Demon Golden Boots

Chapter 655 You Are Big Names
Mr. Morris took Liu Yun to visit his "Manchester United Memorial Room".

There are all kinds of Manchester United memorabilia in the room.There are Manchester United jerseys from the old League One period in the 80s, as well as the latest Manchester United jerseys from last season.

"This is Cantona's autograph for me. This is a photo of Beckham and me. Oh, this is amazing. This is Sir Alex Ferguson's leftover half of a cigar after winning the Champions League final in 99. It's me Got it through a charity auction."

Morris enthusiastically introduced his various collections.

Liu Yun said approvingly: "It is precisely because of the decades-long support of loyal fans like you that Manchester United can come to where it is today."

After visiting for more than an hour, it was time for dinner.

Morris led Liu Yun to the restaurant.

During the dinner, Morris said bluntly: "To be honest, old lieutenant. I never expected you to pay attention to my quotation. As far as I know, my quotation is the lowest among all buyers."

Liu Yun said: "In a sense, I am choosing a boss for Manchester United now. I can't just look at the offer. There are lessons from Arsenal, and I can't repeat the same mistakes. You are a person who really loves Manchester United. A successful businessman. I believe that you will be able to keep the glory of Manchester United's giants going."

Morris asked: "With all due respect. Why don't you transfer the shares to your son-in-law Qu or wife Isabella?"

Liu Yun smiled: "It's not that I haven't thought about it. My son-in-law loves Manchester United, there is no doubt about it. But he is just a young man in his 20s. He is passionate and impulsive. Apart from playing football, he doesn't know anything at all. It is true that Woodward, the chairman, helps him manage the club. But when he really needs to make a choice for Manchester United, I am afraid that he will make the wrong choice because of his own impulse and bury the history of this 140-year-old club. Glory."

Morris asked: "Where is your wife? As far as I know, she is a successful philanthropist. She has several very successful charity projects in her hands. She should be a good manager."

Liu Yun shook his head: "I have consulted my lawyer. The FA is not a fool. If I transfer the shares to my immediate family members, I will definitely be subject to endless investigations and countless follow-up troubles."

Morris shrugged: "Okay. Are you sure you will consider my offer?"

Liu Yun said: "The quotation is not a problem. Now I would like to ask you, if you become a major shareholder of Manchester United, what do you think about the future development of Manchester United?"

Morris said: "If I became a major shareholder, I would suggest to the board of directors to invest more money in youth training. Young people are the future of Manchester United. In 1999, I witnessed Sir Alex Ferguson leading a group of young people to win the treble. In terms of youth training, Arsenal did a very good job in the first two years. They even got a nickname "Child Labor Maniac" in the Premier League. But their American bosses regard the team as a cash machine. All young people Famous stars are almost sold out by him. He is profiting by selling Arsenal's future! I will never do something as stupid as him!"

Morris added: "While increasing investment in youth training, I will find ways to continue to develop the international market. Sell Manchester United's jerseys to every corner of the world."

Morris and Liu Yun had a good chat.

Liu Yun finally made a request to Morris: If he transfers the stock to Morris, please Morris not to fire Woodward and let Woodward continue to serve as the chairman of the club.

Morris readily agreed.

A few days later, several major newspapers in England published the news of Manchester United's change of ownership:
"Manchester United's new owner - Morris. The old lieutenant has reached an equity transfer agreement with Morris."

"The old lieutenant accepted the lowest offer - just because the offeror was a diehard Manchester United fan. It would cost him £3.8m."

"Huaguo businessman Qin Gude sent a letter to the US Securities Regulatory Commission, questioning the legality of the old lieutenant's equity transfer - the equity transfer below half the market price must have an insider."

"Qin Goode is obviously looking at this equity transfer with the eyes of a businessman. He will not understand that the loss of 3.8 million pounds is nothing compared to the old lieutenant's love for Manchester United."

"At the transfer signing ceremony, the old lieutenant said to his successor Morris: Please let the glory of Manchester United continue."

------

The matter of equity transfer is finally over.Liu Yun's energy was once again put on Coventry's side.

The introduction work of the transfer period begins.Coventry's transfer fee budget this year can be described as a shotgun change.

Last year, they only had a transfer fee of just over 1000 million pounds.But this year, the budget figure has reached 9000 million pounds.

The outstanding performance last season won several huge sponsorship contracts for Coventry.Coupled with the dividends of the Premier League broadcast fees, Coventry can be said to have rice in the pot today, and there is no panic.

However, a rumor also began to circulate within the Coventry team.

The instigator of this rumor is the unreliable "Sun": Coventry now has a large transfer fee budget.In the new season, Ada and the old lieutenant will never rely on a group of children to fight the world.They will hide a few inexperienced young players and buy a few established European big players to replace them.

The news made Coventry's army unstable.

On this day, Liu Yun and Ada were watching the game videos of several South American players.Zhao Kaixuan and Li Fanghua walked into the office.

"Boss, boss. We have something to ask you."

Zhao Kaixuan and Li Fanghua hesitated.

Liu Yun asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Fanghua said: "We would like to ask—is the report of the "Sun" true? In the new season, the team will put me, Kaixuan, and Papa on the bench?"

Liu Yun asked strangely: "Can you believe the words of The Sun? It is simply a pheasant newspaper!"

Zhao Kaixuan said: "The "Sun" is right. We are all afraid that in the new season, the club will introduce some big-name players who have been famous for many years to replace us."

Liu Yun asked again: "Do other players see it that way?"

Li Fanghua nodded: "Ah, what the "Sun" said seems to make sense. Except for the best rookie of the year, Xiaobai, Brother Manla, and the boss, your main position will be unshakable, and everyone else—— may be replaced by new big names."

Liu Yun is well aware of the truth that military spirit is equal to combat power.

He and head coach Edda held an emergency team meeting.

Liu Yun said decisively to the players: "The media said that we will buy some big-name players to replace your main players. Do you believe this? Listen, kids, what big-name players are not big-name players—you guys, Already a big-name player in the Premier League! During the transfer period this year, the club does have plans to recruit. Those who can be bought will become your substitutes!"

The head coach Ada echoed: "The old lieutenant is right, boys, you are the big names! You are the kind with a bright future!"
