“Ah!!!”
Just as Long Fei said.
A scream from Lan Yong was indeed heard through the microphone.
Lan Yong’s forehead.
Was once again accurately hit by Long Fei’s long pass!
This was truly a brace.
Jim watched all of this in shock.
The position where Long Fei had been standing.
Was now about a hundred meters from the podium!
At such a distance, he was still able to accurately hit the target!?
What kind of concept was this?
The total length of a standard international football field is only 105 meters!
During regular matches.
Common long pass distances are usually around fifty to sixty meters.
Even at this distance.
The level of the players.
Can lead to varying degrees of accuracy in long passes.
But Long Fei’s long pass was nearly a hundred meters!
And it still accurately hit the target!
This long pass accuracy was simply too terrifying!
And there was another thing that surprised him even more.
He had just casually thrown the football to Long Fei!
In other words.
Long Fei had kicked this long pass.
Without any stopping or adjusting the ball.
It was a one-touch pass!
A one-touch pass with such an incredibly accurate long distance!
What kind of talent was this!?
Jim’s heart was filled with excitement.
The first thing that came to mind was the iconic figure of the Red Devils’ 92 Golden Generation.
David Beckham!
Beckham’s precise long passes had supplied countless cannonballs for the powerful Manchester United team back then!
No! His long pass ability should be even stronger than Beckham’s!
Jim suddenly realized that he had discovered a genius player!
A genius player who was unparalleled!
“Damn it! It’s you again, Long Fei! You really have a death wish!”
“Security! Where are the security guards! Grab this kid! Don’t let him escape! I won’t rest until I break his legs!”
Lan Yong’s furious roar echoed through the stadium through the microphone.
Soon, Long Fei was surrounded by a group of people.
Lan Yong, surrounded by a group of people.
Ran from the podium to where Long Fei was.
Because his forehead had been hit by Long Fei’s foot twice.
It was already quite swollen.
He looked like a pig’s head.
“Long Fei! You’re not getting away with this today!”
Lan Yong was fuming.
But seeing Long Fei, who was tall and strong.
He remembered the slap in the dressing room.
For a moment, he didn’t dare get close to him.
“Excuse me, this player is leaving with me today, you have no right to restrict his freedom of movement.”
Jim stood in front of Long Fei and said to Lan Yong.
“Who are you?” Lan Yong glared at Jim, “What foreigner are you?”
“I’m Jim, the chief scout for Manchester United.”
Jim showed Lan Yong and the others his identification card.
“You’re just a little scout, why are you putting on airs, get out of the way!”
Lan Yong had just finished speaking when a staff member next to him quietly reminded him.
“Lan Leader, he’s Jim Lawler, not an ordinary scout, he’s the chief scout of the Premier League powerhouse Manchester United.”
“He’s the one who bailed on the dinner meeting that Chairman Chen invited guests to two days ago.”
“It was him?”
Lan Yong’s expression changed, and his heart sank.
A few days ago, Football Association chairman Chen Xu Yuan had a dinner meeting.
He had originally invited a high-profile guest, a high-ranking executive of the Premier League powerhouse Manchester United.
Unexpectedly, this person had bailed on the meeting, claiming he wasn’t interested, and stood up Chairman Chen.
In recent years, Manchester United and the Dragon Nation Football Association had some cooperation in youth training.
But the youth trainees from Dragon Nation were too weak.
They didn’t even have the level to make the Manchester United trial list.
Dragon Nation football was getting worse every year.
The Football Association was about to be condemned.
The dinner meeting was also to build a good relationship with Manchester United’s executives.
To see if they could make an exception, even for show, and let a few Dragon Nation players go for a trial.
At least it would save face for the Football Association.
Unexpectedly, it seemed that they had sensed the purpose of the Football Association’s dinner meeting.
The Manchester United executives didn’t show up.
Lan Yong coughed, his tone softening a little as he said to Jim.
“Mr. Jim, how did you get involved with this kid Long Fei?”
“This kid hit someone in the dressing room, and you saw it just now, this kid directly hit me with the ball, he’s no good!”
Jim said calmly, “As a scout, I have my own focus, I only see a talented player with excellent skills.”
“As for other things, they have nothing to do with me, and I don’t want to know.”
Lan Yong was speechless for a moment.
Seeing that the soft approach wasn’t working.
He said in a tough tone, “Long Fei can’t leave! He’s insubordinate! I have to deal with him first!”
Jim snorted, “If I heard correctly, you said through the microphone just now that Long Fei has been disqualified from the U18 Provincial Games, right?”
“Since there’s no need to compete anymore, he can of course leave on his own.”
“Also, this is a U18 player competition, as far as I know, Long Fei hasn’t signed a professional contract with any domestic club.”
“Neither the tournament nor the club has the right to restrict him.”
Lan Yong knew he was at fault and was speechless for a moment.
“No, Mr. Jim, why are you protecting this kid?” Lan Yong said.
“I’m taking Long Fei with me today, and we’ll fly to Britain tomorrow to handle the signing process.”
Jim said.
“What? You’re signing Long Fei? Signing with Manchester United?!”
Lan Yong said incredulously.
Jim’s words.
Surprised everyone present.
Long Fei was indeed a young player who had performed very well in the U18 Provincial Games.
But the level he had shown was at most good enough to sign with a domestic club.
Signing with Manchester United?
Signing with a Premier League powerhouse like that was simply a pipe dream!
“Long Fei, let’s go.”
Jim glanced at Lan Yong and said to Long Fei.
Long Fei nodded and, under the watchful eyes of everyone, left the stadium with Jim.
Given Jim’s identity.
Lan Yong didn’t dare to go head-to-head with him.
He never imagined.
That this kid Long Fei actually had the support of a Manchester United executive.
No wonder he dared to humiliate himself so boldly!
Lan Yong watched Long Fei’s back and viciously kicked a patch of grass.
He naturally couldn’t swallow this.
Looking at some of the media around him.
These were all considered the mouthpiece of the Football Association.
People he could control at will.
Lan Yong sneered, a plan forming in his mind.
The next day.
In the morning, Long Fei got up early.
As agreed yesterday.
He was going to fly to Manchester with Jim that afternoon.
To begin his European journey.
But when Long Fei opened his phone.
A bunch of explosive news stories were on the front page of many media outlets.
“U18 Tournament Sees a New Thug! All-Out Brawl in the Dressing Room!”
“U18 Provincial Games Scandal! Talented Player is Actually a Violent Lunatic!?”
“Is This Kind of Player the Future? Dragon Nation Football Won’t Have a Chance to Rise!”
“Skills Unimportant, Brawls on the Field! This Kind of Player Should Be Banned!”
Looking at these news articles, Long Fei knew that this was definitely Lan Yong’s doing.
If it were just about him hitting people, Long Fei would take responsibility for his actions.
He had no regrets about beating up Lan Yong.
He would definitely admit to it.
But after reading the content of these news articles.
Long Fei was simply amused.
In these news articles.
He was portrayed as a mindless violent lunatic who had beaten up a Football Association leader without reason.
In the end, he used bribes to a Manchester United scout.
The Manchester United scout helped him get out of trouble.
And he was about to go to Europe to avoid the fallout.
But Lan Yong’s request for players to throw the game.
Was not mentioned at all!
The comments from fans under these news stories were also filled with anger.
“Dragon Nation football really has no hope! You can see that from these players!”
“Haha, hitting people, he has all that energy but you never see him use it on the field!”
“There’s never any good news related to Dragon Nation football!”
“This kind of player should be banned! Too bad!”
“A talented player? What kind of talent Dragon Nation players have, everyone knows!”
“It’s obvious that a trash player has been born!”
Long Fei sighed helplessly, “People are too easily swayed.”
But Long Fei understood completely.
Dragon Nation’s men’s football team was truly terrible!
The Football Association was even worse!
When you see news related to Dragon Nation’s men’s football team, there’s never any good news.
It was understandable that fans would subconsciously be disappointed.
But the truth of the matter.
He would definitely make it public!
This kind of dark loss, Long Fei would never take it!
The current domestic public opinion was very unfavorable towards him.
Long Fei knew this.
What he needed to do right now was to get a foothold in the European league.
Only when he showed his strength.
Would the media pay attention to what he had to say!
...
After a long flight of more than ten hours.
The plane landed in Manchester, Britain.
Under Jim’s guidance.
Long Fei arrived at Manchester United’s training base.
It was already January 27th, and there were only four days left until the winter transfer window closed!
