Chapter 793 Good man!
"Master Huan, please have some tea!"
In the high-level meeting room of Barcelona's Camp Nou Stadium, Rosell was busy showing his courtesy to Young Master Huan.
"Okay..." Yang Huan picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Well, this tea is good, very fragrant!"
"Hey, Master Huan, if you like it, I'll have someone send you a few pounds later."
"Oh, that's not necessary. I sell tea myself!" Yang Huan laughed.
Frankly speaking, he really didn't think the tea was that good.
It’s not that it’s bad. Compared with Tingyuxuan’s tea, it is definitely better. After all, this tea is expensive.
But if you ask him how good it is, Yang Huan doesn’t think so, because the tea his grandfather drinks every day is really good tea!
It’s a pity that the supply of tea is limited and cannot be wholesaled. Otherwise, Yang Huan would have gotten it to Tingyuxuan and Wangjiangge long ago.
Looking at Roselle, Yang Huan couldn't help but think of a saying: When you give someone a gift, you must have something in mind.
In fact, there is no need to guess. Barcelona’s current problem is simple. It is just two things: money and people.
To put it more complicatedly, he has neither money nor anyone!
"Master Huan, I believe you are also aware that FIFA recently said that it would ban us from recruiting players in the two transfer windows because of problems with the procedures for introducing players to our youth training camp." Rosell said bitterly.
"Well, I heard about this."
Yang Huan felt that this matter was purely because Barcelona was too arrogant.
If the youth training camp recruits players in violation of regulations and a thorough investigation is conducted, I wonder how many teams will suffer.
But why is Barcelona so unlucky?
Some fans said that it was Real Madrid who reported it!
Oh my god, isn’t this reason too imaginative?
Didn’t Real Madrid violate any rules themselves?
If Real Madrid dares to tell Barcelona's secrets today, Rosell will definitely expose Real Madrid tomorrow.
Youth training recruitment is a confusing matter, it is vague and messy.
According to what Yang Huan heard himself, someone reported the incident anonymously when Barcelona introduced a young Korean player last year.
It is conceivable that when Barcelona was carrying out these transfers, it must have affected the interests of certain people, such as the team that the young players belonged to, or the agent or something, but the other party did not dare to report it openly, so they wrote anonymous letters.
Given FIFA's nature, if no one reports it, they will turn a blind eye. But once someone reports it, the matter is exposed and the media starts to intervene, then, sorry, they will kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
At this time, if we don’t target Barcelona, who else can we target?
So, this investigation was incredible. Yaya Gopei had more than a dozen violations, which was outrageous!
This is really something that you can tolerate your uncle but not your aunt. You must deal with it seriously and not tolerate it!
In fact, it is indeed Barcelona’s own approach that has problems.
When dealing with transfers of players under the age of 18, many teams usually choose a more troublesome approach, which is to circumvent the regulations.
For example, if Southampton introduces an 18-year-old player, they will either simply loan him to the original club, or simply arrange for the player's parents to come over and give him an insignificant job and do the job perfunctorily.
FIFA regulations allow young players to transfer in this situation.
But Barcelona was obviously too arrogant, which led to the current trouble.
What's more, when you pull out a radish, you get a bunch of mud along with it. It's really a rip-off!
Russell looked at Master Huan's half-smile and felt so embarrassed, but was there anything he could do?
In this matter, what else can he do except scolding the group of idiots under his command?
You can only suffer in silence!
"Master Huan, you know, we are currently appealing, and FIFA has also relaxed its policy, allowing us to transfer during the appeal period, so..."
Yang Huan was still nodding, "Well, it's a good thing to be able to transfer!"
Isn’t this a bit too fake?
Master Huan, as the behind-the-scenes boss of Atletico Madrid, you should be hoping that we will be banned from transfers as soon as possible, right?
Rosell smiled bitterly, but did not dare to show any reaction on the surface, "But, Mr. Huan, we have the balance of Neymar's transfer..."
"Oh, you mean the final payment?" Yang Huan said with a sigh, "It's okay, don't worry, we are not short of money recently, don't worry, just pay us back when you have money!"
When Rosell heard this, he immediately looked at Bartomeu and Zubizarreta, and all three of them were surprised.
I originally thought that Master Huan would be difficult to negotiate on this matter, but I didn't expect him to agree so readily.
Good person!
It is true that a journey takes time before one can know a person’s strength, and time takes time before one can know a person’s true character!
Master Huan, good man!
"Uh, but, Master Huan, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."
"Discuss?" Yang Huan felt amused. "Oh, it's okay. Go ahead."
“We’re hoping to bring in Turan.”
"Turan?" Yang Huan was a little surprised. "Are you talking about Arda Turan from Atletico Madrid?"
"Yes!" Russell said with a smile.
He almost bent over!
There's no way, I have no money, I won't bow down, and I won't be polite, okay?
"This is not easy to deal with!" Yang Huan frowned and his tone changed.
"Master Huan, I heard that Atletico Madrid has given the green light!" Rosell said quickly.
"Yes, but there are many teams that are interested in Turan, such as Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United. You know, all the big clubs in Europe are eager to tear down Atletico Madrid and move him back home!"
Russell smiled bitterly. Although this was the truth, Master Huan's words seemed a bit exaggerated.
"By the way, how much money can you afford to buy Turan?" Yang Huan suddenly asked.
Rosell was speechless for a moment, and immediately looked at Zubizarreta, as if to say, Hey, buddy, it's your turn!
Subizaretta was depressed. Why did she have to play the clown herself?
There's nothing he can do, after all he is someone else's subordinate.
"Master Huan, you know, our team needs to be reorganized, so we need to bring in a lot of players this summer. But we are currently having financial problems, so we hope to discuss with Master Huan and ask him to be more flexible on the transfer fee."
"Concession? That's a debt!" Yang Huan raised his eyebrows and shook his head vigorously, "No, absolutely not!"
"Master Huan, this..."
"Stop talking, this is absolutely impossible!" Yang Huan said firmly.
But soon, Yang Huan sighed again, "Sandro, it's not that I won't help you with this matter, but Atletico Madrid also needs to reorganize now. Many players can't be retained, so they must recruit players. In addition, a new stadium also requires funds."
At the end, Master Huan looked earnest.
But anyone who is familiar with Master Huan knows that he is a well-known tycoon in European football!
Russell understood what was going on. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "Master Huan, what if we trade for players?"
"This..." Yang Huan looked very troubled, "I still need to ask Simeone!"
Don't mention it, Yang Huan actually picked up the phone and made a call.
"Hello, Diego, it's me. Yes, I want to tell you something."
"Barcelona want to buy Turan, but they don't have the money to pay the transfer fee. Do you have any of their players in mind?"
"Yes, an exchange. What? Apart from Messi and Neymar, there is no one else you like?"
When Rosell, Bartomeu and others heard this, they immediately broke out in sweat.
How come Young Master Huan has so many talented people under him?
Each one is more arrogant than the other.
Barcelona, the La Liga champion team, doesn't even have players that you guys look up to?
If you say this out loud, you won't be afraid of the wind blowing your tongue off.
"Oh, I see. So you mean you must give cash and players in exchange?"
"Well, okay, I'll talk to them. Send a fax to them right away so I can see the number...."
Roselle immediately asked Zhu Flesa to tell Yang Huan the fax number of this conference room.
After Yang Huan hung up the phone, he looked at Russell and others with a wry smile, looking helpless.
"Either trade him players and cash, or forget it. If I force him, he'll just quit!"
Isn't this too false?
It was so fake that Russell and others almost cried!
Master Huan, aren't you fooling us?
If you can't handle Simeone, who else can?
Everyone knows that you, old man, have the final say in Atletico Madrid.
But when Yang Huan said this, Barcelona knew what he meant.
Players plus cash, this is quite interesting.
"Turan's current market value is 50 million euros..."
"Fifty... fifty million euros?" Roselle and others were surprised.
Why the price increase again?
Didn’t I hear before that it was 40 million?
Yang Huan laughed, "This is Atletico Madrid's decision. After all, the player is so popular right now!"
But soon, Yang Huan was sincere again, "Forget it, what's our relationship? I'll give you a discount. 40 million euros is 40 million euros. A real man should keep his word!"
Rosell saw Bartomeu's hands were shaking, and wasn't he the same?
Buying Arda Turan for 40 million euros would have been absolutely outrageous two years ago, right?
But what about now?
That’s the price!
Barcelona wants to bring Rakitic from Sevilla. Do you know how much Sevilla offered?
Not for sale, or just buy out the contract!
How much is Rakitic's buyout clause?
Twenty-five million euros!
What? Too high?
Please, this was the condition Rakitic proposed when he renewed his contract when he stayed in Sevilla. If it was earlier, his buyout clause would have been 40 million euros!
Barcelona is not willing to use the termination clause because they have to pay taxes, so they hope to negotiate directly with Sevilla and still intend to consider using the player plus cash method to complete the deal.
Just imagine, Turan is only higher than Rakitic, plus he has outstanding performance in Atletico Madrid, and he also has the halo of the Champions League runner-up. Such a player has a market price of 40 million euros!
Of course, who knows if there is really a team willing to pay this transfer fee for Turan?
Rosell actually does not feel resistance to Turan's 40 million euros worth. It can only be said that the bubble in the European football transfer market is too serious, and the players' values are rising too fast and too outrageously.
Of course, Barcelona also made certain contributions behind this.
That is to bring in Neymar from Southampton.
But it was this transfer that put Barcelona under a heavy debt burden.
"Master Huan, I wonder which player Simeone wants to get?" Rosell asked with a sigh in his heart.
"I don't know either. I'll send you a fax soon!" Yang Huan replied with a smile.
He knew that Russell agreed.
Currently in the Barcelona team, except Messi and Neymar, there is almost no one who cannot be sold.
Russell simply let it go. He thought that he had to sell it anyway, so it didn't matter who he sold it to.
The only frustrating thing is that no one is interested in high-paid players like Alves and Mascherano.
It really makes people... forget it, I can’t swear.
Just at this moment, there was a noise coming from the fax machine.
A fax has arrived from Atlético Madrid.
But Subizaretta, who was the first to see the fax, exclaimed in shock.
