Chapter 463: Purchasing a private jet, terrifying dominance on the field

Chapter 463: Purchasing a private jet, terrifying dominance on the field

The first UEFA Nations League in the 2018-2019 season came to an end at the Dragon Stadium in Porto, Portugal. Portugal, which was at home, defeated the Netherlands 2:0 with Martin's pass and shot and won the first UEFA Nations League championship.

Considering that the event is after all a game with an official title by UEFA to replace the international warm-up match, the gold content is destined not to be too high, but the Portuguese fans at the Dragon Stadium were particularly excited, releasing all their energy and bursting into loud cheers.

The on-site director once again locked the camera on Martin and pushed it to a close-up of his face.

Central 5 commentator He Wei said loudly: "Portugal with Martin is really invincible. It's like the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves without any effort. If it weren't for the obvious retention in the final, it would be really difficult for the Dutch team to win against the Dragons with the current overall strength." We only lost two goals against Portugal at the stadium.”

"It seems that the Dutch team still has to thank Van Dijk and De Ligt."

Before guest commentator Xu Yang finished speaking, he saw Martin taking the initiative to find the Dutch double central defenders who were full of depression.

The two of them worked very hard, and even tried their best, but the result was still bad.

Looking at the club's captain Martin, Van Dijk and De Ligt both looked bitter.

Such a powerful opponent is simply driving people crazy.

The few good news is that they still play for the same club. If they are rivals at the club level, then... they will definitely be together for a lifetime.

The young De Ligt couldn't help but ask: "Captain, will we still be teammates next season?"

"you are leaving?"

Martin blurted out.

"No, I wanted to ask you if you would leave."

De Ligt quickly corrected his meaning.

"We agreed to break Real Madrid's fifth consecutive Champions League run, how could we possibly leave?"

Martin put his arm around De Ligt's shoulders and said, then looked at Van Dijk: "Will you leave?"

"will not."

Van Dijk shook his head repeatedly, thinking at the same time: When you are in the club, only fools leave, wouldn't it be nice to win the championship lying down? It would be nice if it was Dutch...

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that he had 1/16 Dragon Nation blood, and Martin was once a Dragon Nation nationality...

Pity.

He couldn't help but shook his head.

The UEFA Nations League does not have a high level of gold content, but there are still awards ceremonies that should be held.

Martin came from Porto's youth training, and the UEFA Nations League final was at Porto's home court, so the voices cheering for him were very high.

It's just that Porto's sporting director Antero Enrique has always been a little confused.

Seeing Martin, the most valuable player in world football, joining Wolfsburg with a second transfer fee of 100 million euros + 25%, he had the idea of ​​​​slapping himself twice.

It is precisely because of this that he was secretly laughed at by the entire Portuguese sports director...

After all, staying in the first team for one season is a sky-high price.

Look at Wolfsburg, it’s like grandma’s house.

The most enthusiastic moment in the atmosphere at the Dragon Stadium was when captain Cristiano Ronaldo raised the UEFA Nations League championship trophy high after receiving it from UEFA President Ceferin.

The entire stadium became a red ocean of joy, with huge cheers coming one after another.

Next year is the European Cup, which means they can win their fourth continental championship in a row!
The 2016 European Cup champion in France, the 2018 World Cup champion, the 2019 UEFA Nations League champion in Portugal and the 2020 European Cup.

It is even possible to win the World Cup in Qatar in 2022!

Thinking of this possibility, Portuguese fans became even more crazy.

The eyes they looked at Martin became particularly hot.

"Portugal!"

"He is the champion!!"

At the same time, PP sports commentator Zhan Jun’s iconic high-pitched voice blurted out at this moment.

After Ronaldo raised the trophy that symbolized the UEFA Nations League championship, he handed it to Martin, allowing him to enjoy the cheers of the fans alone.

※※※※※

The UEFA Nations League has come to an end. Due to the influence and gold content of this event, the official has not arranged a championship parade. Players such as Martin will directly enter a pleasant and relaxing vacation.

Just as the Gulfstream G5850, which was ordered at a cost of 650 million euros last year, was in place, he took his adoptive mother Clara Anna and his girlfriend Savannah Blade to travel around the world.

As the most recognized person in today's world football, Martin has his own traffic, which also means that there is no privacy at all.

The handover day of this private jet, which cost more than 50 million euros, attracted great attention from the media.

Not long after, news about Martin’s purchase of a Gulfstream G650 spread across social platforms in a very short period of time: [Shocked! Football king Martin spent nearly 650 million euros to buy a Gulfstream G! 】

The major leagues in Europe have come to an end. This period of time is quite boring for football lovers, so when you see gossip about stars, you are 100% focused. Especially the news related to Martin, it will cause even more sensation. .

"That's what I'm saying! Only this person deserves to be the first person in the green field!"

“Fact sheet: Accommodates up to 19 passengers in a bright, flexible and award-winning interior, complemented by the signature Gulfstream Cabin Experience cutting-edge technology, including 100% fresh air, low cabin pressure altitude, 16 large Panoramic oval portholes and high-speed internet connectivity options with the fastest speeds in the industry…”

"The Polo King likes to buy a Gulfstream G650. I want to know how long it will take to buy it without eating or drinking."

"Upstairs, don't even think about it. If you don't eat or go hungry for seven days, you'll have to burp."

"I want to give birth to your baby, could you please sit down for a while?"

"This is a comment area, not a trolling area, thank you..."

……

The top three most searched searches on major social platforms are once again occupied by Martin.

Cristiano Ronaldo also noticed that Martin liked to bring his private jet, a Gulfstream G650, and immediately called him to congratulate him.

After chatting for a while, he asked Martin if he had any travel plans recently. If so, we would go on vacation together. He covered the other expenses. It meant that the Mini at home wanted to experience the ride of the Gulfstream G650.

"Your private jet feels really nice, but it's just too big."

Cristiano Ronaldo, who brought his family with him, sat on the luxurious soft sofa and sighed.

"It's a bit big, but it's comfortable."

Martin shrugged and said with a half-smile: "Your G200 is too small and not very comfortable."

"Yes."

Mini Luo also added: "Dad, when will you buy a private jet like Uncle Ma?"

"You brat, I only bought my plane more than three years ago and you're tired of it?"

Ronaldo said angrily.

"The main reason is that Uncle Ma's plane is very atmospheric and comfortable to ride on."

Mini Luo said with a smile.

Ronaldo: "..."

※※※※※

Happy time often passes very quickly, and the more than half-month vacation passed by in a blink of an eye. Martin took the time to return to Long Country to look at his industry and the progress of the aid work in the backward mountainous areas in the northwest.

Then he returned to London to prepare for the 2019-2020 season.

Finally, I have to mention the investment in football schools. Due to the strong resistance from all aspects and the outrageous asking price, the football school that planned to invest 200 million dragon coins was forced to run aground.

In this regard, Martin also felt particularly powerless.

He knows that some things are difficult to change. As long as you work hard, it's okay.

The entire Arsenal team began training in mid-July in preparation for the International Champions Cup to be held in Asia at the end of the month.

It is worth mentioning that Mahrez, the team's attacker, submitted a transfer application at the end of the season and joined league rival Manchester City in the summer window for 1.3 million euros + 2000 million euros.

This... also created a new record in the Premier League transfer market.

Some media and Arsenal fans have criticized this deal, believing that Mahrez should not be sold to a team in the same league, especially since Manchester City is still a competitor.

But more Arsenal fans believe that the youth academy has produced a little demon Saka with both speed and foot skills.

Besides, there is also Gnabry who is extremely cost-effective.

There is nothing wrong with selling Mahrez at a high price. The key is that Martin is still there, so there is no need to worry about one thing or another.

Arsenal, with Martin, will always be the most favorable contender for the Premier League title.

In addition to the introduction of Mahrez, Manchester City also spent 70 million euros to introduce Spanish international Rodri from Atletico Madrid and 65 million euros to introduce Cancelo from Juventus.

It can be said that it has become the largest signing team in the Premier League.

The Premier League has set a new transfer fee record, and the La Liga transfer market is also quite active.

Barcelona paid a liquidated penalty of 1.2 million euros to introduce Atletico Madrid star Griezmann. After receiving the transfer fee, Atletico Madrid immediately bought the Portuguese talented player Felix from the European black shop Benfica, also paying the liquidated damages. .

Spending 1.26 million euros.

In addition to this, Frenkie de Jong was also purchased from Ajax Supermarket.

7500 million euros.

Real Madrid saw that Barcelona and Atletico Madrid had spent more than 1.2 million euros to buy players to increase their strength, so naturally they were not far behind.

1 million euros to buy star Hazard from Chelsea.

Since Ronaldo stayed in the team, Hazard's jersey in Real Madrid was No. 17.

Multiple transfer fees exceeding 100 million euros have appeared, and the European transfer market has become more popular.

Manchester United spent 8700 million euros to introduce Maguire from Leicester City, million euros to introduce Wan-Bissaka from Crystal Palace, and million euros to sell 'Little Warcraft' Lukaku to Inter Milan.

Chelsea, who sold Hazard, spent 50 million euros to introduce Real Madrid player Kovacic, and then sold Morata to Atletico Madrid, which was in desperate need of offensive players, for 65 million euros.

Atletico Madrid is also making a lot of changes in the lineup this summer.

Sold Lucas Hernandez to Bayern Munich for 80 million euros.

It has to be said that this summer's transfer window is particularly lively.

European hegemon Arsenal, after selling Mahrez, sold 19-year-old central defender De Ligt for a total worth of 90 million euros + 15 million euros. The latter also set the highest transfer fee for a central defender.

Arsenal, which sold potential new stars, also introduced two players at the central defender position.

10 million euros to bring in David Luiz, who has a contract year from Chelsea, who has good cooperation, 30 million euros to bring in Saliba from Saint-Etienne, 6.7 million euros for Martinelli, and 28 million euros for Thiel. Ni.

If many players are introduced, naturally some players will leave.

Iwobi, who had been on loan before, joined Everton for 40 million euros, and Ospina joined Naples for 3.5 million euros.

Cech retired, and players such as Koscielny, Lichtsteiner, and Welbeck moved on free transfers.

What's interesting is that Tottenham, who had nothing to lose last summer, have a luxury in this summer window.

Sixty million euros were spent to bring in Ndombele from Lyon, and eleven million euros were spent to bring in Clark from Leeds United.

Last season's Champions League runner-up Liverpool's performance in the transfer market is no different from last year's Tottenham. Van den Berg paid 1.9 million euros, and the free introduction of midfielder Elliott, who set the record for the youngest debut in the Premier League, and goalkeeper Adri install.

……

The European transfer market is still hot, and Martin, who returned to Colney training base to participate in pre-season training, has done his job well as captain.

While welcoming the new players, he also actively cooperated with the coaching staff to prepare for the new season.

After more than a week of restorative training, the players who have returned from vacation have returned to 60 to 70% of their peak form. However, it will take time to adjust to find the competitive state during the season.

The International Champions Cup is a very good stage.

Arsenal has three games in the Asian division, against Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Bayern.

The host city is also very particular. Among them, there are two games in the Dragon Kingdom Division, namely against Inter Milan in Jinling and in Shanghai against Real Madrid. The International Champions Cup against Bayern was held in Singapore.

With Martin's golden sign, the competition venues in the three divisions were full.

And it also brings very considerable GDP income to the hosting city.

This... is the huge influence brought by the number one football player in the world.

Martin, who grew up to be the number one player in world football, was a huge hit among fans of the Dragon Kingdom and received huge popularity in Jinling and Magic City.

Martin showed excellent competitive condition in the fanatical atmosphere. Although other Arsenal players were in poor condition, he single-handedly led the semi-main team, substitutes and youth team players to kill the game in the half.

Of course, this is also related to the poor condition of other participating opponents and the lack of ability of young players.

But this does not prevent Martin from showing his super technical ability to the world.

After playing three International Champions Cup games, I returned home for the Emirates Cup and won the game against Lyon 2:1.

A few days later, I went to Barcelona and played a Gamper Cup game.

Barcelona's new players Griezmann and Frenkie de Jong all played, but Messi was absent due to injury.

There is some discrepancy between the two sides' dominance in Europe. Arsenal, led by Martin, defeated Barcelona at the Camp Nou and ended the warm-up match before the start of the new season with five consecutive victories.

Then came the Community Shield with Manchester City and the UEFA Super Cup with Chelsea.

Mahrez, who moved to Manchester City, made his debut at the new Wembley Stadium, and the Athenian fans in the audience still gave him warm applause.

In the past two seasons, Mahrez has played an obvious role and is a very important assistant to captain Martin.

Excellent dribbling ability effectively involves the opponent's defensive energy, often winning Martin excellent free kick positions.

In the new season, Arteta decided to train Saka, a local young player focused on training in the youth academy. He made his debut in the Community Shield before the start of the 2019-2020 Premier League season.

The performance was outstanding with Martin's deliberate feeding.

Excellent speed + superb foot skills.

In addition to his lack of physical strength and lack of game experience, he is still able to defeat Mahrez in many aspects.

The most important thing is that Saka is a young player trained in his own youth training. His performance last season was also remarkable, and his potential is clearly visible.

As long as you cultivate it a little, it will definitely make a difference.

Manchester City, coached by Guardiola, obviously wants to change its past decline, but Arsenal, led by Martin, has mastered the situation so brilliantly that there is no hope at all.

Mahrez had been teammates with Martin for two seasons. It can be said that he knew the shortcomings and tactical shortcomings of his former teammate. However, he found that there was no way to take advantage of it. Instead, his own shortcomings were exploited to the fullest...

At the end of the game, the scoreboard displayed on the big screen was 3:1.

Arsenal in front, Manchester City in back.

In other words, Arsenal has won the Community Shield for five consecutive years and is in urgent need of setting a new record in the British arena.

Four days later, at the Vodafone Arena in Istanbul, Turkey, Champions League champion Arsenal and Europa League champion Chelsea launched a head-to-head European king of kings battle against Maiman.

Manchester City, whose overall strength has greatly increased, cannot defeat Arsenal, and Chelsea, which has lost Hazard, is even less able to threaten Arsenal's dominance in Europe.

3:0
Arsenal easily defeated Chelsea, won the European Super Cup for four consecutive years, and created a legendary record of their own.
