Chapter 837 The first battle (1st monthly ticket)
In his scout report submitted to Aston Villa Club, Abraham admired Wilfred Ndidy very much.
The physical fitness is excellent, the jumping power is amazing, the speed is fast, and the explosive power is amazing.
He strongly advised Aston Villa Club to sign Endidi Jr. right away.
Of course, the purpose of his trip was to sign Endidi, but as a scout, he must improve his scout report and write down his subjective views and judgments, which is a normal procedure.
Wilfred Ndidi is not yet sixteen years old, and she signed a youth contract with Nathaniel Boys Club.
Such contracts have no strict binding force.
Aston Villa could have taken Wilfred Ndidi directly away.
However, FIFA is now beginning to pay attention to protecting the interests of the club.
Therefore, in order to avoid possible troubles, Aston Villa Club took a formal approach and contacted Nathaniel Boys Club. After paying a "very expensive" training fee, he took away the little Endidi.
This is £35,000 more than the training fee.
For Aston Villa, this is a small amount of money that is not worth mentioning, but it is enough to satisfy Nathaniel Boys Club, after all, this is just a 'apprentice' player under the age of sixteen in the youth tier.
In this way, two players in the hands of agent Mr. Lukaka Ndidi, Wilfred Ndidi and Ngolo Kante, joined Aston Villa.
Aston Villa paid a "high" price of 145,000 pounds to get these two players.
Fang Jue was very satisfied with this.
This is also the reason why many teams like to go to Taobao in low-level teams in Africa and Europe. They are of high quality and cheap, and have great future benefits. Of course, whether it is good or not, it requires a test of your eyesight. Most of the time, it is mostly the time to miss it. However, as long as you win a lottery, you can make a lot of money.
Fang Jue did not have this kind of "study" worry, and he was still very confident in his own vision.
...
Aston Villa's official website then announced that the team signed 15-year-old Wilfred Ndidi from the Nathaniel Boys Club in Nigeria, and the young player will enter the Aston Villa's U16 echelon.
Although the winter transfer window has been closed, the signing of youth team players will not be affected or restricted.
The winter transfer in the winter of 2012? The five major European leagues can be said to be deserted? There is no big order that fans expect.
Looking back at last winter, the European transfer market was lively: Torres transferred to Chelsea Aston Villa's Diego Costa then transferred to Liverpool for £50 million with a record Premier League transfer fee.
Aston Villa holds 50 million pounds of transfer income? It costs 25 million pounds and 18 million pounds to transfer, and introduced Modric and Suarez from Ibiza and Ajax respectively.
It can be said that the popularity of the transfer market last winter was no less than that of the summer transfer market.
I never thought that after a year, the trading market in the winter window was so deserted. All the wealthy families "reduced their money" at the same time, and many teams only used loans or introduced new stars to strengthen them.
The most famous of them is that Scholes announced his return and returned to Manchester United.
Arsenal loaned veteran Henry from Red Bull New York.
The media generally speculated that this was influenced by Aston Villa's introduction of veterans and their outstanding performance.
Whether it is Van Nistruei, Barack, Ronaldo or Shevchenko, or Klose this season, after joining Aston Villa, they have made considerable contributions to the team and performed well.
The two largest transfers in the five major leagues, one in and one out, are from Aston Villa.
They first signed Japanese international Shinji Kagawa from Dortmund for £16 million.
Then Albrighton, produced by Aston Villa youth training, joined Newcastle for £10.5 million.
This is also the first time that Aston Villa under Fang Jue has not made any money in the transfer market? Instead, he has a net loss.
When the Sun was taking stock of the 2012 winter transfer market, a sudden burst of news broke out.
When the transfer market was closed near the close, La Liga giants Real Madrid suddenly launched an attack on Aston Villa's star, the new FIFA Golden Baller Mr. Gareth Bale.
According to the Sun's revelation, Real Madrid's offer once reached 65 million pounds.
However, because the transfer market is approaching closure? Aston Villa closed the transfer negotiation window for various reasons.
Aston Villa's next game is a highlight, and they will face Manchester City at home.
Currently, Aston Villa ranks first in the Premier League standings with 63 points.
Manchester City ranked second with 54 points.
This is also a direct confrontation between the top two in the league.
The English media are paying special attention to this game, which is a real championship battle.
If Aston Villa wins, they will further expand their lead and the suspense of the Premier League championship will become smaller and smaller.
However, if Manchester City can defeat Aston Villa away, they can narrow the gap to six points, and the suspense of the Premier League championship will be ignited again.
At the pre-match press conference, the media's focus was on rumors that Real Madrid was seeking to buy Bale.
Fang Jue flatly denied that the team had any intention of giving up Bale.
"Bell is Mr. Golden Ball, and many teams want to get him, that's the truth."
"But, the bigger fact is that he is very happy in Villa. He is very important. Aston Villa has not before and will not give up Bell in the future. He is not a product."
“Yes, absolutely non-sale!”
Fang Jue also criticized the Sun by name, saying that his relationship with this media has always been very bad.
Fang Jue accused The Sun of fabricating news that did not exist at all, with the intention of causing chaos and trouble for Aston Villa.
...
The singing of Villa Park stadium was loud. Before the game started, Aston Villa fans sang the Aston Villa team song in unison, exaggerating the atmosphere of the game.
Burgundy and blue acted in the stands of the two square arrays of flames and oceans.
Aston Villa and Manchester City are the league leaders and the other are the second in the league.
The development types of the two teams are very different.
Needless to say, Manchester City is just spending money, spending money, spending money, and poaching stars.
Aston Villa is even more magical. Their head coach has a very good vision and his coaching talent is even more obvious.
Fang Jue has been in the Premier League for nearly three years, and Aston Villa has dominated the Premier League and even dominated Europe.
The Times even lamented that Fang Jue's talent and his success in Aston Villa would not dare to write such a magical plot.
Aston Villa dominates, and Manchester City has also risen. In front of these two teams, veteran giants such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool are trembling.
These two teams directly changed the Premier League landscape.
...
Fang Jue is standing on the sidelines waiting for the game to begin.
Mancini did not stand on the sidelines, he sat in the visiting team coach's seat.
In this game, Mancini and Manchester City are the ones who cannot afford to lose the most.
If you want to win the championship, you must win this game, at least you must never lose.
Mancini sent all the main players in this game, and Manchester City will fight to the death.
On Aston Villa's side, Fang Jue was forced to rotate the team to a certain extent.
The reason is very simple. The battle for the knockout match of the UEFA Champions League next week is about to ignite.
Aston Villa will visit San Siro Stadium in the first leg of the Champions League One Eighth Finals, against Serie A defending champion AC Milan.
Aston Villa, who had just broken through the Devil's schedule, had to keep his energy on this Champions League knockout match.
"This Premier League top battle is about to begin, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides."
"On Aston Villa's side, the goalkeeper is De Gea, and the defense line is Kyle Walker, Papastasopoulos, Sendros and Thornton."
"The midfielder is Stroman, Milner, J Ronaldo and Bale."
"There are Suarez and Bentner on the front line."
"Modric and Mane, who had just returned from the African Cup, sat on the bench to rest, and veteran Klose also took turns to rest."
"In this game, Aston Villa's biggest hidden danger is Clement's absence. The Spanish midfielder's game is suspended for accumulating yellow cards."
Fang Jue stood on the sidelines, holding his chin and thinking.
Clement's suspension was forced to bring Milner's position to the midfield, and at the left-back position, he chose to trust Thornton.
"On Manchester City's goalkeeper is England's goalkeeper Joe Hart."
“The back line from right to left, Sabaleta, Lescott, Kompani and Kolarov.”
"Midfielder, Gareth Barry, De Jong, David Silva, Quaresma."
"Aguero and Dzeko are on the front line."
...
Suarez and Bentner stood in the middle circle, waiting for the kickoff.
The referee is passing the headset and the fourth official to time.
The noisy Villa Park Stadium calmed down at this moment.
The referee looked down at the watch, then gave a thumbs up to the fourth official on the sidelines:
Everything is normal and you can kick off the ball.
"beep--"
With a whistle, the game began.
...
Aston Villa is not conservative at his home court and tries to put pressure on Manchester City's goal to score as soon as possible.
The commentator commented on this situation and believed that this was exactly what Fang Jue’s confidence lies.
Even though he was suspended and missed the game and rotated some of the main players, Aston Villa is still capable of fighting against Manchester City head-on.
Milner signaled himself to stay in the defensive position, and Stroman went up to participate in the offense.
This is also why Fang Jue trusts Milner very much. When Clement was suspended, he would be relieved to hand over the heavy responsibility of midfield defense to Milner.
Chapter completed!
