The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 890

890 Don’t Beat Around the Bush
Alex Ferguson couldn’t bear to fight with Zhong Cheng for a while.

Alex Ferguson knew very well that if he didn’t tell him the purpose of his actions, Zhong Cheng would continue to play tai chi with him until the end of the call and wouldn’t be able to get to the point.

Indeed, this fellow Madman Loria had guessed his intention to make the call.

To tell you the truth, he, Alex Ferguson, could not have called Zhong Cheng for anything but reinforcements!

‘”Alright, Alex Ferguson! You don’t have to go in circles with me, do you?” Said Loria immediately. “I just want to ask how much it costs to take Franck Ribery away!”

Straightforward, Sword Finger Zhongjun!

Zhong Cheng smiled faintly. This old brat finally couldn’t hold on any longer, so he asked in advance. However, Zhong Cheng’s mood was still very bad!

Alex Ferguson is going to dig his corner again.

“Sir Alex Ferguson, didn’t I tell you that Frank is not for sale at our club?” Zhong Cheng said immediately.

Alex Ferguson chuckled and said, “Mr. Loria, there’s no point in that! Let’s get straight to the point. Your Leeds United really can’t keep Franck Ribery anymore. The players themselves want to leave!”

The corner of Zhong Cheng’s mouth curled up slightly. “So you guys have already contacted my team in advance? This seems to be against the rules of UEFA. Do you think I should sue you guys?”

Alex Ferguson was slightly stunned. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly and his flesh ached.

Alex Ferguson couldn’t help but laugh bitterly as he fell into Zhong Cheng’s trap. This fellow was really hard to deal with.

Alex Ferguson chuckled and said, “Mr. Loria, even if we didn’t contact Frank, he still wanted to leave Leeds United. I think you should know that!”

Of course, Zhong Cheng knew very well that this was all created by that damn system.

To tell the truth, Zhong Cheng really didn’t want to send Franck Ribery away, but there was nothing he could do now.

Zhong Cheng said directly, “Alright, if you want to take Franck Ribery away, you can either prepare a penalty of £ 75 million or exchange it for Cristiano Ronaldo.”

On the phone, Alex Ferguson was slightly stunned!

Alex Ferguson was dumbfounded when he heard the news. Zhong Cheng’s offer was too fantastic!

75 million pounds?

My God, do you really think Franck Ribery is a star in the sky, so expensive?

Also, Cristiano Ronaldo is the ace of our Manchester United team, who scored nearly 50 goals in all competitions last season? Are you mistaken?

At the same time, Alex Ferguson also suspected that the penalty for breach of contract in Franck Ribery was really 75 million pounds? This wasn’t something that Madman Loria purposely took out to refuse him, was it?

Alex Ferguson immediately said: “No, 75 million pounds is too expensive. No one on this planet is worth 75 million pounds. No, absolutely not!”

Zhong Cheng sneered and said, “Then trade for Cristiano Ronaldo!”

Alex Ferguson immediately replied: “That’s impossible. Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale for Manchester United!”

Zhong Cheng chuckled and said, “Franck Ribery is still not for sale for our Leeds United team!”

The corner of Alex Ferguson’s mouth twitched and he immediately said, “This is different. Franck Ribery wanted to leave, but Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t!”

Loyalty chuckled and said, “Alex Ferguson, there’s no point in doing this!” “Everyone knows how the feud between Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney came about. Everyone knows when Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to leave Manchester United. I think you should be more sincere.”

When Alex Ferguson heard this, he was so angry that he glared at him!

Alex Ferguson shouted, “He can’t go anywhere without my permission. He can only stay at Manchester United!”

Zhong Cheng sneered and said, “So is Franck Ribery. Without my consent, he can’t go anywhere unless you, Manchester United, pay a penalty of £ 75 million!”

On the phone, Alex Ferguson’s eyes narrowed as he shot out a very sharp gaze. Unfortunately, Zhong Cheng couldn’t see it now.

Alex Ferguson immediately said, “Mr. Roja, can we really not talk about this anymore?”

After pondering for a while, Zhong Cheng said, “I have something to talk about here. It’s mainly up to you now. To tell you the truth, there are many clubs that value Frank, and there are also people who don’t lack money, so you have to hurry up. I don’t know if you can figure it out. When you want to trade, Frank is already a member of another club!”

Alex Ferguson was shocked and said, “Do you really want to send Franck Ribery away?”

Zhong Cheng did not conceal anything and said, “Frank indeed has the intention to leave, and we do not want to force him to stay.” Also, I have to remind you that twisted melons are not sweet. And can you really keep Cristiano Ronaldo? At that time, Cristiano Ronaldo did not stay, nor did Franck Ribery get it. A basket of bamboo came to empty space! “Alright, let’s call it a day. Think about it!”

There was nothing wrong with Zhong Cheng’s words, and Alex Ferguson fell into deep thought.

The feud between Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney is no secret and would have erupted had it not been for his constant pressure from Alex Ferguson. And Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been linked with a move away from Manchester United for almost every transfer window, has long wanted to do so.

Can he really suppress Cristiano Ronaldo? What if this guy doesn’t renew his contract? Do you really want to sell it at a low price or wait for the contract to expire before letting him leave freely?

To be honest, Alex Ferguson has little confidence in keeping Cristiano Ronaldo.

Now that Zhong Cheng had said this, he had no choice but to make Alex Ferguson think deeply!

Yeah, don’t let Cristiano Ronaldo stay until the end. Franck Ribery missed it too. He didn’t wait!

Alex Ferguson pondered for a moment and then said to Zhong Cheng, “I need to think about it!”

Zhong Cheng was delighted. It seemed that Alex Ferguson was really moved. Perhaps next season, Leeds United could really bring in Cristiano Ronaldo.

Zhong Cheng immediately said, “Alright, but you have to do it as soon as possible. Because a lot of people are after Frank, and a lot of people are rich. If they don’t say so, they will directly pay a penalty.”

Alex Ferguson nodded slightly and said, “I see!”

Zhong Cheng said: “I will go to Austria recently to see the European Cup, I think you should be able to contact me!”

Alex Ferguson nodded slightly and said, “Yes, I know!”

Then Zhong Cheng and Alex Ferguson hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Cheng couldn’t sleep!

To tell the truth, this really surprised Zhong Cheng. If Cristiano Ronaldo really came to Leeds United, then Leeds United would take off!

Of course, even if they wanted to trade, Leeds United would not be able to trade for Franck Ribery with Cristiano Ronaldo alone. At that time, Zhong Cheng would probably need to add some money.

However, if Cristiano Ronaldo can really join Leeds United, then Leeds United will be a blockhouse for the new season.

Of course, even if Manchester United were willing to trade Cristiano Ronaldo for Franck Ribery, Zhong Cheng would still have to face another obstacle: Cristiano Ronaldo himself.

Would Cristiano Ronaldo have fallen to the ground to join Leeds United?

Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked with the world’s top clubs Real Madrid over the past few seasons and has been linked with a scandal. Compared to Real Madrid, Leeds United do not have any comparability.

So even if Manchester United agree, Cristiano Ronaldo may not.

Zhong Cheng knew that Leeds United would have a lot of difficulties in bringing in Cristiano Ronaldo.

Of course, Zhong Cheng didn’t want to ask any more questions now. It was because Manchester United did not have the same side at the moment. Perhaps Alex Ferguson would reject it later and would not trade Cristiano Ronaldo for Franck Ribery.

Of course, Zhong Cheng felt that the possibility was still relatively high.

Because Alex Ferguson knows they can’t keep Cristiano Ronaldo, they must be determined to leave. After Cristiano Ronaldo left, it was very, very difficult for Manchester United to find a qualified replacement.

Right now, a very good replacement had appeared in front of him, and that was Franck Ribery. Therefore, Alex Ferguson would definitely seriously consider Zhong Cheng’s proposal, and even hold a high-level meeting.

Of course, this was not something Zhong Cheng should care about.

What Zhong Cheng wanted to think about now was who Leeds United would find to replace Franck Ribery after he left. Cristiano Ronaldo is one, but the success rate is not too high. And the rest?

Zhong Cheng had to think about it again.

Now, Leeds United have not only received offers from Manchester United, but also from Chelsea, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Liverpool, as well as Real Madrid!

Yes, Franck Ribery has done very well in recent years. Although last season was affected by injuries and “child prostitution” incident, but people still believe in Franck Ribery’s strength. However, they had an excuse to lower the price.

However, it was clear that Zhong Cheng had been dragging his feet. He wanted to wait until after the European Cup. Because Zhong Cheng believes that Franck Ribery will have a shocking performance in the European Cup, then Franck Ribery will naturally rise.

Other clubs certainly want to win Franck Ribery before the European Championship, but obviously not. Zhong Cheng is not an idiot, so they are praying for Franck Ribery not to play too well in the European Championship.

Moreover, it seemed that their luck was not bad.

There seemed to be a lot of problems with the French national team this year. There were a lot of problems between the generals, between the players and the players. Many European bookmakers are not optimistic about France and believe that France is likely to be eliminated in the group.

This was what those wealthy clubs wanted to see!
