Chapter 700: Premier League debut

On the morning of July 22, Lu Wenbin signed an equity transfer agreement with Vichai, under which Lu Wenbin bought a 30% stake in Leicester City at a price of 1 euro, with additional terms for the increase in equity, until Lu Wenbin's stake reached 49%.

At the same time, Lu Wenbin joined Leicester City in the English Premier League on a free transfer, signing a five-year contract with an annual salary of 30 million euros.

Before the press conference ended, some online media had broken the news that Lu Wenbin had confirmed to join Leicester City.

After the press conference, more detailed news began to swipe, and the media and fans around the world exploded.

"Lu Wenbin joins the Premier League promoted Malester City, and the Blue Fox uses 30% equity to get Lu Wenbin to join! 》

"Superstars are coming to Fox City, Leicester City is coming!" 》

"Will Lu Wenbin join Leicester City and lead the Blue Foxes to create a miracle of winning the championship again?" 》

"Kicking football and becoming a boss, Lu Wenbin was given a 30% stake in Leicester City, and he will fight for himself from now on!" 》

It was confirmed that Lu Wenbin would join the team and possibly continue to play at Fox City until he retired, and Leicester fans went crazy.

On July 23, the fan meeting held at Leicester City's home stadium, the Foxes, was completely full, and countless people were crying outside the stadium and couldn't get in.

Countless people held up banners or large portraits welcoming Lu Wenbin to express their warmest welcome to Lu Wenbin's arrival.

Lu Wenbin officially landed in the Premier League.

However, Lu Wenbin did not have time to practice with his teammates.

Because Kate is approaching her due date and will give birth at any time.

Vichai gave Lu Wenbin a villa on the outskirts of Leicester City, with a small training ground, a swimming pool, and security.

On July 29, 2014, Kate gave birth to a son in Leicester City, and Lu Wenbin named him Lu Ronghuan and became a father.

After spending a few days at home with his wife and children, Lu Wenbin finally came to the Leicester City training base to meet with his coaches and teammates to participate in the pre-season training camp and prepare for the new season of Premier League games.

With the addition of Lu Wenbin and becoming a shareholder of the team, there was no resistance from the Leicester City players, but everyone was elated.

Before Lu Wenbin joined, everyone was thinking about how to be relegated in the Premier League in the new season.

But now there is Lu Wenbin, who holds the record of winning the championship at club level as long as he participates, which makes everyone have a lot of reverie.

Even if it is to win a championship behind Lu Wenbin's fart, it is quite a happy thing.

It's both a boss and a world-class superstar, and it's predictable that he'll be at Leicester City for a long time.

Of course, Lu Wenbin became the first captain of Leicester City in the new season, and he was not opposed by anyone.

As a promoted horse, Leicester City's lineup is not strong, but the goalkeeper is the son of goalkeeper Schmeichel, referred to as Schmeichel Jr., who is not bad.

There are also midfielders Danny Drinkwater, strikers Riyad Mahrez, Jamie Vardy and so on, all of which are not bad.

Although it is far inferior to Lu Wenbin's teammates in Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, Lu Wenbin can't expect too much.

What more could a promoted polo team ask for?

What's more, Lu Wenbin is now a shareholder.

When he was a player in the past, Lu Wenbin wished that the club would bring in more powerful stars to enhance his strength.

But now that Lu Wenbin is a shareholder, if he wants to invest money, he also has a share, and he has to invest the same proportion of money according to the equity distribution.

Therefore, Lu Wenbin will not ask the club to bring in superstar players.

Anyway, his strength is there, and as long as the team configuration is passable, he can lead the team to achieve good results.

Of course, we don't bring in superstar players, but we still have to bring in a few powerful players.

Lu Wenbin's ambition is naturally to lead the team to win the Premier League championship in the first season, and then participate in the Champions League next season, win the treble, and then win the seven crowns of the year.

With the presence of Lu Wenbin, Leicester City's attraction to many lesser-known but powerful players has risen sharply.

Even if the club doesn't let them go, these players will be clamoring to leave the club and come to Leicester City.

Before the start of the Premier League, Leicester City successively introduced Shinji Okazaki, a member of the Japanese national team, and N'Golo Kante, a powerful young rookie in France.

Although the star squad is not as good as Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and other giants, the presence of Lu Wenbin alone is enough for the media to list Leicester City as one of the favorites to win the Premier League in the 2014/2015 season.

Schmeichel Jr., Vardy, and Mahrez, even if they are weak, are much better than the players of the Chinese team.

Lu Wenbin can lead the Chinese team to the fourth place in the World Cup, and it is not unattainable to lead Leicester City to win the Premier League title.

The system tasks are still those, so there is no need to repeat them, anyway, Lu Wenbin now has too many skill points to use up.

On 16 August 2014, the 2014/2015 Premier League season kicked off with Manchester United's home game against Swansea City.

Unexpectedly, the final result was a 1-2 defeat to Swansea City, which was a big surprise.

This also proves the difficulty of the Premier League.

In the afternoon, five Premier League games were played at the same time, including Lu Wenbin's Leicester City taking on Everton. Moreover, it is a home game.

When Lu Wenbin wore the No. 6 jersey and the captain's armband and led Leicester City's other 10 starters into the King Power Stadium, the crowd of more than 30,000 Blue Foxes fans all stood up and erupted in huge applause and cheers.

If there is no Lu Wenbin, this is a Premier League powerhouse against a promoted horse, and Everton will undoubtedly win a lot more, even if it is away.

But with Lu Wenbin's joining, it can't be explained.

The broadcaster even abandoned the Arsenal vs Crystal Palace conversation and broadcast Lu Wenbin's Premier League debut live to the world.

In this game, Schmeichel Jr. served as the starting goalkeeper, Lu Wenbin and N'Golo Kante partnered in the back, Shinji Okazaki, Riyad Mahrez and Drinkwater partnered in the central midfield, and Jamie Vardy played as a lone striker.

As players of the promoted polo team, N'Golo Kante, Riyad Mahrez, Vardy and others were a little uncomfortable at the beginning of the game, but under the defensive command of the experienced Lu Wenbin, Leicester City were not breached by Everton.

Vardy missed two solo chances before finally opening the scoring for the Foxes in the 32nd minute with a long ball from Lu Wenbin, giving Leicester a 1-0 lead over Everton.

The game is starting to get into the rhythm of Leicester City.

Lu Wenbin showed the Blue Foxes fans his charm as a world superstar, with two assists, a free kick, a quick counter-attacking goal that passed three people in a row, and a direct zero-degree goal from a corner.

Lu Wenbin's Premier League debut, he scored a hat trick + assists to score twice, leading Leicester City to a 5-1 victory over Everton, which plunged the whole Leicester City into madness.

Lu Wenbin's pace of conquering the Premier League has officially begun.

PS: I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I feel that I've been in a bad state lately, and it's not suitable to write. So today is the last day I wrote this year, and the last time I updated it, thank you for your companionship, support and encouragement along the way.
