Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 14 Invite the boss

In London, Chen Ran was blocked at Heathrow Airport by reporters as soon as he got off the plane.

No way, even though he fled the UK for such a long time, there are still paparazzi who follow Cheryl every day without giving up.

"Mr. Chen, where did you go after you left Portugal?"

"Aside from Cristiano Ronaldo, what other stars have you brought in?"

"You have been away from England for so long, do you have a new love?"

"When do you and Cheryl plan to get married?"

"Is Cheryl pregnant with your child?"

Awesome, most of the people present at the scene today are entertainment journalists following Cheryl.

Chen Ran and Cheryl were surrounded by them, asking questions one after another, becoming more and more gossip and explicit.

Fortunately, Stephen, who came to pick up the plane, was prepared and brought the club staff to rescue the two.

Yaya Toure, who came to the UK randomly, had never seen such a scene before, and was stunned.

Is your new boss so popular in the UK?

But why did they just leave?
Hey, don't leave me!
Poor Yaya Toure was just forgotten at Heathrow Airport and almost deported by the police as an illegal immigrant.

Fortunately, his agent called in a hurry, and Chen Ran remembered that he had forgotten Yaya Toure, and asked Stephen to send someone to bring them back.

The next day, the photo of Chen Ran and Cheryl kissing at the airport appeared on many London newspapers on time.

"The Chinese man is back!"

"Heartbroken! Cheryl and Chen kiss passionately at Heathrow Airport."

"There is a quiz for prizes, which players did the Chinese man buy during this time?"

After returning home, Chen Ran just relaxed with Cheryl for a day, and then started to get busy again.

"Stephen, in the next period of time, the players we introduced this time will come to London one after another, and you have to be responsible for arranging them."

"Ok."

"Then you can help me contact Southgate in Middlesbrough, I want to meet and chat with him."

"Southgate? If I remember correctly, he is the best player trained by the Crystal Palace youth training in recent years. Do you want to buy him back?"

Stephen is worthy of being Chen Ran's right-hand man. He now has a very comprehensive understanding of the Crystal Palace club.

"That's right. We have brought in a lot of talented young players this time, and we need a veteran to take charge. Although Guardiola and Simeone are also available, they are not British after all. You understand."

"It is true, you are right, Southgate is indeed the most suitable candidate."

Stephen nodded in agreement, some things can only be understood but not expressed in words.

Chen Ran looked at the little fat man who was lazily nestling on the sofa. This guy still looked like he hadn't recovered.

"Hey Louis, it's been a long time and you haven't rested yet?"

"What do you mean such a long time? Obviously only rested for one day, okay?"

"Don't you think I'm full of energy?"

While talking, Chen Ran didn't forget to show off his biceps.

"Don't compare you, a pervert, with a normal person like me. It's incredible that Cheryl didn't squeeze you out all day yesterday."

Louis picked up the Sun newspaper and threw it to Chen Ran.

It turned out that the Sun newspaper published another photo of Chen Ran and Cheryl walking into the apartment hand in hand.

Start with a picture, and the rest depends on editing.

The title is even more sensational: "24 hours when Chen Ran and Cheryl disappeared!"

Other than the fact that he and Cheryl hadn't come out all day, the rest of it was bullshit.

Damn, it seems that the current residence is no longer safe.

"Okay, we have to work even if we don't have a good rest. Our time is limited, have you forgotten what I told you about buying people from Brazil?"

Chen Ran threw away the Sun newspaper casually, and glared at the little fat man in displeasure.

"Who to buy?"

As soon as he heard this, the little fat man suddenly got excited and jumped up from the sofa with all his strength.

"One is Thiago Silva from Juventus, and the other is Maicon Douglas Sisenando from Cruzeiro."

"Who are these people, I have never heard of them."

"Nonsense, will those famous stars come to Crystal Palace? I want to buy Kaka, how about you help me snatch it from AC Milan?"

"Well, forget it, I don't have the ability."

The little fat man shrank his neck, not daring to make a sound.

"Chen, Daowei has been wanting to see you recently, what are you going to do?"

Stephen took over the conversation at this time and made a relief for the little fat man.

Ever since the media revealed that Chen Ran had snatched Ronaldo from Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool, Dao Wei has become more enthusiastic. It seems that this new rookie boss is playing for real.

He is more confident about getting the kickback from the transfer.

Of course, he wasn't arrogant enough to think that Chen Ran would fully accept his list of buyers.But even if only a few of them were sold, it would be enough to save him from struggling for several years.

So, for a while, Daowei's mind was not on the team's training.

After throwing the job to the assistant coach, he ran to Stephen every three days, thinking about arranging a transfer.

Fortunately, Chen Ran was not in the UK during this time, which was known to everyone, and Stephen used this excuse to drag him all the time.

"Delay for another two days until I see Southgate."

Middlesbrough is an important town in the steel industry in the northeast of England, and Middlesbrough Club is located in this city.

Still in a restaurant, Chen Ran met Southgate.

The British media's overwhelming coverage of Chen Ran showed its benefits at this time.

Southgate is also full of curiosity about the new boss of his old club.

So when his agent told him that Chen Ran wanted to see him, he agreed without hesitation.

"How is it? Isn't it very ordinary?"

Seeing Southgate's curious eyes, Chen Ran asked with a smile.

"Ahem, sorry, I was too rude."

Southgate was also a little embarrassed, and still couldn't help looking at the Chinese who suddenly became angry.

"It's okay, don't worry, I'm used to it now."

The atmosphere at the beginning was good, the two chatted while eating.

With Chen Ran's guidance, the strangeness quickly disappeared.

"So, Mr. Chen asked me to meet because he wanted me to return to the Crystal Palace?"

Southgate didn't hide it, and directly expressed his conjecture in his heart.

"That's right. Mr. Southgate, I believe you also know about my plan for Crystal Palace from the media. To tell you the truth, I have introduced a large number of new players. But I also know that a team depends on buying People can’t do it, and there needs to be a core to sit in the town.”

"And I think that Mr. Southgate is the most suitable candidate in terms of strength, status and background. Therefore, I very much hope that Mr. Southgate can return to Crystal Palace and join me in creating a football dynasty. plan of."
