It's a cold day in Lisbon in December, and a secret meeting is going on in an inconspicuous café.

Martin. Alex Ferguson's brother, Alex Ferguson's brother and Manchester United's scout, was preaching to Mendes about Sir Alex Ferguson's Cristiano. Ronaldo's interest.

"Mr. Mendez, I am here in good faith, and Alex is very good at Cristiano. Ronaldo has a lot of interest! "Martin. Ferguson stressed again that the purpose of his visit to Lisbon was to meet Mendes, Cristiano. Ronaldo's performances at Trapani have not been particularly impressive, but he has shown a lot of potential.

After an injury, he returned to play against Napoli on 15 December, scoring a goal for Trapani after coming off the bench. Ferguson began to propose an acquisition to Ferguson.

Ferguson was rejected by Hugo in the summer, but this talent really itched him, and with his permission, Martin. Ferguson is starting to follow the path of the players, and agent Mendes is naturally a key figure.

However, the meeting did not go so well, with Mendes versing Cristiano. Ronaldo's move to Manchester United doesn't seem so focused.

"I'm so grateful, Sir Alex Ferguson for his appreciation of Ronaldo! But this thing really has to be forgiven for what I can't do! Cristiano had a great time in Trapani and he had no plans to leave Trapani for the time being! Mendez laughed.

"Mr. Mendez, do you know what you're refusing?! It's the best club in the world, it's the famous Manchester United! "Martin. Ferguson had an expression of disbelief.

"Mr. Alex Ferguson, I have a very good opinion of Manchester United and it is something we are very proud of to have Cristiano in your favour as well! But Cristiano is really doing well in Trapani! He has a regular position in Trapani and has plenty of room to grow...... Mendes crackled and said, to the effect that this is the case anyway, and Ronaldo does not need to go to Manchester United.

Martin. Ferguson had no choice but to tell Sir Alex Ferguson that people didn't want to leave!

"How do you talk to each other?!" Sir Alex Ferguson asked, and Martin Ferguson had to repeat the secret conversation between the two men as it was.

"I can give what Trapani can give, I can also give him plenty of playing time, I will teach him carefully, you wait over there, make another appointment with him, I will talk to him on the phone!" Sir Alex Ferguson swore to not give up if he didn't achieve his goal.

Martin. Ferguson had no choice but to ask Mendes again, and Mendes agreed to meet this time, and the real reason was that he was tempted.

It would certainly be unkind to Hugo to do so, and Mendes has heard Hugo say more than once that he would not sell Cristiano. Ronaldo, he will keep Ronaldo, he sees Ronaldo as the cornerstone of Trapani's future.

But Mendes thinks it's a good deal, first of all, Ronaldo can get the benefits, Zeman is good at training young people, isn't Ferguson?! With the training of the 92 class, Ferguson led this group of young people to sweep the continent, can't he train Ronaldo well, he must even do better than Zeman, and Trapani is a small club after all, following Manchester United Ronaldo is more likely to have the opportunity to contact the championship and show himself on the highest stage in Europe, Mendes, who knows Trapani's strategy, does not believe that Trapani can win the championship in the short term, and he does not even have the opportunity to show his face in Europe.

Secondly, this matter is good for himself, not to mention that he can get certain benefits, this is the first business between him and the European giants, and it is good for him to expand his reputation among European football clubs.

To sum up the above reasons, Mendes Mingli said that Cristiano. How Ronaldo is valued in Trapani is actually a signal to Manchester United, look at your chips!

So Martin. Ferguson's second offer was a no-brainer. Ferguson dialed his brother's phone, handed it to Mendes, and motioned for Mendes to listen.

"Hello, Mr. Mendez, I'm Alex. Ferguson! ”

The Manchester United manager called him personally, Mendes couldn't believe his ears and stammered hello, Sir Alex Ferguson smiled and said: "I know that the last conversation between Martin and you was inconclusive, this time I want to talk to you personally!" ”

"I said I had to get Cristiano. Ronaldo, this kid! He's one of the most talented kids I've ever seen, I think he deserves to be on a bigger stage than Trapani, and I'm confident that I'll be able to do him well! He's going to be the best player of his age! ”

"You don't have to worry about his future, I can assure you that I will give him plenty of playing time! You don't have to worry about your earnings, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation! ”

Ferguson showed his strong sincerity, he didn't say much, but the chips were not low, and the words of the godfather of such a team were counted, and Mendes could predict that Ferguson would deliver on his promise.

After a little calm, Mendes said: "Sir Alex Ferguson, I am flattered by your appreciation of Critiano!" Thank you so much! I have to say that I was very tempted by your invitation, and I think Cristiano is the same, but Trapani can't let him go! ”

"Hehe, I know! I don't know if you know, as early as half a year ago, I asked Ji'an Luigi. Colani mentioned Cristiano. Ronaldo's transfer question, he refused at the time! That's why we found you, and I think you should have a way, right?! Ferguson said with a smile on the other end of the phone.

Mendes understood, he didn't know that Manchester United had been interested in Ronaldo for a long time, and he didn't know that Manchester United had contacted Hugo as early as the summer, but Hugo didn't tell him, from the side, Hugo should have deliberately concealed him and Ronaldo, which showed that Hugo was not willing to let Ronaldo go.

So what Ferguson means is to let him and Ronaldo force the palace to Trapani, and make a deal through efforts in this regard, Mendes originally thought that Manchester United would use money to impress Trapani, but now it seems that money may not be able to move Hugo, and he needs to come forward.

"I have a good relationship with Mr. Colini, and this matter is a bit of a problem!" Mendes said embarrassed.

"But Cristiano. Ronaldo is your player, you should think more about him, his age, what team, what kind of manager is the best for him, you should know very well, right?! ”

"Trapani is a small team, their squad or the manager is not stable enough, but it's not like that at Manchester United, you should know that my position is something that no one can shake, as long as I'm in the team, I can continue to develop Cristiano and give him a chance, and Trapani can?! Obviously it can't, it's not difficult for them to change the head coach, the key is to change the new coach, will they give him a chance like Zeman?! That kind of development is better for Cristiano, you can't be unclear, right?! "Ferguson's persuasion was very persuasive.

Cristiano Ronaldo is now expected to become Mendes' golden signboard, Mendes naturally hopes that Ronaldo's development will be smooth and make a name for himself on the continent as soon as possible, and a club like Manchester United is an excellent choice.

"I'll try, I'm not sure I'll be able to convince Mr. Colani! He thinks a lot about Cristiano, and we can't get out with them! Mendez said.

Sir Alex Ferguson was a little disappointed, he would have liked Mendes and Trapani to have a falling out, in which case he didn't believe Hugo would force Cristiano Ronaldo to stay, and he wouldn't have done that if he was a little smarter.

In any case, today's secret chat has made significant progress, and Mendes is willing to step in and do Coleni's work.

But is Ronaldo the only team interested in him, Manchester United?! Of course not!

Before Christmas, Trapani completed the last game of the winter break, away to challenge the same island rival Messina, in this game, Trapani took advantage of the victory over Napoli in the last round, defeated Messina 3:2, not only reached 24 points to rank seventh, but also narrowed the gap with the top team, the top of the last round was Sampdoria, the end of this round has been replaced by Triestina, they have accumulated 29 points.

Now the entire league of Serie B is a bit chaotic, weak teams like Triestina can be ranked at the top of the table, and then the points gap between each other in the upper half of the region is very small, several teams with the same points, and it may change at any time, such a situation is a good thing for Trapani, who is not very good in the first half of the state, the first army of Serie B has not appeared, as long as the second half is better, the league championship is also very dramatic.

So Trapani's Christmas was not bad, and Hugo also announced the prize money to everyone at the Christmas dinner.

Victor also came back at Christmas, he asked Hugo about his loan, Hugo remembered that his brother was still in dire straits, and called Galliani, and Galliani mentioned Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo missed nearly two months due to injury, playing a total of eight league games in the first half, contributing four goals and three assists.
