From the man behind the football king to the football king

When Manchester United defeated Leicester City at home and became the only team to win all the first three rounds of the Premier League and continue to lead the Premier League standings, Manchester United finally received good news again in the transfer market.

On Monday, August 28, the official website of the Premier League giant Red Devils Manchester United announced that Tottenham Hotspur's England international Harry Kane officially joined Manchester United on a four-year contract.

The announcement did not disclose Harry Kane's transfer price, but multiple media confirmed that Harry Kane's transfer price is approximately 120 million pounds.

Currently, Harry Kane's worth according to the famous magazine "German Transfer Market" is 70 million euros, which is equivalent to about 64.8 million pounds.

However, considering that Harry Kane has just turned 24 years old and his status as the number one player in the UK, everyone knows that once he moves to other Premier League teams, he will definitely set a jaw-dropping record.

Now, his transfer to Manchester United has been officially announced. The price of 120 million pounds has indeed more than doubled the transfer fee record for British players.

Previously, this record was held by Sterling. In July 2015, Manchester City spent 44 million pounds to introduce this talented forward from Liverpool. Including the floating clauses in the transfer agreement, Blue Moon finally paid 49 million pounds for the England international.

Of course, the pound sterling two years ago was worth a lot more than it is now. At that time, the exchange rate of the pound to the euro was as high as 1.42, but now it has dropped to 1.08.

However, although the transfer price equivalent to 130 million euros is astonishing, considering that Paris Saint-Germain poached Neymar from Barcelona for a record price of 222 million euros at the beginning of this month, the news of Kane's transfer to Manchester United is not It's not that shocking anymore.

However, this still makes the England forward the player with the third highest transfer fee in the history of world football, second only to Neymar with 222 million euros and Bruno with 200 million euros.

………………

On the same day of signing Harry Kane, Manchester United also announced that Kylian Mbappe, the talented forward of French champion Monaco, officially joined Manchester United. The two parties signed a five-year contract, and Mbappe's transfer price was 100 million pounds.

For this transfer price, the media in England think it is normal.

Although Mbappe is only 18 years old, he performed very well in Monaco last season. He was a major contributor to Monaco defeating Paris Saint-Germain to win the Ligue 1 championship and also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League. Coupled with his 18-year-old age, Manchester United can get Mbappe for 100 million pounds, which is already extremely cheap.

You know, Dembele, who performed worse than Mbappe in Dortmund, moved to Barcelona for a price of 105 million euros, which is equivalent to 97 million pounds.

Especially in the process of competing for Mbappe, Manchester United also faces competition from Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid. Neither of these two clubs are short of money.

According to media reports, Mbappe himself chose to refuse the invitation from Real Madrid because he believed that he could not compete with the BBC trio for the time being. It would be better to go to Manchester United or Paris Saint-Germain to play as a substitute at Real Madrid.

After all, these two teams can guarantee his main position after joining. This is very crucial for him as a young man.

………………

Originally, Mbappe was more inclined to join Manchester United. After all, it is clear that Manchester United is in urgent need of forwards. He can definitely guarantee the main position when he arrives at Manchester United.

Moreover, as a top club, Manchester United is obviously stronger than Paris Saint-Germain in terms of team heritage and influence in world football.

Of course, Manchester United's biggest attraction to Mbappe is Bruno, the European Ballon d'Or winner. There is a saying currently circulating in world football that a team with Bruno will definitely not lack championship honors.

Although Mbappe has won the Ligue 1 championship, in world football, the influence of the French Ligue 1 champion is definitely not as good as that of the Premier League champion. What's more, with the strength of Manchester United, it is very promising to compete for the Champions League championship.

But it is precisely because the whole world knows that Manchester United is short of forwards, and Paris Saint-Germain is also not short of money, so Monaco has been hanging on to the two teams, hoping to lose Mbappe, a talented forward. Under the circumstances, make as much money as possible.

You know, when Martial was sold to Manchester United two years ago, the then-unknown French forward earned Monaco 60 million euros.

In fact, this is also the case. Under the competition from Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United's transfer fee for Mbappé has increased from 60 million pounds to 100 million pounds.

However, at this time, Manchester United did not raise the price no matter what.

Even Paris Saint-Germain will no longer increase the price at this time!

After all, Mbappe's current value in the German transfer market is only 35 million euros. Manchester United's current offer of 108 million euros is already more than twice the premium. Even if Mbappe is a genius, this is already a huge risk. .

What's more, the owners behind Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are actually the same family.

………………

Manchester United's owner Prince Jassim is a member of the Qatari royal family, while Paris Saint-Germain is controlled by Qatar Sports Investment Fund and also has a background in the Qatari royal family.

Without knowing the situation, floods might have washed away the Dragon King Temple, but now that they knew it was their own family, the two clubs would naturally not compete maliciously.

In fact, this is because the two clubs are facing competition from Real Madrid, otherwise they would not necessarily raise the price to more than 100 million euros.

Monaco is also well aware of these situations, and both Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are very kind. After all, both companies have quoted sky-high prices of more than 100 million euros. If they really encounter a team like Barcelona, They will only encourage the players to go on strike behind the scenes to put pressure on their old club.

Of course, such an unethical approach may also lead to backlash. For example, Barcelona has been trying to pry away Paris Saint-Germain this summer, trying to poach Verratti. Paris Saint-Germain warned several times, but Barcelona remained indifferent, which directly angered Paris Saint-Germain. Then the result was that Paris Saint-Germain directly paid Neymar to send himself to the Parc des Princes by paying the release fee.

Yes, Paris Saint-Germain did not pay Neymar's release fee directly to Barcelona. They paid the money to Neymar, then let the Brazilian buy out his contract, and then joined Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent. .

It’s simply a disgusting way to the extreme!

The moment Neymar bought himself out, I'm afraid many people in the Barcelona management were so angry that they wanted to vomit blood!

………………

Seeing that Monaco could no longer let Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, two teams controlled by Qatari capital, fight each other, they had no choice but to let the players choose between the two clubs.

In the end, Mbappe chose Manchester United, which has a brighter future.

Then, two clubs, Manchester United and Monaco, simultaneously announced the transfer of the talented French striker.

With two consecutive official announcements of over 100 million pounds, Manchester United's operations shocked the world of football.

Although the news of Neymar joining Paris Saint-Germain is more shocking, the fact that two top stars transferred to the same club on the same day for a value of more than 100 million is also a precedent in world football.

At this moment, the whole world knows what inhumanity is! What does it mean to have money and really be able to do whatever you want!

And a small country in the Middle East called Qatar also let the whole world see their strength and the strength of money!

At this moment, Qatar also convinced the world that they really have the ability to host the World Cup.

Although it obtained the qualification to host the 2022 World Cup seven years ago, the real entry into the World Cup cycle in Qatar will have to be after the end of the World Cup in Russia next year.

Although Qatar has begun to prepare intensively for the World Cup five years later, the world's doubts about them are deep-rooted.

Now, the Qataris have declared to the world in another way and have initially won the world's trust.

………………

Two consecutive super signings of more than 100 million pounds have also allowed Manchester United's funds used in the transfer market this summer to soar from the last place in the Premier League BIG6 to the first position.

Although Manchester United only introduced 4 players this summer, their signing funds have reached 276 million pounds, surpassing their local rival Manchester City who spent 225 million pounds on signings.

However, Manchester United's actions are not over yet, because on the transfer deadline, which is 11 o'clock in the evening on August 31, local time in the UK, Manchester United once again officially announced a transfer, that is, Manchester United's former Premier League champion Les Special City has introduced Algerian national Riyad Mahrez!

Although neither club announced the amount of the transfer, the vast media still reported on the transfer, and the reported amount was all on the same figure: 60 million pounds!

Different channels, the same amount, that means this number is very close to the truth, or even the truth!

With the joining of Mahrez, the amount of money Manchester United spent on signings in the transfer market this summer has officially exceeded the 300 million pound mark!

Manchester United has thus become the first team in the history of world football to spend more than 300 million pounds on signings in a single transfer window!

Last year, Manchester United became the first team in the history of world football to spend more than 300 million euros on signings in a transfer window. Now they have once again set another record, that is, changing the unit of funds from euros to GBP!

However, if these transfer fees are converted into euros, Manchester United's expenditures in the two transfer windows are not much different. Last year they spent 341 million euros, this year they spent 363 million euros, an increase of only 22 million euros.

It's just that the money Manchester United spends is basically pounds!
