"Stop, Aba, put down your gun!" Mellot, who stopped over, looked at it and was immediately frightened.

"Mom, it's Mr. Merlot!" As soon as the young man next to the Ghanaian woman saw Merlot, he immediately took his mother's hand.

The Ghanaian woman named Abba was still hesitating, but Merlot had already stopped and stood in front of Xiao Yu and the others.

"Aba, this is the owner of the club from England, he has come to visit you, put down the gun!" Melo said anxiously.

This kind of self-made clay gun often goes off the rails, if you accidentally click Xiao Yu, the gold owner, then everything is really over, 250,000 pounds not to mention, I'm afraid the club will be in some trouble.

As soon as he heard Merlot say this, Abba immediately put down the gun in his hand, and then complained: "Since it is a visit, then you should call someone first, I don't know I thought it was a thief who wanted to come to my house to steal something!" ”

Xiao Yu and Old De Rossi glanced at each other, and they both felt a burst of indignation, are they like thieves?

Old De Rossi is wearing a standard suit, so there is no need to say it, although Xiao Yu is wearing sportswear, he will not look like a thief, right?

However, when they saw the handpiece in Aba's hand, they immediately stuffed everything back into their stomachs, after all, they did not know if this dangerous Ghanaian woman would suddenly come and go off the gun.

"Come in!" Abba opened the door of the house and beckoned Xiao Yu and the others to enter.

There is not much decoration in this simple house, and even the place where guests are seated is a bench made of wooden planks, and then covered with cloth, and they sit hard.

After beckoning Xiao Yu and the others to sit down, Abba went over to boil water to greet the guests.

"Michael, hasn't your mom found a job yet?" Melo called over to Essien with concern and asked.

"Well, I went to work for a few days before, but I couldn't find anything to do recently." Essien said precociously.

This is the first time Xiao Yu has taken a closer look at Essie, and found that he is actually not handsome, and can even be said to be a little ugly, but out of appreciation for his football talent, Xiao Yu always feels that he is particularly pleasing to the eye.

"I'm sorry, we don't have anything to entertain here, only plain water!" Aba, who came over with a few cups of boiling water on a plate, said apologetically.

"By the way, Merlot, you say they're from England?" Abba noticed that Xiao Yu had been staring at Essin, as if he had sensed something.

'Yes, Abba, the owner of the new Manchester United club in England, has his eye on Michael and Sully Muntari and wants to bring them to England to play for his team.

Abba was a little surprised at first, but soon calmed down, and seemed to have accepted the fact that the eyes that looked at his son revealed a strong reluctance.

"I knew this day was coming, it's okay, Michael, you go, get over there, do a good job, you know?" Abba patted Essien on the shoulder sadly.

The latter nodded incessantly, with tears in his eyes, but he endured it.

"Earn the money and take your mother and siblings to England!" Merlot comforted him.

"When should I go, sir?" Essian looked at Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu thought for a while, "I heard that you are going to participate in the Ghana U17 Youth Team training camp, then you will go after participating in this training camp, by the way, Aba, what do you do?" ”

Abba shook his head with a wry smile, "I used to run a bread wholesale store, but now the economy is getting worse and worse, the business is not good, and the rent is expensive, so I can't continue to operate and have to close, and then I work here and there, and I don't have any formal work." ”

Melo listened and shook his head, "Abba has a total of five children, and his father left home when Esin was young, and then he relied on Abba to raise five children to grow up Chengren, and life is not easy. ”

Xiao Yu's family situation in his previous life was not good, so he had deep sympathy for families like Essien and wanted to help them.

"Would you like to work in Manchester?" Xiao Yu asked.

Abba was stunned, "Do you have a job over there?" ”

"We don't have a club, but we can help you contact the factories in the surrounding area, or the shops that want to hire people, and our club will come forward to help you find a job, and when you are connected, you can move to Manchester, so that you can also live with Michael and take care of him!"

Xiao Yu was obviously touched by the words of the old De Rossi before, so he thought about giving Essien a good living environment as much as possible, and their family is indeed in trouble now.

"Really? Thank you so much, sir! Essien was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up, and bowed to Xiao Yu.

"It's okay, Michael, we are a football club, we have an obligation to help our players deal with what they are worried about, so let's do it, Aba, your expertise and so on will be written into a resume, Melo will fax me to Manchester, and then our club staff will help you find a few suitable jobs, and then you slowly pick the favorite, how about it?" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Although the new Manchester United has only been established for a year, it is very influential in the Newton Heath area, and Xiao Yu does not dare to guarantee a good job, but it seems that it is at least better and more comfortable than the job that Aba can find here in Ghana.

"As for where to live, I'll get people in touch, and you can move in as soon as you arrive."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao Yu!" Abba heard the sour nose and looked very moved.

Xiao Yu smiled and shook his head, "It's just a gesture!" ”

After finalizing Aba's work, there was no obstacle for Essien to transfer to the new Manchester United, and even when Xiao Yu wanted to say goodbye, Aba's family chased him out and kept him.

After coming out of Essin's house, he walked through two alleys and came to Montari's house.

Since Essien and Muntari both play in freelance clubs and live close to each other, the two families have a good relationship.

When Montari's parents heard that their son was favored by the English club, they were very happy, and when they heard that the Essien family was preparing to move to Manchester, they immediately had no worries about their son going to England.

As night fell, Melo drove, bumpy on the way back to the freelance club.

There are no street lights on the roads here, and the only way to identify the road is by the lighting of the vehicles themselves, the faint moonlight, and the faint light projected by the surrounding residents' homes.

In such an environment, even a veteran like Melo has to be cautious when driving.

"Frankly speaking, Mr. Xiao Yu, what you did surprised me!" Merlot was still staring ahead.

"Why?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

"I've studied in England and I know that the football clubs there have never cared about the players' family lives, but you're different, you care about the lives of the players."

"Don't you think that's good?" Xiao Yu asked again.

'No, no, no, I also think a club should give more of a human touch to its signings, you know, that's hard to see in a professional club.

"What about Ghana?"

Merlot smiled bitterly, "Heartless! ”

Yes, even its own operation has become a problem, what club still has the kind of family that cares about the players?

"You don't just want to come to Ghana and find a football club to work with, right? Mr. Xiao Yu! Melo asked suddenly.

"How?" Xiao Yu is becoming more and more interested in Merlot.

"Intuition!"

Xiao Yu laughed, and the old De Rossi on the side didn't know Xiao Yu's plan, so he was also curious about their conversation.

"You've heard of Ajax, right?"

Both nodded, and those who like football have not heard of Ajax is as worthy of contempt as the Chinese do not know the Great Wall.

"They bought two clubs in Cape Town, South Africa, and formed an Ajax club in Cape Town, which is actually part of their global plan to acquire football talent, even though Ajax only owns a 50 per cent stake in the club."

Later, in the main squad of Ajax, Pinard, who was as famous as Sneijder, Van der Vaart, Ibrahimovic and others, was selected by Ajax in this club and brought back to the Netherlands.

"You want to emulate Ajax, too?"

'Of course, we have to have our own hematopoietic capacity and this model is only part of the equation.

The reason why Arsenal were able to spread their scouting network across the globe was because they had their football schools or clubs in many parts of the world, and Chelsea was no different.

"So, when the time comes, you're going to buy freelancers?" Melo asked again.

"Why not?" Xiao Yu asked rhetorically, "After the acquisition of freelancers, I will inject funds to run this club into the best football club in Africa, attract football talents from all over Africa, and then it will become a super giant of African football and provide a steady stream of excellent stars for European teams." ”

If it is really realized, then the freelancer will inevitably become a springboard for African players to land in the European League, and use it to obtain a high transfer fee to ensure the healthy operation of the club.

"Of course, Melo, it's not the time yet, whether it's African football or the new Manchester United, there's still a long way to go if you want to get there, but I can see that you're not an ordinary fan, right?"

Merlot listened to Xiao Yu's words, and immediately laughed, but did not answer.

However, there are some things that everyone knows by heart.

Returning to the freelance club, the first negotiation between Magbu and Kassel was over, and the two parties reached an intention to cooperate, after all, both parties are quite sincere about this cooperation.

So, after negotiations the next morning, the two sides officially signed a contract for cooperation and the transfer of Essien and others, and Essien and Muntari also signed contracts with the new Manchester United.

This contract is about the same salary as the youth team for the European team, but it has already doubled the salary of both men.
