The Zeus transfer situation is relatively logical.
1. The core driving force behind the transfer is still Zeus's management company, because wherever Zeus goes, the management company's earnings will definitely be higher after the transfer, so they push for Zeus's transfer every year.
2. Zeus himself also has a certain tendency to leave, not just for money; there may be some dissatisfaction within the club that has been exploited by the management company.
3. There must have been prior discussions with HLE, as HLE offered the management company a higher commission and made some off-contract promises to Zeus, such as building a personal brand and forming a long-term team around him.
4. From T1's perspective, everything seems normal; they were ready to negotiate matching offers, but in reality, the other parties had already made decisions beforehand and quietly left as soon as the window opened.
