72 hours of burning money "sprint", the new moon is about to detonate the "Club World Cup Summer Window"

Written by Han Bing On June 2, Riyadh Crescent, which had only taken a week's break after the end of the Saudi league, began training for the Club World Cup. But the most important thing for Riyadh Crescent is the "Club World Cup Summer Window" that has already begun. In order to finalize the signing of a new manager and at least three heavyweight superstars as soon as possible, Riyadh Crescent chairman Ben Nafir flew to Paris on a private jet on Monday afternoon local time and will stay in Europe this week to complete what may be the craziest week in the club's history.

Sky Sports Italia reports: Riyadh Crescent has reached an agreement with AC Milan for French full-back Te'o to join for a transfer fee of €35 million, and the player has agreed to an offer of €18 million a year after tax for the Saudi club. In addition, Riyadh Crescent reached a personal agreement with Osmeen last week, and Saudi media revealed that Osmeen will complete a medical examination today. Riyadh Crescent will directly activate the €75 million release clause to bring the Nigerian centre-forward to Saudi Arabia. Osimhen is on a three-year contract with an annual salary of 40 million euros after tax. Chairman Nafir's personal visit to Paris to "supervise the battle" was to complete the deal between Te'o and Osimhen. Of course, the most important thing is to speed up the negotiations between Inzaghi Jr. and B Fei, and strive to complete all four heavyweight deals within this week.

In the summer of 2023, Riyadh Crescent invested a total of 353 million euros, setting a record for the team's all-time transfer window. From August 15 to August 19, in just five days, three heavyweight transactions were officially announced in succession: Neymar (90 million euros), Bounou (21 million) and Mitrovic (52.6 million), with a total investment of 163.6 million euros. This week, Riyadh Crescent has basically finalized the transfer of Te'o (35 million) and Osimhen (75 million), if B fee (100 million euros) can be successfully signed, the total amount will reach 210 million euros, surpassing the "crazy August" in 2023, becoming the most expensive week in the history of Riyadh Crescent, and it will also detonate the Club World Cup summer window that will expire on June 10.

Riyadh Crescent's priority targets are again coach Inzaghi Jr. and Manchester United midfielder B Fee. Today will be a decisive day for Inzaghi Jr. The coach of Inter Milan, who have just lost the Champions League, will meet with the club's hierarchy to discuss the team's strategic plans for the new season and, of course, decide whether he will stay or not. Saudi Arabia's "Sports Daily" and "Middle East Newspaper" both claimed that before the Champions League final, Riyadh Crescent had reached a gentleman's agreement with Inzaghi Jr., and the Inter coach accepted a sky-high annual salary of 25 million euros after tax, and planned to officially coach the team on June 9 to prepare for the Club World Cup.

Inter Milan are still hoping to keep Inzaghi Jr. as the Nerazzurri are also playing in the Club World Cup. At this point, the manager was poached, and in such a short period of time, it was difficult to find a suitable replacement. Inter's contract extension is offered at an annual salary of €6.5 million after tax, in addition to bonuses worth millions of euros. But Inzaghi Jr. is interested in the summer window recruitment, and how much money Oaktree can come up with to complete the team's iteration and increase the depth of the bench.

In contrast, at least the Saudis are more sincere in terms of funding and targets. Inzaghi Jr.'s favorite player Milinkovic when he was in charge of Lazio has also joined the ranks of lobbying his former mentor, and the core of Riyadh's Crescent midfield is confident of working with Inzaghi Jr. again. The Saudis also have plan B, which is Portuguese coach Conceição, who has just stepped down from Milan, but apparently the chairman of the negotiations, Nafir, who personally chaired the negotiations, does not want to start plan B.

As for the B-fee deal, which has a total annual salary of 200 million euros after tax and a transfer fee of 100 million euros, there has also been new progress in the negotiations. B-fee's family, especially his wife, was still hesitating, but B-fee's agent had already made a counter-offer. Riyadh Crescent offers a four-year contract with an annual salary of 25 million euros after tax, plus 100 million euros worth of signing fees, bonuses and image rights income. The B fee side hopes to shorten the contract to 3 years, with an annual salary of 30 million euros after tax and an annual bonus of 6 million to 8 million euros.

At the same time, in order to meet the needs of Manchester United's strong centre-forward, Riyadh Crescent is willing to transfer Mitrovic to the Red Devils. The addition of Osimhen made Riyadh Crescent limited by the number of foreign players and tactical positions, and could only give up the Serbian center. But if he can join Manchester United, it will be a huge boost to the progress of the B fee deal.

Riyadh Crescent has only one week to consider B Fei, and this Friday the Saudi giants will fully finalize the deal from the new coach to three heavyweight new signings. This 72-hour money-burning "sprint" will really detonate the summer window of the Club World Cup, which has already begun.
