long live the king

"That's really a pity." Ferguson smiled helplessly. He didn't expect Zhang Yang to reject him so simply, and there was no room for maneuver.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Zhang Yang also nodded, "The Jazz have always been one of the coaches I respect the most. You and your team are the best teams in the Premier League, bar none. However, we may become rivals."

"You've decided? You're going to the Premier League?" Ferguson almost stood up in shock. He immediately realized this. The operation of Zhang Yang's transfer seemed to be deeper than he realized. It means that he has already entered It's the final stage, and, it is very likely that the new club is from the Premier League, "Is it Chelsea?"

When Zhang Yang heard Ferguson ask this question, the kid remembered a rumor, so he deliberately asked, "Sir, why don't you suspect it's Arsenal?"

Sure enough, Ferguson sneered, "Arsenal? He doesn't have the courage."

Zhang Yang laughed, saying that Sir Alex Ferguson and Professor Wenger are deadly rivals, which is true. Sir Alex Ferguson's words are very hurtful, not to say that Arsenal has no money, but that Arsenal's head coach Wenger does not have such courage, because who We all know that if Zhang Yang transfers, the transfer fee will be very astonishing. What is certain is that breaking Zidane's transfer record of 600 million euros is almost predictable. In the eyes of Ferguson Come on, Wenger will not be willing to spend the money to buy someone.

Regarding Arsenal and Arsene Wenger, Mendes once conducted an analysis especially for Zhang Yang. Mr. "Super Agent" saw it very thoroughly, and he agreed with Ferguson. Arsenal is not short of money, but lacks courage.

Despite not being able to win any major championships on the pitch in the past four seasons, Arsene Wenger has rarely been strongly questioned as Arsenal's head coach, except for the past three league titles and four league titles for Arsenal. Apart from the FA Cup, Wenger has always been praised for his frugality in player transfer fees and salary expenses.At Arsenal, Wenger insisted on a weekly salary cap of 3 pounds and a one-year signing policy for players after the age of 4.

Moreover, in the 12 years at Arsenal, his single transfer fee record is only Reyes in January 2004 for 1 million pounds. The transfer fee of 2320 million pounds is indeed a lot, but, for a giant, This is actually their most expensive transfer, especially in the Premier League, which has always been in good business conditions, it is indeed very shabby.

It has always been believed that Arsenal's financial situation is not very good, especially the construction of the new stadium, which has burdened Arsenal with a heavy financial burden. However, not long ago, Arsenal announced their financial report for last season.The Arsenal Fans Fund () concluded after analyzing this financial report that the total salary of Arsenal's current players and coaches is about [-] million pounds.This is just a relative average, the actual situation is rising every year.

The Arsenal Fans Foundation is a coalition of small shareholders of the Gunners, and has the power to investigate Arsenal's accounts. Based on the du li situation relative to the board of directors, its opinions and tendencies can also influence the decision-making of the board of directors.Therefore, their conclusions are quite authoritative.

At the same time, Chelsea's financial report for the same period confirmed that the total salary of players and coaches was [-] million pounds, which included the compensation paid by Chelsea for firing Grant and the huge salary package provided to coach Scolari.It was only then that people discovered that Arsenal's salary expenses were almost the same as Chelsea's!In the entire Premier League, it is second only to Manchester United.

It can be seen that Arsenal are not short of money. They have a lot of surplus every season, second only to Manchester United. However, Wenger has always insisted on the balance of payments. He said: "Professional football is about winning and balancing accounts. Purpose. This is the fundamental law and I work for it. Everything else is self-deception. Every club faces the same issues and I always expect financial fair play. The club belongs to the fans and that's what I think mine is. The duty is to keep the club in good financial shape."

Therefore, Arsenal's shrinking in the transfer market is precisely due to this so-called break-even strategy.

Therefore, although Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger has always admired Zhang Yang, and was even the first coach to pay attention to Zhang Yang in the French League One, Arsenal has never had a relationship with Zhang Yang because he is unwilling to bear the high transfer fee. , At that time, Arsenal even only needed more than 2000 million pounds to get publicity.However, Wenger hesitated.

Therefore, among the many suitors, although Arsenal has always been there, Zhang Yang was the first to rule out Arsenal. He really has no interest in a club whose weekly salary of [-] pounds is the maximum salary.In Zhang Yang's words, it's just too petty.

For Manchester United, it is much more generous than Arsenal. Ferguson has always been known for his courage. Back then, he was able to spend a lot of money for Ferdinand, a defender, setting a sky-high price record for a defender's transfer.

It's just that, in terms of Manchester United, there is almost no difference from Zhang Yang in AC Milan. Tactically, he cannot become the only core and the banner of the team.

It can be said that the grand blueprint planned by the chairman of the Manchester City club Alfaim for Manchester City and their willingness to spend [-] million pounds for Zhang Yang are the basis for making Zhang Yang tempted. However, they have strengthened Zhang Yang's core position. Forming a super luxurious team is what fascinates Zhang Yang the most. In a word, Zhang Yang is a very self-centered person, and he enjoys the feeling that he is the focus and the most important one.

Mourinho once said to Mendes that Zhang Yang resembles him in some ways, and this is what he meant.

Zhang Yang did not tell Ferguson exactly which club he transferred to, and it is impossible for him to tell the truth at this time.However, knowing that Zhang Yang's future is in the Premier League is enough to attract Ferguson's attention. He admires Zhang Yang very much. In the Champions League last season, Manchester United and AC Milan also played against each other directly. Zhang Yang's lethality is amazing. Ferguson Impressed, and now I know that Zhang Yang will likely land in the Premier League next season, which will become a big change for Manchester United in the league title next season.

In addition, in Ferguson's view, although Zhang Yang did not admit it personally, judging from this posture, the only one who can get Zhang Yang is Chelsea.

This made Ferguson even more vigilant. Chelsea replaced Arsenal when Mourinho was still the head coach and became Manchester United's biggest rival in the Premier League title. It was just that there was civil strife in Chelsea last season. After Austrian dismissed get out of class and Grant took over, under internal and external difficulties, Chelsea finally lost to Manchester United in the league championship and also lost to Manchester United in the Champions League final. However, now, if Zhang Yang joins Chelsea, plus Chelsea has established new coach Scolari, this brand new Chelsea, will bring great threat to Manchester United.Don't look at Ferguson's disdain for Chelsea's new coach Scolari when he was interviewed by ESPN, saying that Scolari is not suitable for the rhythm of the Premier League, but after all, Sir Alex must still be very careful in his heart Attention.

"It's confirmed?" Ferguson finally asked again unwillingly. At this moment, in the heart of the old man, if possible, he would try his best to cut off Zhang Yang's transfer.

Zhang Yang nodded and said: "Yes, Jorge and the other party have already communicated fully. Although they haven't officially signed a contract yet, there is almost no possibility of the negotiation breaking down. They also have an urgent need for me, and they are very interested. Sincerity, unless they can't agree with AC Milan, Milan will not sell me."

AC Milan is not selling publicity anymore?Of course Ferguson doesn't believe this, he is an old fox, he has already smelled the smell, and knows that there is a problem between Milan and Zhang Yang, AC Milan must have made a decision to sell Zhang Yang for economic benefits, so Ferguson will personally go out , Risking the possibility of being discovered by the media and causing a stalemate with AC Milan, to lobby Zhang Yang.It's just that I didn't expect that someone else had already taken the lead.

Ferguson couldn't help heaving a long sigh. He could only say that there was no fate. He liked Zhang Yang very much. Although the media reported on Zhang Yang's personality, rebelliousness, and disobedience, this is true in this case. In Ferguson's eyes, it's nothing at all. Aren't there still a few thorny stars who have been trained by Ferguson?Which one was not trained by Ferguson to be submissive?

Moreover, after the two contacts with Zhang Yang, Ferguson had a good impression of Zhang Yang. He felt that this kid was not as bad as the media said, and he respected him very much. Therefore, Ferguson became more determined to buy Zhang Yang. up.

It's a pity that Zhang Yang still couldn't be persuaded.Ferguson could also see that Zhang Yang really had no intention of joining Manchester United, otherwise, the contract hadn't been signed yet, so the contract could be broken.

Moreover, the old Scottish man could vaguely guess why Zhang Yang rejected Manchester United.

Ferguson can now imagine how terrible Chelsea will be in the next season after having Zhang Yang, who is definitely a super shooter, and Chelsea have basically won the championship in the past few seasons. Joining will make it much more difficult for Manchester United to compete for the Premier League next season.

However, as the godfather of Manchester United, Ferguson has never experienced any scenes, regrets, losses or even blows. He quickly regained his composure. After knowing that this trip was fruitless, Ferguson also knew that there was no need to continue talking. The old man immediately got up and said goodbye: "It's really a pity. I have a feeling that missing you will be the biggest regret in my coaching career. In this way, if there is any change in the negotiation between you and the other side, you must call me first , I will meet you personally at Old Trafford."

Zhang Yang could feel the sincerity of the old man, and he nodded, "Thank you Sir for your kindness. If there is such a possibility, I will definitely call you."

After sending Ferguson out the door, Zhang Yang suddenly remembered something. He suddenly asked Ferguson to stay, and then said something to a servant.

Ferguson didn't stop Zhang Yang's behavior, he watched Zhang Yang pour red wine into two wine glasses.

Zhang Yang handed a wine glass to Ferguson, and then the young man smiled and said to the greatest godfather in the history of Manchester United, "Dear Sir, maybe when we meet next time, we are already enemies. Now, let's toast to that day in advance .”

Ferguson also laughed, and took the glass handed over by Zhang Yang heartily and said, "Cheers to the enemy."

"Cheers to the enemy." Zhang Yang also laughed.Cheer secretly for the old man's pride, he likes this old man.I like it very much, but unfortunately, it is really not an easy thing to play under this old man.

Ferguson drank the wine in his glass, turned around and strode away.Zhang Yang sent this respectable old man downstairs with emotion.

At this time, no matter whether it was Zhang Yang or Ferguson, neither of them knew that someone was in a secret place, seeing all this clearly, and quickly pressed the shutter.

Zhang Yang thought it was a secret that he returned to Milan, but he ignored his current influence. These days, reporters have been waiting at Zhang Yang's residence to see when he will come back. More than half a month has passed. Zhang Yang still stayed in China, so some reporters gradually withdrew, but there were still a few people who stood firm.They firmly believe that their hard work will be rewarded, no, the reward is coming!

The next day, the headline on the front page of "Turin Sports News" was a photo that was not very clear, but if the people in the photo were accompanied by the huge title, they could still see who those two people were , as this big bold headline says:

"Ferguson's night interview with Zhang Yang, the Chinese striker is about to join Manchester United"

The latest issue of "Turin Sports News" has attracted the attention of fans with such a prominent title!

This headline, especially the photo, everything seems to show that this is by no means a deliberate hype or gimmick.

All of a sudden, this report by the "Turin Sports News" was also reprinted by the media throughout Europe and the world, and its influence expanded rapidly.

In China, the most influential print sports media "Sports Weekly" also used the biggest headline on the front page: Sky-high price deal!Countdown to Zhang Yang joining Manchester United!

In the eyes of many people, this news seems to be true, because Ferguson, the godfather of Manchester United, has always made no secret of his love for Zhang Yang. Ferguson even compared Zhang Yang with Cantona back then. In other words, Zhang Yang's talent is comparable to that of Cantona back then. In addition, Cantona, a thorny head, can do well in Manchester United, so Zhang Yang can naturally.Moreover, everyone knows that Manchester United needs a shooter now. After Ruud van Nistelrooy left, Manchester United's striker has not been reassuring. Ferguson has said more than once that he needs someone to share the burden of Cristiano Ronaldo. The pressure on his shoulders, so this makes the outside world even more suspicious of the future of AC Milan's Chinese shooter at Old Trafford!

In fact, for a long time, among the most likely new clubs guessed by the media, Manchester United has always been at the forefront.Unlike Real Madrid and Chelsea, which are somewhat turbulent at this stage, Manchester United is the most stable. Ferguson's position is very strong. He likes publicity. This is the biggest evidence that Zhang Yang may join Manchester United.

The reason why the outside world is not very optimistic about Manchester United's ability to make publicity is mainly because they are skeptical about whether Manchester United can come up with a transfer budget that may be sky-high. After all, the Glazer family's financial resources are limited. It is not too much to say that the debt acquisition is a cash-strapped one.

However, "The Times" columnist Titan Steve said a word, never underestimate Ferguson's determination, he believed that once Ferguson vowed to get publicity, anything could happen.

If you want to say which Premier League team has the most fans in China, there is only one answer, and that is Manchester United and the Red Devils Manchester United. Winning the championship with an undefeated record has caused a surge in the number of Arsenal fans in China. However, whether it is in terms of number or momentum, Manchester United fans still occupy a large proportion in China. As for other Asian countries, Manchester United has many. fans.

Therefore, the rumor that Zhang Yang may join Manchester United has made Chinese Manchester United fans ecstatic.My favorite team can have the most popular football star in China now, which makes Manchester United fans ecstatic, and they almost set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Manchester United fans were ecstatic, but fans of other European giants were naturally a little unbalanced. Chelsea is also one of the many giants pursuing publicity.

However, Manchester United fans quickly took the photos of Ferguson's night interview with Zhang Yang as an example. They obviously thought that Ferguson had already dealt with Zhang Yang.

Those paparazzi took photos of Zhang Yang and Ferguson's 'tryst', which suddenly put Zhang Yang, who had already returned to Milan, at the forefront again.

Now, the fans of AC Milan were angry, and after contacting the previous reports, they had every reason to believe that Zhang Yang had indeed betrayed AC Milan.

And at this time, in Milan, many high-level officials in Milan, including Berlusconi, were in a hurry. It seemed that Zhang Yang would not agree to join Manchester City, and he seemed to be closer to Manchester City.

And Ancelotti was lamenting that in the current situation, even if Milan and Manchester City did not reach an agreement, it would be impossible for Zhang Yang to stay in Milan. The attitude of AC Milan in handling this matter completely angered Zhang Yang, and the two sides completely turned their faces. Thinking that Zhang Yang was the biggest contributor to Milan's championship a month ago, but now it has become like this, Ancelotti also felt a burst of embarrassment.

Of course, I am also happy, that is Berlusconi's eldest son Pierre Berlusconi, in his opinion, Zhang Yang's private meeting with Ferguson is a confirmation of Zhang Yang's betrayal of Milan. If Zhang Yang is dropped, it will not arouse the fans' disgust at all, because the fans' disgust will be completely concentrated on Zhang Yang.

Ever since, the next day, "Repubblica" once again attacked Zhang Yang with all its strength, thinking that Zhang Yang was seduced by other wealthy teams and chose to leave Milan for a high salary. This was a betrayal of Milan fans and the entire team.

Perhaps it was Zhang Yang's long-standing silence that made some people miscalculate the situation, and they thought that Zhang Yang would continue to remain silent this time.

However, they seem to have forgotten a sentence, that is, "rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry." What's more, Zhang Yang is not a good person at all. He just has feelings for the team he has played for for a season. He was a nostalgic young man who didn't want to turn his face when he left, but when someone repeatedly challenged his bottom line, Zhang Yang exploded out of course.

In fact, many people are waiting for Zhang Yang to explode. According to Zhang Yang's personality analysis, this Chinese boy will definitely not remain silent. It has to be said that this time, the media is very accurate.

Now, Zhang Yang is quite lively at the door of Milan's residence.

Many fans carried banners and chanted slogans there. These fans were divided into two parts, one part came to criticize and curse people. They believed that Zhang Yang chose to leave Milan for money and betrayed them.Another part of the fans came to keep Zhang Yang. They didn't think that Zhang Yang did such things for money. They begged Zhang Yang to stand up and swear his love for Milan.

In addition, when they learned that Zhang Yang had returned to Milan's home, the media also flocked to his door, asking Zhang Yang if it was true that he had a 'tryst' with Ferguson and reached an agreement in private, as well as his opinion on "Republican" The newspaper criticized whether it was true that he chose to leave Milan for money.

"No, these are all rumors. I am still a player of AC Milan, and my contract with the team will expire in 3 years! My current jersey is still red and black." Zhang Yang said.

Among the fans below, some applauded, some booed, and there was a mess.

Many reporters were also very dissatisfied. This kind of answer is really nothing new. It cannot be said that Zhang Yang is loyal to Milan, nor is it a declaration that Zhang Yang wants to leave.

Then they continued to question Zhang Yang about the meeting between Zhang Yang and Ferguson.

"Meeting with Ferguson?" Zhang Yang looked at these people and continued, "Yes, Sir Ferguson did come to my home, but he had a meeting with my agent Mendes, and the focus of the meeting was also Not me, but Cristiano Ronaldo, as you know, Cristiano Ronaldo is also Mendes' player."

Hearing that Zhang Yang pushed the matter away, some reporters were angry, "Zhang, do you think we are children? Ferguson came all the way to your house to talk about Cristiano Ronaldo?"

Zhang Yang glanced at the reporter coldly, and continued, "You are too anxious. I haven't finished yet. As the host, I will naturally send Sir Alex Ferguson away. When he left, Sir Ferguson asked me jokingly, what do you think?" Are you going to play for Manchester United?"

Now, the media is excited, and they naturally don't care that what Zhang Yang said was Ferguson jokingly mentioned this sentence. They also know that Zhang Yang said this to avoid trouble. After all, a head coach contacts a player in private. It is banned by the Football Federation, although in fact, many teams don't care about this ban.

What these reporters, as well as the fans, wanted to know was Zhang Yang's answer.

Zhang Yang didn't keep everyone waiting, he continued, "I told Sir Alex, this joke is not funny at all, and I have no interest in joining Manchester United."

Said Zhang Yang shrugged, "That's how it is."

The reporters were very excited, so they would not report according to what Zhang Yang said. In their reports, Ferguson definitely invited Zhang Yang in a serious way, while the Milan shooter chose to decline after a painful decision.

When the reporters below were discussing, Zhang Yang suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, I have also explained this matter, so, now, we should talk about the business."

"What's the matter?"

"What do you mean?"

"What's the matter?"

"Could it be?"

The reporters were taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly became excited. Is Zhang Yang going to respond to the transfer rumors and accusations about him these days?

Haha, I already knew that this kid would not swallow his anger, but I didn't expect it to explode today.

Whether it was the reporters at the scene or the fans who either protested or supported Zhang Yang, they all fell silent.

At this time, the black bodyguard Johnny came up, brought a broadcast speaker and handed it to Zhang Yang.

The reporters at the scene rolled their eyes for a while. There were many microphones at the scene, but this kid didn't use any of them, and asked someone to bring this big speaker.

It really is a flamboyant style.

At the same time, they were also excited, eager to hear what Zhang Yang would say...

ps: the first update.Ask for a red ticket.
