Chapter 43 Goodbye, Fulham
The Arsenal club reached an agreement with the Fulham club on the transfer of Victor.But with this agreement, the Fulham club's athletic department, such as the head coach, and the youth team, have no idea that Fulham club has sold Victor.

But even if he knew, he should sell Victor for 800 million pounds.Anyway, no one knows what kind of height he can reach.Except for Lao Lei, the director of youth training who has great confidence in Victor.

But for Arsenal, since the discussions with Fulham Club have been completed, the next step is to negotiate the player's contract.In this regard, Arsenal's head coach Arthur Wenger is not worried that Victor will temporarily go back on his word.

Just like what happened to Gerrard in real football, he has already negotiated all the conditions with Chelsea, and the final signing and press conference are short.As a result, some Liverpool fans ran to Gerrard, begging Gerrard not to leave Liverpool, not to leave Anfield.Finally, we all know about Gerrard.

And now for Victor, of course Victor will not choose to stay at Fulham Club and Craven Farm like Gerrard.After all, Victor's affection and loyalty to the Fulham club is not the same as Gerrard's to Liverpool.In addition, Victor himself did not deny the idea of ​​wanting to go to a bigger club.

Now, not to mention Arthur Wenger who is going to come to Fulham Club and wants to bring Victor back to the Kearney training base as soon as possible.After all, Arthur Wenger's "old rival," Manchester United coach Sir Alex Ferguson is also eyeing him.And Victor here.

Knowing the Arsenal club, to be precise, the head coach of the Arsenal club, Arthur Wenger will pay a transfer fee to buy himself.Victor returned to his own room in the player dormitory building.After closing the door of the room.He took out his mobile phone from the safe in the room.Then he sat on the chair with the back of the desk by the window.

Then he turned on the phone and dialed a number that said "Dad" in the note.

After the call was connected, the voice on the other side of the phone came over immediately:

"Victor, what's the matter?"

"Yes, Dad." Victor on the phone said immediately after hearing the voice: "That's right, I think you may have to come to London today." Afterwards, the Arsenal club wanted to buy him immediately. , and the phone call with Arsenal's head coach Arthur Wenger after training today, and everything else.Victor told his father.

"In that case, my son, congratulations." Victor's father, Li Tian, ​​immediately expressed his congratulations after hearing Victor's words.

"Thank you dad," Victor said to his dad after expressing his gratitude, "I think it would be better for you to come to London by train. It is possible that Arsenal Club will come to Fulham Club today. side, and then let me go to the Kearney base to negotiate contracts and wages."

"Okay, Victor. I'm going to the station now." Victor's father hung up the phone immediately after saying this.It is probably the same as his answer, now go to the station in the small town of Crewe.

The Arsenal Club's attitude towards Victor seems to be "thirsty for talents." Victor finished his phone call and then went to the restaurant on the first floor to finish his lunch.Going back to my room again, I picked up a book and haven't read it for a long time.Immediately there was a knock on the door of his room.

Victor walked over and opened the door.Well, stay in London, the chairman of the Fulham club who didn't go on vacation.There is also the youth training director Lao Lei with a proud face and some unpleasant feelings.Then there was Victor's "old acquaintance," Arsenal manager Arthur Wenger.

As for the head coach of the Fulham club, he did not appear at the door of the room. It is said that the chairman of the Fulham club is a little dissatisfied with the head coach of the team's first team.The excuse is that there is a lot of investment every year, but in the past few years, he has not entered the European qualification zone once.

There was another unknown man in a suit.We don't care about this guy.

Victor immediately said hello: "Mr. Chairman, Boss, Mr. Wenger..."

Before Victor could say what he was going to say, the chairman of the Fulham club seemed to be afraid that Victor would go back on his word.Immediately said:
"Ah, dear Victor." Hearing the accented English of the owner of the Fulham Club, Victor couldn't help but shudder.Then I heard the chairman of the Fulham club go on to say:

"Arsenal club asked us to buy you for £800 million, you know, we Fulham club is a small club after all, so we agreed. So, you can pack your personal luggage now. Arsene Wenger, the head coach of Arsenal Club, also specially invited you to sign with Arsenal Club in order to express their sincerity."

The words of the chairman of Fulham may not only make Victor shudder.It seems that the head coach of the Arsenal club, Arthur Wenger, can't stand this kind of tone.So, due to his height, Arthur Wenger, who looked a bit taller than everyone around him, said to Victor:

"I invite you to join the Arsenal club. I wonder if you can go to the Kearney base with me now. Let's discuss the terms of your contract, and then you can have a medical examination and sign the contract." Then another question suddenly came to mind , and then asked:

"Then Victor, where is your father or your agent? I think it would be better to discuss the terms of the contract with them. Of course, you can too."

"Yes, Mr. Wenger," Victor replied immediately, "I have already called my dad, and he should be on the train to London now. If you don't mind, I think you can talk to my dad once Where's the phone?"

After Victor finished speaking, of course he took out his mobile phone.After getting an affirmative answer from Arthur Wenger, he dialed Victor's father's phone number, and then handed the phone to Arsenal's head coach, Arthur Wenger.

It will definitely take time to talk on the phone, and during this time, it is impossible to leave the remaining few people staring.Lao Lei, the director of youth training at the Fulham club, pulled Victor aside.Then he looked at Victor, with a very reluctant expression, and said:
"Victor..." Then he sighed involuntarily, and then stared at Victor again, as if he could find something on Victor's face.Still, he continued:

"I don't know why Mr. Chairman sold you to Arsenal Club, but the price of 800 million pounds, there is really no way that Mr. Chairman will not feel his heart, especially for you, a youth team player."

"Boss, I know." Victor was about to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Lao Lei.Then with a slightly embarrassed smile, he said with a wry smile:
"Victor, this may be the last time you will call me 'Boss'." Then he waved his hand to signal Victor not to speak, and Lao Lei withdrew his smile and wry smile.Then he said with a straight face:

"Victor, it is already a fact that you went to the Arsenal club. But I hope that after you go to Arsenal, you can continue to maintain some of your daily habits, such as extra training or other things. I don't know what else I can tell Yours, after all, you should end up going to a big club like Arsenal. Not here."

"Boss..." Seeing Lao Lei speaking such heartfelt words to him from the bottom of his heart, Victor immediately didn't know how to say it even if he had a thousand words to say.At this time, the call between Arthur Wenger and Victor's father also ended.Arthur Wenger came over and said:
"Victor, your phone."

Victor took the phone from Arthur Wenger, and at the same time, Wenger then said to Victor:

"I have already told your father about the matter, Mr. Li Tian. And I have also sent Arsenal Club staff to the train station to pick up your father to Kearney base. Well, I think you can clean up your Personal luggage. Then we will wait for you in the lobby on the first floor."

"Okay, Mr. Wenger." After Victor answered Arthur Wenger's words, Wenger took the lead to walk towards the stairs, and the chairman of the Fulham club also hurriedly followed. Although Lao Lei was a little bit reluctant, but After all, he is only the coach in charge of the youth training.It is not possible to make player buying and selling decisions.

And Victor closed the door again, walked to the closet in the room, opened the closet, and took out his ordinary clothes.After changing his clothes, he neatly folded the Fulham club training clothes he had been wearing before and put them on the bed.After that, I don't have many things of my own. Except for a few clothes, books and toiletries, all other things are also equipped by Fulham Club.

After a while, after packing up, he took his suitcase and walked out of the youth team dormitory building of the Fulham club training base where he had lived for more than a year.Then, gently close the door of the room.After inserting the key into the door lock.Pull the box and walk towards the hall on the first floor.

"Victor!" Just as Victor was about to go downstairs, a voice sounded immediately, "Congratulations, a team like Arsenal!"

"Ah, Chris." Victor looked up, just in time to see Chris James, the first teammate and friend he met after coming to the Fulham youth team, with a look of envy.Then, before Victor could say anything, he heard Chris go on to say:

"Hey, Victor. You're going to be the best player in the world, trust me."

"Thank you." Victor looked at Chris James, who still had an excited expression on his face, and didn't feel a little sad because of his departure, or even thought Victor was "betrayed".I can only say thank you.Then, Victor raised his arm and waved at Chris James.Then, he picked up the box in his hand and walked down the stairs.In Victor's ear, Chris James continued to shout:

"You're going to be the best football star in the world so I can say to my friends, 'You know, Victor and I used to be teammates'."

Of course, Chris James can feel the change in Victor's heart, after all, even if he is a player who wants to develop in a wealthy club.When I really left the team, I still felt a little unclear.

And when Victor went down to the first floor and saw Arthur Wenger again.Wenger had a smile on his face, and then said to Victor:
"Let's go, go to Kearney." Then he said to the chairman of the Fulham club who is now smiling:
"Thank you very much for your hospitality and I would like to express my sincere thanks to you. I am sure that Fulham Club will become a friendly friend of our Arsenal Club."
