Chapter 40: Xia Guoyong's Suggestion

Teacher Xia Guoyong must have wanted to meet, so the next day Jose took a gift to the school after breakfast.

It's just that when Jose was about to enter the campus, he was stopped by the school police outside the school gate.

"Classmate, what class are you from? You're already late. There is also a school uniform that is required to be worn, what are you wearing? The school police officer looked at Jose sternly and said.

"I'm not here for class." Jose said to the school police officer with a smile.

Hearing Jose's words, the school police immediately said fiercely: "You are a young person in society, and students who are not from this school will not be allowed to enter." ”

When Jose heard the other party's words, he was slightly stunned, and then said, "I turned out to be a student at the school. ”

"So you've been kicked out of school." The school policeman's face was still not good.

Jose smiled slightly and said respectfully: "I wasn't expelled from school, I left school because I went abroad." ”

"Going abroad?" The school officer asked, looking at Jose suspiciously.

"I went abroad to play last year, my name is Jose, and I came back to find Mr. Xia Guoyong." José patiently explained.

"Playing abroad? I remember calling him Li Feng, not Jose. Although the attitude of the school police has eased, the vigilance has not dropped at all.

"I'm going out with Li Feng, you can ask Teacher Xia for verification." José asked, smiling.

……

After a delay of more than ten minutes, Jose finally met Xia Guoyong.

On the side of the playground, Xia Guoyong and Jose walked and chatted.

To Jose's surprise, Xia Guoyong has always been concerned about the fact that he led the team to win the Youth FA Cup.

"José, good job." Xia Guoyong said.

"That's also thanks to Mr. Xia for waking me up." Jose is not fake modest, if it weren't for Mr. Xia, he wouldn't have thought about playing the goalkeeper position at all, and the system wouldn't have appeared.

"According to online media reports, there are several clubs ready to buy you, have you figured out where to go?" Xia Guoyong asked with concern.

"I haven't thought about it, do you have any suggestions?" Jose said he really didn't have a decision on which club to go to.

Xia Guoyong said with a smile: "Going to a wealthy club is definitely the final choice, but the giants are not suitable for you now." ”

"Why?"

"Any big club, you have two or three great goalkeepers, you're only 17 now, do you think you can compete with them?" Xia Guoyong reminded.

Hearing Xia Guoyong's words, Jose fell into deep thought, he is not afraid of competition and believes in his own strength, but it is a bit unlikely to let the coach of a giant club choose a 17-year-old goalkeeper as the main force.

Jose didn't think about this problem before, because the big clubs were far away from him.

But now, whether from Mendes's mouth or media reports, he can already confirm that there are indeed big clubs interested in him.

"Do you have any good advice from Teacher Xia?" José asked sincerely.

"Stay at Villa and try to play in the senior team and then consider joining a big club in the future. Of course that's just my suggestion, if there's a big club that allows you to play, you don't have to think about me. Xia Guoyong said seriously.

Hearing Xia Guoyong's words, a warm current surged through Jose's heart.

He knew very well what Xia Guoyong meant by saying this, which was nothing more than worrying that Jose would join the giants too early and lose the opportunity to play.

For young players, it's hard to keep improving without enough games.

What Xia Guoyong is worried about is also something Jose has to face.

Jose and Xia Guoyong chatted for a long morning, and finally Jose left satisfied.

Back at home, José found that his parents were especially happy today.

It turned out that they used the money Jose gave them to pay off the mortgage early, which meant that they would never have to live that tight life again.

Happy times are always so short-lived, and before José could reunite with his parents, the club's top brass called him.

It turned out that Arsenal were the first to make their own offer, £3 million.

The Villa hierarchy believes that the price is not low for a young player.

As a result, Arsenal have been given direct access to the players.

In response to Arsenal's request, Jose only asked one question about whether he could guarantee his Premier League appearances.

To this, Arsenal's reply is that after three years, Jose can enter the main reincarnation, and before that he can only play in the reserve team.

José did not agree to Arsenal's reply, nor did he refuse, but only told the other party that he needed to think about it, and if it happened, the Mendes team would be in charge of the relevant matters.

After Arsenal, Chelsea also made their own offer, also £3 million, although they highlighted that they had just won the Champions League.

Joining a Champions League-winning team is a tempting thing for most players.

Except for Jose.

Because Chelsea also couldn't provide Jose with the opportunity he wanted.

The third to contact Jose is Manchester City. With Mansour's wealth backing and the new Premier League title, their offer was very generous, straight to £5 million.

If the principle of the highest price is followed, the Villa hierarchy are the most willing to make a deal with Manchester City.

Although Manchester City sincerely offered a transfer fee of 5 million, it still failed to meet Jose's needs, and Manchester City's purchase plan was once again put on hold.

In addition to these Premier League giants, there are other sporadic clubs that have made offers, but because the offer is too low, it has been rejected directly by the Villa hierarchy.

Just when the clubs were tugging between them, Chelsea, who had just signed Eden Hazard for £32 million, raised their bid for Jose again, from £3 million to £8 million.

However, to the surprise of the Chelsea hierarchy in charge of transfers, this time the Villa hierarchy refused.

Because MacDonald provided a report on Jose's achievements over the past year.

The moment they saw McDonald's report, the Villa hierarchy couldn't help but secretly rejoice that they had reassessed Jose at the same time.

In the end, it was agreed that less than 30 million, no need to talk.

"Vera is crazy?" The major clubs that got the news frowned.

You know, in the past two years, the newcomer Wang Hazard, who has won the Ligue 1 MVP in a row, has a transfer fee of only 32 million, Jose is just a 17-year-old young goalkeeper, Villa dares to offer 3,000 yuan, who gave them the courage?

José learned about the asking price of the Villa hierarchy from Mendes, but he was unusually calm about it.

Jose never had such a thing as a "child dream".

For him, if he can't play, he'd rather stay at Villa.

Villa's lions opened their mouths and immediately scared off most clubs, with only Manchester City, Chelsea and Real Madrid still refusing to give up.

Originally, Real Madrid's interest in Jose was very limited, but when it was learned that Vera was priced at £30 million, Florentino immediately became interested.

Could it be that this is only buying the expensive and not the right?
