The Young Lion - Chapter 1181
Needless to say, in 2006, the world’s first goalkeepers were Buffon, Casillas, Kahn, Renner, and Van der Sar, and they could not be compared with Buffon in the goalkeeper’s comprehensive score data.
Millwall has always been very popular in the transfer market, which is very consistent with the style of Audridge.
In only half a day, they opened the door of Juventus and could talk to Buffon.
Before that, Buffon was not in a hurry to meet Millwall’s representative. He talked with his agent Martina at home.
“Really? The people of Millwall came to Turin, hoping to buy me?”
Buffon asked his agent with uncertain tone.
Martina nodded in excitement, and said in a deep voice: “To be sure, Juventus has agreed to a transfer price of 35 million euros, which is already much higher than their psychological price. AC Milan only had to They will agree for about 25 million euros, but they need Abbiati, who was rented last season, to stay in Turin to replace you, but now, with 35 million euros, they can re-find a goalkeeper, no need Make troublesome transactions with AC Milan.”
“is it?”
Buffon lowered his head and murmured.
He actually made plans to transfer. Juventus and AC Milan’s “Holy League” deal seems to have come to fruition. Abbiati, who rented the team from AC Milan last season, was because he was injured. In the absence and representing the team as the main goalkeeper, the league and the Champions League, he played only 22 times last season.
“Is the news real? Millwall’s coach is here too?”
Buffono understood how the club had changed his transfer operation, and his expression was a little bit excited.
Millwall!
Seven Champions League titles in the past 9 seasons!
Martina said cheerfully: “Of course it is true! He will come here to show that he attaches great importance to you! Rest assured, everything is true! The best goalkeeper in the world, the best head coach in the world, The strongest club in the world, this is the most wonderful combination!”
Buffon grinned silently, then frowned again, saying: “But I heard David talk about the head coach, he said that Audrey Hall is very good to the players, he would not let me go to the bench Right? Palyuka has just retired and Millwall goalkeeper is missing.”
Martina waved his hand almost and wanted to dance in place. He smiled and said: “Don’t be stupid! Aldrich Hall is not a fool. Who are you? Buffon! World champion goalkeeper, Millwall’s main force Who is the goalkeeper? Bout! He is the third goalkeeper of the German team in the World Cup. Buy you back to replace Bout? How is it possible? Millwall is well-known in the transfer market for a good budget, spending 35 million euros Buy a substitute? I’d rather believe that the world will be destroyed tomorrow! Be prepared, you will wear a Millwall jersey, and you will travel from Italy to London together with Aldrich Hall, this will definitely be a A great transfer, like Aldrich Hall personally brought Nesta to England from Italy four years ago!”
Buffon lowered his head and smiled, saying that not being excited was fake.
Especially in this “telephone door” incident, he also encountered accusations, but it has nothing to do with manipulating the game, but gambling. As for whether he has wagered his team to influence the results, it is impossible to know.
Buffon didn’t speak with a smile, but his agent was so excited that he talked more and more.
“The World Cup champion goalkeeper, the world’s first goalkeeper, this is not enough, you will be the big hit of the annual Golden Globe Awards! Look, Cannavaro is smart and rushed directly into the arms of Real Madrid. If you stay in Juventus, it will be behind him in the competition, God, it is unimaginable, the Italian second division, that will make you completely disappear in the public’s vision, go to Millwall, it will make you more dazzling, Even more glorious! If Mill Walken builds momentum for you, do you know what will happen? You will be the second goalkeeper to win the Golden Globe after Yasin! This is great! Yes, I must be with Mill Wall added this condition to the negotiations and got their commitment, fully supporting you to impact the Golden Globe Award!”
Buffon’s wide-eyed expression looked shocked.
It is true that after Italy won the World Cup, there was a voice in the media to talk about Italian players to win the Golden Globe.
However, Italy’s defense is the key, so the eyes of the outside world are focused on Buffon and Cannavaro.
Originally, if Nesta did not miss the knockout due to injury, if he can win the championship with the team as the mainstay of the whole process, with the prestige accumulated in Millwall in these years, the 30-year-old Nesta will win the Golden Globe. Higher than Cannavaro and Buffon, and will open a clear gap.
But Nesta was injured and didn’t play in the knockout. Materazzi performed very well, but Zidane’s one was on the contrary. Materazzi became a wicked man. He suspected that he had insulting words to provoke Zidane. This makes Materazzi become a lot of fans, and the enemy of the media, after all, the media also have a position, such as the French media!
Cannavaro went to Real Madrid. When Juventus fell during this period, his attention in Real Madrid will not be affected, and it will even improve compared to Serie A, which will be selected in the Golden Globe Awards. Brush a lot of impression points.
Buffon hadn’t thought of this, but his agent thought of it!
So this strengthened his determination to travel to Millwall!
Aldridge participated in the meeting between the club’s negotiating team and Buffon.
Both sides are very enthusiastic. After entering the theme, Buffon’s agent made three requirements.
The first is the guarantee of the main position.
If Millwall does not give the main position, Buffon will certainly not transfer.
At this point Aldrich made a promise in person, telling Buffon openly that he would be Millwall’s main goalkeeper.
Although Buffon was curious how Aldridge persuaded Bute to be willing to play the bench, but since Aldrich had promised in person, he was relieved.
As an outsider, it is impossible to understand the situation within the Millwall team.
The continuous high-level battles for many years will bring mental fatigue to the players. Secondly, the players’ aggressiveness will also decline when they return to full load for consecutive seasons, and they will inevitably have a rest or the idea of stopping.
Therefore, Aldridge is always providing fresh blood to the team and accelerating the metabolism.
The second point is contract treatment.
Millwall is also very generous in this regard.
They want to buy the goalkeeper with the global strength first, the peak state, and the age of the year they were playing. The treatment gave Buffon the highest level in the goalkeeper field in the world. It is not a humiliation of his name, but also a Millwall. Embodiment of sincerity.
The third point is to hope that Millwall will support Buffon’s Golden Globe at the end of the competition.
Aldridge didn’t agree.
He made some considerations.
With Millwall’s dominance in Europe, many players on the team are popular candidates for the Golden Globe Awards, and for many years in a row.
However, Henry’s performance has declined last season, and there are not many stunning and beautiful performances in the World Cup, and they lost directly to Italy.
Ronaldinho is even worse. The “chaos” of Brazil’s performance is much lower than the expectations of the outside world. Furthermore, it is too difficult to win the Golden Globe for the third consecutive year. Taking advantage of the competition year, the judges may be tired. Always choose among those names.
Nesta is missing the best time!
The World Cup’s slightly soy sauce role means that he simply cannot become a hit.
As for other players, either the prestige is insufficient, or they have just been recognized as a superstar, but it coincides with the World Cup year, and the national team is not showing up.
But Aldridge still has a thought in mind: maybe Ronaldo has a chance!
Yes, the Golden Globe Awards are not based on season performance, but on annual performance.
Cristiano Ronaldo performed generally in the first half of last season, but after being awakened by Aldridge, he finally ushered in the second half of the season with an outbreak of heavy accumulation, especially the Champions League final also scored twice, and finally became a lore. In the classics, Portugal won the best ranking in 40 years at the World Cup. Despite being the fourth place, Cristiano Ronaldo can also count.
The only negative factor is: In terms of media momentum, Fleet Street will definitely not support Ronaldo!
It’s been more than half a month since the World Cup ended, and there are still Fleet Street media condemning Ronaldo. Some fans who hate Millwall also took the opportunity to make trouble, besieging Ronaldo’s home in London, insulting, and threatening Ronaldo.
The grudges at the World Cup will take time to fade, but Aldridge does not know how long this time will be.
A month? Two months?
If it is a year, Cristiano Ronaldo is going to win the Golden Globe Awards this year, which is too difficult, so big that he must use the performance of the stadium to fight back the world with the appearance of an absolute strongman when almost everyone is targeting him! Make everyone shut up, eclipsing contemporaries!
For his disciples, Aldridge certainly has an emotional tilt, and Buffon is not his player yet, so at this point, he cannot promise anything.
So Millwall can only use the diplomatic rhetoric to deal with Buffon, meaning roughly, Millwall players get the Golden Globe. Although the club will do public relations work, it will not focus on a certain player. In 2010, Millwall players won the Golden Ball Award, and three teammates were ranked in the first, second, and third places. If Millwall officials can’t keep their players as fair as possible, this will make the players unhappy and will be disappointed with the team. Internal solidarity is very detrimental.
In the end, after a short period of negotiation, Buffon also made concessions. After all, they proposed three conditions. Millwall’s first two promised very happily, and the last one was not rejected.
In itself, Buffon’s joining Millwall is a good momentum for Buffon’s competition for the Golden Globe Awards!
Staying in Juventus and falling into the second level, how many people will pay attention to Buffon’s competitive performance in the next six months?
Oh, only the national team can remind him of it on match day.
