Football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

For a long time, a trip to Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Major League Soccer and more meant the demise of a footballer's career.

It wasn't until 2023 that Ronaldo, who joined Saudi Arabia, returned to Europe and led the team to win the Champions League. This became a new path.

YYDS!

Desailly's family is still trying to persuade him, but Desailly's phone has already rang.

It was his former national team teammate Didier Deschamps.

"Hello, Didier." Desailly answered the phone.

"Marcel, thank God you finally answered the phone." Deschamps' tone was a little flustered, "Hierro is gone! Manchester City's central defender has a vacant starting position, are you coming?"

Desailly was taken aback. Is this...so straightforward?
Didier Deschamps saw that Desailly hadn't spoken, so he quickly said, "I'm the first to call you when there is such a good thing. You hurry up and think about it, Maxa, Schmeichel, and Guardiola are all in contact with other people. "

"If a capable player agrees first, then it will be impossible for you to think about it."

"In order to ensure that the team's strength is at a high level for a long time, Manchester City has strict control over the age of the players."

"As far as I know, 80.00% of Manchester City's signings this season are young people. There will not even be players over 22 years old!"

Desailly was startled.

Is it so young?
Of course, not suspicion, just surprise.

Because Manchester City has used a season to prove that their youth storm is reliable.

Last season, led by Deng Kai, 19-year-old Ribery and Toure, 21-year-old Maicon, Petr Cech and Adriano, 19-year-old Chiellini, Lahm and Thiago Schia Erva, Ashley Young, these players are playing well.

Ribery was also almost shortlisted for the best team in the Premier League.

He has been rated as one of the most difficult wide players to defend by more than ten Premier League clubs.

Yaya Toure was named one of the four New England midfielders along with Gerrard, Lampard and others!

Correspondingly, Manchester City treats veterans very favorably.

If you don't accept your old age and are in good condition, you can even start every game like Hierro.

If you want to stay fit and healthy while playing games, you can also be replaced when you want to be replaced like Baggio.

If you only want to play key games and cup games, you can still be like Lehmann.

In short, Manchester City is a team that does not have strict requirements on veterans.

And... who doesn't want to be surrounded by a group of geniuses called teachers?
Desailly's football career was coming to an end.

But he also hopes to bring out a few future tenable stars.

In this way, his historical status will also be improved.

Chelsea's Terry is very good.

But Terry has learned almost from Desailly, and Desailly has nothing to teach.

As for Manchester City, there are more young Terrys.

The most important thing is that I heard that Deng Kai is very good at winning the championship.

And some media believe that Manchester City is likely to have the ability to compete for the Premier League's fourth or even the championship next season.

Because Deschamps was pressing so hard, Desailly didn't have time to hesitate, and he even panicked: "But Abramovich doesn't seem to want to let me go."

"He also talked to me before. The contract and salary are fine, but he hopes that I can stay on the team as a substitute."

"And I just think it's okay to have a lower salary, but I still want to desperately grasp the tail of my youth and play hard for another year or two."

Deschamps and Desailly hit it off immediately: "That's stable! Our salary is really low, ah bah... we can guarantee your starting position!"

"As for Abramovich, our chairman of Manchester City, Mr. Mansour, will talk to Abramovich in person. They are all local tyrants, and they should have a lot in common."

Desailly nodded repeatedly.

Soon, Mansour found Abramovich.

Mansur moved Abu with just one sentence.

Mansour: "In the future, if Chelsea wants to introduce players from Manchester City, it only needs to be sold at the market price. We will never treat Chelsea as a fool, and we will always respect Abramovich!"

Abu was almost moved and cried.

Sure enough, there has never been so-called empathy in this world, and some are just sympathizing with each other.

No wonder Manchester City are always buying cheap, youngsters.

It must be because they want to buy stars, but other teams in the Premier League cheat them, all at a premium!
It's a pity that Chelsea's family has a big business, and there is no way to cultivate it slowly like Mansur's Manchester City.

Chelsea must succeed in a short period of time, and Abramovich continues to gain personal popularity and recognition in Europe.

Abramovich who got the understanding even directly said that Desailly sent you off!

Mansur shook his head again and again, how can I take advantage of you, brother?
In the end, after some tugging, Chelsea and Manchester City completed the deal.

There are still two years left on the contract, and Desailly, who is still at the tail end of his career peak, transferred to Manchester City at a fracture price of 100 million euros.

This is even cheaper than Hierro's transfer price!
In terms of strength, after the 2002 World Cup, Hierro withdrew from the Spanish national team.

But Desailly just helped the French team win the Confederations Cup.

Subsequently, Chelsea and Manchester City officially announced the deal together.

"Chelsea: Desailly transfers to Manchester City, hope he continues to sail in another touch of blue! "

Manchester City: French superstar Desailly joins Manchester City!From London to Manchester, the dream sky is exceptionally blue! "

"inherited!Desailly posted a picture of the captain's armband and tagged his pupil Terry! "

The New Leader of the Blue Army!John Terry is officially Blues captain!I cast a loyal soul with iron and blood! "

"Alternative Inheritance!The current and former captains of the French team gathered in Manchester City. Desailly said that Deschamps had a decisive influence on his transfer! "

Then, just when people were expecting more signings from Manchester City.

Manchester City held two retirement ceremonies in succession.

One was played at Maine Road Stadium.

It was also the last public event at Main Road Stadium before it was demolished.

There are 8 people, and there are no empty seats.

They were all here to witness the official retirement of Spanish legend Pep Guardiola.

In the past year, Guardiola hardly played for Manchester City. He appeared more in the coaching staff and discussed some things with Deng Kai, Maxa and Deschamps.

People are not surprised by this.

At Guardiola's retirement ceremony, Deng Kai delivered a speech in person, expressing his hope for Guardiola: "I have no doubt that you will become the best head coach in the world in a certain period of time in the future!"

This sentence made many people at the scene smile knowingly.

Kay is still so kind.

Sa Shengdu has not yet become the best head coach in the world.

Guardiola is a bald man, can he understand the ball?
