The winter window of the five major leagues has been closed one after another, whether it is a transfer or a loan, Zhuqiang has "increased or decreased" the lineup. But there is one transfer that is very peculiar: Alli joined Everton from Tottenham hotspur for a "zero" transfer fee. Although there are "appearances clauses" and performance bonuses, such operations are still very rare.
Such an operation is currently win-win. But compared with Tottenham and Everton, Ali is obviously the more obvious side of the "hidden worry". It can even be said that if he can no longer achieve self-help, it is really difficult to say how far his career will decline.
"Zero" transfer fee, why? 】
We all know that the "zero" transfer fee applies very little, especially if the player has a contract with the team. Tottenham hotspur is not without attempts to sell Ali, after they have had in-depth negotiations with teams such as Paris, but have not been able to reach an agreement.
The essential reason for this situation is Ali's "crotch pulling".
As a former British emperor, it is difficult to define Ali's decline from an exact time node. But what is certain is that since the "video gate", Ali's performance on and off the pitch has begun to be fully harshly criticized. But the negative news outside the field can not be taken as the main reason, Ali's own "non-self-discipline" is the fundamental.
When Mourinho took charge of Tottenham Hotspur, he valued Alli a lot. Ali also played well under Mourinho' men, scoring goals and assists. But in this situation, Mourinho still said that Ali was "not serious" in training. The next story we all know, Ali's performance began to decline again, after the "chicken blood period" further exposed his technology is not delicate enough, the confrontation is not the same level of the situation. He was replaced for his poor performance, or sat on the bench, Ali was very "anxious". There are not few shots of people on the bench or dropping their shoes after being replaced.
Under the two managers of Nuno and Conte, Ali has been given a lot of opportunities to appear, but it is far from the level or data output that the starter should have.
There is no doubt that Ali is already a "negative asset" for Tottenham, and it is very difficult to cash out a large transfer fee.
After Spurs introduced Bentancour and Kulu, Ali's living space has been very small, and it is inevitable to send him away. But receivers are very scarce, and Spurs need to take the initiative to give up. In the face of Everton, who wants to strengthen, giving up the transfer fee and hoping that Ali will get the "stop loss" funds by himself, Tottenham's attitude and helplessness are very obvious.
[Barca and Milan "proof", Everton also have room for riot operation]
Famous Romano said that once Ali makes 20 appearances at Everton, toffee will have to pay 12 million euros to Tottenham, with performance bonuses in the future.
If Spurs pin their transfer fees on Ali's self-help, Everton are even more advantageous. Without him, the player's appearance time has a very sufficient operating space, and even active "avoidance".
Barca previously went on loan for 18-year-old winger Demir, but after Playing for Demir nine times, he never got a chance to play again. Because according to the terms of the loan contract, if Demir makes 10 appearances at Barca, Barca will need a forced buyout of 10 million euros. Similarly, AC Milan loaned Aquilani from Liverpool that year, and the coaching staff fixed his forced buyout appearances at 24.5 games, and after the players appeared in 24 games, the coaching staff did not arrange for him to play again.
For Everton, they also have such operating conditions.
Once Ali has completed his self-help and has the opportunity to continue to play in the Premier League, his own team or rotate, Everton spending 12 million euros is not a big deal. After all, the value level of the players is there now. As long as it can bring substantial help to the team, this money is "nothing"; once Ali's performance does not meet expectations, then Everton can not give Spurs money on the one hand, and there will be more "fierce" space for operation when dealing with Ali in the sale. Players who did not spend the transfer fee, the money sold is counted as income, and if they can't be sold, they should be paid to rent Ali.
Of course, the content of Everton's contract with Ali, we have no way of knowing. But this does not contradict Everton's "choice advantage".
