Chapter 126 Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage (for collection)

The English media is so developed, they are all concerned about where George's next family will be.They could easily find out who George had seen.Or contact with some club.

In addition to the two clubs that are interested in George, Liverpool and Newcastle have never thought about blocking the news or playing tricks such as repairing the plank road and secretly hiding the warehouse.Therefore, many Liverpool and Newcastle staff know that the club is interested in George.

Both Liverpool and Newcastle actually have a certain degree of self-confidence. In their view, their two clubs found George completely to flatter him.As long as he shows that kind of meaning a little bit, George will happily come to sign the contract.

They never thought that George would refuse, or that the negotiation would break down.Therefore, they didn't even think about concealing others and proceeding secretly.

Therefore, many media are reporting that George is in contact with Liverpool and Newcastle, and he is likely to enter Liverpool or Newcastle next season.For any one of them, it is a great development for George to be able to coach.

Needless to say, Liverpool, the top giants in the UK, Newcastle's performance in the past two years is also quite impressive.Although it has been suppressed by Manchester United, it is still the current strong team in the Premier League.Newcastle also currently has one of England's biggest superstars, that is Alan Shearer who transferred from Blackburn to Newcastle.

Now Shearer is the best striker in the Premier League and a superstar with a very strong appeal in England.

Therefore, George, who has only coached in League Two and League One, as long as he can coach these two clubs, it will be a big development.Many media have followed up, wanting to see how George Levy, England's youngest professional club head coach, will play.

But the news is changing fast.Soon the news of the collapse of George's talks with Liverpool and Newcastle also appeared in the newspapers.Of course, some newspapers are also saying that George has negotiated terms with Liverpool, or that he has negotiated terms with Newcastle.

Some media are even analyzing the prospects of George coaching Liverpool and Newcastle, and many so-called senior football commentators have come out to comment.

Because this year is the World Cup year, all the media attention is on the upcoming World Cup in France.All other sports news has to make way for the World Cup, especially news about clubs, which rarely appear in today's newspapers.

But there is one person except for the news, and that is the young coach George Levy who has gained fame because of winning the League Cup and the FA Cup.His whereabouts have attracted a lot of media attention, and almost every day newspapers will leave a certain section dedicated to reporting on George's whereabouts.

What they don't know is that George is also a little anxious now.I always thought that if I led a League One team and won the League Cup and the FA Cup, there should be many clubs interested in me.And there should be great sincerity to invite yourself.

When the ancient Chinese monarchs were looking for virtuous ministers, they always used the most sincere attitude and lowered their attitude to seek virtuous ministers.And those virtuous ministers had a lot of conditions, and the monarch agreed to them all.

This is just imagination, after the negotiations between Liverpool and Newcastle, George understood.Although I am a bit famous now, in the eyes of these big clubs, I am just a junior who has just become famous.Those big clubs choose their head coaches, and there are a lot of famous coaches to choose from.

This reality made George a little depressed, and at first he thought he was so amazing.But it turned out that I was nothing more than that. Although those big clubs wanted me to coach, they were just one of countless candidates.

Now George still has some invitations in his pocket, but they are all from the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, and there are even invitations from League One teams.They may be a slightly bigger club than Burnley, but that's about it.Going back to negotiate with Liverpool and Newcastle, George's self-esteem did not allow it.It seems that we can only find these mid-lower teams, who should be contacted first.

Just when George was a little hesitant, the phone in his pocket rang.

"George, this is Jack Walker." A familiar voice sounded on the other end of the phone.Although Burnley and Blackburn are absolute enemies, George and Jack Walker have a good personal relationship.

The two have remained relatively friendly since George first met Jack Walker.For Jack Walker, George respected him very much.For an old man like Jack Walker who has dedicated himself to the club, regardless of his position, George will respect him.

And Jack Walker valued George very much. When George was still in the League Two, Jack Walker invited George to coach Blackburn.This kind of trust is almost blind, but it moved George a lot.There are only two people in this world who trust George so much, one is George's best partner Carl Pater, and the other is Jack Walker on the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Walker, hello."

"George, I'm in London now. Shall we meet?" Jack Walker spoke very softly, which was a little different from the Jack Walker George knew.The Jack Walker that George knew was very bold, and his voice was not small.

"Okay, you tell me the address, and I'll go find you."

George understands why Jack Walker wants to see him, and now George is negotiating his next job, and the whole English football world knows it.Not to mention Jack Walker, George believed that Jack Walker must have found himself for this matter.

If it was someone else, George would have rejected it directly on the phone. Although he left Burnley, he definitely had no idea of ​​​​against Burnley.Especially Blackburn, Burnley and Blackburn are actually very close.Also in Lancashire, Turfmore Stadium and Ewood Park are very close.Although so close, the two families are enemies who never get in touch with each other.

Therefore, when George was considering his next home, he never thought about Blackburn at all.Because once George really coaches Blackburn, he will definitely become Burnley's public enemy.George, who grew up in Burnley, was unwilling to become a public enemy of Burnley. George couldn't do this kind of thing.

It's just that because of my personal friendship with Jack Walker, I couldn't refuse directly on the phone.Although George was not a gentleman, he couldn't do such a rude thing.

But it happened to be a good talk with Jack Walker this time, which completely cut off his thoughts.

…………

"Mr. Walker, long time no see." Although I haven't seen him for a few months, I found that Jack Walker is much older.It seems that the body is much weaker, and it is not as full of energy as it has been seen before.

George knew that Jack Walker had little more than three years to live.It seems that from now on the body is not very good.

"Mr. Williams, hello."

John Williams is like a follower. Every time he meets Jack Walker, he can basically see John Williams.

After seeing Jack Walker, George sat directly in front of him without any courtesy.Because I have met Jack Walker several times, and the relationship has always been very good.So not too polite.

"George, how is the job search going?" In fact, Jack Walker began to pay attention to George's itinerary as soon as George left Burnley.Jack Walker hopes to be the first to contact George, but the current George is no longer the George of last year or the year before.

Two years ago, Blackburn invited George, which was quite important to George.At that time, Blackburn was the Premier League champion team. Although the results were not good in the second year, the champion team was still there.And George is just a coach who led the League Two to League One.

When I found George last year, George was not much different from two years ago.Blackburn's performance has dropped rapidly, but it is still a Premier League team.

By this year, George's reputation has greatly increased, not only leading Burnley to the Premier League, but also winning the League Cup and the FA Cup successively.Last season, Blackburn was able to relegation, staying in the Premier League with a two-point advantage.

Among the clubs where George is now found, there are not only mid- and lower-level teams in the Premier League, but also strong Premier League teams like Newcastle and English giants like Liverpool.Blackburn doesn't rank at all.

So Jack Walker has been enduring, but the news of Jack Walker is very fast.He soon learned that George's negotiations with Liverpool and Newcastle had collapsed.That's why I found George again.

When it came to work, George shook his head.

"George, I still say the same thing. Would you like to coach at Blackburn?"
