While Li Huan was with his friends and had a farewell drink, Wenger was in Kroenke's office communicating with his new boss about Li Huan's transfer.

Unlike other giants in the Premier League, such as Manchester United and Chelsea, Arsenal have long pursued a self-sufficient financial approach, with shareholders completely decentralizing power to the management of the team. It has been analysed that Kroenke's acquisition of Arsenal could bring a huge amount of money to the club, which may be beneficial to the development of the team at the beginning, but it is also likely to destroy the team structure that manager Arsene Wenger has carefully built over the years. After Kroenke's takeover exceeded the 30 per cent threshold, Arsene Wenger told the media that he would not tolerate anyone's interference in the team's affairs.

But Kroenke likes to be hands-on with the sports he invests in. After completing the acquisition of the Denver Nuggets, he said that he would give the team's top management the maximum management authority, and the fact is that Kroenke has been keeping a close eye on the team's movements, and even when Kroenke is out, he has asked managers to communicate with him by email. Kroenke is a brilliant businessman, though, and while he's been keeping a close eye on him, he'll stay behind the scenes if the team doesn't go bad.

Arsene Wenger was happy that his hands were finally tight, but he was also uneasy that Kroenke had just taken over Arsenal and was meddling in transfers. The Frenchman currently has a great deal of autonomy at Arsenal, the club does not have a sporting director position, and it is basically up to him to buy and sell players. This time Li Huan's transfer was proposed by Kroenke and discussed with Wenger, although this is a good thing for Wenger, but it also means that his authority will be weakened, and he has been virtually demoted to an ordinary coach, passively accepting the players handed over to them by the club and training them.

Kroenke seemed to sense Wenger's uneasiness, and he said to Wenger gently: "Coach Arsina, this time Li Huan's transfer will have a major impact, and the transfer amount involved is too large, so I will personally intervene, and I will act in accordance with Arsenal tradition in the future, please rest assured." ”

"People from other countries will bring in their own way of governing. And in England, the tradition already exists, there is no doubt about it. Wenger didn't say it softly, but he actually didn't want Kroenke to get involved in these specific matters.

Kroenke smiled: "I understand that tradition must be valued. But this transfer happened by accident, we can't let Chelsea have the World Footballer of the Year Li Huan, and our shareholders will never pay 100 million to buy people, so I have just done what I was going to do in a year's time. ”

Wenger said flatly: "Thank you Mr. Kroenke for bringing me Li Huan, I never had the luxury of having such a player, but after Li Huan arrived, our trouble will be even greater." ”

"Trouble?" Kroenke: "Yes, it's just trouble. Arsene Wenger said firmly: "Before we can get the help of Li Huan, the World Footballer, we have to solve these troubles. First of all, the superstar you brought me, his annual salary is too high, 14 million pounds, 260,000 a week, and our current highest annual salary Fabregas is only 80,000 pounds, how can you balance the hearts of other players. Second, such a high annual salary is already difficult to integrate into the team, not to mention such a high value, does it make this Chinese a special one? Third, our left and right defenders have world-class full-backs, what will they do after Li Huan arrives? Sell? Or as a substitute? Fourth, even if these problems are solved, whether Li Huan can integrate into the team is still between the two. ”

Kroenke listened to Wenger spit out a lot of bitterness, but he still smiled, and didn't seem to take it to heart at all, he knew what Wenger meant, this is not to want him to meddle in the transfer matter in the future, because he was angry with Wenger when he was planning to buy Li Huan, and Wenger agreed, and now Wenger has said a lot of difficulties, of course, these difficulties also exist objectively, but Kroenke believes that Wenger has long been confident.

Wenger saw Kroenke's silent appearance, and immediately said: "No, Adebayo's agent has contacted me, he hopes that Adebayo's weekly salary will rise to 120,000 pounds, otherwise Adebayo will transfer to a team that can give him such a high annual salary, Adebayo's agent said that since Arsenal can even pay out a weekly salary of 260,000 pounds, can't even his 120,000 pounds be willing to pay?"

Kroenke snorted coldly and said, "The world will turn the same without anyone, and if he wants to go, let him go." This time it was Wenger's turn to be surprised, and said: "Let Adebayo go?" His body and header can almost catch up with Drogba, and with such a player, we have an extra weapon to break down the dense defense, not to mention Adebayo's skills are really good. How can such a player be let go? Kroenke said: "Lack of greed, don't look at your own catties, boldly release people, even Henry can let go, who can't let go, the transfer fee can be bought by you to buy a new striker, if it's not enough, the club can also subsidize it again." ”

Wenger said bitterly, why do you have plenty of money in your hand, and you can buy whoever you want, but he is a little uncomfortable, "Can we still buy people again?" ”

Kroenke laughed: "Of course, as long as the team needs it, I will do my best to meet it. ”

Wenger was sure that Arsenal had really changed owners, and he couldn't help but stand up happily and said: "Yes, Henry is gone, Adebayo has grown up, Adebayo is gone, and we still have Bendtner." With the addition of a few more experienced veterans, we also have the possibility of winning the treble.

Kroenke smiled: "Now can you tell me about your use of Li Huan?" I've always been curious about it. Wenger said with a smile: "Li Huan can actually be called a versatile player, he can almost be qualified for all positions except goalkeepers and strikers, so it will definitely not be too difficult to arrange him, but it is not easy to become the core of the team, our offense does not have an absolute core, multi-point offense is in full bloom, the current style of play is formulated around Fabregas, Li Huan is a wing player, and the core of the attack is difficult to be placed on the side, so it is good for Li Huan to be able to play the main force at the beginning." Kroenke smiled slightly and said, "In this way, the biggest contradiction is the annual salary and worth." Arsene Wenger nodded and said: "This is the main problem, I will help him, but the main thing is to depend on his own efforts, if he shows the same level as his annual salary transfer fee, the players will naturally slowly accept this fact." Kroenke said approvingly: "Coach Arsna, I believe you will use this Chinese well." ”

Arsene Wenger smiled bitterly: "I will work hard, the world's most valuable player can't play at Arsenal, and my pressure will not be small." ”

Kroenke laughed, "I have a greater responsibility. ”

The two of them couldn't help but laugh when they said this, and the little mustard that began to arise from the transfer was gone.
