Raw in MTLNovel : "The Red Devils Successor"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When leaving Le Havre Club the next day, the chairman of the club, Sloka, personally came to the hotel to bid farewell to Tiger King and Woodward. Before leaving, Sloka held Tiger King's hand and laughed: "Mr. Tiger If there are any players in our team that you fancy, you are welcome to tell me directly. The price is negotiable. "
Tiger King also said politely: "If your team has any young talents, you can also recommend it to me at any time, as long as it is suitable for Manchester United, I still use the old rules."
"Don't make a counter-offer, ha ha ha ha, I really like you so much!" Sloka laughed with flutter on the face.
On the moving car, Tiger King was very disdainful: "If there is such a chairman in the club that only loves money and does not care about the management of the team, the club will not get better."
Woodward questioned Tiger King's words: "Tiger, are you sure you didn't talk about me?"
Tiger King smiled: "Of course, the exception is the business executive who is willing to run with the head coach."
"That's right," Woodward nodded with satisfaction, and he suddenly remembered something, "Tiger, how do you know that Sloka's price for Mahrez is 500,000 euros?"
Tiger King shrugged: "I said just now, I saw ..."
"Don't say anything more about the vision in your dream!" Woodward was a little dissatisfied. "Don't fool me."
Tiger King thought: If you ask me how to know the price, can I tell you it's from the memory of my past life?
In order to satisfy Woodward's curiosity, Tiger King pretended to be serious: "I have been paying attention to player transfer information for more than ten years. For players of different periods, different countries and different leagues, It's almost always an estimate. "
Woodward didn't believe it: "Don't say it's you. Even the best business executives can't guess so accurately like you. Have you got any inside information?"
Tiger King deliberately looked out the window, without looking into his eyes: "If I have inside information, would I still have to work so hard to negotiate a transfer?"
"I guess not, so how?"
"Because I'm a business genius."
"You wish!" Woodward said with a disdainful expression. "You're correct only this one time. If you really able to estimate the next player, then I will believe that you are a business genius. "
Tiger King's heart is funny, based on his understanding of the previous life football, he really can remember the general amount of every important transfers. In the circles of future fans, some even call him the football encyclopedia.
Tiger King looked at the two lists in his hand: "I'm not sure about the first one, because the club has focused on training him. I don't think it's even possible to buy him, but the transfer price of the second person is estimated to be around 5 million to 6 million, the highest is only 6 million. "
"Okay, let's take a bet and see if you guessed right this time."
"This is a rational judgment. How can I guess?"
"Yeah yeah, I believe you."
Tiger King and Woodward rushed directly from Le Havre to Lyon, France, with the goal of course being the Ligue 1 giant. Woodward has a good relationship with Lyon club' chairman Olas, and the two had some commercial cooperation. When Tiger King reported the list of two people who wanted to buy, Olas snapped: "You want to buy Nabil Fekir and Anthony Martial?"
Tiger King nodded.
Olas hesitated for a moment, then said to the two, "Fekir is a young man the club is currently focused on. He is the future of Lyon. Ed, my friend, I'm sorry, Fekir is not for sale now. As for Marshall, well, we can release him for 6 million euros. "
"What! Are you sure?" Woodward asked suddenly, looking very surprised, and then he looked at Tiger King beside him, as if he saw a ghost.
Tiger King hurriedly explained to Olas: "Ed was disappointed when he heard you say not to sell Fekir. Please don't mind him."
At this time, Woodward was still in a state of panic and could not speak for a long time. Lyon's English translator hurriedly translated the words of Tiger King to Olas, and Olas shook his head helplessly: "Ed, my old friend, We have built a lineup around Fekir next season. He will become the core of our team's midfield in the future. Even if you pay a lot of money now, I still can not sell Fekir to you, Sorry."
In Woodward's state of death, Tiger King agreed to Olas's 6 million bid for Martial. Seeing Woodward's look dull, Olas thought he was angry about Fekir, so in order to ease the atmosphere, Olas told Woodward: "Dear friend, to make up for my apologies to you, Yesterday Monaco just offered to buy Martial, I just pushed it out, and then gave Martial to Manchester United. It should make you feel better. "
Tiger King met Martial, and the two talked about the future vision. Martial asked him carefully: "Mr. Tiger, you didn't buy me to England to throw me into the youth team, right? Yesterday Monaco promised me that I would be a substitute player and be a substitute player in the Ligue 1 league. "
Tiger King thought to himself: This Marshall really has some character, but this is also good. As a genius, it is right to be able to care about the plan for his future.
Thinking of this, Tiger King solemnly promised: "In the new season of the Premier League, you are a rotation player on our front. We have league and cup tasks. You don't have to worry about not having a game. You are my hope in the future.
"That's good." Martial finally signed the contract with satisfaction.
Martial successfully transferred, the transfer fee is 6 million, and now Tiger King's transfer funds has shrunk to 32.7 million.
On the way out of Lyon, Woodward's eyes looked different when he looked at Tiger King: "Tiger, if you have a chance in the future, would you like to work with me as a business executive?"
Tiger King smiled: "I still like to be a head coach. Besides, I'm only guessing a player's worth."
"God, what kind of monster head coach did the club sign ..." Woodward covered his head with emotion.
Tiger King did not speak, and smiled mysteriously.
"Mr. Business Genius, where shall we go to next?" Woodward looked at Tiger King with anticipation and suddenly became his secret fan.
"To Rennes, I want to sign a future world footballer!" Tiger King said calmly.
