The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 892
892 He Was Fated to Be with Leeds!
To tell the truth, Switzerland still held a certain advantage in this match.
However, the Swiss team still lost this match!
The Swiss team was eliminated by the Czech team, the host country Switzerland’s luck is not very good!
The best performer of the Swiss national team this game was 24-year-old Inler, who also became the captain of the Swiss national team and the former Swiss captain left the field injured.
Right-back Lichtsteiner, whom Zhong Cheng valued, also performed well, but did not attract much attention. However, Zhong Cheng believed that after this European Cup, Lichtsteiner would definitely enter a lot of attention!
After the match, Zhong Cheng brought Julia Oliveira and the others back to the hotel.
Zhong Cheng did not watch the next Portuguese game against Turkey, nor did they have time to watch. The Portuguese national team defeated their opponent Turkey 2-0.
Real Madrid centre-back Pepe scored a goal in the game.
Pepe’s impressive performance since joining Real Madrid last season was worth 30 million euros. Back then, Zhong Cheng had also taken a fancy to Pepe. Unfortunately, because of the labour permit, he was unable to introduce Pepe in the end.
Pepe later acquired Portuguese citizenship and chose to play for the Portuguese national team.
This undying match shows that Real Madrid’s vision is not a problem at all. Pepe’s performance is really too good, too good.
The next day, the second host Austria premiere, Zhong Cheng did not go to watch, he accompanied Isabella George and the others to travel to Switzerland.
Austria face Croatia, with Leeds United’s central midfielder Luka Modric leading the way. Luka Modric’s performance was impressive, unparalleled, and was dubbed the “new Cruyff” by the fans.
In this long-term love, Luka Modric first scored the first record for the team, then assisted the team’s striker Oli ć, a goal and an assist performance is very good, only direct control of the game.
Naturally, Zhong Cheng did not watch the match between Germany and Poland.
Germany did not pay much attention to this match, because it was time for the German team to be renewed. However, the German team was still relatively old in this tournament. From the next tournament onwards, Germany’s youth storm was about to start.
Of course, Zhong Cheng was also waiting for this storm of youth, causing the Leeds United team to be slightly shocked.
On the Polish side, the Polish striker Levandovski, who played for Leeds United, was not selected for the Polish national team. He watched the match from the stands.
In this match, Germany won easily, and both goals came from Polish descendant Podolski. Podolski scored twice over Poland, and after scoring, he did not celebrate.
Polish fans applauded Podolski.
At this time, many people were thinking that if Podolski chose the Polish national team, then the game would be interesting. Polish football would be much more powerful, right?
The second day of the competition ended. Zhong Cheng followed Julia Oliveira and the others on a tour of Switzerland. He had a good day and was very tired.
On the third day of the competition, Zhong Cheng and his party went to the scene!
Zhong Cheng chose to watch the match between Romania and France because there were several Leeds United players in the formation, such as Bacari Sagna, Franck Ribery, Joan Gourcuff and Samir Nasri.
Many people had previously mocked the fact that there was a French gang in the Leeds United Formation.
Previously, Leeds United had left-back Chimbonda and centre-back Jean-Alain Boumsong among them. This was a huge French gang. However, Zhong Cheng had a conflict with the duo and their agent, Willie Makai, so both of them left Leeds United.
However, there are still quite a few French players in the Leeds United squad.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng chose this match to watch!
When he arrived at the scene, Zhong Cheng still chose the VIP box, mainly for the consideration of the ladies beside him. If it was only him, he would go to the ordinary stands.
In this match, only Franck Ribery started for Leeds United. The rest were substitutes and sat on the bench.
Even Joan Gourcuff, who did well at Leeds United, was on the bench. Nasri, who had just recovered from his injury, was also on the bench. This could be said to be the confidence of the French national team’s head coach Domenech.
Of course, in this match, the French team still had some problems because their striker Thierry Henry was injured and was unable to appear in the starting lineup. This had a great impact on the French national team.
Not long after sitting down, Julia Oliveira immediately asked, “Boss, who are you looking forward to this match? The French team should be able to win easily from time to time, right?”
Zhong Cheng smiled faintly and said, “If the French team had another head coach, they might have won!”
Julia Oliveira and the others widened their eyes. Zhong Cheng actually didn’t like the French team?
Although there are some problems with the French team, the French team should be much stronger than Romania.
Zhong Cheng did not continue, “Let’s watch the match!”
At the beginning of this match, everyone understood the result of this match. The game was similar to the one between Switzerland and the Czech Republic. It was very stalemate, and most of the time, it was focused on the midfield, where the two teams had a fierce fight.
The Frenchman had a tough game and the only thing he could do was Franck Ribery. This guy broke through on the side, but there wasn’t a single person in the middle, so it was very awkward for him to kick.
Franck Ribery worked very hard in this match, but he did not lead France to a victory. In this match, France and Romania were tied 0-0!
Yes, France didn’t score and couldn’t beat Romania.
After the match, Zhong Cheng had nothing to say. This match, Franck Ribery had stood out for his strength and status. If there was no Franck Ribery in this match, the French team might have already lost.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng still believes that he is right. If he wants to talk about Franck Ribery’s transfer, he will wait for the end of the European Cup.
At the same time, this was how he replied to Barcelona!
Barcelona sent an early message to Leeds United claiming they wanted to buy back Steven Gerrard Pique and Leeds United staff received the message early on. However, they were instructed by Zhong Cheng not to put the documents in front of him until the end of the European Cup.
Barcelona is very anxious right now. They really want to bring Gerald Peeker back to Barcelona immediately. Coase Zhongcheng has never talked to them, which makes them very happy.
A few days ago, the Barcelona executives called Zhong Cheng. Zhong Cheng told the Barcelona Club what he was thinking. The Barcelona man was naturally very unhappy, but he had no choice but to accept it. He waited for the European Cup to end before discussing the transfer.
At this time, the Barcelona people were ready to bleed.
Zhong Cheng’s goal was to earn more money, so they could only prepare to bleed.
To tell the truth, Zhong Cheng really didn’t want to sell Gerald Peeker.
Gerrard Pique is a central defender at Leeds United and a central defender. Zhong Cheng was naturally very unhappy that he was allowed to leave just like that.
However, there was no way Gerard Peeker could refuse Barcelona.
Now there is another situation in Franck Ribery, and that is the system’s reason. The system had already punished Franck Ribery for his transfer, and Zhong Cheng couldn’t even stay with Xiang Liu. Zhong Cheng knew that the system would definitely arrange a suitable reason for Franck Ribery to leave. He said that Franck Ribery would let him show his cards in a few days.
Of course, Zhong Cheng also hoped to talk about this after the European Cup.
Zhong Cheng is very confident in Franck Ribery, he firmly believes that after the European Cup, Franck Ribery will soar in value.
Of course, at this time, Zhong Cheng was also waiting for Alex Ferguson’s reply. If we can take down Cristiano Ronaldo, that would be awesome.
However, Zhong Cheng did not wait for Alex Ferguson’s reply. Instead, he waited for bad news.
Tolliver Burch called Zhong Cheng and said, “Boss, I have some very bad news for you!”
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned. He seemed to have some thoughts in his heart.
The bad news is that someone at the club wants to leave Leeds United. After being eliminated from the Champions League for two consecutive seasons, some of Leeds United’s players are unavoidably shaken. There were also many clubs or upstarts who were waving huge sums of money to seduce Leeds United players. Someone should have been recruited.
Zhong Cheng immediately said, “Tell me, what is the bad news?”
Tolliver Burch did not beat around the bush and said: ‘Bakari’s agent Christopher has just sent word that Bakari wants to leave Leeds United.
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned, as if he hadn’t heard it clearly. He asked in surprise, “Who is it?”
Tolliver Burch sighed and said, “Who else is there, Bacari!”
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned, and then said, “Sagna? Bakari Sagna?”
“Yes,” said Tolliver Burley immediately. “Who else can there be besides him?”
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned when he heard this. He did not expect that the one who wanted to leave was actually Bacari Sagna. This was beyond his expectations.
I have never heard of Bacari Sagna’s move before. When did this news come out? Who actually succeeded in seducing Sagna?
Sagna is still Leeds United’s main right-back. Zhong Cheng has always attached great importance to him, but he never expected him to choose to leave at this time!
Originally, Zhong Cheng did not intend to bring in a full-back, but now that Sagna is leaving, it seems that Zhong Cheng has to make up for the right-back.
Immediately, there was a candidate for Zhong Chengcheng, and the replacement was naturally Swiss international Lichtsteiner, whom Zhong Chengcheng was optimistic about! Of course, Zhong Cheng would not let Sagna go so easily. He still needed to have a good talk with Sagna, and then he would make a decision on whether to introduce Sagna and allow him to leave. Then I can decide whether to introduce Lichtsteiner or not!
If Sagna really left, then Lichtsteiner and Leeds United would be too lucky!
