Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Three young boys, Sean Wallace, Carl Olsen and Lee Winter, hugged each other excitedly.

"I said, children, let's go, or we will delay your father's business." Bill Rose, who was on the side, urged the three little boys.

"What time did you make an appointment for me?" Lee George asked Bill Rose.

"A café on the edge of the training ground after they finished training."

"There won't be paparazzi, will you?"

"There must be, after all, they are free agents now, their whereabouts are undecided, and many teams have made offers."

"So we have a lot of competitors."

'Milan, Inter and a couple of other Italian teams, and I've heard that Tottenham are interested in him as well.

'At 31, you can play in all positions in midfield.' George Lee spoke of the player's strengths: "Physical, tough, balanced in attack and defence, can complete the full coverage from the penalty area to the opponent's penalty area, and if we partner with Graveson in midfield, I think we can play with almost all the big teams in the Premier League next season." ”

"Why did such a good player join a relegation team like you?"

"Hey, Bill, you're also a shareholder of Leeds United, and you had a share in the acquisition of Leeds United."

That's right, the acquisition of Leeds United was completed at the end of last season, officially Li Mack, Lee Jim and Bill Rose, which means that George Lee as the head coach of Leeds United can be said to be an iron rice bowl, as long as Leeds United's results are not too bad, he can be said to be almost never fired, who let the team owner is his father, father-in-law and brother.

However, some fans were a little dissatisfied with this kind of confession, but with George Lee leading Leeds United to a successful relegation at the end of the season, these grievances have subsided.

"I'm not here to help you find a serious job, and you don't want to take over my business." Bill Ross came to the parking lot, opened the door of the van, and let the three children go in first.

"Bill, in England, the thing you're selling isn't legal." Lee George made a joke about Ross's profession.

"I'm a banker, an investment businessman, and now I'm ready to move into real estate."

"That's right, you used to sell that thing, but now you've switched to loan sharking, there's nothing wrong with it."

George Lee sat in the back with three children, while Rose got into the co-pilot.

Rose turned back again and asked the three children, "Boys, where are we going?" To see Van Gogh or to see the windmills? ”

"To the Amsterdam Arena." The three of them spoke in unison.

Three days later, at a restaurant on the edge of the port of Rotterdam, George Lee was chatting with a man his age.

Jordi Cruyff, the son of Johan Cruyff, has played for clubs such as Barcelona, Manchester United, Celta, Alaves, Espanyol, etc., and Jordi Cruyff's playing career may not be as outstanding compared to his father's illustrious career. Carrying his father's aura, Jordi entered the Barcelona academy, but in that Barcelona team, he was always just a substitute. In 1996, after Cruyff Sr. left Barcelona, Jordi opted to join Manchester United. This time, he caught up with the Red Devils' golden generation. The highlight of Jordi Cruyff's career was spent in Alaves, where he helped the team reach the final of the UEFA Cup in his debut season, but unfortunately, Alaves failed to continue his dark horse in the final, and finally lost 4-5 to the "Reds" Liverpool.

The pair met in 1996, when Cruyff Jr. joined Manchester United in the summer of that year, while George Lee joined Leeds United that winter. Later, Lee went to Ajax, and before he went, he communicated a lot with Cruyff Jr., and the two became more acquainted.

At the end of the 2003/04 season, Jordi Cruyff decided not to renew his contract with Espanyol and decided to leave voluntarily, joining Leeds United as coach at the invitation of George Lee.

"So, don't you need me to register you with one, how good it is to be a coach and a player again." George Lee seems to be in a good mood.

"Don't think about it, you want to give me one money and two jobs." Cruyff Jr. rejected his offer, "So, Edgar agreed to join Leeds United?" ”

"That's not necessarily, if someone offers a very high price, the kind that is ridiculously high, I think he will still join another team."

"That's how you convinced him, after all, after all..."

"We're a relegation team after all, aren't we?"

'If he does come, I'm really looking forward to the Premier League this season.' Cruyff Jr. continued to ask, "How did you convince him to join, tell me." ”

"It's nothing more than a high salary, a high signing fee, and at the same time a high tactical position."

"Smashed with money?"

'No, I told him that as long as he was at Leeds for one day, his place in the main team would not waver. If one day he wants to go to Holland, I will not stop him. George Lee continued, "I told him about our recent results in the transfer market, there are a couple of Dutchmen and he won't be alone in the dressing room at least. If he goes to Inter, first of all, Stankovic is a veteran of Mancini and will definitely occupy a starting spot, and the other will have to compete with Cambiasso and Zanetti. ”

"Also, with his temper, if he sits on the bench for a long time, he will have to complain to the media and then fall out with the manager."

"You have a point, but I don't dare say that."

"Hehe, I'm tired enough these days, it's Eindhoven again, it's Feyenoord again, after today's transfer talks, I can always rest for a while, I knew that being a coach was so hard, I might as well not retire."

"It's too late for you to regret it now, I'll register you, and you can go up and play next season."

"You're going to get around me." Cruyff Jr. begged for mercy again, "Hey, Robin, here. ”

Cruyff Jr. was greeted by George Lee's final target in the Netherlands, Feyenoord's 21-year-old striker, Robin van Persie and his agent.

"Hello." "Hello." Several people shook hands with each other.

"Coach Li, I didn't expect you to come in person." The broker was the first to speak.

"It just so happened that in the Netherlands, let's talk about a few transfers." George Lee replied.

"I heard about Denis Romedahl, and two days ago I heard you were pursuing Edgar Davis." The agent is well aware of Leeds United's recent moves in the transfer market, "Coupled with your previous signings of Jesper Glenschal and Thomas Graveson, Leeds United will definitely be able to hit the upper reaches of the league next season." ”

"Thank you." "Thank you." George Lee and Cruyff Jr. took the rainbow fart.

"However, you already have so many good players in the front court, why do you want to buy us Robin?" The agent changed his words, "If it is a substitute, Robin will not accept it, Robin has previously won the Young Player of the Year award from the Dutch Football Association." ”

The agent did not mention Van Persie's goals, assists and other performances this season, because this season Persie has completely broken with Feyenoord manager Van Marwijk and can only sit on the bench for most games, Van Persie has only scored six goals in 33 appearances in all competitions this season. The relationship between the two sides has completely broken, and Feyenoord has begun to actively peddle Van Persie, but many giants are very cautious because of his "criminal record".

Arsenal was very interested in Van Persie before, and wanted to sign Van Persie at the end of the season, but was cut by Leeds United, and kept raising the price with Arsenal, from 2.5 million pounds to 3.5 million pounds.

The broker is very dedicated, not only boasting about his clients there, but also trying to help his clients win a better tactical position.

George Lee said something at this time that surprised Van Persie and his agent.

'Mark Viduka moved to Middlesbrough, so his number 9 shirt is empty, and of course Robin can opt for the number 10 shirt as Ruud did when he went to Manchester United. Number 9 or number 10, Robin which number do you prefer? ”
