On the plane to London, Lin Yu was still thinking about Di Stefano's words, that old man, it is likely that the flame of life is about to be extinguished, and it is not only a gift to be able to fulfill his wish before he dies, this is not only a gift, but also a task, a great mission.

When he arrived at the London airport, Lin Yu was still immersed in a chaotic mind, but to his surprise, when he walked out of the airport passage, he saw many Chelsea fans who might have hated him to the core.

These people came to greet him, just like the Dortmund fans did at the airport.

Although in terms of numbers, there are many fewer fans at the airport this time than Dortmund last time, but as an opponent in the Champions League final, it is a great joy to be able to come to the airport to greet him.

He shook his head and shook his chaotic thoughts away from the wind, since he was already in London, let's take this game seriously, Di Stefano's matter, and think about it after the game is over.

Lin Yu's arrival has once again made the Champions League final the focus of media attention, but the focus of this focus is still Lin Yu himself, and the other players of the two teams have received little attention, even David who used to be a Chelsea player. Luis, Azpilicueta, Callas, Gundogan, that together do not have as much attention as Lin Yu.

The media has been preaching that Lin Yu is here for revenge, because in the past, Lin Yu was driven away by the extreme fans here, and they wanted to create a tense atmosphere, and they didn't want to see the friendly appearance of these two teams.

But this conspiracy of the media was once again crushed by Lin Yu. Because Lin Yu, who had just arrived in London, received an invitation from Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich to have dinner at his manor in London.

Didn't the media say that Lin Yu was revenge. But Lin Yu accepted Abramovich's invitation in a high-profile manner.

He's going to tell the media that it's useless for you to do anything now. As long as it's not on the pitch, then my relationship with Chelsea is very good, and if you want to sow discord, it's useless.

Some media were not convinced, and said that the two went to discuss match-fixing, but this report was satirized and ridiculed as the thinking of a three-year-old child, Lin Yu has played football for so many years, has he played match-fixing once? Once this person is on the court, he will not recognize the six relatives, why did Abramovich let him play match-fixing?

Money?

You must know that Lin Yu's assets now are no less than those of Abramovich. Is he necessary?

What's more, this is the final, who will play match-fixing in the final, that's too unreliable.

……

Lin Yu appeared in Abramovich's manor later, and Abramovich invited him to come, of course, not for match-fixing, or even for football, but just to catch up with the past.

For Abramovich, Lin Yu used to be his player. It is the most successful player he has spent money to buy, and now Lin Yu is his business partner and his friend, through Lin Yu as a bridge. Abramovich's oil and gas flows to China are well known.

As Abramovich said in an interview with the media: "I just invited my friends to my estate for a cup of tea, can you media make such a fuss?"

Lin Yu met Abramovich. In fact, he also wanted to know why the Russian boss invited him, and he didn't believe it was just for a cup of tea.

'I remember when you first came to Chelsea. The meal I invited you to? The two sat facing each other, and on the table was high-end black tea. The maid stood at a distance, not daring to disturb the conversation between the two.

'Of course I remember it was the beginning of my success at Chelsea and the beginning of going from a star to a superstar. Lin Yu nodded.

"I heard you're retiring?" Abramovich finally got to the point.

Lin Yu hesitated, but nodded and said, "That's right, I'm going to retire after the end of this season." ”

"What is the reason? Because it's uncomfortable to stay at Real Madrid? I wonder if Chelsea have a chance to get you again? Abramovich asked.

Lin Yu finally understood Abramovich's true intentions, he shook his head and said: "I have made up my mind to retire, as for the reason, I can tell you, it is because I can no longer find an opponent in football, without an opponent, there is no goal, continue to play, it will just slowly go downhill, I just want to leave the best side of myself to the football world, to the fans who like me." ”

"Got it! Then I won't force it, but what will you do after you retire? ”

Seriously, Abramovich has been regretting it since the day he let Lin Yu go, especially when Lin Yu played better and better, he was about to regret it to death, he even thought that he shouldn't have been so generous in the first place, he should have tried everything to keep Lin Yu, and even did not hesitate to expel those extreme fans from Chelsea and not let them go to watch Chelsea's games.

Anyway, if a club has good results, there will be no shortage of fans to like.

But at that time, he was confused and did something that he thought was generous, but in fact he was extremely stupid. It's a pity that there will never be regret medicine to take in this world, although Abramovich regrets it very much in his heart, he can only watch Lin Yu win back one championship after another for Real Madrid.

And when he heard that Lin Yu might retire after the end of this season, his first thought was to talk to Lin Yu, or change Lin Yu's mind, or make other savings.

Now since it can't change Lin Yu's idea of wanting to retire, let's start from other aspects, after retiring, Lin Yu, even if it is just as an assistant coach, will be of great help to a team, and he is thinking like this now.

Lin Yu heard Abramovich's question and smiled: "That's right, I will definitely still engage in football after I retire." I'm afraid I've been inseparable from football all my life, you guessed it right. ”

"So I wonder if I can ask you to be a coach of Chelsea?"

"Head coach?"

"If you want. Of course you can. Abramovich nodded.

"You know, I'm not going to compete with my mentor." Lin Yu frowned slightly.

"You can rest assured of this. The reason why I wanted you to coach is because Jose is about to resign as Chelsea manager, and he is now older and wants to do something light, like head coach of the national team. He has always wanted to revive Portuguese football, but unfortunately he has tried a lot to no avail. Abramovich said.

"Oh, I see, friend, I think you should find the right manager sooner rather than later. I'm not suitable. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I won't be a coach after I retire, I prefer to be a boss who can control the whole situation. Coaches and players are buying through my hands, don't you think it's interesting, just like you. Lin Yu said with a smile.

"I see, I should have thought of it a long time ago, I don't know which club is so lucky to be so lucky that you have taken a fancy to?" Abramovich is now completely dead, he wants to poach Lin Yu to come over to play, but he failed, and he wants Lin Yu to come over as the head coach. also failed, it is impossible to let Lin Yu come over to be the boss, so what does he do?

"You'll find out when the season is over. When the time comes, we can still share our experience in this area. Lin Yu smiled and didn't answer directly.

"Well, although it's a pity. But it seems that I am destined to gain nothing today. Abramovich sighed, he was really a little lost.

"Okay, friend. I'm sure you'll find a better coach and I wish you success. Lin Yu patted Abramovich on the shoulder and said.

When I used to be a player. Although he was arrogant, he really hadn't thought about patting Abu on the shoulder, and now the two were obviously people who could sit on an equal footing, and of course he wouldn't be afraid of this kind of greeting between friends.

……

The two had dinner together, and although what Abramovich hoped for did not come to fruition, it did not affect the pleasant atmosphere of the meal, and both were happy.

After eating, Lin Yu's special car was already waiting outside, which was provided by his company in London, an extended version of the Cadillac sedan, all of which was made of bulletproof glass.

After all, personal safety is very important, Lin Yu is not just a player now.

"Let's go back, it's windy outside!" In London in May, the weather is still relatively cold, especially in the past few days, it has been raining, making the weather a bit of a winter rhythm.

"Lin Yu, I want to ask you one last question, have you ever liked the Chelsea team?"

Facing Abramovich's question, Lin Yu smiled and said, "You know! ”

He didn't answer directly, but Abramovich understood what Lin Yu meant, and that was enough.

Lin Yu got into the car, and the car drove towards the hotel where Real Madrid was staying in the wind.

Looking at the car in the distance, Abramovich showed a smile on his face, although he did a stupid thing and lost Lin Yu such a good player, but he also got a good friend who could be friends with him, what the gains and losses were, I really can't say.

……

Lin Yu had just arrived in London to have dinner with the Chelsea owner, which had a strong reaction in the media and even aroused suspicion among some Real Madrid fans.

"Is Lin Yu going back to Chelsea?"

"If he wins the Champions League this season, he will have almost no pursuit at Real Madrid and there is a real possibility that he will return to Chelsea."

"It must be yes, he has just passed his thirtieth birthday, it is impossible to retire, since he does not retire, then there must be something else, Abramovich will not invite others to dinner easily, there must be something wrong with this."

Now no one is discussing match-fixing, because everyone thinks it is impossible, but they are worried about the future direction of Lin Yu, whether to stay at Real Madrid or leave to join Chelsea?

This question is really hard to say, the media seems to have grabbed Lin Yu's tail all of a sudden, deliberately hyped up this matter, and tried to set off a storm.

However, Lin Yu was interviewed during a training session and told the world through a reporter he is familiar with: "I can't go back to Chelsea, although I love it there and my team-mates deeply, but I won't go back." ”

He was right, because he was retiring, but unfortunately others didn't know. (To be continued......)
