"He is one of the best young players I have ever seen!"
"His long pass is simply amazing!"
"I use my more than ten years of scouting career as a guarantee!"
"How can you make such a rash judgment?"
"Not even giving him a chance to try out?"
Manchester United head coach's office.
The anger of scouting director Jim Lawler.
Even Long Fei, who was sitting outside and waiting, could hear it very clearly.
In the office.
Manchester United head coach Louis van Gaal stubbornly shook his head.
"Jim, I know the team is in a very difficult situation right now."
"But there’s no need for you to seek medical treatment for an emergency, right?"
"A guy from the Dragon Country, and an 18-year-old boy who has never even made it to the national team!"
"You asked me to give players like this a chance to try out"
"I even think you are wasting my time!"
Manchester United has still not gotten out of the trough this season.
Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in the summer of 2013,
Manchester United has fallen all the way from the league championship.
In the 2014 season, new coach Moyes set many shameful records. For the first time We suffered a double defeat at home by the top three teams in the North West, Liverpool, Everton and Manchester City. It was the first time we conceded a goal in the first minute of a Premier League match.
We secured the lowest points in the history of the Premier League four games ahead of schedule.
After clearing out Moyes.
The results of the newly appointed coach Van Gaal are not very good either.
Currently at the halfway mark of the league, Manchester United is not even in the top four in the league rankings.
Only ranked in the middle of the league.
Coach Louis van Gaal was originally dissatisfied with the signings in the winter transfer window.
Now Jim comes with a Dragon Nation player to sign.
In his opinion, it was simply adding to the chaos.
After communication failed.
Jim had to leave the office with an angry look on his face
"Ed gave Van Gaal too much power!"
"He even refused to give the players a chance to try out! It’s entirely up to your own preferences, that’s too much!"
The Ed Jim was talking about was referring to Ed Woodward, the CEO of Manchester United.
At this time, Jim brought Long Fei to Woodward's office.
"Jim, are you back from Dragon Kingdom? Why don't you tell me in advance that you have worked hard on this trip to Anzhou."
Seeing Jim come in, Woodward said with a smile.
He looked at Long Fei again and said doubtfully:
"Who is this?"
"This is a talented player I discovered during my trip to the East. I think the team should give him a chance!"
"But Van Gaal was so stubborn that he didn't even agree to a trial!"
Jim said with an angry look.
When he heard that Long Fei came from the Dragon Kingdom,
Woodward's eyes were slightly dim.
He knew the football level of the Dragon Kingdom.
He also understood why the coach Van Gaal was too lazy to give the players a try. Obviously,
I feel that this Dragon Kingdom player will definitely not meet the team's requirements.
There are precedents for Anzhou players to succeed at Manchester United.
For example, Park Ji-sung of Kimchi Country and Kagawa Shinji of Sakura Country.
But Dragon Country It is indeed difficult for people to regain confidence in Chinese players. However, Woodward still respects Jim very much.
He believes in Jim's vision.
The friendly match between Manchester United and Portuguese Super League Sporting Lisbon was planned by Jim. In this game, the 18-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo of Sporting Lisbon successfully conquered the coach Ferguson.
It also allowed Sir Alex Ferguson to recruit Ronaldo.
Just a few years later, this super star won the Ballon d'Or and became became the best in the world.
The successful discovery of Cristiano Ronaldo also became a glorious event on Jim's resume.
Woodward rarely saw Jim praise a young player so highly.
He took a look at Long Fei.
This young player should have his own Woodward said:"Jim, I believe in your vision."
"But have you ever thought that even if he passed the team's tryout?"
"As a non-European player, he needs a labor certificate if he wants to play in the Premier League."
"But the application for labor certificationObviously, Long Fei is not qualified to apply."
Jim sighed slightly.
To apply for a Premier League labor certificate, the players applying must not only meet the national team's appearance requirements.
There are also requirements for the FIFA ranking of the player's country.
It is a pity that Long Fei, as a Dragon Country player.
This Neither condition is met
"We can try the genius clause! Jim said unwillingly
"If the talent player clause is passed"
"Then he doesn't need a labor certificate to play for Manchester United!"
Woodward shook his head:
"Of course we can apply to the English Football Association for the terms of talented players."
"But you know, this application must be reviewed and reviewed by the Football Association before it can be approved."
"Moreover, a player from the Dragon Kingdom has no record of playing in any international A-level competitions."
"Jim, you should also be able to guess what the probability of passing the review is."
Woodward's words made Jim somewhat silent.
Jim also realized this.
Now it is indeed unrealistic to want Long Fei to represent Manchester United.
There are many insurmountable difficulties!
Jim glanced at Long Fei apologetically.
Then he said to Woodward:
"I believe Long Fei is a talented player. At the very least, Manchester United must not lose him."
"Ed, don’t forget what happened with Pogba two years ago."
Jim said coldly.
When he heard Pogba's name,
Woodward was stunned.
In the summer of 2012, Jim had earnestly advised Woodward not to let go of this 19-year-old boy from Gaul.
It should be Immediately signed a formal first-team contract with him.
But Woodward didn't care.
As a result, Pogba joined Serie A Juventus as a free agent.
In the second year, he won the Europa Golden Boy Award.
Now three years have passed.
Pogba Pogba has grown into a midfield star who is famous all over Europe.
Last season, he formed a top midfield combination with Pirlo and Vidal.
He led Juventus to the Champions League final!
Pogba's worth in the transfer market.
It has soared to 80 million euros!
Because of this incident, the club was almost scolded by the fans!
Jim said:"I don't want Long Fei to become the next Pogba!"
"Because I know that he will definitely be better than Pogba in the future!"
Jim has a scouting career of more than 20 years. He has been in contact with countless super new stars.
He has never seen any young players.
With Long Fei's top long pass accuracy.
Even the 19-year-old Pogba was very good..
But compared to Long Fei, the long passing skills of the two are completely incomparable!
What's more, Long Fei is only 18 years old, younger than Pogba back then.
Jim also has reason to believe that
Long Fei's future will be even more limitless.!
Jim spoke highly of Long Fei.
Once again, Woodward looked at Long Fei a few more times.
Then, Woodward nodded.
"Okay, Jim, I trust your vision"
"I agree to sign with Long Fei!"
"In the form of exemption from trial training!"
Woodward's words excited Jim greatly.
"Ed! You made a wise decision!"
"You have to remember this day"
"Every day in the future, you will thank yourself for the decision you made today!
Woodward smiled.
He shook hands with Long Fei and said,"Welcome young man!" Welcome to Manchester United!"
Woodward signed Long Fei without trial training.
The first is to fully trust the vision of gold medal scout Jim.
The second is to shorten the time of signing Long Fei.
After all, Long Fei has just landed in England.
His player status declaration and registration.
There are many tedious processes.
If you start trial training again, it will be very time-consuming.
After all, the transfer window will close in just a few days!
