Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs

  Chapter 39 The Spanish Procurement

   Wenger answered the phone: "I'm Wenger."

   "Boss, Cesc Fabregas gave the final answer. As long as we are willing to add a buy-back clause, he will join our Arsenal. Otherwise, he will go to Crystal Palace."

   "What did you say? Crystal Palace?"

   "Yes, boss, it is Crystal Palace, the British Championship team that has been in the limelight recently. I also found out that Cesc Fabregas only made a new request for the buyback clause after seeing the people of Crystal Palace these days."

  “.”

  Chen Ran, this guy again.

  Chen Ran's name immediately appeared in Wenger's mind.

   He has remembered Chen Ran's name since Crystal Palace snatched Ronaldo from Premier League giants such as Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool last time.

   I didn't expect that this time, it was this Chinese who was bad for him.

   "Boss, what should we do now? Will you agree to Cesc Fabregas' request?"

   "Tell Cesc Fabregas, it's a pity that we can't agree to this request, and I look forward to opportunities for cooperation in the future."

   "Okay, boss."

"Snapped!"

   Wenger hung up the phone heavily.

   In recent years, apart from a few people such as his old rival Ferguson, very few people can make Wenger angry.

   Now, one more.

   "Chen Ran, you'd better stay in the Championship with Crystal Palace honestly. Otherwise, I will make you regret it." Wenger muttered to himself.

   Immediately afterwards, he seemed to remember something and called his assistant.

   "Starting today, set up a separate file for Crystal Palace and its boss Chen Ran. Their every move must be recorded and archived, and I will check it at any time. Understand?"

   "Understood. However, although the boss, Crystal Palace and the Chinese are very popular now, they are only a British Championship team after all. Are they worthy of our attention?"

   Wenger ignored the assistant's question and went straight to the window, looking out at the training ground. After a long time, Yunyou said something.

   "I have a hunch that this Crystal Palace will likely become our strongest opponent in the future."

  Barcelona, ​​when Cesc Fabregas got a reply from Arsenal, he informed Chen Ran immediately.

  Without Arsenal, the biggest competitor, things will be much easier.

   The toughest part, Fabregas, was taken care of, and the rest of Pique and the others were taken down by Chen Ran and Louis one by one.

   I have to say that although Ferguson is better than Wenger in terms of coaching performance, Wenger is more attentive than Ferguson when it comes to excavating new players.

  The current Manchester United is only beginning to contact Pique, and it doesn't seem to be very interested.

   In his previous life, Pique joined Manchester United a year later.

   Therefore, under the demonstration effect of Cesc Fabregas, coupled with the persuasion of the Barcelona Club, and the personal invitation of Chen Ran. Pique and three others have also signed contracts with Crystal Palace.

   So far, Chen Ran's big purchase in Spain has come to a successful conclusion.

  Because he had to prepare for the next game, he left the finishing work to Louis, and flew back to London with satisfaction.

   In the fifth round of the British Championship, Crystal Palace will play Millwall away.

   The opponent is now ranked fifth, and is also a good team at this stage.

   Sheffield United in the last round brought a lot of trouble to Crystal Palace, so Chen Ran did not dare to take it lightly. Who knows what new ways the opponent will come up with to deal with him this time.

   As for Cesc Fabregas and others, Chen Ran didn't expect them to provide any help in a short period of time.

   After all, they are only half-aged 16-year-olds. They must first arrange their accommodation, then find an English teacher for them, and finally wait for them to adapt to the new environment and new teammates before they can play the game.

   After getting off the plane, Chen Ran didn't even go home, and went directly to the club from the airport.

   "Josep, this time I brought in five young players from Barcelona. They are all Spaniards just like you. You should take care of them when you are free."

   "Little player? La Masia's?"

   Guardiola, who was also born in La Masia, immediately thought of La Masia when he heard about Barcelona and the small players.

   "That's right, all five of them. They are the best players in this class of La Masia."

   "Boss, are you going to La Masia to dig people this time?"

   Guardiola and his three assistant coaches only knew that Chen Ran was busy with signings recently, but they didn't know who the specific target was.

   Now seeing that Chen Ran brought back five La Masia players, Guardiola immediately thought that Chen Ran was running to dig the corner of Barcelona.

   Although he was a little unhappy when he left Barcelona, ​​after all, he has an inseparable relationship with Barcelona, ​​and he didn't know what to say for a while.

   "Haha, Josep, don't worry. The players I brought back were all approved by the Barcelona club, and they helped to persuade us to join us in Crystal Palace."

"impossible?"

"how is this possible?"

   "Boss, is what you said true?"

   This time, not only Guardiola, but also Simeone and Southgate were taken aback by Chen Ran.

   Are there any clubs that persuade their players to join other clubs?

   is not a veteran who is about to retire and is useless.

   These are all young talents who have just turned 16 and have been carefully cultivated by La Masia.

   "It's absolutely true. If you don't believe it, when you see them, just ask yourself."

  Chen Ran briefly explained his trip to Spain to the three of them.

   Gawked, dumbfounded, speechless, that's how Guardiola, Southgate and Simeone look now.

  I have to obey. The boss is the boss. This method is really not something that ordinary people can think of.

   After Cristiano Ronaldo last time, Chen Ran successfully robbed someone from the giants once again.

  You know, Crystal Palace is still just a small Championship club.

   Who else can do it?

   The three of them looked at each other, and they all felt a deep sense of powerlessness, feeling that they had been crushed in terms of IQ.

   "How is the situation of the team recently? Is there anything unusual? The players are not fluttering like before, right?"

   As soon as the conversation changed, Chen Ran asked what he was most concerned about now.

   "Don't worry, boss, since your last lecture, these guys have been much more honest."

   Hearing Chen Ran asking about the status of the team, Southgate immediately entered the state.

  Pep Guardiola and Simeone rolled their eyes when they heard it. It seemed that you were one of the people who fluttered last time.

   "Then I asked the full backs you added in training to fully press the attacking routine. How was the practice?"

   "The effect is good, the players are not unfamiliar with this. This is a small part of Josep's tactics. It's not complicated. Josep has explained it to them before."

   "That's good, this time we are going to play Millwall on the road. To be safe, let's start with Diego's defensive counterattack tactics. Let's see how the opponents line up and then decide how to deal with it next."

"clear."

   hesitated, and Southgate spoke again.

   "Boss, when playing against Millwall, there is one person we should be careful about."

"Who?"
