Chapter 560
So Falcao's transfer went smoothly, and Li Yi also found that Falcao didn't seem to have a special agent, so Corleone immediately made a move.
In the end, the Colombian striker joined Leeds United for 300 million euros, and this transfer was not only the first but also the last for Leeds United this winter, because Leeds United has more important things to do next.
League No.20 second round, this is Guardiola's last game at Leeds United. Just before this game, Leeds United and Barcelona formally reached an agreement on the stay of head coach Guardiola.
300 million pounds, this is the termination fee paid by Barcelona, and this termination fee is still left after Leeds United bought Falcao. As for the personal treatment of Guardiola and Barcelona, it has also been negotiated, so the two sides are waiting for the end of the game.
But for now, the players and fans don't actually know it yet. Although the connection between Barcelona and Guardiola appeared very early, it was because it was passed on for too long and too many times that no one really took it seriously.
In fact, just before Leeds United's away game at Derby County, Barcelona officially announced that the team's head coach Frank Rijkaard had left.
Regarding this news, the Barcelona fans were very calm. It is really that Rijkaard's performance in recent years has been unsatisfactory, not to mention the media. They have been copying things about Rijkaard's dismissal.
For Barcelona fans, Catalonia and even the entire Spanish media, they are more concerned about who will become Rijkaard's successor and stay at the Nou Camp.
Regarding the successor, the Catalan media listed a series of names, and Guardiola is one of them. Guardiola is out-and-out Barcelona, and the current leadership performance in Leeds United is also good, so the voice is also very high.
Of course, some people doubt whether Guardiola can take on this important task. After all, in the eyes of Barcelona people, Leeds United is just a small team and cannot be compared with them at all.
No matter what the media and fans thought, it was a done deal for Barcelona and Leeds United. In faraway Asia, at almost the same time, Li Yi boarded the plane back to Europe and England.
Of course, before leaving, Li Yi said goodbye to Han Caiying who came to China again, saying that some things make people want to stop, and those who are addicted to them are actually the same whether it is Li Yi or Han Caiying.
Li Yi went back this time not alone, and he brought Liu Yao with him. Before Li Yi put Liu Yao in the country, Corleone was very anxious. This guy wanted Liu Yao to fly to Europe immediately.
When Li Yi boarded the plane, England's game had already officially started. Although it was an away game, Leeds United had the initiative to start the game.
As a newly promoted team this season, Derby County's strength is not strong, so Leeds United's strong opening is understandable, but Leeds United's strong opening did not open up the situation for the team.
The performance of the newly promoted last season made the newly promoted this season a little more thoughtful, but soon the reality dealt a heavy blow to Derby County. Even if Derby County adjusted its tactics and replaced the head coach, this still cannot change the fact that Derby County ranks at the bottom of the standings, and there are basically no miracles in Derby County at present.
Because so far, Derby County has only won one game. In the sixth round of the league, Derby County defeated Newcastle United 1-0, and since then, Derby County has never tasted a winning position.
And not surprisingly, Derby County will not taste the taste of victory in the next league, because according to the original history, Derby County won one game throughout the season.
11 points, this is all the points Derby County has scored after the end of the season, creating the lowest level in the history of the Premier League. If this had been known earlier, perhaps Derby County would not have been promoted to the Premier League.
Of course, at this time, Derby County didn't know that he would be nailed to the pillar of shame in the Premier League, with 11 points. I believe it is difficult for any team to surpass this score.
As for the players at the moment, Derby County is in an overall backward state. Although Leeds United has never scored a goal, according to the current situation, it will be a matter of time before Leeds United scores a goal.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Before the end of the first half, Leeds United scored the goal, and it was the main striker Olic who scored the goal for Leeds United.
This is a goal-grabbing goal. Mata called a cross at 45 degrees from the wing, and Olic followed up with a header from the defensive player to complete the goal. This is also Olic's ninth goal this season.
Guardiola is very satisfied with Olic in other aspects. He is diligent, obedient, high in tactical execution, and full of fighting spirit. But in terms of scoring rate, Olic is really satisfied with Guardiola. It is understandable why Guardiola has always asked the club to buy strikers.
In fact, Leeds United lacked a goal in many games, but the current Leeds United striker's scoring rate is not high. Bale and Lennon are young, and the same is true for Mata and Royce who came this season. Olić's tactical role is almost irreplaceable.
Of course, there is another very important reason for this, that is, Guardiola's vision is too high. If it is placed on an ordinary team, Olic's performance can be said to be very good, and compared to last season, Olic has improved a lot.
You know, Olic only scored twelve goals in the whole season last season, but this season, he scored nine goals in 22 rounds of the league.
But no matter what, Guardiola was satisfied with Olic's performance in this game. As the last game before leaving, Guardiola naturally wanted to draw a perfect end to his coaching career in Leeds United.
Now that the first goal has been scored, the second will not be too far away. In the 10th minute of the second half, Bell used a wonderful personal performance to reassure Guardiola.
However, Leeds United's goal is not over yet. In the 707th minute, a foul by Derby County gave Leeds United a very good set-piece opportunity.
Beckham, although this is not the reappearance of the full moon machete in England, the fans are still excited. As early as the third round of the league, Beckham used a free kick to score.
3:0 was the final score of the game, and when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Guardiola walked out, walked all the way to the Leeds United fans, and kissed the Leeds United team logo on his clothes.
