For a long time after that, people had different opinions about the transfer records of young players under the age of 20, some thought it was Liu Ting's 28 million pounds, and some thought it was Rooney's 39.5 million euros.

It wasn't until this record was broken when Manchester United bought Luke Shaw that no one argued, and if it was not the first, what else was there to fight for?

At noon the next day, the Champions League group stage draw ceremony arrived, and Liu Ting went directly to the Monte Carlo Grand Hotel to meet Liverpool's people.

In the hotel, Liu Ting met Liverpool's head coach Joseph Heynckes, an old German man who looked very energetic.

"Hello, boss." Liu Ting took the initiative to talk to Einckes, in the Premier League, the head coach is generally called boss or manager (manager), because the Premier League team is used to let the head coach also serve as the team manager, so that the head coach can have more rights.

Liverpool, of course, won't let Heynckes double as manager.

"Hello, Liu, I'm glad you joined."

Heynckes had long known that Liu Ting was going to join Liverpool, but this was the first time they had met.

"Stephen, Fernando, it's a pleasure to meet you, and I hope to take care of you in the future."

Liu Ting greeted Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres, who came with Heynckes, Gerrard was selected as the best midfielder last season, and Torres was selected as the best striker, but everyone knows that the two of them are familiar with each other, and it is impossible to win the award.

"Welcome to Liverpool." Gerrard and Torres naturally greeted Liu Ting.

Everyone only thinks that Liu Ting is an ordinary player, and no one knows his relationship with the Liverpool owner, except for the new CEO of Liverpool on the side.

The awards were won by the two teams in the Champions League final, with Cech winning the best goalkeeper, John Terry the best defender, Frank Lampard the best midfielder, Cristiano Ronaldo the best striker, and Cristiano Ronaldo the best player.

Cristiano Ronaldo has almost won this year's World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or, helping Manchester United win the Premier League and Champions League, while winning the Premier League Golden Boot with 31 goals and the Champions League Golden Boot with seven goals.

Liverpool is the fourth in the Premier League this season, through the Champions League qualifying round to qualify, Liverpool's opponent is Belgium's standard Liege, Liverpool was forced to draw 0:0 in 180 minutes, and only Kuyt scored a goal in the last minute of extra time to kill the opponent, which also made the new coach Heynckes have some doubts.

In the end, Liverpool was assigned to D as the first pot, and the second to fourth pots of the same group include PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie, Marseille in Ligue 1, and Atletico Madrid in La Liga.

It's not a friendly group, PSV Eindhoven are Champions League regulars and have regularly reached knockout rounds.

Marseille, as a strong team in Ligue 1, was in a group with Liverpool last season, and Liverpool lost 0:1 to Marseille at home, but fortunately defeated Marseille 4:0 away in the last round to advance to the knockout round.

Atletico Madrid has not played in Europe for many years before they are in Pot 4, but they are definitely the most difficult team in Pot 4, Atletico Madrid were fourth in La Liga last season, and Liverpool could capsize in this group if they are not careful.

The group came out and the broadcast camera kept looking for Torres, who was born in the Atletico Madrid academy and moved to Liverpool last summer, which will be the first time Torres has faced his old club since leaving Atletico Madrid.

UEFA just likes to create such gimmicks.

Although Liu Ting's old club Bordeaux won the League Cup last season and accumulated a lot of European points, because there was no European accumulation every year, it was still assigned to the third pot.

Bordeaux is in a group with Chelsea in the Premier League, Roma in Serie A and Cluj in Romania. To be honest, Bordeaux's chances of qualifying are very small, Chelsea and Roma are much stronger than Bordeaux, if Liu Ting is still there, maybe he can fight for it.

The Champions League draw is over, the national team break day is coming for half a month, and the players from the major giants have gone to the World Cup qualifiers.

Liu Ting has to go to Liverpool to complete the transfer routine, medical examination, signing, and meeting fans.

Gerrard and Torres went directly to the national team to train and prepare, and Liu Ting and Heynckes returned to Liverpool together.

Coming out of Liverpool's John Lennon Airport, there were many fans on both sides of the aisle to greet him, which made Liu Ting very happy.

Suddenly, two fans on the sidelines rushed over to ask for autographs, and they also held signs that said 'Manchester United', and it seemed that the Super Cup win over Manchester United won the favor of many Liverpool fans.

These two fans also look a little funny, one is tall and afraid to exceed 1.9 meters, but he is very thin like a rib, and Liverpool's jersey is like a clothes pole on his body; One is short and only 1.7 meters, but he is very fat, and the Liverpool shirt is about to be torn.

The thin heads of the two are also slender, and the fat heads are round like a big basketball on their heads, and they look strange enough.

Seeing that the two fans seemed to want to sign autographs, so that the airport security was about to stop them, Liu Ting said directly: "Let them come over, there will be no problem." ”

When the security guard saw Liu Ting's agreement, he let them over.

As soon as the two arrived in front of Liu Ting, they kept chanting: "Chinese boy, you did a good job playing Manchester United!" "You have to score a hat-trick next time Anfield plays Manchester United", "You only need to score a hat-trick every year against Manchester United, and Liverpool will keep you with a high salary if you don't score any other time".

The two talked as they asked Liu Ting to sign their jerseys, the tall and thin one wearing Torres' No. 9 jersey and the short and fat wearing Gerrard's No. 8 jersey, Liu Ting smiled and signed their clothes.

The two also said: "We got Liu Liu's first signature in Liverpool".

"Yours is the second, and I am the first."

"No, you must be mistaken, I'm the first."

Liu Ting's jersey will not go on sale until after the signing is completed today, and they can only get other jerseys for autographs.

Bidding farewell to the two wonderful fans, Liu Ting first went to the University of Liverpool Hospital for a physical examination, and there was no problem to pass the test easily.

Then I went back to the Liverpool club office to sign and perfect the contracts, which had already been seen by the agent, no problem, just to show the press and media.

Liu Ting signed a four-year contract with Liverpool, with a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds, as well as various bonus goal awards, etc., and a signing fee of 4 million pounds.

Liu Ting's relationship with Liverpool FC also didn't know that everything was business.

The salary of the Premier League team is calculated on a weekly basis, which is paid once a week, and does not want to be paid once a month in other leagues.

The weekly salary is 80,000 yuan, 52 weeks a year, which is an annual salary of 4.16 million pounds, which is about 5.4 million euros when converted into euros. No matter where a player is paid during the holidays or injured, no one can rely on it.

The highest-paid Liverpool team is captain Steven Gerrard, with a weekly salary of £120,000; This was followed by Torres' £100,000.

Liu Ting, Xavi Alonso, and Robbie Keane, who just turned around at Tottenham, are considered to be the third level in the team.

After the signing was completed, Liu Ting wanted to go to Anfield to meet the fans to show his skills.

The 54,000-seat Anfield Stadium has about 40,000 people on site, and Liu Ting has become the biggest signing in Liverpool's history, slightly higher than Fernando Torres last summer, which is what attracts fans.

Liu Ting showed off his No. 25 jersey and then put on a show.

Liu Ting gently scooped up the ball, and continued to juggle the ball, and with Liu Ting's juggling of the ball, the fans who came to the scene also counted together......

1，2，3，4…… 20，21，22……

It was up to 25 times, and Liu Ting directly volleyed the ball into the goal.

The fans at the scene were very satisfied with Liu Ting's praise, mainly because he beat Manchester United with a hat-trick in the UEFA Super Cup, which left a good impression on Liverpool fans.

The next step is to interact with selected fans from some clubs, sign autographs, and take young fans to play football.

I met the fans, and it was the last press conference to meet the reporters.

Journalists in England have long been waiting for Liu Ting.

At the beginning of the press conference, a reporter stood up: "Mr. Liu, you set a historical transfer record for Liverpool to join Liverpool, and the transfer fee is even higher than Torres last summer, do you think you can have Torres' performance last season?" ”

'Fernando [Torres] is a world-class striker, the transfer fee doesn't tell the whole story, I came to Liverpool to help Liverpool win the title and I can make some sacrifices for the team's tactics.

Now Torres is Liverpool's leading star, and he is so popular that he doesn't want it, if Liu Ting says anything bad, he will turn around and Liverpool fans will come to him for trouble.

Another reporter asked: "Then are you confident that you can compete with Robbie Keane for the main position?" ”

'Robbie is also a good player, but the main position depends on the manager's arrangement and I have confidence in myself.

Liu Ting clearly knows that Robbie Keane is completely a parallel import, and he will be sold in winter, so he is naturally confident.

The reason why Liu Ting knew that Robbie Keane was a parallel import and agreed to Liverpool to introduce him, flowers need green leaves, how can you see your value for money without his parallel imports?

Isn't it too dark?

After solving these reporters, Liu Ting can go to meet the new CEO of Liverpool.

Liverpool changed blood in the summer, and the CEO was replaced by an Asian, but everyone also took it for granted, the Chinese bought the team, and it is normal to change the Chinese CEO.

Manchester City was bought by the Arabs, the CEO was replaced by the Arabs, and everyone played like this.
