897 Birth of the Most Expensive Centre-Back in History
4,500 euros!
In the end, Barcelona and Leeds United reached an agreement!
Barcelona have been linked with a move to Leeds United for 45 million euros for centre-back Steven Gerrard Pique.
The same day, Leeds United and Barcelona’s official website updated the news.
Instantly, the entire world was shocked!
45 million euros, the world’s most expensive centre-back! Gerard Peeker is the number one centre-back.
This was truly too shocking!
Of course, a lot of people don’t think the deal is worth it. Although Gerard Pique is very powerful, he has already won the Premier League three consecutive titles with Leeds United at such a young age and even won the UEFA Cup. His strength is not ordinary, but it is not worth 45 million euros.
Forty-five million is enough to buy two strong strikers, but it’s a huge loss to have only one Gerald Peeker.
Of course, there were a lot of people who supported the deal. They thought it was a very good deal.
Steven Gerrard Pique is, after all, the main defender in the Premier League for three consecutive Premier League titles and has won the title every year for the past four years at Leeds United. This shows the strength of Gerard Peeker, the Leeds United defensive leader, who deserves the price.
Think about Rio Ferdinand, think about Pepe, think about Danny Alves, who can compare to Gerard Peeker in terms of team performance?
Why can’t Gerard Peeker even be worth 45 million euros when all those defenders were so valuable back then?
Therefore, there were quite a few people who supported the deal.
And the Barcelona fans are very satisfied. Seeing La Marcia’s child Gerald Peeker perform very, very well at Leeds United, they have long hoped that Gerard Peeker can return to Barcelona!
Now that they had fulfilled their wish, they were naturally very excited.
Leeds United fans were caught in a brief panic. In their eyes, Gerard Pique was an indispensable anchor in their Leeds defence. How could Leeds United sell them?
What about Leeds United’s defence after the sale of Gerard Pique?
After the sale of Steven Gerrard Pique, Kompani was the only centre-back left at Leeds United. Ivanovic, Gary Cahill, Matz Hummels and Jerome Boateng. Me, David Lewis and the others on loan!
With this number, everyone suddenly felt that Leeds United’s defensive line was inaccurate.
Look at how many people there are in Leeds United’s centre-back position, and they are all very strong, especially Compani. This was on par with Gerard Peeker, and Gary Cahill and Ivanovic’s strength was extraordinary!
At this time, some Leeds United fans have figured out why there have always been so many players in the centre-back position, and even a little overstaffed. Originally, Zhong Cheng had been preparing for Gerald Pick’s departure from the left, but now that Gerald Pick’s departure would not affect the integrity of Leeds United’s defensive line.
At this moment, these Leeds United fans were filled with admiration for Zhong Cheng!
Leeds United are also very strong at centre-backs, especially Compani. He could replace Steven Gerrard Peeker as Leeds United’s new defensive leader!
Hence, after seeing this, the Leeds United fans did not panic. Instead, they felt that the Leeds United deal was doing very well, with the style of their Leeds United team.
A centre-back actually sold for 45 million euros, becoming the world’s champion centre-back!
Leeds United fans are really impressed!
Alex Ferguson and Ars è ne Wenger are itching to see this because Steven Gerrard Pique is a player they once valued. Alex Ferguson, in particular, has sent Gerrard Pique to Manchester to sign for Manchester United. Halfway through, he killed Zhong Cheng and cut off his beard.
This f*cking beard cut off 45 million euros and three Premier League titles!
Alex Ferguson doesn’t feel heartache. It’s fake!
Damn madman Roja, this daddy and you are sworn enemies!
–Division Line–
Black shop, Leeds United is really a black shop, a super black shop!
Over the years, the players sold by Leeds United were very expensive, and the price they paid for the players they brought in was very small. Many of them even paid visa-free and symbolic fees. Their most expensive offer was Watkin.
Joaquin spent more than 20 million euros on Leeds United!
This was the most expensive deal for Leeds United, but Watkin’s performance was excellent. These two seasons, he was the Leeds United’s main right-back and the team’s assisting ace.
However, at this time, Hua Jin made a request to Zhong Cheng for a transfer!
Perhaps he saw Gerrard Peeker leave, and with the club’s players in a state of flux, there were many who wanted to leave and felt Leeds United were on the verge of collapse. Or perhaps he feels that staying at Leeds United is not going to win the Champions League, he doesn’t want to stay any longer, he wants to pursue a higher glory. Or perhaps someone showed him a new contract that he couldn’t refuse at a sky-high price, so he had to leave first.
This was beyond Zhong Cheng’s expectations. Hua Jin actually wanted to leave.
However, Luca Tony had already left, and Zhong Cheng did not think Watkin was that important. Most importantly, of course, Zhong Cheng feels that Cristiano Ronaldo should be joining Leeds United. When Cristiano Ronaldo arrives at Leeds United, Joaquin will have to step aside. Letting Hua Jin step aside was not an easy task. After all, Hua Jin had performed very well.
Now that Hua Jin had taken the initiative to move to Daigo, Zhong Cheng felt that it would save him a little trouble.
Zhong Cheng asked Hua Jin about the teams he wanted to bring in. Zhong Cheng took a look. There are Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
However, Barcelona and Real Madrid are not so keen on Joaquin. Leeds United are going to charge a very high price, and the two clubs are not happy about it.
Actually, right now, the most desirable thing for Joaquin is undoubtedly Bayern Munich.
In the first two seasons they had been chasing Frank Ribery like crazy, wanting a winger, but they had not found him and are now vacant.
And with Luca Toni joining their team this season, they are naturally hoping to bring Luca Toni’s best partner Joaquin to Bayern Munich.
Luca Toni and Joaquin are Real partners at Leeds United, with 80 percent of Luca Toni’s goals coming from Joaquin’s assists, which occasionally shows how important Joaquin is to Luca Toni.
Moreover, Hua Jin was also famous as a young man, and many teams were eyeing him covetously!
Bayern Munich are keen to sign Joaquin. Their initial offer to Leeds United was 30 million euros!
After all, Leeds United had spent more than 2,000 euros on Watkin back then. In the past two years, Watkin’s stats had risen, and its ability and foundation had risen. Now, it was one of the hottest right-wing vanguards in football. It would be inexcusable if they were to return more than 20 million euros.
Obviously, Bayern Munich’s tentative offer was instantly rejected by Leeds United.
In the words of Leeds United, we bought 45 million euros for a central defender. How could Joaquin, our main right-back and one of the assists, only have 30 million euros? Are you fucking crazy?
In this era, the value of the front-court players is obviously much higher than the same level of backcourt players, attacking players are more valuable than defending players-this is the golden rule of football.
So even Gerald Peeker could sell for 45 million euros, and Watkin would definitely be worth more.
The current Hua Jin was only 27 years old, and he was still in the ascending stage, not reaching his peak yet. So this time the attacker matures to the peak of the period, this time the player’s worth should be the peak of his career.
Therefore, Watkin’s status should definitely be higher than Gerald Peeker’s!
Hearing this, the faces of the Bayern Munich people were as black as the bottom of a pot, but they were determined to obtain Watkin. But they don’t have that much money. Their idea is to use players and cash in exchange for Watkin.
To tell the truth, Zhong Cheng was very optimistic about this method.
Bayern Munich are big players in the Bundesliga and their youth training is very good. Especially now, it is time for the German youth players to burst into frenzy. At this time. If Zhong Cheng could take away a group of German demons, that would be a good thing.
However, this matter was still a bit troublesome to implement. Zhong Cheng wanted to see who in the Bayern Munich squad could enter his eyes.
Leeds United have been talking to Bayern Munich about this.
At this moment, Manchester United seemed to have been involved in Joaquin’s affair. Alex Ferguson wrote back to Zhong Cheng asking him to trade Frank Ribery and Joaquin for Cristiano Ronaldo!
When he heard Alex Ferguson’s reply, he really thought that Alex Ferguson was crazy.
If Cristiano Ronaldo is really worth 80 million pounds, Frank Ribery is worth at least 65 million pounds and Joaquin is worth at least 40 million pounds. It’s not worth it to trade Frank Ribery and Joaquin for Cristiano Ronaldo!
Of course, Zhong Cheng knew how formidable Cristiano Ronaldo would be in the future. Even if this was the case, Leeds United would not lose.
But under the circumstances, Leeds United are still losing money.
Zhong Cheng is able to use Franck Ribery plus another player to trade for Cristiano Ronaldo, why would he want to get a Watkin?
Therefore, Zhong Cheng directly rejected Alex Ferguson, claiming that Watkin would not join the deal. Only Franck Ribery would participate in the deal, and then Leeds United would add a portion of the cash in exchange for Cristiano Ronaldo.
Alex Ferguson also knows it’s a bit tough, so he claims to be considering it.
