Chapter 205： Episode [205]: The first signing of the new season

Now the 2004-2005 season of the English Premier League has finally come to an end.

In the finals of the upgrade playoffs, Wigan Athletic defeated Ipswich 4-2, and Wigan Athletic's striker combination became the strongest striker combination in the Premier League this season.

In this game, Nathan Ellington scored twice, his team partner Jason Roberts scored a goal and sent an assist, which also performed well. On the other side, Darren Bent was also twice in a row, and his partner Shefki Kuch completed two assists.

The combination of these two forwards is really outstanding, even envious of many Premier League teams.

However, many people believe that these two pairs of forwards are likely to collapse in the new season.

Because at this time, many teams are very interested in the combination of these two forwards, the teams are all teams from the Premier League.

Now, the Premier League's West Bromwich team is pursuing Nathan Ellington, the top scorer in the Premier League this season, and it is said that West Bromwich has now offered £ 3 million to Wigan Athletic Already.

You know, when the Wigan Athletic team introduced Nathan Ellington in the summer of 2002, it cost only 750,000 pounds. It's only three years later, Jason Ellington has already reached 3 million pounds. This The increase is really too objective.

It is said that at this time Wigan Athletic was considering this transfer!

Nathan Ellington's partner Jason Roberts was also chased by several clubs. It is said that the most interested in him is the Blackburn team. They are very optimistic about this forward.

Ipswich's team that looks after Darren Bent is very much, because Darren Bent is young, very young. The teams that want him are Charlton, Tottenham Hotspur, Bolton, Sunderland and so on.

Darren Bent's partner, Shefki Kuch, has also received invitations from many teams, such as Blackburn, Crystal Palace, Bolton and so on.

Anyway, the two teams in the English Champions League are very popular, and many teams hope to introduce these people.

Of course, Huntelaar of Leeds United has received more attention from the team. After all, Huntelaar is the best scorer in the English Premier League this season, scoring 28 goals in a single season. The main thing is that Huntelaar was injured for more than a month. Otherwise, Huntelaar could score more goals.

It is said that at this time, both the Everton and Liverpool fancy the Dutch striker.

Thinking about the offer from Leeds United, I hope to introduce Huntelaar even.

━━━Split line ━━━

Zhong Cheng did receive a call from Everton coach Moyes. He did show Zhong Cheng that he wanted to introduce Huntelaar and Ribery, but Zhong Cheng directly rejected Moyes.

Because Huntelaar and Ribery are the cornerstones of the Leeds United club, this will not be easily sold.

In the new season, Ribery Huntelaar and others are the absolute mainstay of the Leeds United club. Zhong Cheng also wants to use them to impact the Premier League and the UEFA Cup.

Moyes also felt very sorry to learn that the two were not selling.

However, Moyes changed his goal instantly. He quoted Zhong Cheng with Pique and Wilmaren.

Zhong Cheng took a breath of cold air, **** June Fei Xue Moyes. If possible, this guy definitely wants to pack his entire team of Leeds.

Obviously, Zhong Cheng directly rejected Moyes. These people are the absolute core of Leeds United. The main framework. How can Zhong Cheng sell these people?

Zhong Cheng recommended Fraser Richardson and Matthew Kilgalon to Moyes. Obviously, Moyes didn't look down on these people, even he didn't even look down on France's peripheral international Boumsson.

Seeing Zhong Cheng disagree, Moyes didn't fight too hard. But Moyes made the request, and since you rejected our Everton team, you better not agree to send these players to other teams.

Zhong Cheng immediately agreed that he would not sell these players now.

Zhong Cheng now wants to introduce players, Leeds United will play in the Premier League next season, and Leeds should have to strengthen. And next season, Leeds United have the task of the UEFA Cup, Leeds United must introduce players to increase the depth of the bench.

There are relatively few people available at Leeds United Club, and several more will go this summer.

Players like Michael Ricketts are useless in Leeds, he can't play in the Premier League, even more so in the Premier League. And Davis, who is on loan for the winter, is also due to leave. It is said that he will be transferred to Tottenham Hotspur next season.

Now Zhong Cheng has a brief glance. Now the Leeds United Club must introduce at least one rotation center, one or two backs, a front, a wing player and at least one forward.

In other words, the Leeds United Club will need to introduce at least six to seven players in the new season, so that it can cope with the two-line battle of the Premier League and UEFA Cup next season.

Now Zhong Cheng is optimistic about the central defender. He is still optimistic about Serbian and Montenegro central defender Vidic. At this time, Serbia and Montenegro have not disintegrated yet. At this time, the strength of Serbia and Montenegro is still very good, the young Vidic is already the main central defender of Serbia and Montenegro.

In fact, last year, Zhong Cheng liked Vidic, and Vidic was transferring. Zhong Cheng found Vidic, but Vidic rejected Zhong Cheng. He eventually chose Russia's Moscow Spartan team.

Now he was transferred to Russia and played for more than half a season. As soon as he arrived in Moscow, Sparta settled the team's main force. In the 2004 season, he played 12 games and scored two goals. Is extremely robust.

This season, he is now playing 12 games, full-time and full-hearted! Because the Russian League is not a New Year's Eve, the Russian League is now fighting fiercely.

Zhong Cheng remembers clearly that Vidic was officially transferred to Manchester United in January 2006 after playing in the Russian Premier League in the 2005 season.

Zhong Cheng wanted to start early this summer and bring Vidic to Leeds.

Zhong Cheng issued a quotation to the Moscow Spartan team, hoping to introduce Vidic. However, it was directly rejected by the Moscow Spartan team, claiming that Vidic would not go to Leeds United.

This makes Zhong Cheng a bit angry, why do you say that?

Later, Zhong Cheng learned that the Manchester United team had already become interested in Vidic and had already made an inquiry. Manchester United also want to take Vidic away this summer, but Moscow Sparta did not agree with Vidic leaving this summer. They want Vidic to leave after playing this season's Russian Premier League. .

Yes, now the three parties of Moscow Sparta, Manchester United and Vidic have initially reached an agreement. On January 1, 2006, Vidic was transferred to Manchester United.

Zhong Cheng also learned that Manchester United's transfer fee to Vidic was £ 7 million!

Upon hearing this news, Zhong Cheng was speechless looking at the heavens, Pique's best partner went so far, it's a pity!

━━━Split line ━━━

After eating behind closed doors at Vidic, Zhong Cheng turned to Ipswich's head coach, Joe Royle, for a long time to make a successful transfer to soothe his injured heart.

In the English Premier League this season, Zhong Cheng and Joe Royle once made a bet. Whoever can lead the team upgrade can take away a player from the opposing club. At the time, Joe Royle valued Liz United's Ribery, and Zhong Cheng looked after Darren Bent in their team.

Now Zhong Cheng successfully led the Leeds United team to upgrade successfully, while Ipswich lost to Wigan Athletic in the upgrade playoff finals.

So it's time for Joe Royle to fulfill his promise.

Joe Royle wasn't the kind of wordless man. Although reluctant to Darren Bent, he agreed to Zhong Cheng. Because Darren Bent player himself also hopes to be able to transfer, because he wants to play in the Premier League.

Darren Bent is a very famous young striker in England. Many Premier League teams have liked him. Ipswich did not advance to the Premier League this season. Joe Royle knew they couldn't keep Darren Bent, so he simply agreed with Zhong Cheng's request for Darren Bent. purchase.

Of course, Joe Royle stated that he agreed with Zhong Cheng's purchase of Darren Bent. But Zhong Cheng's offer must be satisfactory to them, and the players need Zhong Cheng to get it on their own.

In Zhong Cheng's memory, Darren Bent did leave Ipswich after this season's failed upgrade and transferred to Charlton for £ 2.5 million. .

Therefore, Zhong Cheng quoted Ipswich 2 million pounds, but did not expect that Joe Royle agreed, and Ipswich also agreed. They signaled that Zhong Cheng could discuss the transfer with Darren Bent, and Zhong Cheng directly asked the club's executive chairman, Trevor Birch, to speak with Darren Bent on behalf of Darren Bent Feel the sincerity of their Leeds United team.

In fact, Leeds are still very attractive, at least compared to Charlton Athletic. Because Leeds United has a UEFA Cup to play in the new season, this is something many Premier League teams have no way to compare.

So when he saw Trevor Birch, Darren Bent agreed without much thought.

Trevor Birch then negotiated his contract with Darren Bent's agent.

Now Darren Bent's salary in Ipswich is not very high, because he is a player coming out from the Ipswich youth team.

Therefore, in the end, Leeds United paid Darren Bent a weekly salary of 17,000 pounds, signed a four-year contract, and the penalty was 18 million pounds.

The weekly salary of 17,000 pounds is already a very good salary, because the top salary of many teams in the Premier League is like this, many Premier League players have less than 10,000 pounds a week.

The minimum salary set by Zhong Cheng for Leeds players in the new season is £ 10,000 per week. Of course, this is definitely not the best and highest salary level in the Premier League, but it is definitely not the worst.

When Darren Bent saw such a contract, he agreed. This contract is already good, and the main thing is that Darren Bent can play the UEFA Cup in the new season, this is what he wants most. And the average age of Leeds United is very low, he should have a lot of opportunities to play in this team.

So Darren Bent agreed to join Leeds United.

Yes, before the transfer door was opened, Zhong Cheng had already won a player. When the transfer door opens, they can announce it to the officials.

After winning Darren Bent, Zhong Cheng's injured heart finally felt much better.
