For newly promoted teams in the new season, when starting their recruitment plan, the first thing they need to do is to strengthen their midfield and backcourt personnel.

The team's goal is to avoid relegation. Only by establishing a firm foothold in the new season can it attract more players to join.

After all, no one wants the team they join to fall out of the secondary league in the second year.

When Leicester City held a meeting, the smug chairman Vichai believed that the team would enter the Premier League as champions, and the goal for the new season was not just to avoid relegation.

Qualification for the UEFA Cup was mentioned above the conference.

When the team's head coach Pearson heard this goal, he glanced at the assistant coach and twitched the corners of his mouth subtly.

Since the club has such high goals, as head coach Pearson is willing to try and work hard.

However, when he came up with a signing plan, the club's top management said nothing.

how?

Do you want the horse to run, but also want the horse not to eat grass?

Pearson could see the stinginess of the top managers in their silent faces.

"If we don't give money, how can we lead this team?"

After finishing the high-level meeting, Pearson slammed the signing plan in his hand on his desk.

Let him lead the team to avoid relegation, even if he doesn't pay a penny or buy a single player, he can still do it.

However, if you want to achieve a better ranking, you should not recruit players who have performed well in the top leagues.

Europa League? Don’t even think about it.

Assistant teacher Craig picked up the document and looked at it, his face also changed slightly.

Only 15 million euros of transfer funds,

At most two players can be signed, and they may be marginal players.

If other positions need to be filled, they can only be rented.

Craig also sighed and said: "Nigel, I have the above idea. We have just been promoted to the Super League, and the outside world is not optimistic about our ability to attract money. Our broadcast revenue and advertising expenses are not as good as those of strong teams.

."

Pearson also knows that operating a team requires a lot of funds. It is difficult for the club to increase capital investment and buy players just by relying on ticket and advertising revenue.

"But, are you kidding me to spend such a small amount of money to qualify for the UEFA Cup?"

At this moment, Pearson had the slightest feeling that the club was making things difficult for him.

"If you don't have money, you have to do it without money. As long as we succeed in relegation, the superiors will never blame us."

Korek has served here for a long time and knows the thoughts of these senior officials.

They know the team's difficulties, but they can't pity you.

Once you take pity on you and lower your goals, what else will the players have to work hard for?

Pearson stood in front of the window, smoked a cigarette hard, and pressed the cigarette butt firmly in the ashtray.

"No matter what, let's first discuss cooperation with the players we plan to recruit according to needs. Then we will go to other teams to look at free agents. Finally, we will transfer a few players from the echelon."

After saying this call, Pearson still felt uneasy, his chest felt as if it was blocked by a stone, and his mind was in a mess, but he had to calm himself down.

After a day of screening, Pearson focused on the forwards.

The so-called good steel is used in the blade.

Only Nugent and Taylor in the team have played in the Premier League, but Taylor is 33 years old and has rarely played in the Championship this season, let alone the Premier League.

Vardy performed strongly, but it is still questionable whether he can adapt quickly as he has never participated in the top league.

Therefore, it is necessary to introduce a forward with good scoring ability.

In order to avoid being like this season, after Vardy was injured, the team was in a state of weakness for a long time.

Ulloa, who played for Almeria in La Liga, came into Pearson's sight.

This player has scored 14 goals in 35 games for Brighton in the British Championship this season.

As a high center forward, Ulloa has excellent header ability.

With a strong body, he can not only stay in the penalty area, but also retreat to defend, organize passes, and has comprehensive foot skills.

This season, Brighton lost miserably to Derby County in the promotion play-offs and failed to reach the top spot. Ulloa already intends to leave.

It is not difficult to sign him.

Leicester City's midfield lineup is relatively intact this season.

Among the regular main players, only Lloyd Dell left the team when his contract expired, which has little impact and there is no need to spend a lot of money on signings.

On the back line, the defense headed by Morgan ranks third in terms of goals conceded, but facing the Premier League's attacking line, it is difficult to guarantee a foolproof performance.

QPR defender Simpson is a pragmatic player who can play in the middle or wide. He came from Manchester United's youth training and is familiar with the rhythm of the Premier League.

For these two players, Korek estimates that he will have to spend 12 million euros. With 3 million euros left, it will be difficult to buy suitable players.

The money can only be used to rent players and strengthen the depth of the bench.

After finalizing the signings, it is time to slim down the team.

Fringe players who didn't play much last season left the team on loan or by letting them transfer on their own.

Otherwise, they will be demoted to the echelon.

Finally, the young players from the U21 team and the youth army will be added to the first team roster.

Young players like Mahrez have already confirmed their spots in the first team.

Pearson's son James also occupied a spot after returning from training.

At this time, a team has reached 30 players and is in a saturated state.

"Nigel, Luo performed well in the last few games."

Craig reminded: "I have received offers from several teams to loan Ronaldo."

Among the echelon players, Rossi is the only player who has played in the British Championship.

Craig didn't understand why he wasn't selected.

Pearson thought for a while and said: "I am also hesitant. Luo's performance is indeed good, but his technical characteristics may be difficult to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League."

Although Rossi has a good one-touch ability, it is difficult for him to gain a foothold in the Premier League without his physical and speed advantages.

Center?

You can't get the ball with your back.

forward?

No speed, no breakthrough.

Although he can perform well in a few games in the English Championship, it does not mean that he can do it in the Premier League.

A few games can't explain anything.

Besides, the task assigned by the club this time was quite heavy, so he couldn't be careless.

"Then what you mean is...renting it out and training outside for two years?"

Pearson is also in a dilemma. He likes high center forwards with strong bodies and heading abilities. Rossi's characteristics are difficult to integrate into his tactical system.

Delegating it to other teams for training and observation is a win-win situation for the team and Rossi.

But if I really want to rent him out, I am a little reluctant to let him go.

After all, Rossi's magical performance was an indispensable factor in the team's success in winning the championship.

Staying in the team may come in handy when the team faces a personnel crisis.

Doesn’t the club still have a budget of several million?

Wouldn't it be better to use this money to keep these young players in the team than to return them to these businessmen?

After adding Rossi's name, the final 31-man first-team roster was confirmed.
Chapter completed!
