In the morning, a flight from London slowly landed at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport.

Not long after, Yang Yang, who was dressed in civilian clothes, and Mino Raiola, who had a big belly, appeared at the exit of the airport and were quickly recognized by the Liverpool fans at the scene.

"Hey Yang, welcome to Liverpool!"

"Welcome to Liverpool!"

"You're fantastic, Yang, please score more goals for us!"

"I'll be at home to cheer you on this season, Young!"

"Hey, come on, Young, here you will be the best player in the Premier League and in Europe!"

……

Yang Yang clasped his hands together and kept questioning the fans, always with a smile full of affinity on his face.

And for the fans' requests for autographs, he also refused.

But the number of fans at the scene grew, and even media reporters began to hear the news, which made Raiola and Liverpool staff member George Owen, who came to pick up the airport, feel that they could not continue like this.

Yang Yang has to go to the club for a medical this morning and then go to Anfield for a press conference and sign his contract, so he has to hurry up before that.

After being reminded by Raiola and George Irving, Yang Yang had to apologize to the fans repeatedly.

In the end, under the protection of the airport's security personnel, he left the airport and took a car to the hospital.

As soon as he got in the car, Yang Yang called Su Ye, who was far away in London, telling her that he had arrived and reassuring her.

A little later, Su Ye will also fly from London to Liverpool.

The school will not open until September, and Su Ye will not return until the end of August, and she will stay in Liverpool to accompany Yang Yang during this time, mainly renting a house and handling some life affairs, such as hiring a reliable full-time housekeeper.

After renting the house, Yang Yang's luggage and the Porsche Cayenne stored at Almere's uncle's house can be consigned to Liverpool, and he will officially start his Liverpool career.

After hanging up the phone, Raiola smiled and patted Yang Yang's shoulder, "In the next period of time, with Su Ye with you, I will rest assured, I will have to take care of Zlatan later." ”

Yang Yang nodded, "Greet Zlatan for me and tell him that if there is anything you need my help with, just ask." ”

"I will."

Juventus have announced relegation, and the players in the Old Lady team are scrambling to leave, especially young players like Ibrahimovic, where are they willing to accompany Juventus to the second division?

Although the club promised to be promoted in a year's time, God knows if it will happen?

Besides, playing in the second division in the year of play is unacceptable to any rising professional.

But it is not easy to convince Juventus to release him.

Yang Yang had a phone call with Ibrahimovic before, and the Swedish center revealed that Juventus did not plan to release him, but hoped to retain or even offer a more lucrative contract extension.

"That's bullshit, the renewal was originally meant to be given to me, but now it's being used to keep me, without any sincerity, and I can't see any integrity, I'm about to go crazy!" Ibrahimovic was agitated on the phone.

This will probably be a lifetime for him, and who is not anxious?

For Juventus, it doesn't make much difference whether it's a year or two years of promotion, but for a professional player, the meaning is completely different, especially for a player of Ibrahimovic's age.

George Owen took Yang Yang to a hospital in cooperation with Liverpool for a medical examination.

Team doctors such as Mark Waller and Rob Price were waiting in the hospital, and they cooperated with the hospital to conduct a comprehensive and detailed examination of Yang Yang.

The final conclusions are also very satisfactory.

"It seems that during this period of time, even if it is a holiday, you have not relaxed your training, and it is as rumored." Mark Waller looked at the medical report and said with a smile.

Liverpool signed several players this summer, but among them, Yang Yang's physical examination report was the most eye-catching, and even Kuyt, who didn't play much during the World Cup, couldn't compare.

It is the name of the so-called man, the shadow of the tree.

Yang Yang was able to quickly improve himself at Ajax and become a hot first-line star in European football in just three years after his debut, which is definitely not in vain.

To get from the hospital to Anfield, you have to go through Goodson Park.

Interestingly, the home stadium of these two rivals is only 750 meters in a straight line.

Walking onto Anfield Road and entering the Anfield Stadium from the Shankly Gate, George Owen told Yang Yang that the famous Hillsborough Monument was right next to the Shankly Gate.

Yang Yang naturally knew about the Hillsborough tragedy, but this was caused by negligence, and at the same time caused Liverpool to fall sharply from the top of Europe, and so far has not been able to get involved in the tragedy of the league championship, so far there is no explanation.

The car pulled up at the Anfield Stadium office and George Owen went straight into the office with Yang Yang and Raiola.

The club's chief executive, Rick Parry, and head coach Rafael Benitez were waiting for him in one of the conference rooms.

When Yang Yang arrived, he and the lawyer entrusted by Raiola had further confirmed the contract, made sure that there was no problem, and handed Yang Yang a pen, and Yang Yang did not suspect him, and signed his name on it.

From now on, he no longer belongs to Ajax, but to Liverpool.

Under the contract, Yang Yang's current weekly salary is £120,000, but this is before tax, and the club will pay him 45% of the income tax each month while paying his salary and bonuses.

In addition, whether it is the goal bonus, the championship bonus, and the individual honor bonus, there has been a very significant increase.

In addition, there is a clause in the contract, that is, if Yang Yang wins the Champions League or league championship for Liverpool, or gets any world-class individual honors, he has the right to ask the club for a salary increase to renew his contract.

It can be said that this is a very sincere contract, but behind this contract, Adidas also contributed a lot.

However, it is a pity that Yang Yang's portrait rights still belong to him fully, but because Adidas is also a sponsor of Liverpool, Yang Yang's portrait rights can also be appropriately used in some publicity and marketing, but you need to pay for it.

As for what is going on, it is too complicated to say, and Yang Yang himself can't figure it out, Raiola will be responsible.

The contract lasts for five years, not counting renewals, and after expiration, Yang Yang will be twenty-four years old.

After Yang Yang signed his name, head coach Raiola took the initiative to stand up and shake hands with Yang Yang.

"Welcome to Liverpool!"

Yang Yang also quickly stood up and shook hands with Benitez.

But when he saw the Spaniard, he was somewhat surprised to find that Benitez actually smiled.

That evening in Beijing, he had a long conversation with the Spaniards, but he never saw Benitez's smile the whole time.

But now he was laughing.

Tie Shuai, who has always been known for not smiling, actually smiled, which really surprised Yang Yang, and at the same time was a little weird.

He could vaguely sense that Benitez was not as cold as the outside world had rumored.

A cold and heartless man can't bring out a passionate Liverpool, even if Gerrard mentions Paco Jesterdam.

Perhaps, he put all his passion into football!

One of the things that makes England very different from other European leagues is that the teams here never go out of their way to press conferences to recommend their new signings.

'Normally we would have signed our players quietly, even in a near-secret way, but you're worth 40 million euros and your transfer has attracted the attention of fans all over the world, and there are so many fans in Liverpool who are looking forward to you, so we have to make you public today at Anfield.'

Benitez led Yang Yang to the locker room, explaining as he went.

Yang Yang is mentally prepared.

According to what he learned, when other players, including Xavi Alonso and others, signed the contract, they just came in civilian clothes, changed into a Liverpool shirt, held a Liverpool scarf, let the club's photographer take pictures, and then forwarded it to the media around the world, the whole process was very low-key and confidential.

But Yang's process is markedly different.

He was first taken to the home dressing room by Rafael Benitez.

Anfield's dressing room isn't spacious, even smaller than Ajax's home team's dressing room, and the walls are covered with photos from the Shankly era, which represents, in Benitez's words, a heritage of the club's culture.

"In the future, in this city, this team, you will hear the name Shankly a lot, you will know that this is the team that values cultural heritage in the world, and the essence of Liverpool's culture is in the place where you are standing now."

Yang Yang looked at this simple, even somewhat crowded dressing room, and his eyes were a little more respectful.

As a Chinese, he has a unique sense of identity with cultural heritage.

"I've been here for two years, but I still haven't been able to fully enter their hearts, but that's my goal." Benitez said with emotion.

And here they are clearly not just Liverpool fans and players, but also others.

Yang Yang changed into the new season shirt prepared for him by Liverpool, with his name printed on the back, as well as his number in Liverpool, which is the same as Ajax, which is the number 11.

The red jersey and the white Carlsberg advertisement on the chest are very similar to the jersey of the Chinese national team, and Yang Yang has a sense of intimacy.

As Benitez left the dressing room and walked down the players' tunnel towards the Anfield stadium.

At the top of the entrance to the passage is a prominent red image of Liverpool's crest and a quote from Shankly.

"This is Anfield!"

Benitez motioned for Yang Yang to join him, put his hands on the sentence, and let the club's photographer take pictures.

Shankly put that sentence here to remind everyone who is about to walk onto the pitch that they know they are about to step onto the most amazing and greatest stage in the world.

Yang Yang felt a sense of heaviness.

It was the first time he had walked into Anfield and he had already felt the difference in this club.
