Two magpies hopped on the treetops.

Green moss in the cracks of the mottled red bricks was covered with dewdrops.

Paparazzi who had been painstakingly waiting for Li Kang's scandal for a season finally reaped the fruits of their labor.

"Woodward came to London in person?"

"Spread the word, Manchester United is preparing to sign Arsenal's two hundred million man!"

"Okay, Manchester United is signing Arsenal's two hundred million man, official announcement immediately!"

The Bayer Group's medical team staff poured a cup of tea for Manchester United's receding hairline CEO and several accompanying people.

Woodward sniffed, a little unaccustomed to the smell of ozone in the hospital.

Although this guy had always been slow and naggy, he didn't exchange pleasantries for too long this time.

Straight to the point.

"Manchester United has the most proud central axis in the Premier League."

"Li and Pogba will become the most terrifying midfield duo on this planet."

"The two hundred million man and the one hundred million man joining hands..."

"Hmm, is Li seriously injured? Why are there so many white coats here?"

The little assistant shook his head and then nodded.

"Bayer Group is very concerned about Li's injury..."

Bayer Group and Leverkusen could still get a 5-10% tiered fee in Li Kang's second transfer, almost moving Leverkusen's hospital over.

Hearing this.

Woodward frowned.

His transfer operations have always been known for being slow, and he hesitated and said: "I hope to follow the conventional operation, follow the normal process, after Li comes to Manchester United for a medical examination, then finalize the specific transfer details... or wait until he recovers almost completely before coming to Manchester United's Carrington base to observe."

Hesitation.

Woodward's dragging style gave Manchester United the nickname "Raise-the-Price United."

Although it has looked "swift and decisive" in the past two years, in fact, his recruitment team has observed each new player for as long as half a year.

The little assistant shook his head.

The other party's meaning... isn't it a trial?

A two hundred million man on trial.

A Treble-winning commander on trial.

Hey, understandable.

For superstars, is "raising the price" all that's left for Manchester United?

"I'm sorry."

A moment later.

The Manchester United team left the red brick villa.

The paparazzi frantically pressed the camera shutter.

"Wilde and Woodward talked very happily, such a friendly hug and handshake!"

"Look at their expressions and demeanor, this matter is 100% settled."

"Quick, tell the news to the newspaper!"

At 10:30 in the morning.

The Sun published a blockbuster news: "Agreement reached: Li Kang to transfer to Manchester United!"

When the paparazzi were preparing to change shifts and rest.

A business car drove into the yard again.

"Begiristain!"

"Manchester City's sporting director!"

"Spread the word, Manchester City is going to intercept the deal!"

Begiristain looked tired, he had just flown from Monaco to London.

That's right.

Manchester City signed two super reinforcements from the "Dark Horse Supermarket" this summer: B. Silva, Mendy!

In Guardiola's words, these two are important pieces of the puzzle.

"Dear Mr. Wilde, long time no see."

"The weather in London is really annoying."

"Monaco's tomato tuna is amazing, and so is the onion pizza."

"I almost forgot, Coach Cruyff asked me to pass on a few books to Li."

"Yes, yes, Cruyff brought me to Barca back then, your grandfather still remembers my goal in the Champions League? Is he a Bayern fan?"

"Manchester City continues part of the coach's football philosophy."

"..."

After exchanging pleasantries for a long time.

Begiristain adjusted his sitting posture and finally got to the point.

"Manchester City is willing to wait for Li to recover from his injury, we have enough patience for such a super genius."

"He will enjoy Guardiola's tactical system very much."

"He will become a quasi-ball king level superstar on the Blue Moon's defense."

"He will become the 20th person to change football history."

"Do you know Facchetti of Inter Milan? He was the pioneer of the defensive revolution in football in the last century, Li will become the one in this century..."

"But there is a very small problem we have to talk about, salary, you know, no Premier League club can give a full-back or defensive midfielder a top salary..."

"Manchester City is not short of money, but the club's salary structure is one of the important means of maintaining stability."

In the end.

Begiristain left with a regretful expression.

The little assistant sighed: Going from a Premier League top salary to the same level as Bellerin's salary, who can accept this gap?

When the paparazzi saw the Manchester City team leaving.

They couldn't wait to send the news and photos back to the newspaper.

"Able to chat for three hours? They must be finalizing the details!"

"Spread the word, Li is going to join Manchester City!"

At 1:30 in the afternoon.

The Sun published another blockbuster news: "Intervention, Manchester City strongly signs Li Kang."

Two super bombs fell into the quagmire of North London.

Islington fans were furious after seeing the news reports.

Arsenal is selling the two hundred million man?

The core of the Treble that restored glory and dreams to the Gunners... is going to be sold?

This is even more infuriating than the transfers of Van Persie and Fabregas.

No.

It's more infuriating than having one's wife stolen!

Hatred of wife-stealing!

Soon, some extreme fan organizations gathered at the Arsenal office building, clamoring frantically.

Bang bang bang!

Large and small stones smashed the glass doors and windows.

"Call the police!"

"Call the police quickly!"

Robert was panicked.

He didn't expect Islington fans to have even stronger attacking desires than Barcelona fans!

A staff member said, "Mr. Robert, the club requires you to settle this matter..."

The gust of wind drilled through the broken hole in the window, blowing up a thick stack of quotation faxes on the desk.

At dusk.

Li Kang and the little assistant boarded the super yacht "Eclipse."

The two seemed to be in a sea steel palace.

"Ms. Skaya, are you saying that Abramovich's private yacht is equipped with a laser protection system? A missile defense system?"

"Is this an aquarium?"

"Oh my God! The Royal Navy!"

"Are those helicopter pilots?"

"What? Nine decks? And a hundred guest rooms? What is that? A football field!"

"Uncle! Are you retired from the Navy SEALs?"

"A luxurious seaside manor!"

"I almost thought I was filming a movie."

The little assistant was like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, feeling novel about everything on the super yacht, secretly guessing the value of each item and the salary of each staff member.

Li Kang smiled, his material desires were not high.

Ms. Skaya patiently introduced them to the two, like a tour guide.

Her attitude proved that Abramovich was not in a hurry.

After all, he had been waiting for a season...

After a long time.

The group came to a living room.

Abramovich greeted him excitedly.

"Li, I've finally waited for you."

"You can get everything at Chelsea."

The little assistant twitched the corner of his mouth, they haven't even started talking yet!

Why does the Chelsea boss think Li will definitely join Chelsea?

Can injuries be waited for?

Can the Premier League's top salary be given... it seems it really can.

Distant Madrid.

Diego Costa stopped at the Espino training base.

He grabbed the assistant - Cardozo.

And put the phone screen in front of the other party.

"Quick, let Mendes think of a way, I don't fucking want to leave Chelsea anymore!"
