Chapter 487: Why don't you buy a team to play with?

"Hey, Don, let me introduce you to my brother, Sheikh. Mansour. Root. Zeid. Al Nahyan, you can call him Mansour, Mansour, this is the Tang Feng I often mentioned to you, you can call him Tang. During the banquet, Prince Zeid led a man who looked about the same age as him over, in Tang Feng's eyes, the Arabs looked similar, so he didn't care much at first, but when he heard Prince Zeid's introduction, he knew that the middle-aged man in front of him who looked very handsome was the famous Prince Mansour.

Prince Zeyed's natal Jiao of Sheikh. Isaac. Root. Zeid. Al Nahyan, both of them are the half-brothers of the current president of the UAE and the emirate of Abu Dhabi, and their father was the previous president of the UAE.

However, compared to the low-key Prince Zeid, Mansour, as an elder brother, can be described as famous. Unlike Prince Isak, Mansour now serves as the UAE's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Presidential Affairs, and his greatest fame is that he spent a lot of money in 2009 to buy the famous Premier League team Manchester City, and at the same time, he is also the chairman of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and the Royal Wealth Foundation, which many people may not know exactly what it is, but if it is called another name, it is a big name, and the Abu Dhabi consortium is talking about this institution.

And the forty-six-year-old Prince Mansour in front of him is the current helm of the Abu Dhabi consortium.

"Hello, Mr. Tang, nice to meet you." Mansur shook Tang Feng's hand affectionately.

"I'm just as glad to meet you, Your Royal Highness." For the famous Prince Mansour, Tang Feng still admires him, as a fan. Even if he is a pseudo fan, Tang Feng also likes this Prince of the United Arab Emirates who made Abu into a "little Abu".

In the summer of 2003, Russian oil magnate Roman Abramovich bought the debt-ridden Premier League side Chelsea for £150 million, and began to change the overall landscape of the Premier League. The oil giant from Russia, waving a huge cheque, caused a "ruble whirlwind" in the Premier League for two years. It broke the monopoly of the three giants of the Premier League, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool on the Premier League champions, and successfully made Chelsea the fourth big man in the Premier League.

In the years that followed, Abou's Chelsea were in the Premier League, but that was shattered within a few years by the more wealthy Mansour.

On September 22, 2009, the Abu Dhabi consortium, which was worth 17 billion pounds at the time and had total assets of more than 500 billion pounds, bought the Manchester City team, which opened the situation of the two oil giants in the Premier League.

When Abou first took charge of Chelsea, all the Premier League teams were shocked by Abou's deep pockets. But when Mansour took over Manchester City, all the Premier League teams were shouting "wolf"! Because compared with Abu, whose net worth is only 11 billion pounds, Mansour, whether it is his personal net worth or the Abu Dhabi consortium behind him, is not something that Abu can match. Since then, Abu, who has unlimited scenery in the Premier League, has been forced to be suppressed by Mansour, who intervened strongly, and became "Little Abu".

"Hehe, Don, just call me Mansour. I've heard Isaac talk about you many times, but the last time you came to Isaac's wedding. We didn't have a chance to talk, but this time we had the opportunity to have a good chat. ”

"Well, Mansour, I have to start by congratulating you on Manchester City having won the Premier League again and reached the last four of the Champions League. This is the first time that Manchester City FC has reached the last four of the Champions League, and I have to say that Chilean engineer Manuel Pellegrini has now transformed Manchester City into a more champion! ”

"Wow, Don, do you like football?" It seems to be a surprise that Tang Feng opened his mouth to see the record of the Premier League team, and even the coach of Manchester City knew it. So Mansour was particularly excited.

Tang Feng shook his head slightly and said: "Mansour, I can only say that he is a pseudo-fan, not a real fanatical fan, and my favorite team is not in the Premier League, but Italy, which has gradually declined." My favourite fan is Inter Milan, hehe, I'm a Nerazuri. ”

"Wow, it's a shame, I thought you were a Manchester City fan." Mansour said with a look of regret.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's mainly that when I was very young, the first time I watched a foreign football league was a Nerazzurri game, so I liked Inter since then, but unfortunately, the current Inter is really heartbreaking. Forget it, Mansour, let's not talk about Inter, we can talk about you Manchester City. ”

"Fantastic, Don, do you have any proposals for us at Manchester City next season? Although Manchester City is now considered a top team in the Premier League, but in the Champions League, we have stopped in the round of 16 for several years, although we reached the semi-finals this year, but unfortunately lost to Real Madrid, so our main goal next season is the Champions League, on the premise of ensuring a strong contender for the Premier League title, we have to go further in the Champions League! Mansour is particularly excited when it comes to football, and when it comes to City's goals for next season, the 46-year-old is even more ambitious.

"Mansour, I have to say that your goal is very great, but I believe that you and your Manchester City can achieve it! If I have any advice, it's very simple: you have to trust Pellegrini and give the Chilean engineer enough trust and time. Manuel Pellegrini is a very good coach and I think he is better than Mancini. If Mancini is the great general who started the Manchester City dynasty, then Pellegrini is a king who can lead the Manchester City dynasty to last. So, even if there is a temporary slump, don't rush to put all the blame on Pellegrini, a technical coach like him needs enough time to adjust his team! ”

Mansour smiled and gave Tang Feng a thumbs up, and said: "Don, your thoughts really coincide with mine, in fact, I am also very optimistic about Pellegrini, otherwise I would not let him replace Mancini in 13 years." Hearing you say that now, my confidence in Pellegrini is even stronger! ”

After a pause, Mansour suddenly said, "Don, why don't you buy a team in the Premier League to play?" Or simply buy Inter, I believe that if the now troubled Inter is bought by you, it will definitely regain its style back then! (To be continued.) )
