At this point, Mourinho paused, and then continued: "Finally, let's take a look at the forward line. Edinson Cavani, he is experienced and has outstanding shooting ability. He can always score key goals in some key games. Erling Haaland, this is a goal-scoring machine. His goal efficiency is amazing. As long as he is given a chance, he can score the ball into the opponent's goal. Cody Gakpo, he is a potential striker with a good sense in front of the goal and can cooperate with his teammates. Marcus Rashford, his speed and explosiveness are his weapons, and he can bring great impact to the opponent's defense in offense. Jamal Musiala, young and talented, also has his own shining points in offense. Romelu Lukaku, his physique is strong. Strong, with strong impact in the penalty area. Mason Greenwood, he has good shooting skills and a certain ability to score goals. The coaching staff is relatively satisfied with the personnel configuration of the team's forward line, just like the back line. If there is no major injury wave and transfer, there is no need to make major adjustments. "

After Mourinho finished speaking, Rowley winked at Jason Wilcox, the head of Manchester United's transfer negotiation department, and said, "Jason, let's talk about the purchase requests received by the transfer department first. It is said that my players have become popular. "

Although Rowley's tone was teasing, it was a serious fact. With the brilliant performance of Manchester United this season, the first thing Manchester United has to deal with is poaching from other clubs. Edinson Cavani, Marco Verratti, Theo Fernandez, Ashraf Hakimi and other main players, as well as Romelu Lukaku, Cody Gakpo, Nico Williams, Dani Olmo and other substitutes who have little playing time but perform well, have received the favor of many teams; the season has just ended, and transfer applications are flying in like snowflakes, in addition to other strong teams in the Premier League, there are even giant clubs in other European leagues.

Jason Wilcox cleared his throat and opened the folder in front of him, which recorded in detail the various plans and analyses of this transfer season.

"Chairman, colleagues, as of last night, we have received a total of 46 player offers, involving 17 players of the team. The transfer department has rejected all the offers this round, but we have determined that there are several offers that are worthy of the club's attention." Jason Wilcox continued with a hint of excitement in his eyes,

"The first one is about Marco Verratti. Currently, Inter Milan in Italy, Bayern Munich in Germany, and Barcelona in Spain have all made offers.

The second one is about Romelu Lukaku. Currently, Inter Milan in Italy is the most popular In order to be positive, two offers have been made, and the offer amount has also been mentioned as 75 million pounds.

The third one is about Edinson Cavani. At present, Bayern Munich Club in Germany and Real Madrid Club in Spain have made offers.

The last one is about Raphael Varane. Paris Saint-Germain Club in France made the first offer, and the offer amount has reached 100 million pounds. "

Jason Wilcox's voice fell, and Rory signaled Mourinho to stay calm and said, "Is there any relevant action from the player himself or the player's team?"

Sports Director Solskjaer sent Yan Dao said: "Raphael Varane and Marco Verratti both transferred in this season and have a lot of remaining contract time; the contract renewal with Edinson Cavani is also progressing actively; the current problem is Romelu Lukaku. His team has communicated with me and has high requirements for the starting position and weekly salary increase."

After Solskjaer finished speaking, Vice Chairman Nicky Butt continued to speak: "It is indeed as Solskjaer said. I feel that Romelu Lukaku's team should have had a deeper contact with Inter Milan."

The words of Solskjaer and Nicky Butt made the atmosphere in the meeting room Luo Lie frowned slightly, and tried to recall the memories of his previous life. In his previous life, Romelu Lukaku did transfer to Inter Milan in this summer window. It seems that the transfer fee was 80 million euros, and he was the most expensive player in Inter Milan's 111 years. But in Luo Lie's opinion, it was the brain disease of the Manchester United management at that time. The player bought for "75 million pounds, plus a floating clause of 15 million pounds" was sold at a low price in his prime. Romelu Lukaku in this life performed much better than in the previous life. He must not let the low-price sale happen again. If it doesn't work, he will use the sucker card.

After making up his mind, Luo Lie said to Jason Wilcox"Jason, as for Romelu Lukaku, tell Inter Milan directly that less than 120 million pounds is off the table!" After saying that, he turned to the somewhat anxious head coach Mourinho and said, "José, don't worry. The club will do its best to bring in Cristiano Ronaldo."

As soon as the words fell, the conference room suddenly became like a calm lake with a boulder thrown into it, and everyone's reactions were different. Jason Wilcox, the head of the transfer negotiation department who was the main person in charge, just smiled, and that smile revealed a calmness of confidence. At this moment, he nodded slightly, crossed his hands on his chest, as if he had already outlined a blueprint for the negotiations in his mind, and was just waiting for the right time to put it into practice and bring the football superstar back to Manchester United.

Sports director Solskjaer, who had heard it before but had never taken it seriously, now widened his eyes, and his face of astonishment instantly turned into uncontrollable excitement. He stood up from his seat suddenly, waved his hands in the air unconsciously, and his voice trembled slightly because of excitement: "Really? Are we really going to bring in Cristiano Ronaldo? This is great!" He knew Cristiano Ronaldo's strength very well, and that he could change the situation on the court.

He had only heard it as a distant rumor before, but he didn't expect that it would become a real possibility now. He seemed to have seen Cristiano Ronaldo galloping on the Manchester United court, leading the team to capture the city again and again, and he couldn't help but be full of eager expectations for the team's future performance.

John Annabell, the partner sales director, who heard the news for the first time, was even more surprised. Her bright eyes sparkled even more at this moment. She covered her mouth with her hands tightly for a long time before letting them go. Her voice was full of excitement: "Oh my God, this is great news! Cristiano Ronaldo's fans are all over the world. If he joins Manchester United, our partners will definitely flock to him, and all sales channels will usher in explosive growth." Countless marketing plans have quickly flashed through her mind, from launching Cristiano Ronaldo's autographed peripheral products to co-hosting Cristiano Ronaldo-themed promotional activities with major brands. It seems that she has seen countless business opportunities shining in front of her. This is undoubtedly a huge gold mine that needs to be dug for the sales field she is responsible for.

Business Director George Adrian also couldn't hide his surprise. He was stunned for a moment, then a bright smile appeared on his face. He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "This is incredible! Cristiano Ronaldo's commercial value is immeasurable. His joining will raise Manchester United's brand influence to a new level. We can take this opportunity to reach cooperation with more international first-line brands and expand our business territory." He knew that this not only meant more sponsorship contracts and higher advertising revenue, but also further enhanced Manchester United's voice in the global business field, which was of vital importance to the long-term development of the club.

Luo Lie signaled everyone to be patient, and then said, "Jason, the communication with Juventus should be accelerated. Aren't they worried about the loss at the competitive level? We can offer them a Romelu Lukaku + cash offer and tell them that this is the player Inter Milan has always wanted. Cristiano Ronaldo, I hope to get it done before the trip to the Eastern country. It can be regarded as a gift from me, a Chinese, to the fans in my hometown." After speaking, Luo Lie smiled slyly.

"Understood, Chairman." Jason Wilcox responded, and then turned another page of the folder. "Next is to strengthen the strength of the players. Coach Mourinho has just said that there are some problems in our midfield, lacking control and creativity.

So, we set our sights on Joshua Kimmich, the midfielder of the German giant Bayern Munich. This German player, born in 1995, can play multiple positions such as defensive midfielder and right back. In the past season, he played 34 games. , all played, averaging 98 touches per game, 12km running distance, 90.5% pass success rate, 2.4 key passes; contributed 6 goals and 17 assists throughout the season, including 12 assists in the Bundesliga, 4 goals and 3 assists in the Champions League. These data show Joshua Kimmich's comprehensive performance on both offense and defense. His versatile role on the field enables him to play an important role in the game. The player's current transfer value is between 60-75 million euros.

In additionIn addition, there is a young player born in 2000, Sandro Tonali of Brescia Football Club in Italy. This Italian native player is a tough and technically comprehensive player with both offensive and defensive capabilities. He can press opponents with high quality on the defensive end, and can also dribble and create opportunities on the offensive end; this player's athletic ability is also very good, which can bring energy and vitality to the team; and he is also a skilled passer and a ball controller, who can create a lot of offensive opportunities. This season, he played 34 times in Serie B for Brescia, scored 3 goals, and had 7 assists, winning the Serie B championship with the team. We judge that it will cost about 10-12 million euros to introduce this player. Director Solskjaer's suggestion is to buy him in first, make him a substitute in the first team, or rent him out for training. "

Rolie nodded and said, "Joshua Kimmich is indeed a good candidate for reinforcement. As for the main position, we can decide based on his performance and the team's tactical arrangements, and we can't make an absolute promise at the beginning. As for salary, it can be increased within a reasonable range, but the balance of the team's salary structure must also be taken into account. The overall harmony cannot be broken because of the introduction of one player. Jason, you continue to follow up on this matter and try to get him as soon as possible. As for Sandro Tonali, follow the advice of Director Solskjaer. "

"Yes, Chairman." Jason Wilcox continued to report, "We should not take it lightly in dealing with other clubs' digging for our players. Recently, there are reports that Liverpool and Manchester City are paying attention to our young striker Jamal Musiala. Everyone knows that Musiala is a young boy. Although he is young, he is gifted and fast. He can always create some opportunities on the court. He has great potential. If he is poached by other clubs, it will be a big loss for us. "

"Director Solskjaer and Coach Van Nistelrooy have communicated with Musiala and his agent, expressing the club's attention to him and the determination to cultivate him to become the core of the team in the future. At the same time, we are also considering whether to renew his contract in advance and give him a more generous contract to stabilize his heart. However, there are certain risks. After all, he is still young. Giving him a big contract too early may make him slack. So, we are still weighing the pros and cons. "

After thinking for a moment, Luo Lie said: "Musiala is our key training target, and we can't let him be easily poached by others. Regarding the renewal, you can first draw up a preliminary contract plan with his agent. The salary can be appropriately increased, but some incentive clauses should be set, such as additional bonuses after the number of goals and assists reaches a certain standard. This will not only make him feel our sincerity, but also motivate him to work harder on the court.

Erling Haaland, Dani Olmo, Cody Gakpo, Joshko Gwadiol, Theo Fernandez, Nico Williams, these people can also follow the method. "

"Okay, Chairman." Jason Wilcox wrote down the key points.‌‌
