The well-known ESPN broadcast platform invited José to be a guest commentator during the World Cup.

The pay is also very good.

In addition to this reason, there is also the fact that the third semester of Oxford University is about to start.

Normally, it would be difficult for a player as young as Jose to get into the eyes of ESPN.

But after looking around, they found that most of the current well-known players have World Cup tasks.

And Jose has just led the team to win the Europa League, coupled with his handsome appearance, which has captured a considerable number of female fans, so Jose's popularity is not lower than those famous old stars.

Jose was a little apprehensive about this job at first, but when he saw other players and coaches talking about it, he suddenly didn't feel anything.

In the 14 years of the World Cup, in the end, as predicted, the German team had the last laugh.

After all, Brazil paid a heavy price for the lack of a good goalkeeper.

If Jose joins Brazil, will Brazil have the last laugh?

Such an assumption has been proposed.

It's just that this question will never be answered.

The world's most anticipated football event has passed in a blink of an eye.

Jose finally got his Premier League labor certification, and he became what fans called a "hukou player".

Obtaining a Premier League labour certificate means that Jose can sign a formal professional contract with any football club in Europe.

Prior to this, Jose had always signed a youth contract.

There is naturally a big difference between a professional contract and a youth contract.

The most obvious of these is the wage cap.

Without waiting for José to raise this question, Abu sent Sister NO to communicate with José.

With Mendes' mediation, Jose signed a new professional contract with Chelsea.

The new contract period is 5+1 years.

Jose's salary has also increased significantly, from £10,000 a week to £80,000 a week.

Of course, this is a pre-tax salary.

If 40 per cent of personal income tax is deducted, Jose's actual salary is £48,000.

48,000 pounds, according to the current exchange rate, Jose's weekly income is equivalent to 480,000 Chinese dollars.

The income went up, and José wanted his parents to quit their jobs for the first time.

However, they all refused.

As a Chinese person, hard work has become a habit.

In addition to the salary increase, Mendez also won a right for Jose, that is, the proportion of portrait rights.

After negotiations, José and Méndez will have 80 percent of the personal image rights.

Chelsea own 20 per cent, while Villa will no longer own José's image rights gains.

Of course, Villa can still use Jose's name and profile picture for the promotion of the club's academy.

When he moved out of the Villa Academy dormitory, Jose was filled with reluctance.

He went to meet McDonald first, and after all these years, McDonald is still in the academy.

In addition to his outstanding contributions, there is also the club's low demand for youth team coaches.

After saying goodbye to MacDonald, Jose went to a bar with Grealish and Robinson.

Several of them were over eighteen years old, and they were not during the competition, so they all had a good drink.

By the end of the drink, Grealish and the others fell to the ground drunk.

"He, I really envy you, you can go there to play football so soon." Grealish said with squinting eyes.

"What? Do you want to go to Chelsea too? Jose asked rhetorically.

"No, I'm going to be your opponent. My goal in the future is to break the goal that you are guarding. Grealish took another sip of his glass.

"Okay, if you can win me a goal, I'll treat you to a meal of Chinese cuisine." Jose said with a smile.

"Really? Words count. When Grealish heard about the Chinese cuisine, he immediately sobered up halfway through his wine.

Jose didn't know it before, but after going to a Chinese restaurant with Grealish, he found out that Grealish's love for Chinese cuisine even surpassed that of Jose, a Chinese man.

For Grealish, ordering a weekly takeaway of Chinese food has become a habit in his life.

"Of course." José responded.

"Okay." Grealish raised his glass and drank it down, then fell to the ground drunk like the others.

Looking at his drunk partner, José shook his head, fortunately there were no gossip reporters here, otherwise the headlines in the newspapers tomorrow would be that a generation of talented goalkeepers would get drunk in a bar.

Of course, José wasn't drunk.

I don't know if it's because of the existence of the system, no matter how much Jose drinks, it won't cause any reaction in his body, and alcohol is like plain water for him.

After saying goodbye to Grealish, José drove his luggage to London to start a new life.

After arriving in London, José rented a house in the suburbs through an agent.

The price is not expensive, and the area is large enough, but the location is relatively remote, between the Cobham training base and Oxford University.

José likes this house because it is convenient for him to go back to the base for training and for him to go to school.

As a result, José paid a one-time rent for two years, a total of £50,000.

José found that when incomes rise, so does consumption.

When all that was said and done, Chelsea's summer training camp began.

At the same time, the summer transfer period began.

The transfer flow of players, Jose did not pay much attention.

All he noticed was that Fabregas, one of the four traitors in the mouth of Arsenal fans, had joined Chelsea.

Cesc Fabregas is joined by Diego Costa.

In addition, Chelsea's legendary striker Didier Drogba returns.

The first friendly was against Wycombe Rovers from Birmingham.

Jose played for Chelsea away from home and Jose made his first appearance for Chelsea.

In the end, Chelsea won 5-0.

Jose played the full game in the first of eight games throughout the warm-up season, with the rest of the games coming off the bench or in the second half.

And with Courtois' return, Jose never played again.

Jose suddenly had a bad feeling.

On 30 July, Romelu Lukaku decided to move to Everton due to lack of regular playing time.

Lukaku then made a name for himself at Everton.

Also on his way to Everton was Samuel Eto'o.

In between, Demba Ba, David Luiz, Ashley Cole, and Mohamed Salah in the back were also departed.

Jose only realized at this time that the competition for the starters of the giant clubs was so fierce.

And the last thing that is lacking in Chelsea's academy is talent.

Lucas Piazon, who played against Jose on the pitch, had no chance to play in the first team at all, and he ended up on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt.

Jose couldn't help but wonder if he had really made the right choice to come to Chelsea so early.

Jose Mourinho is a good coach indeed.

But his cautious personality is destined to make it difficult for him to give a chance, a young player like Jose.

Talented? The Cobham training base is all over the place.

Before you know it, the new Premier League season is coming.

On August 19, the final match of the first round of the 14/15 Premier League season began.

Chelsea travel to promoted Burnley.

Thibaut Courtois was given the chance to start, while Jose was on the bench.

Jose Mourinho has explained to Jose that he is too young at the moment and that he needs a more experienced goalkeeper to guard the goal.

Jose wanted to refute Mourinho's explanation, but in the end he said nothing.

After more than a month of contact, Jose clearly knows that Mourinho is a good person and a good coach, but he is also a stubborn person, and once he has decided something, he will not change it easily.

When he learned of Mourinho's thoughts, Jose immediately turned to Mendes for advice.

As a community of interests, Mendez will certainly be on his side.

Méndez didn't give an answer, just told Jose to wait first.

Against Burnley, Chelsea won 3-1.

Courtois didn't play much in this game, but Mourinho believes that it was Courtois's return to the team and still needs to be run-in.

José was very disappointed with this.

Four days later, on 23 August, the second round of the Premier League 14/15 season resumed.

Chelsea host Leicester City.

Thibaut Courtois continued to get a chance to start, while Jose failed to make the squad.

It was at this moment that Jose decided that he could no longer waste his time at Chelsea.

Jose began to seek to leave.

As for the way to leave the team, it can only be on loan.

As for the team, Jose hopes that it would be better to be a team that qualifies for the Champions League.

In this way, José has very few options.

For Manchester City, Joe Hart is in charge, and although there are often butter hand incidents, Pellegrini still trusts him.

For Liverpool, although Mignolet is not as good as Courtois, he is in his prime and Rodgers has not given up his courage.

As for Arsenal? They do need a first-choice goalkeeper, but will Jose agree to let Jose go to his city rivals?

Just as Jose was thinking about it, Mendez brought new news.

Bayer Leverkusen from the Bundesliga are willing to sign Jose on loan and give him a place in the main team.

Bayer Leverkusen have already qualified for the Champions League play-offs, winning 3-2 away in the first leg and reaching the group stage is almost a certainty.

The new head coach Schmidt believes that although the existing goalkeeper Leno is good, it is far from enough to achieve results in the Champions League.

He watched José's performance in the Europa League final repeatedly, and he believes that Jose is the one who can lead the pharmaceutical company forward.

Jose was initially delighted with Leverkusen's invitation.

But as soon as I wanted to go to Germany, my studies were interrupted.

José began to hesitate again.

In the end, it was the well-informed Mendes who gave the answer.

Jose has the option of hiring a tutor or applying to the school for an extended term.

The choice of asking for a tutor, Jose gave up directly.

Universities can be different from secondary schools, especially those with a strong specialization like Oxford.

So, José chose to apply to the school for an extension of the semester.

At the same time, Mendez's side began to act.

Although Abu felt sorry for Jose's departure, Mourinho did not stop him, and he agreed.

The three parties quickly completed the loan contract.

On a two-year loan, Chelsea have an early recall clause after one year.

And Jose's salary and bonuses at Leverkusen are all the responsibility of the other party.

As for the cost of the loan, José didn't know, only that Abu didn't ask for much.

Before leaving for Germany, José also made an important decision.
