In the summer of 2007, Millwall FC went to Asia to pan for gold, so that the team left Europe from the preparation period, and in the transfer market, Real Madrid's pursuit of Ronaldo entered the substantive stage, Messi's father and Barcelona also seemed to have reached an agreement secretly, and Barcelona also provided Millwall with an offer that seemed expensive to the outside world: 50 million pounds!

Yes, £50 million, it definitely looks at least twice what Messi is worth now!

Because he is young, he still has potential, and he can be stronger!

But Aldridge didn't even pay attention to this offer, and did not say to Barcelona: Your offer is simply insulting. There was no further response on this issue either.

The transfer window for Millwall is closed anyway.

No one sells!

For the time being, there is no prey that teams need to buy in the transfer market.

After the Asian Gold Rush is over, they will return to London and the team will start the new season.

At this time, the qualifying rounds for the UEFA Champions League also began, and Millwall had to make a statement.

The club is still calm, but it has only informed the FA that they can let last season's fifth place in the Premier League play in qualifying, which is Arsenal.

Originally, Arsenal was quite chaotic, and Wenger's life was getting sader day by day, but unexpectedly, this joy from heaven diluted the worries of fans.

Fifth in the league also has the Champions League?

Such a good thing!

Of course you can, why not?

The Champions League is allocated according to the number of qualifications in the league, if Manchester United, Chelsea. Liverpool are also out of Europe. Tottenham Hotspur behind. Everton, and even Bolton, who finished eighth in the league last season, can be substituted to play in the Champions League, but it is another thing to be disqualified from participating in the Champions League without the basic qualifications.

Despite the statement made by Millwall a few months ago and the declaration made by their players, it has come so far that it has shocked the media in world football!

Everyone thought that UEFA and Millwall had settled the dispute through private negotiations.

I didn't expect that peace was just a façade. At the critical moment, he still embarked on the road of no return!

Yes, everyone thinks that Millwall is doing this to their own destruction, and UEFA will of course be hurt, but this approach of hurting the enemy by 800 and losing 1,000 is very unwise in the eyes of most people.

The shadow looms over UEFA is anger and distrust of Platini, the pressure of direct financial benefits from sponsors, and the sense of crisis over the involvement of external regulators in the investigation, which has left UEFA frustrated with the reforms that have been carried out by Platini as the new president.

Millwall have an easier season ahead of them, with no European commitments. The domestic three-line is at the same time, although there are many games. But compared to before, it is definitely extremely relaxed, and the pressure is much less.

It was also after Millwall decided not to participate in the Champions League in the new season, British bookmakers first sealed the odds of winning the Premier League in the new season of the Premier League, and the other 19 teams bet at will, but the odds of Millwall winning the championship, sorry, they did not open, and then expanded to the whole of Europe, as well as bookmakers in other parts of the world, all of whom closed the odds of Millwall winning the Premier League.

Without the attrition and pressure of European competition, there seems to be no suspense that Millwall will continue to dominate the Premier League in the new season.

However, what they are facing internally is the positioning of Messi and Ronaldo!

The two never had the courage to stand in front of Aldridge and look him in the eye to say about the transfer.

I don't know if they don't want to leave, or if they wait for the other person to leave and stay on their own.

This stalemate has quickly turned into a cancer in Millwall's dressing room, and if it is not resolved, there may be no room for recovery, and as their team-mates become more distrustful of the two of them, they become more and more isolated, and when they do make a decision, the possibility of staying at Millwall is almost gone.

With three days to go in the Community Shield of the new season, Millwall's team is in good shape, Aldridge's work is still on track, and most of the players are not discouraged, so how can he lack fighting spirit?

After the day's training, Cristiano Ronaldo was alone at the training ground, and he looked absent-minded, training long-distance free-kicks again and again.

Kicked off quite a bit.

Last season was a bad season, at least he thinks so.

In this context, Millwall's new heroes have risen, Messi has soared, and he feels that he has not received the attention he deserves in the club, and he should be the absolute king of the new generation of the team!

Aldridge has promised that the team will return to European competition within three years, and this is confidential information, as closed as a dressing room, and no one can reveal it.

Three years, he can afford to wait.

All he needs is his head to tell him personally: You are the absolute heart of Millwall!

He needs that status to climb to the top of the world and become a legend in football through the ages.

But Aldridge's delay in expressing his stance made him a little frustrated.

Real Madrid's offer was tempting, arguably more than the material and internal commitments that Millwall were able to give.

However, in terms of Real Madrid's European table in recent years, Ronaldo is not sure whether running to the Bernabeu as a traitor is a career progress.

In his heart, the most fearful thing is: Millwall, a phenomenal club, there is no such store in this village!

In case Millwall returned to Europe, the war was followed by a devastating dynasty.

Then there is no doubt that the players of other teams of the same era, no matter how good the table xiàn, will be a foil, a foil! eclipsed, can only be a green leaf, to contrast with Millwall's great transcendence!

In particular, Real Madrid has all kinds of news every season to make a storm in the city, and a farce gives the outside world the feeling: how can such a team play well?

His mother persuaded him to go to Aldrich and tell him what was on his mind, believing that Aldrich would satisfy him as much as possible, because her mother confirmed that Aldrich was a good-hearted man.

But Ronaldo didn't go, he had already angered Aldrich. He was also afraid that after he really said his thoughts, he would be completely beaten into the cold by Aldrich!

I don't know when. A figure appeared on the sidelines of the training ground. Ronaldo didn't know how long the man had been watching, he turned his head to look, looked at the man, and said hello.

"Hi, Bert."

It was Aldridge's eldest son, who was already well-known at Millwall Football School, and was as strong as a lion cub. Energetic every day.

Bert stood there far away, and after Ronaldo greeted him, he yelled at Ronaldo: "Selfish ghost with no conscience! My dad gave you a bite to do when you had nothing, my dad stood up for you when you were scolded, and my dad spent more energy paying attention to your growth at home for many years than paying attention to me and Earl! He can clearly tell you how tall you are, how your weight changes, how fast you run, how fit you are, if you're sick. He will nervously ask the doctor to come to you, and he will visit you! When Earl and I were sick. My dad still has to direct the game! What were you doing when the team needed you the most? What are you doing? Selfish ghosts! Selfish ghosts without conscience! I don't worship you anymore! ”

The child roared, turned around, and ran away.

Ronaldo closed his eyes and reached out to touch his chest, and suddenly a feeling of self-blame and guilt burst out from the depths of his body and soon swept through his body

After training, Messi returned home.

Now he lives in a villa that is not just decent, but luxurious.

Andrew came to the door, he brought some Wen Jiàn, just ended his agent contract with Messi, but out of personal feelings, he introduced a lot of business resources of the network to Messi's father.

Andrew was not unhappy when Messi ended his contract with his agent.

After all, Messi was not poached by his peers.

It's just that Messi is worth more, his salary has risen, he has made more money, and sponsors are coming to his door in an endless stream to sign advertising contracts with him, so the part that seemed to be "exploited" by agents before was not remarkable, but now it may be astronomical.

So I want to take back this part of the income and let my father act as an agent, so that the fertilizer and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders.

Andrew has a good mentality, most of the South American football is like this, his business in South America is not mainly to be a player's agent, but to directly buy out the ownership of the player, and most players will find their own relatives to be an agent.

For example, the recent more famous player transfer events in Europe, Tevez and Mascherano, their ownership is in the hands of the agent company, and the outside world does not know that in that company, Andrew is almost half the owner.

After briefly introducing these sponsor resource information to Messi's father, Andrew was about to get up and say goodbye, but Messi's father suddenly said: "Andrew, can you tell Sir Hall, Millwall accepts Barcelona's offer, I know that our family has received a lot of care and favor from Sir Hall, but Barcelona is willing to bid 50 million pounds, and there are additional terms that can be increased to 80 million pounds, Millwall has earned a lot, really a lot." ”

Andrew, who was about to walk to the door, stopped, turned around, and instead of looking at Messi's father, he stared at Messi, who seemed to be sitting on the sofa for a long time.

He looked away and chuckled, then looked at Messi and said, "It's not about money, really, really not!" For Aldridge, give him 1 million pounds, and he can live this life very happily, and he has a net worth of more than 5 billion pounds, he doesn't care how much Barcelona asks, since a long, long time ago, player transfers are not business in his eyes, not business! He is my younger brother, and at this time, I want to say a word for him: Messi, if you are really grateful, don't try to repay him with money, that's an insult! You are like his child, he watched you grow up, he understands the pain you have suffered in the past many years because of the disease, he makes the club focus on taking care of you, nurturing you, and the time and energy he spends on you is not bought by money! I know what you're trying to say, you may still be struggling, if Aldridge really values you so much, why is he unwilling to sell Ronaldo away, keep you, and make you the most eye-catching king of the Lion King Stadium. I'm not your agent now, so I can put my heart out and ask you: you and Cristiano Ronaldo both want to be Napoli's Maradona, but why can't they be Millwall's Di Stefano and Puskas? ”

Andrew turned and left.

Messi looked at his departing back in a daze. (To be continued......)
