Football: Rebirth 04, I Create a Black Shop in Football

The news of the match was a surprise.

On Saturday night, the routine pre-match press conference was held.

Li Shiguang did not attend, and he was replaced by Allen, the chief assistant and assistant coach of Leeds United.

That's right, after Li Shiguang became the head coach, he made Allen, who holds a junior coaching certificate, his assistant coach.

As soon as Allen sat down on the podium, the media pointed the finger at him, and the first question was quite sharp.

A reporter from The Times asked first: "Mr. Allen, why didn't Mr. Li come to the press conference tonight? Was it affected by the report in The Sun at noon?"

Allen hasn't answered yet.

I saw the reporter from The Sun roll his eyes and poke the reporter who just asked the question with his finger: "Can you speak? What do you mean by being influenced by us?"

The first question is what everyone is most concerned about now, so the previously restless scene has become quiet, and everyone is staring at Allen eagerly to see how he will respond.

As a chief assistant who has been fighting wits and courage with media reporters for a long time, Allen will not be stage-frightened.

He moved the microphone to his side, coughed, and said: "Of course not, after all, tomorrow's game will basically determine who will be the final winner of this season's Championship League. As the head coach, Mr. Li is very busy now, and he is also making final preparations for tomorrow's game. This is the real reason why he did not attend this press conference."

Obviously, the reporters did not believe Allen's very official reply.

As soon as he finished speaking, a reporter raised his hand eagerly, indicating that he had more questions.

But Allen ignored these reporters and continued to speak: "As for the report in the Sun today that the reporter friend just mentioned, I can only say that this is completely nonsense. After all, it is the Sun, and everyone who understands will understand!"

After speaking, he nodded to the reporter of the Sun with a smile in his eyes.

Seeing Allen's implication, the reporter of the Sun could not sit still and stood up and asked directly: "But, Mr. Allen, as far as I know, Leeds United has indeed received many offers from teams during this period, and it seems that the targets of purchase are the absolute main players in the team! This is different from what you just said.

Hearing him ask this, the other reporters at the scene turned their eyes to Allen again. This question is what everyone really cares about!

Because everyone knows that Leeds United is still burdened with huge debts.

So after the season ends, if Li Shiguang has no intention of selling his shares, then selling the main players who performed well this season to repay the debt is the only option.

It's just that the season is not over yet, and Ming Today is the championship battle, and now the news that the main players will leave the team will undoubtedly have a great impact on the atmosphere of Leeds United.

Moreover, Li Shiguang, who has not missed a pre-match press conference in the past few months, "coincidentally" did not come today because he had to prepare for tomorrow's game, which is very intriguing.

Allen also understands that this press conference cannot avoid this issue, so his expression became a little serious, and then he replied: "Mr. Reporter, regarding your question and your newspaper's report, I can only respond to one point, that is, we did receive an offer for the players in the team, but it is only an offer. Before the end of the season, we have not started substantive negotiations with any club! So what your newspaper said about the main players leaving in the summer window is indeed nonsense! "

After that, Allen did not explain any more and stood up and left the scene.

Hearing Allen's response, the reporters showed wonderful expressions on their faces and began to think about the front-page headlines tomorrow morning. For example, articles like "Leeds United received many offers from giants to buy Adebayor" and "Young Guards' road to revival encountered difficulties" are expected to appear in major newspapers tomorrow!

And Allen, who had just returned to the hotel, was called to his room by Li Shiguang, who was making final preparations for the game.

Seeing Allen come in, Li Shiguang put down the red wine glass in his hand and motioned Allen to sit down first.

Alan was not polite. He sat down and poured himself a glass of red wine, and then said: "Boss, according to your instructions, I have revealed at the press conference that we have received many offers.

"

Hearing what Allen said, Li Shiguang nodded with a satisfied smile. He didn't answer, but habitually touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

That's right!

All Allen's remarks at the press conference just now were all instructed by Li Shiguang!

Even the news published in The Sun at noon was spread by Li Shiguang.

The purpose is self-evident, just to make Bates anxious.

Yesterday, after knowing that Bates only had 9 million euros in his hand and had to force an offer to buy Tevez.

Li Shiguang finally supplemented and perfected the plan in his mind.

He contacted Ferguson as soon as possible, and after the After some discussion, he offered to reduce the price by 3 million euros and sell Tevez to Manchester United for 22 million euros.

But he also put forward two conditions of his own.

First, Li Shiguang asked Ferguson to make a high-profile offer to Leeds United after the summer window opened, and spread the word to the media that Manchester United was determined to take Tevez. If Li Shiguang did not sell, Manchester United would complete the acquisition by triggering the penalty for Tevez's contract.

Second, Li Shiguang asked Ferguson not to disclose Tevez's transfer to Manchester United before Leeds United.

At first, Ferguson received Li Shiguang's call and thought that this young man was People want to raise the transfer fee of Tevez.

Unexpectedly, after a brief chat, Li Shiguang did not mention the price increase at all, but took the initiative to say that he would reduce the price by 3 million euros and sell Tevez to Manchester United.

Ferguson has been involved in football for a lifetime, and this is the first time he has encountered someone who took the initiative to reduce the price to sell a player to him.

But just before the call was hung up, Li Shiguang mentioned that West Bromwich Albion also made an offer to Leeds United, and the target of the purchase was also Tevez.

Ferguson understood it instantly.

Although Howard did not play in the stadium where Manchester United won 3:0 against West Bromwich Albion in the second half of the season, his poor performance after going to West Bromwich Albion The news would occasionally reach Ferguson's ears.

He secretly laughed at Bates's look in his heart, spending so much money to buy Howard.

As the season was coming to an end, Ferguson was aware that West Bromwich Albion had been bouncing around in the relegation zone, so Bates was now under tremendous pressure, and Ferguson was also well aware of this.

So Li Shiguang's seemingly unintentional mention of this sentence immediately made the shrewd Ferguson smell a bit of conspiracy, combined with Li Shiguang's initiative to reduce the price and the two requirements he raised on the phone before.

Ferguson already had a feeling in his heart.

Bates might be in trouble this time!
