I AM the Football Star
Chapter 797 - 194: Serie A, Tremble!
Even Manchester United, the greatest football club of the twentieth century, is only teasing Morici at this point, testing the waters, and doesn’t dare to directly cross me, Lu.
But Manchester City!
Many people think Manchester City is just a fool, rich but brainless.
However, at this moment, top experts in world football are following the clues revealed by Manchester City, starting to analyze who exactly Manchester City is waiting for.
All the head coaches are excited, is this person targeted by Manchester City really that capable? Will they become one of our Champions League rivals in the future?
All the clubs are also nervous, could it be that Manchester City is eyeing our head coach? Damn, it’s time to rewrite the contract with our head coach and give a bit more bonus!
Though the other side has made a move, their methods are really advanced. After a long discussion amongst all football circles, they still couldn’t pinpoint this person.
Because top coaches have distinct coaching styles, they have specific requirements for players.
And a player like Lu Yang... To be honest, technical coaches are unlikely to use him.
It’s not that Lu Yang can’t play in a technical team, he can.
But Lu Yang’s approach to playing football doesn’t quite align with the philosophy of technical teams.
Lu Yang’s running and coverage are one of his biggest features. His ability to cover teammates’ shortcomings and weaknesses is terrifying, allowing any ordinary or mildly unique teammate to perform at star-caliber levels.
However, technical teams, while they also demand a lot of running, have clear plans for each player’s position and role.
Only in this way can they produce distinct technical synergy.
This means their players shouldn’t have too many or too pronounced shortcomings, as the playing style of technical teams inherently covers these weaknesses, so Lu Yang’s compensatory role in a technical team would be suppressed to the minimum!
The essence of technique is to systematically differentiate and utilize abilities.
Yet Lu Yang is a mixed-use player; in serving as a technical player, he also loses his original all-around ability.
Lu Yang excels in having outstanding abilities in various areas; such a player needs to be utilized in a full-spectrum manner.
And shouldn’t be like using Pogba, where emphasizing his offensive ability means overlooking his control and defense, or emphasizing his control and defense means sacrificing his offensive ability.
This is a tactical failure, not good for the player or the team.
Therefore, the coach who likes him should either follow a full attack and full defense approach or be a traditional English coach.
However, within this scope, no coach of this type seems to show extra fondness or praise for Lu Yang, and those few possible candidates are quite happy in their current clubs with no reason to go to Manchester City.
For a moment, the Premier League is introspective due to this offer.
Of course, San Remo refused Manchester City’s offer without hesitation.
But!
Very soon, a bigger problem arose!
Do not doubt the means and capabilities of the giants.
Someone among them quickly discovered the buyout clause in Lu Yang and Morici’s contracts!
The buyout clause is extremely rare in this era.
It’s an absolute symbol of player status.
Players with such clauses can say they want to leave the club anytime, holding absolute initiative in labor relations.
After all, the buyout amounts of this era are not as terrifying as those later on, with everyone being in the billions.
The buyout clauses of this era match the players’ valuations, this is the initial form and meaning of buyout clauses.
This is the club showing maximum respect and sincerity towards their star players!
...
"Super Explosive! Lu Yang and Morici actually have buyout clauses?"
"The amount of the buyout directly determines whether Lu Yang and Morici will leave this summer!"
"If this buyout amount is below thirty million, Manchester City could snatch Lu Yang directly! And the remaining part of the transfer fee might even be returned to Lu Yang as salary!"
"How much is Morici’s buyout? If it’s no more than twenty million, Barça and Manchester United could take them away!"
"As an Italian giant, Juventus has a deadly allure for Italian players! Lu Yang and Morici might join the Zebra Corps?"
"Real Madrid is delighted! Izalelt has been taken, why not also pack Lu Yang and Morici?"
"Bayern, come quickly! Lu Yang is the killer of Izalelt and AC Milan, bring back the Champions League godfather, and you’ll be Champions League winners next year!"
"Paris Saint-Germain, still not making a move? Players like Lu Yang and Morici, even Zidane speaks highly of them!"
All major media, like sharks smelling blood.
It’s like San Remo Supermarket not only opened its door but the cashier is also absent!
If not grabbing now, then when?
And ultimately, the English media indeed are formidable.
The Sun Newspaper, always dabbling in gossip, actually pulled off something big this time!
They found out the specific amount of the buyout clause for Lu Yang and Morici!
The Sun Newspaper exclusive report: Specific amounts for Lu Yang and Morici’s buyout are... viewable after payment.
Everyone cursed extensively.
Click to pay.
"Lu Yang and Morici’s buyout amount is only ten million euros!"
Boom!
World Football trembled because of this.
Ten million?
Is it fake!
Why would the Sun fabricate such a thing?
Even Versachi doesn’t cost less than ten million, let alone Morici who presses him on the bench?
This is too bargain-priced, isn’t it?
