Now that the transfer window is closing for the winter season, Leeds United are still struggling to bring in Bresciano.

Tim Collins returned and went straight to Zhong Cheng’s office.

Sitting at his desk, Zhong Cheng stirred the steaming coffee in front of him as usual and asked, “How is it going?”

Tim Collins said with a serious expression, “Boss, it’s very difficult to buy Bresciano directly. Palermo seem to have a lot of expectations for Bresciano. They are prepared to give Bresciano more time!”

Zhong Cheng frowned and said, “Does that mean Palermo are unwilling to take action against Bresciano?”

If Bresciano couldn’t take it down, then the situation would be terrible. Zhong Cheng had to find another replacement in such a short period of time. However, time didn’t wait for anyone. Zhong Cheng really didn’t know if he could find it.

Tim Collins immediately said: “Boss, but the players want to give it a try at Leeds United. He almost joined Leeds United back then, and Leeds United are so popular now, as well as in the Champions League. Bresciano is eager to join Leeds United!”

Zhong Chengshi nodded slowly and said, “Since that’s the case, we still have a chance. You went to ask Bresciano what the penalty is.”

Tim Collins said straightforwardly, “Boss, Bresciano told me personally that the penalty is 20 million euros!”

Zhong Cheng raised his eyebrows. This penalty was very high.

If it was 20 million euros to buy Bresciano, Zhong Cheng would have to consider it.

Bresciano is not worth that much money. More importantly, he hasn’t played a few games in this season’s transfer to Palermo. Logically speaking, his status will only drop. He won’t even need 10 million euros to buy Bresciano at this time.

Naturally, Zhong Cheng would not treat this as a grievance. After all, many powerful players were worth less than 20 million euros.

Take a look at the offer recently made to Juventus by the French giants Paris Saint Germain for Trezeguet, who are only offering 12 million euros.

Of course, this is mainly because Juventus are currently in Serie B, and because the players’ minds are fluctuating. Many people want to rob them by fire.

However, this has already explained the problem. A bid of 20 million euros for Bresciano is definitely not acceptable.

Zhong Cheng shook his head and said, “This penalty is too high. We can’t be cheats!”

Tim Collins nodded his head. He also felt that the price was too high, so they weren’t in high spirits when they returned to Haas. The task given to him by the boss was not completed, and his mood was extremely depressed.

Zhong Cheng had sent Tim Collins away. It seemed that he had to find a new replacement. If he really couldn’t, then bring Azar, 16, up. With Azar and Musa Denbelle, he should be able to withstand it. Moreover, there was also Gareth Bale, so there shouldn’t be any problem.

Since that was the case, Zhong Cheng could only give up Bresciano.

In the fourth round of the FA Cup, Leeds United played Watford in their home game against the Champions League. Leeds United had some connections with Watford. Zhong Cheng loaned Shadley to Watford and it was as if Shadley was in the starting lineup.

Zhong Cheng had allowed the main players of Leeds United to rest this match, and he had sent out a half-main and half-substitute starting line-up.

Leeds United took the lead at the start of the game and scored easily.

Leeds United scored one goal each in the first and second half and beat Wolford 2-0. Watford don’t think much of this game. They gave up this game and are now focusing more on the Premier League. They want to make their way to the Premier League next season.

Therefore, the Leeds United team was able to play more easily in this round, directly winning the match.

Zhong Cheng was relieved that this match did not consume much money from Leeds United. However, Rogers and DiMatteo were very worried because they were also prepared to give up on this match and reduce the battlefield of Leeds United.

They didn’t expect that they would win the match in such a situation. Then Leeds United will be hampered by the FA Cup and will have to expend some energy.

Half a month later, the fifth round of the FA Cup will begin. Leeds United’s opponent is Ipswich, and this team is not very strong.

It was precisely because of this that Rogers and the others were worried.

The opponent was too weak. If Leeds United continued to win, would Leeds United give up? Judging from Zhong Cheng’s personality, he shouldn’t give up.

Worried, very worried.

Right now, Leeds United did not have that much of a mind to think about this matter. Their minds are now on the game against Arsenal.

It was the second leg of the Carling Cup semi-final against Arsenal at Leeds United.

Leeds United lost 4-1 in the first leg. This time they want to reverse Arsenal, it is very, very difficult, even impossible.

At this time, the outside media all believed that Leeds United had been eliminated, they simply could not reverse the Arsenal team.

That’s right, the score difference of one to four was really too big. Arsenal still scored four away goals. In other words, in this match, Leeds United’s 3-0 score would not be able to defeat Arsenal and advance to the final.

Leeds United will have to beat Arsenal 4-0 to eliminate them. Of course, four to one was fine. The two sides were going to enter overtime, or even a point-to-point battle.

However, it was clear that no one expected Leeds United to have a chance.

Leeds United are finished now, completely finished.

There were also differences within Leeds United regarding this match. Some people thought that they had already scored this score, so it was better for them to give up. It was good to concentrate on playing the league and the Champions League. There was no need to fight Arsenal head-on in this match and expend too much energy.

They believe that Leeds United do not have the energy to deal with so many games and that selective abandonment is necessary.

Of course, many people also feel that giving up like this is very unwilling, because the next round is the Carling Cup final, so close to the championship, how can Leeds United give up?

Even though we are behind 4-1, our Leeds United team may have a chance to turn things around, right?

Yes, there are big differences within Leeds United. However, there was no internal strife, because only Zhong Cheng had the power to make decisions within the Leeds Union. As long as Zhong Cheng made a decision, everyone had to follow his decision.

To tell the truth, Zhong Cheng was unwilling to give up.

One to four. What’s wrong?

If Liverpool can play the Istanbul miracle in the Champions League, why can’t Leeds United play the London Emirates Stadium miracle?

Zhong Cheng will not give up, this game is going to fight Arsenal.

However, Zhong Cheng still had a lot of questions to think about. What happens to Leeds United and Liverpool in three days if they clash with Arsenal?

The Premier League is the most important thing for Leeds United. The fact that Liverpool can beat Manchester United, who are number one in the Premier League, shows that they are very, very strong. Wasn’t Leeds United courting death when they fought Arsenal to the death against Liverpool?

This is also an important reason for those who propose to give up the game.

At this time, Zhong Cheng had to seriously consider whether he valued the league or the Carling Cup. This stumped Zhong Cheng. All of this was caused by injuries. If it weren’t for the injuries of those players, Zhong Cheng would not have considered these issues and directly fought Arsenal and Liverpool to the end!

Now, he really had to think about how this match was going to be played.

At this moment, Tim Collins found Zhong Cheng. Zhong Cheng was a little puzzled about Tim Collins’ arrival. What was going on?

Zhong Cheng looked up at Tim Collins and said, “What’s wrong? Has there been a new change in the transfer?”

Tim Collins nodded excitedly and said, “As expected of the boss. I was right before I could say anything. It’s really amazing, really amazing!”

Zhong Cheng rolled his eyes at Tim Collins and said, “Alright, stop flattering me. Tell me directly, what kind of change is this fall?”

Tim Collins immediately said, “Boss, it’s still Bresciano.”

Zhong Cheng was slightly shocked. He sat up straight and said, “Could it be that Palermo are willing to let him go? How much is it? As long as it’s not too ridiculous, we will directly take down Bresciano!”

Tim Collins shook his head slightly and said: “Boss, Palermo are willing to let him go. But they still don’t want to sell Bresciano. They think Bresciano is promising.”

Zhong Cheng’s index finger knocked on the table, making a rhythmic sound. Tim Collins stood there quietly, staring at Zhong Cheng without saying a word.

It took a while for Zhong Cheng to say, “You mean Palermo are willing to loan us Bresciano?”

Tim Collins nodded and said: “Yes, boss! That’s what Palermo are proposing, and they’re proposing a nominal loan fee, mainly for Bresciano in the second half of the season!”

Zhong Cheng nodded slightly. The Palermo side was really good. Letting their Leeds United train their players for Palermo and letting Bresciano come to the Leeds United to find a form was really possible.

However, Leeds United do need Bresciano now, and Palermo must have seen through this. Zhong Cheng asked, “What is Bresciano’s salary like?”

Tim Collins said straightforwardly: “Boss, we already know that Bresciano is currently earning 1.2 million euros a year, which should not be a big problem for our club!”

Zhong Cheng frowns slightly. They have to pay 600,000 euros to Bresciano in half a year. How dare your Palermo club ask for a loan fee?

Zhong Cheng replied directly, “You can reply to Palermo. We can rent Bresciano or pay him, but there is no rent. If you agree, then sign the agreement directly. If you don’t agree, then it will be completely over!”

Tim Collins nodded to show that he knew. Then, he turned around and went to deal with this matter. Tim Collins was still very efficient. The next day, Tim Collins directly brought Bresciano to Leeds United for a medical examination.

As long as he passes the medical, Bresciano will be a member of Leeds United.

The physical examination was very quick. Bresciano’s body did not have any problems. He passed the physical examination and passed the test directly. In this way, Bresciano officially loaned Leeds United and became a member of the Leeds United team.
