Chapter 825: With this, my football career is complete!
Xia Xing sent Solskjaer out of the gate and watched him drive away.
Even the car seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.
Xia Xing smiled slightly.
This young coach is interesting.
The reason why he came to me and even took the initiative to tell me about the shortcomings of Ronaldo joining the team was because he wanted to see my opinion.
This is obvious.
After all, now that Cristiano Ronaldo is here, my attention will definitely decrease.
If I'm unhappy because of this, then Manchester United's overall competitive strength will definitely decline.
This is inevitable.
So Solskjaer must do work ahead of time.
But he thought too much.
The relationship between me and Cristiano Ronaldo is not particularly good, not that of a good friend.
After all, the two of them don't have a deep personal relationship.
But both of their managers are Mendes, and with this relationship, the two still have some connections.
And these are secondary. The deepest bond between the two is still on the court.
The sympathy between the heroes is the foundation of the true friendship between the two.
"On a competitive level, I only have one request: Xiao must stay!"
Solskjaer's words are definitely not groundless, they must be true.
And this is also Ronaldo's style.
At almost the same time the next day, Xia Xing once again welcomed two visitors.
"Xia! Long time no see!"
"Jorge, long time no see."
"How have you been lately? Didn't you go on vacation?"
"I just came back from a week on the beach in Spain. I have a lot of things to deal with in the company, and I also have to stay in shape."
"He is worthy of being a Golden Globe-level superstar. He is amazing."
After greeting Mendes, Xia Xing looked to the side.
Cristiano Ronaldo.
Standing in front of Xia Xing, Ronaldo looked very relaxed today.
The place where Xia Xing saw Ronaldo the most was on the court.
There will also be some award ceremonies and business activities.
But there are very few interactions in life.
Xia Xing found it quite interesting to see Cristiano Ronaldo in casual clothes today.
"Hello, Ronaldo."
"Hello, xia."
"Jorge didn't say anything in advance. I didn't expect you to come."
"Are you saying you didn't expect me to come to your house or to Manchester United?"
"All."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
After letting Mendes and Ronaldo into the room, Xia Xing simply prepared some Chinese snacks.
These are all brought by friends from China.
Mendes was full of praise for the taste of Su's pastries.
But Ronaldo didn't move. He just took a sip of black tea.
Looking at Ronaldo, Xia Xing shrugged: "Sorry, I didn't prepare chicken breast and salad for you here."
Ronaldo smiled: "I just took it as a compliment."
"Of course it's a compliment. When I get to your age, if I can still be in your competitive state, I'll be satisfied." "You will definitely be stronger than me in the future, I'm sure of it."
Mendes bit into the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and glanced sideways at Ronaldo.
This was the first time he heard Ronaldo say someone was better than him.
Ronaldo's pride is the strongest Mendes has ever seen.
But in front of Xia Xing, Ronaldo did not hesitate to praise him.
The three of them were sitting on the sofa, having nothing serious to do, just chatting casually.
"Jorge, you've been in Manchester recently, but you haven't come to see me either. It's not very interesting."
"What's more, I suggest you transfer. If you don't leave, what will I do with you?"
"That's what I said."
"That's the truth. During the busy summer transfer period, I have to spend more time dealing with clients who need to transfer."
"Like Cristiano Ronaldo?"
"Of course."
"Yes, there are not many Manchester United stars who are chased by Manchester City."
Cristiano Ronaldo put down his tea cup: "This is not a kind word, I can hear it."
Xia Xing: "Well, yes, if I was chased by Manchester City, I would definitely reject it directly without even thinking about it. I would definitely not let Jorge negotiate the terms."
Ronaldo shook his head slightly. He wanted to say something, but he still didn't speak.
Mendes on the side was afraid that Ronaldo would be embarrassed and hurriedly added: "Actually, it's just a chat. Let's look at Ronaldo's value in the transfer market and evaluate it from many aspects. Even if he doesn't join Manchester United, he won't go to Manchester City in the end. ”
Xia Xing waited for Ronaldo sharply: "If Manchester United doesn't take action and the conditions offered by Manchester City are very good, are you sure you won't go to Manchester City?"
Ronaldo responded decisively: "I'm not sure. If it's suitable, I might join Manchester City."
Mendes slapped his thigh: "Forget it, I won't speak for you anymore, you willful guy."
"Maybe as time goes by, I will be more willful in the future."
"Why bother."
"At my age, nothing is more important than respect."
"makes sense."
Xia Xing leaned back: "Man, I really appreciate what you just said. You are outspoken about your idea of joining Manchester City. I think this is your true temperament. Then I also want to ask, what will happen when you return to Manchester United? what do you want?"
Seeing Xia Xing's serious eyes, Ronaldo's expression changed from peaceful to serious.
"Before you asked me, Jorge also asked me this question seriously.
"Now, I once again tell you my thoughts openly and honestly.
"I came back to Manchester United with only one purpose - to win more wins and titles!
"This sentence is a bit false, I understand, so I will quantify it.
"First, I hope to have a core offensive position at Manchester United and win a few more championships at the end of my career.
"Especially the Champions League, I missed the Champions League so much during my years at Juventus.
“Second, I hope to maintain my competitive form and reach the peak of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
“To ensure this, you must play in the top league and team and have the best teammates.
“All that said, that’s what I’m all about.
"There's one thing you may not know,
“When Manchester United approached me with the invitation, the club offered me a generous package.
"But that's not enough. I told the management - 'On a competitive level, I only have one request: Xiao must stay!'
"I want you at Manchester United!
"Jorge once asked me, who is stronger between me at my peak and you now?
"I think it's me.
“When I was at my peak, I could do anything.
"But now, I am 36 years old and you are 26 years old.
“You are definitely better than me in this current state, I admit it.
"In today's international football world, I think you are the best in the world!
"So as long as you are at Manchester United, Manchester United has hope of revival!
“With you behind me, I’m sure we can create greater miracles together!
"At the end of my career, coming back to Old Trafford,
"Helping the team win the league championship and the Champions League again,
“Become the top scorer and still maintain the intimidation of the world’s number one striker!
“At the national team level, we are going all out to hit the World Cup.
"Help my motherland destroy the city and win the World Cup!
"In this way, my football career will be complete!" (End of this chapter)
