Chapter 332 Is the club an important asset or a direct force?
As the first player of the new generation in football, Ling Feng can be said to have mastered both competitiveness and business!
This season, in order to ensure his physical and competitive condition, Ling Feng continues to expand his private team.
In addition to a personal chef who doubles as a nutritionist, he also hired a professional sports medicine rehabilitation therapist.
For physical training, he can conduct it under the guidance of the club's physical coach.
But muscle relaxation and stretching after the game is very important.
He can't stay in the club and let the club's masseur work overtime to massage him.
Therefore, the emergence of a private rehabilitation therapist allows him to relax his muscles immediately after the game, and can also monitor and analyze his body data at all times, thereby minimizing the effects of exercise. of injuries and illnesses.
The concept of private sports teams was first proposed by boxing champion Tyson.
It was later carried forward by great professional athletes such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Kobe Bryant, and James.
Today, most famous professional athletes have their own private teams.
For Ling Feng, who has ambitious goals, a private team is a must.
If he wants to become the best in the world and compete for the Golden Globe Award, he must try his best to ensure that he does not get injured or have fluctuations in his competitive state.
With the great success at the competitive level, Ling Feng's value at the commercial level has also become higher and higher, and has even become a favorite in the eyes of major brands.
The brand field has expanded from sports and fashion to all other aspects.
There is no other way, who told him to have good football skills and good looks!
It is worth mentioning that even the famous fast food brand Mai Mouluo invited him to become the spokesperson ambassador in the UK.
When he received the invitation, Ling Feng immediately thought of someone from London who likes to eat burgers.
Fortunately, this endorsement does not require him to eat hamburgers every day, he only needs to eat a few while filming commercials.
However, after the filming, Ling Feng also made a special video call with Azar so that he could give his name when he went to Mai Lao to eat burgers in the future.
Break a bone!
Hazard's reaction was to give him a thumbs up with a smile on his face, giving him the Belgian's favorite thumbs up.
As he endorses more and more commercial brands, Ling Feng’s influence at the commercial level is growing, even beyond the football circle.
American media selects the 100 most handsome faces in the world every year, and Ling Feng, as one of the only four football players on the list, successfully made the list.
The other three selected are the "heartthrob" Beckham ranked 18th, Cristiano Ronaldo ranked 46th, and Neymar ranked 73rd.
Ling Feng's ranking is 23rd, second only to Beckham, who has a huge influence.
It is enough to show how good Ling Feng’s appearance is!
The most important thing is that his appearance belongs to the type of killing both East and West.
Some Hollywood directors even liked his appearance and passion on the court and invited him to guest star in movies.
Therefore, in order to better help his personal development at the business level, Mendes also equipped him with a business development team comparable to Ronaldo.
Bauer, an MBS graduate from Munich Business School and a former employee of Hoffenheim Club, is the chief consultant of this business development team.
This is a very experienced and thoughtful young man. He also accepted Mendes' invitation because he saw Ling Feng's huge potential.
A few days before meeting Ferguson, Ling Feng had a discussion with Mendes, his agent in charge of athletics, and Ball, his chief consultant in charge of business.
The topic of discussion is naturally which club to join next season, which is the best choice for him!
It is worth mentioning that as a leading figure, Ling Feng followed the example of a certain blond Norwegian and asked the team to list and rank the major clubs that he could potentially join.
Among the final candidates, there are four clubs, namely Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and Real Madrid.
The three criteria for ranking are one is Champions League qualification, one is business and treatment, and the last one is which club needs him more!
In terms of Champions League qualification, in addition to Real Madrid, which is stable in the Champions League, and Chelsea, which is determined not to play in the Champions League, the Manchester City duo have not yet completely locked in the Champions League qualification.
With three rounds left in the league, Tottenham have 72 points and are basically locked in second place in the league.
Man City has 64 points, slightly ahead.
Arsenal has 59 points and Manchester United has 58 points, only one point difference.
However, in theory, Manchester United still has the possibility of overtaking Arsenal or Manchester City and reaching the top four in the league.
Because Manchester City is about to have a strong dialogue with Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals.
Pellegrini is likely to rotate in the league and strive to go further in the Champions League.
So, if Manchester City loses in the league and Manchester United wins consecutively, there is still a certain chance.
Ranking based on Champions League qualification alone, Manchester United obviously has the lowest score.
However, from the perspective of business development and treatment, Manchester United scores the highest!
Although the club's internal management is in chaos and its ability to recruit and transfer is not up to standard, it will only raise prices everywhere.
However, in terms of club business development, Manchester United CEO "Sandoku" Woodward is definitely the top 3 player in football!
With the help of the platform of Manchester United, Ling Feng can extend his influence to the whole world and truly become a world-famous superstar!
Next is Real Madrid.
As the most influential club in the world, Real Madrid can be said to be the final destination for all superstars.
However, compared to Manchester United, Real Madrid's chairman Lafayette is more shrewd.
In terms of image rights and personal treatment, Real Madrid will definitely not give Ling Feng too much preferential treatment.
After all, even Real Madrid’s number one Ronaldo cannot take advantage of Lafayette.
As for Chelsea and Manchester City, they are both nouveau riche.
The treatment is definitely good, but the brand influence is far less than the first two.
Finally, from the perspective of club demand, Manchester United is also the club with the highest score!
First of all, the other three clubs, Manchester City has De Bruyne and David Silva, Real Madrid has Modric, and Chelsea has Cesc Fabregas.
Only Manchester United lacks a midfield commander like Ling Feng who can continuously create opportunities for the team and send threatening passes to the forwards.
Secondly, Lingfeng's huge commercial value makes all clubs salivate!
Whether it is in terms of competitive performance or business development, Manchester United needs him very much!
However, Ling Feng is not sure whether Manchester United needs him or Mourinho needs him.
Or, both.
Of course, judging from Ferguson's personal recruitment, Manchester United definitely needs him.
However, the club's demand only reflects how much effort and concessions the club can make in order to sign him.
You can’t just go there if Manchester United needs you so much, right?
After all, there are so many factors to consider when players transfer.
Team tactics, club platform, personal planning, financial benefits, living environment, etc.
As a powerful agent, Mendes asked Ling Feng a very key question Question:
"The players the club needs or the players the head coach needs, which one do you choose?"
"What's the difference?"
Immediately afterwards, Mendes asked his important player Customers become knowledgeable.
The former is an important asset of the club that was purchased by the club after considering all aspects of the player's comprehensive factors! The latter is a direct team introduced by the head coach based only on the team's tactical system and the players' personal strengths!
Both are the same, but different.
Take Manchester United’s Louis van Gaal and Blind.
If Van Gaal dismisses get out of class, as his direct team, Blind's situation in the team will be very embarrassing.
As the saying goes, there is one emperor and one courtier.
Because in order to establish his authority and voice in the locker room, the next Manchester United coach will definitely introduce the players he wants to establish his own direct lineage.
The players introduced by the previous coach will become remnants of the previous dynasty.
Most of the fates are only two.
Clean or discard!
Of course, as long as there is enough strength that the team cannot ignore, no matter who the head coach is, the club will not give up such a valuable asset!
And Ling Feng’s answer was full of confidence:
"I am the kind of player that both the club and the head coach need and cannot do without me!"
However, even if Manchester United is in deep trouble, it is definitely the club that needs him to save it the most.
And Mourinho promised to regard him as the core of the team to revive Manchester United.
But if Manchester United cannot reach the top four of the league this season, he does not want to go to Manchester United where there is no Champions League to play.
Of course, if you really want to join, that’s not impossible.
Show greater sincerity than other clubs and make him unable to refuse!
Ferguson was not offended by Ling Feng's straight-to-the-point approach, but the admiration in his eyes grew stronger.
Although the two had little contact, they only met alone twice.
However, he could see that Ling Feng was a very independent young man with a clear understanding of his own goals and pursuits.
Completely different from those rookies who immediately signed the contract after being fooled by him!
"What do you mean by sincerity?"
"I hope the team can sign one of my teammates before signing me."
Hearing this condition, Ferguson couldn't help but wonder. Stunned.
If it was when he was still coaching, he would definitely leave on the spot.
Who do you think you are? !
Zidane or Ronaldinho? !
Are you bringing a ball boy with you during the transfer? !
But since retiring, Ferguson has taken care of his health and cultivated his mind and character, and his violent temper in the past has gradually become much gentler.
Seeing Manchester United in decline, he felt relieved.
Now Manchester United can no longer attract superstars.
If you want a popular player like Ling Feng to join today's Manchester United, the price you have to pay will naturally be higher.
Moreover, if we really want to count the famous stars in the entire football world, there is really no player more suitable to shoulder the important task of Manchester United's revival than Ling Feng.
In terms of strength, Ling Feng is already the best in the Premier League with double 20 goals and assists.
In terms of age, he is only twenty years old, and he has at least ten years of peak life!
In terms of fame, he is the number one player in England and even the new generation of football!
Therefore, Ferguson did not show any dissatisfaction or unhappiness, but asked:
"Who?"
Just when Ferguson thought Ling Feng mentioned the other two "Blue Fox Three Musketeers" When he heard his name, Ling Feng's answer surprised him:
"N'Golo Kante!"
Hearing this name, Ferguson's mind suddenly A figure in blue clothes appeared, running around the field.
It turned out to be the French guy!
The next second, Ferguson immediately realized a very critical issue:
This kid is definitely not a whim!
Why not ask Manchester United to sign Vardy or Mahrez, but sign Kante?
Obviously, in Ling Feng's view, Kanter is more important than his two frontcourt partners!
And why is Kante, a defensive midfielder who is mainly responsible for defense and not very good in the game, more important than Vardy, who is expected to win the Premier League Golden Boot, and Mahrez, who has 15 goals and assists in the league?
Without him, he can raise the team's midfield defense to a higher level!
Ferguson also watched the Europa League match between Leicester City and Manchester United at Old Trafford.
At that time, apart from Ling Feng, the most outstanding performer in Leicester City's formation was the short and thin French giant!
In Ferguson's view, the reason why Leicester City was able to sweep the Premier League this season and win the championship ahead of schedule was not only the terrifying firepower of the Blue Fox trio headed by Ling Feng, but also Kante's protection and sweep in the midfield. is crucial.
The reason why Mourinho's Chelsea was able to sweep the Premier League in the first period was that Makelele's role is self-evident.
If we can win the "new Makelele" Kante and the best player in the Premier League Ling Feng, Manchester United's shortcomings of weak midfielders for many years can be solved!
Thinking of this, Ferguson seemed to have seen the hope of Manchester United's re-emergence, and immediately cheered up:
"I understand."
"I will give you your The conditions were communicated to Ed (Woodward). However, I don’t want to interfere too much in the club’s affairs.”
"I am just an ordinary Manchester United fan without any position in the club."
There was a bit of bitterness in his words.
Thinking about it, seeing how Manchester United has turned into what it is now after his retirement, Ferguson also hates that iron cannot be transformed into steel.
Despite what he said, Ferguson has made up his mind to use his influence to convince Manchester United's top brass to sign Kante and Ling Feng!
Standing up, Ferguson patted Ling Feng on the shoulder and said softly:
"Young man, today is your big day, so I won't waste your time. Let's have a meal again if we have the chance."
"That will be my honor."
< br>After watching Ferguson leave, Mendes, dressed in a black suit, appeared like a ghost at the right time.
"How was your chat?"
"We didn't talk much, we just tested Sir Alex's attitude and sincerity."
"What do you think?"
Faced with Mendes' question, Ling Feng just raised his eyebrows and gave an ambiguous answer:
"We'll wait until Manchester United qualify for the Champions League. Bar."
At the same time, on the other side.
Ferguson, who had just walked out of the club and returned to his car, immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of Manchester United CEO Woodward:
"Ed, we need to talk!"
