Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son

The next opponent of Manchester City is Norwich.

As expected, Yang Luo excluded Ronaldinho from the squad.

At the pre-match press conference, a reporter asked Tuchel this question: "Why did you choose to exclude Ronaldinho from the squad?"

Tuchel replied in an official manner: "Sorry, no comment."

He didn't want to tell the real reason.

But his attitude made reporters start to imagine.

Some people even wrote in their columns: "Ronaldinho was excluded from the squad for no reason. There must be something unknown. Will Manchester City make a big news?"

Yes, this is written by Comrade David Jones again.

This guy really can't stand seeing Manchester City do any good, as long as there is a little fishy smell, he will come.

Yang Luo is too lazy to complain about him anymore, just wait to invite him to the celebration party after winning the championship in the future.

At that time, he will definitely arrange a special car to pick him up.

There is nothing to say about this game itself. The strength gap between the two teams is quite large. Manchester City, without Ronaldinho, still defeated the opponent 3-1.

And four days after playing Norwich, Manchester City returned to their home court to face Bolton.

In this game, Ronaldinho entered the starting lineup again, which also disappointed a certain reporter.

Ronaldinho, who was forced to rest for one game, learned from his shame and then bravely in this game. He contributed one goal and one assist in the whole game, helping the team to easily beat the opponent 2-0.

However, what disappointed Manchester City was that Chelsea still won consecutive games, and the points gap between the two sides remained at four points.

There is no way, Mourinho's Chelsea is too stable.

After playing Bolton, Manchester City ushered in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Since Manchester City won the first leg away game 3-2, they can advance as long as they don't lose two goals or lose by more than 3-4.

So the whole team is optimistic about this game.

However, three days before the game, a rumor suddenly spread in the transfer market.

It is said that Real Madrid has set its sights on Robben in Manchester City and is preparing to launch an offensive against him.

This made Yang Luo and Bernstein moved. This is obviously Real Madrid's public opinion offensive to shake Manchester City's morale before the game.

This is also a trick that the team often uses, and they don't care about it.

But at this moment, Bernstein received a call from Florentino: "Hello, Mr. Bernstein, I am Florentino."

Bernstein responded: "Hello, Mr. Florentino."

He knew that Florentino must have something to do, so he waited for him to speak.

Sure enough, Florentino said: "Mr. Bernstein, I guess you have also heard the rumors in the transfer market."

Bernstein's heart moved. He didn't expect him to take the initiative to mention this matter.

Florentino smiled and said: "I'm sorry, this news came out at this special time, which affected your preparations."

Bernstein hurriedly said: "It's nothing, we don't care about this kind of false story."

Florentino was silent for a while, then he said: "What if I say that this is not false?"

Bernstein was stunned: "Do you really want to buy Robben?"

Florentino nodded: "Yes, but I didn't keep it secret well, so others heard the news. I originally wanted to wait until the end of the season before buying."

Bernstein suddenly didn't know what to say.

It turned out that this matter was true?

Yang Luo on the side also became interested. He didn't expect Florentino to be serious.

It seems that he was defeated in the last game.

But he really wanted to know what Florentino's offer for Robben was.

So he answered the phone: "Mr. Florentino, this is Yang Luo."

Florentino smiled and said, "Mr. Yang! I didn't expect you to be here. Did you hear what I said just now?"

Yang Luo smiled: "Of course I heard it. Mr. Florentino, are you serious?"

Florentino said seriously: "Of course."

Yang Luo asked: "Then I wonder how much you offer for Robben?"

Florentino was immediately excited when he heard that there was a way: "We are ready to offer 30 million euros."

Yang Luo smiled: "Mr. Florentino, I don't think this price can impress us. Our valuation of him is 80 million euros."

Florentino took a breath

: "Mr. Yang Luo, are you sure you are not kidding me?"

Yang Luo said: "We attach great importance to Robben, and I also think he is really worth so much money."

Florentino said: "This price is a bit too outrageous."

Yang Luo said: "Because he is too important to us this year, I hope you can understand us."

Florentino sighed: "It seems that there is no room for negotiation?"

Yang Luo thought for a while: "If you come to buy next summer, maybe the situation will be different, and our price will be cheaper."

Florentino was a little curious: "Why?"

Yang Luo smiled: "This is our secret!"

Florentino said: "Okay. If we buy next year, how much are you willing to lower the asking price to?"

Yang Luo thought for a while: "70 million euros?"

Florentino: "..."

In the end, they reached a verbal agreement. As long as Manchester City is willing to sell Robben next summer, Real Madrid will have the right of first refusal.

This can be regarded as Yang Luo doing a favor for the old man.

As for why Robben can be sold next summer, it's because he has to make way for Messi...

You are very strong, but your opponent is Gundam...

As time goes by, the second match with Real Madrid is getting closer.

Before the game, Sun Jihai finally recovered from the concussion, which made Manchester City's lineup more relaxed.

And Yang Luo also put him back in the starting lineup.

Manchester City's starting lineup for this game is Cech, Sun Jihai, Stam, Distin, Evra, Makelele, Essien, Ronaldinho, Robben, Ronaldo and Tony.

Real Madrid is Casillas, Raul Bravo, Elguera, Samuel, Carlos, Figo, Gravesen, Beckham, Zidane, Ronaldo and Raul.

It seems that Salgado's difficulty in the last game forced Luxemburg to make adjustments.

When the two teams shook hands before the game, Zidane saw Sun Jihai, who was also in the starting lineup, and couldn't help but smile.

Sun Jihai also smiled.

These two are acquaintances.

Zidane greeted him: "Does your head still hurt?"

Sun Jihai touched his head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Zidane patted his shoulder, and the two passed each other.

In this game, Sun Jihai should face him again...

When they thought of this, they couldn't help but shudder.
