Sitting in the living room of a villa in the suburbs of Manchester, Perón and his agent Hidalgo are relatively silent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He has never been a sensitive and fragile man, otherwise he would not have been able to suppress the likes of Nedved, Simeone and Crespo during his time at Parma and Lazio and become a veritable core of the team.

Without a strong heart, it is simply impossible to do it.

But now, he looked depressed.

Before joining Manchester United, he was the star of Lazio, one of the top midfielders in Serie A, and even overshadowed Zidane of Juventus, and even Nedved could only play as his second-in-command.

But now, in just two years, Zidane has become the world's No. 1 superstar, Nedved has also become the star of Juventus, and he Veron is depressed at Manchester United, and his life is too impermanent.

Sometimes, he even wonders, if there had been no fake passport scandal and he hadn't left Serie A, would all this not happen again?

No one knows what to expect, but the problem at hand is imminent.

"I spoke to Ferguson. Veron whispered.

Fernando Hidalgo, the agent, was hopeful and asked, "What did he say?"

He said...... "Veron was a little hard to say," he said...... The transfer is the responsibility of the management. ”

Hidalgo was completely disappointed, "He's pushing, pushing irresponsibly." ”

"I know. Veron smiled bitterly, "But there are some things that he can't say to his face." ”

Everyone can see that Manchester United's patience with him has reached the limit.

He is one of the highest-paid players on the team, but almost everyone agrees that his performances are nowhere near worthy of his salary.

United gave him two years and now it looks like they have run out of patience.

From the point of view of businessmen, they have done nothing wrong, but they are ...... Is it a business?

'Juan, everybody knows that you're not bad at Manchester United, you've played at a very high level in a lot of games, what you need is trust, it's a better environment and space, and they should give you more trust after Beckham leaves. ”

Hidalgo is clearly unhappy with United's decision, as they didn't say that two years ago.

In order to invite Veron to Manchester United, they made a lot of promises, but they did not fulfill all of them.

For example, they promised to tailor a tactic for Veron, but in fact, this promise was only fulfilled in the early stages, and during that time, Veron also showed that he was not inferior to the level of his Serie A days, and was even voted the Premier League's Player of the Month.

But after an injury, Veron was suspended, Ferguson returned to the traditional style of play, and his results have steadily improved, and when Veron returns from injury, it will be difficult to find a place in the team.

Scholes, David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Keane, Gary Neville...... How many years they have been playing at Manchester United, they have a lot of tacit understanding with each other, and they are not at the same rhythm as Veron when they play, which makes it difficult for Veron to adapt.

Moreover, Manchester United's requirements for central midfielders also make it difficult for Veron to adapt, because he certainly can't think about how to control the tempo and comb the midfield on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to desperately retreat to defend and actively fight, which is not what he is good at at all.

For these questions, Veron has also raised them with Ferguson more than once, and the answers he got were all reassuring, asking him to be patient enough, and the coaching staff and management still trust him.

But now it seems that Veron feels that he still overestimates his status and influence at Manchester United.

Even Beckham can sell it, let alone him?

Thinking of this, Veron let out a long wistful breath, and the whole person raised his head and looked at the ceiling in a daze.

Leaving Manchester United like that?

Just like this, in your career, leaving a dark section?

Fernando Hidalgo also had a headache because there was nothing he could do about it.

As an agent, he can talk to Manchester United management and Ferguson, but the other party's attitude is so clear, it is difficult for him to recover, so the wisest choice now is to quickly find a good home and leave Manchester United.

But this point, Veron is not very emotionally acceptable.

He is a high-minded and arrogant man, how can he accept that he was staring at the title of the world's No. 1 midfielder in the Premier League, but now he is going to leave like a lost dog?

"I've been informed that there are two teams that have made it clear that they are interested in you. ”

Perón still had his head tilted back and didn't speak, but Hidalgo knew he was listening.

"Juventus want to sell Davies, they want to get you and fill their midfield. ”

Veron's hand on the leather surface of the sofa trembled visibly.

Going to Juventus?

Isn't that to give Nedved a hand?

Hidalgo also understood Veron's thoughts, sighed in his heart, and continued: "I heard that yesterday, Chelsea also made a formal offer to Manchester United, and they wanted to invite you to join the Blues. ”

"Chelsea?" Veron finally looked at his agent, his eyes narrowed, "Gao Han!"

He had played against Gao Han when he was at Manchester United, and he knew how terrible the young manager was, and at the same time, he could also feel Atletico Madrid's passing style, which suited his technical characteristics.

"But they can't play in the Champions League, they can only play in the UEFA Cup. Hidalgo reminded.

Perón nodded, he knew it.

If you go to Juventus, you can play in the Champions League, but your tactical status will definitely not be high.

Going to Chelsea is also very risky, because everyone is now doubting whether Gao Han's passing and controlling style of play can adapt to the Premier League.

Veron is twenty-eight years old and has not been in form for a few years, and if the next team repeats the mistakes of Manchester United, his career will be completely over.

Just when Belon couldn't decide, the agent's mobile phone suddenly rang.

Hidalgo answered the phone, and said, "He's right next to me," and then looked at Veron, covering the microphone of his phone, "It's Gao Han, he wants to say a word to you." ”

Perón was taken aback, but reached out to take the phone.

"Hey, hello, Mr. Gao Han, I'm Juan. ”

"Hello Juan. Gao Han's voice came from the phone.

"I won't say more than any extra polite words, I'll just ask you, are you willing to leave the Premier League like this?"

…………

In the manager's office at Carrington's training base, Ferguson was a little restless.

Brother Martin Ferguson has returned, bringing back the latest developments.

PSV Eindhoven further raised their asking price for Arjan Robben from the same €5 million to €10 million, leaving Martin Ferguson in vain.

"I've been in contact with PSV Eindhoven and they've made it clear that at least that's the price. Martin Ferguson shook his head and sighed.

Arjen Robben has certainly done quite well in the Netherlands and is PSV Eindhoven's most promising star, but 10 million euros is a bit high, as he has proven himself in the top flight and in the national team.

As the best player in the Eredivisie last season, Ajax winger Donny van der Meyde is worth about that amount, but Van der Meyde is 23 years old, more mature and stable, and has performed well in the national team.

Now, a Robben is asking for 10 million euros, which Ferguson has a hard time accepting.

"It seems that we have a big difference with PSV Eindhoven regarding Robben's valuation. Ferguson said in a deep voice.

He has been involved in European football for many years and naturally knows this negotiating trick.

To put it bluntly, I just want to raise the price.

"Martin, you go and get in touch with Blackburn and then release the news, we have shifted our target and want to buy Duff. ”

Martin Ferguson nodded in agreement.

This is also a common coping strategy, shifting the target and competing with the other party for patience.

Of course, if you look at the valuation, 10 million euros to buy Robben, it is really better to buy Duff directly from Blackburn, at least the latter has proven his strength in the Premier League, and there is no problem of adaptability.

On the contrary, Robben, after being introduced, whether he can adapt to the Premier League is still unknown.

As the only club in European football that is self-financing and financially healthy, Manchester United's transfer strategy has always been skillful and pragmatic, especially after the failure to bring in Veron at a sky-high price.

"How's it going over there in Paris?" asked Ferguson, concerned.

Martin Ferguson shook his head, "There is still not much progress, yesterday Peter Kenyon made an appointment to meet with Paris Saint-Germain chairman Francis Grasser, but it was refused, and they made it clear that they would not sit down with us without us raising the offer." ”

Manchester United's offer for Ronaldinho has been raised to 17 million euros, but there is still a big gap between the 30 million euros that Paris Saint-Germain wants, which is also the biggest obstacle for the two clubs to sit down and negotiate.

"But I received news in Paris that they were already in serious debt and couldn't get out of it, and the news that the media broke that the so-called Real Madrid intervened in the transfer, but in fact the situation was different. ”

"How?" Ferguson asked with concern.

In the past few years, Manchester United can be regarded as one of the top giants in European football, and they have only lost to Real Madrid in terms of influence.

Therefore, Ferguson believes that for players of Ronaldinho's level, Manchester United's biggest rival is the Galaxy Battleship, and even Barcelona in La Liga is not taken seriously by them.

The latter's situation in recent years is clear to everyone, and this summer, Barcelona's top priority is internal purges, not signings.

"Real Madrid are indeed interested in Ronaldinho, but they are not in a hurry and prefer to set it in advance and operate again next year, but Paris Saint-Germain is in dire need of money and cannot accept Real Madrid's proposal. ”

After hearing this, Ferguson couldn't help laughing, "In this way, Barcelona is in a hurry to clean up, and we are the only team in the transfer market that is interested in Ronaldinho." ”

Martin Ferguson nodded, "That's right. ”

"What did the management say?"

"Peter Kenyon told me that we should suspend our contact with PSG for the time being, put some pressure on them, let them take the initiative to lower the asking price first, and put some pressure on the club to help us negotiate the next step. ”

"Well," Ferguson nodded, "then do as he wants, and put it aside for now, anyway, it's only the beginning of July, and it's still early." ”

"Understood. Martin Ferguson replied, "Oh, yes, I just got the message. ”

"What?"

'Chelsea have already agreed with Veron. ”

"So fast?" said Ferguson, surprised.

"Yes, I heard that Gao Han personally came forward and called Belon to make a decision in the morning. ”

Ferguson frowned.

Veron's quality, he is clear, but the Argentine midfielder is really difficult to integrate into Manchester United's midfield.

But I went to Chelsea......

Ferguson gasped, feeling that it wasn't a good thing.

Even, faintly, he had a very ominous premonition.
