Chapter 83 Money is used to burn!

Shaq was having a great time in Hangzhou City. Zong Wan'er took him around the city all day long. This city with outstanding people and beautiful places not only has scenery, but also countless beauties for people to enjoy. Shaq was a little overjoyed.

Zong Xingyun and his wife accepted the fact that their daughter is married, but they still hoped that Zong Wan'er could complete her studies and then hold a grand wedding. They were temporarily scheduled for next summer. Shaq was a little worried that she would play for the European Cup for England next summer. Zong Xingyun and his wife disagreed and said that they would go with their daughter to cheer for Shaq and then go back to China to get married.

Shaq still respects Chinese traditions in his heart. It is the order of his parents. The matchmaker said that Shaq himself had no family, so he simply followed his father-in-law's arrangements.

Shaq was having fun here, and seeing that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were doing well, while Simon Grayson was flying all over Europe. The gap in Manchester United's first-team lineup was still very large, and he needed to make an idea to clean up the players. He was so busy.

Van Persie has reached an agreement with Inter Milan to transfer to Italy for £7 million, while Hernandez was attracted by Atletico Madrid and bought the "Little Pea". He looked down on his face, and the others rushed to ask for the 27-year-old Mexican striker!

What made Simon Grayson speechless was the purge of Vidic. The 33-year-old veteran was attracted by the Gunners Arsenal. Steve Bruce won the former world-class central defender for 1.8 million pounds, which made Londoners feel lucky.

Arsenal fans were very excited about Vidic's arrival. When they thought that their team's most unreliable defense line had finally improved, the English media was lamenting that "Brutal Simon" was high-end, elegant and upscale. Even veterans like Vidic have been cleaned up. This season, Manchester United sold Van Persie, Hernandez, Valencia, and Ashley Yang, and these were still stars that other teams were still jealous of. What kind of super team should the "Brutal Simon" build!?

Manchester United fans were facing such a brutal purge of "Brutal Simon", but this time they seemed very calm, just waiting for the team's big moves in the transfer market, a champion coach like Simon Grayson. Obviously, he will not just clean up the players, he will also buy more powerful stars to strengthen the team.

Just like last summer, Manchester United sold Phil Jones, Velbeck, Asamoa, Fletcher, Fabio, Rafael and others, but they were not idle in the transfer market. Shaq's arrival was the club's biggest gain last summer, and now it seems that it is the best signing deal in Manchester United's history.

The buyout of Di Maria is obviously also Simon Grayson's brilliant work. "Angel" contributed 2 goals and 16 assists to Manchester United in 45 games. The passing success rate of up to 88% is also very rare. Manchester United only spent 8.5 million pounds, which is quite cheap.

If Shaq and Di Maria are still successful transfers that people can expect, then "brutal Simon" spent £20 million to buy Jose? Angel, £26 million to buy Papadopoulos, and £22 million to buy Vanderville. These three transfer transactions were really a bit inflated at the time.

But if you look at it a year later, Papadopoulos has become Manchester United's back-defense back, his targeting, filling up and fierceness, making him a more reliable central defender than Subotic.

Van der Welter's goal and 10 assists, Jose Angel's goal and 16 assists are enough to show the contribution of these two full-backs in offense, not to mention that their greater contribution is still in defense.

As it turns out, "Brutal Simon" is a courageous and accurate head coach who dares to spend money on those not-known powerful players. As long as that is what he needs.

This summer...will Simon Grayson buy some such powerful players!?

With the questions and expectations in their hearts, Manchester United fans were waiting quietly. But they never expected that the first transfer deal announced by the club they waited for would be like this...sensation!

On June 22, Manchester United officially announced the joining of Gareth Bale. The transfer fee of 40 million pounds is far less shocking than when Bale joined Real Madrid. However, Manchester United fans did not think so. They all remember that their team was very close to the Welsh left king during the "Old Sir" Ferguson era, but in the end they missed it. However, they did not expect that when Bale was 26 years old, Manchester United got him, which was obviously in the best condition... Gareth Bale!

On June 23, Manchester United announced the signing deal again. This time they bought Sunderland's 22-year-old black central defender Andre Westorm. This Liverpool-born central defender was unable to play. After transferring to Sunderland for 2 million pounds last season, his performance was reasonable, but the "brutal Simon" bought him for 6 million pounds. Could it be that this young man should be used as a supplement to Vidic's departure?

Wesdom...will he do it!?

The fans didn't wait long. Just three days later, on June 26, Manchester United announced that they had reached a deal with Espanyol, buying Uruguay's 19-year-old talented central defender Hernan Rivero.

Now, the mystery was finally solved!

After a little understanding, Manchester United fans were quite satisfied. Hernan Rivero, a talented Uruguayan central defender, does have huge room for growth, and it is very likely to become a world-class central defender like Vidic.

The English media now understand what Simon Grayson wants to do. "The brutal Simon" has begun to build a ladder talent reserve and prepare for Manchester United's future!

So next, Simon Grayson should still continue to buy young players!?

As expected, on June 29, Manchester United officially announced another transfer deal, with Florentino's 22-year-old main midfielder Lorenzo Krissettigue joining Manchester United for £16 million!

Lorenzo Crisettigue, a young Italian midfielder, is quite popular. The Italian star who was born in Inter Milan did not play in Inter Milan. He played as a left forward at the time. He performed very well as a front midfielder, but after he transferred to Brescia, he was transformed into a midfielder. With his excellent passing awareness and accurate prediction ability, he became a representative of the new generation of organizing midfielders in Italy, and was even known as "the player closest to Pirlo."

Later, Lorenzo Crisettigue was spotted by Lady Lorenza and invested 8 million euros in Purple Lily. In two years, the Italian midfielder grew rapidly. He played 19 games for Fiorentina from 2013 to 2014, with 8 assists per game, 5.5 steals per game, and 33 games from 2014 to 2015, scoring 1 goal and 10 assists per game, and 4.63 steals per game.

It can be seen that although Lorenzo Crissetig is not a traditional midfielder, his defensive ability is not weak. He is a new star who really knows how to play with his mind on the court. He has played for the Italian youth team 36 times. There is no suspense in becoming an Italian international in the future. Even the current Italian national team coach Allegri said, "Lorenzo must be a core player. He is still too young now. If he is more mature, he can play for the national team."

There are many teams interested in Lorenzo Krissettigue, but no one is as willing to spend money as Manchester United. 16 million pounds is only 20 million euros. It is a bit difficult for other Italian teams to spend so much money at once, not to mention that the "Red Devils" were originally the champion of the Premier League and the Champions League champion. Lorenzo Krissettigue also yearned for continuing to improve his level in the world's No. 1 League and play in the Champions League. It would be perfect to be able to compete with world-class stars.

After buying four players in a row, Manchester United has spent about 73.5 million pounds or about 90 million euros. Even if the 27 million pounds sold for players were hooked, they have invested 46.5 million pounds. But everyone knows that Manchester United's signings should not be over yet. They have too few attackers on the right side of the frontcourt. The "brutal Simon" will definitely have actions in the future, and maybe... a big move!

The media really guessed it right. Since Simon Grayson got back from Italy, his footsteps have been staying in London. Of course, he did not reminisce about Mourinho or Steve Bruce, but came here for the Spanish winger Juan Mata, who the "Blues" didn't want.

Mata's performance at Chelsea is actually not bad. Although Espanyol is a little shorter and weaker, her skills are not mentioned. She just contributed goals and assisted double-double to the "Blues" last season, but this Spanish winger is not the type Mourinho likes.

It has been a long time since the Portuguese madman doesn't like Mata. This season, Mourinho bought his fellow villager Pizzi from Real Betis and then bought Mid-off Sigurosen, and Chelsea has no place for Mata.

However, it is not that easy to sell Mata. After all, the Spanish winger's value is there. Chelsea spent 22 million pounds when he bought him from Valencia. Now it is even more because Mata's outstanding performance has reached 26 million pounds. This player is not so easy to sell unless Chelsea admits how much money they lose.

Fortunately, Simon Grayson needs a small and skilled winger like Mata in his tactics. Although Mata is a left-footed player, he can play almost all positions in the frontcourt and perform well, which makes the "brutal Simon" interested.

On July 3, Manchester United officially announced the joining of Spanish winger Juan Mata, with the transfer fee of...31 million pounds!
