"call" Fabio Liccari sat in front of the desk in the editorial department of Gazzetta dello Sport and forcefully exhaled the resentment in his heart.
He has just completed another front-page story in Gazzetta dello Sport tomorrow.
The headline is: Inter Milan will sign Real Madrid midfielder Khedira.
This is the exact news he just received from his Spanish counterpart.
It is said that Inter Milan technical director Marco Blanca personally negotiated and signed the contract.
This transfer will be announced within a week.
Do the math, this is Inter Milan’s first transfer in the past month.
From Damian to Nainggolan, to Alan and Widmer, to Rugani, Dybala, Romagnoli and other players, there are both stars in their prime and talented young rookies.
Moreover, the age of players is generally controlled under the age of 25.
This signing strategy is undoubtedly quite shrewd.
More importantly, Inter Milan's transfer is obviously completely different from before.
Just like before, the Nerazzurri worked hard to raise a sum of funds and wanted to introduce a midfielder in the transfer market.
They also took a fancy to a player from Brazil.
The other club was also willing to sell him.
Players are eager to join a European team as soon as possible.
Under normal circumstances, such a transfer should hit it off and be quickly negotiated.
But what about the result?
Half a year later, the opposing club criticized Inter Milan's negotiating attitude.
Even the players said that Inter Milan lacked sincerity and refused to continue negotiations.
The transfer was ultimately aborted, and the midfielder's performance immediately after switching to his team.
Outstanding.
At that time, many people said that Inter Milan had declined to the point where they didn’t even know how to spend money.
This statement is purely for the purpose of making fun of the Nerazzurri.
It is impossible that the Nerazzurri do not know how to spend money.
It can only be said that they do not know how to operate the funds in their hands like Galliani, the shrewd bald man of AC Milan.
Maximize profits.
It is this mentality of having no money on the one hand, and on the other hand having money but looking forward and backward, thinking about how to spend less money, which ultimately led to Inter Milan becoming a well-known team in Serie A in the past few years.
Everyone in the football circle is laughing.
Inter Milan has only one requirement to buy someone, cheap.
Let’s take a look at the players in the team.
There are a few who can play as main players in the middle and upper reaches of Serie A.
But what no one expected was that Inter Milan's style had completely changed after they had just changed a boss.
After the previous acquisition, the team's performance was poor, and the fans immediately protested.
Inter Milan was on the verge of crumbling, and the building was about to collapse.
But now, after the team won Udinese, they have won two consecutive games.
Good performance.
More importantly, the Nerazzurri changed their hesitant style in the past and signed a dozen powerful stars with lightning speed, including one with a high price of 15 million euros.
The introduction of De Bruyne from Chelsea is most exciting for Inter Milan fans.
Mazzarri even stated in a high-profile interview that De Bruyne is extremely talented and has the opportunity to become a world-class star.
And now, midfielder Khedira has been introduced.
A full 20 million euros, and it was done without saying a word.
No wonder a large number of Inter Milan fans left messages on the official WeChat, saying that they woke up laughing in the middle of the night Who is this Chinese investor?
Fabiolicari thought depressedly, he had not forgotten the scene where he was teased two months ago.
Normally, if it is a foreign investor, there should be an adaptation period after acquiring a team.
For example, they should first familiarize themselves with Inter Milan's internal affairs and understand the situation of the Nerazzurri, such as the team lineup, the head coach, or personnel arrangements.

But this investor didn't seem to need such a process at all.
He seemed to be quite familiar with professional football.
After taking over Inter Milan, he immediately promoted the reform of the power structure of Inter Milan's management and supported Faso.
The three powerful men, Ney, Blanca and Ausilio, established a balance of power.
At the same time, they also signed a dozen players at once, many of whom were still very unfamiliar.
If Inter Milan hadn't introduced them, they might not have been able to pronounce their names, but once they got to know them, they found that the evaluation was quite good.
For example, De Vrij from Feyenoord in the Eredivisie, who has heard of it before?
But Fabio Licari went to check with his colleagues in the Netherlands, only to find that they spoke highly of De Vrij and even gave him the title of Stam II. who is Stam Who in the whole city of Milan would not give a thumbs up when hearing this name?
At that time, the central defender combination formed by Stam and Nesta was the best in Europe, and its strength was outrageous.
Can this DeVry have the strength of Stam?
No, you don’t need to have Stam’s strength.
With his worth of only 6 million euros, he only needs to play half of Stam’s strength, which is quite a deal.
Therefore, Fabio Licari can almost conclude that the Chinese investors are either very familiar with and understand football, or there is someone in his team who has been immersed in European football for many years.
Then who is it?
Of course Fabio Liccari would not believe that it was the man named Zhao who held the title of club president.
Thinking of this, Fabiolicari immediately took out his mobile phone, entered the address book, found a name, and clicked on it.
After beeping twice, the other party answered, seeming to be in a hurry and panting.
"Hey Paul, it's me, Fabio" Fabiolicari smiled and greeted Paul Vigano on the other side of the phone.
"Hi Fabio, thank you, Inter Milan has been on the front page for us for the past two weeks" Paolo Vigano on the other end of the phone is Inter Milan's head of public relations.
"Hey, Paul, don't be so polite.
You have been making a lot of noise recently.
If there is any big news, please inform me as soon as possible."
Paul Vigano immediately nodded in agreement, "If you don't tell me, I haven't remembered it yet.
You will arrange the news about Khedira tomorrow."
"Well, yes, I have already written the manuscript and it will be printed in a few hours."
"That's good, but I think you should consider adding something more."
"What do you mean?"
Fabiolicari felt a little strange.
"Frankly speaking, we gave Khedira's news to three newspapers with good relationships, but then I will give you the exclusive."
"Exclusive" Fabiolicari's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes."
Paul Vigano nodded, "I'm busy going to a meeting now.
I can't say more about the specific things.
I'll ask my assistant to send you a press release later.
In addition to bringing in Khedira from Real Madrid, we also brought in "Morata" "Morata" Fabio Liccari was shocked.
"Haha, it's scary enough.
Let me tell you, Marco has finalized the deal in Spain.
He will come to the team to participate in joint training in the next few days.
At that time, I will arrange for you to come over and take some training photos.
Believe me, there will definitely be surprises. " Fabiolicari was almost stunned.
Brother, can you tell me the breaking news in one go?
It's hard for us to hold it in when you explode one by one, okay?
However, if it is announced in one breath, I don’t know if the hearts of those old Milan fans can bear it.
If someone accidentally "By the way, Paul, I have something that you must tell me."
Fabiolicari immediately thought of the purpose of making this call.

The joining of Morata is indeed very exciting.
This Spanish center is now very popular, but compared with the boss behind Inter Milan, Morata is inferior, right?
"Say it" "Who is your boss?"
Fabio Liccari asked seriously.
There was obvious silence on the other side of the phone.
"Hey, man, I'm just curious.
Really, I promise, I won't publish it in the newspaper.
We have been dating for so many years, you should trust me as a person, or" "I'm sorry, Fabio, I believe you, but frankly speaking, I don't know many things, and I can't say them.
The superiors have very strict requirements on every department now, and I can't reveal company secrets."
Fabiolicari was helpless and sighed, "Okay, man, I won't force you anymore.
I just didn't expect that you are still working overtime now."
"Yes, the club has acquired the land for the new stadium.
There are many things to do.
The team plans to participate in next year's International Champions Cup and also needs to formulate a business development plan.
There are also a lot of other things.
In short, you understand."
"I understand, I understand" At this moment, Fabiolicari vaguely heard someone calling Paul Vigano's name on the other side of the phone, and the latter immediately agreed.
"Sorry, Fabio, I have to go to a meeting.
Goodbye."
Listening to the beeping busy tone from the phone, Fabiolicari was helpless and could only lower his head.
On the other side of the phone, Paul Vigano immediately opened the conference room door and walked in after hanging up the phone.
"I'm sorry, Mr.
Fassone."
Paul Vigano apologized to Marco Fassone, the club's CEO at the top, who nodded towards him and motioned for him to sit down quickly.
After everyone was seated, Fassone turned on the projector, showed the t he made, and started the meeting.
There were no surprises in the content of the meeting, and it still had a lot to do with the recent reforms of the club.
As we all know, if Inter Milan wants to get out of the current predicament, there are only two ways, to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
It is best to approach both.
According to Fassone's ideas, the management reform, cutting and integrating some departments, eliminating redundant staff in the club, especially some employees who relied on the relationship of the Moratti family to get paid in vain at Inter Milan, and the team's management team was refined.
A lot.
After the team ends this season, most of the players whose contracts have expired will not renew their contracts.
If they consider selling or simply allowing them to transfer freely, after sending away a group of players, even if they bring in a dozen more players, Inter Milan's overall salary burden will still drop by about 25 million euros.
That’s about 50 million euros before tax.
In other words, after changing a group of players, the team became stronger and the team spent 50 million euros less.
Of course, the main reason is that the high salaries of players including Zanetti, Cambiaso, Diego Milito, Samuel and Chivu were cut, among which Diego Milito was as high as 4.5 million euros after tax.
Cambiaso also has an after-tax annual salary of more than 4 million euros, while players such as Zanetti, Samuel, Pereira, Guarin and Chivu also have an annual after-tax salary of more than 2 million euros.
Among the newly joined players, except for Khedira's higher salary, which is 3 million euros after tax, which is slightly higher than when he was at Real Madrid, De Bruyne's salary is only 2.5 million euros after tax.
EUR.
Therefore, under the circumstances, Inter Milan will save about 50 million euros a year in terms of salary expenses.
When Fassone said this, his heart was full of excitement, and he couldn't believe this number.
Because if this is the case, then Master Huan's net investment is only 10 to 20 million euros, but the result is that Inter Milan's entire lineup configuration is completely brand new.
Of course, such a large-scale restructuring is a big risk, and no team will do it easily, and you have to have 130 million euros in funds to operate it.
But no matter which angle you look at it, it’s really a good deal:
