Chapter 791: I'm an Exception

A week after the European Championship final, the European Championship craze has completely faded and the eyes of the world are back on the transfer market.

How many of the players who have excelled at the European Championship have made it to the big clubs?

Russia's Arshavin, for example, has attracted the favor of giants such as Real Madrid and Barcelona with his excellent performance in the European Championships, and the late bloomer may leave Zetny St. Petersburg this summer.

In addition, the most eye-catching news recently is the signing ceremony of Glory joining Manchester City.

Forty thousand tickets have been sold for the joining ceremony, with 3,000 tickets left to sell out, and 2,000 of those 3,000 tickets are not for sale, reserved for sponsors and politicians.

The stands at Manchester City Stadium have a capacity of 48,000 people, and only 43,000 tickets are sold for safety reasons.

For the first time in the history of the Premier League, a player can sell so many tickets for a joining ceremony.

Glory has once again made history.

Although the media is full of doubts and sober analysis of whether Glory will be able to return to the top, Manchester City fans still have great expectations and hopes for the arrival of Glory.

The fans are kind and irrational, they believe that Glory can return to the top, and the most pessimistic people feel that even if Glory is no longer able to return to its previous form, 80% of its previous ability is enough to help Manchester City beat Manchester United and win the league title......

So they have high hopes for glory.

Although a lot of tickets were sold, Manchester City didn't actually make money from it.

Because these tickets are actually given away for free.

Any Manchester City fan can pick up their tickets at designated locations, up to a maximum of three per person.

Tickets are given away for free, which shows how deep the Manchester City club is – we're not short of money and don't need to rely on ticket revenue to cover our transfer expenses!

However, there are also some dark media who believe that the reason why Manchester City set such a price is to attract more Manchester City fans to watch the event in person, create a warm atmosphere, and please sponsors and glory.

So if it weren't for such a low price, probably half of the Manchester City fans who went to the live ceremony would not have ......

Of course, Manchester City FC was dismissive of such voices and simply ignored them.

In addition, because Mansour, the owner of the Abu Dhabi consortium, also went to the scene to watch the ceremony, the city of Manchester has also increased the security level, and has filmed a lot of police officers.

In addition, Manchester City Club also invited the ambassador of the Chinese Embassy in the United Kingdom to attend the ceremony.

Such a high-level treatment can only be enjoyed by glory - when did players invite ambassadors when they joined the team in the past......

In addition, Manchester City also broadcast the joining ceremony on a number of television stations in Guò.

China's Central Television (CCTV) won the right to broadcast the joining ceremony live, and of course, like the tickets, they were all free.

Manchester City FC even takes into account the viewing time of Chinese TV viewers, starting at 2 o'clock in the afternoon local time in the UK, which happens to be 9 o'clock in the evening in China, which is considered the prime viewing time in China. At that time, fans all over China will be able to watch the ceremony of Glory joining Manchester City through the CCTV sports channel.

In addition, CCTV is also buying the rights to broadcast the game with the Premier League, hoping to get it done before the start of the Premier League.

In this way, fans in China will be able to watch the glorious matches on Guò, China's largest sports channel.

On the morning of July 5, the media began to pay attention to the ceremony of Glory's transfer to Manchester City.

Since 7 o'clock in the morning, fans have been waiting outside the Manchester City Stadium, knowing that the transfer ceremony of Glory will not start until 2 o'clock in the afternoon......

At half past ten in the morning, Rongguang, accompanied by Manchester City club president Fassim, appeared at the hospital for a medical examination.

At the same time, more than 60 photographers and videlists followed the film, and 10 media outlets were allowed to cover the entire medical examination.

The reason why so many reporters pay attention to Rongguang's physical examination is because this physical examination is very special.

For many players, medical examinations are very important, but they are often only perfunctory, even when the media reports are just routine.

But this time, everyone is very concerned about the results of Rongguang's medical examination.

If Rongguang's medical examination is not passed, then this sensational transfer will not be valid. All the previous qiē will be a joke......

Generally speaking, player transfers are rarely stuck on medical results. Transfers worth 100 million euros, in particular, must be made to be foolproof.

But...... The glorious situation is exceptional. He had been seriously injured for half a year before that, and the entire European sports world was wondering if he would ever be able to return to the top and if his body would be able to sustain his speed and explosions.

You may be able to get some clues from the results of the medical examination.

Manchester City FC did not hide it this time, but very generously let ten media follow and report on Rongguang's medical examination throughout the whole process, which seems to show their confidence in Rongguang, they are not worried about jokes at all.

Moreover, in view of Rongguang's injury, this physical examination is also more complicated and more detailed and professional than the general transfer and franchise physical examination.

In the end, it took an hour and a half just to get a physical examination......

The results of the physical examination are also partially released 20 minutes after the end of the physical examination, and the reason why not all of them are released is because some of the results of the examination cannot be released so early, and they must wait for tomorrow or afternoon.

However, the results now are enough to determine whether Glory can sign Manchester City.

It was not the doctor in charge of the examination who announced the results of the medical examination, but Fasim.

The young president of Manchester City FC has been by Glory's side throughout the whole process.

Now he said in front of the cameras of dozens of media outlets: "The results of the medical examination show that Rong is very healthy, especially in the area of his right ankle, where he has suffered a serious injury, and we have done a very detailed examination there, from MRI to X-ray, there is no auspicious indication that Rong Guang's injured ankle is in any danger." His ankle was very good, as if he hadn't been injured at all! ”

As soon as these words came out, it caused an uproar among the media present - can the ankle of Glory be restored so well?

They fear that Manchester City are simply deceiving the media.

However, now they have no evidence to prove this speculation, so they can only suppress it in their hearts, anyway, after the season starts, there is a chance to look for ...... Evidence!

Rongguang listened to Fasim's words with a smile on his face, and then he turned his head to look at Sun Fengyang, who was standing next to him.

Sun Fengyang responded with a smile.

For this result, neither he nor Rongguang was surprised.

Because his grandfather's (old fairy) ability is not bragged, the reason why his family was able to develop and grow in Brazil back then was all due to his grandfather's magical medical skills at the beginning!

If it weren't for the burning of his brain, his grandfather might have been the guest of many Brazilian politicians now......

After the medical examination, Rong Guang took the special car prepared for him by Manchester City Club and went to Manchester City Club to sign a contract.

Witnessed by dozens of media outlets, Glory and Manchester City club president Fassim signed the contracts in front of them separately in the presence of reporters, and then exchanged contracts with each other and signed them again.

In the end, the two exchanged contracts again, and one took a contract and took a group photo in front of the reporter's camera.

This scene means that Rong Rong has become a Manchester City player.

Half a summer's transfer drama has finally come to an end.

There will be no more surprises, the glory is completely Manchester City, and a new page has been turned in his career.

Glory then joined Fasim and Manchester City's new manager Mark Hughes for a press conference.

At the press conference, the reporters' questions did not seem very polite.

After all, with the status and fame achieved by glory, he will inevitably be subject to the scrutiny of the media, which is the responsibility he has to bear as the first person in football.

The reporter who stood up and asked the first question directly asked the question that everyone was most concerned about: "After a serious injury only half a year ago, you moved to Manchester City, and everyone doubted whether you would be able to return to your previous form, what do you think about this?" ”

Such a question is not unexpected, whether it is Manchester City chairman Fassim, manager Mark Hughes, or Glory, it is normal for reporters to ask such questions.

Glory didn't even change the expression on his face, he said: "My goal now is not to get back to my previous form, but to do better than before the injury. ”

Another version of this sentence was said by his agent, and everyone was not surprised by this answer.

But the glory of what the reporters think in their hearts is not in charge.

Do you say do better than before?

Anyone will say a nice scene, what's so strange about this?

Immediately, a reporter stood up and continued to ask questions on this issue: "But the mainstream sports medical community in Europe thinks that your ankle can no longer withstand the strenuous exercise that it used to be......"

Glory's expression remained the same: "There are exceptions to everything. ”

"Do you think you're the exception?" The reporter was aggressive and did not intend to accept this answer from Glory, he looked into Glory's eyes.

Fasim coughed, intending to get the press officer to stop the reporter's statement.

But Rongguang took the lead and said, "Of course." ”

He had a confident smile on his face.

"I don't quite understand where that confidence comes from...... the reporter who asked the question said with his hands outstretched, frowning and shaking his head.

"You don't understand?" Manchester City president Fassim, who was sitting next to him, finally found a chance to speak, and he asked rhetorically: "I think I want to remind this journalist - who can play in the professional league for the first time and score a goal after only a month and a half of learning football? ”

The reporter he asked rhetorically was a little dumbfounded.

You say that glory is not the exception, but doesn't such an expression refute your point of view?

However, Fasim did not plan to let this reporter go like this, he also wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill them all!

He went on to ask rhetorically: "According to the mainstream view, who can help a team win the state championship in six months since they started playing football at the age of sixteen? And who was able to help the team win the national championship after a year of exposure to football? Or who will be able to become an important player in the team's Copa Libertadores title after a year and a half of exposure to football? And who can lead Werder Bremen to break Bayern Munich's monopoly on the Bundesliga title in their first season in Europe? And who can score 10 goals in their first Champions League appearance to become the top scorer? Who has defended the Champions League's top striker and top scorer in a row? As a general rule, how many 21-year-olds have been able to win the Champions League top scorer and best striker three times in a row, and break Altafit's record of 14 Champions League goals? ”

Fasim's series of rhetorical questions not only stunned the reporter, but also made everyone present look at him in surprise - could this kind of thing be said by Fasim himself?

When did he know everything about football?

Even Glory turned his head to look at Fassim.

Fasim had a stern expression on his face, and hummed in his heart: "Hmph! Do you really think I haven't done any homework?! ”

Rong Guang retracted his gaze, and then said to the group of reporters below who were almost dumbfounded: "Well, I agree with Mr. Fasim. ”
