer in the winter transfer market.

This also amazed the whole of Europe.

80 million euros, in the quiet winter transfer market, when Chinese capital is invincible, it can barely be considered to save the face of European teams. But the irony is that Paris Saint-Germain's capital comes from the Middle East.

The entire European winter transfer market looks more like a group of rich Chinese people rushing into a department store selling high-quality goods at low prices, waving checks in their hands and buying, buying, buying!

Fortunately, Paris Saint-Germain can barely be considered a European powerhouse, thus avoiding the embarrassment of the top bidder falling into the hands of others.

But it is obvious that the amazing purchasing power shown by Chinese Super League teams such as Beijing Guoan, Yangcheng Hengda, Jizhou Huaxia, Huai'an Jiangling and Longhai Shenhua in the winter transfer market is enough to shock the whole of Europe and even the world football world.

Dongqiudi has specially produced an in-depth feature to introduce the disruption that Chinese capital has brought to the European transfer market.

That is, even though the end of the European transfer market is getting closer, everyone can see that the transactions are very quiet and the clubs with popular players for sale are not in a hurry. They are all waiting for the Chinese rich men to come.

In fact, Dongqiudi interviewed several European football practitioners, and they all believed that starting from this winter break, Chinese capital has officially entered European football in a big way. From now on, any European team that wants to sell players will definitely give priority to offers from Chinese teams.

The highest bidder wins, this is the law of the market, and no one can resist money, especially those European teams that are struggling to operate.

Of course, there are also media and practitioners in European football who are worried about this situation.

They all generally believe that due to the influence of Chinese capital, the bubble in the European transfer market is intensifying, and the players' values ​​and salaries are also increasing. Although this cannot affect the European football industry for the time being, if it continues for a long time, it is hard to guarantee that it will not be affected in the future.

But some media believe that such worries are groundless.

Because although the Chinese Super League teams have money and can buy a large number of stars, it is difficult for them to buy popular superstars.

Take Beijing Guoan as an example. Whether it is Terry, Kaka or Xabi Alonso, they have all entered the twilight of their careers. Their joining the Chinese Super League team is somewhat suspected of retirement.

As for other players, whether it is Ramirez, Guarin or other players, it is difficult for them to be considered first-line players in European football, let alone the top superstars.

Football stars who truly pursue their football career will still choose to stay in Europe.

Because this is still the core of professional football in the world!

Therefore, this group of people believes that the entry of Chinese capital into European football will not harm the interests of European football. On the contrary, European teams can fully leverage the power of Chinese capital to continue to grow stronger.

Eliminating a group of outdated stars in exchange for high transfer fees and introducing stars in their prime years, this deal is worth it no matter how you look at it.

But just when the two groups of media with different views in Europe were confronting each other and engaging in heated discussions, suddenly the French media revealed a shocking news. It turned out that the fourth foreign aid that Beijing Guoan had confirmed to introduce would be...
