Heroes of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 505

Naples "accidentally" defeated Manchester United at home, which did not allow them to be promoted to second place in the group, because Valencia also defeated Rangers 3-0 at home. There are fewer balls than Valencia, so they are ranked No.3.

Even so, it is already a very remarkable progress.The victory of this game not only allowed Naples to see the hope of qualifying for the group again, but also further disrupted the situation in Group C.

Manchester United, which lost the ball, currently has seven points and is still ranked first in the group, but Valencia and Naples, which also have five points, have caught up.

Glasgow Rangers currently only have four points, ranking last from the bottom.However, it cannot be said that there is no hope.There are two rounds left in the group stage. They will face Manchester United at home first, and they still have hope of winning, and then they will challenge Naples away in the final round.

If the Glasgow Rangers can beat Manchester United at home, this group will be completely chaotic, and even Manchester United, which was once aloof, will be dragged into this muddy water.At the same time, Valencia and Naples are inseparable at home, and the Glasgow Rangers may benefit from it.

Naples' next group match is to challenge Valencia in an away game. Since the two teams have the same points, in a sense, perhaps this game is the key battle that really affects whether Naples can qualify for the group stage. Manchester United's game was just a turning point, not decisive.

If Naples can beat Valencia in the away game, it will not be difficult for the Devils to face Rangers at home in the last round.

If they accidentally lose to Valencia, the point gap between the two teams will widen to three points, and the last round will have to depend on other people's faces.

After the game, some media commented on Naples' victory in this game, and said: "It really deserves to be the group of death."

Such a simple sentence can describe the whole situation of this group.

Chen Yingxiong was so happy that the team beat Manchester United at home, he forgot to check the news related to Liverpool's acquisition on the Internet.

But soon he didn't need to check, because it didn't take long before he received a call from Chen Xing.

"Aha! A hero!"

Chen Xing's voice on the phone was full of air, and his laughter was even more audible.

Chen Yingxiong's heart skipped a beat.

"I have to announce good news to you! After a month of wrangling between us and the United States! You and me! Finally, everything has been settled. We have just completed the signing ceremony. From today onwards, Liverpool's surname is Chen! Hahaha!"

Chen Xing smiled happily.

Chen Yingxiong was silent.

This news is good news for Chen Xingxing, but for me...it's very complicated.

This means that I really have to go to Liverpool next season.

Of course, the spectators can give Chen Yingxiong advice as much as they want, and say that it is a big deal not to go, and no one can force him.Anyway, the bet at the time was nothing more than lip service, and there was no basis for words. Whether the two sides had written it down in black and white, Chen Yingxiong should not be too easy to renege on his debt.

But Chen Yingxiong didn't think about this kind of thing.

Now that you have promised others, you must do it.Even if it is a bet made by others.

After the good news, Chen Xing didn't hear Chen Yingxiong's voice, and was a little strange: "Why, aren't you happy for me?"

"Uh, no. I'm thinking about how to leave Naples and go to Liverpool..."

Chen Xing was stunned for a moment after hearing Chen Yingxiong's answer, and then he remembered the bet he had made with Chen Yingxiong.

"No? Do you remember?"

"Don't you remember?"

"I thought you were joking, I forgot!"

Chen Yingxiong coughed.

"I said, hero. I also know that it is unrealistic for you to leave Naples at present, so this bet...don't take it to heart. You are still playing well in Naples. Brother Chen, as long as you If you want to leave Naples, you can give priority to Liverpool..." Chen Xing planned to persuade Chen Yingxiong.

He was quite concerned about this bet at first, but then he thought how could this be possible?How could the leading shooter in Naples just leave?Just treat it as a joke!

So I didn't take it seriously.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong would always remember it.

"No, Brother Chen. There is a saying in China that I can't follow my words..."

"Ahem, that sentence is called 'a gentleman's words are hard to follow'..."

"It doesn't matter whether he is a Laozi or a gentleman, that's what it means anyway. If you promise something to others, you must do it, or don't promise it in the first place. I said that I want to be the best shooter, and I want to be the best scorer, even if You can only play eleven games in a season, and I still want to win it. I said I would win this season's Champions League top scorer, and I will definitely win it. Just wait and see. Therefore, since I promised you, wait You bought Liverpool, I'm going to Liverpool, I'm going to Liverpool. It's not a joke."

Chen Yingxiong said it firmly, as if it was a matter of course like eating and breathing.

But Chen Xing didn't know what to say for a while.

"Oh, that... this..." Chen Xing stammered. "You are now...the most popular star in Naples, how could you leave the team? Even if you want to, I don't think the club and the head coach will let you go..."

Anyway, he felt that it was too difficult.To say that after two seasons, Chen Yingxiong will leave Naples, he has no doubts at all.Just for the bad and tense relationship between him and the Naples fans... But now that he is in good form, how could Naples let him go?
"I'll go and talk to that old man De Laurentiis about this." Chen Yingxiong said. "Anyway, don't worry about it, Brother Chen. You have successfully acquired Liverpool, which means you have fulfilled your part of the promise. Now it's my turn."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ang asked Chen Xing, "What's the matter?"

Chen Xing sighed: "I met him at the beginning because I wanted to save the country with curves and get close to that charming female bodyguard. Now I suddenly feel that my previous self was quite despicable..."

※ ※ ※

After finishing the phone call with Chen Xing, Chen Yingxiong seemed to have convinced himself in the process, and he made up his mind - to leave Naples and go to Liverpool.

So he started calling, first calling his father.

This matter, after all, is related to the future of his career, he wants to talk to his father.

He is developing very well in Naples now. He can score goals. He is a popular man in the eyes of the head coach and the number one star of the team. It seems that his entire career in Naples is on the rise. He will transfer and leave soon. It is equivalent to forcibly interrupting the process.

Any transfer is an adventure for the players themselves, even those world-class stars.There are many examples of people who did well in their old clubs but couldn't get along in their new clubs.

Chen Yingxiong is not a prophet, and he doesn't know whether he will be better than Naples or the same as Naples if he transfers to Liverpool.

But this step always has to be taken.What's more, he has long wanted to leave Naples, but it's just a matter of time.

"So you lost the bet?" After hearing what Chen Yingxiong told about his bet with Chen Xing, even though he hadn't said the purpose of his call, Chen Tao already guessed what his son meant.

"Well, I'm going to keep my promise."

Chen Tao doesn't know much about football, and he is even less familiar with the situation in European football.But for him, this matter has nothing to do with the situation in European football, and it doesn't matter which is better, Liverpool or Naples.

"No one is trustworthy, and I have nothing to say about your decision. Anyway, this is your way." He said simply on the phone.His son is 22 years old, he can't put pressure on him for everything, can he?
She said all day long, "Son, why don't you grow up?", but refused to really let go.Chen Tao couldn't be such a father.

Although his father didn't talk much, Chen Yingxiong could already feel his father's feelings for him.The relationship between father and son has really warmed up rapidly since that trip to Europe.

"Thank you dad."

Chen Yingxiong's words are also very simple.

After reporting the situation to his father, Chen Yingxiong called his agent Dracula.

For the planning of his own career, he still needs to listen to the opinion of this agent, not to mention that Dracula is not just an agent.

"Going to Liverpool?" Dracula frowned.

"Yes, we must go. It will be next season. Is there a problem?" Chen Yingxiong heard some hesitation from Dracula's question.

"No, I was just a little surprised," Dracula said.

Chen Yingxiong never told Dracula about his bet with Chen Xing.

"Also, I don't think Naples will let you go."

"I'm going to talk to De Laurentiis."

"Are you sure you can convince him?"

"Try it. When you asked me if I was sure of winning the top scorer in the Russian Super League after playing only eleven games, I also said try. You have to try to know if it works."

After hearing what Chen Yingxiong said, Dracula had no objection: "Well, just leave the technical aspects to me. Since you and the new Liverpool boss are brothers, I think it's easy to talk about treatment and so on. Moreover, the Premier League is currently the world's number one football league, with the highest attention and commercialization. If you go to the Premier League, it will also benefit your commercial value development. Liverpool, as a giant, is also a good choice..." Dracula analyzed .

"By the way, I suddenly thought of something. I heard that you need a labor certificate to play in the Premier League, and that thing requires playing in the national team..." Chen Yingxiong really thought of this just now, and he had been ignoring it before up.

Would it be a good thing or a bad thing for him if he couldn't go to Liverpool because of his work permit?

"Oh, that's not a problem. The Premier League has a special talent clause. And there is another rule - those players who have proven their ability in the top European leagues to join the Premier League team do not need to be restricted by the national team's game number of labor certificates .You are the top scorer in Serie A for two consecutive seasons, the top scorer in history after the Uefa Cup restructuring, and the top scorer in the Champions League...I think so many honors are enough for you to successfully apply for a labor certificate."

Dracula explained.

After hanging up Dracula's phone call, Chen Yingxiong held his phone and thought for a while before calling De Laurentiis.

The voice on the other end of the phone was very energetic, just like De Laurentiis's consistent impression from the outside world.

"Call me so late, what's the matter, hero?"

"Well, well, I'd like to treat you to a meal, a light meal, at my house. I wonder if you're free, sir?"

"Huh? Treat me to dinner? It's not common... when?"

"November [-]th, is it convenient?" Chen Yingxiong thought for a while. On November [-]th, there will be a league game. Naples will play against Parma at home. He decided to invite De Laurentiis to dinner after the league game.

"I don't know, hero. You know I'm busy... But if you ask me, I'll let the secretary see my schedule tomorrow and call you. What do you think?"

Chen Yingxiong also knew that it was a bit presumptuous for him to call so hastily to invite the boss to dinner.But apart from this trick, he really couldn't think of any other way.

"I'm OK."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yingxiong suddenly found that Cabrera was still sitting in the living room, on the sofa next to him.

If I go to England, the bodyguard business should not be needed, unless I take the initiative to provoke Liverpool fans, but I am not a fool, I always have to come to such things...

So what about Christine?
Cabrera knew about the bet she had made with Chen Xing. She was very clear about the reasons and consequences.But she never talked about it.Let Chen Yingxiong not know what Cabrera's attitude is towards his leaving Italy.

Will she be reluctant to leave by herself?
Or do you feel relieved that you are finally gone?

"You haven't gone to sleep yet?" He pretended to be surprised.

Cabrera got up: "I'll go right away."

After speaking, he turned and went upstairs.

Looking at her graceful back, Chen Yingxiong was silent.
