The new season is coming, and the new season is coming.

Watching Leeds United officially announce new players every day, Bates can be said to be gnashing his teeth in hatred but helpless during this period.

Bates knows the players Deisler and Berbatov. He thinks that Li Shiguang will never be able to get these two players without a small 20 million euros, plus so many other young players.

Although Leeds United has not yet announced the specific transfer expenditures in the summer window, Bates can probably guess that Li Shiguang should have spent about 40 to 50 million euros this time.

Think about Leeds United's miserable lineup and the huge amount of money owed to the bank before the start of the English Championship last year. Who knew that in just one year, he and Li Shiguang would directly reverse the polarity, and he became the one who borrowed money from the bank and sold players to make a living.

However, during this period, there are fewer and fewer rumors about Tevez's transfer. Basically, only Manchester United occasionally broke out rumors about Tevez, but there has been no new progress, which is good news for Bates.

Because he is worried that Leeds United and Manchester United will reach an agreement.

So during this period, basically every time West Bromwich Albion sells a player, Bates will make an offer to Leeds United, and each time it will increase by one or two million euros.

In his imagination, with Li Shiguang's greedy character, if he had been involved in the competition for Tevez, he would definitely wait until the highest price to sell Tevez.

A few days ago, West Bromwich Albion completed the cleaning of the last player, and the funds were also received today. Now Bates has more than 30 million euros in funds available.

The transfer period will end in more than half a month, and he has been dragging Leeds United for almost a month. While Manchester United may still be struggling with Li Shiguang, Bates could not wait to send a new offer to Leeds United this morning, and raised the price to 26 million euros, wanting to see Li Shiguang's reaction. If Leeds United rejects him again this time, in order to avoid more trouble, he will directly trigger Tevez's liquidated damages and take him away. The summer window has been open for more than a month, and now the players with some strength in the transfer market have basically been snapped up. It's time for him to make a move. After hearing Bates' offer again, Li Shiguang asked Allen to confirm whether all the players listed for sale in West Bromwich Albion have been sold. If he has, then he can prepare to give him a surprise! As soon as he returned to the office, Allen called. As soon as Li Shiguang answered the call, he heard Allen's excited voice coming from the other end of the phone: "Boss, confirmed! West Bromwich Albion has completed the cleanup, Bates should be ready to start, and this morning's offer should be his last test."

Hearing Allen's report, Li Shiguang sneered and said lightly: "No need to reply to Bates's offer today. Tomorrow morning, the official website will update the news of Tevez's transfer to Manchester United."

After hanging up Allen's phone, Li Shiguang turned around and called Ferguson, and agreed to update the news of Tevez's transfer on the official website at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.

After arranging everything.

Li Shiguang felt a little relieved.

Since his rebirth and crossing, Bates's covetous eyes on Leeds United have been in Li Shiguang's heart for a long time.

Although he was tricked once half a year ago with the help of the system, that time was not a serious injury, but Li Shiguang knew from a young age that the root of the problem must be eradicated, especially when facing a robber like Bates who took advantage of the situation.

This time he was hooked for several months, and now it was finally time to close the net.

Li Shiguang was already imagining how angry Bates would be when he saw this news tomorrow.

The most important thing is that there are still about 20 days before the transfer period ends, and there are no strong strikers in the transfer market now.

Even if Bates still has tens of millions of funds to use, he has already cleaned up most of the main players and replaced them with young players promoted from the youth team. How can he attract those big-name stars to join?

The Premier League will resume next month, and Li Shiguang does not believe that Blackwell can lead this group of rookies who have never played in the Championship to the Premier League with his poor defensive counterattack tactics to achieve good results.

Maybe Bates and Blackwell will both leave without waiting for the winter window to open.

We'll see what Bates can do to repay his debts.

Bank loan!

Before 10 o'clock the next day, Bates came to the club.

The offer he made yesterday, Leeds United did not respond until the end of the night, which made Bates feel a little uneasy.

The old man was old and had something on his mind, so he didn't sleep well last night.

I got up early today, and after breakfast at home, I rushed to the club to see if Leeds United responded.

But Bates just walked into the office and didn't have time to sit down when there was a knock on the door.

Before he could speak, he saw that the door had been pushed open, and then Blackwell walked in angrily.

Bates looked at his watch, then at Blackwell's expression, and asked with a puzzled look: "Kevin, what's wrong? Why did you come so early today? Isn't there still a while before training?"

Hearing Bates's question, Blackwell sat down opposite Bates and said unhappily: "Boss, I'm really fed up with those idiots in the youth team. They have been practicing a zone defense for almost a week, and they were still out of position in yesterday's training! Moreover, my tactics emphasize quick counterattacks! No one can run, or the ball is passed, and the forward can't even stop the ball. A ball stops 5 meters away!"

Bates opened his mouth slightly, wanting to comfort Blackwell, who was already red with anger, but he didn't know where to start.

After all, it was his decision to promote the youth team players to the first team. Last year, Bates brought Blackwell to West Bromwich Albion, and he originally wanted to take Li Shiguang away from the bottom of the pot, not only to take away the best player in your team, but also to take away your head coach!

In the end, although Howard failed, at least Blackwell relied on his decent defensive counterattack to help West Bromwich Albion avoid relegation.

After a while, seeing that Blackwell's mood had eased a little, Bates comforted him: "There is no way, Kevin, you know, the team's current situation is not optimistic. In terms of defense, there are still more than 20 days. You can only work hard and try to train these young people. As for the striker, don't worry, I came so early today to prepare to make another offer to Leeds United, trigger Tevez's liquidated damages, and bring him to West Bromwich Albion. He also played under you last season. I believe that after he comes, he can be integrated into your tactical system."

Seeing that his boss said so, Blackwell was embarrassed to keep complaining, so he nodded and stood up to leave.

But just as he stood up, the door of the office behind him was pushed open again.

Bates' assistant rushed in quickly, with an anxious look on his face, and shouted to the two of them: "Boss, it's bad, Leeds United's official website has been updated!"
