Chapter 626 Yang Huan, I'm not done with you!
"Boss, something terrible has happened!"
As soon as Abramovich stepped into the gate of Stamford Bridge, he was immediately poured a bucket of cold water by Granovskaia who was coming towards him, which almost extinguished the passion in his heart.
If Abramovich had not seen a lot of Chelsea fans gathered outside the gate, cheering and supporting him, including a few good-looking female fans, he would have probably lost his temper on the spot.
Seeing his boss' unhappy expression, Granovskia immediately swallowed back what he was about to say.
Abramovich turned around with a smile, facing the Chelsea fans outside, raised his hands, and signaled them to calm down, not get too excited, and listen to him.
The fans soon quieted down.
"Jose is back in the team!"
Just this simple sentence almost drove the fans outside crazy.
They just saw Mourinho appear at Stamford Bridge, so they rushed over.
"I can assure you that last season's defeat was just an accident. Our management has already made a plan and started to act. In the new season, I guarantee that we will become more competitive and we will strive for the league championship!"
"good!"
"Very good!"
"marvelous!"
There was a burst of warm cheers and applause at the scene.
For this group of Chelsea fans, what could be more important than a promise from the owner?
Those who say that Chelsea’s recruitment is not good and the boss is unwilling to spend more money can all shut up!
Abramovich was very satisfied with the effect he created. After waving to the fans with a smile, he turned and walked into Stamford Bridge and went straight to the meeting room.
Granovskia followed quickly behind in her high heels.
"Marina, I've reminded you many times not to make such a fuss in front of outsiders in the future!"
Abramovich scolded as he walked. He felt that his right-hand man was going backwards. How could he be so inappropriate? Was he going to embarrass himself in front of so many people?
"I understand, boss!" Granovskia had no choice but to listen.
Abramovich didn't say anything more. He didn't even look back. He just kept walking forward. "Tell me, what's the matter?"
As they were talking, the two of them had already walked to the front of the conference room.
Granovskia quickly reported: "Boss, we just received news from Italy that Napoli has accepted Tottenham's offer for Cavani."
"Tottenham Hotspur?" Abramovich had just pushed open the door of the conference room and was completely stunned. He just stood there, neither going in nor out, with his hand still pushing the door.
In the conference room were Mourinho and his agent Mendes, who were looking at the two people at the door with some surprise.
What's going on?
Granovskaia glanced at Mourinho and Mendes in the conference room, hesitant, not knowing whether to say it.
Abramovich quickly realized that the two people in the conference room were there to sign the contract.
"It's okay, we are all family, just talk!"
After closing the door, Abramovich walked to the top seat, sat down, and appeared very calm.
"Yes, boss!" Granovskia hurried over and sat down in his seat.
"According to our intelligence, Tottenham Hotspur have made a bid of up to €65 million for Napoli."
"What?" Abramovich was shocked. "Sixty-five million euros?"
He was completely stunned.
Damn it, the price I offered to Naples was only 50 million euros, but you directly offered 15 million euros more to meet Naples' asking price without even bargaining.
But wait…Tottenham?
"Marina, are you mistaken? Tottenham Hotspur?" Abramovich thought it was impossible.
He is no stranger to this North London rival. Does he have the ability to come up with so much money?
Who would have thought that Granovskia would nod with certainty, "Absolutely true!"
Mendes, who had been listening but not saying anything, interrupted at this time.
"Roman, I was just about to tell you this. Tottenham Hotspur has been acquired."
"It was bought by someone?" Abramovich was shocked again.
"Yes, it was said to have been completed two days ago."
"Two days ago?" Abramovich was surprised again.
The acquisition was completed two days ago and now they are starting to sign Cavani. This efficiency is really extraordinary.
"According to the intelligence I received, this acquisition was completed through the banks and companies of Cash Harris and Pini Zahavi, and the big money behind it was from Qatar in the Middle East."
"The owner of Paris Saint-Germain?"
Mendes shook his head. “No, it is said that he is the Prime Minister of Qatar. So the new chairman of Tottenham Hotspur is called Hamad. It is said that he is a member of the Qatari royal family and the only son of the Prime Minister.”
"Hamad? Prime Minister of Qatar?" Abramovich wondered why he looked so familiar.
"Yes, he is also a member of the Saints Fan Club and has a very close relationship with Yang Huan!"
"Yes, I've heard of him before. He actually bought Tottenham Hotspur?" Abramovich was shocked again.
Why are there so many surprises today? I'm almost having indigestion!
Mendes nodded and smiled, "So, my informant told me that Yang Huan also reportedly holds a certain amount of shares in Tottenham Hotspur, but I'm afraid only those involved know how much, but I heard it's a lot."
"Yang Huan?" Abramovich's heart trembled when he heard the name.
How come everything has to do with this guy?
"It's not just Tottenham. Apart from Southampton, I heard Atletico Madrid and Monaco were linked with him, and the most recent one was Ajax."
Abramovich narrowed his eyes. "What does he want to do?"
Mendes chuckled, "Of course, we are going to do something that you and I both wanted to do before but failed to do!"
The two of them hit it off before and wanted to form a professional football league by acquiring several European professional teams. Through the different positioning of the teams within the league, they could complement each other and form their own circulation system to maximize their common interests.
But later, with the advent of the subprime mortgage crisis, Abramovich tightened his money supply and the plan aborted.
But who could have thought that Yang Huan would make a comeback and want to do this!
"Hmph, him? Can he do it?" Abramovich snorted in dissatisfaction.
How could Yang Huan accomplish something that even he himself couldn't do?
Jorge Mendes shook his head and said with a sigh: "Looking at the past year, Monaco was promoted to Ligue 1. Under Martino's leadership, it is estimated that it will be a force that cannot be ignored in Ligue 1 this season."
"There's no need to talk about Atletico Madrid. They won the La Liga title last season and made it to the Champions League. As long as they can maintain their current results and continue to make it to the Champions League, I think the Colchoneros will be successful."
"Southampton's situation is even more ideal. They are the dark horse team with the highest expectations in this season's Champions League!"
At this point, Mendes paused deliberately, "So, there is no need to say more about the answer!"
Abramovich was a little depressed. He found that no matter what he did, he would be surpassed by Yang Huan.
Mourinho, who was sitting next to him, had no interest in these so-called capital operations. He just looked worried when he heard that Cavani was intercepted by Tottenham Hotspur. He found an opportunity and immediately interrupted.
"If Cavani goes to Tottenham, what will happen to our forward line in the new season?"
In a word, both Abramović and Mendes were brought back to reality.
Regardless of other things, how should the forward line be arranged in the new season?
One of the four most sought-after forwards in the European transfer market right now is Real Madrid's Higuain, whom Mourinho doesn't like.
One is Lewandowski of Dortmund, whom Mourinho doesn't like very much, and he also faces competition from Bayern Munich.
More importantly, Dortmund refused to let him go.
There is another one, that is Mandzukic from Atletico Madrid, but the price offered by the Colchoneros was outrageous, which scared away all buyers.
The last one is Cavani from Napoli, but now he has been overtaken by his arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
"I have received news that Arsenal has further increased its offer and is said to be planning to invest 80 million euros and introduce Higuain and Ozil at the same time. Real Madrid has basically agreed."
Mendes' news undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
City rivals Arsenal snatched Higuain and Ozil, and Tottenham Hotspur snatched Cavani. The two major competitors have strengthened their strength, but what about Chelsea?
Go and compete with Bayern Munich for Lewandowski?
Not to mention the extremely high transfer fee, even if you want to snatch it, it would probably be difficult to get it.
Who dares to ignore Bayern Munich's ability to spend money?
Even though he just bought out Gotze's contract and spent tens of millions of euros, for the wealthy Bundesliga tycoons, spending tens of millions more is not a problem.
At worst, they can just save some money in the next few years. Anyway, the entire Bundesliga is Bayern Munich's youth training ground.
Well, there is only one candidate left.
That's Mandzukic!
The Croatian is the type of center forward that Mourinho likes very much. He has good footwork and fits Mourinho's tactics.
only……
"Now that both Higuain and Cavani have found new clubs, I'm afraid Atletico Madrid will definitely raise the price for Mandzukic!"
Having said that, Mendes couldn't help but look at Abramovich helplessly.
Why bother?
Wouldn't it have been better if you had simply agreed to 40 million euros from Atletico Madrid to bring in Mandzukic?
Now, all the big clubs in Europe who want to strengthen their forward line are eyeing Mandzukic. If you make a move at this time, you will only be in vain and let Atletico Madrid slaughter you.
Or, you can simply bring in a player with slightly weaker strength, or even continue to trust Demba Ba and Torres.
But in this case, it is hard to say whether Chelsea can still be competitive in the new season.
After all, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, the top four rivals in the league, have made great efforts to recruit players.
Abramovich also knew what was going on and couldn't help but look at Mourinho again, hoping to find some good news from the Portuguese madman.
But the Portuguese are also very realistic. When they were kicked out and fired, no one was polite to them.
Now that he has returned to the club for the second time, he is ambitious and wants to make a difference. If Abramovich is unwilling to recruit new players, the team will lack competitiveness and his own reputation will be damaged. I'm afraid that Abramovich will be the first to settle accounts with him.
So, after feeling the gaze of the Russians, Mourinho simply remained silent.
Anyway, this is my attitude. I need a center. Just buy him. If you don’t buy him and fail to achieve results, that’s your problem.
Abramovich was depressed.
Given the Portuguese madman's big mouth, if he doesn't buy it, I'm afraid he will tell the fans the truth and distance himself from the matter.
In this way, wouldn't the image of a good boss that he had worked so hard to establish be ruined?
If you can buy...
Even though you know it's a pit, you still try to jump down. My God, what kind of world is this?
