, Rome, Leonardo da Vinci Airport

This should be Yang Cheng's first time when he went out to dress up as a star!

In the bitter winter, he put on an Armani black trench coat, a cold-proof cotton hat on his head, and a large black sunglasses in front of his eyes, covering most of his face.

At this moment, anyone who sees him, even if he is familiar with it, will only recognize it for a long time, so at the crowded Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, no one will find out that the head coach of Inter Milan has come to Rome.

Facchetti also made a certain degree of disguise, after all, this secret negotiation focuses on the word secret!

Out of the airport, there was already Kragnoti's assistant waiting in the parking lot, and after encountering it, he was immediately pulled by this assistant to the hotel they had already prepared, and Yang Cheng and Fachetti each stayed in one room.

By the time Yang Cheng and the others had cleaned up, Cranioti had finally found time to come over.

Craniotti also brought two assistants, one of whom was to receive them, and the other seemed to be a lawyer.

The five of them sat down on the sofa in the living room of Yang Cheng's room.

… Mr. Yang Cheng, I really didn't expect you to come and talk in person! "Craniotti still admires Yang Cheng, the Chinese can lead Kaiserslautern to the treble, and this season by leading Inter Milan to perform so well, the strength is definitely there.

For this kind of strong, and at the same time can be called a new superstar in the field of head coaching, Craniotti still gives the least respect, after all, no one knows if there will be a chance to cooperate in the future.

… Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Craniotti! Yang Cheng smiled and shook hands with him.

As soon as the assistant next to him sat down, the bespectacled lawyer spoke,,... The main purpose of this meeting is to talk about Nesta, and I am sure Inter Milan are already aware of the current situation. ”

Facchetti nodded, "We are very interested in this, we have always liked to negotiate directly, we have been hoping to get Nesta for a long time, I don't know what price Lazio is willing to transfer?" ”

The lawyer smiled and glanced at Kragnotti, "Five forty thousand dollars!" ”

Fachetti was stunned, isn't this a clear blackmail?

… That's impossible! We can only give the red mouth 10,000 dollars at most! ”

… Mr. Facchetti, we all know Nesta's quality very well, and if it weren't for Nesta doing something out of the ordinary and angering the management, we wouldn't have considered selling, for such a Lazio banner player, this price is not excessive! "The glasses lawyer is very indifferent.

Facchetti was speechless, when Inter Milan wanted to buy Nesta before, Lazio really refused to let go, even if he couldn't pay more price, and now the other party at least gave him a chance to negotiate.

… I hope Mr. Craniotti understands a little! Yang Cheng smiled when Facchetti couldn't resist,... Now we are the ones who have the initiative in the negotiations! ”

… How so? Craniotti asked with a calm smile.

… First of all, Nesta has not relented on the issue of contract renewal, if I am not mistaken, he should be waiting for the club's management to answer the ticket question, he wants to use the renewal as a bargaining chip, of course, I have no doubt about his loyalty to Lazio, and his sincerity in renewing his contract, the salary gap will certainly not be a problem. ”

Speaking of which, Yang Cheng looked at Craniotti, the real problem is that Lazio can't tolerate such a player! ”

This is indeed a very sensitive issue, if Craniotti agrees not to increase the price of tickets, then it is equivalent to announcing that he has lost to Nesta, and Nesta, a native flag player, will definitely get more support and support from fans, and his influence and prestige will even overshadow Craniotti at that time.

Foreigners and Chinese are the same ... The master of high power and earthquake has been there since ancient times, and it is the same at home and abroad!

… Second, Nesta has one and a half years left on his contract, and I certainly believe that Nesta will renew his contract, but what if? ”

Although Cragnotti was still not shocked on the surface, he had to admit in his heart that the two points that Yang Cheng said hit the nail on the head of Lazio. ,

One of the things Nesta did most wrong was that he made a big show to support the fans and coerce the club!

… Thirdly, I hope Mr. Craniotti thinks about it, Rivaldo has a hard time at Barcelona, but Van Gaal is also having a bad time at Barcelona, next year is the presidential election, although it is very likely that Nunez will continue to be elected, but what if? I've heard that someone is going to run against him! ”

Gaspar was elected by defeating Nunez in next year's presidential election, and next year, Figo will switch to arch-rivals Real Madrid with a contract buyout, causing shocks around the world.

The reason why Yang Cheng wants to say this is mainly to remind Craniotti that it is not easy to find and not easy to dig superstars in the world, and now he has the opportunity to poach Rivaldo, that is because Nunez and Van Gaal are unhappy with the Brazilians, but in case Nunez steps down and Van Gaal leaves, the new chairman and new coach will have a completely different attitude.

In this case, the best thing for Lazio to get Rivaldo is to do it as soon as possible!

Craniotti had to admit that what Yang Cheng said was very correct and to the point.

Who is one of the top superstars in football today?

Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Denilson, Robert Baggio, Zidane ...... "What else?

Batistuta, Rumin Costa, Crespo, Nedved, Piero, Raul and other players can only be considered superstars, not the top.

And look at these top superstars, how many can be poached?

Yang Cheng's words also reminded Cragnotti that he could wait for Nesta, but Lazio couldn't afford to wait for Rivaldo.

Why?

Judging from Inter Milan's central defenders, Bergomi has been selected for the best team of the round many times this season, and Blanco's performance is also very good and steady.

Because of this, Inter Milan's need for Nesta is not so urgent!

But Lazio is not, Nesta provokes Cragnoti's authority and must be dealt with, and no matter what is done, Cragnoti will have a hard time to start, and then Rivaldo can't afford to wait that long.

In contrast, Inter Milan did have the initiative in the negotiations!

Yang Cheng guessed that this is why Juventus obviously wanted to get Nesta, but they insisted on negotiating for several months, so that in the end, it failed.

… I have to say, Mr. Yang Cheng, you are very right! Craniotti smiled and stood up,... Let's leave it at it today, we'll think about Inter's offer and we'll talk about it tomorrow! ”

After finishing speaking, Craniotti asked Yang Cheng and them to stay here with peace of mind, without being disturbed by reporters, and then he left with his assistant.

… This guy will definitely be tempted, but he won't accept the price of 10,000 dollars! After sending Kraniotti away, Yang Cheng and Fachetti sat down to talk about the harvest.

… We have to boil him up first, let him see the situation clearly, it is better to make him anxious, and then raise the offer in one go, directly kill it, and sign an agreement to let this transfer be completed in the summer of 2000! After watching Craniotti's performance, Yang Cheng became more and more confident in the negotiations.

… Oh, by the way, Giacento, you asked the city newspaper reporter to publish a total of news, just say that VC Milan is also eyeing Rivaldo, and at the same time is ready to pay a transfer fee of $60 million for Rivaldo, it is better to find a little evidence! Yang Cheng smiled very treacherously and instigated.

Facchetti is an honest man, and he was stunned at first... But he soon understood that this was to create pressure on Lazio, so he immediately nodded in agreement and immediately returned to his room to make arrangements.

Over the next two or three days, the negotiation duo of Yang Cheng and Fachetti made frequent contact with Craniotti and his assistants, and the progress of the negotiations remained unhurried.

But the outside world broke out a series of exciting news, which brought a lot of excitement and scandals to the winter transfer.

The biggest revelation is, of course, from the Italian media hype about Rivaldo's transfer, VC Milan and Lazio will be in an all-out arms race, and Zaccheroni is rumored to want to get Rivaldo, so that Rivaldo and Shevchenko form a coveted powerful forward combination against Inter Milan's golden trident in the first half. ,

This transfer was rumored to be the same as the real thing, and even a reporter photographed Galliani appearing in Barcelona, which was directly understood as going to the top management of Barcelona to discuss Rivaldo's transfer, and Berlusconi directly took 60 million US dollars!

It is clear that the bald is not happy with the current situation of VC Milan!

Under the hype of Rivaldo's transfer rumors, Inter Milan's secret meeting with Lazio did not attract the slightest attention, but there were rumors from the outside world that Inter Milan had a crush on Manchester United's main central defender, the Netherlands' Dinghaishen Needle Stam.

It is reported that Manchester United have put a price tag of 25 million for the Dutch star, which is also within the acceptable range of Inter Milan.

The outside world generally understands that this is Yang Cheng's last resort to other objects after begging for Nesta for a long time.

If the rumors are just one spreading, then it must not be believed, but the transfer market is like this, one broke the news, many followed, and then the media of the entire football world began to compete for the wind and began to dig deep to report.

At that time, no one can tell whether it is true or false!

After receiving the news, Craniotti's mood did become anxious.

Over the years, he has snatched players from Juventus and VC Milan, and has not been robbed of players by these two teams, and now it is a critical period to win the championship, and it is difficult to guarantee that VC Milan will not really snipe Rivaldo, after all, both teams are desperate to strengthen their forward strength.

Cragnotti's anxiety and Yang Cheng's patience subtly changed the balance of negotiations.

Of course, this does not mean that Yang Cheng can bargain for a lot, Bijing Cragnotti is not a fool or an idiot!

With the team's time to set scratches is coming... Yang Cheng began to put pressure on the negotiations.

On the 5th day, Yang Cheng faced Craniotti and directly shouted out 440,000 US dollars, okay, if it doesn't work, it's!

Craniotti was bluffed by Yang Cheng's sudden, $10,000 price increase, and after thinking about it on the spot for a while, he finally agreed to Yang Cheng's offer, and Nesta would switch to Inter Milan at the first day price of $40,000 in the world.

This transfer surpassed Denilson and Veron to become the first price in football today, and it was created by a central defender, which is even more unbelievable!

Yang Cheng's negotiation tactics are similar to auctions, and the price can indeed be scaremongered off by a sudden surge, and then when he negotiated the details with Craniotti, Craniotti offered to finalize the transfer time in the summer.

This should also be the consideration of Craniotti's psychological acceptance of Lazio fans, Yang Cheng was crazy but reluctantly agreed, and only paid a small deposit, saying that the transfer fee would be paid in the summer.

People come to pay, it's a simple truth, and Craniotti has no objection.

According to Yang Cheng's guess, after getting the blank check of 40 million US dollars, he will definitely negotiate with Barcelona non-stop Rivaldo, and then finalize the transfer time in the summer, and then use Nesta's money to buy Rivaldo, and maybe even buy more players.

But none of this has anything to do with Yang Cheng and Inter Milan, because Yang Cheng got what he wanted.

A transfer agreement with liquidated damages of up to 80 million US dollars, once Nesta refuses to transfer to Inter Milan, then Lazio will have to pay Inter Milan this liquidated damages, which is tantamount to pushing Craniotti into a dead end, not selling!

After getting Lazio's transfer agreement for Nesta, Yang Cheng immediately returned to Milan City.

Sure enough, after reaching an agreement with Inter Milan, Cragnotti immediately sent a representative to Barcelona the next day to negotiate the transfer of Rivaldo with Barcelona, and said in a high-profile manner that Lazio would definitely bring in Rivaldo!

Naturally, Cragnotti's move provoked a positive response from many Lazio fans, after all, most fans did not know that their captain would switch to Inter Milan in the summer.

However, Lazio's punishment for Nesta came out quickly, that is, internal suspensions and fines, and Nesta reacted violently, but due to the impact of the rush to buy Rivaldo, Lazio fans did not react much to the fine, and Cragnotti escaped the disaster. ,

After Yang Cheng collected jade in the team, he did not linger too much in the transfer market, but calmed down to prepare for the team.

After a week of rest, the physical condition of the players suddenly came to a halt, and the state will inevitably be affected.

Tim Hank and Kerry Schmidt have teamed up to develop a post-winter break training plan to get the players back in shape.

On January 6, the team played away against Bari.

This is Inter Milan's first game after the winter break, and it is an away game, so Yang Cheng is naturally cautious.

Inter Milan's away tactics are still based on stability, Buffon is still the main goalkeeper, Zambrotta, Blanco, Lucio and Panucci form the backline, the three midfielders are Nedved, Emerson and Simeone, and the front trident is Baggio, Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy.

This can be said to be the strongest main lineup of Inter Milan, and it can also be seen that Yang Cheng attaches great importance to this game.

The first half of the game went well, with Inter Milan firmly in control of the game, and Bari was inferior to Inter in terms of overall strength, so the game was quickly incorporated into Inter's own rhythm.

In the first minute of the first half, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ronaldo cooperated in the front court, and the increasingly skillful tacit understanding between the two allowed them to carry out a continuous two-by-one cooperation under the attack of the opponent's defensive line, and finally Ruud van Nistelrooy entered the penalty area and calmly scored the ball, 0:1

Inter Milan looked more imposing after the goal, especially in terms of control of the game, and Barry was at an all-round disadvantage.

In the first minute, Baggio got away with a beautiful break at the edge of the penalty area, pretended to hit the goal after turning, deceived the attention of the defenders, and then made a low cross to the penalty area, Vanney volleyed, and was calmly blocked by the goalkeeper, but Ronaldo calmly made up for the shot at the critical moment, and the score exceeded again for Inter Milan, 0:2

With a two-goal lead, Inter went into half-time.

Yang Cheng was pleased with the team's performance, especially in the front trident combination and the control of the midfield, the players did an impeccable job, and he encouraged the players to continue to show themselves in the second half.

After the break, Bari's head coach Jugni Fachetti made adjustments, the manager known for his iron fist has been very strict in Bari's defense, Lazio has failed to break Bari's goal in this stadium, VC Milan and Juventus have also suffered draws here, you can imagine how difficult it is for Bari to play at home.

Yang Cheng also expected the difficulty of the game, so he gave the players patience, and Inter Milan, who had two goals in hand, could completely exhaust the game time.

But when the game reached the 53rd minute, Yugni's ghost Fachetti took the lead and couldn't wait to make substitutions, this time he replaced the "number Masinga" with the number of "Couple".

Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines and watched Barry's substitution, especially the old number, which felt a little familiar.

It was obviously a young player, standing on the sidelines waiting for a replacement, still adjusting his crotch, and one hand simply reached in to drum, making the on-site commentators ridicule.

… I guess his guy is bigger, I don't know where to put it! ”

But when the stadium radio broadcast came out, Yang Cheng immediately shook his head and smiled.

...**Ah, isn't this the god of Casanoca? ”

For the predecessor of Balotelli in his previous life, Yang Cheng felt both funny and regretful, he was indeed talented, but he was miserable, whoever was his head coach was really bad for eight lifetimes!

This is Cassano's first appearance in Serie A in his career, Yang Cheng feels that he is very honored to take Cassano's first time, but he still asked his players to be careful, this kid may have a problem with his brain, but his skills are speechless!
