Chapter 512 Volume [-] Storm Bombshell
The fact that Beckham was willing to negotiate personal treatment with Nottingham Forest was ordered by Tang En to keep it strictly confidential. Apart from the Beckhams, his agent, the Big Three of the Forest team, and Tang En's close friend Tang En, no one knew about it.Even Real Madrid doesn't know about this yet, and they are still dawdling in "difficult" contract renewal negotiations with his agent under insulting conditions.

On the one hand, since December 31st has not yet passed, Beckham’s contract with Real Madrid is still valid, and other clubs cannot contact players in private, otherwise, once Real Madrid finds out, this matter may be reported to FIFA. At that time, it will be unclear.

In addition, Dunn didn't want to give other competitors a chance to intervene.As far as he knows, there are three clubs in England that have expressed their interest in Beckham.

What advantage does Twain have? If he hadn't become Beckham's friend by chance, then in this competition, he would have no chance of gaining any advantage, let alone having the opportunity to persuade Beckham face to face Changed my mind.

Allen has quietly left for Madrid, Spain to negotiate personal terms with Beckham's agent.Twain and Tang were discussing how to arrange the team's lineup and tactics when Beckham came.

Beckham can play as a right midfielder or as a midfielder. Considering his increasing age and frequent injuries, Twain is not too worried about competing for position with the other two right midfielders. There must be multi-line battles, and there is no need to worry about no games.What's more, this is in England, not Spain. No matter how powerful the club's top management is, they can't dictate to Twain's lineup just because of commercial interests.If he really put Beckham on the bench or even in the stands because of his bad condition, Alan would not dare to say a word other than whispering a few words in private.

After Albertini retired, Beckham could occasionally play as a defensive midfielder. Although his defensive ability is not very good, his precise long pass can be regarded as the best in the world.When encountering a strong opponent, when playing a defensive counterattack, such a kick...it is absolutely perfect.

In addition, Ruud van Nistelrooy was friends with Beckham when he was at Manchester United, so there is no need to worry about the tacit understanding between the two of them. In addition, with a powerful center like Bendtner, Beckham is accurate. There is also room for better use of wide crosses and set kicks.

At the same time, if Beckham and David play at the same time, there will be more changes in free kicks.

In addition, with Beckham's consistent dedication to work, Twain was not at all worried that the arrival of this "entertainment star" would spoil a group of kids.Beckham on the training ground will only set a better example for the players.There are not many people in the world who are as famous as him and still insist on training every day...

Perhaps the arrival of Beckham will make Alan Lennon a little worried, but Tang En will personally appease Lennon at that time. After all, no matter how good Beckham is, he won't be able to play for a few years, and the future of the team still lies with him and Ashley. .Yang's.

At Christmas time, Tang En finally received a Christmas gift from Spain from Alan Adams - a copy of the contract signed by both parties.

According to this contract, Beckham will transfer to Nottingham Forest for free after the contract with Real Madrid expires this season and sign for two years.The weekly salary that Nottingham Forest pays Beckham is not much, only 11 pounds, which is far from the 50 pounds promised by the Los Angeles Galaxy. The agent also said that it was because Beckham and Tony Twain were good friends that he decided to voluntarily cut his salary.

But Alan didn't know that "friend said" was only one of the reasons.There is an even more important reason that Beckham didn't tell anyone—just as Twain admired Beckham, Beckham also admired Twain. He believed that Tony Twain, a coach who had repeatedly performed miracles, would definitely be able to Let the world change its impression of him.His 31-year-old "old guy" can rejuvenate under Twain's hands.It was a gamble that the last few years of his career could count as the right time for renewed glory.

So he gave up his high income for it.

Allen actually doesn't care about Beckham's income from portrait rights. After all, compared to that, Beckham is willing to come to the Forest team, and the Forest team should make the most of the money.At that time, the improvement of the international image and the influence of the global market... will all increase exponentially. At the same time, in exchange for a "low weekly salary", it can finally balance the salary structure of the team, so that Beckham will not be too prominent and cause some problems. People's dissatisfaction, the team's internal unity has also been guaranteed.The American couldn't think of a better outcome than the present.

The details of this contract have not yet been disclosed. Allen is trying to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and postponed the announcement of such important news until January [-] next year.

At that time, for the media, it will be like one after another blockbuster bombs falling on the ground among them.

Tang En closed the door in his office with this fax and laughed loudly.I'm sorry that he can't pretend to be deep and mature at this moment, he is really excited and ecstatic.Since he traveled to this world, everything he did, intentionally or not, seemed to change the world to a greater or lesser extent. This is the first thing about Beckham's transfer.

Seeing that familiar "future" being torn to pieces by himself, he never felt so good as today.What Barcelona is invincible, what AC Milan is about to rebuild the dynasty... It's all nonsense!Now, what is slowly unfolding in front of him is not a wonderful picture scroll, but just a blank sheet of paper!
Snow-white and flawless, with no ink on the blank paper, he can write and paint to his heart's content, draw an image he wants to see, and write a future that belongs to him.

It felt... like holding the whole world in my hands.That's right, just like Nottingham Forest's team song sang - the world is in my hands!

Beckham is just a key to a new world.After Tang En took the key and opened a door, he realized that what appeared in front of his eyes this time was a truly brand new world. It was different from the world after he had traveled through it, completely different!

Nothing can stop him from creating new worlds.Tony Twain, this little man who was originally unknown, will become a nightmare that everyone will never forget in their dreams!

After Christmas, Alan Adams, who came back from Spain, spent almost every day looking at the wall calendar.Day by day, he finally looked forward to January 2007, 1.

New day, after the new year, there are only six months left on Beckham’s contract with Real Madrid. According to the rules, at this time, any club can bypass Real Madrid and directly negotiate the contract with Beckham, and then there is no need at all. Give Real Madrid a transfer fee of one penny, and they can take away Beckham, who cost them 500 million euros.

This kind of thing should have been avoided by Real Madrid, and the player's contract was renewed before the New Year.However, since Beckham has lost his main position in the past half season, and the new chairman hopes to clear the traces of the Florentino era after taking office, Real Madrid is not in a hurry to renew the contract with Beckham, so that Don En took advantage of the loophole.

"Happy New Year, Boss..." The Nottingham Evening Post reporter Pierce Bruce, who didn't need to go to work on the first day of the New Year, was still confused when he received a call from his boss.He was woken up directly by the phone from his sleep. At this time, he was sleepy and glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table, it was 45:[-] in the morning.

"Don't do this, Pierce!" The boss's urgent voice rang through the phone, "Where are you now? At home? In the car on vacation? Or in the bathroom?"

"Uh, on the bed..."

"You're still on the bed!" The boss yelled loudly, "Get up quickly!"

"But boss, I don't have to go to work today..."

"Cut the fuckin' nonsense, jump out of bed right now, put on your clothes and go to City Stadium! You only have 15 minutes!"

"F-what happened?" Bruce lost all sleepiness after hearing the boss's loud voice, sat up from the bed, and put on his pants while talking on the phone.

"You'll know when you get there!" The phone beeped off.Before the disconnection, Bruce vaguely heard the voice of the boss: "I don't even know what the hell happened..."

Pierce Bruce didn't dare to dawdle. It must not be small news that made this old man so excited.

With a tie in his hand and a briefcase under his arm, Bruce, who didn't even have time to comb his hair, rushed out of the house like a whirlwind.

※ ※ ※

When Pierce Bruce arrived at the City Stadium, home of Nottingham Forest, he found that the parking lot was already full of special cars from media from all over the country, and even... media from other countries.He has followed and reported the Forest team for nearly four years, and it is still rare to see such a multi-media gathering scene like today.Even if Nottingham Forest reached the Champions League final, there would not be as much media as today.

He counted a little, and besides several well-known British media, there are also Spanish, French, Italian, American...even Japanese and Chinese media appearing here.

Looks like something really big has happened.With doubts, he walked to the news hall that was in charge of holding various press conferences.

When there was still a distance, he had already seen busy people coming in and out of the door, various photographic and video equipment being moved in, and the OB vans of BBC and Sky TV station were parked at the door.When he entered, he was frightened by the crowded scene inside. Except for the machines, there were only reporters. It was so dark that the originally spacious room was crowded.

The doubts in Bruce's heart were even worse, and he squeezed in with effort.His ears were full of comments from colleagues, and he planned to take this opportunity to inquire about some news in advance, but the people around him didn't know, they were just guessing.On the contrary, a few reporters who knew him came up to him and asked him if they knew that Tony Twain had decided to hold a press conference on the spur of the moment, and there was something else he was going to play.What these people thought was that Bruce was the closest reporter to Tang En in the media circle, and there might be some "inside information".

But Bruce's answer disappointed them all: "I was directly woken up from the bed by the boss, and I don't know what happened..."

A group of disappointed people turned around and wanted to leave. A man with the BBC logo pinned to his chest muttered, "Could it be Beckham?"

Hearing this, Bruce's heart skipped a beat.It's very possible...

He turned his gaze to the row of tables that were already filled with microphones and recording pens. The protagonist hasn't arrived yet, so everything can only be guesswork.

Just when the reporters were using their imaginations to guess what shocking news Tang En had to announce, Tang En was calling Beckham in the upstairs room.

As an "experienced person", he knows what kind of situation Beckham will face in Real Madrid after this press conference.Some things can be changed because of him, such as Beckham's change of court.But some things will never change even if the earth perishes, such as the character of the old guy Fabio Capello.

"I can almost see the expression on Capello's face when he heard the news." Dunn stood in front of the huge lattice window, looked at the busy reporters below and said to the phone, "I feel that before the official announcement of the news , I should remind you, David. Your actions will definitely anger that proud Italian, and he will regard this as a betrayal."

"The contract is signed, so you're afraid of making people angry if it's announced?" Beckham smiled on the other end of the phone. "I don't think there is anything wrong with what I do, even if Real Madrid are angry, I can't help it."

Tang En was silent for a while, and then said: "Okay... If Capello is really angry about this and wants to exile you... Although I know I have no position to say this, I still hope that you can Keep training, work hard with the goal of returning to the main lineup. That guy has a stubborn temper, but he is not completely unreasonable. This may be an opportunity for you, David. If you continue to train in this situation, He might change his mind about you, and in the last half of the season...give you a chance."

"What you said is the same as what I planned, Tony. I will not give up fighting for my position with Real Madrid just because I want to go to the Forest team next season. I don't want to..." Beckham was also silent for a while, "...I don't want to leave the Bernabeu as a loser. But Tony...it's this time, why do you suddenly care so much about Real Madrid, where I play, it doesn't matter if she is not your team?"

Tang En smiled wryly, and said to himself that I don't care about Real Madrid, it's just that you did it yourself.Saying this in my heart, I still found a high-sounding excuse: "Because I don't want my future players to be called 'losers who escaped the Bernabeu'. You know, my players are very strong."

Beckham laughed, and when he finished he said: "Thank you, Tony."

"Don't thank me, David. As a gift, I will give you a gift then."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Keep it secret, you won't be surprised if you tell it."

"Haha, okay, I'm waiting for your surprise, Tony."

After finishing the call, Dunn saw Allen Adams and Evan Dalgety standing behind him.

"When did you come?"

"When you said 'my players are all strong'." Evan smiled happily.

"Let's go, those people below should wait." Allen couldn't wait to announce the news.

"I think you were in a hurry." As soon as Tang En said this, the three of them laughed at the same time.

The last time the three of them attended the press conference at the same time was probably when Tony Twain was announced as the new head coach of the Forest team. This time it was to announce the joining of David Beckham.

These two times can be regarded as milestone events.The first time represents the take-off of Nottingham Forest's sports, and this time will it be the beginning of the overall economic growth of Nottingham Forest?

※ ※ ※

When the Big Three appeared at the press conference, the reporters all fell silent. Apart from the sound of machines working, there were no other human voices.

It is rare for all three to appear at a press conference at the same time.Some people's guesses have gradually been confirmed...

"I don't know how many people here have guessed the correct answer, but it doesn't matter, I'm going to announce the answer now." Tang En smiled and looked at the reporters in the audience. This is definitely sensational news. Before Who would have thought?not a single person!

"I don't want to talk nonsense, because everyone is still waiting to go back to post news and write manuscripts. So I will only say one sentence." Tang En raised his right index finger.

When everyone saw this finger, they held their breath, pricked up their ears, and widened their eyes.

"We are delighted to have reached an agreement with Real Madrid player David Beckham, who will join Nottingham Forest on a free transfer at the end of the season."

With a "boom", there was a huge noise in the venue that was so quiet that you could even hear a needle drop just now.

The three people sitting on the stage saw a group of reporters who were at a loss below, with satisfied smiles on their faces.
