Mubarak did not expect that Lin Sen would come to him, let alone that Lin Sen would ask him for money.

In fact, as the president of the club, Mubarak did not consider adding transfer funds in the winter, this time last year, the club added 50 million transfer funds for Mark Hughes to recruit, but this year is a little different, not that Manchester City is out of money, but because Manchester City's investment this summer is much higher than last season, and as the head coach, Linsen has not proposed any transfer plans before.

Coupled with the team's good condition, the board naturally did not intend to add to it, but seeing that the winter transfer was about to enter the final day, Lin Sen spoke at this time.

Looking at Lin Sen, who was sitting opposite with a calm face, Mubarak smiled slightly in his heart, after experiencing the madness of summer transfers, not all managers dare to open this mouth at this time, let alone be so calm.

Now Manchester City is rich, very rich, so rich that many people think that Mansour bought Manchester City at that time and it was just for fun. However, as Mansour's friend and collaborator, Mubarak knew that this statement was completely groundless, otherwise, Mansour should be the chairman himself, rather than leaving it to him to be in charge.

Manchester City, as a very important investment project of the Abu Dhabi Group, is naturally not aimed at losing money. Manchester City's ultimate goal is to make a profit, and for this goal, Mubarak has designed a grand plan for Manchester City, of course, Rome City is not built in a day, so this plan needs to be implemented in stages. Although every step of Manchester City, in the eyes of the outside world, is still so big.

Mubarak doesn't mind the perception of the outside world, just like Abu Dhabi. When they built the same city just two hours away from Dubai, everyone questioned whether they needed it, but they didn't hesitate. Manchester City and Abu Dhabi, not the same thing, but the same model, so even if Manchester City's investment in the transfer market last year was not proportional to its results, Manchester City will continue to invest this year, and it will be the same next year, because it is planned. Also because this is just the beginning of the plan. For Mubarak, there is always only one key to whether or not to invest, not the size, but whether it is worth it.

As long as it's worth it, it's perfect. Abu Dha's like that, so is Manchester City.

So, after listening to Linson's reasons for adding transfer funds, Mubarak only asked one question.

"Important?"

"Nope. But it is necessary. ”

"That's fine."

……

From walking into the chairman's office to walking out of the chairman's office, in less than fifteen minutes, Lin Sen got the transfer funds he wanted. It's a breeze.

When deciding to go to Mubarak, Lin Sen was not full of confidence, but he had a certain amount of confidence, because when Mubarak handed over the plan to him last summer. He knows all too well what is most important to Manchester City.

Second in the league and clinging to the top of the table.

The League Cup is in the final.

The FA Cup is in the fourth round.

The Europa League advanced to the knockout rounds.

This is Lin Sen's confidence. If the club can give a transfer fee of close to 200 million in the summer, then Lin Sen does not believe that with such a result, he will need less than 15 million additional transfer funds, so when he asked Mubaraka, Lin Sen was calm and did not hesitate at all.

The cause of the incident, of course, was that phone call from Livermore, the content of which was simple, that Málaga had received an offer, an offer that they could not refuse, because Atletico Madrid activated Reus's minimum release clause: fifteen million. So, as previously verbally agreed, Livermore informed Linson, although there were less than two days left before the transfer window closed.

Affected by the third-tier battle, Málaga's record in the league this season is worse than last season, currently ranked sixth in La Liga, and the Copa del Rey advanced to the quarterfinals, but in the Champions League, the inexperienced Malaga drew three and lost three in six group games, and finally finished at the bottom of the group, and even failed to play in the Europa League, and missed the opportunity to meet Linsen in the Europa League. And it was no accident that Atletico Madrid poached Málaga, who had just let go of Maxi Rodriguez and Recino asked for a replacement, with Reuss being the first choice after tasting the sweetness from Málaga last year.

Not only was manager Tapia furious at Atletico Madrid's last-minute poaching, but Livermore was also furious, because it meant they simply didn't have time to find a replacement for Reuss. But now, they can't stop the transfer. So, when calling Linson, Livermore very much hoped that Linson would intervene in the transfer.

It should be said that if the situation is changed, for example, Bale and Petrov are not injured, or if the club is changed, such as Dortmund, Lin Sen may only shake his head helplessly at this time.

One is that the time is so rushed, leaving only one day for Manchester City to operate. The second is because of ...... Manchester City ran out of money, or rather, City ran out of transfer fees. Not counting the transfer income in the summer, Manchester City has invested more than 150 million in the transfer market this season, and the 20 million spent on the signing of Di Maria is already the last transfer fund left in the summer.

Now, however, Linson has no intention of sitting idly by and watching Atletico sign Reuss.

Bale and Petrov were injured, and Linson planned to get through it, but now, the appearance of Reuss can perfectly make up for this vacancy, even if the two recover from injury at that time, Reuss can also form an effective rotation with David Silva in the forward position, so Linson has the objective conditions to grab Reuss. Moreover, it is Atletico Madrid who is digging people, and Lin Sen is still worried about Cork's affairs last year, and this time it is his turn to prepare to forcibly take Reus? It's really unbearable for uncles and aunts.

What if you don't have money?

With a shy old face, Lin Sen went to Mubarak to ask for money-

Nonstop.

Lin Sen immediately made an offer to Malaga for Royce, which also had a minimum termination fee of 15 million. Livermore, who had already received a call from Linson, also accepted Manchester City's offer for the first time, and the transfer almost directly entered the negotiation of the player's personal contract. Linsen had originally planned to fly to Malaga to facilitate the event, but with City still having an FA Cup game to play two days later, he couldn't get away anyway, and Marwood eventually went to Malaga instead of Linsen.

At this time, Atletico Madrid, who have already started contract talks with Reus, have not yet learned that Manchester City have intervened, and by the time they come to their senses, Reus has already nodded to Manchester City. For Royce, the choice couldn't be simpler.

January 31.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Manchester City made an offer, and in the meantime, Marwood boarded a private jet to Malaga.

At nine o'clock, Malaga accepted the offer.

At 11 a.m., Marwood had already started individual contract negotiations with the Reuss side, and at 1 p.m., contract negotiations were completed. Royce then flew to Manchester, accompanied by his agent.

At 3 p.m., Royce arrived in Manchester and underwent a medical check-up at a hospital arranged by the Manchester City side.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the physical examination was completed.

At 6 p.m., Manchester City submitted Reuss' player-related registration information to the FA.

At seven o'clock, Manchester City announced on their official website: Malaga German midfielder Marco Reus has transferred to Manchester City on a three-year contract.

How long does it take for a transfer that you want me to make? Less than twelve hours, this time, can be even less.

As soon as the transfer news came out, the world was in an uproar.

It was a blitzkrieg in no compromise. From Lin Sen's news to Manchester City's official announcement, it all happened on the same day.

Atletico Madrid's transfer manager Pitacci first smiled helplessly after learning that Reus had reached an agreement with Manchester City, but he was not angry, because he knew that Malaga was more angry than him, and he knew better who Manchester City's manager was. When Royce arrived in Manchester, he was greeted at the airport by none other than Linson.

Standing at the cold Carrington training base, Reuss was holding a Manchester City jersey in his hand, and next to him, Linson put one hand on his shoulder, facing the camera, both of them, both smiling brightly.

For Royce, that's how happiness came so suddenly.

At the end of last season, I have to say that Linsen's departure once disappointed him, and he even felt cheated, but then with the bombardment of Apono, the final departure of old Sans, and the change of the club's senior management, he gradually understood what the whole thing had happened, and then he understood why Linsen left Malaga, and he also understood Linsen a little more. In the new season, under the leadership of an equally familiar head coach Tapia, Reus and his teammates, who were identified as the core by Tapia, embarked on a new journey, at first, except for the absence of that figure, nothing seemed to have changed, Málaga was still winning, but soon, they suffered setbacks in the European arena, and the league began to repeat ...... Of course, it was the injuries that made Reus even more disappointing, and without Linson's care, his injuries seemed to become more frequent, and finally, when he returned to the team after four weeks of missing an injury, he found that he had lost his place at the heart of the team.

He was replaced by a man who was younger and more popular with the fans, Isco.

Royce couldn't complain, Isco was really good, not to mention, he was still a native of Málaga. But not complaining does not mean that you will accept a qiē. So, when Atletico Madrid activated his termination clause, he could have refused, but he didn't want to.

Just when he thought he was about to go to Madrid, what he was waiting for was a call from Lin Sen, and then ...... A qiē is like a dream. (To be continued......)
