37 Three Unlucky Eggs (Part I)

With the economic depression in the past few years, Argentines have to face a cruel reality, that is, in this country, no player is not for sale, including Maradona!

When Yang Cheng and Paul Baier arrived in Buenos Aires, it was easy to find Boca Juniors, and then the rest was very simple, Yang Cheng sent Boca Juniors an offer of $1 million to buy Juan Veron, the main midfielder of the opposing team, based on the transfer evaluation in the super coaching system.

At first, Yang Cheng also felt that the offer seemed to be a little lower, according to the evaluation price given by the super coach transfer system, Veron's value was around $1.2 million, but his transfer price was only $950,000, which is indeed a bit unexpected, because if Yang Cheng's memory is correct, Veron's transfer to Sampdoria in Italy after the European Championship should be $3 million.

It's a full 3 times worse here, how can it be so bad?

With this question, Yang Cheng knocked on the side of the officials of Boca Youth, and then from the information vaguely revealed by the latter, combined with the memories of his previous life, he immediately understood a fact.

The world informatization in 1996 is not enough, unlike the 21st century, where the Internet is everywhere and the world is unimpeded, many things in this era are not transparent, just like player transfers, many European clubs buy players in South America, they are directly entrusted to a connected agent, and then observe it for a while after finding it.

There are indeed very few people like Yang Cheng who took the initiative to touch the door.

And this time Yang Cheng's luck is good, Veron's ownership is in Boca Juniors, his father Veron Sr. is a former well-known star in Argentina, was made a wizard, and has a certain influence in the country, so he helped Veron control his ownership early on, and was not tempted by the agent.

If it is replaced by a child from another poor family, and part of the ownership is controlled by the agent, then they don't take the opportunity to open their mouths?

However, this time also made Yang Cheng think of one more thing, that is, in July 1996, Boca Juniors led the team to China to participate in commercial competitions, when a domestic team fell in love with Veron, Boca Juniors bid $1 million to pack Veron and two other players, but was rejected.

Now Yang Cheng offered to send $1 million, and Boca Juniors agreed without hesitation.

"It looks like I've really been wronged once!" Yang Cheng saw the enthusiasm of the young officials of Boca and said with a wry smile.

Of course, the acquisition of Belon at a price of $1 million is indeed very cost-effective, and it can even be said to be a great value!

After reaching a preliminary acquisition awareness with Yang Cheng, the officials of Boca Juniors talked to Yang Cheng about the situation of Boca, hoping that the latter could find a few more players in the Boca team, but Yang Cheng was not too interested, because he was not a human trafficker, he was just a head coach.

Before leaving Boca Juniors, Yang Cheng had already contacted Boca Juniors and made an appointment with Beron and his son to meet and have lunch together, so he immediately took a taxi to the date place after leaving.

The meeting with Veron's father and son went well, Veron is now playing more at Boca Juniors as a right midfielder, if Yang Cheng's memory is correct, he should have been fixed in the middle after Lazio, and he played more on the right side in the early stage, both the club and the national team played this position, and only occasionally he could also play in the middle.

When Yang Cheng met this time, he mentioned the idea of letting Belon play in the middle.

"I've carefully analysed Juan's technical characteristics, his best position is not on the wing, his characteristics are passing, whether it is long or short, he is very good, the long pass is very accurate, the short pass is also very characteristic, the long shot, the free kick and the sense of coordination are good, and he comes from the wing, he has a lot of running range, one or two feet are very good with the ball and long passes."

'That's why I want to get him, I think he's going to be a very important midfield in my team and I'm going to hand over control of the midfield to him and put a lot of responsibility on him!'

Yang Cheng's analysis actually has some views from his previous life, and some information from the data in the super coaching system, so the analysis is the first and the most reasonable.

Old Veron himself used to be an excellent player, and naturally he could hear the truth of Yang Cheng's words, so he believed Yang Cheng's words and felt that this young head coach was not as young and immature as his age showed, but still looked very level.

"But I'm not afraid to be honest, I think there is a very serious flaw in Juan's skills, maybe there is nothing yet, but over time, this flaw may become the biggest bottleneck for him to achieve transformation!"

"Oh? Tell me about it! Old Belon suddenly asked with concern, and Veron was also concerned.

"His ability to get rid of the place is not strong, although it is not bad, but it is really not strong, this point cannot be shown in Argentina, but in Europe, once he encounters some conservative teams, the implementation of key marking, when the time comes, the lack of ability to get rid of the place will limit his development, of course, if his position is retreated a little, this problem can be properly covered, but I think he should overcome this from now on!"

Speaking of which, the old Veron father and son really believe that Yang Cheng has really studied Veron seriously, and he really wants to treat Veron's midfield core, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to understand the strengths and weaknesses of a player so seriously.

"I have two very good technical coaches on my coaching team and I think they can help Juan overcome this problem, and if he can improve his ability to get away from the spot and improve his ability to get the ball in the middle of the pack, he can definitely become the best playmaker in the world!"

Yang Cheng was full of confidence when he said this, because although he is only 21 years old now, his strength has reached 163, and his potential is as high as 190.

"Believe me, joining Kaiserslautern will definitely make a huge difference in your career and in your own personal abilities!" Yang Cheng said very indemvocably.

Belon father and son glanced at each other, obviously both persuaded by Yang Cheng.

At least after Boca Juniors agreed to Yang Cheng's offer, they have little room for manoeuvre, even if the head coach Bilardo is a good friend of the old Veron, and he hopes that Berondo will stay and play for a season or two, but everyone knows that today's Argentine football is about money, not people!

Rather than listening to the agent's verbal promises and waiting for the opportunity to join the slim unknown, it is better to listen to the club's arrangement, follow Yang Cheng, and join Kaiserslautern, although this team is currently relegated to the Bundesliga, but listen to Yang Cheng's meaning, he is very confident to return to the Bundesliga after the new season, and then Veron will have the opportunity to show his skills on the stage of the world's second league.

Moreover, this season's Kaiserslautern can also participate in the European Cup Winners' Cup, which is also a big stage!
