Godfather Of Champions

Juventus suddenly entered the fight for Anelka, and Dunn did not expect it. He remembered that there was no news about Juventus’s interest in Anelka before, and Anelka’s two broker brothers. It seems that there is no contact with Juventus.

Of course, if Juventus really intends to spend so much money to buy Anelka, Dunn would be happy to accept it. On the one hand, it is higher than the price of buying Anelka by yourself. On the other hand, this is Juventus. There is always no excuse for Anelka not to go, right?

He did not hesitate to approve the transfer transaction and let Juventus go and discuss the details of the personal contract with Anelka's agent.

As for another transfer request...

Dunn wondered why Manchester City would come here. Do they think they have a chance to take advantage of the three people on the right now? It’s not surprising that he believes in taking over Manchester City Dunn, because in this circle, I hear all kinds of rumors every day. It’s not a day or two for Thais to be interested in the Premier League. The Premier League is in Southeast Asia. The impact is huge, and the acquisition of a Premier League club by the wealthy and powerful former Thai president is not a shocking news.

Nowadays, foreign capital invasion in the Premier League has become a common phenomenon.

Thaksin became the owner of Manchester City, and another Premier League club, Birmingham, has also recently changed hands. Its owner is a Chinese-Hong Kong rich businessman Yang Ka-shing.

At the same time, the wealthy Arsenal club is divided into two factions. They have to quarrel all day long whether to accept the injection of money from wealthy American businessmen. It even caused a personnel earthquake within the club. Vice Chairman David Dunn was angry because of disagreements with the Chairman. resignation. You must know that Dunn has a high reputation in the Arsenal team. The current head coach Wenger was brought back by Dunn from Japan, and Dunn is now the current chairman of the European G14 block. His departure is a time for the Arsenal club. Not a small blow.

The full-scale invasion of foreign capital has plunged many English clubs into a mood of anxiety, excitement and confusion.

Earlier, in March this year, Liverpool Football Limited issued a statement. The statement confirmed the speculation for a long time that the two American tycoons George Gillette and Tom Hicks completed the acquisition of Liverpool shares. These two people got 98.6% of Liverpool's shares and have become Liverpool's well-deserved major shareholders. Subsequently, the two American owners re-registered Liverpool as a club and made Liverpool a private limited company.

This set is exactly the same as when Evan Daugherty entered Nottingham Forest.

In today's English football, there are fewer and fewer clubs with pure pedigrees. Most of the teams in the Super League have affair with foreign investors.

The big boss of Manchester United is the American Glazer, the boss of Chelsea is the rich Russian Abramovich, the boss of Liverpool is the American Hicks and Gillette, and the boss of Nottingham Forest is the American British Evan Dogetty, The owner of Manchester City is Thaksin from Thailand, the owner of Birmingham is the Chinese Yang Ka-shing, the owner of West Ham is the Icelandic Magnusson, the owner of Portsmouth is the French Jew Gadamc, the owner of Aston Villa is the American Lerner... …The forerunner of foreign capital entering the Premier League is Fulham’s current boss, Egyptian Fayez. He became the big boss of the Fulham club ten years ago in 1997, when Fulham was just An unknown second-tier team, they were promoted to the Premier League four years later in 2001, and they have stayed.

Now Arsenal are split again because of whether they accept foreign investment. If in the end Arsenal decide to accept American capital, then one of the top five Premier League clubs will no longer be a true English club. In fact, the current Arsenal are often not regarded as an English club, because there are too many foreign players in it...The Gunners are often hated in China because of the strong taste of France.

In this country that pays attention to tradition and blood origin, this situation is really ironic...

The summer of 2007 was the busiest summer for foreign investment in the Premier League. If you understand this background, you will understand that this summer will definitely be uneven.

In order to please the fans of Manchester City, Thaksin took quite a lot of money, buying people everywhere, vowing to follow Abramovich.

Brazilian Elano and Italian Bianchi have both entered the gates of Manchester City. This time they have taken a fancy to Ashley Young, the right midfielder who has seen the Forest in the Premier League and European games in these two seasons.

In the past two seasons, Ashley Young has been firmly occupying the throne of the Premier League’s "assist king". Although this is related to the Forest team's tactics of flying with two wings and attaching importance to the side attack, it is also related to Ashley Young himself. The strength is inseparable.

Lennon is a very talented player. There is no doubt about this. He can't easily squeeze Ashley Young onto the bench. This shows Yang's ability. He is different from Ribery on the left. Although both of them are fast and good at breaking through, they are different from Ribery who likes to shoot inside. Yang prefers to cross, which also caused him to assist more than Ribery. One of the reasons for Rido.

In the first half of this year, a well-known sports flat company and the well-known statistics company OPTA jointly released a statistical report, with a very imposing name-"Top Ten Low-altitude Trapeze in the Premier League". As the name suggests, they are the ten fastest people.

The list was released, and Nottingham Forest became the most eye-catching club. Because the name of Nottingham Forest is the team with the most appearances in the team column after the names of the flying men-four times in total.

From fifth to eighth, all Forest players. Among them, the fifth place is Ashley Young. His running without the ball was 11.02, but he was running faster without the ball when chasing the ball-10.97.

The other four are the sixth Alan Lennon and George Wood, and Frank Ribery.

Being on the list also indirectly helped Ashley Young increase his worth a little.

Thaksin’s initial offer this time reached a price of 15 million pounds. How much did Nottingham Forest cost to buy the right assault genius from Watford?

Seven hundred thousand pounds!

Three years later, the price became 15 million pounds.

Shouldn't Dunn be satisfied?

Do not.

Dunn is too little.

The main player who won the European championship, the player who was selected as the best team in the Champions League last season, and the two consecutive Premier League assists, how can it be worth 15 million?

Nottingham Forest Club quickly responded to Manchester City. The official tone was: "Ashley Young is not for sale. His contribution on the right side of the team is very large. He is an important contributor to the Forest team in winning the Champions League. Coach Tony Dunn. Will not sell a meritorious player."

It may be very convincing to say this a week ago, but now it will only make people feel that there is something in the words.

Arteta is gone, are there any meritorious players in the Forest that cannot be sold?

That's how Manchester City understands-the Forest team feels that the money is short. Otherwise, why do they emphasize the importance of Ashley Young to the Forest team? There is no need for them to say these things again, the people on earth know it.

Dunn also hoped that they would understand this way.

Arteta wanted to stay, but Ashley Young didn't think about it.

Out of his love for Gareth Bale and Alan Lennon, Dunn had no affection for Ashley Young, who took them both to prostitute.

Although in the team, Ashley Young is the first candidate for the right midfielder, but in Dunn's words, "this is just work." Outside of work, Dunn didn't communicate much with the young man he personally recruited from Watford. He can chat with Bell's father, talk with Lennon about his ideals in life, joke with Eastwood who is warming up on a horse, and teach him the most important George Wood, and even with Van Nistelrooy. Yi talked about Ferguson. He just didn't have any contact with Ashley Young outside of work.

In fact, this was not the case before, but since that incident, his relationship with Ashley Young has cooled down rapidly. That matter, Dunn is still brooding.

Ashley Young took Bell and Lennon to prostitutes. He 100% believed that Bell and Lennon didn't really have **** with the prostitutes, but when he asked Yang, Yang answered no hesitation without hesitation.

From that moment on, Dunn lost interest in this young man. He knew that Yang was lying, and he was so comfortable and calm in telling him that it was not the first time he had lied.

Compared with the old man Ferguson, Dunn is not a coach who strictly interferes with the private lives of his opponents. He doesn't mind young people taking some detours in their private lives, nor does he mind young people spending money to find women to meet their physical needs...As long as they don't affect the state of the court, they do whatever they want.

But he cannot allow his players to deceive himself and treat him like a three-year-old ignorant child. This is the most unacceptable thing for him.

Why didn't you turn your face right away? Because Dunn believed that Lennon was still young and needed to continue his training, it was too hasty for him to directly play the main force. Lennon and Bell are the same. Dunn has a complete training plan for them. He doesn't want to encourage them. There are too many young geniuses in this world, and Dunn doesn't want this situation to happen to his men. Another reason is that Ashley Young's performance in the game is still very stable, he is still useful to the team. So Tang En pressed this matter to the bottom of his heart. He only expressed dissatisfaction with Tang at home, but never mentioned it to anyone else, as if he had forgotten this matter.

When Dunn announced that the Forest team had signed Beckham, everyone was worried about Forest's overcrowded right side next season. Only Tang knew that this person had never really worried about it. Even without the generous Thaksin boss this time, Dunn would try to sell Ashley Young. Now in English football, many people are interested in the assist king on the right.

However, since Thaksin’s boss is determined to be this "a lot of money and people are stupid", Dunn doesn't mind making more profit.

15 million pounds. Do you want to buy the main right wing of the European champion Nottingham Forest, the new right genius of the England national team, and the two consecutive Premier League assists? Are you begging, Thaksin "Prime Minister"?

Dunn and Allen carefully analyzed the background after the player acquisition and thought there was a play.

They are not afraid to force a buyer away, because Ashley Young has no shortage of buyers at all, it's just a matter of high prices.

Going back to the background at the beginning of this chapter, although it is a general trend for foreign capital to enter Premier League clubs, the vast majority of England fans still have a strong resistance to this behavior. Not to mention the rich in Russia or the rich in the United States, Thaksin, as a person from a small Southeast Asian country, this kind of resistance is even stronger.

He believes that he knows this, so he can't wait to announce the news that the team has signed with former England coach Eriksson, just to stabilize the people's hearts. At the same time, he promised in the media that he would spend at least 50 million pounds to buy powerful players and increase the strength of the team.

So far, the team's lack of transfers include Brazilian midfielder Elano and Italian striker Bianchi.

To be honest, these two people have no influence in the hearts of England fans. If he plans to rely on these two people to soothe the people, he will definitely suffer. Thaksin is not a fool, of course he knows this, so after closing these two transactions, Manchester City started chasing in the transfer market non-stop.

This time, after his talks with Eriksson, he set the focus of the breakthrough goal on the forest and the right forward of the England team, Ashley Young. Eriksson used to be the head coach of England. Ashley Young played in the World Cup in Germany. Eriksson understands Ashley Young's abilities.

Another reason is that Ashley Young is a local player. His reputation and appeal in England are much higher than Elano and Bianchi. To increase their position in the hearts of the fans in the city, it is not enough to rely on two foreign aids. It is not enough to repay Manchester City's debt of 60 million pounds. The fans only want to see enough stars to join.

As a result, Ashley Young, who just won the Champions League and won the league assists for two consecutive years in England, became an important piece of Thaksin's win over people.

With such an analysis, Dunn and Allen both firmly believed in the idea of ​​playing tricks.

Fifteen million is not enough, get more!

※※※

Manchester City's second offer, the price mentioned 18 million pounds.

This time, Nottingham Forest seemed to hesitate, and then still refused. The reason is still the same: "...Ashley Young is an important member of the team, Tony Dunn has no intention of selling the team's meritorious minister..."

During this period, Dunn went to Ashley Yang for an interview. He certainly wouldn't be the team that wants to sell you. He just asked if the rumors about his transfer in the media are real.

During the period, the media said that Eriksson had already contacted Ashley Young’s agent. After the former prime minister of Thailand took over Manchester City, Manchester City also had the confidence to give their favorite players the treatment they liked.

Therefore, Dunn went to Ashley Yang with a stern face, with great intentions of inquiring about sins.

Of course, Yang denied that his agent had contact with Manchester City privately. He also said that he really likes to play in Nottingham Forest. He just won an honor. How could he leave? No matter how high the other party’s treatment is, his determination of allegiance will not be shaken...

After saying this, both parties were "satisfied" and said goodbye.

The next day, Ashley Young’s agent found the Forest Club, hoping to give his players a raise. The reason for the agent is simple: you see that my player has been so hot recently, and there are countless clubs pursuing him. Since you all said that he is a meritorious minister of the team, don’t give him a higher salary. Some can't justify it? And the loyalty of my players to the team is absolutely nothing to say! You see, with so many clubs and even Manchester City's pursuit, he is not tempted. So should the team give Ashley Young a higher salary to reward his loyalty?

It was Dunn who received the agent. He smiled and affirmed Ashley Young's contribution to the team and thanked him for persisting in loyalty to the team despite such "rumors". When talking about this aspect, everyone smiled and the atmosphere of the meeting was very friendly and harmonious.

But when he turned to the topic of money, Dun En's smile was endless, but what he said was not what the agent wanted to hear.

"... Salary... As you know, the club is planning to build a new stadium recently, and the funds are not too generous..."

This is quite a tactful statement. After the agent repeatedly asked his players to receive salaries in line with his contributions, Dunn told him bluntly that the club would not talk to him about Ashley Young's treatment. problem.

"Yang has a three-year contract with the club, and we can wait until the last year is left to talk about it."

This is like a chasing order. When the agent heard Dunn's words, he got up and left.

Although everyone was still smiling, both sides knew in their hearts that this was a shame.

The day after the agent left, Manchester City made a third offer. This time they seemed bound to win, because in this offer, Manchester City told the Forest Club that if they disagree, this is the final offer, and Manchester City will not be right. Shili Yang raised his offer again.

Since Stuart Pierce retired from the position of Manchester City coach, the good relationship between the two clubs has ended, otherwise Manchester City would never use such a blunt tone to negotiate business with the Forest team. When Pierce was there, it only needed a phone call between the coaches of both sides and the problem was solved.

This time, Thaksin seemed to be cruel-25 million pounds!

Dunn took this fax to find Alan, the two sides looked at each other, and then laughed.

In the afternoon, Manchester City received a response from the Forest team: agreeing to this offer, Manchester City can negotiate a personal contract with Ashley Young.

※※※

In fact, Ashley Yang really didn't want to leave the Forest team at first, and he told Dunn the truth. But he hopes to use the recent media enthusiasm to fight for a higher salary in the team. Manchester City, the second dumbfounder, is very in line with the requirements of a supporting role.

However, Ashley Young and his agent did not expect that his head coach, Tony Dunn, who has always valued him on the football field, planned to sell him a season ago...

Dunn pushed the boat along and let Ashley Yang leave by himself.

Ashley Young is not a foolish person. Since the forest team can’t get a higher salary, it’s nothing to switch to a club with a higher salary while winning a Champions League and the value soars. not good. Professional players, training hard, trying hard to show themselves on the court, winning the championship, and also tossing injury for what? Is it really to take the gold medal home and put it in the cabinet? Is it really for the glory? Not for money, who would choose to play football as a lifelong career?

Dunn understood this deeply, so he did not prevent Ashley Yang from pursuing the happiness he wanted...

The forest team's second heavyweight transfer in the new season is finalized, and it is the most eye-catching transfer so far.

If Arteta's departure is just a substitute player who can't play the game, he wants to pursue a team that can make him the main force. Then, Ashley Young's departure made many people find it difficult to understand. From the perspective of the court, Ashley Young's importance to the Forest team is self-evident. The Forest team can win the Champions League and Ashley Young's performance is also very important.

Is it really like some media said, this is giving Beckham a place? Because Beckham’s sponsors put tremendous pressure on the Forest team? If this is the case, isn't it indirectly creating a lot of enemies in the forest team's locker room for Beckham? Dunn has always said that he does not look at fame in choosing the main players, only his ability and status. If it is really to sell Ashley Young to give Beckham the main position, then...the media have expressed that they are not optimistic about David Beckham. In the foreground of the forest team's locker room.

Their reasons seem to be very good: Beckham is a star who has been famous for a long time, but he is an outsider in the Forest team after all. How can he get along with the people in the Forest team's locker room? Moreover, it is difficult to guarantee that no one is jealous of what Beckham has obtained, and thus is prejudiced... Such people are not rare in football, will there be such people in the forest team's locker room? Will Ashley Young’s departure make the rest of the Forest team feel sad and at risk for everyone? Then there are some "common hatred"?

So... With the arrival of this world-class superstar, the atmosphere has always been harmonious, and will the forest team's locker room, where there has never been any negative news, make any waves?
