The team started training and the Forest's actions in the transfer market did not stop for a moment.

In midfield, Forest have finally bought Leeds United youngster Lennon, who they wanted to buy in the winter transfer window last season. Leeds United were relegated to the First Division as Dune expected, and then declared bankruptcy, leaving the team facing the possibility of another relegation. At this time, the insiders of the team are excited, and it is normal for anyone to leave the team. Donn asked again about Leeds United's offer for Lennon, and Leeds United, frustrated by the debt problem, did not ask for a young player's price, and they offered a price that Donn could accept - £1 million.

Lennon himself has a clearer understanding of the fact that leaving Leeds United would be a better development...... If he stays at Leeds United, it will be impossible to change the status quo on his own. At the age of sixteen, he was just getting into the first team and was in the Premier League at this time, and Nottingham Forest, who were very sincere to him, were the best choice.

Don was worried about the long nights and dreams, so he didn't say a word, and signed a contract with Lennon in a flash of lightning, and since then, this England's star of hope has become the post-80s Shaolin abbot station to announce the signing of England's star Lennon, England's media realized that they are paying attention to the disputes in the transfer market between the new Chelsea Mourinho and Arsenal and Manchester United this summer, but they have ignored the quiet promotion of Nottingham Forest.

Although it is not yet known how the Forest will perform after the start of the season, they are already on a high-profile run in the transfer market.

The Sun has done a special analysis and prediction of the movements of clubs in the summer transfer period. Among the headline images are several Premier League giants: Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, Chelsea's new manager, the talented coach Jose Mourinho, who has just led Portugal's Porto to the Champions League, and Benitez, who also joined Liverpool from Valencia, Spain, as a success, and the man who was placed behind them was Nottingham Forest's manager Toni. Dawn.

According to the analysis in the article, as a new team in the Premier League and a team participating in the League Cup, the Forest team is facing the dilemma of fighting on multiple fronts...... But that's not for Tony. Coach Donn, on the other hand, gave him the opportunity to expand his team. So far, Forest's main players have been young players, and it can be seen that Donn has his eyes on the future. However, the Premier League is a top league after all, and the goals of the club's hierarchy will change accordingly. If you don't get results that satisfy them, it doesn't matter how young and talented the players are.

In succession the introduction of Herad. Piquee and Niklas. Bendtner, and Aaron. After Lennon, what will happen to Donn's Forest team?

※※※The sun at the end of June was hot and strong, and at noon, the concrete floor on the pier was scorching hot. It was lunch break, and the cramped, dilapidated dock was empty, with only one man still sitting on the shore, ignoring the blazing voices overhead.

This is the small town of Boulogne on the west coast of France, which is coldly considered "the worst town in France" in romantic France, and poverty plagues every town's residents. It also haunts this young man sitting in the sun.

He looked down at the water that was pounding at the dock beneath his feet, and a long scar on the right cheek was shocking in the sunlight.

The young man frowned, thinking about something very important to him - money.

At the age of sixteen, he moved from his home to Lille in pursuit of his dream of playing professional football, only to be abandoned because of his low education, where young players, like most clubs in France, are required not only to learn the skills of football, but also to reach a certain level of literacy. Five years have passed, and now he can't even afford the rent.

A year ago he played in Arras and was only paid 150 euros a month, and he couldn't even afford to rent a house. In order to change this embarrassing situation, he changed clubs, Brest in the second division, but the situation did not improve, except for the necessary expenses, and by the end of the season he found that he had actually not earned a penny.

With his contract expiring, the club clearly did not intend to renew the contract of this ugly and unlikable youngster, and with Brest themselves not in a good situation, he had to find a team again...... But he found that he did not seem to have a future of his own in France, the big clubs did not look down on him, and the small clubs had too little money.

It's a real headache...... The young man scratched his head and accidentally touched the scar on his cheek.

It was caused by a car accident when he was two years old. He flew out of the car window, and although he saved his life, he was left with this eternal scar on his face. This used to be the reason why he was ridiculed and teased, and it was an existence that made him feel ashamed. He wanted to dig out the scar with a knife...... Of course, what he wants to do most is to find a plastic surgeon and repair the scar for him. It's a good idea, modern technology does exactly what he wants, the only question is ...... He has no money.

The failed professional footballer sat by the sea with a sad face for a noon, and he had no idea what his future would be. Dizzy from the sun, he got up and staggered to his rented house, which was not far from the dock, and walked straight out of the dock, passed a street, and then passed through a clearing full of garbage and overgrown grass. If you open the window, you can see the sea outside - of course, only halfway through, so the view is not very good.

This is not a luxurious beach house, but a small four-story brick building with an ordinary gray spire, and young people live in the attic on the top floor, which is dimly lit. Every time he opened the half of the window and looked out at the sea, he wondered if it would be better to leave France. He really couldn't see his future here, only the English Channel shrouded in fog in front of him, what awaited him on the other side of the fog?

He took out the key and unscrewed the dilapidated door, he saw the chubby landlady standing on the porch, holding the microphone in her hand, and when she heard the door ringing, she turned her head and saw that the person who came in was Scarface, and hurriedly shouted: "Frank! Come here! ”

She took the microphone and beckoned to the young man standing in the doorway.

"What are you doing? Find yours! What a coincidence, I was just about to say to him that you're not here, come on! ”

Shoving the phone into the young man's hand, the landlady turned around and "squirmed" and walked upstairs.

The young man was stunned for a moment, then put the earpiece to his ear and whispered into the microphone, "Hey? ”

There was a male voice over there, clearly pronounced in French. "Excuse me, it's Frank. Mr. Ribery? ”

"Yes...... It's me. ”

"To introduce myself, I'm Arnold, a scout from Nottingham Forest FC who specializes in the French region. Duran. ”

These were the words of the self-proclaimed scout, which made Ribery feel as if he was in a cloud, and he even wondered if it was because he was exposed to the sun outside in the middle of the day, and he was dizzy, hallucinating and hallucinating.

"Yes, my boss is very interested in you and he wants to ask you what your answer is to invite you to join Nottingham Forest in the Premier League."

Nottingham Forest? Has anyone heard of this name? Wait a minute...... What did he say? Premier League teams? Is there such a team in the Premier League?

All right...... I don't really care about English football.

"Mr. Ribery?" Unable to hear Ribery's answer, Forest's new scout Durandolph asked again.

"Ah...... Ah......" Ribery opened his mouth, not knowing what to do with the sudden news. First of all, let's ignore whether this Nottingham Forest is really a Premier League team, and whether the name is familiar or unfamiliar, just now he was still worried about the rent, and now the job opportunity is coming to the door! Such a good thing...... It will fall to him Frank. Ribery's head?

"I'm sorry, sir...... I'm just, just a little incredulous...... You know, I just had my contract with the team expired, and ...... And I'm playing in the French third division, so ...... I'm not sure ......" Ribery stammered, trying to swallow a mouthful, "are you serious?" ”

After asking, he heard another man's voice on the other end of the phone, speaking in English, and speaking so fast that he couldn't understand it at all. After a while, Arnold. Duran's voice rang out again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ribery. It was my boss, Forest coach Tony. Mr. Donn, he asked me to tell you, you don't have to doubt the real name of this call, we do have a crush on you who are still playing in the third division. Nottingham Forest, who had just been promoted to the Premier League from the second tier at the end of last season, won the English League Cup last season and qualified for this season's UEFA Cup, Mr. Donn believes that your technical characteristics are fully suited to the tactical needs of the Forest team, so he would like to talk to you about the contract, and if you agree, we will prepare a ticket for you from France to the United Kingdom, all at the Forest Club's expense. ”

Hanging up the phone, Ribery's ears still seemed to be the same Duran saying - the Premier League, the League Cup, the League Cup qualification, the new contract, the salary...... Am I dreaming?
