Chapter 20 Interception Master
Kintag told Woodward that he was going to buy a defensive midfielder in Boulogne.

Woodward nodded: "Yes, no matter the team or the man, the waist is very important."

"Ed, you really stick to your business. It seems that the trip to Amsterdam has to be booked."

"I like this, hahahaha."

When Kintag came to Boulogne, they didn't go to Boulogne, the city's Ligue [-] club, but to a quiet apartment in a suburban area.

Woodward asked very puzzled: "I thought you were planning to go directly to the Boulogne club in the French second division?"

Jin Taige shook his finger: "Ed, you are wrong. Boulogne is no longer Ligue [-]. They have fallen from Ligue [-] to Ligue [-] in the past season."

"Oh, I'm really sad for them," Woodward pretended to be sad, but suddenly raised his brows again, "In this way, wouldn't it be cheaper to dig their people?"

"Ed, you really stick to your business. When the two of us are chatting, can you talk less about money?"

"Of course not, I was born for money," Woodward said very seriously. "Besides, we both have our own division of labor-you win for the club, and I make money for the club."

"Okay, let's cooperate tacitly."

"There must be a tacit understanding!"

"But this time our goal may be your favorite, because he is now a free agent, and we don't need to spend a penny on the transfer fee."

"I like this!"

The two walked forward while chatting, and soon came to an apartment on the outskirts of Boulogne.It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, very quiet and suitable for living, but the various living facilities are very average, at least far worse than the villas where the big stars in England live.

"It's really bad here." Woodward got out of the car and walked towards an apartment with Kintag.

Jin Taige also looked around: "It seems that my future midfield core seems to have very average economic conditions, but it is also true. Of course, the wages of Ligue [-] are incomparable with the Premier League."

"Yeah, it's not even as high as some players in our youth team."

The two walked while talking, and stopped at the door of an apartment.

"Is it here?"

"It should be here."

The two walked into the apartment. This fifth-floor apartment didn't even have a caretaker, so it was too shabby.Jin Taige and Woodward walked around for a long time before they came to a house number. After confirming that it was correct, Jin Taige knocked lightly on the door.

After a long time, someone opened the door. A black man who was not tall opened the door. He looked at the two strange guests in front of him and felt a little strange: "Who are you looking for?"

"Hi, N'Golo Kante, I'm here to find you." Kintag said in French.

Kanter was taken aback, and looked at Jintag and Woodward again, making sure that he didn't know them, but he still politely invited them into the room, and then let them sit on the sofa: "Gentlemen, please wait a moment, I Go get you a cup of coffee."

Watching Kanter turn and leave to go to the kitchen, Woodward asked Kim Tag in surprise: "You can, when did you learn to speak French?"

"A few days ago I learned it from a hotel waiter," Jin Taige replied honestly, "and only learned a few sentences."

Woodward suppressed a smile: "Let me just say, because you buy a player, you learn a foreign language. You are working too hard as a head coach."

The two were chatting, and Kanter brought two cups of French green coffee for them, and then sat across from them.

Jin Taige said politely in French: "Thank you."

"You're welcome," Kanter said, and he looked at the two suspiciously, "Gentlemen, by the looks of you, you shouldn't be French, right?"

Kim Tag spread his hands to Woodward: "'Thank you' is the second French sentence I can speak, and I will rely on you to translate for us."

"Okay," Woodward couldn't laugh or cry, "After I go back, I must apply to the board of directors and give me an additional salary as a part-time translator."

But having said that, this time Kim Tag was traveling with Woodward, which really solved the big problem.He has close ties with the representatives of many European clubs, so no matter which country or city he goes to, he is almost always received by someone. The mainstream languages ​​of most countries can be said to be well-known. If you don’t look at his appearance and only listen to his words, it is difficult for ordinary people to tell which country he is from.

Hearing Jintag and Woodward speak English, Kanter was stunned for a moment: "Has my house sale information been released to the UK?"

"Selling a house?" Woodward was immediately happy when he heard it, "Mr. Kanter, the two of us are not from a real estate transaction company. I came to you because I was going to sign a contract with you that was higher than the price of the house." .”

"What's the situation?" Kanter became more and more confused as he listened, and he was even a little vigilant, wondering if the two people in front of him were liars.

Jin Taige listened to the conversation between the two, and now he looked confused: "Ed, what are you talking about, let's get to the point quickly."

Woodward regained his seriousness at this time. He communicated with Kanter and explained the identities and intentions of the two to Kanter.

Kanter was taken aback!It never occurred to him that the Englishman with a Chinese face in front of him was actually the new coach of Manchester United?And he wants to sign himself?

At this time, Woodward leaned back and completely handed over the initiative of communication to Kim Tag, and he began to do the French translation conscientiously.Jin Taige said with a smile: "Mr. Kanter, in order to show my sincerity, I learned a few words of French, learned to say your name, and said thank you. Apart from that, I can't say anything else. gone."

Kanter was amused by Kintag's words: "Mr. Tiger, football is the best language for human beings, so there is no obstacle for us to communicate, isn't it?"

Jin Taige slapped his hands hard: "You are beautiful! With your emotional intelligence, you will definitely be the core of Manchester United's midfield in the future."

"Huh? Does it matter?"

Jin Taige nodded: "Mr. Kanter, I just took over as the coach of Manchester United not long ago. What I need most now is a midfield puzzle. I have been paying attention to you for a long time. You are a rare interception master in today's football. Come to me, I It will bring your talents to the limit, win many championships... and sign a big contract that exceeds the price of your house."

In fact, Woodward added the last sentence privately when he translated it. He is more pragmatic than Kintag’s idealism, so he thinks this sentence can be used as a weight to increase Kanter’s signing.
