"Bevi Lun!"

David named the first club.

"As you know, this Belgian club is a satellite club in Notts County, in which I hold a 49% stake, and in the future Bevilen will be a shortcut for us to train our players and help them get EU passports and apply for labor certifications, so it is only natural to invite them to a warm-up match!"

Listening to David's words, Soriano and Loew nodded in agreement.

Although the League A can only be regarded as a second-rate league in Europe, it is also slightly stronger than the strength of the League One, such a warm-up game is more valuable for training, and Belgium also has a team participating in the League Cup, maybe there is a real possibility of meeting.

Loew said seriously: "According to our training plan and warm-up plan, from the time arrangement, 4-5 warm-up games are more appropriate, my opinion is that there should be a League One club and a Premier League club, as for the rest, it is best to change to a team with a different style of league!" ”

David nodded, he didn't know what Loew's considerations were, but as the coach of the team, he must have a comprehensive plan for the team, and he just needs to respect Loew's professionalism at this point.

"Premier League clubs are not a problem, last week, Fulham sent an official fax inviting us to play a warm-up game, Fulham qualified for the International Toto Cup this season, if it goes well, maybe they can also get the opportunity to participate in the League Cup, and playing against a Premier League team of this strength is also very meaningful to warm up, it can be regarded as a litmus test!" David pulled out a piece of paper from the folder, which was the official Fulham document he had gotten.

After a season of astonishment, Notts County's status in English football has changed dramatically, you know, at the beginning of last season, when David contacted the warm-up opponents, there was no Premier League team interested, and a season later, it has become a Premier League club to contact Notts County, which is really incomparable.

It's normal for Premier League clubs to play a League One club in a warm-up match, especially as Notts County is an extraordinary League One team.

Who has ever seen a team in the English Premier League in League Two, and even a giant Arsenal to lift the League Cup trophy all the way?

Even in the eyes of many clubs, the League Cup title is a chicken rib title, but it is also very valuable, such a League One promoted team, it is really worth a warm-up game for them.

"I also want to contact La Liga club Real Sociedad, La Liga has always had good results in European competitions, so if we want to make a difference, we need to know a little bit about La Liga teams."

David took a sip of water, moistened his throat, and continued: "We dealt with Xavi Alonso when we bought them, and I believe they should still give this face, and it's a big deal that we give them some appearance fees." ”

Loew's mind was spinning, and he kept recalling his impressions of Real Sociedad.

Last season, Real Sociedad ranked 13th in the La Liga standings, not a traditional powerhouse, but the style is full of Spanish style, even if there are no star players in the team, but the strength should not be underestimated, if it is not for the captain Alonso transferred away from the team, maybe Real Sociedad's results will be improved.

That's most of Loew's impression of Real Sociedad.

However, what he didn't know was that next season was a season for Real Sociedad to rise, in David's previous life, in the 02-03 season, Alonso led Real Sociedad to break through in the league, once firmly occupying the top position in the standings, if it wasn't for the continuous misjudgment and conceded goals at the last moment, so it was reversed by Real Madrid, maybe Real Sociedad would be able to beat several traditional giants to win the La Liga championship trophy.

Of course, now that Alonso has arrived at Notts County, Real Sociedad have lost their biggest star and may not have achieved such dazzling results in their previous life, but the team as a whole is still there, and it is not a big problem to finish at the top of the table this season.

David and Loew have basically reached an agreement, and as for the League One opponents, it is not a big problem to choose anyone.

"My Lord CEO, I'm afraid I'm going to bother you again about contacting these warm-up opponents!" David smiled wickedly and said to Soriano, who was in the presence of the old god.

Loew was also snickering.

Soriano smiled bitterly and shook his head, originally thought that he would be able to relax a little, but he didn't expect that the matter of contacting the warm-up opponent would fall on his head again, and he really didn't know what to say to vent his depressed emotions.

"You, sooner or later, one day you will tire me to death, and you will be happy!" Soriano sighed and said with a smile.

After a burst of laughter, David brought the topic back to business.

"Let's take a look at the club's goals for this season!"

Loew and Soriano looked straight, this is a key priority, and there is no room for sloppiness.

"Needless to say, the league is definitely the main thing, and we are only aiming for promotion, and it is a direct promotion, not the promotion play-off qualification that could be unexpected and frequent."

David said loudly, this point didn't even need to be explained, but David still solemnly mentioned it.

Loew and Soriano nodded in unison, even if David didn't say it, they knew it.

"On the basis of pursuing direct promotion, I want Notts County to go further in the UEFA Cup, which is the second European competition after the European Champions Cup, which can also be affected by the fans throughout Europe, and is the best stage to raise the image of our Notts County club, if possible, I hope we can reach the final and even lift the trophy!"

Unlike anyone, David knows that this year's League Cup is an extremely civilian League Cup, the two clubs that advanced to the final are Porto in the Portuguese Super League and Celtic in the Soviet Super League, Liverpool and Lazio stopped in the semi-finals, and there are not even so-called traditional giants in the other 32.

This is the perfect time for Notts County to storm the UEFA Cup.

With the expansion of the Champions League and the League Cup after the restructuring of the Europa League, the influence of the Europa League has gradually declined, and it will not be favored by the continental giants, and even David himself does not think much of this title.

If Notts County can successfully make it to the Premier League this season, then the focus next season will definitely be to compete for the league title, and it will not be easy to be distracted by other competitions, even if Notts County can still qualify for the UEFA Cup this season, Notts County will not focus on this competition.

So, this season is the perfect time for Notts County to lift the UEFA Cup.
