Chapter 469 (The first monthly ticket/monthly supplement(1/2)
Mustafa Salif is in flames.
After the match between Aston Villa and Liverpool, England's sports newspapers, television media, and even the Internet all talk about and evaluate the game, talking about Salif's who scored twice.
"This Togolese goal reminds me of Michael (Irving)."
"God, I was at Anfield Stadium, and at that moment, I was really uncomfortable."
"I heard that Vera was going to sell Salif before, hell! Why didn't she sell it?"
In this round of the league, traditional Premier League teams won one after another, Manchester United beat Wigan Athletics five-to-zero, Arsenal beat Portsmouth four-to-one at home, and Chelsea beat Fulham 2-0 away.
Among the traditional giants, only Liverpool lost.
This further highlights how important these two goals of Salif's were, and how wonderful his performance was.
"Aston Villa's most anticipated 'signs' in this transfer market!" - The Birmingham Evening News said happily that the newspaper believed that Fang Jue unexpectedly mentioned Salif to the front line and 'created' forward Salif, which was Villa's surprise 'signs'.
"These two goals remind us of Michael (Irving) at our peak!" - The Guardian.
...
Manchester.
Carrington Training Base.
The game video has been played and the screen is frozen.
"What do you think?" Ferguson rubbed his forehead. This was a 67-year-old man who had delayed his retirement decision twice. Manchester United fans hoped that he could continue to work in this position, but time would not forgive him.
"The timing of running and the calmness of shooting reminded me of Michael at my peak," said McFerran.
"There are also changes in high-speed dribbling, and they are very skilled in the art." Mullenstin said.
Ferguson didn't say anything immediately. He took out a box of chewing gum from the drawer, pulled the candy paper away, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly. He liked the strong and stimulating taste buds when the chewing gum just came into his mouth...
Ferguson likes to chew gum very much, and this habit has been maintained for decades. He once responded to this topic in an interview with reporters, saying that at first it was just because chewing gum could help him think better, but later this habit could not be changed.
"Just, this is an opportunity to make up for our regrets," said McFerran.
Ferran refers to the incident where Ferguson and Manchester United missed Irving.
Irving was very popular when he was a child. He came to Manchester United's school to train when he was about 13 years old.
Both Ferguson and Manchester United are very optimistic about the admission.
But 'This fool went to the damn Liverpool!' - the original words Ferguson said angry at the time.
"If we can sign him before other teams, we'll find gold."
"The good news now is that Aston Villa has recommended Salif to us before," Mullenstin said.
"Contact Villa." Ferguson made the decision.
...
Fang Jue was wearing sunglasses and stood in the sunny training ground.
He looked up and looked like the king was patrolling his territory.
On the second day of the away game against Liverpool, Fang Jue gave the team half a day off, so the training ground for the first team was empty at this time.
"Manchester United sent a fax and they offered £0 million to buy Mustafa Salif," said the club ceo Bob Clark.
"Too few." Fang Jue shook his head.
"I think so too." Clark nodded. Not to mention Salif's original value, the influence of Salif's two goals was more than 8 million pounds.
"Why are we not considering keeping the Togoles?" asked John Pittels, the club's technical director.
"We have Abanglaho." Fang Jue shook his head and said, "Abanglahogan is young, and has a brighter future."
Naturally, he could not tell the truth, so he could only say that, but the reason given by Fang Jue is still somewhat convincing.
"You don't seem to be very optimistic about the Dogo people." Bob Clark asked. They had heard that Fang Jue had a very accurate view of people.
"It's hard to say that Salif's skills have been finalized, and no one can guarantee that his performance yesterday was just a flash of inspiration."
"That's true." Pittels nodded, "I have no objection as long as it can be sold at a high price."
...
After afternoon training.
Fang Jue left Mustafa Salif.
"Mustafa, your agent should tell you that Manchester United wants you," Fang Jue said.
"Yes, coach, Quinn told me."
"What do you think?" Fang Jue asked.
Salif glanced at Fang Jue and scratched his head, as if he didn't know how to answer.
"Okay, I know what you think." Fang Jue sighed, "Yes, I told you before that you know you are a Manchester United fan. If Manchester United wants you, I will not set up obstacles."
As he said that, Fang Jue patted Salif's shoulder, "Do you want to hear my truth?"
Salif looked up at him.
"I know you want to go to Manchester United, but I would rather shoot you than sell you to Manchester United."
Salif was shocked by the words and looked at his coach.
"Coach, I haven't actually decided yet, I'm still thinking about it," Salif said.
Don't... Fang Jue's heart beat faster, and he doubted whether he had used too much force.
"Listen to me," Fang Jue signaled Salif to follow, "I know your dream, so I won't stop you, but there is a condition that someone is willing to pay for the transfer fee that satisfies the club."
Salif's heart skipped a beat. He felt that he understood what the coach meant, which made him slightly disappointed.
Although he had the idea of going to Manchester United and going to a wealthy club, he still hoped that the coach could resolutely keep him.
I was not very happy to hear that I was measured by transfer fees.
"If I sell you at an inappropriate price, I will lose my honor." Fang Jue squeezed out a smile, "If you want to get the players I am optimistic about, you must show sincerity."
Hearing Fang Jue say this, Salif felt much more comfortable.
He felt that he had blamed the coach for wrongly.
The coach said that truth, and it can be seen that the coach still couldn't bear to leave him.
...
"Queen, do I want to stay in Aston Villa?" Back at the residence, Salif asked his agent.
"Of course not!" Quinn Serif Padradra's face changed and said seriously, "Listen to me, Mustafa, leave Vera."
"In Villa, there are Abonraho, Husky, and Van Nie is about to recover from injury, and the Brazilian, the competition is fierce."
"And, your outstanding performance in the last game made Manchester United look at you, and this is an opportunity to join Manchester United." Padradra said, "Didn't you always dream of joining Manchester United?"
"But……"
"If you miss it, you will regret the opportunity for a lifetime."
"Yeah, you're right!"
"About the transfer fee, I will communicate with Manchester United." The agent said with a pleasant tone, "Fang Jue is right. The transfer value represents your future position in Manchester United."
...
"Jazz, Vera rejected our offer of £1 million."
"They offered £15 million!"
"Fang, Manchester United's second offer is £10 million."
Aston Villa and Manchester United have made intensive progress in transfer negotiations on Mustafa Salif.
However, Aston Villa has been biting the price of 13 million pounds and not letting go. Manchester United is only willing to pay 11 million pounds, and the two sides still have differences.
Ferguson and Fang Jue had a call, and the first exchange between the two sides was quite pleasant.
Both sides expressed their willingness to take a step back.
This also made Ferguson breathe a sigh of relief. He estimated that the price of 12 million pounds should be negotiated.
The regret of missing Irving was compensated for by a 26-year-old Togolese player, which was also perfect.
Then, on the 27th of the month, Mike Ferran hurried into the head coach's office, "Alex and Aston Villa terminated the negotiations."
"What's going on?" Ferguson frowned.
Three hours later, Mustafa Salif is also talking to his agent Padradra.
"Queen, what's going on?"
"I won't go to Manchester City!"
"I'm going to Manchester United."
"Help me reject Manchester City!"
