Chapter 123: The Revelation of Dreams

On the plane, David felt a little tired, and he didn't know if it was physical or psychological, so he quickly fell asleep in his seat.

……

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman, I don't see any hope in Notts County, so I'm leaving!"

With tears in his eyes, Morata said sadly and firmly in front of David, his voice choked with inseparable emotion.

……

David woke up suddenly, looked around blankly, only to find that he was still on the plane.

It turned out to be just a dream!

Touching his head, he felt a cold sweat, although it was just a dream, it still made David feel very real, and what made David even more inexplicably panicked was that Morata was not what he saw when he was a child yesterday, but what he looked like when he was 20 years old in his previous life.

Why did you have this dream for no reason?

David felt something in his heart, as if there was something in the dark reminding him!

Sitting quietly in his plane seat, David fell into deep thought.

Was your previous thinking wrong?

When he decided to build a new large-scale youth academy, an idea came to his mind, that is, to dig up the future superstars he knew well, except for those who could not be mined for various reasons, and the rest to the youth academy in Notts County.

High-level junior players who get together and compete with each other may improve faster, even to heights that David did not have in his previous life.

Notts County singled out the best to enter the first team to become Notts County's official players, under the trade-off, those players who did not get a chance in Notts County will naturally look for a home, and bring Notts County a considerable transfer income, if this income continues to invest in the academy, then Notts County's youth training will enter a virtuous circle, without the need for the club's blood transfusion, and even be able to feed back to the club.

He thought it was a very practical approach that would be good for Notts County and the young players, so he followed the plan in Spain, bringing as many future stars as he knew he could to Notts County.

But this dream made him constantly reflect on whether he was right or wrong to do this!

Alvaro Morata, for example, entered the Notts County Academy at the age of 10, and if he grows well, he can enter the first team around the age of 18 or 20 to play for adults.

In the next 10 years or so, how much will the players feel at home to Notts County? How much of a relationship will you have with the players?

How much does it hurt a player who wants to play for Notts County if he doesn't get a chance and has to leave for another club?

How many reluctant feelings will you have?

Man is a rational animal, but also an emotional animal!

The tears of Morata in the dream just now made David's heart twist like a knife, and he couldn't bear the pain, as if the child he had worked so hard to raise would one day stay away from him and never come back, and it had nothing to do with this family, who could bear this feeling indifferently!

If Notts County's academy really works according to its own vision, then the number of players who will have no choice but to leave every year is definitely not a small number.

David considered himself not a competent person or a qualified businessman.

If the business is profitable, then David can not hesitate, but the player trade is not a pure business, which involves more personal emotions, where can it be cold!

After being in a daze for a long time, when the plane landed in Germany, David regained his clarity.

He changed his mind, or rather he gave up on his original idea of the Notts County Academy, and at least for now, he needs to make a big change.

Rather than bringing every familiar star to Notts County, David decided to select only the top stars who are the most prominent and likely to join Notts County, and preferably by age group, so that these future top stars can stay in Notts County.

With this principle in mind, David took Ozil, Reuss, Kroos, and Gotze from Germany.

Originally, David planned to take away all those players, but now he has only taken 4 players, which is already an extremely difficult choice he has made.

Neuer, Gundogan, Schurrle...... and dozens of future first-class stars, David repeatedly told himself that he kept these good players in Germany, but deep down, he still regretted it.

Similarly, he only took Kevin De Bruyne and Eden Hazard with two children in Belgium, and David still made a painful choice as for the group of players who were worth enough to rank in the top five in Europe.

However, David did not let the fertilizer water flow into the fields of outsiders.

Thibaut Courtois, Romelu Lukaku, Vertonghen, Dembele, Marouane Fellaini, Nainggolan, Benteke ............ David searched the Belgian squad almost and took them to Beveren, the Belgian club in which he owns 49%.

It is impossible for Bevelen's chairman, Peters, to realise that David has moved the future Belgian national team to Bevelen's academy, he only thought it was the result of the Notts County club's scouting of hopeful stars, and he was very happy that David, the second shareholder, could take Bevelen club to heart.

However, David told Peters that he must pay attention to the performance of this group of players in the academy, and whether Beveren can rise in the future depends on this group of players.

Of course, David is not without regrets, Belgian captain Kompany is about to play the main force in Anderlecht at this time, and if he doesn't pay enough real money, he will definitely not be able to persuade him to transfer, David is really unable to take into account Bevelen's results at present, and it is a bit unrealistic to let Peters pay a lot of money to buy people for the time being, so David can only be greedy for a while.

After a few days in Belgium, David went around several European football powers, and with infinite regrets and a few future superstars, David finally ended his journey to find future superstars.

Pogba, Griezmann, Anthony Martial, Alaba, Verratti, Lewandowski, Hamsik, ......, are undoubtedly not superstars worth more than 4000w euros in the future, this is still David reluctantly screened out, when he gave up many other first-class stars, it was really heartbroken.

But in any case, at least a large part of the superstars in the future have been brought back to Notts County by David, and there is still England itself, still outside of Europe, although David wants to complete the task in one go, but the World Cup is about to begin, as a hardcore fan, he is not willing to miss the quadrennial feast.
