The Young Lion

In the quiet living room, Aldridge's expression became a little helpless.

Mourinho left without saying a word.

It seems that the conversation between the two broke up.

Aldrich, as the person who came here, can understand that he just took office and coached the club for the first time. The last thing he wants to hear is the doubts of others.

Mourinho is enjoying the power of the head coach, perhaps he is excited on the way to the negotiation in person.

So Aldridge didn't want to talk about the reasons at first.

The other party insists on listening and is not satisfied after listening. Who blames it?

Aldrich was just telling the truth. He couldn't give the player the opponent because he was Mourinho.

The future is the future, the present is the present, and of course the situation is different.

He is responsible for the players, and he is also very cautious on loan. Mourinho's initial coaching career was not smooth, and he did not stay long in Benfica. If Adrich really gave Viana to the other party, it would be too irresponsible.

Aldridge didn't take the Magic Bird into his heart, and he picked up the list sent by Najib and thought about it seriously.

This list was summarized by Najib.

Some players recommend listing transfers, and some players recommend renting out to observe growth. In the loan list, there are also clubs that recommend renting out. This is the conclusion made by Naji and his team based on the characteristics of players and the target club.

Summer is never calm for football, and a giant club is not calm.

Henry's affairs are unresolved, and there are players within Millwall who have submitted applications for transfer.

"How much is Manchester United bidding? 2 million? Ha ha, let 5 million pounds go."

Aldridge is remotely commanded at home. Richardson of the youth team submitted a transfer application. At the same time, Manchester United sent an offer of 2 million. It seems that they have already privatized the music.

Richardson is a defender, 17 years old this year, came to the club last year.

Two million pounds sold, which has already turned over.

Reminiscent of the lack of Manchester United is the defender, Aldridge estimates that Ferguson also wants to get some good seedlings early, and will be able to seamlessly become the team's main force in the future.

Milwaukee, the defender, was too rich, and Richardson didn't show too much talent. Of course, this is a horizontal contrast. For example, Mex, Lescott is more talented than the other side.

But maybe it is Richardson’s local account, or Manchester United dare not spend too much money on the players who have not played well, really let them quote Mex, the defender selected for the French low-age echelon national team, Manchester United don't report a £5 million wait for Millwall to bargain, is that right?

Richardson's transfer was finalized within two days, with a £3.5 million transfer to Manchester United.

On the same day, Wenger called Aldridge.

The professor also took a fancy to Millwall's young players.

Seaman is old and Arsenal is going to prepare Seaman for his successor.

Arsenal missed Millwall's third goalkeeper: Richard Wright.

This goalkeeper who has never played in the official Millwall game!

However, Wright did stay on the ground at Millwall for 6 years, received 6 years of training, the youth team, the reserve team, along the way, 6 years!

The success of Millwall's first team can be said that Wright has no substantive contribution, only to accumulate suspected hard work.

However, the youth team and the reserve team have also been very glorious in recent years, especially for some records, which have his credit.

He was the goalkeeper of the England U21 national team two years earlier.

Even so, Aldridge has never expected Wright because Bout is also very young, only 26 years old this year, what does this goalkeeper represent? Represents at least 8 to 10 years of professional life.

When it is time to find a successor for Bout, Aldridge can have more choices.

Arsenal estimates that Millwall's quality is guaranteed. The goalkeeper considers Wright's age. As long as he can successfully succeed Seaman, this position will be worry-free for ten years!

Wenger was really not stingy, and offered an offer of 3 million pounds.

For a player who has never played in the top professional league, especially the goalkeeper, £3 million, it is really not low!

Not only Wright, Wenger also fell in love with 19-year-old Jeffers.

Jeffers has no future in the club. At least this is what Milwall’s internal coaching team has evaluated. He has been listed in the summer. Because at the age of 19, Jeffers is talented and capable, but if he can’t be at the top as soon as possible With the league standing, he may say goodbye to the top league stage forever. Millwall could not give him the opportunity. The players who were on loan were already unhappy, and simply sold them.

Aldridge and Wenger reached an agreement on the phone, Wright + Jeffers, a total of 8 million pounds packaged and sold to Arsenal.

Arsenal had just left his forefoot, and Arsenal's foe also knocked on Millwall's transfer door.

Tottenham opened an offer that Millwall could not refuse.

£8 million for Ledley King.

Aldridge really hesitated, and finally decided to sell it directly.

The central defender first team is not short of people now, leaving Metselde and Balzali as substitutes. Neil Wanjin has no hard work. There is no need to make the lineup too crowded. At this age of King, £8 million is not low.

Matthew Taylor moved to Portsmouth for £1 million.

German midfielder Balich returned to the Bundesliga with 3 million pounds, playing for Leverkusen.

In the final stage of selling the players, Aldridge and Robson also made a heavyweight sale.

The three of Jenas, Parker and Nolan were taken away by Newcastle United. The Magpies paid 12 million pounds plus the floating terms after the three league appearances reached the standard. The maximum price can reach 16 million pounds.

Robson turned the tide last season. He has a solid coaching position in Newcastle United. This season will naturally have a higher pursuit. Therefore, some players who are not wanted from Millwall are a bit shabby. It may be associated with Leeds United. After the season's generous progress into the Champions League qualifiers, Millwall's elimination of players does not mean that it is street goods, you can buy it everywhere!

These 20-year-old players are really in the early days of Millwall. The first team has the same young and talented talent reserves in these positions. If they are really waiting for opportunities in Millwall, they may be fooled here. Too.

Players like Parker and Jenas came to visit Aldridge before leaving, solemnly bid farewell.

They don’t complain that the club sells them. Being a good person before playing football is a training strategy that Millwall has always been. They are inferior to others. They can’t compete in the team and have to go far away. At the moment of separation, they Listen to Aldridge’s last teachings with gratitude.

In fact, Aldridge just let them play football, concentrate on the field, go to other clubs, can also stand out, some of the truths that are often talked about, different people say it has different effects, anyway, Aldridge preached to them , They listened carefully and kept in mind deeply.

The selling stage is over and Millwall settles his accounts. This summer, the penny on the transfer market has not been spent, but the club first earned nearly 80 million pounds!

VanderMead, £15 million.

Makelele, £28 million.

Reserve team and youth team, 35.5 million pounds + 4 million pounds of floating income.

Summer preparations are about to begin, and the transfer work of the major clubs is in full swing. The basic results have been shown. Those who can buy it have bought it early, and there is not much hope for it. The soap opera is a game of the giants. For most "poor middle peasants" clubs, the club lineup should also be established, the rest is that they can't buy it, they can only rent it as a targeted reinforcement.

Millwall's first team lineup has not yet been finalized because Aldridge cannot convince the two players to stay at ease and stay on the bench.

Joaquin and Vicente, the Spanish angel wings.

The two did not want to wave goodbye to Millwall directly, but they had a strong desire to play, hoping to get more playing opportunities, especially in high-level events.

It was at this time that Valencia, who was defeated by Millwall in the Champions League finals, ushered in a huge "change".

Valencia has one of the best midfielders in Europe. What do you think of when you combine the two?

Was dug!

Just like Millwall at that time, it is normal for their team to be dug out of a famous star.

"Little Flea" Lopez went to Lazio for $32 million.

Barcelona, ​​who was born almost free to join Valencia, was recalled by Barcelona. After three years of time, Valencia made 24 million!

Moratti took Falinos from Mestalla with a $18 million check.

One of Valencia's best midfielders in Europe combined with a counter-attack core frontcourt system is almost hollowed out!

Valencia, who has made a lot of money, wants to strengthen the lineup and sent Millwall a quotation of 20 million pounds. He wants to pack and take Vicente and Huajin.

After Millwall refused, they raised another 4 million pounds, a total of 24 million pounds. Millwall was still unmoved.

Seeing that the summer preparations are about to start, Cooper has no choice but to let the club rent people if they can't buy them.

Vicente and Joaquin are not interested in the transfer, because Valencia seems to be the place to sell stars. Is the transfer going and waiting to be sold?

However, the situation is different when rented.

Valencia was the third place in La Liga last season, and there is a Champions League to play in the new season!

Go exercise to improve, and then come back to fight for usurpation at the giant Millwall.

After discussing with the coaching staff, Aldridge agreed to the request of the two players to apply for a loan to Valencia.

At least under the premise that they have just renewed their contract, Aldridge does not have to worry about the situation where the renter cannot return.

The work is carried out step by step, and the players of the reserve team are also loaned out one by one.

Carrick, Squillage, Drogba, Meeks, Hengrande, Crouch, Defoe, Viana, Evra...

Millwall has leased these players to different leagues through the club relations network established over the years. France and England are the majority, but some also go to the Netherlands.

When all the dust settled, Aldridge was too late to take a breath, and the club's upcoming summer training and recruitment work was put on the table again.

Since the extension of the contract has retained the main force, only Makelele left, Gattuso is logically at the top, so the signing work is very easy, the key is to renew the contract, the signing is definitely slower than others, but it does not matter, Millwall signing has never been No one is robbing or arguing with them. They are leading the way in Europe. They are introducing the future star of hope, a contemporary well-known star, and any giants robbing. Millwall is not involved.

Tomorrow is the date when Millwall’s preparation for the new season kicks off. The players’ holidays are over, with the exception of some players. Those players who have played in the European Cup and advanced to the knockout have been notified by the club to extend the holiday.

Aldridge accidentally received a call from Adam on this day.

"The boss, Real Madrid's new chairman, Florentino Perez, came to London and invited you to dinner at the Gordon Ramsay restaurant tonight."
