Chapter 215
"Boss, don't leave in such a hurry!"
Hearing the hurried voice behind him, Li Shiguang, who was walking towards the training ground with a tactical clipboard, stopped and turned around to see Allen running towards him in a hurry with a stack of papers.
Reaching out his hand to stop Allen who seemed to be about to rush over, Li Shiguang looked at him with a smile: "Hey hey hey... Why are you so anxious so early in the morning? What's the matter?"
First, he handed the paper in his hand to Li Shiguang, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Allen said: "Boss, this is Ron's latest scouting report from last month. There is a kid from Tottenham in it. He thinks he can buy it. Let me remind you to take a look."
First, he flipped through a few pages of the scouting report in his hand, and then Li Shiguang looked up at Allen again with a little surprise: "Tottenham? Okay, I'll take a look when I'm free later! But it's just a kid? Are you so anxious?"
"Oh, there are two more things!" Allen shook his head and began to explain, "I just received a call from Chen, he said that a Chinese reporter named Yu Tian wants to interview you."
"Chen Guanhai? Yu Tian?"
Li Shiguang suddenly remembered Yu Tian, a reporter from China's "Sports Weekly" who asked him questions at the press conference last time.
Why did this Chinese reporter come to interview me? I am a Chinese expatriate in the UK! And he even found Chen Guanhai?
After frowning and thinking for a while, Li Shiguang decided to ask Chen Guanhai what was going on first.
"Don't worry about this matter. I will call Chen Guanhai to ask him clearly when I have time!"
Waving his hand, Li Shiguang turned around and pretended to leave.
"Don't panic, boss, there are two more things!" But Allen stopped him immediately.
"Huh? So much work just after work? Come on, I'm in a hurry to go to training!"
"Boss, the two young midfielders you said you had to get before, after so much arguing, the two clubs finally agreed, but the asking price is a bit beyond the upper limit you set before!"
Damn, this is good news!
Li Shiguang's eyes lit up, and he was finally able to buy Kroos and Casemiro to Leeds United!
In fact, Leeds United has been offering to Sao Paulo and Bayern Munich for these two players since last year, but the two clubs have not relented. Especially Bayern Munich, even Hummels came to Leeds United, they did not agree to sell Kroos to him!
So he asked Allen impatiently: "How much do they want? Just two youth training players, not a lot, right?"
"Sao Paulo is okay, they only want 3 million euros, but Bayern Munich is outrageous, they want 6 million euros!" Allen said weakly.
What the hell? Beckenbauer is so shameless now? He dares to sell a player who just turned 17 for 6 million! ? Although Leeds United is no longer short of money, Li Shiguang himself is a black shop, and he can be blackened by others in the matter of buying players, which makes him a little uncomfortable.
I secretly thought that things will change over time. When you want to bring Lahm back to Munich in the future, don't blame me for asking too much.
Li Shiguang was relieved: "Okay, this is the price. Let Ron sign the contract in Brazil, and you will have to fly to Munich in Germany."
"No problem, I'll reply to them."
"Also! Send a copy of the two kids' information to Miguel and tell him that I will loan the two kids to Real Sociedad in the summer. He doesn't have to worry about the expenses, we will pay for it all. But I have a request, to ensure their playing time next season!"
····
After lunch, Li Shiguang took Simeone back to the office.
After throwing the scouting report that Allen gave him in the morning to Simeone, Li Shiguang took out his mobile phone and called Chen Guanhai.
Not long after, the call was connected. Chen Guanhai seemed to be having lunch. After a swallowing sound, the boy greeted Li Shiguang: "Brother Li, have you eaten?"
"Just finished."
"Do you have anything to tell me?"
"You're asking me? Didn't you call Allen this morning and say someone wanted to interview me?"
"Yes, yes, that's right, Brother Li, what do you say? Do you have time?"
Seeing that Chen Guanhai didn't seem to care about this matter, Li Shiguang was even more suspicious.
There was one thing he hadn't figured out, that is, how did this reporter know that Chen Guanhai knew him.
Like Chelsea, Leeds United is 100% privatized. The fact that Chen Guanhai has some Leeds United shares is only known to himself, Allen, Chen Guanhai and his father.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Shiguang made it very clear when signing the contract that the Chen family could not disclose the fact that they had purchased a part of Leeds United shares, and if they wanted to withdraw their shares one day, they would have an absolute priority to repurchase!
This Chinese reporter suddenly found Chen Guanhai to be the middleman. Li Shiguang's first reaction was that Chen Guanhai was drunk and talked nonsense everywhere, and this person heard it.
So he frowned and asked, "How does this reporter named Yu Tian know that you know me? How did you two know each other?"
"This Yu Tian knows me through Lao Chen." Chen Guanhai seemed to realize that something was wrong with Li Shiguang's words, so he hurriedly explained, "Lao Chen has been busy organizing our Leeds United's China trip this summer after he went back. He also has some connections in the domestic sports world, and then he found Yu Tian's leader to help with publicity. When the leader of "Sports Weekly" heard Lao Chen say that you and I are friends, he asked Lao Chen for my phone number and wanted me to be the middleman to ask if you can Can't accept an interview from them. This Yu Tian is just their reporter stationed in Europe, not a special person. "
"Damn, that's it!"
"Hehehe, Brother Li, don't worry, I know you don't want to be involved with those idiots in the Chinese Football Association. I have already investigated this person's background, it's clean! But then again, if you want to lead the team to China to make money in the summer, you have to pass this level anyway!"
Li Shiguang knew that Chen Guanhai was right, and that was the truth, but if Lao Chen could handle it all, and he just made money quietly and left, that would be the best!
The two chatted for a while, and Li Shiguang finally rejected Yu Tian's request for an interview.
But just as he hung up the phone, Simeone handed a piece of paper to him and asked, "Boss, is this kid the focus of attention that Ron said?"
