Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 469: Volume Four Storm's Invitation from Ferguson

"No one knows what it means for Anelka's two agent brothers to appear next to Benitez at this time..."

The news was still on the TV, and Dunn stared at the TV.

"Tony?" Tang asked from the side.

"What do you mean? Do you still need to ask..." Tang En mumbled, and turned upstairs, without hearing Tang calling him just now.

Dunn went upstairs and found out Anelka's phone number. Standing at the window dialed his phone.

Of course he knew what it meant.

What's the point of this? The brothers of Anelka's two agents are not honest again... No, maybe they both received Anelka's instructions this time.

In the Champions League final, Admiral Anelka replaced... At that time, Dunn was full of the game itself and didn't think too much. After the game ended, he thought about it calmly, thinking that his substitution might make Anelka feel uncomfortable, but due to the delay of various things, he did not find the French to explain the meaning of the substitution in person.

Unexpectedly... Unexpectedly, Anelka's movements are quite fast. This allows the brothers to contact other clubs.

There was an alert tone that no one answered.

Dunn slammed the phone onto the bed.

He can finally understand how Wenger felt when calling Anelka.

Give me this hand again?

Tang looked strangely at Tang En walking down the stairs.

"He didn't answer your call?" he asked.

Dunn nodded, walked to the sofa, and sat down.

"Is he leaving?"

"Can I still make him change his mind?"

"I suggest not to let him go, we lack a fast forward."

"We can go to the transfer market to find..."

"From a tactical point of view, he is most suitable for the current Forest team."

Dunn listened to Tang saying this, he shook his head helplessly: "I admit it is like this, a season of running-in is very pleasant... Wait." He suddenly sat up straight. "I won't let him go... Want to go? It's not that easy. But we can't just ignore it. I think our striker should continue to strengthen."

Hearing Dun En said this, Tang was a little surprised. "Do you want to buy a striker?"

"Exactly." Dunn nodded vigorously.

※※※

The phone call happened as scheduled, this point has not changed at all, no matter the club or people involved are exactly the same.

Juventus has been deprived of the league title and relegated to the second division is almost a sure thing. Now everyone’s focus is on the fate of another giant team. Whether AC Milan will be relegated or not, how many penalty points...

Real Madrid is frantically chasing AC Milan's core midfielder Kaka, as long as AC Milan is finally sentenced to relegation, then Kaka is almost certain to leave this team.

A slight difference from the "phone gate" incident that Dunn knew about was the people who ran away after the Juventus supermarket opened...

Capello took his three disciples to Real Madrid to take office.

Yes, there are three.

The captain of the Italian national team, the World Cup's Golden Globe winner central defender Cannavaro, Brazilian midfielder Emerson, and...the most important person, the French striker Trezeguet whom Capello has always valued.

Trezeguet went to Real Madrid, he is Capello's best center forward.

In this way, the future of another person who should have joined Real Madrid becomes unpredictable...

"The Bundesliga team Bayern Munich formally asked Manchester United for the price of Van Nistelrooy. The relationship between the Dutch striker and Ferguson had been completely broken before the World Cup, and he did not get Van Basten's trust in the World Cup. Look. The Dutch need to change places to start again."

Dunn turned off the satellite TV in Evan Daugherty's office and played with the remote control in his hand.

"Is this your goal, Tony?" Dogatti asked.

Dunn nodded: "Yes. We need a player with absolute dominance in the penalty zone. I can't think of anyone more suitable than him."

Allen, who sat opposite, also nodded slightly: "From a business perspective, if Van Nistelrooy can come, it can greatly stimulate our jersey sales. He is a real world-class star." The two people's opinions were exactly the same at a time.

Hearing what the two said, Evan Daugherty was silent for a while, then he raised his head to look at Dunn: "For such a world-class star, you should know what kind of treatment he will ask for?"

"Of course, we may need to offer a salary higher than the team's current maximum salary to attract him. But we have an advantage to take advantage of." Dunn raised his index finger.

"Oh?" Evan Daugherty and Alan Adams were very interested in what Dunn called "an advantage".

"Van Nistelrooy soon turned 30. Last season he had a bad time at Manchester United and he was not reused in the World Cup. Almost everyone believed that his career was at the end of his career. It is time to consider things like pensions. It is no longer possible for him to reproduce the glory of the "king of the small restricted zone". His career is beginning to decline... In this case, no one will give him a better match. Manchester United also has a higher salary, even if it is our rival Bayern Munich. So if he can come, it must be the highest salary in the team, but I think it can be within the range of the club's ability."

After listening to Dunn’s analysis, Evan Daugherty turned his attention to Allen, and he wanted to listen to the opinions of the marketing manager and financial adviser.

Allen pondered for a while, and said: "The results of the Champions Cup runner-up have allowed us to allocate a lot of TV broadcast fees, plus the winning bonus after each game... The club has a lot of funds in the transfer market this summer. Can be transferred by Tony."

Hearing this answer, the corners of Dunn's mouth rose, which he hoped to hear.

"And, in terms of Van Nistelrooy's influence and predictable returns, it is worth the money to invest in it. I agree with this transfer plan."

Allen agreed, and Evan would not have any objections: "In this case, Tony, please do what you said. We can now contact Manchester United."

"Then I'm busy." Dunn stood up, planning to leave.

Evan stopped him: "Tony, have you heard about Anelka?"

Dunn looked back at Ellen sitting on the sofa, then nodded: "I heard."

"Well, what can you do?"

"I called and no one answered." Dunn shook his head, "The players are all on vacation, and I can't contact him. I can only talk about it after re-training."

Evan thought for a while and waved his hand: "I see. Go ahead."

Dunn turned to leave.

Manchester, Carrington, Manchester United training base.

"What?" The old handsome Ferguson looked at the fax in his hand, feeling a little weird. "Nottingham Forest wants to buy the Dutch? Is there something wrong with Tony Dunn's brain?"

His assistant Queiroz sat across from him and shrugged.

"He doesn't know what Manchester United's tradition is? We are not idiots like Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and will give players to competitors."

What Ferguson said is all right. Manchester United rarely sells their players to major rivals in the league in the transfer market. To give a simple example, there has been no player trade between them and Liverpool for forty-two years. Both teams are the big players in English football.

"Have you now confirmed that Nottingham Forest is our main competitor, Sir?"

"What do you mean?" Ferguson looked at Queiroz and asked. "Who held us down last season?"

Queiroz has a different opinion: "Of course, they ranked higher than us last season... But, Jazz. I don't think the Forest team has the strength to threaten us for a long time. Their performance in these two seasons is more like a nouveau riche. It’s just better luck. Looking at all their efforts last season and finally collapsed, it’s obvious-they don’t have any real strength at all. Our main competitors are Arsenal and Chelsea."

After listening to his assistant's analysis, Ferguson stared at him for a while, and then said, "Do you know why you didn't succeed after going to Real Madrid, Queiroz?"

"what?"

"Needless to say, reject the offer from Nottingham Forest."

Ferguson waved his hand to finalize the matter.

※※※

"Damn it!" Dunn cursed. He just received a response from the Manchester United club who rejected the £10 million offer from the Forest team to Van Nistelrooy. "They rejected us!"

"Of course." Chris Lak said, sitting on the sofa in the office with his legs up. "Everyone knows what Ferguson is. He will never sell his player to a major competitor, even if that player has to go."

Tang, the new member of the coaching staff, nodded and agreed.

Dunn paced back and forth in the office anxiously. "Is there no way?"

"What else can I do? I didn't approve of you buying Van Nistelrooy from the beginning, Tony." Chris Lak shrugged and said, "Manchester United and Liverpool have not played a player for 42 years. It's a deal."

"We are not Liverpool." Dunn stopped. "Liverpool and Manchester United are the most influential teams in England. It is normal for them to hate each other and prevent each other, because everyone wants to be the hegemon of England. What about us? It's just a small character..." He held out his little finger.

After another round, he returned to his desk and said to the two of them: "Help me contact Van Nistelrooy’s agent. I need to talk to him and understand what the Dutch think. Then... I have to talk to Meet Ferguson."

Hearing him say this, Don and Chris Lak almost got up from their seats. They stared at Dun En with wide eyes.

"Are you crazy, Tony?" Chris Lak cried out.

"Don't make a fuss." Dunn glared at him, "I haven't met him, nor haven't had any personal relationships. What about meeting friends? I just invite him to drink."

"I just think it is impossible for Ferguson to accept your invitation..."

"Don't think of him like the strange earl in the ghost castle. If Wenger invites him to drink, he may not accept it. Others will be fine. Van Nistelrooy’s agent will help me contact, Ferguson. ……I will do it myself."

After the matter was so settled, Dunn called Pierce Bruce and agreed to accept a small interview with him. Speaking of the recent affairs of Anelka, Dunn claimed that he did not know. As for Anelka's two brothers and Benitez in the same restaurant, it may be just a coincidence. If that Spanish restaurant is really delicious and good craftsmanship, then it's normal to attract others to it, and it's understandable to meet Benitez by chance.

In short, he did not criticize Anelka for secretly contacting Liverpool, but insisted that he trusted his players.

"...We all know Anelka's past, but now he has a good time in Nottingham Forest. He has a good relationship with his teammates. We also made it to the Champions League final together. I don't think he can have any problems with us. You can work together for a long time."

Dunn just announced his trust in Anelka, and Liverpool coach Benitez also came out to refute the rumors, saying that he had never bypassed Nottingham Forest Club and contacted the player agent in private. They appeared in that restaurant at the same time, which was what Dunn called a "coincidence." He also said that Liverpool will not be interested in Anelka at the moment. He will not let the team introduce Anelka.

Obviously, with the Chelsea club's private contact with Ashley Cole and the lesson learned by Arsenal to make FIFA, Benitez was a lot more cautious.

This kind of speech is not uncommon in football, and the public does not seem to care about its credibility. They only value results. Just as the president of Real Madrid, Florentino, insisted that Real Madrid would not be interested in Beckham. The result?

No one will believe the words "we don't sell" or "we don't buy" now, and these words are not for the general public and fans.

Finding Van Nistelrooy’s agent and inviting Ferguson did not go on at the same time. Dunn first contacted Gannister Roy’s agent and asked him about his intention to leave Manchester United and come to the Forest. The broker said this is a suggestion worthy of serious consideration.

After all, the Forest team just won the Champions League runner-up, and their reputation and influence are not the same as they were a season ago.

But the agent did not reply to Dunn right away, but told him that Van Nistelrooy was on vacation now, it is inconvenient to bother him. After he came back, he would talk to him in detail and inform Dunn of the result.

Dunn expressed his understanding and respect for this decision.

Although he did not get a definite answer, the other party finally did not directly refuse, there is still room for discussion.

After getting the agent's side, Dunn called Ferguson.

Ferguson was a little surprised at receiving Dunn's call, but after listening to Dunn's "excuse" he laughed instead.

"You have such a leisurely feeling, Mr. Dunn."

"We are enemies on the football field, can we still be friends under the football field?" Dunn replied.

"Of course, I'm not some narrow-minded person." Ferguson sarcastically satirized Wenger.

For the grudge between the two old coaches, Dunn had no intention of getting involved.

"But I don't like beer or whiskey."

"Of course, you like red wine." Dunn made a lot of effort to understand Ferguson, and he could only make the subsequent topics go smoother if he wanted to.

"So, Mr. Dunn, do you have any good red wine?"

When Ferguson asked this suddenly, Dunn was caught off guard. He intends to make preparations after confirming the matter with Ferguson, otherwise, if he spends money to buy something, and finally Ferguson refuses the invitation, he really spent the money in vain.

Hearing the hesitation on the phone, Ferguson laughed triumphantly: "Mr. Dunn. I'm going to watch a horse race the day after tomorrow. Why don't you come with me?"

Dunn was stunned: "Didn't you say that I would please?"

"Of course it's you, I invite you to see Marseille, you will pay for everything."

"This idea is good..." (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, author support, and genuine reading!)
