Chapter 39 Cyclonus
The Arabs launched a gold dollar offensive against Italian football in early 2009, which ended in failure. After the Calciopoli incident, although Italian football has long since lost its former glory, this time, they finally withstood it and kept Italian football. dignity.
The chaotic transfer turmoil has finally come to an end. No one knows what it will be like when the season is over and summer comes.
The off-court drama is almost done, and now people have once again turned their attention back to the arena. In the 19th round of Serie A, Fiorentina played at home against Lecce. Beckham continued to start in this game, and Ledesma , Fellaini partnered with the center line.
It was originally considered to be a game without any suspense, but in the sixth minute of the game, Viola's defense made a mistake, Kompany fell from the top, and Giacomasi seized the opportunity. After stabilizing the ball, fake The action tricked the goalkeeper Frey into the ball.
0:1!
Fiorentina fell behind at home and the score fell behind. Fiorentina then launched a massive counterattack. First, in the twelfth minute, a free kick near the Digan corner flag was shot directly. Lecce goalkeeper Benussi struggled to lift the ball over the crossbar .
In the 24th minute, Degan took another free kick and was blocked by Benussi. Beckham took a corner kick from the left side. Degan responded from the middle and headed the ball into the left side of the gate, 1:1.
Beckham contributed his second assist in his second appearance. After the goal, Degan also ran towards Beckham, and the two superstars hugged each other.
Immediately afterwards, after only four minutes, Fiorentina overtook the score, Hamsik passed the header, Digan succeeded in anti-offside, shoveled into the net, 2:1.
In the next game, although Lecce launched a crazy counterattack, but his strength was not good enough, he finally failed to equalize the score. Although Fiorentina also got a few chances, they were always unlucky when they were helpless. Beckham Mu still had a chance for a free kick. The Lecce goalkeeper had already surrendered, but he kicked it on the post.
In the end, the two sides ended the game 2:1. Fiorentina continued to lead the standings. After finishing the league, the UEFA Champions League group stage rekindled the battle.
Fiorentina, who had already qualified ahead of schedule, faced Bayern Munich. In this game, apart from Digan, Prandelli made a lot of noise in other positions. Nokia and De Sciglio's pure substitute lineup, Beckham did not enter the big list of the game.
After 90 minutes of fierce fighting, the two sides finally shook hands 2:2 and made a draw. De Sciglio, who represented Fiorentina for the first time in a European competition, performed well in this game. Although there were not many highlights, he did not make any mistakes. Especially It was when facing a superstar like Ribery that De Sciglio already had the air of a general. He did not lose the wind in several duels, and he was unanimously praised by the major media after the game.
Returning to the league, the twentieth round of Serie A began, and Fiorentina went to the away game to challenge Juventus. In this game, Juventus goalkeeper Buffon Liu Feng recovered from the flu. It is good news to play the league for the first time after recovering from a back injury. However, Sissoko and Molinaro were suspended, and Trezeguet, Camoranesi, Chiellini and others were absent due to injuries. Ranieri was also stretched in terms of formation.
Beckham continued to serve as the starter in the league. Degan and Mutu formed a double arrow. Last season, the Viola won 3:2 in Turin, ending the history of Juventus's away game winless since 1988.
In the opening four minutes, Fiorentina got the first chance. Montolivo sent a threatening ball from the midfielder. Marchisio rushed to destroy the ball before Mutu competed for the top.
In the 8th minute, Juventus launched a counterattack. Marchionne personally broke into the penalty area and shot. The outside of the foot rubs and shoots slightly above the crossbar.
There was controversy in the 11th minute of the game. Modric, who was very active in Fiorentina, broke into the penalty area with the ball and fell to the ground after contacting Mellberg, but the referee signaled the game to continue. From the slow motion, the two The toes do make contact.
Although missed a penalty kick, Fiorentina still took the lead in the 20th minute. Beckham on the right was intercepted by four defenders, and the instep of his right foot went straight to Degan who was in the middle. Degan took the ball Breaking into the penalty area, facing the goalkeeper Buffon, 5 meters in front of the goal, volleyed into the top of the goal from a small angle, 1:0.
For three consecutive league games, Beckham has provided three assists, and all three assists helped Degan score a goal. After the goal, Degan also seemed very excited, rushed over, and beat Beckham Hug up.
Juventus currently ranks third in the standings. Although they are nine points behind Fiorentina, they still retain the hope of winning the championship. In such a direct dialogue and a home game, they are of course unwilling to lose.
And Fiorentina, who led the score, did not play conservatively in the next game. After withstood Fiorentina's repeated attacks, Fiorentina also seized the opportunity to counterattack. First, Digan received an overhead ball from Montolivo. Offside successfully formed a single pole, but Buffon attacked the ball and destroyed it. Immediately afterwards, Beckham once again made a cross from the right, and Lero Talie made a clearance not far away. Mutu volleyed slightly higher than 12 meters in front of the goal.
Juventus almost tied in the 33rd minute, Nedved made a pass from the left, Del Piero hit the crossbar with a header 7 meters in front of the goal!
After that, Fiorentina continued to insist on oppressive style of play. Montolivo shot from 17 meters in front of the goal and caused Buffon to let go. Nito was behind and Mutu was not offside.
In stoppage time in the first half, Del Piero made a clever direct pass and created a single-handed chance again. Marchionne made two shots, both of which were blocked by Frey with his feet.
Then Beckham took a free kick from the right, and Kompany rushed to the top 7 meters from the goal. The ball hit teammate Montolivo and hit the side netting.
After the intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again. In the 54th minute, Beckham made a diagonal pass from the right rib, and Degan missed the golden hook upside down in front of the goal.
In the 57th minute, Montolivo made a direct pass to the left side of the penalty area. Mutu volleyed from a small angle and was hit by Buffon. Degan missed a follow-up shot.
In the 61st minute, Del Piero cooperated with Marchionne. The latter knocked back from the right. Grigera volleyed vigorously from the instep outside the restricted area line, which was supported by Frey with one hand.
In the 69th minute, Fiorentina expanded their lead. Degan broke through to the front of Juventus' penalty area with the ball and shot. Rubbed the shot and scored the ball into the far corner of the goal.
2:0!
In the end, the score was maintained until the end, and Beckham, who contributed a goal and an assist, was named the best player of the game after the game.
The first game was mediocre, the second game was no longer holding back the team, and the third game scored his first goal. After Beckham joined Fiorentina, he played better every game in Serie A. This is beyond everything. people's expectations. After this game, Fiorentina's executive chairman Parkinwa also confirmed in an interview that Fiorentina is trying to keep Beckham, whose current contract is on loan, for a long time.
Before the game against Juventus, Fiorentina coach Prandelli once praised Beckham's professionalism and tactical discipline at the press conference. This is not just a simple compliment, although Beckham It is the most unpretentious part of the Fiorentina midfielder, even more unpretentious than Ledesma, who has the least star quality in the Fiorentina team, but he is reassuring. Prandelli once said before the game: "His defense is very good. Okay, but he's got some character on offense as well, so he doesn't give the team an imbalance."
As Prandelli said, Beckham has a very strong concept of "balance" in his mind. He does not have Fellaini's recovery ability and recovery speed, but he can also guarantee that after Maggio presses up, the right The road is still guarded. Compared with the past two games, Beckham's physical condition is also much better. In the 88th minute, he chased back to the penalty area to steal the ball, showing abundant physical strength.
With the support of abundant physical strength, Beckham can give the team relatively support no matter in offense or defense. blow.
** Appeared in the 69th minute, Degan took the ball from the middle and slanted his right rib. Beckham didn't run, paused, and then started to speed up to catch up. After a while, the opponent's defender approached and blocked the pass. On the line, Beckham played by ear and randomly chose a right-footed shot from the near corner. Buffon seemed to be unprepared for this. Beckham's shot went into the net. After scoring the goal, all the Fiorentina players ran up to hug He, Degan, Montolivo, Fellaini, everyone seems to be waiting for this moment.
Prandelli also said after the game: "For Beckham, this is a very important day. No matter how long we have him, during this time, I don't see any reason not to make full use of him. reason."
Compared with Manchester United and the England national team in the past, Beckham has changed his role very well. He has successfully become a "role player", or a "blue collar".
It's just that Fiorentina's tactics are more about ground coordination, and the "full moon scimitar" that people expected in the past did not get more opportunities to show its power. Beckham's efficiency in these few crosses is not high, but Beckham's real role now is to assist in offense and defense. He can be in place in defense, and can be a support point in offense. He can appear where he is most needed. He is not the "axis" of Florence's offensive and defensive system, but It is an important "part". As a once world-famous superstar, he can obey the coach's arrangement and execute meticulously, and can be willing to be a "part" of the team. This is what Prandelli calls selflessness.
There was also a detail in the game. In the 81st minute, Hamsik, who came off the bench, made a pass. Beckham desperately chased to the bottom line. Although he failed to catch the ball, his professionalism even attracted Applause from the Juventus fans.
Regarding whether Beckham's "two-month loan" will become a permanent transfer, as his performance is getting better day by day, there are more and more speculations. After some media suggested that "Beckham will transfer to Fiorentina", Florence did not make a real rebuttal.
Delaware only said: "He still has a contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy to abide by."
But this is not contradictory to what the media said, because some media said that according to the additional terms of the contract, Beckham's 5-year contract period is "3+2". After 3 years, he can choose to renew the contract for 2 years, or Do not choose.
Fiorentina coach Prandelli replied publicly: "If he can stay, I will be very happy. Who doesn't want such a player, but the future is up to him."
Beckham also answered this question after the game. He said: "I can't say now. Although my contract stipulates that I will stay here until March 9th, let us wait and see what happens in the future. Now, I Enjoyed the experience here, Fiorentina have shown that this team is one of the most important clubs in the world and winning will give us the confidence to continue."
After the game, Fiorentina executive chairman Parkinwa gave a more positive statement: "We are trying to keep Beckham. Regarding the transfer market, in front of the media, it is really a big deal to say east today and west tomorrow. It's an embarrassing thing."
In the past, Parkinwa has always said that Beckham will return to LA Galaxy after the loan period expires. It seems that he has overturned the past statement, and Beckham's plan to join Fiorentina permanently has gradually come true.
But from the current point of view, if Beckham's performance can satisfy the team, then Florence is likely to sign him this summer. If he can not only generate income for the team, but also help the team win, introduce him Why not?
Although many people doubt Beckham's current competitive value, no one seems to mind it. More people rejoice because of his idol status. As the highest-paid player in the world, Beckham is already an out-and-out A money-making machine without deductions.
With many sponsorship contracts, the 33-year-old Beckham is still the player with the most money in the world today. After taking off the Real Madrid jersey in 2007, Beckham left the European football, which symbolizes the highest level, and joined the United States. The mediocre LA Galaxy.
In people's eyes, going to California symbolizes entering a semi-retirement state. Although Beckham is still full of expectations for the England national team, in the Los Angeles Galaxy, a team that can't even make the playoffs, his The stars dimmed.
However, Beckham is still the world's biggest box-office star. During the interseason in the major leagues, he hopes to maintain his form to play for the national team, so Fiorentina accept the Englishman.
Both the Fiorentina club and Beckham's economic company "19 Entertainment" emphasized that they valued the competitive value of this loan.
Beckham himself has been trying to persuade the national team coach Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio Fabio.
But this operation is more like an important marketing for the player and the Fiorentina club. Since he announced that he will join Fiorentina on loan, in just over a month, it has actually brought Fiorentina immeasurable potential benefits. .
Now there is no need for Florence to doubt that they will benefit from it. Someone once disclosed: "Beckham's four seasons in Real Madrid brought a total of up to 225 million euros in revenue to the club, with an average of nearly 1.1 million euros per game. So the dozen or so games that Beckham played for Fiorentina will bring them at least 10 million euros in revenue."
The Englishman's sponsor is also aiming at this opportunity to let his brand enter the Italian market. Motorola has cooperated with Beckham since 2006. Jeremy Dell, the head of the marketing department at the time, said excitedly: "He will take us away. into Europe."
For Beckham's success, in terms of competitive viewing, Beckham is not the kind of team playmaker, but he can score wonderful free kicks from 30 meters away.
In terms of public influence, Beckham's handsome appearance can attract a large number of women.
Finally, from a global perspective, few football stars have gained such a wide range of international influence. His image is very popular on all continents. He is the first player to transcend the narrow competitive category and become an international star.
In addition, he has always maintained a very positive image: on the court, he never showed the arrogance of a superstar, but more like an ordinary player serving the team. In addition, he controlled his own in a very strict way. Privately, people don't see him as an immature young player.
For Beckham, coming to Italy this time to "not do business" can also add to his already expensive income. In addition to a monthly salary of about 100,000 euros, there is also 50% of the market income he brought to Florence. This is almost comparable to the contract he signed with the LA Galaxy.
The Englishman signed a five-year contract with the Galaxy, with an annual salary of about 4.1 million euros, in addition to the revenue from jerseys and tickets. This is definitely a win-win cooperation for Beckham and the Galaxy Club.
When joining from Real Madrid that year, the two sides announced a historic super contract: a period of 5 years, with a total value of 250 million US dollars.
Of course, this figure must include the sponsorship contracts that Beckham had before joining the Galaxy. Although the Englishman has earned the salary that most players envy for the past 10 years, he has actually gained more off the field.
Since signing the first sponsorship contract with brylcreem 12 years ago, Beckham has been associated with more and more brands, and the sponsorship fee has also risen with his influence.
Today his five main sponsors include adidas 3.15 million euros a year, Motorola 2.6 million euros, Armani 21 million euros, coty perfume and sharpie markers, which made him the world's highest paid player in 2008 with 31 million euros , ahead of Degan's 3,000 Euros, Ronaldinho's 24.1 million and Messi's 23 million.
But can all those numbers be compared to Beckham's final sporting bet, the World Cup in South Africa?
All the efforts that Beckham has put in now are all fighting for the last World Cup in his dream.
The next thing to do is the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage. Fiorentina has secured the top spot in the group. Prandelli can let more players with fewer chances to play. Beckham still has not entered the squad.
Facing the reporter's question, Prandelli said with a smile: "What David needs now is to find his status in the league. For the Champions League, I think he will get a chance after the start of the knockout round. At that time, he will show his strength." A stage of your own abilities!"
In the game against Steaua Bucharest, even if Fiorentina played with a full substitute lineup, it was not something the Romanian giants could resist. In the first and second half, Cavinaghi and Pazzini scored two goals respectively, and Steaua Bucharest was only at the end of the game. Just scored a face-saving goal.
In the 21st round of Serie A, Fiorentina beat Naples 2:1 at home. In the 47th minute, Degan's free kick crossed the crowd, and Cavinaghi scored from the back point.
At the beginning of the second half, Naples midfielder Vitale received a pass from the former Fiorentina player Donadell, and he passed and shot. Goalkeeper Frey couldn't react in time and leaked the ball into the near corner. The two sides drew 1:1.
In the 79th minute, Beckham and Degan kicked the wall together. Beckham dunked the Naples defender without waiting for the football to stop, but was tripped by the opponent. Fiorentina got a free kick.
This time, Degan once again gave the opportunity to Beckham, and Beckham lived up to expectations, kicking an iconic free kick and scoring directly through the net.
Four games, two goals, three assists, considering his current age, the ability that Beckham has shown, even the most demanding football commentators, there is no way to be harsh.
England star David Beckham has only been on loan at the Fiorentina club for a short time, but has hinted that he wants to stay. He said that here he can regain the kind of friendly atmosphere at his old club Manchester United.
"Playing here is every player's dream. I have a contract with the Galaxy and respect the club, but to play for Fiorentina, it's really special." Beckham also said Fiorentina reminded him, Witnessing his growth and fame, the Premier League overlord Manchester United, "This is very similar to Manchester United, it is the kind of tradition that a great club has, from the training ground to the stadium, you can feel that special atmosphere."
Beckham took the initiative to show his favor, and Fiorentina's executive chairman Pakinwa also immediately expressed his praise for Beckham, and said: "The period of Beckham's effectiveness at San Siro does not depend on the Rossoneri club, but on the It's up to Beckham's current club, LA Galaxy."
From the current point of view, the effect of Beckham's loan joining looks surprisingly good. In just four games, Beckham has scored two goals and contributed three assists for Viola.
"I'm happy for Beckham, because we have now proved that we want him as a football player, not for any other reason." Parkinwa said excitedly, "David is an excellent player." And he is very humble, will he stay with us? It depends on the owner of his contract. If the Galaxy insist on not letting him go, there is nothing we can do. A contract is a contract and it should be respected."
Obviously, the Los Angeles Galaxy is unwilling to see Beckham's departure. The team's CEO Tim Levick said: "Beckham has a contract with the Galaxy. Before he left, I had a relationship with him. Had a nice and honest conversation, he loves life in LA, his kids go to school here, no story, he's going back to the Galaxy eventually, he wants a better Galaxy team, we're going to have one Better team, David has no interest in leaving."
However, according to media reports, Beckham's agent has come to Florence this week to discuss the possibility of Beckham continuing to play in Italy.
Fiorentina may pay the Galaxy Club a liquidated damages of 5.5 million euros for Beckham's joining. Obviously, though, funding is not the most important issue. If Beckham can't convince the Galaxy, another feasible solution is that Beckham himself buys out his current contract with the Galaxy and joins Fiorentina with a free transfer.
Four games, two goals, three assists, it can be said that Beckham's results in Fiorentina are far better than expected, especially the second goal is the highly anticipated Moon Scimitar.
The ball went over the wall and spun directly to the near corner of the goal. No matter how hard Rubinho tried to save it, he could not stop the ball from flying into the goal.
Such a goal requires what kind of footwork and self-confidence. After the game, some media commented: "This goal seems to have shot through a hole in the goal post. From then on, he is no longer just an idol for girls."
In fact, Beckham almost scored a goal in the opening 20 seconds. At that time, the opposing defender made a pass error under the pressure of Degan. Flying to save the bottom line.
The pass that Beckham did not play in the previous rounds also began to show its power in this game. Just one minute after the goal, his cross from the right almost assisted Degan to score with a header from the center.
Immediately afterwards, Beckham's free kick from the left was rubbed by Kavinagi at the front point, and Digan, who followed up in the middle, was almost one-on-one, and he was not prepared enough to reach the ball.
Before the end of the game, Beckham's corner kick was snatched by Digan again, but unfortunately it was blocked by the defender in front of the goal.
In addition to his role in offense becoming more and more obvious, Beckham continued to invest in defense as always. He successfully tackled four times in the audience, each time causing applause from the home fans. He has quickly been accepted by Fiorentina fans.
With the rapid integration with his teammates, Beckham has been able to play the role of linker and transitioner in the midfield very well. Beckham is not good at dribbling, so he will not easily choose to break through, and for this reason , It is also very difficult to grab the ball from his feet. He always has a way to control the ball and give it to his teammates, but it is a big mistake to think that people who cannot pass others do not need to defend. Beckham Going in without the ball is definitely a new attack point for Fiorentina. Juventus suffered such a loss in the last round and were scored by Beckham.
In fact, Beckham's characteristics of first possession of the ball and not easily surpassing others are very suitable for Serie A, because in Serie A, breakthroughs with the ball are the most difficult.
This may be why Beckham can become another Englishman who has successfully integrated into Serie A after David Platt.
"If you want to play in Italy, you must have a good tactical quality. Serie A is very tactical. I already know this."
Another advantage of Beckham lies in his low-key and obedience. Although he bears the reputation of a superstar, he always regards himself as an ordinary player. This is what makes Beckham different from all stars.
Beckham can accept a substitute, can be replaced, and can even accept being banned in Real Madrid, and still work hard after the ban is over. This is what Prandelli said: "Any coach wants to have such a player."
Beckham's professional integrity is more admirable than his football skills, and there are not many such players in today's football. Beckham's low-key is reflected in all aspects. He even revealed that at home, he is the person with the lowest status: "My wife is more famous than me, but at home, the real commanders are the children."
"After scoring goals in two consecutive games, I found myself so happy, I was 15 years younger." Beckham scored again this time, and his goal may directly determine his future. destiny.
According to the contract, Beckham can propose a negotiation to terminate the contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy. Fiorentina is even ready to offer the Los Angeles Galaxy a symbolic compensation of 5 million. In any case, Fiorentina is working hard to permanently introduce Beckham. If we say, This practice was only a commercial behavior before and was not recognized by the fans. Now, this is what everyone expects, including Beckham himself.
After the game against Naples, Beckham made it clear: "Playing in Italy is the dream of all players."
According to media reports, Fiorentina's acquisition of Beckham has entered a critical stage. As long as the Los Angeles Galaxy nods, Beckham will go to his new club.
Fiorentina's executive chairman Pakinwa revealed that as long as the England star Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy reach an agreement on the transfer, the Fiorentina club will pay the leader.
"In the next few days, we will have substantive negotiations with his agent, including the issue of his salary."
With Beckham's performance getting better and better, the argument of "Beckham staying in Fiorentina" has once again become the focus of people. For the proposal to keep Beckham in Fiorentina, Galliani did not hide his enthusiasm. idea.
"If the Galaxy can be persuaded, then we will evaluate the situation and try to keep him. We will wait and see what happens, because if Beckham comes out of his contract, then we will wait to open up. The player himself wants to stay with us, he will be happy to be here because he is back at a big club and Beckham and his active people know that Fiorentina want to buy him permanently."
Coach Ancelotti said: "I want him to stay."
But LA Galaxy head coach and former U.S. national team coach Bruce Arena was annoyed by the proposal, saying: "We made an assessment of the situation, we accepted the loan, we did the best we could. Everyone knows we've done a good job morally and the only thing we can accept is a loan."
Although the United States has a tough attitude, however, the executive chairman of the Fiorentina club, Parkinwa, said that it is not impossible for Beckham to stay in Fiorentina.
"After March, anything can happen. If the player decides to stay, it will not be a loan. In that case, Fiorentina and Los Angeles Bank will start new negotiations. At present, Beckham is obviously Really enjoyed his time in Fiorentina."
What makes Beckham even more tempted is that England football coach Fabio Capello also said in an interview recently that Beckham's excellent state is a good thing for both Florence and the England team.
"Beckham's serious attitude towards training and games has set a good example for young players. He is a very competent professional footballer. During his time in Italy, his good performances were very important for Fiorentina and England. Good thing."
Capello also revealed that in the friendly match with the Spanish team, Beckham will represent the England team. For Beckham, representing the England team has double important meanings. Luo's approval, in addition, as long as he participates in more than two international competitions, then he will become the player with the most appearances on behalf of the England team.
In the 22nd round of Serie A, Fiorentina defeated Bologna 3:1 in an away game, continuing to consolidate their position at the top of the standings. Degan scored twice in this game, and Criscito scored the first in the league this season goal.
The game was forced to be postponed for 24 hours due to heavy snow. Due to the rain in the morning, the condition of the field was very bad. In the sixth minute of the game, Montolivo made a direct pass over the top, and Degan opened the scoring with a volley shot from the outside of his right foot.
In the 16th minute, Montolivo sent an overhead ball again, and Degan scored twice with an offside shot. This is his 25th goal in the league this season, although the number of goals is the same as in previous seasons Compared to, it has dropped a lot, but now no one can say ridiculous things like the "ninety minutes" scoring absurdity. Now Digan, although he has scored fewer goals, everyone can feel his efficiency. Higher and higher.
In the 52nd minute, Thiago Silva made a header to clear the siege. Bologna striker Miniazzini pulled back a point with a diagonal shot.
In the third minute of stoppage time in the second half, Beckham, who came off the bench, broke through Bambaldini and made a pass from the right. Digan headed the ball and assisted Criscito outflanked and scored an empty goal, 3:1.
Although Beckham did not score or assist in this game, he was very active on both ends of the offense and defense. According to the media, Fiorentina has reached an agreement with Beckham on the issue of the annual transfer salary. Los Angeles Galaxy can complete the permanent transfer if the negotiations are successful.
After the game against Bologna, Beckham also publicly stated: "I want to stay in Fiorentina for a longer time."
According to media reports, while Fiorentina was negotiating with Los Angeles Galaxy, they were also negotiating with Beckham. Signed until the summer of 2011.
In Florence's contract, there is another clause that is more attractive to Beckham, that is, the portrait right belongs to the individual. Although the annual salary of 4.5 million euros is not high in today's football, Beckham can use his portrait The right to get a lot of benefits, Florence finally won Degan in this way.
The media also disclosed that Fiorentina was going to offer a transfer fee of 5 million euros to Los Angeles Galaxy, prompting them to let Beckham go. passive.
After media reports, Los Angeles Galaxy coach Arena also softened his attitude: "We will take this matter seriously, consider all aspects, and make the final decision."
Apparently, Arenal's attitude has obviously relaxed. At present, it is generally believed that Beckham's stay in Florence is only a matter of time.
Beckham is very clear that if he can stay in Florence, he will have a better chance to represent England in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and in Florence, his economic interests have not been damaged in the slightest, so why not do it.
Beckham is making the last effort to participate in the World Cup, and Fiorentina are also sprinting for power, striving to realize their six-time crown plan that they formulated before the start of the season.
Now that the Italian Super Cup, European Super Cup, and World Club Cup are in hand, the other three events, Serie A, if Florence does not lose the chain, no one can stop them from winning the final championship.
The results of the first knockout round of the European Champions Cup have also come out. Fiorentina will face Sporting Lisbon from Portugal in the 1/8 finals. Although Sporting Lisbon is not bad in strength, compared with Fiorentina, they obviously do not have much. Competitiveness.
At the same time, the Coppa Italia has also started. Fiorentina will face Ascoli from Serie B in the 1/8 finals. If there is no accident in this game, Ascoli will not be able to stop Fiorentina from advancing.
