Walking back to his office, Andy Walsh and Jim Cassel were there.

"What's the matter, Xiao Yu, is it that Novic wants to transfer?" Walsh asked anxiously.

Xiao Yu nodded, "That's right, Steve talked to him last night, so he came to make a statement this morning, this little bastard is really ......" shook his head and smiled bitterly for a while, and continued: "But I didn't plan to let them succeed so easily!" ”

"Are you really going to funk and say Novik is leaving?" Walsh was a little surprised.

"Questions?" Xiao Yu felt that he was making a fuss.

"Xiao Yu, you don't know, he is the main player on the left side of our team, scoring 11 goals and 13 assists this season, and is one of the team's best performers, you let him go, what will happen next season?"

"Andy, don't worry, Novick wants to go, it's useless for us to keep him, besides, I'll never fight a battle that I'm not sure of, since I decided to let him go, it means that I already have a replacement for him, but Bruce obviously still underestimated me, I won't let him go so easily!"

"I agree," Kassel responded to Xiao Yu's words, "I'm also worried that Bruce will take a number of key players from the team, you know, the attraction of the Championship is not something that can be satisfied by money alone, and who wouldn't want to climb to the top of the pyramid as a professional?" ”

"So, I decided to go on vacation, and I won't be able to come back for a while!" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Walsh and Cassel almost fell headlong in a flash, which can be a reason to be lazy?

"In addition, I will release the news through Scarlett that Brighton will enter the transfer market, you know, Brighton, who were almost promoted from League 1 this year, have long been interested in him, and they will increase their investment next year, and they will be more interested in Krovik!"

Brighton are also a very magical team, in Xiao Yu's previous life, in the 99/00 season by a rich man in London, that season almost promoted, and then the second season with an absolute advantage to win the championship and promoted to League Two, and then as a promoted horse to win the championship and promoted to League One.

Promoted in two years, Brighton caused a great sensation in English football at that time, and some people even speculated that with the support of the rich, Brighton would be promoted again and rush to the Premier League.

It's a pity that in the 02-03 season of League One, Brighton seemed to be a little lacking in stamina, especially when they underestimated the gap between League Two and League One, which made the strength of several players introduced by the team fail to play their due strength, and finally broke out in the League One that year, and finally ranked 23rd and was relegated back to League Two.

However, in the year after relegation, Brighton were promoted again, this time after two seasons in League One, but were relegated again in '06 and have not been promoted since.

It can be said that next year's Brighton will be the biggest competitor for promotion to the new Manchester United, but since there are three direct promotion places in League C every season, and there is also a play-off promotion place, Xiao Yu is not particularly worried about this.

Xiao Yu is a typical internal strength type, he always believes that as long as his team is strong enough, then he doesn't have to worry about the strength of the opponent, if he loses, then he must be inferior in skills, and he must find the reason in the failure, and he can't blindly bury the opponent.

"Let Brighton cause some trouble for Birmingham!" Cassel said with a smile.

"But you must pay attention, none of the other players can let go, they are all the vital core players of our team to play in the League C next year, and they are all let go, how can our team still play?"

Walsh and Cassel nodded in agreement.

"When I go on vacation, I will change my mobile phone number, and I will contact you when the time comes, if it is someone else, you will tell him, I will go on vacation, I don't know if I live or die, and the good luck is uncertain!" After finishing speaking, Xiao Yu himself laughed.

…………

…………

Sure enough, Xiao Yu's guess was not wrong.

The Shaolin abbot posted on the post-80s Shaolin abbot station to acknowledge the incident, and at the same time wished Bruce success in Birmingham.

On the day he took over as the new Birmingham manager, Bruce made a phone call to Xiao Yu.

In addition to taking charge of the new Manchester United for the past six months, he has also been concerned about the situation at Birmingham, and he knows the shortcomings of the current team, the lack of a striker who can control the penalty area, a good left wing-back, and he also wants a central defender.

As for the addition of these three positions, Bruce's transfer proposal to Birmingham City is that he wants to bring in new Manchester United players Kic, Knovic and Abidal, all three of whom have performed very well under him.

In advance, Bruce also talked to Kicic and Knovick respectively, the former did not make a clear statement, and the latter found Xiao Yu the next day, hoping to leave, and Xiao Yu agreed.

But who knows, when Bruce called Xiao Yu, the other side of the phone was prompting, I'm sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off!

After dialing three times in a row, and getting the same reply all three times, Bruce couldn't help but be dumbfounded, could it be that this was Xiao Yu's means to deal with his poaching?

At the same time, Scarlett of the Manchester City Evening News was the first to disclose the news that Novick wanted to transfer, although this is only a transfer incident in the national league, which is too inconspicuous compared to the transfer rumours of David Beckham, as well as the news that Anelka left Real Madrid and Chelsea valued Hasselbaink.

But no matter how inconspicuous it is, it will attract some caring people, won't it?

On the third day of the news disclosure, Brighton in League C and Preston North End in League Two both called to ask how much the Polish player was worth, but Walsh, who was at the Newton Heath training base, strictly followed Xiao Yu's instructions and offered them a high price of £1.5 million.

Brighton and Preston are clearly not stupid enough to believe that a 23-year-old national league player is worth £1.5 million and that he's just a left wing-back.

However, the new Manchester United obviously did not bite the price to death, but continued to release news through the media, today it is a certain team that also has a crush on Novik, tomorrow which League One team has a crush on the Poles, and the day after tomorrow even the Premier League team has appeared.

The media in England are unintentionally the most fond of hype because it increases the sales of their newspapers, so they are happy with it.

Although the influence of Novick and Beckham and others is very different, he still has some influence among the new Manchester United fans, so the media has also reported it accordingly.

It seems like a farce, but after the new Manchester United, Birmingham obviously can't sit still.

When Bruce couldn't get through to Xiao Yu's phone, he called the club's office directly, found Walsh, and offered a transfer fee of 300,000 pounds on behalf of Birmingham, because he knew that the new Manchester United had only spent 90,000 pounds to get Novik before.

However, Walsh told Bruce in an almost joking tone that Brighton had made an offer of £500,000 for the new Manchester United yesterday, and although the new United had a deep relationship with Bruce, it was undoubtedly not a benefit.

However, Walsh also said that since Xiao Yu went on vacation, he did not dare to rashly agree to Brighton's offer.

After Bruce hung up the phone, he almost lost his lungs, he didn't know that this was Xiao Yu's drama of sitting on the ground, but he knew very well that Kovik's strength was indeed very strong, especially as a left-footed general, his long-range shot on the left side was a great enrichment of the team's tactics, and he was also very balanced in other aspects.

Sometimes, Bruce didn't know where Xiao Yu had dug up such an unknown baby.

In fact, there is another wide player in the new Manchester United that Bruce is very valued, that is Hleb, the Belarusian youngster is very strong, but once he is brought in, it will inevitably waste valuable special talent clauses for him, but this year Birmingham already have a candidate, so they can only give up Hleb.

There was no agreement on Knovic's side, and Bruce moved to other places, hoping to find a suitable player, but after looking for a few days, he almost searched for all the left-footed players in England, and he refused to come to others, and he couldn't look down on anyone who was willing to come, so in the end he had to return to the new Manchester United.

At this time, the offers of Brighton and Preston North End are said to have been raised to £700,000, but the new Manchester United have not relented.

Seeing this situation, Bruce had to shake his head helplessly and sigh, Xiao Yu's trick was really unexpected, the players introduced by 90,000 pounds were 8 times more in a year, and it seemed that this could not satisfy him.

Bruce had to admit that he did underestimate Xiao Yu.

"Okay, Andy, you don't go around in circles for me, tell me Xiao Yu's phone number directly, I'll talk to him, I want to get Knovic!" Bruce called the new Manchester United office again and found Walsh.

Walsh smiled and gave him a list of phone numbers.

Bruce dialed directly, and the other side quickly picked up, and could vaguely hear the laughter, the wind, and the sound of the waves around him, he felt a pang of anger in his heart, he was so anxious that he was half dead, he actually ran to the beach for a vacation.

"Okay, Xiao Yu, I admit defeat, I don't want to entangle with you anymore, I pay 850,000 pounds, I want Novik to transfer to Birmingham, and another 1 million pounds to buy Kic, how about it?" Bruce said straight to the point.

Xiao Yu laughed, "I can let him transfer Novik, 850,000 pounds, but Kic, I'm sorry, just yesterday, I have reached a deal with Chelsea, and the player himself has agreed to the deal, you are late, Steve!" ”

After hearing this, Bruce on the other side of the phone was so angry that he almost threw away the phone in his hand, he knew very well that this was Xiao Yu's revenge, revenge for the player he had seduced him in private.

But what could he do about it?

The friend was going to keep doing it, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and nodded and agreed to the deal.
