The final revelry of the championship celebration culminated at Villa Park.

In celebration of the final moments, the classic song "Farewell Moment" was played live at Villa Park Stadium.

Yes, it's time to say goodbye.

Deisler, Ronaldo, Barak and Shevchenko stood in a row.

Teammates hugged them in turn and said goodbye.

Fang Jue stood aside and applauded slowly, although he had a smile on his face, the camera captured the corner of Aston Villa's young and handsome manager's eyes red.

Fang Jue wiped the corners of his eyes.

He finally hugged them one by one.

"Ronnie, all the best for the future."

"Michael, thank you for your great contribution to the team."

"Sheva, it's an honor to be your coach."

"Basti, I wish you a happy life."

"It's time to say goodbye......" The classic song is emotional, and many fans at the scene have red eyes.

The four veterans were red-eyed, and Ronaldo, who had the most delicate feelings, covered his face and cried like a child.

"It's time to say goodbye......"

Tens of thousands of fans at the scene all stood up and sang the song to bid farewell to the four highly decorated veterans.

Goodbye, Basti.

Goodbye, Ronnie.

Goodbye, Michael.

Goodbye, Sheva.

Good luck, happiness and fulfillment in life.

……

Hiss.

My head hurts.

Fang Jue got up from the bed and rubbed his temples.

After last night's celebration, the whole team had a party, and he was poured a lot of wine.

After a hangover, there is emptiness.

Fang Jue looked at the bedside table, where there was a glass of warm boiled water and a piece of sticky note paper.

Papa and Marina went out shopping with the children.

The housekeeper heard the sound of Fang Jue getting up and asked if he wanted to prepare lunch now.

Fang Jue looked at the time, it was already noon.

After eating a relatively light lunch, Fang Jue flipped through the newspaper for a while.

Aston Villa won the 2010/2011 UEFA Champions League with a 5-2 thrashing of Barcelona Dream III in the Champions League final, and deservedly made the focus of global media coverage.

Fang Jue looked through it, they were all praising Aston Villa, and he sighed comfortably, which was well deserved.

Of course, these newspapers are carefully selected, and they are all praise.

The Spanish side criticized Aston Villa, denounced Fang Jue's deceptive tactics, and complained about Grino for causing Busquets' red card, Fang Jue couldn't see it, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

The winner is king.

Fang Jue soaked alone in the swimming pool in the back garden in a daze.

The team won the Premier League, the English League Cup, the UEFA Champions League, the treble, the season is over, the players are on vacation, a hard season, standing at the peak of glory, is a tired sage moment.

The players have gone on holiday to enjoy the long-awaited holiday, there are no continental competitions this summer except for the Copa America, and there are no America-American national team internationals in the Aston Villa team other than Ronaldinho, so the players can relax a lot.

Fang Jue also began to enjoy his vacation, and Papa had already made a package of vacation plans.

"How? Do you like it? Papa asked.

Fang Jue looked at the 'behemoth' in front of him in surprise, a Gulfstream G200 business jet.

A captain in his forties lined up with the co-pilot and two flight attendants to introduce the aircraft to Fang Jue.

Well, the captain is a middle-aged uncle, and the co-captain is also the same style, two flight attendants, to be exact, air mothers, five big and three thick, look more like female bodyguards.

The Gulfstream G200 is a super-midsize business jet and one of the most luxurious business jets in the world.

The aircraft has a range of 6,660 km, a cruising speed of 849 km / h, a maximum cruising altitude of 13,860 meters, and can carry 8 to 10 passengers.

This is Papa's gift to Fang Jue for winning the Champions League, a luxury private business jet.

"How much?" Fang Jue asked Papa.

"It's not expensive, it's less than 10 million pounds." Papa glanced at Fang Jue, "I bought it with my own pocket money." ”

Just...... Less than 10 million pounds.

Well, that's pretty Papa.

Together, Papa and Marina made travel plans, first around the Mediterranean, and finally on their own private island, the one that Reberto had given to his nephew, which had grown quite large after more than a year of construction.

Billions worth of private business jets, private islands, Fang Jue sighed, he finally lived to be the person he hated the most before.

Life is so boring and boring.

Just when Fang Jue was enjoying the holiday, Aston Villa officially announced the departure of veteran Ballack.

Ballack joined Bundesliga giants Bayer Leverkusen for €6 million.

Some German media believe that the transfer fee is too high.

Aston Villa obviously don't see it that way, and they still think that this price is a conscience price.

In one season at Aston Villa, Ballack has five goals and six assists in the league, and two goals and three assists in the Champions League.

Of course, most of the media generally believe that Aston Villa made another profit, signing Ballack for free, and the team won the treble, and then exchanged Ballack for six million euros, making a solid profit.

……

Fang Jue was lying on a beach chair, talking to Byron, the club's general manager, and occasionally looked up to see the women and children playing in the water.

Before the team was disbanded during the holiday, Fang Jue and the team's No. 1 goalkeeper Roberto . Enke held a meeting, and Fang Jue said frankly that the team will bring in a goalkeeper in the new season.

Fang Jue offered Enke three options.

One is to stay at Aston Villa and compete with the new goalkeeper.

If Nke wants to leave, the club will not embarrass him with a transfer fee.

As an alternative, the team's current goalkeeper coach Marshall has resigned to opt for a move to League Two side AFC Wimbledon.

Enke can also do Andy. Marshall's previous job was the team's goalkeeper coach and his side job was to serve as the team's third goalkeeper, but in this case, Enke's salary would need to be drastically reduced, after all, the coach's salary is much lower than that of the player.

Objectively speaking, Fang Jue's treatment of players is indeed quite good and honest, and even the "Sun", which has been hacking him, admits this: 'The players who left Villa have a good relationship with Fang Jue, and they have not turned their faces and left. ’

Although three options are provided, however, Fang Jue feels that Enke will consider between the first two, as for whether he will choose to stay or return to the Bundesliga, he doesn't know, German players generally have the habit of returning to their roots, and it is also possible that Enke, who is about to turn 34, chooses to return to the Bundesliga for retirement.

What Fang Jue didn't expect was that just two days ago, Enke was happy to make a decision, and he chose the third one.

And the No. 1 goalkeeper of Aston Villa directly said that he was not a third goalkeeper, he retired directly, and then entered Fang Jue's coaching staff as a goalkeeper coach.

Fang Jue was directly stunned.

Thirty-four years old, in other positions may be twilight, to consider retirement, but, in the goalkeeper position, thirty-four years old is actually not too old, can still play for two years.

Then thinking about Deisler's choice and the tradition of German players retiring 'early', Fang Jue didn't say much.

Roberto. Enke will terminate his contract with Aston Villa early, announce his retirement, and then go straight to Fang Jue's coaching staff as a goalkeeper coach.

With that in mind, Aston Villa are now embarking on a search for a good goalkeeper in the transfer market.

Including club CEO Bob. Clark, as well as the club's general manager, are leaning towards bringing in an experienced big-name goalkeeper.

Among them, Bob. Clarke's target is Juventus' goalkeeper Gianluigi, and Mr. Clarke has even figured out the slogan to attract Buffon: Do you want to win the Champions League? Come to Vera!

Byron strongly called on the team to bring in Real Madrid goalkeeper and captain Casillas.

Byron believes that Casillas' athletic value, commercial value and influence are the best choices.

When he held a video conference call, Fang Jue was shocked at the time:

One wants to dig up the teenager Buffon.

One is going to dig up St. Cassie.

He hasn't even floated yet, and these two left and right protectors have floated.

Fang Jue didn't speak, he didn't say anything, he asked the two high-level executives to operate first.

If one of these two can be poached, Aston Villa's goal is tantamount to a double insurance.

Aston Villa tentatively proposed the possibility of buying Buffon to Juventus FC, but Juventus FC directly refused, not only at the club level, but Buffon himself also sent a message to Aston Villa FC through an intermediary, thanking Aston Villa for his favor, but he will not leave Juventus.

After hitting a wall here at the Turin giants, Aston Villa FC extended their claws to Real Madrid, a super-giants much bigger than them.

To Fang Jue's surprise, Real Madrid was very ambiguous about Aston Villa's intentions and actions to poach Casillas.

They didn't say no outright.

Soon, Papa's think tank analyzed the reason.

In fact, Florentino was cautious about Aston Villa's move to poach Casillas, neither actively pushing but also resenting it.

Florentino was worried about the opposition of the fans, but at the same time felt that it was an opportunity.

In fact, there is a semi-open secret at Real Madrid, and Casillas has never convinced Florentino.

As early as 2000, after ascending to the presidency, Florentino has been looking at Casillas with questioning eyes, even if he entered Real Madrid for the second time this time, Florentino still doesn't like Casillas, Casillas at this time is already San Cassi, the reason why he doesn't like Casillas has little to do with the strength factor, this is because the president of Real Madrid just doesn't like a strong captain who is very powerful and has the support of fans and locker rooms.

"Florentino got rid of Raul last year, and now he's likely to go after Casillas." Byron said, "Real Madrid, Mr. President, doesn't like strong homegrown captains, and he wants the stars he has bought a lot of money to be the flag and the leader. ”

Byron is still trying to persuade Fang Jue to agree to move forward with Casillas' transfer.

The crux of the matter now is that the Real Madrid hierarchy may be secretly trying to sell Casillas, but Casillas himself does not want to leave.

Fang Jue directly vetoed it.

It's not just that the twisted melon is not sweet, but the biggest reason is the transfer fee.

Real Madrid has already hinted that without 50 million euros, don't want to take Casillas.

, Dandan.

Lao Tzu is crazy, so he will spend 50 million euros to buy a goalkeeper, and he is a goalkeeper who is already 30 years old.

It is true that the thirty-year-old Casillas is still the top goalkeeper in active football, and the value of tens of millions of euros is also worth it, but in Fang Jue's view, it is not cost-effective.

He directly smashed out 10 million krypton gold and used the [Target Search System] to search.

Fang Jue directly limited the age condition of the search to the maximum age limit of the [target search system] of twenty-one years old, after all, the goalkeeper position is too young and not at ease.

In fact, even the 21-year-old goalkeeper is still young and immature.

However, Fang Jue believes in the system, the system is produced, and it is trustworthy.

David. De Gea.

This is the optimal choice given by the system.

David is still more than five months old and will turn 21 years old. David De Gea, who plays for Atletico Madrid in La Liga, is a Atletico Madrid academy player.

De Gea, who played for Atletico Madrid's first team at the age of 19, began to make his mark at Atletico last season and became Atletico's first-choice goalkeeper last season.

It can be said that despite being only 21 years old, the Spanish goalkeeper has already shown maturity and stability that does not match his age, as well as great talent and potential.

The handsome, handsome and talented coach Fang Jue once again opened the magic eyes of Bole and took a fancy to the young goalkeeper of Atletico Madrid, and he told the club's top management to contact Atletico Madrid that he must win Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David at the most affordable price. De Gea's order.

Then, Fang Jue heard Byron's surprised voice on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong?" Fang Jue asked.

"Boss, I was about to report to you that Atletico Madrid has taken a fancy to one of our players."

"Huh? Who do they have their eye on? Fang Jue asked.

"Carlos. Cuellar. ”

Fang Jue was a little surprised, he thought that Atletico Madrid was interested in players such as Bale or Modric, needless to say, the former is now the most popular star in the transfer market, of course, Atletico Madrid's financial resources, want to chase Bale, there is still a little worse, and the current Aston Villa is much higher than Atletico Madrid's forced qualifications.

As for the latter, Atletico Madrid were interested in Modric when Fang Jue was in charge of Ibiza.

Fang Jue didn't expect Atletico Madrid to look at the team's full-back Cuellar.

Then, as soon as Fang Jue pondered, he knew why Atletico Madrid had a crush on Cuellar.

Without him, Cuellar is excellent.

In the just-concluded season, the Spanish full-back scored two goals and provided ten assists in the Premier League; In the Champions League, Cuellar also scored two goals; In the English League Cup, Cuellar had one assist.

With four goals and eleven assists in a season, that's a remarkable achievement for a full-back.

Moreover, while Cuellar brushes up on assists, he also performs very well on the defensive end, and he can attack and defend full-backs, which is a good thing.

In addition, Cuellar is 29 years old, which is still the golden age for a full-back.

The more Fang Jue thought about it, the more he felt that Atletico Madrid had a really good vision and what an excellent player he had taken ain.

'Tell Atletico Madrid that Cuellar is an important part of Villa and that we won't give it up unless there's an offer that the club can't refuse. Fang Jue said.

He definitely didn't want to sell players for cash when they were at their highest, just to replenish fresh blood.

It's not that he is unkind, it's that after Inter Milan won the Champions League a year ago, the operation experience with McCone and other players reminded him of the situation.

In the summer of 2006, McCone joined Inter Milan for a transfer fee of 6 million euros.

At the time, McCone was unknown.

Four years later, last year, when the Brazilian reached the top of Europe with Inter Milan, the price quoted in the transfer market for McConn's transfer started at 40 million euros.

At that time, many people in football began to recognize McCone's status as "the world's No. 1 right-back", and McCone completed the transformation from an unknown player to a top star in a magical way.

Then, a year later, Bale stepped on McConn's corpse to become famous, and then became popular all the way, and the Brazilian defender is now worth about 20 million euros, and in just one year, it has depreciated by nearly 20 million euros.

Lessons from the past, Fang Jue had to learn from experience.

Kyle Walker has slowly grown up after a season of training.

Therefore, Cuellar is not impossible to sell, the key is to see how much Atletico Madrid can come up with.

Moreover, Fang Jue also understands the feelings of a wanderer who has left his homeland for many years, and believes that Cuellar should also be very happy to return to play in Spain.

Of course, the most important thing is that sentence, it depends on the sincerity of Atletico Madrid.

There is money, pay for it.

If you don't have any money, you can give as much as you can, it's really not enough, you can pull people to cash.

Soon, Atletico Madrid got a response from Aston Villa: Cuellar is not for sale, and they will not let him go unless there is an irresistible price.

Atletico Madrid saw this reply and understood.

They made their first offer tentatively.

Faced with this offer, Aston Villa did not refuse outright, but sent Atletico Madrid back with a fax of a data sheet, which is Cuellar's playing time and goals and assists at Aston Villa last season, as well as the scoring of outstanding games.

Atletico Madrid stared at the fax and felt that there was a sentence written between the lines: not enough, you have to add money!
