The Dorchester Hotel is located east of Hyde Park, famous for Churchill meeting Eisenhower here during World War II.

The hotel's Alan Ducas Restaurant is one of the most famous restaurants in London.

Here, guests can leisurely enjoy the delicious food provided by the restaurant while enjoying the beautiful Hyde Park scenery without blind spots, which is an undeniable temptation for anyone.

At lunch, Gao Han met the long-standing legendary Abramovich in the luxurious private room of the Alan Ducas Restaurant.

The Russian rich man is not alone. He brought his friend Pini Zahavi, investment consultant Kesh Harris, right-hand assistant Marina Granovskiya, and assisted him in acquiring the team. Current Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck.

The group enjoyed lunch in the restaurant through the beautiful scenery of Hyde Park outside the window.

From the first meeting, Abramovich gave Gao Han the feeling of being a polite British gentleman.

But as Mendes said before, he has been deliberately hiding the captivating momentum in himself.

Every Russian oligarch is a fight from the sea of ​​swords, guns and fire, and is a powerful person who is decisive and decisive.

It is said that when Abramovich decided to acquire Chelsea, it only took twenty minutes to negotiate, which shows how courageous he is. However, due to the haste, many details were not handled, which made former Chelsea chairman Bates secretly cheat.

For example, Chelsea can only play in the League Cup in the new season, with the sudden transfers of Hasselbaink and Glenshare, and Chelsea in addition to the debt of 80 million pounds, it is said that there is also a hidden debt.

But as Mendes said, it is too common to play with the Premier League, which is good at playing with capital operations.

What's more, it's not a big deal for a rich man of Abramovich at the level.

"Mr. Gao Han, I believe that Jorge has already mentioned the specific matters to you. Please rest assured that the management and I will unconditionally support you in coaching the team. You are fully responsible for the team's transfer operation and others will assist you from the side."

Abramovich made a promise in person in loud voice.

This reassuring Gao Han, "Thank you."

"It's almost July now, and I'm wondering if you have any specific ideas?"

After Abramovich asked this, the other people in the box immediately looked over.

"Of course." Gao Han nodded, "I have a preliminary understanding of the team's situation. I hope to streamline the team's existing lineup, and then introduce strong players in a targeted manner to enhance the team's strength."

Abramovich nodded, "How many stars in the team, what are you going to do with it?"

As soon as the Russian finished speaking, Marina Granovskiya, who was sitting next to him, took the initiative to accept the conversation, "Roman means that Zora, Deselli and Petit are all heroes and veterans of the team, and are famous European stars. Should we keep it with all our might?"

Gao Han understood the meaning. Abramovich wanted to form a star-studded team, similar to Real Madrid, all of which were stars, so he wanted to keep these old stars.

But this obviously does not conform to Gao Han's idea of ​​forming a team.

"I don't think so." Gao Han shook his head politely, "I think what we need is a competitive team."

After a pause, Gao Han saw that Abramovich and others had no statements, so he continued to speak.

"I believe everyone is familiar with the situation of Chelsea in the past few years. It has introduced many balloon stars and veterans from the European continent. This has indeed helped Chelsea a lot, but the problem is also serious, because we all know that although veterans are experienced, it is difficult for them to maintain their level and form throughout the season in the Premier League where competition is so fierce."

"We Chinese have an old saying, "Soldiers are more expensive than elites, so my idea is to streamline the team's lineup and send players that do not meet the team's development in the next two years to leave the team. At the same time, we will introduce high-level players to improve the team's competitiveness in the shortest time to meet the requirements of the Premier League and European arena in the new season."

Although Gao Han's words were somewhat in conflict with Abramovich's ideas, they were also reasonable.

After hearing this, the Russians nodded and agreed without thinking much.

"Then what do you think of Shevchenko and Henry?"

Gao Han smiled slightly, "All the top scorers in the world, and it is hard for any head coach to refuse."

The Russian smiled slightly, "I am very familiar with Shevchenko. I will come forward and invite him to Chelsea. There should be no problem. As for Henry..."

"I can go and test Arsenal's intentions." Pini Zahavi volunteered.

Gao Han looked at the two people in front of him, nodded and smiled, "I think it's harder to convince Arsenal to let Henry go. As for Shevchenko... I'm honest, after being seriously injured last season, I doubt whether he can return to the peak."

In fact, even in the Champions League final, Ancelotti chose Inzaghi instead of Shevchenko.

And it turns out that Da Inzaghi's performance throughout the season is indeed better than Shevchenko.

With Shevchenko's technical characteristics, injuries have a great impact on him, and the characteristics of the Premier League and Serie A are completely different. Gao Han is a little worried that even if Shevchenko is willing to transfer, it is probably difficult for him to reappear in the Premier League.

Of course, when he reaches his level, he will be superstars everywhere he goes.

Abramovich heard Gao Han’s implicit meaning, “What do you mean?”

"Instead of spending time on superstars, it's better to bring in players with strength and easier operation to avoid recreating the mistakes of Real Madrid last season."

During the summer transfer period last season, Real Madrid focused all their attention on Ronaldo, instead ignoring the signings in the midfield and defense, which directly led to the team's poor performance throughout the season.

Finally reached the winter break and introduced Woodgate, the team's performance stabilized, but as a result, the English central defender was a glass man. The Madrid derby was injured during the war and directly ruined the entire season.

Even in the early stages of this season, it is still unknown whether it can make a comeback smoothly.

Abramovich valued Gao Hanzheng, but after hearing this, he did not object and nodded on the spot.

"Okay, the transfer market operation this summer is fully entrusted to you, and we all listen to you."

As soon as the boss made a statement, everyone else followed suit.

"Then don't worry, I promise that Chelsea will definitely become the most competitive team in the Premier League in the new season."

"Haha, okay, I never doubt your strength!"

…………

…………

"His ambition is indeed very big."

On the way to leave the Dorchester Hotel and back to the Ritz Hotel, Gao Han shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"We need to have a star lineup of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid's results..."

Gao Han sighed softly, "How can such a good thing be in the world?"

Mendes drove in the driver's seat and laughed and said, "Didn't he listen to you in the end?"

Gao Han nodded, and Abramovich indeed followed suit.

"By the way, Pini Zahavi just gave me a list of players. If you have time, you can see."

Mendes pointed to a dark document in the back row, "He is a friend of Abramovich, who will come to the Premier League to acquire the team because of his suggestion. He has a lot of influence on Abramovich, if possible..."

Mendes didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.

Pini Zahavi is an agent, and his purpose is very simple, he wants to make money.

Chelsea has made a lot of signings, and if he doesn't get a share of the pie, it's unreasonable in any case.

Judging from his influence on Abramovich, it is best not to offend such a person easily, and to comfort him if he can.

"I understand, I'll take a look back." Gao Han nodded.

Mendes also understood Gao Han, "You should understand that this is London, and Chelsea is not Atletico Madrid. Even to some extent, this is the normal working environment for European head coaches."

Gao Han understands.

European professional football is like a world of fame and fortune, mixed with various interest demands, including players, agents, management, investors, and fans...

As the team's head coach, it can almost be said to be the focus of all interests.

This requires the head coach to fully consider the interests of all parties in order to stabilize the situation and allow the team to play in a stable environment and atmosphere and play its strongest strength.

"Is there anything I need to help?" Mendes asked with concern.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

Now almost the entire Chelsea's reconstruction and revival are under Gao Han. Although it has great power, the pressure is equally astonishing.

Gao Han thought for a while, "The team's right-back needs to sign ups, please help me travel to Portugal."

"Paul Ferrera?" Mendes immediately thought of the player.

Gao Han has been paying attention to Paul Ferreira for two or three years. Since he was in Setubal, Mendes has introduced him to Gao Han, but because of Dario Serner and Roberto, Gao Han did not introduce Ferreira.

Last summer, Ferreira transferred from Setubal to Porto and performed well, successfully helping Porto win the Porto Super League championship and also win the League Cup championship, making it very obvious.

So, Gao Han meant to take him to Stamford Bridge.

Mendes is Ferreira's agent, and I believe that as long as you give money, Porto will not have any problems.

Chelsea's right-back is a tunnel, and Gao Han hopes Ferreira can fill it.

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Mendes runs faster than anyone else as long as it is a profitable business.

Gao Han thought for a while, "I plan to go back to Madrid, and you can arrange it for me."

"Atlético Madrid?"

"Well, and I'm going to meet Aragones."

When he was just a newcomer, Gao Han felt that the team should have players he knew and would be able to use them easily, so it is inevitable to go to Atletico Madrid to introduce players.

Anyway, Atletico Madrid needs to sell players in exchange for cash. Instead of selling them to others, it is better to sell them to Gao Han.

At least, Gao Han must give enough transfer fees.

As for meeting Aragones, Gao Han wanted to talk to him about the future of a player.

I just hope this old man is not too stubborn!
Chapter completed!
