Chapter 718

Manchester United's second offer of 79.99 million euro for Gao Xiaodong was once again rejected by Inter Milan. General manager Branca said that no matter how much he offered, inter would never sell his core. In Inter, Gao Xiaodong is not for sale.

Many fans of other teams on the Internet have begun to ridicule and satirize Manchester United. Since they have already offered such a price, why not add one euro to activate the penalty? Last season, Manchester United and Inter Milan competed for a better winter, but they lost on one euro. Do they have to lose on one euro this time?

Even Manchester United fans are puzzled and annoyed. They think that it's not enough to be humiliated by one euro last season by Mourinho to either directly activate the liquidated damages, leave aside Inter Milan and talk with Gao Xiaodong, or simply stop chasing Gao Xiaodong and spend a lot of money on Rooney? There's another season of humiliation for Benitez.

Of course, many smart fans smell a hint of conspiracy, because there is no difference between 79.99 million euro and 80 million euro for Manchester United. Manchester United will never fail to win more. Since Manchester United make such a bid without activating the penalty, who will benefit? Obviously, it's good for Gao Xiaodong. If the penalty is activated, only Gao Xiaodong is willing to transfer to Manchester United without activating the penalty. Then either Inter are willing to sell Gao Xiaodong or Gao Xiaodong is going to leave.

If so, then it is obvious that Manchester United have reached an agreement with Gao Xiaodong. In order to protect Gao Xiaodong and prevent him from being attacked by Inter fans, Manchester United have made such an offer.

After rejecting Manchester United's offer, Blanca immediately called Mendes to ask if Gao Xiaodong was planning to move.

At this time, Gao Xiaodong has not left Milan, Mendes denied, saying that Gao Xiaodong has not yet decided, is under consideration, but they will soon give inter an accurate answer.

Inter are just suspicious, there is no evidence, but Mendes said very firmly, they have no way, can only wait for Gao Xiaodong to make the final decision.

On July 26, inter left Milan for training in Pennsylvania. On the second day of Inter's arrival in Philadelphia, Mendes personally went to Milan and submitted Gao Xiaodong's transfer application to Moratti at 26 Durini street.

Moratti was very angry. Such a good man patted the table and yelled at Mendes: "Mr. Mendes! What do you mean? Are you going to destroy inter

Mendes smiles. "Massimo, calm down. Please listen to me."

"Explain? What else can be explained? " Moratti's anger continued, "Jose left, although he went very bad, but Gao Xiaodong just joined inter for a year, if you are not egging on him, why would he leave, do I treat him badly? If you want status, if you want salary, whatever he wants. "

Mendes smile, said: "Massimo, don't get excited, this is really not my idea, it is really Xiaodong want to leave."

Moratti sneered and said, "well, why did Gao Xiaodong leave inter?"

Mendes said with a smile: "don't leave inter because it's bad. Massimo, to be exact, it's because Inter are so good."

Moratti sneered, but he wanted to hear what Mendes could say.

Mendes continued: "Inter have won the treble and are the best team in Europe. Dong feels that there is no further possibility for him in Inter, so he plans to go to other teams to try."

Moratti said angrily: "nonsense, I don't believe there are people who don't want to stay in the champion team to win more titles, but want to go to other teams to make it more difficult for themselves."

Mendes said with a smile: "isn't Jose an example? Dong is the same person as Jose

"Sophistry." Moratti said: "how old is Jose, how old is Gao Xiaodong, can Gao Xiaodong think the same as Jose?"

Mendes grinned bitterly and said, "I can't understand it, but it's really Gao Xiaodong's idea. It's also a difficult decision for him. Chairman, you know Gao Xiaodong. He has a lot of personality and opinions. He doesn't listen to what I say."

Moratti is dubious. According to Moratti's understanding of Gao Xiaodong, he is not a man to be manipulated, but he can't trust Mendes. He believes that this is the result of Gao Xiaodong's willingness and Mendes' encouragement. After all, Gao Xiaodong almost went to Manchester United last season.

Slowly sit down, Moratti silent for a long time, said: "Mr. Mendes, there is no room for recovery?"

Mendes said: "Xiaodong is very determined in front of us, it is estimated that it is difficult to recover, in fact, Sneijder is very good, is the perfect substitute for Xiaodong, last season he was suppressed by Xiaodong, if you want to discuss the potential, cutinho is a very talented child, Inter Milan let Xiaodong is not without future."

The future? Moratti thought of Ronaldo, Vieri and Adelaide. They sighed as if they were ten years old in a moment and said: "I didn't expect that Xiao Dong would leave. Why can't inter keep the talent?"Mendes comforted: "Massimo, the fifth consecutive inter League title, won Italy's first treble. This is a great achievement to catch up with Inter and the Milan Dynasty. You can't be too greedy. Now is the era of all the heroes, and Serie A is not the small world cup of that year."

Moratti sighed: "yes, times are different. Big international may never come again."

See Moratti's appearance, Mendes also some dejected, said: "in fact, Xiaodong also very reluctant to leave Inter, otherwise he personally came to say goodbye to you. But I'm afraid he won't continue to play for Inter

Moratti's face suddenly changed, stood up and said firmly: "Mr. Mendes, no matter what you say is true or false, I will ask Gao Xiaodong personally, why does he want to leave inter?"

……

When Mendes sent Moratti Gao Xiaodong's transfer application, Manchester United manager Ferguson, who was training in Philadelphia, called Rooney to his room.

"Wayne, we will bring in a world-class star." Ferguson chews gum and stares at Rooney to see his face change.

"Who is it?" Rooney is surprised because he knows United are short of money and heavily in debt, otherwise he would not consider leaving.

Ferguson smile, said: "little Donggao, how about it? His strength is worthy of your ambition

"Is it really Xiao Donggao? His transfer fee is 80 million? " Rooney was even more surprised. He heard about the team's offer for Gao Xiaodong, but he didn't believe that Manchester United really had the money to buy him. His agent always thought that it was Manchester United's intention to use Gao Xiaodong as a cover to keep Rooney or suppress Rooney's salary increase.

"Money is not a problem," Ferguson said. "As long as it's worth the money, Wayne, I've got Dong Gao. Are you going to leave?"

Rooney scratched his head, thought for a long time and said, "I'll think about it again."

Ferguson laughed and said, "you can go back and discuss it with Stratford."

"OK, boss."

Rooney left Ferguson's room and immediately called his agent, Stratford, to tell him what Ferguson had said.

"It must be fake. I don't believe Manchester United have the money to buy Gao Xiaodong. Wayne, don't worry about it. I'll call Sir Alex Ferguson," he said

Stratford immediately called Ferguson and said, "Sir, Wayne said Manchester United have done Dongo?"

Ferguson leisurely way: "why, can't it? Manchester United is the best club in the world. Why don't you come? I can also tell you that xiaodonggao's annual salary is no higher than that given by Inter Milan

Stratford was surprised, but still said: "even if Manchester United can buy Xiao Donggao, Rooney will still leave. The strength of Xiao Donggao threatens Rooney's position."

Ferguson was furious and said: "Stretford, you are too shameless. When Manchester United didn't buy people, you said that Manchester United didn't have ambition and didn't buy world-class stars. Now I've finished xiaodonggao, but you said that xiaodonggao's strength is too strong, which will affect Rooney's status. If you don't buy it, you can't buy it. Don't you want Manchester City's salary of 12 million a year I'll tell you, young Donggao gave up Manchester City's 17 million euro offer to Manchester United, which is much higher than Manchester City's offer to Rooney. Let me tell you, young Donggao will come. Rooney will stay if he wants. His annual salary is 10 million euro. If he doesn't want to stay, let's go. "

With that, Ferguson hung up.
