Real Madrid bought Liverpool star Michael Owen with a transfer fee of 1200 million euros. Once the news was announced by the media, it immediately caused a strong earthquake in European football!

Although Florentino has fulfilled his promise of "one superstar a year" during his election campaign since he took office as the chairman of Real Madrid in 2000, Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo and Baker have been successively replaced in the past four years. Ham and other international superstars have brought them to the Bernabéu, but no one could have imagined that this year Florentino would actually poach Liverpool's pillars, and it was still at a low price of 1200 million euros!

Therefore, with the announcement of this news, the popularity of Real Madrid among the fans has increased again by a large amount, catching up with Fiorentina, who failed in the semi-finals of the Champions League, and becoming the world's highest commercial value and strongest gold-absorbing ability. One of two football clubs!

"Really, if you didn't stop Antonio, how could Irving go to Real Madrid? He would have been a member of our Inter Milan!" Moratti, who was invited by Zhuang Mingge to visit his villa in Florence, watched the TV Holding up the Real Madrid jersey and smiling happily, Irving pretended to be dissatisfied and complained, "Tsk tsk, 800 million pounds (1200 million euros was about 800 million pounds at the time), Real Madrid really took advantage of this time!"

That being said, Moratti did not mean to blame Zhuang Mingge.The two have known each other for so many years, Boss Mo is very aware of how vicious Zhuang Mingge's vision is, so he resolutely stopped when Zhuang Mingge made a move to block it, and did not get involved in Owen's transfer.

"Hehe, Massimo, relax, Irving will regret his decision today sooner or later." Zhuang Mingge smiled and poured Moratti a cup of tea, comforting him, "Although Owen's playing style and technical characteristics are very It is suitable for a team like Inter Milan that focuses on defensive counterattacks, but don’t forget that Owen’s injuries have not stopped since the injury in 1999. Frequent injuries have affected his state and the speed he needs to survive It has had a very serious impact, and once he loses his speed, Irving, who is not solid enough technically, is just an ordinary striker with a lot of experience. Besides, you already have Crespo and Mutu in your team Two first-class forwards, the younger generation and Martins and Caron, and the introduction of big-name stars like Irving will inevitably squeeze the living space of others, which will cause unnecessary conflicts in the locker room."

From Zhuang Mingge's point of view, Owen's choice was really unwise.Among other things, Irving is a well-deserved top scorer in Liverpool and the first choice on the offensive end. Even if the head coach Benitez dislikes Owen, it is impossible to remove him without any injury factors. starting list.And after Real Madrid?In the past, there were two superstars, the alien Ronaldo and the local banner Raul, and the local forces such as Morientes and Portillo were watching. The possibility of a substitute.

"Well, what you said makes some sense." After hearing Zhuang Mingge's explanation, Moratti stopped entangled in this topic, and continued to chat with him about the current transfer trend in European football.

The topic returns to Irving's transfer.After the deal was completed, the Liverpool club, which sold the only first-class star in the team and also the ace of the team's striker, did not receive much criticism and protest from Liverpool fans. On the contrary, Owen himself received more condemnation and criticism.

The reason for this situation is mainly because Owen himself played a really disgraceful role in the process of transferring to Real Madrid.As a star discovered and cultivated by Liverpool, Irving first rejected the club's contract renewal conditions, and then joined forces with Real Madrid to lower the price with only one year left in the contract, causing his old club Liverpool to suffer a big loss in the transfer market.What Owen did this summer really hurt the hearts of Liverpool people.

To be honest, as a star with ideals and pursuits, it is understandable for Irving to transfer to another team for the championship trophy, but when he planned to leave his home team, he also helped Real Madrid to lower the price, and he refused to live. Renewing the contract with Liverpool forced the Red Army to sell the head striker to Real Madrid for a cabbage price of 800 million pounds, which is really unreasonable.

You know, Irving is a two-time Premier League Golden Boot winner. In 2001, he also won a European Golden Globe Award with five championships. It is absolutely impossible for the team to introduce him without spending more than 2000 million euros in real money.However, Real Madrid finally settled the transfer at a price of 1200 million. If there is no pressure from Irving, who would believe it?

Therefore, when Owen put pressure on Liverpool with only one year left in his contract and his refusal to renew the contract, forcing the Red Army executives to agree to Real Madrid's offer of 1200 million euros, his relationship with Liverpool has actually been exhausted.And this has also become a thorn in the hearts of Liverpool fans, and it has blocked Owen's return to Liverpool.

After all, when the team was in financial difficulties, Owen refused to renew his contract and lowered the price with Real Madrid, which caused Liverpool, who were already in financial distress, to suffer a lot of economic losses. As a result, they did not have enough funds to transform the team and could only rely on dismantling The east wall pays the west wall to barely get by... The Liverpool club, which has suffered a lot, will definitely be dissatisfied with Owen.

Owen's transfer was like a starting gun, which completely detonated the European football transfer market in the summer of 04.For example, how could Abramovich, a Russian tycoon who wants to use football to expand his influence, let Real Madrid take the limelight?

So, after a short period of dormancy, Lazio finally made a move in the transfer market: On July 7, Lazio officially announced that they had purchased their main right winger from Fiorentina for a transfer fee of 10 million euros, the Frenchman Ludovi Qi? Jiuli!At the same time, the Blue Eagles also announced that they have introduced Edgar Davis, who played a world-class performance during his loan period in Barcelona, ​​from Juventus for free!

Obviously, Lazio under the control of Abramovich intends to show its talents in the transfer market this summer.This time, their poaching targets are no longer limited to those second-tier clubs. The Blue Eagles, who have played a wonderful season and qualified for the Champions League, already have the confidence to wrestle with those giants.
