The Greatest Performer on the Football Field

It was originally planned that Sun Wu would be responsible for summer recruitment as an assistant coach, and then announced in early August that he would lead the team as acting head coach.

Well now, Mourinho, a big mouth, casually guessed that Manchester United neither wanted to admit nor deny it. The media immediately pounced on it and started various analyses. Even the betting company immediately added Sun Wu's name to the candidate list of head coach. , the odds are pretty good.

One of the main reasons why Manchester United does not want to announce in advance is that Sun Wu hopes to take advantage of this period to buy a few favorites that he has not had the opportunity to contact before.

This makes Sun Wu not angry or angry. Miguel and Jesus have already left with Pochettino. The only first-team assistant coaches are Mike Phelan, Ryan Giggs and the recently retired Carrick. Everyone is supportive. Helpless, if nothing else, Manchester United will probably have to raise the price if they want to buy someone. There is no way, Sun Wu's reputation in this regard is too loud.

What to do... Sun Wu calmed down after his outburst, The signings will continue...but sell people first, Mike. Contact the media in this regard and try to stir up hot topics.

The higher the price, the higher the price, which also proves the appeal of Manchester United's young talent.

Sun Wu was about to speak when his cell phone rang suddenly.

Tony? Sun Wu was a little surprised. It was Toni Kroos, a friend of Barcelona for many years. This was also a rare chat with Sun Wu after the final... Others such as Pique and Busquets refused to answer Sun Wu's call. .

Are you really going to be a head coach? Cross couldn't help but laugh: To be honest, Best, you are quite suitable to be a head coach rather than a player.

Why do you care so much! Sun Wu sneered: Do you want to come to Manchester United? Yes, you have no chance to play in Barcelona. Don't look at Xavi having left...

You didn't watch the news? Cross interrupted angrily.

Where? Sun Wu quickly changed his hands and opened the web page, Real Madrid!

kindness.

Sun Wu was silent for a moment and whispered: Tony, I wish you good luck.

After hanging up the phone, Sun Wu lamented that it is really difficult to change the trajectory of fate. Sometimes, even if it temporarily goes off the track, it will eventually end up on the same path.

Thomas Muller became famous at Manchester United but is about to return to Bayern Munich. Kroos chose Real Madrid after a season in Barcelona.

There are also the wings Sanchez and Hazard who were recruited to Tottenham by Sun Wu and Guardiola.

Eventually he went to Arsenal and Chelsea.

However, Sun Wu does not feel that the trajectory of fate cannot be changed. Griezmann, Fletcher, Mane, and Shaqiri have all taken another path, perhaps because they are closer to him?

Ahem. Sun Wu coughed twice and took a few steps back and forth. Mike, you are responsible for the internal management of the coaching staff. You will arrange scout observations, contact with the opposing club and follow-up negotiations. Finance Director Batty will send a deputy to assist you. .”

Wait a minute, Best, the most important thing for you right now is... Mike Phelan mouthed expressionlessly at the office building next door outside the window, sign the contract.

Two servings, right?

Of course, otherwise Woodward is afraid that you will make trouble...

Sun Wu was also speechless, thought for a while and went straight out.

On June 14, Manchester United's official website announced that the team's captain and assistant coach Best signed a five-year contract extension.

According to the Daily Mail, Sun Wu's weekly salary has increased to 240,000 pounds, which is the top salary in the Premier League, and Sun Wu's various bonuses are quite generous. Of course, these bonuses have additional conditions.

In the afternoon of the same day, Manchester United's official website announced the signing of Brazilian player Fabinho from Rio Ave in the Portuguese League. The full-back was loaned to Monaco last season. He played 34 times in all competitions and scored one goal. Net worth is 4.8 million pounds.

In fact, Manchester United not only signed Fabinho himself in this signing, but also signed Rebecca from the Monaco women's football team, who is Fabinho's new wife.

However, Rebecca did not come here because of her husband's transfer. In fact, the Monaco women's football team is quite famous, and the Manchester United women's football team... Many people don't believe it. It was just established this year.

Fabinho's transfer didn't cause much commotion, but fans and experts who pay special attention to Manchester United have keenly discovered that Manchester United has a lot of people at the right back position. In addition to Coleman and Valencia, Ashley Young , Miner can also play, and now Fabinho is here.

This directly led Valencia to find Sun Wu. The Ecuadorian knew it well and knew Sun Wu's importance in the club.

Although Sun Wu repeatedly explained, Valencia still decided to leave. The reason is very simple. He has just turned 30 this year and is still at the end of the golden period of his career, but he can no longer play the main role at Manchester United.

Last season, Valencia and Coleman shared playing time, but this season, Coleman became the main force. Valencia did not have a chance to play in most important games, and he did not even make the squad in the Champions League final.

Similar to him is Ashley Young, who is also 30 years old this year. Although he has been the main player for most of the season and performed well, both Sun Wu and Pochettino prefer Luke Shaw.

Luke Shaw was sent off in the Champions League final, but Sun Wu chose Rojo, which made Professor Yang feel uneasy.

Valencia and Ashley Young's contracts expire at the end of June. They have not been able to reach a contract extension agreement this season. They hope to increase their salary, but the club is not willing. The price/performance ratio is too low... two rotating full-backs The weekly salary is about 140,000 pounds.

Now that Fabinho has joined them and they are determined to leave, it is obvious that Manchester United are looking for a backup.

Sun Wu hopes that they can stay. Pavard is too young, and the left back is probably the most difficult to recruit in the summer, but for them, leaving is the best choice.

I have tasted the taste of the league championship many times, and I have also won the Champions League championship. It doesn't matter if I stay as a substitute, but the most terrible thing is that the weekly salary cannot be increased.

Why not take advantage of this opportunity to jump out? It just so happens that when the contract expires, you don’t have to spend any money, you can get a large signing fee, your weekly salary will not be low, and you can be the main force... This is the last job of their career. Big contract.

In fact, this is also a good thing for Manchester United. A team that has been at the top for a long time needs to constantly change its blood, and the players who need to be eliminated most are those players who are older, have high salaries, and are not enterprising.

It's a pity for Sun Wu. Rojo is still suitable to play as a central defender, Luke Shaw is prone to injury, and Ashley Young is actually quite useful.

But he insisted on leaving, and the contract was about to expire, and Sun Wu didn't want to stop him. Besides... Unless Professor Yang only signed a one-year contract, Professor Yang in the non-contract year would be just average.

Contract renewal negotiations that lasted for more than half a season have yielded no results. In fact, the club staff responsible for the negotiations have given up.

June 16th.

Manchester United's official website sends blessings to the two veterans who have left the team. Valencia and Ashley Young are not short of new homes.

Within a week of the Champions League final, Pochettino left with his team, and Valencia and Ashley Young also left when their contracts expired. In addition to returning on loan, Manchester United only spent less than 6 million pounds to sign two young players. , there are more and more discussions in the outside media.

But Woodward is as stable as a rock, because it has been several days since the news that Sun Wu might take over as head coach was exposed. Manchester United's stock was affected by this... it did not fall, but continued to rise.
