Chapter 223: Mr. Two Billion (Skippable, Transition Chapter)
North London, Islington Community.
The morning light pierced through the mottled window and shone on Old Tom's big ass.
A few magpies snapped back and forth in the treetops.
Early bugs are eaten by birds.
Old Tom reluctantly climbed out of bed, and the habit he had developed over the years made him instinctively walk out of the bedroom, through the corridor, and open the door.
The mailbox was stuffed to the brim.
"The Sun is the best way to read toilet paper when you go to the toilet."
"Forget it, let's read the newspaper with a strong degree of professionalism first, eat the bad news first, and save the good news to taste slowly."
In recent years, there has been little positive news about Arsenal in professional football newspapers.
It's nothing more than how much money you owe and how much revenue pressure you have.
"The Royal Bank of Scotland claims that Arsenal has paid off its last £8.2 million in short-term debt and still owes £232 million in long-term borrowings."
"Relevant investigation agencies show that the cash reserves in Arsenal's account are as high as 150 million euros, I am wrong! It's fucking pounds! ”
"The short-term debt paid off means that the £150 million can be used!"
"Survey shows: Arsenal's total wages for the 15-16 season are the second highest in the Premier League!"
When you see this message.
Old Tom was excited: "Great Mr. Arsène Wenger! Arsenal fans love you forever! ”
Who would have thought.
The stadium borrowed 470 million pounds from the bank! Wenger actually paid it all back, how much money did he sell just by selling the captain? Under the premise of low expenditure every year, it is also able to maintain the top four Premier League rankings!
Great?
That word doesn't sum up Arsene Wenger's dedication to Arsenal!
This old scalper withstood the infamy of all parties, kept working hard, and dedicated everything to the dilapidated house that leaked on all sides.
Arsene Wenger brought in EQE from Real Madrid for £42.5 million in 2013! The player has recently arrived at Paris Saint-Germain to complete a medical examination! The transfer fee is a whopping £75 million! Cash account up to £220 million! ”
"The great Mr. Wenger has helped Arsenal earn more than 30 million pounds!"
"Isn't that right?"
"Arsenal sold our Premier League assist leader? Sold our core? ”
"Damn!"
"Damn Wenger, Grande!"
"I curse him! Sinners of Arsenal! ”
Old Tom sat at the table, brewed a cup of instant coffee, and cursed the Arsenal manager incessantly.
Chirping~
The big ass is pressed against the fragile wooden chair.
Sure enough, professional newspapers don't always report good news for Arsenal.
"Only garbage like The Sun can start the day!"
Old Tom unfolded the newspaper.
The moment I saw the headlines on the front page.
The smile on his face suddenly stiffened.
Bang!
With the shaking of the table.
The hot coffee spilled and flowed down the table, wetting Tom Sr.'s crotch.
"Great. Noble and perfect Mr. Arsène Wenger! ”
Manchester United, Carrington Training Base.
Pogba is late again.
Mourinho's face darkened.
The French genius was unimpressed and took it upon himself to practice for the tie-in.
He is not afraid of Mourinho, he returned to Manchester United under the persuasion of the club's top management: Mr. 100 million yuan, the king of the summer window, the king of breaking the world transfer history record!
If the conflict intensifies, the people who are driven away by Manchester United. It's Jose Mourinho!
The atmosphere was awkward for a while.
Only Lingard had a smile on his face.
Pogba's mind was mixed and he tried to say something to lighten the mood: "I heard the doorman talking about EQE being sold to Ligue 1? Arsenal is really searching, either selling the captain or selling the core! Arsene Wenger approached me a few years ago. ”
"Does he have any money?"
Everyone looked at each other: "You didn't read the newspaper in the morning?" ”
Pogba spreads his hands: "I never read the newspaper!" ”
Lingard leaned in and whispered.
The French genius was stunned.
A phrase echoed in my ears.
"The most expensive, but also the best."
The summer transfer window is in full swing.
One is the Premier League transfer news that is crazy to refresh.
The Premier League powerhouses are no longer holding back and are spending money one after another.
Arsenal became the protagonists.
Only he is selling.
"EQE leaves Arsenal and joins Paris Saint-Germain for a transfer fee of up to 90 million euros! 》
"Premier League assist king, after all, he didn't have a chance to renew his contract with Arsenal! A look back at EQE's Arsenal dazzling moments! 》
'Neville: Arsene Wenger's sick management has turned himself into a tumor for Arsenal, a real Grande in the Premier League, a slave to capital. 》
The number of likes, comments, and retweets has skyrocketed.
-
[Wenger can't do it, the midfield core has been sold, how can Arsenal fight for the fourth next season? ] Wait for relegation! 】
-
[Do the elderly have this problem of liking to save money? I like to watch the money in my account increase, and I don't care whether my son can find a daughter-in-law or not? 】
-
[I eat if I don't relegate, EQE is present and not there, Arsenal are completely two teams, and the overall combat effectiveness gap is too big! ] 】
-
[Manchester City is starting to spend money, awesome! 】
-
[Liverpool bought Mane!] So blissful! The attack of the front line will never be dumb again! 】

Catalunya TV.
Enrique is participating in a live broadcast of the European Youth Championships.
'Lee is certainly the best midfielder in the younger generation, but he won't break Pogba's transfer record.
"Pogba's agent is Mino Raiola and the transfer process is very complicated!"
"Who is Lee's agent? He doesn't have the support of the brokerage team behind him! ”
"Barcelona can afford him, it's just that we have a perfect midfield configuration. No, no, no, the strength of the individual is not representative of the whole, and the distribution of the ball between him and MSN is difficult to deal with. ”
'That's why Camp Nou didn't bring him back, Lee is inflated in the transfer market and I expect him to pay about the same amount as EQE.
"As for which team to go to? Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, of course! Manchester City have been imitating Barcelona and they will package a successor to Xavi. ”
As soon as this set of rhetoric came out.
The European press agreed.
Although Enrique's coaching level has been narrowed under the halo of MSN, his vision is very vicious, especially with a group of talented stars who helped Barcelona recruit in the summer window this year. Everyone has unlimited potential.
August 4, 2016.
A piece of news on Arsenal's official website shocked the world.
"Official Announcement: Li Kang officially joined Arsenal. 》
The huge layout on the homepage: It is the European Cup scorer king wearing the No. 10 red and white jersey!
'Mr. 200 million. ’
The whole British Peninsula seemed to let out a gentle tremble.
A blockbuster transfer that detonated the world.
Countless fans were dumbfounded.
Two hundred million?
Double the 200 million that broke the history of world transfers
Has Arsenal's official website been hacked? April Fool's Day?
A moment later.
Leverkusen's official website posted a message.
"Official Announcement: Li Kang officially left Leverkusen. 》
Fans all over the world. Stunned.
Sunlight can't penetrate the blackened clouds.
North Rhine is shrouded in grief.
Bayer Arena.
Seats were removed from the stands on all sides, and thousands of fans flocked to the venue.
“Lee!!!”
“Lee!!!”
“Lee!!!”
The shouts were reluctant.
One of the grandest farewell ceremonies in Leverkusen's 100-year history is taking place on the pitch.
German Cup winner's trophy.
Bundesliga champion salad plate.
It was placed on either side of Leverkusen 10.
The spotlight flickered wildly.
Journalists don't want to miss every moment.
Li Kang looked around and symbolically raised his hand with the Bayer Leverkusen fans.
In his field of vision, Barak's phantom suddenly appeared.
The legendary superstars of the other modules seemed to be infected, and after appearing one by one, they were silent.
The sadness of parting eroded Li Kang's consciousness in an instant.
With a roar from Nesta.
Li Kang suddenly remembered the scene of being smashed by a group of fans after losing the Champions League, abusing and sarcastic.
I couldn't help but start to disgust the reluctance that resounded over the Bayer Arena.
The Munich Zeitung, loyal to Bayern, declared:
'North Rhine, lost their king. ’
'Munich, today is the dawn. ’
The farewell ceremony ended quickly.
It was very windy.
Blown to the locker room at Bayer Arena.
Old man Toph helped Li Kang tie his shoes.
Teacher Belénta told her not to abandon her studies when she went to London.
Dino anxiously stuffed his suitcase with a souvenir.
Havertz and Brandt sulked.
Worrall rubbed the corners of his eyes and smiled, "Lee, Leverkusen will always be your home." ”
Li Kang smiled and took the initiative to hold the white-haired old man's hands.
It's like a late afternoon at Düsseldorf Airport.
There is no shortage of goodbyes in the process of growing up.
It's like elementary school, junior high school, high school, college. On every journey, you lose something.
Time is like sand, and it will gradually wear out the most precious things in my heart.
Say goodbye to the past and embrace a new future.
on the plane.
Morata flipped through the newspaper and said dishappily:
"I joined Arsenal for 50 million euros, why did you give me such a small position report?"
"If it weren't for the agent López who persuaded me. Nonsense, do you still use him to persuade you? ”
"Li, the two of us are finally teammates in one club!"
"Don't be nervous, the confrontation in the Premier League is not as fierce as we imagined, I will protect you!"
Just like the first encounter on the expedition to Japan.
The age difference between the two is a few years.
Morata subconsciously and instinctively still says something like "protect and take care".
Li Kang nodded seriously.
He didn't have time to sigh.
The tablet in his hand has already downloaded more than a dozen G of high-definition uncensored videos.
Of course, it's the footage of the Premier League's biggest players.
"Lee joined Arsenal?"
'Arsenal also have a La Masia academy full-back, Bellerin, I remember that kid!'
Etihad Stadium.
Pep Guardiola listens as the teaching assistant reads out a newspaper message.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
That's right.
Full-back.
La Masia's number 4 plus La Masia's full-back
Will Arsenal give birth to the ultimate answer to a tactical revolution?
The Manchester City coaching staff were completely unaware that their own manager was in a state of flux again.
Meanwhile.
Stamford Bridge.
Abu slapped his forehead vigorously.
"Alvaro Morata joined Arsenal as well?"
"Fuck, wouldn't I just move the midfielder of the Spanish national team to Chelsea?"
"We already have Cesc Fabregas and Diego Costa."
"Why didn't you remind me?"
The tough tone gradually weakened and turned to sadness.
"Lee"
Outside of Madrid.
Real Madrid training base.
Modric couldn't help but smile when he saw the transfer news.
In the matchup between the Champions League and the European Cup, the two are in the whole with a huge disparity in strength.
I don't know what kind of sparks will be sparked when we meet next season.
Kroos remembered Li Kang in the European Cup, and suddenly wanted to leave work early, not because he was afraid, but because he felt that he was too tired to meet that kid.
Bale received a pass from his teammates and said unhappily: "What is the boss doing?" Is it necessary to train so early? My holiday"
Varane hurriedly covered his mouth: "Shhh, it's going to be Asia soon, don't keep arguing with the boss!" ”
Distance.
Zidane smiled and shook his head.
The assistant coach reminded: "Boss, have you noticed the changes in Ronaldo during this time? ”
The Real Madrid coach followed the assistant coach's finger and looked over.
Cristiano Ronaldo is practicing alone on the pitch.
Zidane frowned and said:
"Look forward to it, next season, we will see a new him!"
'We may have a lot of opponents we haven't seen in the Champions League for a long time.
The whole Barcelona team came to Dubai.
The stars walked out of the pick-up gate, and there was a sea of people.
The poster of the MSN trio is held high!
Enrique was not at home.
He is being bombarded by the Catalan media, and with a mouthful of "poisoned milk", he has also become the darling of major European radio stations.
Mr. 200 million
Premier League salary cap
The mouth couldn't get hard anymore.
Pique dragged his suitcase and muttered: "We always draw Arsenal in the last 16 of the Champions League. I don't want to draw Lee next season! ”
Iniesta shook his head and said, "Not so many coincidences. ”
Vaguely.
Everyone couldn't help but think of the original Camp Nou rain battle.
Busquets took a deep breath and said: "Arsenal's high. It's not a lot, and we don't run into them that easily."
"I hope to meet Lee."
Messi interrupted.
August 12, 2016.
In the eyes of the whole world.
The buzzing Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal ushered in their dawn.
