Thorpe Arch Training Ground.

Under the setting sun, the original green turf was draped in a golden coat. Then three people walked out of the office building, walked to the edge of the lawn and stopped, and the shadows were stretched long on the lawn.

"Is Real Madrid still refusing to let go?"

"They don't want to sell Woodgate this summer."

"Is it because the price has not been negotiated?"

"That's not it, when Woodgate brought in from Newcastle United, Real Madrid spent 13.4 million pounds, and now Woodgate can sell a few million."

"Then why...... Oh, I see. George Lee finally thought of something and didn't continue.

"That's right, if you shoot him like this, it will represent the failure of Real Madrid's recruitment, and they are not short of more than 10 million, mainly because of face." Tony Wilson, the team's general manager, said what Lee didn't say.

"Then let's rent it first."

"Is there anything else you want to emphasize?"

"With the buyout contract, I don't want to just get Woodgate for one year."

"Okay, then I'll try to communicate with Real Madrid again."

Eddie Gray, the team's director of football who was standing on the side, was finally able to speak and began to ask the two.

"Do you really want to buy Jonathan back?"

In Gray's heart, he really wanted Woodgate to return to Leeds United, after all, the batch of "Young Guards" at that time were all cultivated by Gray. Harry Colwill, Ian Hart, Alan Smith, and Jonathan Woodgate.

Woodgate is not in a very good situation at Real Madrid, or it can be said to be terrible.

In his first season at Real Madrid, he was sidelined for 17 months due to a thigh injury. In the second season, he not only scored an own goal in his debut, but also received a red card and left the game early. This was followed by injuries and stoppages, and it is estimated that by the end of the season, there will be no more than 10 appearances.

Although Gray wants his former disciples to return to Elanlu, he also has his own concerns.

First of all, it is the attribute of Woodgate's glass man, it can be said that since he went to Newcastle and Real Madrid, Woodgate's thigh injury has been with him, which has seriously affected his competitive state, and if he returns to Leeds United again, will it still be injured.

Secondly, there is the issue of Woodgate's personality, which is what Eddie Gray worries the most.

In January 2000, Woodgate and teammate Lee Bowyer were involved in a violent assault on an Asian American student. The two men were criminally charged with the incident, and they were questioned by police in April, and Woodgate was sentenced to community service for participating in a brawl in December. Woodgate was also omitted from the national team.

In April 2002, Woodgate went to a bar to socialize, and he watched two girls fight, and threatened to do it while the two girls were fighting. As a result, Woodgate's attitude angered both girls at the same time, and Woodgate was beaten up instead. Because of the beating, which caused a jaw injury, Woodgate was disqualified from the World Cup.

In short, Woodgate was a bit of a nouveau riche when he was younger, and it is said that every time he went to the bar, he acted like an upstart, causing dissatisfaction among other customers.

"I think after two years of living abroad, he will grow up." George Lee said to Gray that he seemed to be very optimistic about Woodgate's joining.

"What about injuries, we all know Jonathan is a ......," Gray continued to ask, after all, he was still not at ease.

"As long as he can play as well as he should when he's healthy, I don't want to put pressure on him, and the first thing he needs to do when he comes back is to get his confidence back."

"Confident?" Gray muttered silently.

At this time, two players came to the three of them from the rest room of the training ground.

"Boss, manager, director, what are you doing here, are you discussing any major matters?" It was Smith who spoke.

'We're looking at Manchester United's offer.'

"Manchester United? Who are they going to buy? ”

"Buy you." George Lee said to Smith, "Ferguson told you to play in the back. ”

"You can let me go, if you don't talk about Leeds going to Manchester United, I won't be able to do it at the back. You might as well ask your teacher to consider Graveson and their serious midfielders. With that, Smith prepared to go to the parking lot with Van Persie.

Then, George Lee stopped the two of them.

"I've heard that you two haven't been to nightclubs lately."

"Isn't this the end of the season, we are afraid that it will affect the performance of the team, so we have found something else to do."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Lee was curious to see what else the two men could do.

"I'm going to release a record, but they all say my singing voice is about ...... like you," Smith realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject, "Robin was painting and I wanted to model him, but he refused." ”

Tony Wilson's brow furrowed when he heard that Smith was going to be an oil painting model, and then his eyes widened as if he had been inspired by something.

Van Persie was born into a family of artists, his father Bob was a renowned sculptor and his mother Russ was a painter and jewelry designer. So it's not surprising that Van Persie paints oil paintings, but there are not many things that can calm down Van Persie's short-tempered temper.

"It's okay, you should relax and relax, as long as it doesn't affect the team's games and training, you guys go out properly and indulge and indulge, I won't stop it."

George Li is also afraid that the main players of his two teams will be suffocated, after all, these two people were the famous "nightclub duo" of Leeds United, not only went by themselves, but also took the young players in the team with them.

Now that the two of them had suddenly changed sex, the Bynes men had become regulars in the Holbeck area.

"Coach, do you mean it really?"

In fact, Smith and Van Persie don't want to go, now that Smith is the captain of the team, he has higher requirements for himself, he thinks that his words and deeds represent Leeds United, so sometimes he needs to correct himself.

Since Smith didn't go, Van Persie also felt that it was boring to go alone, so he just played with Smith a little bit, and went to nightclubs with a few other young players, he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

"Go ahead, you can't be so tight all the time, just don't go too far."

George Lee also disregarded that doing so would leave Britain without a rock singer and the Netherlands without an oil painter.

"Boss, can you lend us two your motorcycles?"

"Get out!"

Ever since George Lee took Delwig, who wore a blue vest, to the training ground to get a pizza that day, everyone on the team knew that their head coach owned a scooter.

Gary Kelly even joked that the team would buy one by one and drive a motorcycle to a nearby city in the future, instead of taking a bus.

George Lee hehe, he promised to drive a scooter all the way to the game, and the strength of the players on the court was guaranteed to be 5% off.

^^^

The next day, when George Lee came to the training ground, he found that there were a lot of reporters outside the door.

After seeing George Li appear, he hurriedly surrounded him.

"Coach Li, what do you think about your players clashing with people in nightclubs......

"Did you know that Van Persie and Smith were taken away by the police last night?"

"Are the two people from the club who came forward to bail them out?"

Hearing the reporter's question, George Li, who was not ready to deal with the reporter, suddenly turned around.

"What did you say!"
