Chapter 1046 - 252: World Footballer of the Year
Compared to billions of euros or even more in returns, San Remo’s club value isn’t actually high after players leave.
Lu Yang wants to come over, just to leave a memento of his football career’s starting point, not to build a club.
If he really wanted to start one, it wouldn’t be an Italian Serie A club; Italian football is declining.
The commercial football hub still needs to be the Premier League.
"So, won’t you be transferring?" Sofia knew about Lu Yang’s career plans; after this season, Lu Yang was definitely leaving San Remo, perhaps even Serie A.
"Of course, I will transfer," Lu Yang said. "Just because the platform is yours doesn’t mean you should stay on it. Doing so would actively shrink your circle."
San Remo belongs only to Italy.
And Italian football is just a fraction of world football.
"San Remo will always be here; it’ll wait for me to return," Lu Yang said while holding Sofia. "Right now, I want to explore more unknown territories."
"By then, I’ll probably be retired too, and I’ll come to accompany you." Sofia kissed Lu Yang tenderly, then realized the meaning of Lu Yang’s exploration as he suddenly leaned against her from behind. "You... hate... this... place... ah..."
For a moment, the room was a whirlwind of passion.
The two started another round of sweetness.
...
Winter transfer window approached, and every team had new issues to resolve.
Expert at San Remo believed they should quickly bring in three or four high-level substitutes to relieve their physical challenges.
But San Remo didn’t respond this way.
They purchased five players during the winter transfer window.
But these players all came from lower league youth.
Their traits were very consistent: all young, immensely talented, performing well in lower leagues or youth teams.
Scratching lottery tickets!
San Remo’s approach is always surprising.
These players were undoubtedly attracted by the "San Remo Miracle" legend.
They all hoped to become part of that legend.
Even if they can’t immediately play in first-team matches, they believe they will become part of a new legend under San Remo’s training.
Look at Lu, look at Morici, how brilliant they are now.
nominees for the Golden Ball Award and 50 nominees for World Footballer of the Year.
That’s the pinnacle of football!
This is the superstition of the "black shop" in football.
Why does the black shop always produce stars?
Because they have produced stars before, big clubs buying from them believe in their "products."
And young players know there are many opportunities here, so they are more willing to join the black shop.
Besides, since they’ve trained a superstar, by analogy, they theoretically could train more. At least, the chance is much higher than teams that haven’t trained superstars.
In this way, the black shop isn’t short of talent or buyers, and business naturally flourishes.
San Remo is now showing signs of becoming a black shop.
Although this shop hasn’t opened yet, everyone knows that day is not far off.
This round of purchases is equivalent to a signal.
San Remo is about to start selling players.
Otherwise, their winter window strategy should be to buy a few skilled veterans to push Serie A further.
Additionally, rumors say Russell Group’s funds aren’t very healthy recently, so the San Remo Supermarket is almost certain.
Thus, this winter window saw several teams contacting San Remo’s players.
Serie A is already halfway through the season, and the Champions League is also halfway done.
San Remo’s players have all passed the test.
They can fully adapt to the planet’s highest-level leagues and tournaments.
Everyone can start preparing their money now.
Lu Yang, Morici, Bai Zhami, Canyes—these players’ agents received over a dozen offers this winter.
Not invitations for a winter window transfer, but to make a face.
In the summer, those people hope to secure the joining of the mentioned players.
No one doesn’t want good players.
Over at Barça, Moreira is completely unable to stay.
Rumor has it that Moreira’s agent is already contacting Premier League teams.
If Barça didn’t have the Champions League, the higher-ups might have banned Moreira within the team.
Both sides are now highly emotional, with Barça accusing Moreira of nightclub visits, declining form, and lateness for training.
Moreira accused Barça of changing heart first; he used to act similarly, but Barça said nothing before?
At this juncture, the Barça new king Mateo, full of hope by both sides, remained silent.
On the surface, he seemed to help neither side.
But actually... this is very unfavorable to Moreira.
It was from this time that Moreira gradually understood.
It turns out, Barça dared to treat him this way because of a dependency he always thought was the most reliable left and right arm.
Over at Real Madrid, the situation was simply terrific, currently top of the La Liga standings, far ahead of second place.
The King’s Cup entered the next round, with a championship-like posture.
Even the Champions League, they sliced through effortlessly into the knockout stage.
Real Madrid fans have good reason to believe this year’s Real Madrid can create a huge miracle!
Sixteenth Brother definitely won’t be the Sixteenth Brother this time.
They are determined to win the championship!
