At the same time, the gaze turns back to the distant British Peninsula.

While Lu Chenfeng was participating in variety shows, some people related to him here in the past few days were also busy.

Manchester United's administration building, inside the President's office.

Malcolm sat here, his face impatient and irritated.

It's not like it's because of anger, but because of inner entanglement and helplessness.

"I admit that his results are unmatched by stars this year, and he deserves to be the first man of the season in 1617."

"But towards the end of the season, I've already given him a raise."

"Now it's going to go up again, what do the rest of the people in the locker room think, what about the salary balance within the team?"

"And it's not in line with the rules at all, have you ever seen a star who has raised his salary twice in a season? With such an investment, our family will have a lot less financial income every year. ”

In front of him were still sitting some core personnel in the family and the club, and after listening to what Malcolm said at the moment, they were all embarrassed.

A fax clerk in charge of receiving fax messages from Manchester United said embarrassedly: "These things were said by other high-level officials after discussion, of course I have no right to speak, and the final decision is in your hands, sir." ”

"But please listen to my side first."

"Real Madrid has sent a fax to our club asking for a meeting with you, and they will release the news within three days, and they will invite Lu Chenfeng with a salary comparable to that of Cristiano Ronaldo, and at the same time make great concessions in terms of some image rights and other aspects of the players."

"They're going to build the Chenfeng as the core of the next generation of galactic battleships."

After saying this, the fax clerk observed Malcolm's face for a moment, and then continued: "Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, the two La Liga hegemons, also have this idea. ”

"One of them promised the same salary as Messi, and the other promised a new maximum salary in the team, and they all asked Lu Chenfeng to join and sit down with you."

"In addition to that, the clubs in La Liga, Valencia and even Sevilla, these two clubs have also sent faxes."

"The Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and other leagues have faxed over."

"I've been busy these days, they send too many faxes, almost all the big clubs, clubs that can struggle to pick up transfer fees, are sending them."

“……”

After the fax officer's voice fell, the scene fell into silence.

This news is certainly reliable.

Now, even if the players don't have any ideas themselves, the pressure on them can be imagined.

Because everyone knows how important Lu Chenfeng is to Manchester United, and he is the kind of player who must not be let go.

And the former players have no ideas, but it's okay.

Once the players themselves are a little shaken, it is easy for the other big clubs to come up with a very big temptation to take the players away.

This is a loss that United cannot possibly afford.

Malcolm sat in silence, as the head of the family, although he was greedy and picky, he would definitely not be a fool.

I will never be stingy when I need to use money, I will not be stubborn when I think about things, and I will be absolutely sure when I do many things.

But today, that sense of absolute certainty is gone.

Maybe he didn't dare to take the slightest risk, and the slightest bit was very fatal.

"How much is the transfer fee reported?"

After thinking about it, Malcolm could only ask like this.

The data of Dezhuan is going to be refreshed today, and it is almost this time.

Before that, he wanted to see how strong these clubs' desire for Lu Chenfeng really was!

"Between 1300 million pounds and 220 million pounds......"

The fax clerk called out a number that once again made everyone in the room drop their glasses.

Pound sterling!

Over 200 million!

This is definitely a number that has never been seen before in football.

The highest transfer in football before was difficult to get close to 110 million!

Mr. 100 million yuan is almost the highest transfer fee in the world.

And it's the euro, not the pound.

The gap between these two currencies is actually quite large.

When Manchester United paid 100 million yuan for Pogba before, I thought that I could make others envy my own strength for a while.

As a result, what kind of fairy prices did these devil clubs quote?

Real Madrid, Manchester City, Grand Paris, Barcelona, Bayern these clubs, quoting this price, is a little more understandable.

You Sevilla can quote more than £130 million for anything, and there are countless salary investments in the future.

Why are you?

A huge wave ran through Malcolm's heart, and he was already a little restless.

He is a little afraid that Lu Chenfeng will be shaken, and he will hit the name of the world's most valuable person, or go to other clubs to get the highest salary, and then follow a group of stars to attack the Champions League title.

In this case, the damage done to Manchester United is absolutely irreversible.

"Our proposal is to raise his salary and formally adjust his salary level to a point where he can't go."

Someone suggested out loud: "Although it's a bit funny to get two salary increases in one season, and the other party doesn't ask for it. ”

"But that's exactly what shows the sincerity of us at Manchester United."

After this sentence was spoken, it was quickly approved by most of the people present.

Many people nodded and turned their eyes to Malcolm, none of them wanted to lose the morning breeze, hoping that Malcolm would be willing to do this.

"If you raise your salary, you ...... more"

Malcolm was about to speak when he was interrupted by someone next to him.

He was about to get angry, but when he heard what the man said, he quickly calmed down.

"The German turn price is out, the summary value after the 1617 season, the market situation."

A data clerk had been paying attention to his mobile phone just now, and when he saw that it was finally swiped, he suddenly shouted excitedly.

"Report the top five."

Malcolm didn't want to look at the few people behind him, so he asked directly.

'Eden Hazard, 110 million euros, fifth.

"Neymar, 140 million euros, fourth."

"Cristiano Ronaldo, 160 million euros, third."

When they heard this, everyone present already had some premonitions in their hearts.

Even Ronaldo was squeezed out of the top two this time, which means that Lu Chenfeng has almost locked the first......

He can't be further behind, he can only squeeze Messi Ronaldo out!

"Messi, 175 million euros, second."

When they heard this voice, even if they were under pressure, several people present still gasped deeply!

Really!

Messi Ronaldo fell out of the top two that has been held all year round!

The first place has been taken by Lu Chenfeng!

Moreover, his worth has exceeded 175 million euros in the estimated level of German transfer!

Terror!

"Lu Chenfeng, 194 million euros, first."

When the words of number one were spoken, there was a long silence in the chairman's office.

The sound of swallowing saliva and adjusting the sitting position was so constant that it seemed that everyone couldn't accept this amazing and even frightening number.

Has this kind of number ever appeared before?

Not at all!

The evaluation of the German transfer is still relatively serious, and it is often about the same as the actual price of the player himself.

They are based on the player's performance this season, popularity, age, length of contract and other factors, as well as the history of the football and recent economic situation.

Their numbers are authoritative numbers.

It means that Lu Chenfeng may really be worth this money, or more money than this money.

At this time, even Malcolm, who was still a little distressed just now, couldn't stand it anymore, and he said without hesitation: "The value we gave him before was 300,000 pounds after tax." ”

"We adjusted him to 400,000 pounds, also after tax, and at the same time properly studied to give him a few more permissions, as well as the surrounding sales share, this should be no problem."

Malcolm did make a bloody investment, and he did have to do it.

"That's pretty much the best salary in the world."

The others nodded slightly and agreed to the offer.

"Tell the news to my agent Mendes first, and then wait until they end the offseason and come back together to sign the contract."

Malcolm waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go out.

Now he's going to have to think about what he's going to do this season.

Not long after the others had left, there was another knock on the door.

"Enter."

Malcolm shouted, and then saw Mourinho walk in.

"Oh yes, I forgot to chat this afternoon."

Malcolm poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of the chair across from him, motioning for Mourinho to take a seat.

Mourinho quickly sat down and said: "You know I'm a person who doesn't like to go around corners, I came here today to know the transfer budget for next season. ”

"You can see the great success we have had this season, and I want to win more next season, so I hope you understand."

Hearing this, Malcolm hesitated slightly, and then said, "I just agreed to give Lu Chenfeng a salary increase of 100,000 pounds after tax. ”

"I'll tell you about this matter first, and about this player, you can't have some private operations, we have to discuss everything."

"He's really special."

Mourinho, who was sitting opposite, was also a little shocked when he heard the news, but nodded slightly and didn't say much.

"Given the excellent results of this season, and the non-interference promised to you."

"I don't care about anything else."

"For 200 million euros, you can buy any player you want, or you can use him as a weekly salary to renew the contract of those players you want."

"That's a lot of money, is it enough?"

“……”

After hearing these words, Mourinho's heart was slightly relieved, although this money was a little worse than the price in his heart, it was definitely enough.

And he really has all the right to speak, which is really cool.

'That's enough, because there are a couple of players that I want to sell, and this one really requires me to take full responsibility for all of this.

"When the time comes, the money from the sale will be enough."

“……”

Mourinho's answer made Malcolm's heart feel slightly relieved, sometimes the most difficult thing to satisfy is such a coach who has just won the quadruple crown, and now, the two have chatted on this topic for the first time quite well.

As for the money that Mourinho got back from selling people, although he was a little distressed, or he felt sorry for all the power he had released, he had a sense of emptiness that he couldn't control.

But that can only be the case, and he does expect Jose Mourinho to lead Manchester United back to the top.

As long as there are achievements, everything else is easy to say.

In fact, at the demarcation point of history, this season because of the conflict between Pogba and Mourinho, everything became irreconcilable, and Manchester United finally gave up Mourinho.

But the quadruple, with a Europa League and Premier League quadruple, did give the Glazer family an excellent rating for Mourinho's debut season and made them trust the manager.

Moreover, Lu Chenfeng was brought over by Mourinho, and now he is worth far more than Pogba, not to mention the role.

In this case, Malcolm would not be stupid enough to give up Mourinho for Pogba.

Because he is still afraid that there is a possibility that Lu Chenfeng will follow Mourinho, this coach's personality charm is indeed very great.

"By the way, who are you going to sell and who you bring back, I should have the power to know first, right?"

"Of course."

Mourinho nodded, then said a plan he had already prepared.

"I have some understanding of the offers that Manchester United has received this year, and I also know the market price of these players, so I can't put them up for sale in the end."

"The first thing to sell is Pogba, because the chairman knows that he will bring us about 80 million euros in revenue, and I will use all of it to bring in reinforcements."

"On top of that, I'm going to sell Mcitaryan, Blind, all the fringe players, as well as some second-team and youth team members, and I'll be able to get almost 350 million euros in reinforcements."

Malcolm was distressed to hear Mourinho's ambitions, but decided to keep listening.

"Reinforcement."

Mourinho also got serious at this point, saying: "Defenders are absolutely necessary, Frenchman Umtiti, Dutchman Virgil van Dijk and Vertonghen are all potential targets. ”

"If they can bring them all, I won't hesitate."

Mourinho believes in his own vision of people, and these people have the potential to become pillars in time.

"The other is the midfielder, I have a lot of ideas in this position, and the combination of Fellaini and the new youngster is not a long-term solution."

"I want to take the food."

'I will try to sign Casemiro, Luka Modric and Andres Iniesta in Barcelona at Real Madrid.

"Goalkeepers and strikers, we don't need reinforcements, we are the strongest in Europe."

The last sentence Mourinho said with confidence.

After listening to him, Malcolm was shocked.
