    After signing the contract, Dick smiled and shook Adeisler's hand: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

    Adeisler is also very satisfied. Although he spent four million euros in transfer fees, being able to sign Okocha, a former European champion, also improved Bolton's strength a lot. They were almost relegated last season.  , and due to some historical reasons, they are rarely able to buy good players within the Premier League, and they are not attractive enough to attract foreign players in their prime, so they have become the nursing home of the Premier League.

    Although Okocha is not too young, he is only 29 years old now. His performance in Dortmund last season proved that he still has very good performance, so after being offered a contract of three million euros,  Bolton touched Okocha's heart. Although the transfer fee was only four million euros, considering that Okocha was also a contributor to the team's Champions League victory and came on a free transfer, Dick was happy to pay such a price.  accept.

    "To make money, you have to make money, but you can't do anything too well. If you want to take advantage of everything, the final result will probably be to earn nothing."

    Rivaldo and Okocha, two of Dortmund's two free transfer players last season, were sold for 10 million euros, saving 5 million euros in salary space. Dick is very satisfied with these two transactions.

    Dick planned to deal with the matter of Kavinage coldly first. In fact, Dick didn't mind if Kavinage was to keep him. After all, his salary was not high. However, if Kavinage felt that he should get a higher salary,  If the salary is high, it is natural for him to want to leave, but such a young and promising forward will definitely be sold at a high price, so Dick is not in a hurry and allows Cavinaji's agent to toss.

    This transfer alone is certainly not enough for Dick to come to the UK. This time he comes to the UK, and he still has a big deal to do.

    Selling players after winning the championship is certain, but whether he can sell more overpaid players in the team and sell them at a sufficient price requires him to have a cool head. At any time, when he is a seller,  The market is all about bargains. Only by showing a high profile can you sell at a higher price.

    In Dick's mind, Lehmann, who has two years left on his contract, Rosicky, whose salary is higher than the new maximum salary of two million, and Frings and Caviarnagi, who want a salary increase, are all targets for sale.  , these four people, plus Rivaldo and Okocha who have been sold, have a salary of up to 12.7 million euros. If they are all sold, Dortmund's salary expenses will continue to decrease.

    At the same time, after knowing the current situation of the club, as the three veterans and loyalists of the club, Kyle, Vaughns and Dede also signed new contracts. Kyle and Dede both took a symbolic salary cut of 20%.  million euros, their original annual salary of 1.4 million euros was reduced to 1.2 million euros, and the contribution of captain Vaughns was relatively large. His original annual salary was 2.8 million euros.  After Ruyter's salary cut, his salary was second only to Rivaldo's 3 million and Rosicky's 2.9 million. He immediately reduced his salary to half, only taking 140 million.  With a salary of 10,000 euros, the remaining salary of these three people alone has reached 1.8 million. Coupled with the veteran captain Ruyter who chose to retire after the end of this season, Dortmund's salary expenses have been reduced by 300 million again.  Three hundred thousand.

    With a combined salary space of 6 million euros, Dick must introduce suitable players to make up for his strength. After all, six players have been taken away. Even if some of them can be solved by tapping potential from within, they will not be able to recruit them.  It's unjustifiable.

    Now that he has come to the UK, Dick is trying to think of ways to maximize the club's profits in the transfer market - which is also related to his own income.

    After leaving Bolton, he quickly rushed to London.

    "Mr. Dick, I have to say that you have opened your mouth now To be honest, according to the price you offered, we can't accept any of them. Rosicky may be excellent, but he is definitely not worth 20 million pounds."  Winger frowned and said to Dick.

    "Look, I came to London to show my sincerity." Dick spread his hands and said calmly: "You know, Rosicky is only 23 years old, and he has already played and performed like a top player in the world.  , and it is not for one season, it is continuous. Dortmund will not let go of such a core player easily, because he is one of our most important players, just like Arsenal's Vieira Maybe he is now  Not as good as Vieira, but he is younger than Vieira and can maintain a high level for a longer time We are not in a hurry to sell him. He has three years left on his contract, and at his age, he can still  He has performed well for a long time and we need to rebuild the team, so we won't do it for less than this price.Handy.  "

    Wenger looked at Dick, but Dick lit up a cigar calmly.

    He knows that Arsenal will not pay this money. Arsenal is at its poorest now, so he does not expect to sell Rosicky to Arsenal. He is tough on Rosicky, just to be in a better position in the subsequent negotiations.  active position.

    "What about Lehmann? Eight million pounds. At Lehmann's age, we can't possibly spend that much."

    Lehmann is 33 years old this year. As a goalkeeper, he is still in his prime, but he will definitely gradually decline. Last season, he can be said to have reached his peak, especially in the Champions League final.  His performance has made his reputation almost surpass that of Germany's number one goalkeeper Kahn. It is actually very troublesome to sell such a player. The price will not be too high, but it will not be too low either.

    "He was the top goalkeeper in the world last season. Seaman left Arsenal. I know you need a good goalkeeper With Lehmann's current ability, top performance in another four or five years will not be a problem. Eight million pounds  It's not too much," Dick said leisurely.

    "Mr. Dick, what you said really makes me unable to feel your sincerity" Wenger said helplessly.

    "You have to know that it is very difficult to buy a good goalkeeper now. Look at Manchester United. How many goalkeepers did they change after Schmeichel left? None of them are outrageous. There is no doubt about Lehmann's strength. He is also there.  He has played football in Italy and has good mental quality and excellent personal abilities. To be honest, if the price is not enough, we will definitely not be willing to sell him.¡±

    Seeing Dick¡¯s indifferent expression, Wenger could only shake his head helplessly: ¡°I think we still need to think about it for a while.¡±

    "No problem, Mr. Wenger, thank you for your hospitality I will be in the UK recently, just call me if you need anything."

    Dick stood up gracefully and left the Arsenal headquarters.

    When he walked out of the Arsenal headquarters, reporters soon followed him.

    "Mr. Dick, do you have any business in London?"

    "Me? I came to London for vacationI like the city of London very much." Dick replied lightly.

    Although he did not say in the interview that he came to London to trade players, all fools knew that when the transfer window was about to open, Dick came to London for no reason, either to trade players or not.  Damn it.

    And basically any knowledgeable reporter would think that Dick is probably here to sell players, not buy them - Dortmund's current economic situation is still not very good, and the chairman was changed some time ago. Dortmund's main lineup last season  He is not very old, and he is not old enough to need a replacement. Most likely, some club has taken a fancy to Dortmund players and wants to buy their players

    At least after Ferguson heard the news, he judged one thing. There must be a London team that wanted to buy Dortmund players - and whether it was Arsenal or Chelsea, which had just acquired a Russian, it was Manchester United.  enemy!

    Needless to say, Arsenal, after Wenger took over, they have always been Manchester United's biggest enemy. Without Arsenal, Manchester United may have been able to win the Premier League championship, but what about Chelsea?  After Abramovich took over, Chelsea poached Manchester United CEO Kenyon, and then robbed the Irishman Duff, who was about to sign with Manchester United, at a high price and salary. Dortmund performed so well last season, they do have  Several top players, whether they join Arsenal or Chelsea, will have a huge impact on Manchester United.

    So he has to ask - even if he is currently worried about Beckham's transfer.

    "Di, you didn't give me a call when you arrived in the UK, are you embarrassed?"

    Because he was already familiar with Dick, Ferguson spoke more directly when he called. Dick laughed loudly after hearing this: "My Sir, I am in London now If I go to Manchester  If so, I¡¯ll have a drink with you.¡±

    "Di, can you tell me what you went to London to do?" Ferguson was not here to ask this, so he quickly asked directly.

    "Of course I came to London for workArsenal wanted to buy my Lehmann, and Chelsea also took a fancy to Rosicky. They are now fighting with Arsenal. Wenger refused to pay a high price. Of course I won't sell if the price is low.  , It¡¯s hard to find such a good goalkeeper. Besides, I¡¯m not in a hurry to sell. If I sell Lehmann, I¡¯ll have to find another good goalkeeper, which will be a lot of trouble.¡±

    Listen ?Dick said this, and Ferguson laughed in his heart. Of course he knew that Dick was playing tricks, but now Dortmund's players are really in demand

    However, soon after hearing the names Lehmann and Rosicky, Ferguson's heart began to move.

    Manchester United has wanted to buy a good goalkeeper for a long time. Although they have signed American goalkeeper Howard this summer, no one knows how well Howard can perform. Now Manchester United's midfielder has also been seriously poached, and Chelsea is heading towards  Veron launched the offensive, while Real Madrid and Beckham were constantly flirting. The relationship between him and Beckham has been shattered. Veron has never performed well. Manchester United now needs new signings in the midfield.  .

    In other words, Rosicky and Lehmann are also the players that Manchester United needs now!

    Although Manchester United cannot match the upstart Chelsea in terms of financial resources, they still have an advantage compared to Arsenal. If they can intercept Lehmann, it will also be a very important blow to Arsenal - the only headache.  That is, Manchester United has quite a few goalkeepers now. It would be too wasteful to buy two goalkeepers in one summer. But Rosicky, Ferguson feels that he should not let go. He is a versatile player and can play almost all positions in the midfield.  , now that Keane is older and Veron is unreliable, introducing him is at least a good compensation for the midfielder.
