Chapter 776, I'll Handle It

When Enrique heard Bartomeu's words, he immediately understood the meaning: "Mr. Chairman, is this... appropriate?"

Bartomeu sneered: "In international football, nothing is inappropriate. My goal is to buy the players I want and buy them at the lowest price. Other things are not important."

"Wouldn't that have some negative impact on the club?"

"Hmph, if we don't take the initiative to admit it, who can know that it is behind our backs?"

Hearing what Bartomeu said, a club official in charge of public relations smiled and said: "I think the chairman's decision is very correct. We have gained a lot of benefits in this way over the years, and there has never been any negative impact. .”

"Back then, Henry joined the noble Barcelona for his dream of winning the Champions League. In the end, we helped him realize his dream of the Champions League."

"Back then, Cesc Fabregas, in order to return to the place where his dream began, did not hesitate to subsidize the transfer fee of 5 million euros out of his own pocket, and he will also come to our Barcelona!"

"Suarez has repeatedly expressed his admiration for Barcelona in the media, and finally left Liverpool and came to Barcelona."

"I don't need to list similar examples. Don't worry, Mr. Chairman. I will go to Manchester now and have a good talk with Dembele, so that he can cooperate with our transfer work and strive for the shortest possible time. The transfer fee will allow Dembele to join Barcelona this winter!"

Kintag doesn't know about Barcelona's tricks behind the scenes, nor does Manchester United.

However, a few days later, Dembele suddenly accepted an exclusive interview with Wolff of The Sun. In the interview, he talked about his love for Barcelona.

Not only that, Dembele also publicly complained that he did not get enough opportunities to play, and he could no longer be promoted at Manchester United.

The implication of this is that Manchester United can't do it, I'm going to Barcelona!

This interview caused an uproar at Manchester United!

After Jin Taige learned of this, he severely reprimanded Dembele! At the beginning of coaching the team, he has established a rule: Players are absolutely not allowed to talk about the internal affairs of the team privately during interviews, and they are absolutely not allowed to do anything that affects the image of the team!

And Dembele's behavior of publicly showing favor to Barcelona has already angered Kintag's bottom line!

Don't look at Jin Taige who is usually very friendly to the players, everyone is like a family. But once someone made a mistake, Jin Taige would never show mercy!

He issued a ticket to Dembele: a fine of 20,000 euros and a two-match ban in the team!

Dembele was very dissatisfied with being punished! He thought that he was just speaking from his heart, and he didn't have any radical remarks. He went to see Jin Taige alone and expressed his dissatisfaction with Jin Taige's punishment!

But Jin Taige ignored him at all. He just reiterated the rules of the team to Dembele again, and then told him to accept the punishment honestly. If he commits the crime again, the punishment will be more severe next time!

In the next few days, Dembele was very slack in training and looked self-righteous. And in a fight with Salah, there was a conflict with the Egyptians.

While Dembele was tossing about at the Manchester United club, Barcelona also responded. They sent new offers again.

In Woodward's office, Kintag slammed the offer on the ground: "38 million euros? That's a lot, 3 million more than last time's 35 million euros. They really take themselves seriously ? Or because we have to sell Dembele?"

Woodward leaned on the chair, he let out a long breath, and said with some helplessness: "Tiger, the current situation is like this, we really have to sell. I have received the news that Barcelona has sent someone a few days ago I have been to Manchester and met with Dembele and his agent Sissoko, and on the second day, the interview with the "Sun" came, and the interview with Entertainment and Sports Channel 2 was also in place.

Now the whole world knows that Dembele doesn't want to stay at Manchester United. "

Kintag looked at Woodward coldly: "You mean, there are people from Barcelona behind Dembele doing tricks?"

"Looking at the current situation, it should be like this," Woodward frowned, "Not only Dembele's incident, but even Umtiti's transfer before, was also manipulated by Barcelona, ​​​​but last time they didn't It's just a success."

The corner of Jin Taige's mouth twitched: "Since Umtiti's lesson has been learned, Barcelona dare to do this? They are not afraid that I will bite to death and not let people go?"

Woodward analyzed: "This time Dembele's transfer is different from Umtiti's. Umtiti has just signed with the team. He still has a four-year contract. We have plenty of time to talk to Umtiti. Titi see-saw; but Dembele's contract with the team is only more than one year left now, it is already 2017, wait until the summer of 2018, Dembele will become a free agent, then Barcelona can be a free agent Take Dembele to Camp Nou for nothing."

"So Barcelona dared to play like this this time, and they also determined the time of this contract. If we don't let Dembele leave, we won't get a penny after one year; if we sell Dembele to them now , At least more than 30 million euros can be transferred. This is the biggest reliance of Barcelona."

After hearing this, Jin Taige raised his eyebrows, he was silent for a while, and then said to Woodward: "Ed, I want to ask you something, do you believe in my ability to tap young people?"

Woodward was taken aback, he didn't know why Jin Taige asked: "Of course I believe you! Look at your recent signings and sales, they are all top-notch strength! Low entry and high output, low price and high energy, You see people more viciously than agents and scouts."

Jin Taige nodded: "Do you believe it or not, I can dig out another Dembele, two, three, or more?"

Woodward replied firmly: "Believe it! As long as you are there, Manchester United will never encounter a dilemma where no one is available."

"Okay, since you said that, I'm relieved. The boss promised me that I have the final say on the club's transfer, so I will handle Dembele's matter. But Ed, whether it is sold at a high price in the end , or lose money, don’t feel bad about it.” When Jin Taige said this, his voice was low, even a little cold.

Woodward was stunned: "Tiger, you are right, you have the final say on the club's player transfers. But I don't understand, what are you going to do with Dembele?"
