Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 199

Xavi Martinez, who is tall and has a standard Spanish appearance, stood shyly beside Stuart.

"Xavi's current English level is not enough to support normal communication with everyone, but the team has equipped him with a special translator and English teacher."

After Stuart introduced the basic situation of Xavi Martinez, Knight couldn't help but get close to Su Fei.

"Damn, isn't that just a mute?"

Su Fei ignored the guy's complaints and cast a friendly look at Xavi Martinez.

This is Xavi Martinez!

Although in terms of future fame, it is not as well-known as Modric.

In his prime, he was called the world's number one defensive midfielder!

In the original history...

The 2010 South Africa World Cup champion defensive midfielder!

The 2012 Poland Ukraine European Cup champion defensive midfielder!

The main defensive midfielder of the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich!

8 Bundesliga champions!

2 Champions League champions!

2 European Super Cups, 2 Club World Cups, 5 German Cups, 4 German Super Cups...

Perhaps Javi Martinez is not so outstanding in terms of personal honors, but he has won a lot of honors in terms of team honors.

And his low-key and introverted personality, which is willing to be a supporting role in the team, can definitely be called the best midfield puzzle of a super team.

Although Javi Martinez is still young now, according to his memory of his previous life, he is definitely enough to play the role of Manchester City's main midfielder at the age of 18.

You are worthy of it, Raiola.

Su Fei sighed in his heart.

As an agent, he really brought Raiola from La Liga to Manchester City.

However, based on his understanding of Raiola, Manchester City is estimated to have a big loss again this time...

..........................................

It is indeed a big loss.

Stuart looked at the shy Javi Martinez beside him, and he still felt a little painful. He hoped that this young La Liga midfielder could quickly integrate into the team.

A full 10 million euro transfer fee!

Damn it.

This is the result of my argument with Raiola, citing classics, and arguing with him for several days.

I still remember that day when I handed the paper to Raiola to fill in casually.

That vampire.

He actually filled in a price of 15 million.

Stuart thought Raiola would ask for a huge price, but he didn't expect his mouth to be so big that it could dislocate.

Anyway.

This matter has been settled anyway, and Stuart doesn't care whether the Premier League media will criticize him for mindlessly spending money again when the news comes out tomorrow.

After all.

Modric, who he signed for 12 million, successfully helped him slap those media in the face through his performance against Liverpool.

Even if Javi Martinez failed to play the corresponding value and failed to meet his expectations.

Stuart can accept it.

I am not a god. I am a new head coach. I started from scratch in the transfer field and explored step by step.

Mainly.

The team must be strengthened in the current situation. Although we won many games in the first half of the schedule, we actually gritted our teeth to win.

To put it bluntly, it is almost entirely supported by Su Fei, with Knight in the midfield, Dunn and Sun Jihai in the back line.

As for other positions.

Either they are getting older and their physical strength declines as the game progresses, or their upper limit is there, which is just a little bit off.

Stuart has a clear account in his mind.

This winter break, we have to spend money to buy a few more players, but Manchester City is not like Liverpool, Manchester United and other giants.

It has its own extremely complete global scout network, which can continuously provide recommendations for the most suitable players for the team.

As for the youth training team?

Stuart himself was transferred from the youth training head coach, and he knows the level of the current Manchester City youth training players too well.

If there were any capable people, they would have been promoted to the first team long ago!

So this is why Stuart was surprised and willing to spend more than the market price to buy Javi Martinez after Raiola took the initiative to bring the players to the door.

In fact, there is no more suitable candidate in a short time, but reinforcement is imminent!

......

After the players and Javi Martinez introduced each other with the simplest English vocabulary.

Manchester City's daily training began as usual, with a 10,000-meter morning run!

"Sir, the endurance of another new player you selected for the team is also very good!"

"Haha."

While the players were running, the flattery of assistant Oliver came late, and Stuart's heartache was reduced a little, and he couldn't help but mention the arrangement for Oliver..

"Oliver, how are you these days? Are there any new players who think they are suitable to join our team and are looking for transfers during the winter break?"

"Uh..."

Oliver's smile froze on his face, and he scratched his head awkwardly. Then he seemed to have thought of something and gave a suggestion.

"Sir, why don't you ask Su? Luka's performance is very good. There may be some very good players suitable for us in Croatia."

"Ask Su?"

Stuart rubbed his chin and nodded.

Because of the relationship between Su Fei and Modric, he now has a natural liking for players from the Croatian league.

Although he didn't have much hope, he still found Su Fei who was standing on the grass to rest after running.

"Su, our team still needs to introduce some players this winter break. The Luka you recommended is very good. Do you have any other outstanding players like Luka to recommend?"

Hearing Stuart's words, Su Fei was silent.

Damn.

The old man really thinks I am a top scout, right? I was just a football fan in my previous life, how could I know so many potential players in 2005?

Those I know are basically in the big clubs.

Others are either too old and have been famous for a long time, or too young, like Haaland, Neymar, Mbappe, who are still children...

Seeing Su Fei's expression, Stuart was a little embarrassed. He was desperate.

As a head coach, asking his own players which players to buy, and a child under the age of 18... is indeed a bit whimsical.

Stuart, who was about to leave, heard a heavy news from Su Fei.

"Boss, did Raiola tell you that I asked him to recommend Xavi to you?"

"Ah?"

Stuart's expression froze on his face.

He looked at Javi Martinez, who was being approached by Knight not far away and looked a little embarrassed, and then looked at Su Fei in front of him with a serious expression.

If Su Fei recommended Modric, Stuart could understand it, after all, they were teammates who had played together.

This Javi Martinez played in the La Liga youth training!

How could Su Fei recommend a player that even Manchester City scouts (although there were almost none) could not discover?

Magic.

Stuart thought this was really magical!

However.

The shock Su Fei gave him was not over yet, and he heard Su Fei slowly recommend another player to him.

"If you really want to recommend, I have a candidate."

"But this candidate is more difficult to deal with, and I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for him to join our team."

"Antonio Cassano, a striker currently playing for Roma!"
