The noise of Manchester United defeating their arch-rivals Liverpool 5-3 at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium, being crowned the king of Europe and becoming the first team in the history of European football to defend the treble has slowly faded away. Manchester United fans will occasionally talk about the grand occasion of the team returning to Manchester after winning the championship in Madrid.

On that day, the whole of Manchester was deserted and the club held the most spectacular and grand championship parade in the club's more than 100-year history.

On that day, the front pages of major sports media around the world were almost all dominated by the news that Manchester United won the fifth Champions League title in team history and was crowned the Treble for the third time.

In world football, the treble winner can be considered a football club. Any team that wins any three official football tournaments in a single season can be called a treble winner.

However, to be truly recognized as a treble, a team must win the domestic top football league championship, the domestic FA Cup championship, and the highest level continental football cup championship in a single season.

………………

In the history of European football, there are not many true treble winners. The Scottish team Celtic in the 1966-1967 season was the first team to win the treble.

Five years later, in the 1971-1972 season, Dutch Ajax, with Johan Cruyff, became the second team to win the treble.

In the 1987-1988 season, another Eredivisie team, PSV Eindhoven, won the season's treble.

Manchester United is the fourth true treble team and the first team in the top five leagues to win the treble.

Soon after, Barcelona in the 2008-2009 season, Inter Milan in the 2009-2010 season, and Bayern Munich in the 2012-2013 season successively won the treble.

These are all seven teams that have won the treble in European football so far.

It is very difficult to become a treble winning team, as can be seen from the fact that only seven teams have been able to win the treble since the birth of the Champions League. Many top clubs, including Real Madrid, AC Milan and Liverpool, have failed to accomplish such a feat.

However, Manchester United has completed the treble three times. Last season, they also won the English League Cup, becoming the season's Grand Slam. This season, they defended the treble for the second consecutive year, becoming the first team in history to defend the treble.

Such an achievement is hard to describe in any other words except great!

Mourinho became the first person in football history to lead two teams to achieve the treble, and he was the first person in history to lead a team to win the treble three times!

This also made his status as the only religion in the world become unprecedentedly stable.

Some fans who support Mourinho even believe that Mourinho is already the greatest head coach in football history.

Of course, this is not universally accepted.

………………

With Manchester United winning the Champions League, their competition tasks for this season have all been completed.

On the evening of June 6, Manchester United held a summary meeting for this season, at which various awards were given to the team. Bruno was once again named the best player in Manchester United after winning all three Premier League best player awards.

This is the third consecutive year that he has won all three of the Premier League's best awards, as well as Manchester United's best player.

Immediately afterwards, Bruno left Manchester and returned to Portugal.

Although Manchester United's club competition has ended, he still has two games for the Portuguese national team before the holiday begins.

This was the semi-final and final of the first UEFA Nations League.

If the Portuguese national team can beat Switzerland in the semi-finals, they will compete with the winner between the Netherlands and England for the first UEFA Nations League trophy.

If they lose, they will compete with the loser between the Netherlands and England for the third place in the first UEFA Nations League.

In the UEFA Nations League semi-final held on the evening of June 6, Portugal faced Switzerland at the Estadio do Dragao. Cristiano Ronaldo became the focus of the game, scoring a hat trick to help Portugal beat Switzerland 5:3.

Bruno started the game and played the entire game, and provided 1 assist.

Four days later, on the evening of June 6, the first European Nations League final was held at Porto's Dragon Stadium, with Portugal facing the Netherlands.

This time, Bruno became the most dazzling star. He first received a pass from Bernardo Silva in the 12th minute of the game to help Portugal score the first goal, and then in the 30th minute of the game, he shot with his right foot from the right side of the penalty area and broke through the goal guarded by Cillessen.

Guedes added the icing on the cake in the 60th minute of the game, helping Portugal lock the score at 3:0!

This is the fourth consecutive year that Portugal has won the tournament.

In the summer of 2016, they won the European Cup.

A year later, in 2017, they won the Russian Confederations Cup.

Last summer, they won the World Cup at the Luzhniki Stadium, becoming the third team in world football to win the treble after Brazil and France.

Now, they have won the first UEFA Nations League again. Bruno won the best player and the best player of the final of the first UEFA Nations League. In addition, he scored 4 goals and won the best scorer award, beating his national team teammate Cristiano Ronaldo.

………………

After finishing the Portugal national team's competition, Bruno officially began his vacation.

He still has one big thing to accomplish this summer, which is getting married.

More than a year ago, he and Vanessa decided to get married this summer. Although some changes happened later, the wedding was not cancelled.

However, there were some changes in Bruno's marriage. The bride was not just Vanessa, but two.

Yes, Bruno will win two brides at the same time. In addition to Vanessa, Liu Yimei will also marry him.

The wedding will take place in Qatar because Bruno is now a Qatari citizen in addition to his Portuguese nationality.

The wedding of the three was not made public, but was held secretly in the royal palace of Qatar, and only the three's closest relatives and friends attended.

All relatives and friends attending the wedding were told not to disclose details of the wedding to outsiders.

According to the agreement between the three, Liu Yimei will appear in the public eye as Bruno's wife, while Vanessa will appear as Bruno's personal assistant.

This is mainly because Liu Yimei is considering that if she has a baby in the future, it will definitely be a mixed-race baby, and the characteristics are too obvious to explain. However, Vanessa does not have such a problem.

After the wedding, the three flew to a private island in the Caribbean, Cabbage Island, for vacation. Bruno bought it for $2500 million. The island has 24 hills, three beaches, and a protected anchoring area. The large area of ​​vegetation and a large number of rare wild animals make it the most natural private island.

………………

While Bruno, Vanessa and Liu Yimei were on their honeymoon on a small island in the Caribbean, time had unknowingly entered July.

At this time, the new season has not yet started, and the team's training for the new season has not started. This is the most boring time for fans who are used to the noisy season.

In a bar in Manchester, sports news was playing on TV, reporting that Atletico Madrid's Spanish star Rodri was close to joining Manchester City.

On TV, a famous transfer expert vowed that Rodri would be able to come to Manchester City for a physical examination as early as tomorrow afternoon.

Afterwards, the reporter also randomly interviewed some Manchester City fans. The Blue Moon fans were very excited and they had already planned to go to the airport to pick up Rodri tomorrow.

When the transfer window just opened this summer, major media reported that Manchester City would spend 7000 million to buy Atletico Madrid midfielder Rodri.

The 23-year-old star made his debut in the Atletico Madrid youth team. In July 2013, Rodri joined the Villarreal youth team. Last summer, he returned to the Colchoneros for 7 million euros and quickly occupied the main defensive midfielder position. Throughout the season, he played 2500 times for Atletico Madrid in various competitions, helping Atletico Madrid win the La Liga runner-up and also the best defensive team in La Liga.

Manchester City signed Rodri to replace Fernandinho, who is already 34 years old. Although the Brazilian midfielder has been performing well in recent seasons, it is an indisputable fact that he is too old.

Rodri is highly appreciated by Guardiola, and the media almost insists that Rodri will not marry anyone but Manchester City. Take the transfer expert Patterson for example, he has repeatedly revealed that Rodri is getting closer and closer to Manchester City, and neither Rodri, Guardiola, nor Manchester City has denied it. So now Patterson has revealed that Rodri is about to come to Manchester City for a physical examination, and this news has also made Manchester City fans very happy.

………………

Looking at the excited Manchester City fans on TV, the Manchester United fans in front of the TV felt a little depressed and unhappy.

The transfer window has been open for more than a month, but Manchester United has made almost no moves in the transfer market.

In terms of player sales, Spanish midfielder Ander Herrera made it clear that he refused to renew his contract with Manchester United.

Due to the abundance of talent in Manchester United's midfield, Herrera has been getting less and less playing time. Although he has won numerous championships with the team in recent seasons, Herrera hopes to get more playing time.

However, Mourinho was unable to give him any guarantees in this regard, and had no choice but to agree to Herrera's transfer. In the end, Paris Saint-Germain spent 4000 million euros to take away the Spanish midfielder who was about to turn 30.

This outcome is a big change from the situation in another time and space where Herrera left Manchester United as a free agent this summer. This is directly related to the team's contract extension with Herrera in the summer of 2017.

Then the loan period of young goalkeeper Dean Henderson at Sheffield United was extended. The young England U21 national goalkeeper will continue to stay at Sheffield United for one year in the new season.

Manchester United has not made any moves so far in terms of signings.

In other words, the only action was to recall striker James Wilson, whose loan period at Aberdeen had expired, and temporarily put him on the first team's roster.
