Yang Huan said so solemnly that he was going to announce some decisions, and everyone here, especially those who didn't know, looked at Young Master Huan with attention, and the entire Glory Square suddenly became silent.

The main podium is located on the steps of the main entrance of the stadium, which is relatively high and overlooks the people in the square.

This made Young Master Huan very proud in his heart.

He likes the feeling of being looked up to by everyone, it's really cool and enjoyable!

"First of all, we want to clarify that so far, all the news about the transfer of our Southampton players is not true, and we have not reached any agreement with any team on the transfer of players, so the fans can rest assured!"

As soon as Yang Huan's words came out, there were some voices below.

Obviously, there is something wrong with Yang Huan's words.

Yes, maybe Southampton didn't have an agreement with other teams, but wasn't there no contact and negotiations?

He didn't say it, which is very doubtful!

'I know that Southampton have been poached by a lot of big teams in the last couple and we have lost a lot of players, but at that time we had to make a painful decision to build a new stadium.

"But now that our new stadium has been completed, from now on, we at Southampton can proudly tell everybody and the world that we are determined and confident to keep our core players!"

As soon as Yang Huan's words fell, the audience immediately applauded!

"Okay, that's amazing!"

"Young Master Huan said it well, that's what we want to do!"

"It's great, I've been waiting for the team to do this!"

"Isn't it? Sell the core every year, when will it be the first to sell? ”

"Young Master Huan, you are so powerful, I love you!"

Saints fans are indeed quite emotional about the club's declaration.

In the past few years, the team has sold people every year, and they have sold all the biggest stars.

From captain Adam Lallana, defensive pillar Benatia, midfield star Stroman, to later Neymar, Gareth Bale, Vidal and so on, Southampton's stars have been sold one after another.

All the Saints fans are in their eyes and hurt in their hearts.

If this group of players were still around, how strong would Southampton be today?

Especially looking at this group of players, all of them are shining in other teams, which makes Saints fans feel even more sorry.

Well, now the team has decided to keep their key players, which proves that Southampton are going to make a big splash.

From ancient times to the present, I have never seen a team that has become a giant by selling people.

Yang Huan was on the main podium, raising his hands and signaling everyone to be quiet.

waited until the scene became silent again, and then Young Master Huan continued.

"I would like to solemnly announce that we have signed a new contract extension with five players – Manuel Neuer, Toni Kroos, Raphael Varane, Nemanja Matic and Sturridge – who will continue to play for Southampton for the next five and six years!"

As soon as Yang Huan's words came out, the audience immediately applauded again.

Who is Neuer?

There is no one of the strongest goalkeepers in the world!

It has always been rumored that Bayern Munich wants to take Neuer away, but now, the renewal of the team's contract will undoubtedly tell all the poachers that you all get out of the calf!

The same is true of Toni Kroos, Southampton's midfield manager who has been poached by all the big clubs, but now Southampton are clearly determined to keep the midfielder.

Raphael Varane is the backbone of the team's defence, and he has been quite solid this season, whether in the Premier League or the Champions League, and is currently the main central defender of the French national team, and is considered by almost everyone to be the most powerful top central defender in Europe in the next decade.

The renewal of Varane's contract undoubtedly means that Southampton's defensive core will not be empty.

As for Matic and Sturridge, the former is the barrier of Southampton's midfield this season, both offensive and defensive, quite good, is an important member of the team, highly valued by Bielsa, but because he has never been able to play the absolute main position, there have always been rumors that he is leaving, but now he has renewed his contract.

Sturridge is currently England's top striker, England's top scorer this season, scoring 21 goals in the Premier League.

But Sturridge's situation is also the same as Matic, he is strong enough and relatively young, but in the fierce competition in Southampton, he has never been able to take charge of himself and serve as the absolute main force, so he is also tempted by the outside world.

Arsenal, for example, have been rumored to bring in Sturridge.

However, Southampton have now renewed Sturridge's contract, at least proving that he will remain with the club for some time to come.

Fans were undoubtedly ecstatic to hear these exciting news from Yang Huan's mouth.

However, in the eyes of many reporters at the scene, especially those with a keen sense of news, there are still doubts in Yang Huan's words.

For example, Suarez, who is now very fierce in the outside world.

The Uruguayan striker has been the brightest hitman in Europe this season, the Premier League's top scorer, and together with Sturridge, they form a lethal double striker who is currently poached by Barcelona and Real Madrid.

But in Yang Huan's renewal list, there is no name for him!

However, this does not mean that Suarez will transfer, after all, he has only been a year since he switched to the Saints from Liverpool, and he signed a five-year contract before, and now it has just begun, and it is indeed too early to talk about a contract extension.

Stars such as Eden Hazard, Luka Modric, Xavi Martinez, David Alaba, Pogba, and James Rodriguez have all received attention and poaching from the outside world.

Does that mean that these players who have not renewed their contracts are likely to leave the team?

When the reporter raised his hand and threw this question to Yang Huan, Young Master Huan in front of the main podium laughed.

"Please don't read too much into it, in fact, we have officially started the contract renewal work since about three months ago, and many players are still negotiating contract renewals, and no consensus has been reached, but we are very confident that we can keep the players!"

But Yang Huan's answer was still unsatisfactory.

"Master Huan, can you be specific about Southampton's transfer strategy this summer?"

One reporter simply asked his own question straight to the point.

Yang Huan laughed, "I definitely can't say the specific transfer strategy, if I tell you who we have a crush on, wouldn't it expose our target?" ”

There was a burst of laughter below, but they all felt that Young Master Huan was somewhat suspicious of avoiding the serious.

"I can only say that we are actively operating the team's transfer and continuing to strengthen the overall strength of the team based on the problems that the team has exposed so far this season, the team's weaknesses and shortcomings!"

Speaking of this, Yang Huan changed his words, "I also want to reassure all Saints fans that our Southampton will definitely not be the kind of team that is short-lived, and this year's Champions League and league championship will only be the beginning of our success." ”

"I, all our management, all the coaching staff, all the players and staff, we all have a lot of confidence and determination in Southampton and we don't live on the laurels of the past!"

"Even, I can say now, what Champions League title, what league title, it's all over!"

"What we have to watch now is the new season, we must continue to maintain our competitiveness in the new season, maintain our core competitiveness in the Premier League, cup competitions and the Champions League, and we must continue to launch a stronger and more powerful impact on more titles and more honors!"

Yang Huan's words were once again applauded by countless Saints fans in the audience.

And many reporters at the scene also captured the meaning of Yang Huan's words, that is, Southampton is going to change!

As is customary, there are two ways to deal with a situation like Southampton, one is like Inter.

The heroes of the large-scale renewal of the contract have lived by the credit book of the past.

But now it's clear what the situation is at Inter Milan.

Another is to actively seek change, boldly break the tactical framework formed by the past team, and adjust the team.

But the latter comes with high risks and high investment.

But it's also normal, because with it! In the process of the Champions League final, Simeone's Atletico Madrid successfully limited Southampton's attack, which is equivalent to teaching all professional coaches in Europe a lesson, telling them to play the Saints in the future, learn from us!

This is quite a dangerous thing for Southampton.

is as strong as Barcelona, after the Grand Slam, the tactics have been figured out, isn't it still crippled?

Not only Barcelona, but also Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid, aren't they all beaten directly in the Champions League after the tactics are understood? Completely lost the pride of the big team and the European champions?

Therefore, there are two options, each with its own pros and cons, depending on how the club chooses.

And judging from Yang Huan's words, it is obvious that the saints have to choose the latter.

Then, judging from Yang Huan's tone, the departure of veterans such as Ibrahimovic and Drogba from the Saints is already a foregone conclusion.

Perhaps, from an emotional point of view, Ibrahimovic has just brought the first Champions League title in the club's history to the Saints, and it is indeed unreasonable to turn around and sell him, and may even be unacceptable to many fans.

But from a rational point of view, from the point of view of the club operator, such an operation is reasonable and should be.

Selling Zlatan Ibrahimovic and overturning Southampton's attacking patterns and routines over the past four years and re-establishing a whole new attacking squad will undoubtedly shatter and overturn everyone's perception of the Saints this season.

In the new season, Atletico Madrid's tactics against Southampton will still work, who knows?

And to some extent, Ibrahimovic's salary is too high and he is older, and in the case that Suarez and Sturridge have been eye-catching for a season and there is no problem with succession, keeping the Swedish center will only exacerbate the hidden dangers and contradictions in the dressing room, so it is better to sell him altogether.

Judging by the performance in the Premier League, with Suarez for Ibrahimovic, Southampton will become more dynamic and sharper in attack.

It's just that the lack of Ibrahimovic's shock and dominance in the front field, replaced by a striker like Suarez, how to adjust the tactics of Southampton's entire midfield, and even the consequent changes and changes in players, are all things that the coaching staff should carefully consider.

But, at least there is nothing wrong in the general direction!

From Yang Huan's sentence that he will never live by the credit book of the past, it can be seen that his youth, enthusiasm and sharpness are all determining the future development direction of Southampton.

It's just that, who knows, how he, and the entire management team of the Saints, will run this transfer?
