Chapter 778
? The summer transfer window in European football is always very lively.
The media are keen to speculate on the whereabouts of the stars, and the fans are also very concerned about the team's signings, and they have climbed the trees one after another.
In the Premier League, Manchester City's signings are naturally attracting attention.
In such a developed media environment, it is actually difficult to keep any secrets, especially when it is rumored that Manchester City is going to introduce a star like Sanchez, the media began to stir uproar.
"The news from Catalonia that Sanchez is interested because of the introduction of Neymar from Barcelona, and Manchester City may be the closest club to Sanchez, they have made an offer to Barcelona, and sources claim that Manchester City's The transfer department has contacted Sanchez privately, but Manchester City has denied it!!"
With the Daily Mail reporting on the Sanchez-Man City affair, other outlets in Fleet Street soon followed.
More news and speculation came out.
"Sanchez himself kept silent about the transfer rumors in an interview. The new Barcelona coach Enrique said that Sanchez is part of his plan, and even Neymar needs to compete for the post. On the Manchester City side, some reporters photographed that Coach Gao Bo has returned to the team and has fully started to preside over Manchester City's transfer work! However, according to the speculation of authoritative sources, Manchester City will not make too large-scale signings this season, they may Focus on the centre-back position, not the striker - City already have the best striker in the world!"
With the media reports, many Manchester City fans also began to look forward to the joining of Sanchez.
"Manchester City's introduction of Sanchez is not without purpose. Kaka's age is here. In the second half of last season, Kaka's physical fitness has already shown signs of decline, and with the arrival of the new season, this season's Manchester City will be Continuing to fight on the fourth line, Kaka's physical condition has to cause people's concerns, and if Sanchez is introduced, he can play on the left and right sides, and Kaka's position as an attacking midfielder is whether it is Griezmann or David Seat Elva, even Hazard can play, which avoids that if Kaka's physical fitness cannot support the whole season, Manchester City still has a strong enough star to come up." "Sky Sports" analyzed.
......
Manchester, City Football Academy.
The heavy rain continued to fall.
One or two black business collapses drove in from the door and drove directly into the parking garage under the office building.
"Fortunately there is no competition now..."
Gao Bo sat in the back of the car,
Looking at the rain outside the window, he said.
When the car stopped, Gao Bo got out of the car and hurriedly took the elevator to the office area on the third floor.
Although the team is currently on holiday, the club's office building is still very busy.
The team's business cooperation, youth training, transfers and other aspects of work will not stop because of the offseason.
And the busiest among them is the staff of the natural transfer department.
Gao Bo did not go to his own independent office, but came to the transfer team.
The staff were busy and did not stop when they saw the arrival of the head coach.
"Gao, Sanchez's transfer has encountered some obstacles!"
Gross, who was in charge of the transfer negotiation, came over with the document and handed it to Gao Bo.
"The players don't want to come?!" Gao Bo asked. He opened the information, which showed the process of contact between Manchester City and Barcelona and the player's agent.
"Barcelona has agreed to release in principle, but I'm afraid there will be some difficulties in persuading Sanchez to join. The main thing is... in terms of the main position, the players are a little hesitant."
Gao Bo nodded: "You can tell him that we will cast a full net next season, we will fight for championships on all fronts, and players will not lack opportunities to play. If there is really no way, we will turn the target to another player. "
A transfer transaction, if the player is unwilling to join, the team has no good way.
Therefore, Gao Bo did not intend to hang himself from a tree.
Gros nodded: "These are all right, Sanchez's agent Felicevic has basically accepted our conditions, and the players are also a little moved, but the most critical issue now is... It's time for a competitor, so negotiations have stalled and they want to sell!"
"Competitors?" Gao Bo frowned.
"Yes, Manchester United! According to reliable sources, Manchester United have also approached Sanchez...." Gross spread out and said, "Because it is Manchester United, so..."
Gao Bo understood what Gross meant.
Compared with Manchester City, Manchester United also has enough financial strength to meet Sanchez's salary requirements. More importantly, Manchester United's head coach is Guardiola, who introduced Sanchez when Guardiola coached Barcelona.
From a personal point of view, Gao Bo and Sanchez have little friendship, and Guardiola has coached Sanchez for a few seasons.
"We were close to an agreement, but Manchester United stabbed it..."
Gross said helplessly.
"How did Manchester United talk with them?" Gao Bo asked after putting down the materials.
"We are already talking about the salary, but the transfer fee given by Manchester United makes Barcelona a little unsatisfied. At the same time, Manchester United has not received information from us on the salary, so the salary they give should also be A little less than ours."
Gao Bo nodded.
If he used to regard Sanchez as the first target in the winger position, then until now, Manchester City will try their best to shoot no matter what, even if they can't win Sanchez, they will mess up Manchester United's game.
The relationship between the two teams is originally a competition. If Manchester United gets Sanchez, the strength of Manchester United will increase, which means that the strength of Manchester City will decline relatively.
For two teams that are in absolute competition, once they learn about each other's signing plans, it will definitely cause trouble.
The same thing applies to Manchester United.
Gao Bo even suspects that Guardiola is not too eager for a player like Sanchez.
Because of this period of time, in the transfer rumors about Manchester United, the winger is more of the Brazilian winger Douglas Costa, who was absent from the Ukrainian giant Donetzk, rather than Sanchez. Manchester United suddenly turned the target and aimed at Sanchez, eight out of ten Nine is to learn from some sources that Manchester City is really taking action against Sanchez.
"It must be the news leaked from Barcelona!" Gross was very dissatisfied with Barcelona's release of the news.
"Don't worry, Guardiola has been in Barcelona for so many years, he must have a news channel there!" Gao Bo laughed.
"They want to mess with us, and we will mess with them too! We also got in touch with the Shakhtar Donetsk Club and raised the price for Manchester United!"
Gao Bo said, and then took a few steps back and forth.
"Their agent can be a breakthrough!" Gao Bo said to Gross.
Some things don't need to be said too thoroughly, and Gross is also a smart man.
Sanchez's agent Felicevic's influence on Sanchez is a point that Manchester City can use.
Manchester United has the advantage of Manchester United, and of course Manchester City has the advantage of Manchester City.
Gross is a veteran, he knows how to get a player's agent...
