When choosing Campbell's next club, Lister did not consider Liverpool at all. Although Liverpool performed well in the hands of Houllier, they have not been able to break the dominance of Manchester United and Arsenal in the Premier League. In the past few seasons, the Premier League has performed best.
The good ones are Manchester United and Arsenal. In terms of chances of winning the championship, Manchester United and Arsenal are the highest. What Campbell wants is a club that can provide him with championship opportunities, and only Manchester United and Arsenal are the most suitable.
Under the current circumstances, there is only one club that has the ability to take Campbell away from Arsenal, and that is the Premier League hegemon Manchester United. That's why List met with Ferguson. At this time, List can clearly realize that information is a resource. If
If Lister didn’t know the content of Stam’s autobiography because of his own memory, how could Lister communicate with Ferguson?
Ferguson has not yet made a statement, but List has already taken measures. The first thing List did was to send a message to the London Post in London. Although List does not have many connections in English football, he is not as good as Michael.
Williams was a local snake, but he also had some friends in the English media. Lister deliberately sent news to the London Post.
Soon the "London Post" published an explosive news. "Tottenham captain turns to Arsenal!"
Campbell did not renew his contract. After the free transfer, many giants have contacted Campbell. Even Arsenal has had rumors, but at this time, the ones most contacted by Campbell are Inter Milan, Barcelona, and in the Premier League, Liverpool. Even if there is a relationship with Arsenal
Some scandals are just ignored by everyone.
After all, Arsenal and Tottenham have been sworn enemies for centuries, and the North London Derby is famous throughout European football. The hatred between the two families can be said to have lasted for a hundred years. Therefore, no one really believes that Campbell will risk the world's disapproval.
Transfer to Arsenal. So the news of transfer to Arsenal is usually just heard as a joke.
But now the "London Post" is confident that Campbell has signed a contract with Arsenal. Even the contents of the contract have been revealed, with a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds. David Dunn and Jerome Anderson personally contacted Campbell's agent.
Andre met and talked about it. Regardless of whether it was true or not, this matter exploded. Campbell did not agree to renew the contract, which has made many Tottenham fans dissatisfied. The fans' thoughts are very simple.
Just like they all think that Campbell was trained by Tottenham, and now Campbell has become a world-class central defender. You don't want to repay Tottenham, but now you want a free transfer. You can even leave a little transfer fee to Tottenham.
But he wants a free transfer for his own financial interests. How could Tottenham fans not be angry.
Of course, if you stand from Campbell's point of view, you will feel that Tottenham is too low-level. With Campbell's current strength and reputation, Tottenham is not worthy of him at all. He hopes to win the championship and get more economic benefits. After all,
A player's career is very short. It is understandable that he chooses to leave.
However, the positions of both parties are different. The world never revolves around a certain person or a certain group. Asking fans to understand Campbell, or asking Campbell to give up his own interests to repay Tottenham, is wishful thinking. Therefore, before Tottenham
Fans are already very dissatisfied with Campbell.
Now that the "Daily Mail" has broken such a big news, it can be said that Tottenham fans can't bear it anymore. During the game, Tottenham fans have publicly criticized Campbell, and even started to pull a Tottenham fan at the beginning of the game.
A big banner: "A move to Arsenal will kill Sol."
Of course, such a banner was quickly put away by the security at the scene, but it also showed the anger of Tottenham fans. Even Campbell soon received death threats from radical Tottenham fans.
After the "Daily Mail" broke the big news, "Daily Mirror" and "The Sun" soon followed up and interviewed him. Because once Campbell transfers to Arsenal, it will cause no less sensation in British football.
Last summer, Figo's defection to Real Madrid caused such a sensation that many Tottenham fans came to demonstrate at Campbell's home.
Recently, Campbell can only enter and exit the club under the protection of a security company. Otherwise, no one can guarantee what those angry fans will do.
…………
"Shit. Some bastard spread this news. If I find out, I will kill him."
In Campbell's house, Andre was very angry. This news not only seriously affected Campbell's life, but also affected the current negotiation process. If Andre hadn't owned Campbell, he would have had the most influence among British football agents.
Not high. But after having Campbell, he has successfully become one of the top agents in England.
It is precisely because of his delaying policy that Campbell currently has such an initiative. He is already preparing to give Campbell the best contract in European football, and after analyzing several clubs in England, he finally chose Arsenal
. He has talked with David Dunn and Jerome Anderson several times. The talks between the two parties are still very good. There has been substantial development.
But that was Arsenal, and now Campbell is still at Tottenham. If the news of moving to Arsenal breaks out, Campbell will definitely die without a burial place. How will he face the club, teammates, and fans. So Andre has always been there
Negotiate with other clubs. Negotiate with Barcelona today, negotiate with Inter Milan tomorrow, and negotiate with Liverpool the day after tomorrow. So the daily newspaper news is which club Campbell is closer to, but no one thinks it is Arsenal. Andrew has always been very proud, very proud of himself.
means.
Now that such news breaks out, it is very detrimental to Campbell. Either a quick clarification, or it can only be acquiescence. If it is acquiescence, Campbell will be very sad for the remaining months at Tottenham. And to clarify, how to clarify. Andrew himself knows his own affairs.
, he really had a lot of negotiations with Arsenal, how to clarify this kind of thing.
"What now?"
Campbell is also very helpless. Now he sometimes feels that his personal safety is not guaranteed. Every day he can see fans looking at him with angry eyes. Even a tough guy like Campbell feels a little scared.
"Thor, don't hold back at all. Haven't we already thought of this situation before?"
Andrew thought about it and decided to make a decision. Anyway, they all thought at the beginning that Campbell would become the biggest traitor in Tottenham's history as long as he transferred to Arsenal. They had been mentally prepared at that time, but now they just broke out early.
"Don't back down? Andre, it's completely different to be cursed by Tottenham fans after I arrived at Arsenal and to be angry at Tottenham fans. If you go out and take a look, my house is full of fans. There are still three months until the end of the season.
time. If the fans know the truth, they will smash our house."
Campbell has also been in a very unhappy mood recently. Hundreds of fans surround his home every day. They either burn his jersey or beat gongs and drums constantly. He can't even rest well when he looks at the death threats.
The letter made Campbell feel creepy.
"Who could it be?"
Andrew thought about Campbell's current situation and sat slumped on the chair. Then he kept guessing who it was? Andrew's meetings with David Dunn and Jerome Anderson were all extremely secretive. Now only
The signing bonus and salary have not yet been fully negotiated. Andrew the Lion asked for a signing bonus of 8 million pounds. But Arsenal was only willing to pay a signing bonus of 4 million pounds.
Could it be that Arsenal deliberately spread the news to put pressure on themselves? Andrew quickly shook his head, it shouldn't be the case. Because doing so can easily backfire, and Arsenal shouldn't be that stupid.
So who is it? After thinking for a while, Andrew really couldn't think of anyone who had such a motive. Could it be that it was just written by a reporter? But rather than finding out who was playing tricks, Andrew knew that solving the current matter was the most important thing.
It was important. But he really had no choice.
Campbell is unwilling to go abroad. Among the three giants in England, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool, Liverpool is not strong enough. Although Andrew seems to be continuing negotiations with Liverpool, Liverpool has long been abandoned by Andrew and Campbell. Now the media still says every day that Campbell has
It may have happened to Liverpool, but most of it was false news deliberately released by Andrew.
Speaking of Campbell and Andrew, it would be best to move to Manchester United. After all, Manchester United has the strength, performance, and is the dominant player in the Premier League. Unfortunately, Manchester United's attitude is a bit ambiguous, and it seems that they are not as sincere as Arsenal. That's why Andrew
I will choose Arsenal. And Arsenal is definitely the best among all the clubs now.
"Didi didi——"
Just when both Andrew and Campbell were frowning, Andrew's cell phone rang. Andrew picked up the phone and saw that it was not a phone number he recognized. Andrew cursed in his heart, wondering which reporter knew his phone number.
He wanted to hang up the phone, but after thinking about it, he picked up the phone.
"Hello, I'm Peter Kenyon from Manchester United."
Andrew was stunned. Kenyon of Manchester United was the man who had just replaced Edwards as the CEO of Manchester United. Andrew only became a well-known agent in British football because of Campbell, and he did not have strong connections in British football.
.So I have not met Kenyon or communicated with him.
But at this time, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. Because Andrew thought of another possibility, a possibility that could calm the storm. He even believed in his heart that this matter was done by Manchester United. But he did not think about it.
After all, as long as Manchester United is willing to come up with the same conditions as Arsenal, then they will reconsider Campbell's transfer issue.
After a few simple words with Kenyon, Andrew hung up the phone. Then he smiled at Campbell and said, "Maybe we really have a way." (To be continued.)
