[Football] The transfer fee is 10 billion

This is the top floor of a five-star hotel located in the center of Madrid. There are few rooms on the entire floor and the prices are high, so there are very few guests living on this floor. less stay.

Ling Yun seldom pays attention to who lives next door to his hotel room, but this time, by accident, he subconsciously turned his head and glanced in the direction of the sound.

A tall and straight figure appeared in the corridor. The man was wearing a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up at the elbows, exposing his muscular forearms. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked casually with his head down.

"Hi!" Ling Yun took the initiative to greet the other party almost the next second after seeing his face clearly, and the excitement and joy of "everyone looks for him thousands of times" surged in his heart, and blurted out without thinking, "Do you still remember me?" ?”

That's right, the person he accidentally ran into in the hotel corridor was the target of his visit to Madrid - Xavi Alonso.

Real Madrid's training ended at [-]:[-] pm today, but the Valdebebas training base is still very lively, because a new member who flew in from London for a medical examination came. During the nearly month-long tug-of-war, Real Madrid In the end, the Croatian known as the midfielder magician was obtained from Tottenham.

So the sports manager, medical team, team leader and several base staff surrounded the incoming new member and went through the process.

Alonso just glanced at it from afar during training in the afternoon. They have faced each other for a season in the Premier League. The two who are both organizational midfielders will not only be teammates in the next season, but also a competitive relationship. .

If Alonso still chooses to stay in Real Madrid.

Of course he is confident that he can play the main force under Mourinho, but he also knows that Modric is younger than himself and has overlapping positions. Real Madrid will eventually buy him to replace him.

After the training, he didn't stay at the club for a long time, and he also turned down some activities arranged by his agent, and went directly back to the hotel.He needs a quiet and alone night to think about a very important issue, which is his future career plan.

When Alonso raised his head, he was at a loss for a moment. When he saw Ling Yun's face clearly, he remembered that night in Ibiza a month ago. Polite and friendly smile: "Of course I remember, I didn't expect to meet you here."

At this time, Nick had already opened the door and saw his boss talking with another person in the corridor, so he stood quietly inside the door, neither speaking nor looking around curiously.

Ling Yun is a very sensitive person, especially now, the moment he saw Alonso, countless thoughts turned in his mind.First of all, he has to confirm whether the other party knows his current identity.Obviously, Alonso didn't know, probably because he didn't have time to watch the news, and maybe he didn't care who the new president of Arsenal was.

Then, he noticed a detail. Although the other party had a smile on his face, the smile was a bit forced.His state at this moment looks completely different from that night in Ibiza. Now he looks a little tired and has no interest in chatting.

After a short thought, Ling Yun quickly captured some important information, but he quickly suppressed his excited and bold thoughts, and pointed to his room with a smile: "I live next to you, we have time together Have a cup of coffee."

This is not an interrogative sentence, but a declarative sentence. Alonso smiled noncommittally. Ling Yun's enthusiasm was just right, and he didn't go any further. Instead, he turned his head and said "see you" before entering the room.

Nick who was standing at the door was pushed lightly by him, and he staggered two steps back. As soon as he stood still, he felt something stuffed in his hand, and then his boss blew away from him like a gust of wind. After passing by, he was already sitting on the sofa a few meters away in the blink of an eye: "Charge the battery for me, thank you."

While speaking, Ling Yun had already turned on the laptop on the coffee table, and began to look up the information he wanted.

He had some ideas in his head about how to persuade Alonso, who had already turned them down, to take an interest in Arsenal again, but he couldn't make it out.

At this time Luo Cheng came out of the room, Ling Yun raised his head and saw him and said excitedly: "Brother Cheng, guess who I met in the corridor?"

"Who?" Luo Cheng sat opposite him, looking at the brilliance on his face at this moment, it was his confidence and sharpness when he faced challenges and faced difficulties.

"The goal of our trip." Ling Yun stared at the laptop screen, which showed an email from their scout in Spain, which contained all the information of Harvey Alonso, including some more private ones. personal information.

Luo Cheng was also a little surprised: "You saw Harvey Alonso?"

Ling Yun's voice and tone of voice were full of uncontrollable excitement, like a hunter who had been lurking in the forest for many days and finally found his prey: "I must take him down today!"

"Today?" Nick, who was plugging his phone into the charger, asked in surprise, "You won't be knocking on someone's door for a while, are you? He just rejected us through his agent this afternoon, so he will go to the player himself in private. Won't it be a little abrupt?"

"Yes, but I can't control that much. The team has a game the day after tomorrow. I promised everyone to live with them the night before the game. I will also have to watch the game live. I can't break my promise. We must return to England by tomorrow afternoon at the latest , no matter what the result is today, I must go and have a chat with him."

Ling Yun raised his head and gave him a cold swishing look: "There's so much nonsense, go, ask the room service to deliver the dinner to the room, we won't go out tonight."

The two of them used to be college classmates, so they talked more casually in private.

Nick never thought that the status of "Arsenal fan" would bring him an enviable good job after graduating from university, and the one who offered him an olive branch was the guy who had been with him for several years, took classes together during the day, Good friends who watch the game together at night.

So much so that for a long time, he had the illusion that the sky was falling, and he became a little restrained in front of Ling Yun, and he completely lost the intimacy of his former classmates. It was Ling Yun who put his arms around his shoulders and half-jokingly treated him Said, "Keep my personal admiration private, don't bring it to work", the two exchanged a few words, and then established a normal relationship between the superior and the subordinate in the work status, and good friends in private .

Luo Cheng poured a glass of water and put it in front of him: "I also think it's impolite for you to knock on someone's door rashly, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating."

"Let me tell you a secret," Ling Yun focused on checking the information while talking to them while deliberately avoiding those weird personal privacy, "I know him."

Nick, who was ordering food on the phone, complained in his heart: "Isn't this nonsense, those who watch the game don't know Harvey Alonso."

But Luo Cheng understood Ling Yun's meaning: "Have you ever had contact?"

Ling Yun nodded: "Just over a month ago in Ibiza, Nick and I went to discuss the purchase contract with Fitzman, and I happened to be in a roadside cafe that night, and I heard..."

Speaking of this, a thought flashed through Ling Yun's mind, but he didn't grasp it, but he instinctively felt that it might be the key to finalizing this transfer.

"What's wrong?" Luo Cheng asked.

"It's nothing." Ling Yun shook his head, not sure what he wanted to discuss yet, "I just think that Alonso must have already thought about leaving Real Madrid, and if the next home is not Arsenal, it will be something else The team, the reason why he decisively rejected Arsenal was that unhappy transfer attempt four years ago, as long as we show sincerity and give him enough respect, we will definitely be able to impress him.”

There is only one week left before the end of the summer transfer period. It is impossible for them to spend all of this week in Madrid. Ling Yun also said that they must return to England tomorrow afternoon, and Alonso still has training in the morning. If Ling Yun wants to directly Talk to him, or fly over after the game the day after tomorrow, or only tonight is left.

"You go," Luo Cheng thought for a moment, weighed it over and over again, and thought that Ling Yun's encounter with Alonso in the corridor just now was a rare opportunity, and maybe they could really settle their last signing goal of the season, " But don’t be too aggressive, if you can’t, we’ll come back after the game, anyway, there’s still a week to go, just two days, training and competition, it’s unlikely that he will sign with another club.”

The dinner was an expensive set menu at the hotel, but Ling Yun only ate two casual bites and went back to his room.He first changed his loose T-shirt and shorts into a shirt and trousers, dried his hair and picked up a less formal but rather nice hairstyle.

After tidying himself up, he showed an amiable smile in the mirror. Boss Xiaoling has whatever appearance, figure and temperament he wants, and he is pleasing no matter how he looks, so he shouldn't be turned away by others.

It's been more than half an hour since dinner, and he has already figured out which aspects to try to persuade the other party, and listed several reasons in detail, money, honor, playing time, status in the team...

But in fact, he has no confidence in his heart, because he always feels that other clubs are even more convincing than Arsenal in these things. For example, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain are the overlords of the domestic league, at least they can easily make a promise. League championship or something.

But for a while, he really couldn't think of any reason for Alonso not to go to Arsenal. Even if he stayed in Real Madrid, it would be better than going to North London with him.

Even so, he was going to give it a try.

His desire to put Xavi Alonso on the Arsenal jersey is even more urgent than the previous ones. It is hard to say why, or the final in Istanbul many years ago left him too deep.

When Ling Yun stood at the door of Alonso's room, all his worries, hesitation and hesitation were left behind by him.
