Raw in MTLNovel : "The Red Devils Successor"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tiger King handed over his carefully prepared list of purchasers to Gill and Woodward. Jill froze for a long time and didn't speak. Woodward looked at Tiger King with a puzzled and questioning look: "On your transfer list, there are 15 unknown young men I have never heard of?"
Tiger King shook his head: "This is not 15 obscure young people, but 15 Manchester United's stars of hope for the future."
Woodward frowned, holding the list: "Although I am the club's commercial director, I still know the situation of international football very well. I have never heard any of the 15 people mentioned on your list."
Tiger King didn't respond. He looked at the two people sitting opposite him, then leaned back and continued listening.
"Mr. Manager, I didn't expect that you were so skilled at making Excel tables. Look at this list," Woodward waved the list gently. "Player's name, position, age, nationality, and there are also the clubs where they are right now, it's very clear. From this point of view, you are better than Sir Ferguson. Mr. Manager must be good with computer. "
"Thank you for the compliment." Tiger King's face was very calm.
Woodward's voice suddenly became a little solemn: "But Mr. Manager, look at where the people you choose from, the French Ligue 2, French National 2, the Bundesliga Schalke 04 youth team, I am very curious, how do you even know about these people?"
Tiger King spread his hands, "I dreamed of them, and then I chose them. It was that simple."
"Mr. Manager, This is not a f*cking Joke!" Woodward was a little angry. "Did you forget the agreement stated in the contract, at least the 4th place in the Premier League and the top 16 of the Champions League! if you can't achieve this goal, you have only one way to go! Back to the Youth team!"
At this time, Tiger King's voice also becomes louder: "Mr. Director, I think you must also remember that the contract clearly stated that I am fully responsible for the transfer of the club, and no one can interfere!"
"Oh, Jesus Christ. With your ability to make contracts and your understanding of contracts, it's a loss for you not to be a lawyer." Woodward sighed helplessly.
Tiger King smiled: "I guess after one year, if I really go to be a lawyer, you will say it's a loss for Manchester United."
"Alright, you win," Woodward picked up the list again, and looked at it carefully. "Seriously, you estimate that the budget of these 15 people is less than 40 million euros. If this price can really buy 15 new superstar, my business executives will laugh when they sleeps."
"In five years, the total value of these 15 people will surely exceed 1 billion." Tiger King was serious.
Woodward gave a thumbs up and said jokingly: "Okay, then I thank you for this billion euros."
"You're welcome, good cooperation, Mr. Woodward."
At this time, Gill, who has not spoken, said: "Mr. Manager, Ed is here today for one purpose, to help you complete the goals on the transfer list.."
Woodward nodded: "Mr. Manager, if there is any requirement, please mention it. For example, It is also possible for me to contact these 15 people now."
Tiger King waved his hand: "These 15 people are special. Some people need me to take a trip to see them myself."
"Okay, I happen to be free recently. Where do you want to go first, I will accompany you." Woodward looked very kind.
Tiger King knew that this time the reason he helped him were on one hand to help himself to complete the transfer goal, and on the other hand he wanted to monitor himself and see the players himself.
Tiger King smiled: "Then I will say thank you in advance for helping me."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
Tiger King pointed to the two names on the list: "These two are in England. I plan to go to them this afternoon and say hello to my future players."
Woodward looked at the list on the paper, with the names of two people at the top: Marcos Alonso and Dele Alli.
That night, when 17-year-old Dele Alli saw a Manchester United transfer representative, he felt really incredible.
He played for the youth team of Milton Keynes Club. This year the contract has expired. The club is discussing with him about renewing the contract, but the salary of this contract is only a poor £ 2,000. Compared with players of the same level, his salary couldn't even reach half of theirs, and he is an excellent young player in the club's youth team. This salary is really unacceptable to him.
Milton Keynes Club, in order to exert pressure, did not renew the contract after Ali's contract expired. The club leader had a wishful thinking: you are now a free agent with no matches to play. Who would want you if you did not sign with us? In addition, Milton Keynes Club is an unknown club in English Football, not to mention a player from their youth team, even their main players are rarely paid attention to. So the club is not worried that someone will signed Alli first.
But they thought wrong. Someone actually come directly to Alli's house, and they were Manchester United's transfer representatives.
When Manchester United's transfer representative explained his intention and handed in the contract, Alli didn't even read the whole contract and signed it without hesitation. From the youth team of an unknown team, to the youth team of Manchester United, this is like living from earth to heaven! Even if the weekly salary is reduced to 1,000, Ali will not hesitate to sign the contract.
Of course, Manchester United is not stingy. They provided Alli with a £ 5,000 weekly salary and promised to focus on training him, which made Alli ecstatic. When the Milton Keynes Club returned, the talents of their youth team had already lived in the dormitory of the Carrington training base, and the chairman of the Milton Keynes Club regretted it.
After learning about this, Tiger King felt it was very funny: If there is a pig-like chairman like him, even the best clubs will be ruined.
After Woodward's victory in the first transfer, Tiger King was very happy. Although he was a little dissatisfied with Woodward's "everything for money" management attitude, he had to admit that Woodward was indeed a management genius. Only one night, he could finalized the first transfer.
Tiger King, who came through from the future, knows very well that in the future, the Premier League team Tottenham Hotspur will purchase Dele Alli, and the club formed a sharp team consisting of Harry Kane, Dale Alli and Son Heung-min. The attack line set off a youth storm throughout England. At that time, Alli's value was worth a hundred million euros.
Alli is a free agent now, his transfer fee is 0. Now, Tiger King still has 50 million transfer funds available.
Go on to buy more players!
