Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Sky Sports: "If players from the French amateur leagues can play in the Premier League, then every Ligue 1 player would be a superstar in the Premier League! Manchester City is trying to replicate Sporting Lisbon's success, but they will never understand the fundamental reasons for Sporting Lisbon's success!"

"Historical foundation! Sporting Lisbon has a history of ruthless tactics! It has a strong youth academy! They have the best youth coaches!"

"Only they can spot the dust-covered gold in a pile of rubbish at a glance! And only they can clean away that dust!"

"That's ridiculous! Ribery can score five goals in the Premier League? I, the editor-in-chief, would have to piss on my head!"

English media outlets are going crazy telling the world the "real reason" behind Sporting Lisbon's successful transfer.

Just like how foreign car companies will frantically tell domestic car owners that Mercedes-Benz and BMW are luxury cars because they have luxury genes!

Almost the entire world believes what the English media says, because that's what they think too.

Until Sporting Lisbon officially announced the early closure of the transfer window for this season and released their transfer revenue for this summer.

Total... 180 million euros!

Net income!

If we take into account the bonus that Deng Kai earned for leading the team to the championship... that figure reaches 200 million!

Sporting Lisbon's official statement: "We can't say more, but we just want to emphasize one point... Dunquet is the greatest player in Sporting Lisbon's history! Without a doubt!"

"No club in the world, apart from Manchester City themselves, knows better than us what Manchester City has been up to this summer!"

"We firmly believe that within three years at most, Duncan will lead Manchester City back to the Champions League!"

Sporting Lisbon's statement seems odd.

English media criticized Manchester City for a long time, using Sporting Lisbon as an example, but the same Sporting Lisbon turned around and praised Manchester City, even offering their blessings.

This……

Well, so you two are now brothers.

Grass!

……

Manchester City is still playing the lottery! They didn't buy the incredibly valuable Anelka for 20 million, but instead bought the so-called "Holy Child" from Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Second Division for 3 million!

Fernando Torres? In terms of style, could he be the Spanish version of Cristiano Ronaldo?

Manchester City snatches a baby from the jaws of defeat! Real Madrid also hoped to sign Torres, but were rejected by the player himself!

Debunking the myth! It's Real Madrid's youth academy that wants to sign Torres! Torres won't be capable of playing in the Premier League for at least three years!

Guardiola has submitted his pledge of allegiance.

Although it was somewhat troublesome, he eventually managed to get Deng Kai's instructions done.

Believe it or not, the biggest reason Torres was willing to join Manchester City was actually what Guardiola told him: "Playing alongside Duncan will be very rewarding. In three years, you might become the next Ronaldo!"

€3.8 million! Manchester City buys another goalkeeper! Czech goalkeeping prodigy Petr Cech, who played for Sparta Prague, joins Manchester City!

Petr Cech possesses exceptional talent! Becoming a world-class goalkeeper is only a matter of time! Ligue 1 side Rennes' offer is only €50,000 less than Manchester City's!

Wenger: I've been watching Cech for a long time; he should have come to Arsenal. We were just a generation away from signing him!

Manchester Evening News: "Manchester City needs to understand one thing: not every goalkeeper named Peter is Schmeichel!"

Schmeichel, Lehman, Cech, Caballero... Is Manchester City preparing to gather seven goalkeepers to summon a dragon?

Kicker: "Manchester City sign Bayern Munich academy graduate Lahm for €4 million! This is punishment for Lahm losing the competition with Schweinsteiger!"

Bild: "Bayern Munich youth academy star joins Manchester City! He once played alongside Duncan, and their development has been vastly different four years later!"

Beckenbauer: "Lahm is a great kid, but he's too young. He'll have to wait at least five years to play for Bayern's first team! But at Manchester City, he'll be playing right away."

Hoeneß: "Letting Lahm go was a reluctant decision. Schweinsteiger, who is better than him, was loaned out, so it's reasonable for him to be sold. Of course, if he's good enough, he can come back anytime."

Manchester City responded with a five-year contract, telling Hoeness there was no way!

Moreover, Ram's contract was specially made, with a low salary and high bonuses.

If Lahm tries to threaten the team into releasing him by lying down after he's made it through the season, Manchester City won't suffer a significant loss.

Of course, this is just a small precaution that Mansour is taking in advance to address the potential problems with Bayern Munich players.

You can guard against honest people, but not against scoundrels.

If Ram really breaks off relations, there are still many ways for her to go back.

It's like making a decision first, then avoiding chaos.

Deng Kai also took the initiative to contact Ram and asked him not to be angry with Mansur.

Middle Eastern tycoons may not care about money, but they fear being disrespected the most.

This clause is primarily for the purpose of mutual respect.

Mansour: ? ? ?

Mansour: Wasn't it you who jumped up and down, saying you had to revise the contract for Ram yourself? You've been made the good guy?

Ram also expressed his understanding.

After all, he's a German player, and Bayern Munich has a lot of appeal... Real Madrid also said they were interested in Ballack this summer, and both their transfer fee and salary offer were much higher than Bayern's.

However, Ballack ultimately joined Bayern Munich after considering various factors, including national and team factors.

After that, Ballack received strong support from his Bayern Munich teammates in the national team, which gave him the opportunity to shine. He successfully took advantage of this World Cup to succeed Matthäus and become the German national team's chief midfielder!

In fact, Manchester City's terms are not only favorable to Manchester City, but also to Lahm.

Otherwise... Lahm is afraid that if he really leaves the club, under pressure from all sides, he might not be able to control himself and return to Bayern!

France Football: "Perhaps we've all underestimated this Manchester City team! Or perhaps, we've become so accustomed to seeing Duncan and Ronaldo that we've forgotten that these young Manchester City players are truly one in a hundred football geniuses!"

Tuttosport: "We are delighted to announce the official establishment of the European Golden Boy award next year!"

"We are one of the earliest and most comprehensive media outlets in the world to focus on young players."

"Eighteen-year-old Lahm is one of the most outstanding players in Bayern's youth academy! Schweinsteiger beat him to the first team early not because the latter was too good, but because Lahm's competitor was the formidable Lizarazu!"

"Twenty years old wouldn't be a big deal for other positions, but for a goalkeeper like Cech, it's clearly too young, which has caused him to miss several opportunities to join top clubs. However, his true ability is definitely at the level of a Premier League starter!"

"Torres is only eighteen years old, but he's already been playing professional football for two years! Real Madrid didn't buy him to spite their city rivals, but because they saw a resemblance to Raul in him, except Torres is even faster than Raul at the same age!"

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
