Chapter 18: Five-year contract

18-year covenant (this chapter is free)

Before Xiao Yu left England, he had called to inform Curtis's parents to reassure them that his son was very good in Manchester. During the period when Xiao Yu left, Curtis's parents also had many He called and asked Curtis to return to London.

But Curtis was never ready to go back, just wasting.

Until now, more than half a month had passed, and Curtis's father was busy and rushed to Manchester.

As a mulatto, Curtis's father is an African immigrant and his mother is an Englishman. The former works in a logistics company and is very busy, while the latter is a housewife, just like an ordinary British low-income family.

Out of consideration, Xiao Yu called the Chinese restaurant on the outskirts of Faulkner Street.

The four sat down face to face. Curtis's parents sat side by side. Both eyes stared at Curtis from start to finish. The latter looked like a child who had done something wrong. people.

The crowd was silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became stiff.

"Oh, I heard Curtis mentioned that your family likes Chinese food very well. The Chinese food here is very famous. You can taste it and see what it is like in London." Xiao Yu smiled and broke the silence.

Davis retracted his eyes, turned to Xiao Yu, and nodded gratefully: "Thank you very much, Mr. Xiao Yu, since this time, he must have caused you a lot of trouble, please forgive us for your negligence!"

"It's nothing. He likes playing football, so he basically doesn't go out and stays in the training field."

After Davis heard it, he took a deep look at Curtis, and sighed, "It's all my fault. I'm busy with work, or I should have rushed over to take him back."

"I don't want to go back!" Curtis suddenly looked up, yelling.

"What a joke? If you don't go back, do you plan to stay here?"

"Yeah, Curtis, well, go back with us. You can play football when you go back to London. There are more children who like to play football in Luton. You can play with them." Davis His wife persuaded.

"No, I won't go to Luton, I will stay at New Manchester United!" Curtis was still stubborn.

"New Manchester United is just a newly established amateur club. Luton is a formal professional club. How many people want to go for training ..." Davis is also an acute child. Yu's embarrassing expression was still awake when Mrs. Davis bumped him secretly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Yu, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean that, really!" Davis understood that he kept apologizing, the weather was hot, and he was so sweaty.

"It's okay, you're right. We are indeed a newly formed club, but we are not amateurs. We have signed a few full-time contracts, but the pay is definitely not as high as Luton."

After listening, Davis was more at a loss, trying to explain, but afraid of getting darker and darker, and finally sighed.

"Frankly, Mr. Xiao Yu, I am also a Manchester United fan. I support you 100%, but I am a son of Curtis. They all say he has a talent for playing football, and a family like ours. It ’s not easy, there is no way to give Curtis anything, but fortunately he is also struggling to win the appreciation of the Luton Club. "

Speaking of which, Davis smiled proudly like all fathers who are proud of his son's achievements.

"Although there is no salary as an apprentice for the youth team, Luton is responsible for the costs of study, training and living. This is a great help for families like us, and Luton is a long-established old club. Although, after being relegated from the Premier League in 1992, 96 was relegated to English B. As a professional club, Luton, who is determined to return to the Premier League, can provide Curtis with a better development environment. "

What Davis said was that Xiao Yu couldn't refute it.

In his memory, Luton has never returned to the Premier League since relegation, but in the English Premier League, that is, the English Champions League, English League B, English League C, and even the national league. .

However, as a veteran club, Luton must be more believeable in English football than New Manchester United.

"You are right, Mr. Davis, I do not deny that, for the time being, we are too inferior to Luton. Whether it is from staffing or club conditions, we are at a disadvantage in all aspects, but what we can give The conditions are also what Luton does not have, that is, we can give Curtis more opportunities. "

As soon as Xiao Yu's words paused, the excited Curtis had already snatched it, and then said.

"Yes, Dad, do you know? I played in New Manchester United's internal training and do you know who our opponents are? Giggs, Ryan Giggs, and Roy Keane They now come to train with us every day, and you can't believe I can fight them. "

At this point, Curtis couldn't believe his face, as if he remembered the scene of playing with Giggs and Keane, and was very enchanted.

"You don't know, I can't believe I dreamed, I can play with them on the court one day, Roy and Ryan often remind me, oh, and Steve Bruce, the greatest legend in Manchester United history Central defender, he is my partner now, he taught me all day, but from them, I can really learn a lot. "

"Dad, this is a different club, I like it here, I like Xiao Yu, even though he is always suspicious and afraid of my bad learning, I adore Steve, he is so outstanding, he is almost perfect Central defender, I also like everyone here, they are very enthusiastic, unlike Luton's cold training camp. "

Obviously, Curtis would not have said much before, so when he saw such a lengthy discussion, the Davis and the couple stared at him in stun, they might even be worried whether Xiao Yu gave Curtis a meal What's the medicine?

But Curtis talked about Manchester United's big names like this, which made Davis somewhat skeptical.

Is New Manchester United not a traitor to Manchester United?

"Steve Bruce has promised to take over as our team's head coach. Ryan has just returned from vacation, playing training in our club and recovering. Roy is recovering from a serious injury, but they are very supportive of our club!"

Davis finally understood, but he was still surprised. He did not expect that Xiao Yu had dug Steve Bruce as head coach, and Keane and Giggs also supported Xiao Yu in this way. This is indeed a big David. As expected.

"Mr. Davis, in fact, I think that a potential player does not necessarily have to go to a vocational training camp to be successful. He has a model like Steve Bruce and teaches by hand. The help is even greater, and although we are only playing in the Northwest Division B now, I am confident that I can be promoted to the National League within five years. By then, Curtis is only 18 years old and can just get enough exercise. opportunity."

Seeing Mr. Davis was still hesitant, Xiao Yu couldn't help saying it.

"If you don't believe it, I can make an agreement with you. After five years, if New Manchester United cannot advance to the National League and a team higher than us is interested in Curtis, we are willing to release it unconditionally. People, do n’t pay a penny! ”

Xiao Yu has already talked about this, plus Curtis really seems to have been determined to stay in Manchester, the Davis couple can only helplessly accept this.

"But you don't seem to have a youth camp!" Davis asked another confusion.

Xiao Yu also felt a headache for this. The youth training camp was not established, it took time, money, and people. But for New Manchester United, why should it attract young players and coaches?

"For the time being we will consider letting Curtis follow the team's training. Of course, we will take care of his age and arrange his training content reasonably. In this regard, Bruce is already working on it."

Davis and his wife are not familiar with the field of football. They are purely fans who like to watch football. They do not know these things at all, but since Xiao Yu said yes, Curtis has no opinion, then it should be okay.

However, although it has been decided to keep Curtis in Manchester, there are still many things to ask and care about, such as what to do in Curtis' life, where he will go to school and the like.

Xiao Yu went to great lengths to explain the arrangement of the club to Curtis to the Davis couple in detail. After all, parents of their parents gave their children to their hands. They must take good care of them and reassure their parents.

Finally, after the Davis and the couple had figured out all their doubts, and confirmed that their son would have no problems in Manchester, they began to warn Curtis to ask him to train in Manchester, study hard, and strive for what to do in the future. How was it……

Xiao Yu sat aside and heard that it was really touched and helpless. Poor parents ’hearts, but sometimes, their range of care is really too wide. Only 13 years old, they all care about whether they can make a girlfriend. Go up.

Since Davis is still going to work tomorrow morning, after four people have dinner, the couple will rush back to London overnight, while Xiao Yu takes Curtis to send them out of Faulkner Street and go to After the taxi, I turned back to George Street.

"Hey, you promised my dad to be promoted to the National League for five years, okay? Don't brag!" Curtis looked at Xiao Yu with suspicion. He always felt that Xiao Yu's guarantee was not much, because He hasn't heard much from players in private, and funding is the key to a club's success.

But Xiao Yu didn't look like a rich man!

"Rest assured, five years will be five years, maybe you do n’t have to, but it ’s you, do n’t worry about me so much, and strive to improve ourselves is the key, even if we cannot upgrade to New Manchester United, you will be able to Go to the big clubs, you know? "

Curtis nodded, trying to say something, but he held back. 2k novel reading network
