Chương 13: Europe Tour 2
That's right, Chen Ran came here just for Modric, who just turned eighteen.
"Haha, Mr. Chen is too polite."
Mamic couldn't help but feel proud of being flattered by a club owner from the UK.
"Looking at Mr. Chen's name, you are not British, are you?"
"Yes, I am Chinese and I have just acquired the Crystal Palace club, so I want to buy some players to strengthen the team. Someone saw Modric playing in your club and recommended him to me."
"Oh, you are Chinese, welcome. Mr. Chen's vision is very accurate. Modric is a genius and will definitely become a superstar in the future. However, he is the core of our midfielder at Dinamo Zagreb and is not for sale. This time I may disappoint Mr. Chen."
Chen Ran secretly curled his lips inwardly, where is the 18-year-old core, a liar?
It's not for sale, this guy just wants the lion to open its mouth.
"Mr. Mamic, we come here with sincerity. I want to rebuild Crystal Palace, which requires a lot of signings and many target candidates to talk about. You also know that the transfer period is limited. If Modric is really not for sale, then we will I won't waste any more time and say goodbye."
Chen Ran used retreat as an advance to see who could not hold on first.
After saying this, he stood up, as if he was ready to leave.
"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment."
Mamic hurriedly called to Chen Ran. He was not sure whether Chen Ran was retreating in order to advance or if he really wanted to leave.
After all, Chen Ran is too young, and young people are more impulsive in doing things, which makes Mamic difficult to judge.
Chen Ran felt confident once he saw that the strategy was effective.
This guy is still willing to sell, the rest is just a matter of bargaining.
So, in the next few days, the two sides were at war with each other.
Although Mamic is the dominant player in Croatian football, when it comes to transactions with British clubs, he is relatively disciplined and does not use any off-the-table moves.
Finally, Chen Ran bought the 18-year-old Modric for 4 million euros.
Two years of installments, 2 million euros per year.
Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, is home to a team that has won the Champions League, the famous Red Star Belgrade Football Club.
"Chen, is this Vidic really as good as you say? For a central defender, 22 years old is still too young."
"You may not think Vidic is only 22 years old, but he is now the captain of Red Star Belgrade."
"What? A 22-year-old captain? It seems that the head coach of the Red Star team is really courageous."
"Pepe is only 20 years old, and Chiellini is only 19. The defense formed by them and Vidic is enough for us to use for ten years."
"Eh Chen, is this defense a little too young?"
"It's okay, let's just find another veteran to take charge."
"Do you have a goal?"
"That's right, but this will happen after we return to England. Let's take down Vidic first."
For many Eastern European players, playing in mainstream European leagues has always been their dream, and Vidic is no exception.
The clubs in these Eastern European countries are also willing to send the players they have trained to mainstream European leagues in exchange for transfer fees.
This is how they make money, and even teams like Red Star Belgrade that have won the Champions League cannot avoid it.
Hence, everyone from the Red Star Club to Vidic himself welcomes Chen Ran's arrival.
Although the fact that Crystal Palace is only a British Championship team made Vidic hesitate, but with the strong deception ability of Chen Ranjia Lewis, he finally nodded in agreement.
However, because Vidic is the team's captain and main central defender, the price of the Red Star Club is very high, and Chen Ran finally signed Vidic for 4 million euros.
Old rule, two-year installment payment, 2 million euros per year.
Donetsk, the capital of the Donetsk Oblast in eastern Ukraine.
"Chen, how come Yaya Toure, who is obviously an African player, comes to Ukraine to play football? Isn't he afraid of freezing to death?"
Louis was speechless. Where did Chen Ran find this weird thing?
"This just shows that this guy has strong adaptability."
Having said that, Chen Ran took Louis directly to the Donetsk Metallurgical Club.
"What? You want to buy Yaya Toure? That African?"
The receptionist looked at Chen Ran and Louis curiously. Although the business card said British Crystal Palace Club, these two guys didn't look like British people. Could they be liars?
At Metallurgical Donetsk, which is far away from the center of European football, this is the first time it has dealt with a British club, so be careful.
There was no other way, so Chen Ran had to turn on the computer again and find a news item with his photo attached to prove that he was not a liar.
Again, these Eastern European clubs have never objected to selling players to the European continent.
After confirming Chen Ran's identity, the two were warmly received by Ukrainians.
Yaya Toure, a guy who wandered to Ukraine, would certainly not object to returning to a warmer place.
In the winter he just spent, Yaya Toure was almost burped by the severe cold in Ukraine.
Finally, Chen Ran bought Yaya Toure for 1.5 million euros.
What is rare is that this time he did not pay in installments.
"Louis, book a flight and let's go back to London."
"It's great, I'm finally going back. I thought your next stop was going to Moscow."
The little fat man screamed and jumped up with joy.
Since entering Eastern Europe, the football network he was proud of has been cut off.
He couldn't do anything to help, and he felt like a useless person. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
"You will be busy when I get back. You have to help me buy two players from Brazil."
"Really or not? Are you going to buy a Brazilian? Haha, it's finally time for me to show my strength."
Although Luis' father is Uruguayan, Brazil is their family's home base.
Chen Ran bought so many players before, and except for Pepe, whom Mendes helped lead, none of them were Brazilian. He thought Chen Ran didn't like Brazilian players.
"When you go back to Brazil to buy people this time, have a good talk with your dad and eldest brother. If I plan to introduce players from South America in the future, I will leave it to you. As long as our Crystal Palace becomes bigger and stronger, maybe your eldest brother I will continue to curry favor with you from now on."
"Thank you, Chen."
Hearing Chen Ran's words, the little fat man grabbed Chen Ran's hand and was speechless with excitement.
Because his father was partial, he ran away to England in anger, always thinking of doing something to prove himself.
Chen Ran was creating opportunities for him, and Louis knew this very well.
Judging from the previous series of signings, Chen Ran has his own special channels, and there is not much difference whether he helps or not.
"Okay, don't be disgusted. Just do your job honestly. I will send someone to check the accounts."
Chen Ran shook off Louis' fat hand and pushed the little fat man away with disgust on his face. He was not a gay.
