121. Visiting

The 2010 World Cup is a huge stage, attracting the attention of fans from all over the world, but the routine transfer drama in the football world every summer will also unfold as scheduled.

In Belgium, in the small town outside Ghent, 19-year-old Kevin De Bruyne and his agent Patrick Decoste are thinking about their lives. They received an invitation from England to invite him to play football.

The team is Crystal Palace.

De Coster has not been De Bruyne's agent for a particularly long time. He only signed with De Bruyne about a year ago. He is not well-known and his influence is limited to Belgium, but he has not

He thought that a few days ago, the famous Zahavi actually called him and told him that the London team Crystal Palace actually wanted to introduce De Bruyne.

De Coster was surprised and surprised by this, because he knew very well that his players had just established themselves in Genk this season and were slightly famous, but they were definitely not as well known as they had spread to the UK. De Coster was very doubtful.

The other party is a liar.

But then Zahavi called him again and told him that he would visit him personally, and Decoste knew that this should be true.

Sitting with De Bruyne and De Coster were De Bruyne's parents, and De Coster was introducing them to the situation at Crystal Palace.

"They look really good! They played in the English Championship last season and will be promoted to the Premier League this season. In addition, they also won the FA Cup last season and can directly participate in the European League! This is great for Kevin

It’s really good for Kevin. Although Crystal Palace is a little smaller and not well-known, they are a Premier League team and can participate in the European League. These two events are of great training for Kevin!”

"What's interesting is their head coach Daniel Collins. This guy seems to be only 26 years old!" De Coster couldn't help laughing, and handed De Bruyne's parents a copy of Belgium's own domestic newspaper.

There was a report about Wen Sheng leading the team to win the FA Cup, and there were photos of Wen Sheng and Crystal Palace players celebrating.

De Bruyne's parents were also shocked. At the age of 26, he led the team to the FA Cup and also led the team to promotion. This is really unbelievable.

"I don't believe it either, but it is true! This Daniel Collins Van, this guy is a native of Croydon. Previously, Crystal Palace was led by Neil Warnock. Later, Crystal Palace was put under government trusteeship due to debt problems. Warnock

Ke left, and I heard that Wen took the initiative to apply for the position of head coach. When he took over the team, Crystal Palace was not far from the relegation zone of the English Championship, only one or two points away, but in such a passive situation, he actually led the team back to life.

, completed the upgrade task." When Decoste told this story, he kept saying in his mind that this is really a fucking genius.

"He's such a fucking genius!" De Coster didn't say, but De Bruyne's father couldn't help but swear. This story did sound quite magical, but then he realized that he paid too little attention to the occasion.

It would be impolite to be rude in this situation.

"sorry!"

"Yes, Mr. De Bruyne, you are right, he is a genius, and now he has a certain reputation in Europe! And he likes to promote young people very much. Last season he relied on a group of young people at Crystal Palace

One man conquers the world, I think if Kevin comes over, he will definitely be put to good use by Wen!"

"Going to Crystal Palace now allows me to adapt to the world's top leagues. Growing there can attract the attention of wealthy clubs. In the future, I will have the opportunity to play for Liverpool or other wealthy clubs!" De Coster began to talk about his long-term plans.

De Bruyne's mother was born in Belgium but grew up in England. De Bruyne's favorite team is Liverpool and his favorite star is Michael Owen.

When he was a child, his room was filled with posters of Liverpool and Owen. It must be said that playing football in England was very attractive to De Bruyne.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, a black Volkswagen parked in front of De Bruyne's house.

De Coster and De Bruyne's parents and De Bruyne himself greeted him at the door.

De Coster was able to confirm at a glance that the short old man who got off the car was indeed Zahavi. Owen is De Bruyne's idol, so Zahavi can also be regarded as his idol.

Surprisingly, at the back, the person coming around from the passenger car made the De Bruyne family's eyes brighten. They had just seen Wen Sheng's photo in the newspaper, how could they not recognize him at this moment?

Wen Sheng.

After the recording of the first episode of the program, Wen Sheng ran away. Firstly, he was really fed up with the negative effects of the program. Secondly, he really needed to deal with his essential work, such as persuading players.

Wen Sheng called Morgan and Boateng several times to invite them to join. Morgan seemed very decisive. Wen Sheng's invitation was really pie-in-the-sky for him. He didn't expect that his defeated opponent could still get Wen Sheng.

Sheng’s invitation, he agreed without hesitation upon the first call.

As for Boateng, it takes a lot more words. There are many clubs inviting him, and he needs to weigh it. However, Wen Sheng's repeated sincerity still moved him. Crystal Palace also has its own advantages. Crystal Palace can participate in the European League.

Crystal Palace's first signing has been completed and officially announced. The little-known young Dutch center back Van Dijk transferred from Willem II to join Crystal Palace. This deal must be thanked to Zahavi.

Zahavi acted very quickly and quickly found Van Dijk. At this time, because Van Dijk was not successful at Willem II, he was preparing to move to another club this summer. According to the original trajectory, he left Willem this summer.

II went to Groningen and made a name for himself there.

Had Zahavi been a little later, there might not have been any drama at Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace appeared, and Van Dijk was not stupid, so he naturally chose Crystal Palace.

The transfer fee is not expensive. Willem II was given a training fee of 300,000 pounds, and Zahavi received an agency fee of 500,000 pounds from Wensheng, which is quite shameful.

Wen Sheng only made a phone call to Van Dijk's invitation, but De Bruyne is different. This kid has an agent and is already somewhat famous in Belgium. Zahavi suggested to Wen Sheng if you really take it seriously.

Wen Sheng accepted the suggestion and went to talk about it himself, so this scene happened.

Surprise! Definitely a surprise!

De Bruyne and the others would never have expected that Wen Sheng would come to Belgium in person to invite him. This represents seriousness. How could the fledgling De Bruyne not be moved?!

After the enthusiastic meeting, Wen Sheng and Zahavi were invited to sit down in the living room.

"Honestly, this is my first time coming to Belgium, and it's also my first time inviting players! But I think Kevin is the kind of player who is worth a trip, no! I should say it's worth a few trips!"

Entering the main topic, Wen Sheng blew De Bruyne up high.

De Bruyne was very shy, but he had a smile on his face. Wen Sheng knew at a glance that this kid still liked hearing this kind of words.

Of course, not only De Bruyne, but also his parents and De Coster are very fond of Wen Sheng.

"You are about to turn 19 now. It's getting late. You can go to a bigger stage to show yourself! Messi and Ronaldo already have experience in Europe's top leagues when they are 18 years old. You will be with them in the future.

The same big shot is still in Belgium, which will influence you to become a great player!"

Wen Sheng continued to brag and praise.

After a few compliments, everyone interacted more, and slowly began to turn to the main topic.

"I got your information from the club's scouts and watched your videos. You have a balanced left and right foot, good footwork, and excellent passing skills. I like your playing characteristics very much. I need a frontcourt in my team.

An excellent organizer and passer, and you completely fit my imagination, so I wrote your name first on the list for Pini!" Wen Sheng began to get in-depth with De Bruyne.
Chapter completed!
