Congratulations to Liverpool, defeating Milan s two giants, 35 million new Nesta, it is still difficult to make up for the loophole in the defense

According to well-known reporter Romano, Italy's 18-year-old talented centre-back, Leoni, known as the "New Nesta", has completed the signing of Liverpool. The overall transfer fee is 35 million euros. There are also second transfer terms with a good ratio. It is not as rumored that it will be leased back to Parma to continue training, but directly joins Liverpool. In other words, this young star who has attracted attention from all over Europe will officially enter the Premier League in the new season.

Leoni was able to join Liverpool, which once again proved that in the football market, "money" is the law of omnipotence. In fact, as early as June, Serie A, AC Milan took the lead in attacking the rising star. At that time, their offer was 20 million euros, but was flatly rejected by Parma and directly called for 30 million euros.

Then, because Inter Milan changed coaches, the former Parma coach Zivo became the new coach of the Nerazzurri, so he naturally targeted the young star who was exploring in his hands. Unfortunately, Inter Milan's financial situation was worse than AC Milan. Because the team's lineup was aging, and many positions needed to replace new and old, they could only give priority to the promotion of forwards, midfielders, and wingbacks. As for the addition of central defenders, it is first to see whether the existing players have teams to buy them, and then to see whether veteran Archerby retired. So from mid-June to now, for two months, Milan's "double poor" has been rumored to Leoni, but there has never been decisive progress.

This gives Liverpool the opportunity to take action. Although Liverpool can be called the team with the strongest financial strength in the top five leagues this season, the team's priority is actually very low when it comes to buying central defenders.

Their most important energy is to transform the front line, replace the wingback, and improve the midfield. Their choice to buy Leoni was purely three unexpected factors.

First in the trade of Werz, in order to reduce the transfer fee, Leverkusen chose Liverpool's youth training centre-back Kanssa for 30 million yuan to join, causing the originally neat four-man central defender combination to have defects.

Then the main central defender Connert rejected Liverpool's contract renewal agreement, which was believed by the media to want to join Real Madrid's arms without a sign-free next season. Although Connert is still one year away from his free transfer, as the absolute main force, Liverpool cannot not prepare for the future and prepare in advance.

Finally, Isaac's transfer was full of twists and turns. Although the players reached an agreement with Liverpool's management, Newcastle United was always unwilling to let people go, allowing Liverpool to win French center Ekitic with a "relatively low" of 100 million euros, and the transfer fee they finally freed up to solve the defender's problem.

Compared with the Milanese two-star player who is so sharp, Liverpool is undoubtedly a wealthy and good buyer. Not only does it agree with the price of Parma of 35 million euros (including the bonus terms), it is also willing to provide a certain proportion of second transfers. The player himself is also very interested in entering the World No. 1 League. It took only more than a week from the beginning to the completion of the transfer.

However, 18-year-old Leoni has only played 20 games in Serie A, and it is difficult to replace Connaet. Therefore, the British media generally believe that considering that Liverpool's third substitute central defender Joe Gomez has suffered many injuries recently and is in a difficult state, they will still seek to buy local central defender Paye as the team's third central defender.

As for Leoni, it is just a high-priced potential stock of the team. At least in the new season, there will be no clear requirements for his immediate combat effectiveness. Such a positioning will undoubtedly have positive significance for the growth of this 18-year-old talented star.
