The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 267

267 The New Season Has Come to an End

Villarreal quickly replied.

Not for sale!

Yes, Villarreal are not ready to sell Riquelme right now. Riquelme is now the absolute core of Villarreal and with him in Villarreal’s current form he is doing very well.

Villarreal are clearly not going to let their team fall apart!

Villarreal now has a group of South American football geniuses, led by Juan Sorin, Diego Fran, Arruabarena, Luciano Figueroa, Marcos Seine and Gonzalo Rodriguez.

The Villarreal side are very strong. Last season they finished third in La Liga and this season they are playing in the Champions League.

Villarreal have very high goals and even want to win the Champions League. How could such a male ambitious team take over the heart of their club?

After Zhong Cheng learned of this result, he was not surprised in the slightest.

Zhong Cheng knew that this would happen before he made the offer. Looks like he and Riquelme are out of luck, Zhong Cheng is looking for a new target.

Zhong Cheng also found a good seedling in Spanish football, and that is the Bats Valencia player David Silva. David Silva is still young, only 19 years old. He was too short, too weak, and many teams looked down on him.

But he was a good genius in Spanish football.

Although David Silva does not have a place in Valencia now, Valencia values him very much. He was on loan last season and is said to be ready to go out on loan this season.

Real Vigo Celta want to loan David Silva’s La Liga side.

Zhong Cheng has made an offer to Valencia in the hope of signing David Silva. However, Zhong Cheng knew that this transaction would not be successful. Valencia are very keen on David Silva and they are only on loan and not selling.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Valencia to reject Zhong Cheng. David Silva and the others wouldn’t sell him. They wanted to keep David Silva on the team.

Zhong Chengshi sighed. A good player is not so easy to dig up!

Zhong Cheng was in a dilemma now. Who would he bring in this time? It was very difficult to bring in a local superstar. After all, he had a local hukou in England. This was worth a lot of money!

Zhong Cheng had no choice but to continue searching. At this time, Zhong Cheng turned his gaze to France, where he was addicted to poaching.

This time, Zhong Cheng was interested in a player from the Ligue 1 club. The player is a classic midfielder, a full-blown attacking midfielder with some defensive and interceptive capabilities. His most prominent feature was the front area of the restricted area, where he was able to get rid of and attack the opponent’s goal in a way that the opponent could not imagine. His in-situ technique was very good, and his ability to get rid of the ball was very outstanding. He was extremely good at handling balls in a small space.

Moreover, his positioning ability was also very outstanding. He was good at long range shooting, and he also had the ability to compete for the top of the goal. This was truly an outstanding ability.

Many Frenchmen are calling him Zidane’s successor, Joan Gourcuff, the 2003 French Youth Cup winner.

Yes, he was the French genius who joined AC Milan after three years on the bench and didn’t play. But after returning to France, he quickly rose to become a French football player, and became the main force of the French national team and the core of the midfield.

Joan Gourcuff is a very capable player. Zhong Cheng has taken a fancy to him and thinks he is very suitable for Leeds United. In the counter-attack, players like Joan Gourcuff were exactly what Leeds needed.

What Zhong Cheng was interested in was his overall offensive ability, especially the creativity and imagination in the front area of the forbidden area. Moreover, this fellow also had a beautiful long-range shot and set-piece, which was what Leeds United needed now.

The current Gourcuff is only 19 years old. He comes from a French football family and his father is a football coach. It was his father who first promoted Gourcuff to the first team, and his father really did not avoid relatives.

At first, both of them played for Lorian’s Club. It was here that Old Gourcuff let the young Gourcuff into the first team. Only Old Gourcuff joined Ryan. At that time, he brought Gourcuff here with him. Gourcuff quickly became a regular player for Ryan’s first team.

Zhong Cheng vaguely remembered that Gourcuff had become the absolute main force of the Ryan team this season, playing 36 games for the team and scoring six goals, thus being valued and introduced by the Italian Rossoneri.

Zhong Cheng felt that he could not give the Rossoneri a chance, so he directly made an offer to Ryan.

–Division Line–

Christian Gourcuff is preparing for the next round of the Ligue 1. He has a big goal this season. He wants to win the league. Although it was difficult, he never gave up.

His other goal is to nurture his son Joan, hoping that he can go to a better league as soon as possible, which is very helpful to Joan’s growth.

To tell the truth, Christian Gourcuff had some selfishness in his heart. He was nurturing his son. However, his son is also very competitive, strength is not ordinary, young he put on the team jersey no. 10 did not attract any rumors, he is proud of his son.

In Christian Gourcuff’s eyes, his son has the ability to make the French national team. Instead of staying at the club’s training ground, Christian Gourcuff feels unfair for his son.

It was at this moment that Christian Gourcuff saw the comparative offer from Leeds United and learned that Zhong Cheng wanted to bring in his son.

Christian Gourcuff knew Zhong Cheng very well. Zhong Cheng’s reputation in France was very famous, because Zhong Cheng had nurtured a low-level league player to become a French international. Many people were guessing what kind of magic Zhong Cheng had. However, the media had used a lot of ink to report this person.

As a colleague, Christian Gourcuff studied Zhong Cheng specifically, and the more he studied, the more powerful he felt Zhong Cheng was. In his opinion, Zhong Cheng’s vision could be called a miracle. Look at the young players he brought in, which one of them didn’t shine brightly?

Right now, this Leeds United team is simply a treasure!

Now that Zhong Cheng had taken a fancy to his son, he was naturally very excited. This meant that his son was truly a genius, and Zhong Cheng’s vision told the truth.

Christian Gourcuff was delighted that he was going to sell his son to a wealthy club. However, now that Zhong Cheng had stepped in, Christian Gourcuff hesitated. His absolute decision to send Joan Gourcuff to Leeds United might be a better choice. Perhaps his son would be the next Ribery!

Christian Gourcuff was tempted. He had almost agreed to the deal. He was happy to see his son go to Zhong Cheng’s team.

Christian Gourcuff, however, did not immediately agree. He called his son Gourcuff over and asked for his son’s opinion.

Yoan Gourcuff was very surprised to learn that Zhong Cheng valued him!

The name Zhong Cheng has a very important place in the minds of many young French players. They all want to become the second Ribery, the second Las Diarra, the second Zimbonda …

Joan Gourcuff was very excited. He nodded.

Christian Gourcuff said with relief: “Leeds United’s regular midfielder Ryan Modric is seriously injured and will be out of action for at least two months.” Right now, Zhong Cheng is looking for the front waist all over the world to replace the injured Modric. If you go, you will get a chance very soon. I’m sure you won’t let the opportunity slip away from you, will you? ”

Joan Gourcuff nodded firmly and said, “I know!”

Originally, Christian Gourcuff wanted his son to be a regular player for Ryan this season, but this season, Joan Gourcuff didn’t have to worry about playing. However, compared to going to Leeds United and playing under Zhong Cheng, it was still a bit inferior.

Christian Gourcuff said, “Son, I believe in you! Go to Leeds United and fight!”

Joan Gourcuff kept nodding, showing great confidence!

–Division Line–

Zhong Cheng received a reply from Ryan Club that he would be able to take Yoan Gourcuff away for £ 2 million.

Zhong remembered that the Rossoneri had bought Yoan Gourcuff for 3.5 million euros next year in their previous life. However, at that time, Yoann Gourcuff had already played with Ryan’s first-team regular for a season and had paid a certain price.

Now that Joan Gourcuff has only played a few games in the Ligue 1, the £ 2 m price is still a bit high. Zhong was bargaining with Ryan Club and in the end Leeds United bought Joan Gourcuff for £ 1. 8 million.

This was a relatively high price. After all, when Zhong Cheng introduced the other young players, he was only worth a few hundred thousand pounds. Gourcuff alone had spent 1.8 million pounds. It could be seen that Zhong Cheng still valued Gourcuff more.

To be honest, Zhong Cheng is still a little nervous about introducing Gourcuff. He doesn’t know if Gourcuff can adapt to the atmosphere of the Premier League and he doesn’t know if Gourcuff can play. After all, Gourcuff hadn’t fought in Italy in his previous life, so Zhong Cheng was still a little nervous.

However, Zhong Cheng was prepared to teach Gourcuff a lesson and let him learn from Albertini to see if he could change his name for this little fellow. He hoped that he could make a name for himself at the Leeds United Club.

After Zhong Cheng had dealt with Gourcuff, the English and French media had been paying great attention to the news. They wanted to see what kind of virtue this Gourcuff had to be valued by Zhong Cheng, and he had even spent 1.8 million pounds on Leeds United. Was this really a genius?

The French media were very excited. They claimed that France had produced another genius and that the future French national team would be incomparably strong. It could not be said that the second World Cup trophy of the French national team was about to arrive.

At this time, the French media were praising Zhong Cheng and Gourcuff. Gurkuff suddenly received more attention, and he was also under a lot of pressure.
