Icardi's transfer deal is finalized.

At the beginning, Inter Milan hoped to buy Icardi through a little cash plus a lot of voucher players.

But this approach was bluntly rejected by Sampdoria.

So Inter Milan modified the conditions, a little more cash plus a small amount of voucher players.

Sampdoria rejected the model anyway.

When Inter Milan took Pazzini from Sampdoria before, it was a little cash plus Biabiani and another young player as a voucher. As a result, Biabiani's contribution to the team was basically It's not necessary, and the young player can't play at all.

For Sampdoria, they don't need vouchers or player exchanges now, because Inter Milan will definitely not let go of the players they fancy.

So instead of asking for a bunch of players who are not needed at all, it is better to ask for cash directly.

So Sampdoria only wants cash in the Icardi transfer deal.

They are not afraid of offending Inter Milan and making Inter Milan give up the introduction of Icardi-to be honest, they are still looking forward to this result. In this way, Icardi finally stayed in Sampdoria, and it cannot be said that Sampdoria refused to let him go, but that Inter Milan failed to meet Sampdoria's requirements.

Is Sampdoria's request outrageous? Not necessarily.

Since it is not outrageous and this is not enough, it is not Sampdoria's problem.

Anyway, Icardi stayed, formed a strike partner with Gao Zheng, and then led the team to the Champions League.

No harm for the Sampdoria team.

But if Inter Milan must take Icardi away, then come up with a price that can satisfy Sampdoria. Sampdoria will naturally let Icardi receive the cash.

It took a long time like this, and finally Inter Milan decided to buy half of Icardi's ownership with 15 million euros in cash-originally Inter Milan planned to directly buy out Icardi, but Sampdoria proposed The cash requirement makes it difficult for Inter Milan to take all the ownership of Icardi at one time. They can only retreat and buy half of Icardi's ownership first. Half ownership subject to negotiation.

At that time, Inter Milan can either choose to buy out the other half of Icardi's ownership, or choose to give up this half of the ownership, or transfer their own injured half of the ownership-and it all depends on Icardi's personal performance.

Icardi's agent, Marano, was very angry about this situation. It was originally a one-time buyout, which would never cause future troubles. As a result, Icardi's fate is still pending...

But Icardi seemed very calm, and in turn comforted his agent: This is exactly the result he wanted.

Use one season's performance to prove that he is no worse than Gao Zheng, so as to completely conquer Inter Milan, which still has doubts about his future.

For Icardi, that's what he hopes for.

So in the end, all three parties reached a consensus on the transfer. Icardi transferred to Inter Milan with a transfer fee of 115 million euros, but in fact his worth was 30 million euros.

As a rookie who only played one season in Serie A,

This worth is already against the sky.

And this is all in exchange for Icardi's 15 league goals last season.

Icardi's agent Marano has every reason to believe that if Gao Zheng hadn't robbed too much of the limelight, Icardi's worth would be far more than 30 million.

It is said that Gao Zheng is worth forty-five million now, and Icardi should be worth about the same.

Thirty million euros may be considered a "huge sum" for Sampdoria now, but he believes that next summer, when Inter Milan buys another version of ownership for 1,500, Sampdoria will definitely Will regret their decision today, because 30 million euros is very cheap!

When the news of Icardi's transfer to Inter Milan was officially announced, it aroused heated discussions among the media and fans.

A few days after Polly transferred, Icardi left again. It should have been a happy and hopeful summer, but now the Sampdoria fans are not happy at all.

Although they know the current situation of the team, it is impossible not to sell players.

But the departure of the team's second shooter still makes many Sampdoria fans worry about their future in the new season.

In a program on Channel 5 Italy in the evening, a group of guests were specially invited to discuss Icardi's transfer to Inter Milan.

Although everyone focused on Gao Zhen last season, Icardi did not receive much attention.

But now, after leaving Sampdoria, he seems to have earned the attention back. Even his transfer can make the TV station set up a program just for him.

As soon as those expert guests talked about Icardi on the TV program, they thought it was a huge loss for Sampdoria to let go of Icardi, which would have an immeasurable negative impact on the team.

Some guests even thought that Icardi's departure was a negative thing for Gao Zheng.

"...Why Gao was able to score so many goals last season has a lot to do with Icardi being at the top to attract the opponent's defensive attention. Now that Icardi has left, if Sampdoria is in the center If there are no signings in the position, then Gao has to step up, which is completely inconsistent with his characteristics, and he is deeply trapped in the opponent's intensive defense, so how can Gao show a decent performance?"

The guest talked eloquently, and finally said with certainty: "So last season, everyone praised Gao and believed that Gao was the core soul of Sampdoria, but I think everyone underestimated Icardi's contribution to the team. Contribution, I think Icardi is the core figure of Sampdoria!"

"Hey! This is so shameless!" Borata shouted in front of the TV.

The son next to him curled his lips and said, "Dad, you have to know that Channel 5 belongs to Berlusconi. Isn't it normal for them to say such things?"

"It's disgusting!" Borata said angrily. "Anyone with a discerning eye can see who is the core, only the blind and idiots don't!"

The guests on TV continued to discuss that Icardi and Polly left Sampdoria one after another and switched to the Milan duo.

"...Yes, after the start of the new season, Inter Milan does not qualify for the European Cup, and AC Milan does not qualify for the Champions League. But so what? Whether it is Poli or Icardi, both teams in the city of Milan , This fully illustrates a problem-even if Sampdoria has qualified for the Champions League, they are far less attractive among the players than the Milan duo. What is this called? This is called 'voting with your feet'! In front of century-old giants , Sampdoria is just an upstart..."

Another guest also expressed his opinion: "Although Gao said at the end of last season that Sampdoria will not repeat the same mistakes this season, I think that is just his wishful thinking. Football is a team sport. Well, the team's affairs are not up to him alone. They wanted Sampdoria to qualify for the Champions League once, but they didn't even make it through the qualifying rounds. Do you think they are wronged?"

The guest laughed, and the others also laughed together, and the scene was full of joy.

"Hey, by the way, if Sampdoria is really the same as before and didn't even qualify for the Champions League, then I wonder if Gao will regret not leaving this summer..."

Borata couldn't listen anymore, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, and the guest's words stopped abruptly.

"It's you who should regret it! Idiots!" he yelled at the TV that had been turned off.

Afterwards, he was still angry while sitting on the sofa, his chest rose and fell violently, making his son very worried: "Dad, please relax..."

"Relax? I can only relax when the league starts!"

Seeing his father blowing his beard and staring, his son shut his mouth wisely, he was afraid that if he continued to speak, he would become his father's punching bag.

He had no choice but to flee in a hurry, leaving only his father sitting on the sofa and sulking, the heavy panting sound could be heard clearly through a door...
