Chapter 190: An Unexpected Interview
Maybe it's because Manchester United and Manchester City both won the Carabao Cup semi-finals yesterday, but today, by God's grace, Manchester City is a sunny day. The noon sun was very dazzling, and the snow from the previous few days was irradiated and melted a lot. At this time, in front of the Bright Red Bar in Manchester, the owner Butler opened the door to let the bar breathe.
The Bright Red Bar never opened until the afternoon, but today the boss Butler sent the bartender out early to buy various wines. Because Manchester United won a big victory yesterday, the crazy Manchester United fans drank almost all the beer in the bar, and the sales of high alcohol also doubled, so Butler prepared early and stocked alcohol in advance.
Because Manchester United's next game is three days away, he has enough time to clean up the bar. The first thing to do is to take advantage of the sunny weather and open the windows and doors for ventilation.
But just as Butler opened the door, he saw a few people hurriedly walking towards the bar. He took a closer look and was immediately happy: "Rodney, you came really early today."
It was Rodney from the "King of All Demons" Association who came. Butler saw that his expression was a little bit wrong, and didn't think too much about it: "Why, did you quarrel with that tigress in your family?"
"Much more serious than that!" said Rodney, frowning.
"Don't be at the door, come in and talk."
A few people walked into the bar, and not long after, Cook, the president of the "King of Demons", also came, and after a while, several people came one after another. These people are all members of the "King of Demons" .
Butler felt that something was wrong with them: "Why did you come so early today, did something happen?"
Rodney spoke quickly: "Butler, have you read today's "Sun"? There is a report on Rooney. Rooney said he wants to leave Manchester United!"
Butler smiled: "You can't be hungover, can you believe what the "Sun" says?"
But Cook handed over a newspaper in his hand: "Butler, read this."
Butler looked at Cook with a formal look on his face. He took the newspaper and read it carefully. He saw an interview on the front page of The Sun: Rooney's Future!
The reporter for this exclusive interview is Kintag's old friend Wolf, who wrote a sensational interview eloquently in the article. This interview presents news in the form of dialogue.
"Wayne, do you have any dissatisfaction with Manchester United?"
"I came here 10 years ago and it was Sir Alex Ferguson who made me a decent player."
"Not bad? Wayne, you are too humble. With your status and ability level, you can definitely be called the number one star in England. No, it should not be an exaggeration to be the number one star in the Premier League."
"Thank you, Miao Zan."
"This is not a compliment, but a fact."
"Well...Although I dare not claim to be the number one star, I think my contribution to Manchester United should be recognized, so I should also be treated accordingly."
"It's true. Van Persie, who just joined the team, can get a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds. Why is your weekly salary only 150,000 pounds? It's really unfair."
Butler was watching, and the fat Rodney couldn't stand it anymore: "Is Rooney still not satisfied? Apart from Van Persie, the veterans of Manchester United, Giggs and Carrick, have a weekly salary of only 160,000 pounds About 150,000 pounds is not enough for him!"
Several other fans were also very indignant: "Exactly! Rooney is too greedy, isn't he? He doesn't even think about who promoted him to this height!"
Butler sneered: "Maybe after Ferguson retired, in the Manchester United team, Rooney no longer looked down on anyone, including Kim Tag."
He turned to the next page of the newspaper and continued reading. The following is still the dialogue between Wolfe and Rooney.
"Wayne, if Manchester United can't meet your request, do you have a suitable transfer target? I believe that once a world-class superstar like you reveals his intention to transfer, the big giants will flock to him.
"
"If possible, I still plan to stay at Manchester United. After all, I have been here for ten years and I still have feelings for the Red Devils."
"But as far as I know, Kintag doesn't seem to be planning to give you a salary increase. I remember that Mourinho has always favored you. Last summer, Real Madrid and Bayern also prepared to offer you."
"Well... Mourinho did call me, but I refused at the time because my heart still belongs to the Red Devils; and as far as I know, Bayern is currently preparing to make an offer to invite me to join, and they have already talked to me. My agent talked about it; as for Real Madrid and several other clubs, there is no real progress yet."
"Wayne, I believe that if you transfer, the transfer fee will be sky-high."
"Well, if I can, I still want to stay at Manchester United, as long as I can get enough respect and treatment."
At this time, Cook slammed his fist on the table: "Thanks to me cheering for him in the game for so many years, it is unforgivable that he treats the club like this!"
Rodney was furious: "Back then Class of 92 dominated European football. When did I hear that they were arguing with the club for a salary increase? Although Glazer has a lot of dissatisfaction after he came, the salary is still worthy." These players. Why, seeing an oil tycoon coming next door with a high salary, I was tempted and ready to leave?"
Several other fans were also aggrieved: "This kind of greedy guy, leave the team as soon as possible, so as not to spoil the atmosphere of the team!"
At this time, everyone in the bar was discussing and venting their dissatisfaction, but Butler looked at a group photo on the wall. It was the family portrait of the Manchester United team that won the Premier League after the end of last season. He looked at the family portrait and was silent for a long time, thinking deeply...
At the same time, in Woodward's office at the Carrington training base, Kintag and Woodward each held a copy of today's "The Sun". The two had been chatting for a long time, but at this moment the room fell into silence.
After a while, Woodward asked seriously: "Tiger, this matter is very serious, what are you going to do?"
Jin Taige asked back: "What is the opinion of the board of directors?"
Woodward raised his fist: "For this matter, the board of directors unanimously decided to delegate power, and you will handle it."
"Let me handle it? Well, that's good. I am very satisfied with the decision of the board of directors."
Kintag stood up, and he came to the window, looking at the snow on the training ground outside the window, and the biting cold wind was raging over Manchester. He turned his back to Woodward, without turning around, and said firmly: "My opinion is that if Rooney doesn't want to stay at Manchester United, then get out of here as soon as possible!"
