Signing, drawing, exchanging contracts, shaking hands.

Within ten minutes of those steps, an announcement was made on City's official website, and within half an hour, City fans saw Sky Sports news on their televisions.

In fact, Sky Sports is not the media that reacts the fastest in this matter, the BBC, that is, the BBC, because just when Lin Sen and Mendes walked out of the city stadium, a female reporter with a BBC logo microphone and a camera attendant walked quickly in front of him, looking like a rabbit, so that the slightly stunned Lin Sen couldn't help but glance at Mendes next to him with the corner of his eye, needless to say, this is Mendes's masterpiece again.

The female reporter is about forty years old, in one word to describe the charm is still there, she looks very capable in a professional suit, it is the smell of perfume that makes Lin Sen frown, God knows what her relationship with Mendes is, but Mendes did not help him stop, although Lin Sen has always treated the media in his own way when he was in Spain, but at this time he didn't want to get into trouble with the media at the beginning, so he had to put on a smile and "gladly" accept the interview.

The female reporter named Carolyn Payton was really "arranged", when interviewing Lin Sen, there was no sense of urgency to ask all the questions in one breath when she finally blocked the interview subject, and she didn't have many questions unhurriedly, nothing more than to ask Lin Sen if he had signed a contract with Manchester City, what could he reveal about the contract, and what plans he had for the upcoming transfer, after Lin Sen answered, She didn't continue to pester, and she even wished Linsen a good start in England.

"Your acquaintance?" As soon as he got in the car, Lin Sen asked Mendes.

"I've dealt with it a few times." Mendes did not deny it, saying, "She is a reporter for BBC Channel 5, and you will often meet her in the future, she is a very measured reporter." ”

"I can see it." Lin Sen nodded.

Mendes doesn't mention anything else, only the word proportion, how can Lin Sen, who has been in Europe for so many years, not know that the biggest "notoriety" of the British tabloid is not knowing proportion. Previously, Mendes's two most important clients were in the Premier League, and it is not surprising that Mendes has his own network in England, and the agent is a profession that relies on interpersonal relationships, similar to Mendes and Caroline's partnership, I am afraid that every agent will have more or less, and the agent provides news and reporters to help publicize, and the relationship between the two interests.

"I'll take you to the apartment, and the rest is up to you." Mendez started the car and said, "If you need my help, you're welcome." I'll be in Manchester for the next few days, and I'll probably need to go to Madrid in a few days. ”

Lin Sen snorted, Mendes didn't say anything, but he knew that the departure of one of the city's biggest superstars was a foregone conclusion when he came to the city.

Having said that, after Lin Sen signed a contract with Manchester City, Mendes never asked Lin Sen about his and Mubarak's discussion from beginning to end, Lin Sen knew that Mendes might be avoiding suspicion, but in fact it was unnecessary, Lin Sen didn't know if Mendes would sell his players to him in the future, but obviously, Lin Sen did not intend to avoid this relationship, because in Lin Sen's view, as long as it is not a parallel import, who likes to chew the root of his tongue, there will naturally be a day when he really bites his tongue. If you don't break the law, why should you avoid it?

Thinking of this, Lin Sen subconsciously touched the two keys that were in his pocket at this time.

One is the key to the apartment and the other is the car key. This is something that Mubarak personally handed over to Linsen after the signing, and to put it bluntly, it is a benefit for the head coach.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When it was still a scandal, not everyone except the media and Manchester City fans would care about who Manchester City's new manager was, which was related to Manchester City's poor results in the past two seasons. After Thaksin arrived at Manchester City, the entire Premier League exclaimed "the wolf is here again", and the reason why it is again is because there has already been one, and that wolf is called Abramovich. But soon everyone learned that not all those with sharp teeth and drooling are wolves.

Therefore, when the news of Linsen's signing of Manchester City became known to the world, compared with the media that was eager to change the coach every day, the entire Premier League was not mediocre, but it was far less sensational than imagined.

On the Manchester City side, the reporter did not find Robinho, the number one star who is on holiday in Brazil, but captain Richard Dunn's statement should be regarded as a representative voice in the current Manchester City team: I have not met Lin Jin for the time being, but I believe in the club's choice. The head of a Manchester City fan organization told a reporter from the Manchester Evening News: "Manchester City fans will give Lin Sen time to prove himself, just as they did with another Chinese Sun Jihai, and they hope that Lin Sen can engrave his name into Manchester City's history like Sun Jihai." ”

Also in the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson was not so polite when asked what he thought of Linson: "Lin? Who's that? Sorry, I only care about Manchester United. ”

The old man naturally can't really not know who Lin Sen is, but since he is already an opponent, he naturally doesn't need to be polite, anyway, he doesn't care what the head coach of his sworn enemy will think of his words, because from the moment Lin Sen became the head coach of Manchester City, the two were destined to fight in the ring.

After Ferguson, the managers of several other giants in the Premier League have also received questions from reporters about Linsen without exception.

Arsene Wenger: He's done well in Malaga, but the Premier League isn't La Liga, good luck to him.

Benitez: I don't know him well, so it's not convenient for me to make any comments.

Carlo Ancelotti: Can we talk about something more important?

……

in Spain.

Former Malaga president Junior Sans, who was interviewed by the newspaper Liberty, spoke for a long time in front of reporters after knowing that Linson had signed for Manchester City, and then he said: Lin is a great coach, Manchester City fans will love him, and I wish him a smooth experience in England.

At the same time that Manchester City announced Linson as the new manager, a major event also happened in Malaga: the club officially announced a change of ownership. The old Sans, who lost to Florentino again, was disheartened, and did not sell only part of the shares to Villalonga as previously planned, retaining the dominant position of the Sans family in Malaga, but directly transferred all the shares to Villalonga, completely withdrew from Málaga, and also completely withdrew from football, and Villalonga also became the new president of Malaga.

Unaware that his familiar history had changed, Linson, who was still in Manchester at the time, was visiting Manchester City's Carrington training base in the company of his 'transfer partner' Brian Haywood.

Yes, it is Carrington, the same name as the famous Manchester United training base, of course, not because the two clubs even have to fight for this, but because the training bases of Manchester City and Manchester United are in Carrington District, and they are very close, about this Sun Jihai, who used to play for Manchester City, talked about an interesting story: once in training, he kicked the ball off with a big foot, accidentally kicked the ball away, and disappeared, but the manager at the time, Keegan, yelled angrily and asked him to go to Manchester United to pick up the ball.

When it comes to the Carrington training base, people immediately think of dense woods, curved buildings, wide grassy areas, quiet paths, in short, it is an idyllic scene, however, I am afraid no one would have thought that a few decades ago, this area was still Manchester's famous chemical area, but in recent decades, in order to protect the local natural ecological environment, the local government closed some old factories, so that it has become what it is now.

Although it is only adjacent to Manchester United's training base, whether it is hardware or software, the current Manchester City is actually unable to compare with their neighbors for the time being, this situation has only improved in the past two seasons with the arrival of the new owner, but obviously this situation will not last long, because in a few years, Manchester City will say goodbye to Carrington, their new training base will be adjacent to the current City Stadium, which also provides convenience for their future home games, Unlike Manchester United, which only takes about 20 minutes to drive from the training base to Old Trafford, Manchester City's home stadium is in the eastern part of Manchester, and from the Carrington training base to the city stadium, almost the whole of Manchester City is crossed.

Although it can't catch up with Manchester United next door, Lin Sen is still very satisfied, the treatment is a comparison, compared to Malaga, which does not even have an independent training base, Manchester City is obviously a lot better. Of course, while visiting the Carrington training base, Lin Sen was also observing his "companion", and he also knew that the other party must also be observing him.

Brian Marwood, who used to play for Arsenal, is forty-nine years old this year, and it is very appropriate to describe him without smiling, anyway, Lin Sen was taken by him to sneak around the training base, Lin Sen didn't see much smile on his face, I don't know if it was because he already knew that he had just given up half of the rights to Lin Sen in a blink of an eye. In any case, during the visit, the two tacitly did not mention the transfer for the time being.

The reason why it is temporary, because as we all know, the summer transfer market opens on July 1, unlike other major European leagues, the new season of the Premier League will generally open in mid-August, so although the transfer market will not close until the last day of August, if you don't want new players to miss the important run-in period, then, the start and end of the transfer work is naturally as early as possible, especially for a team like Manchester City, whose main squad is destined to be replaced.

Due to the change of manager, Manchester City's transfer plan has been delayed again and again, so according to Manchester City's plan, Linsen must come up with his transfer plan within a week, decide on the transfer target before the summer transfer window officially opens, and then complete at least most of the transfer work by mid-July to ensure that the team's pre-season training plan can be carried out smoothly.

Therefore, for Lin Sen and Marwood, whether they disagree or not, the next week will be the most harmonious time between them.
