Chapter 979 I just want to go to the saints!

Southampton beat Arsenal four-to-zero in the Community Shield, which shocked the entire European football world for a while.

Even fans and media around the world were in an uproar.

Could it be that the Saints will complete four consecutive championships in the Premier League?

You know, in the history of English football, no team has ever achieved four consecutive championships.

There were two dynasty teams that were closest to four consecutive championships, one was Liverpool in the 1970s and 1980s. However, at that time, the Reds were always quickly disrupted by their competitors after two consecutive championships or three consecutive championships, and they lost the opportunity to win four consecutive championships.

The other team is Manchester United during the Ferguson era.

But the Red Devils also had only three consecutive championships and no four consecutive championships. They were disrupted by Arsenal and Chelsea one after another.

Now, the Saints have completed three consecutive championships. If they win another league championship, they will create a new history of English football.

Moreover, this season, the Saints are strong and strong, and their strength is outstanding in the Premier League.

Based on the strong last season, although Matic left, he introduced the number one superstar Messi. Just to this point, the Saints' strength this season is a big improvement compared to last season.

Therefore, after the Community Shield ends, the voices about the Saints' four consecutive Premier League titles are overwhelming.

Among the odds offered by betting companies such as William Hill, Being Win, etc., the Saints are ahead of the world, far ahead, and well-deserved as the number one hottest.

However, other Premier League teams are not fuel-efficient.

After Manchester United entered August, the speed of transfer signings has improved considerably.

First, in negotiations with Real Madrid, he announced that he would retain De Gea and promised to renew his contract with a high salary.

In revenge, Real Madrid officially announced the renewal of Ramos.

This also disappointed Red Devils fans, because from the beginning, Ramos never thought of transferring to Manchester United, and he just wanted to use Manchester United to add negotiation chips to his contract renewal.

Therefore, the nickname of the price-raising couplet was fulfilled again.

But this time, the Red Devil is obviously different.

After losing Ramos, Manchester United quickly responded, announcing the introduction of central defender Hummels and organizational midfielder Gundogan from Dortmund for a package price of 60 million pounds.

Gundogan's contract with Dortmund is only one year away, but considering the popularity of European football in the past for organizational midfielders, the outside world's valuation of Gundogan has also reached 30 million euros.

As for Hummels, although he has many injuries, his strength is unquestionable, especially his ability to get and take the ball and take the ball in the back line, which is very suitable for the current mainstream European tactical trends.

In the past few years, Gundogan and Hummels have always been popular in the transfer market. They have liked many teams, but they have not taken a bite yet. The main reason is that they are too expensive.

But this time, Manchester United made up their minds. The package price of 60 million pounds is indeed ruthless and courageous.

After the Red Devils announced that they had won Gundogan and Hummels, the Red Devils fans were in a mess, and they were so excited that they couldn't find North, as if they had completely removed the psychological burden of raising prices.

What is even more exciting is that Manchester United CEO Sandeko, uh, no, it was Ed Woodward who publicly promised at the press conference that Manchester United's signings were not over yet and that outstanding stars would join Manchester United.

"We have said that the transfer budget this summer is 200 million pounds, and we hope to complete the restructuring of the club lineup as soon as possible!"

It can be seen that Manchester United's management is very clear that it is impossible to regain the competitiveness of the Red Devils era by relying solely on small-scale plays. Only by burning money and investing can Manchester United return to the forefront of the Premier League in the shortest time.

Sure enough, after announcing the packaging of Gundogan and Hummels, Manchester United quickly announced another big move.

The official website of the Red Devils once again announced that it would introduce Hamsik from Naples at a high price of 35 million pounds.

This meal once again made the Premier League boil and excited the Red Devils fans.

Hamsik, that's one of the few first-tier stars in the Serie A!

The Red Devils are going to do a big fight!

Hamsik, Herrera, Biglia, Gundogan, and with the team's Alexander and Juan Mata, Manchester United's midfield strength has been steadily improved by a lot.

Head coach Giggs even said confidently in an interview with the media that Manchester United's goal in the new season will be to win the league championship, and hopes to make a difference in the Champions League.

The management also publicly stated that the team will fully support Giggs' coaching, believing that he has the ability to lead Manchester United to success.

Coincidentally, with Manchester United's successive signings, Arsenal is also not to be outdone.

Wenger made it clear at the post-match press conference where the Community Shield was tragically battered by the Saints zero-to-four, that if the team wants to be competitive in the new season of the Premier League, it must strengthen the signings as soon as possible, especially the midfield and wing offensive players.

This is also seen as a warning and pressure from Professor Wenger to Arsenal's management.

As a result, on the third day after Wenger put pressure, Arsenal officially announced that it would introduce a midfield strong aid Lars Bend from Leverkusen for 35 million pounds.

This is a midfield star Wenger has observed for many years. His joining is believed to greatly improve Arsenal's old habit of weak midfield and strengthen the Gunners' midfield hardness.

After announcing the signing of Lars Bend, the Gunners quickly announced another signing, introducing winger Andre Ayyu from the free transfer from Marseille.

The player's performance in the Ligue 1 is impressive. Although he is not well-known among the fans, he has a good reputation in European football and his strength has been recognized. Now that the contract has expired, Arsenal has given a signing fee of 5 million pounds and promised a high salary. This has signed the Ghanaian winger among many competitors including Swansea and Liverpool.

After signing two powerful players in a row, the British Mirror also disclosed that Arsenal is still in the transfer operation, with the goal of Felipe Anderson and Khedira in Inter Milan.

In addition, the French team newspaper reported that the players Wenger really liked were Monaco's midfielder Condobia and the wing killer Towan. It is said that Wenger intends to pack these two French compatriots to the Emirates Stadium.

But the Monaco official quickly denied the rumors, saying that there is no plan to sell players. But in fact, everyone knows that many European teams are staring at Monaco, Inter Milan and Hamburg like wolves.

With Koeman's team shining in the Champions League, it has won the attention of teams across Europe.

Goalkeeper Navas, full-back Digne, Kurzawa, Fabinho and Oliye, central defenders Makinhos and Abdunuer, and even young players Zuma have attracted the covetousness of giant teams including Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Barcelona.

Not to mention the midfielder, Veratti made most European giants, including Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, and most of the European giants. As a result, the Italian midfielder said in an interview with the media, "I just want to go to the Saints!"

It made the European powerful men speechless!

After Biglia's high price transfer to Manchester United, Condobia and Rabiot, both French midfielders, became very popular.

On the front line, Towan, Mitrovic, Fekier and Carrasco also triggered a competition among European giants.

This is true for Monaco, as is Hamburg and Inter Milan.

In the current shortage of talents, these teams under Yang Huan have gathered so many talents, so how can they not arouse the covetousness of European powerful people?

In order to cope with the heavy-hearted poaching of the powerful, let alone the senior executives of Monaco, Inter Milan and Hamburg, even Yang Huan had to travel back and forth between France, Germany and Italy during the end of the Community Shield, and met with the management and players one after another, with the purpose of stabilizing this group of stars.

According to Young Master Huan, if you should renew your contract, you should renew your contract, and if you should raise your salary, you should raise your salary. In any case, you must retain the existing group of players. This good development momentum must not be dispersed.

Yang Huan has no doubt that given the current shortage of outstanding football talents in European football, if he shouts to sell, Monaco, Hamburg and Inter Milan will immediately fall apart the next day.

This group of giant teams will rush up like wolves and tigers, gnawing these three teams until they are not even left.

As Yang Huan said at the Premier League President Summit, today's European football is in an opportunity period of re-dividing power.

Under the impact of capital, whoever can't hold on will be trampled by competitors.

After this round of re-dividing forces has passed, the upstream teams and the middle and lower-stream teams will become more distinct, so Yang Huan naturally wants to do his best to maintain the status of Monaco, Hamburg and Inter Milan in European football.

As for Atletico Madrid, with its outstanding performance in the Champions League in the past two seasons, its competitive strength in La Liga, and the new stadium has officially been put into use this summer, the Bedding Legion has temporarily stabilized its pace.

Let’s look at La Liga. Barcelona is banned from transfers. The team’s own strength has been affected. Real Madrid’s superstar policy has also had problems, which is a bit unstoppable. Moreover, Yang Huan also received vague news. Real Madrid is likely to follow Barcelona and be banned from transfers because of the violation of youth training recruitment.

This undoubtedly gives Atletico Madrid the opportunity to rise strongly!

Therefore, unless the management of the Bedsheets Legion is committed to death, Simeone's team will inevitably rise strongly.

Another important reason for Yang Huan to firmly retain this group of players in the current team is that he is young.

Whether it is Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, Monaco and Hamburg, the average age of the player lineup is still very young and has a bright future. As long as you keep this group of players, these teams will usher in a harvest period of results within two or three years.

In this case, if Yang Huan sells the stars in the team to covet seemingly attractive transfer fees, wouldn’t he destroy the future of these teams and ruin the football empire he has worked hard to build?

How could Young Master Huan do such a stupid thing?

With Yang Huan personally participating and supervising and making decisions, Monaco, Hamburg and Inter Milan, and even Ajax and Benfica have announced that they will retain the players in the team.

This also made Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, many other teams that were intended to poach, return empty-handed. At the same time, Yang Huan also took advantage of this opportunity to demonstrate his determination to the management and the players with practical actions.

But just as the European football summer transfer was about to close and everyone felt almost relieved, Yang Huan suddenly received an undeniable offer.
Chapter completed!
