George Li opened his eyes and looked out the window.

Through the gauze curtains, you can still feel the rare sunshine outside.

very nice!

No games, no training, no tactical meetings.

Just like teachers and students, they have a summer vacation.

Of course, it would be better if the Premier League could have a winter break, and George Lee could still have a winter break.

He turned over and continued to lie down in a more comfortable position.

It would be great if I could sleep until I wake up naturally every day, and then go back to sleep alone.

It would be even more perfect if Helen could be by my side.

After Leeds United's end-of-game celebration, George Lee took his children and two of Helen's family to Denmark for vacation.

Also accompanying him was Schmeichel, who was returning home from vacation.

In Denmark, Peter Schmeichel, the current head coach of Lyngby Football Club, warmly entertained the group and took them to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Denmark.

Helen and the others also lingered on the beautiful scenery of Jutland and did not want to return home. They wanted to take advantage of this holiday to visit the whole of Denmark.

It's just that George Li can't stay with them all the time. He needs to return to China to carry out the team's transfer and recruitment work.

Although several business deals with Leeds United have been negotiated before the end of the season, the team's recruitment work cannot stop.

Not only Leeds United, but other Premier League teams are also making reinforcements.

After seeing Leeds United win the championship, the established teams began to recruit players one after another in order not to fall behind next season, with the intention of regaining the Premier League title.

The first to take action was this time the league runner-up, Manchester United.

Ferguson didn't know if he was stimulated by something, but he officially announced three transfers on May 31.

25 million euros were spent to buy Ronaldinho's younger brother, Portuguese winger Nani, from Sporting Lisbon; 21 million euros were spent to buy Brazilian midfielder, golden boy Anderson, from Porto.

Just when everyone was amazed at the speed of Manchester United's actions, Manchester United officially announced another deal a few hours later. 17 million pounds, introduced Hagen Reeves from Bayern. With Bayern having no results this season and missing out on the Champions League next season, Bayern's top brass, who have repeatedly blocked Hargreaves' transfer, finally removed the roadblocks.

In just one day, Manchester United spent 71 million euros.

This is not over yet. It is said that Ferguson is still chasing Argentine striker Carlos Tevez, who played well at West Ham United last season.

After losing to Leeds United in the league and AC Milan in the Champions League, Manchester United is bound to strengthen its lineup next season and regain revenge.

Now that the apprentices are like this, how can the master not work hard?

Also thinking about revenge is Liverpool.

A few days after Leeds United finished the Europa League final, Liverpool met again in the Champions League final at AC Milan. This time AC Milan did not give Liverpool a chance to repeat the Istanbul night.

Inzaghi's two goals in the 45th and 82nd minutes helped AC Milan get revenge in front of 72,000 spectators at the Olympus Stadium in Athens.

Get back the Big Ears Cup that was taken away by Liverpool two years ago.

Unable to swallow this breath, Benitez is determined to strengthen his frontcourt in the summer.

After nearly a year of stalemate, Spanish striker Torres, whom Benitez longed for, finally completed the transfer from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool.

Torres will go to Liverpool for a medical examination today. If there are no problems, this transfer of about 22 million pounds is expected to be the biggest transfer move in the Premier League this summer.

According to rumors, Benitez is also eyeing the Ajax winger, Babel, known as the "new Kluivert", and the Brazilian under-20 national youth team captain Lucas Ray of the Brazilian Gremio club. Via.

Liverpool, which has been ranked fourth in the league for two consecutive seasons, may seek some breakthroughs in the league this season.

If we are talking about being fourth in the league and still playing in the Champions League, Arsenal, which has been fifth in the league for two consecutive seasons, is really in trouble.

The news that the core of the team, King Henry of Highbury and Emirates Stadium, wants to leave Arsenal is already flying all over the sky. The closest thing to the French forward is this season's La Liga runner-up Barcelona.

After rival Real Madrid led Robin van Persie in the second half of the season, Real Madrid's momentum became unstoppable, and finally won the league championship at the end of the league with a win-lose relationship.

Rijkaard's determination to bring in a frontcourt player is also well known.

If Henry leaves, it will also mean that the rebuilding storm that Arsenal may usher in this summer has officially begun. After Henry leaves, there may be other core players who may leave. This summer for London's veteran giants is destined to not be the same. calm.

George Li turned over again, and he found that he probably couldn't sleep anymore after returning to the cage.

After the season ended, he always slept well. He would no longer suddenly dream about an opponent's head coach in the middle of his sleep, nor would he have to watch game videos to fall asleep due to pressure.

George Li has been sleeping like this for half a month.

After stretching, George Li decided to get up and go to the club to continue discussing the team's transfer work with the transfer department and scouting department.

While he was washing, the phone suddenly rang.

"José Mourinho" is the Chelsea manager's name displayed on the phone.

"This is George Lee...Gululu...vomit." He took the phone and rinsed his mouth.

"Do you have to buy Robben from me?"

Mourinho got straight to the point and asked Lee directly. Now since Real Madrid withdrew from the competition for the Dutch winger, Leeds United has become Robben's only next destination.

But Mourinho doesn't want to sell Robben, let alone to a competitor of his own team.

"If I don't buy it, where will you get the money to buy Malouda and Alves?"

"I can talk to my boss." Mourinho was still stubborn.

Now the discord between the Portuguese head coach and his Russian boss is known to the whole of London, the whole of Britain and the whole of Europe.

Since buying Shevchenko, Mourinho has been dissatisfied with his boss's involvement in the management of the football team. And this season Chelsea lost the league and Champions League consecutively, which also gave Abramovich the idea of ​​​​moving Mourinho.

Chelsea has made almost no transfer moves this summer, which is completely different from Chelsea who turned the transfer market upside down in the previous two seasons.

"I think you should sell Robben to me honestly, and then use the money to buy the players you want." George Li had already changed his clothes and was ready to go out.

"I..." Mourinho wanted to say something, but he really couldn't say anything.

The team's top management really wants to sell Robben away because the Dutchman's injury rate is too high. Moreover, the price offered by Leeds United has exceeded Robben's worth. Compared with the price of introducing Robben, the price of 24 million pounds has doubled.

Chelsea's top management also wants to change people's original impression of Chelsea and make a profitable business for everyone to see.

If a player wants to leave and the senior management agrees, the only obstacle is the head coach. Mourinho is really reluctant to let Robben go. Even if the Dutchman appears on the bench for most of this season, his breakthrough is still very crucial for Chelsea.

Mourinho really doesn't want to see Robben wearing the white jersey of Leeds United next season, using his lightning speed to wreak havoc on Chelsea's defense.

So he was thinking about whether he could take the initiative to ask Li George to see how high Li George's expectations for Robben were, and whether he could persuade him to cancel the transfer.

"You can't rely on free transfers to introduce players this summer. You introduced 4 players. 3 of them were free and 1 cost 1 pound. You wouldn't think that Malouda and Alves also You can buy it for £1."

George Li is very familiar with Chelsea's moves in the transfer market and reported all of Chelsea's recent transfer results. Ben Haim, Sidwell and Pizarro are all free transfers. The transfer fee for acquiring Brazilian center back Alex from Eindhoven was a symbolic US$1.

In 2004, it was Chelsea who spent 5 million pounds to buy Alex from Santos. However, Alex, who had little experience in the national team at the time, failed to pass the labor certificate, so Chelsea transferred him to its partner Etienne. For Hoven, there was a provision in the contract at the time that when Chelsea needed it, Alex would return to Chelsea for $1.

"Okay...I agree to Robben's transfer." Mourinho finally agreed reluctantly.

"How about I recommend two players from my team to you, and you can get a discount." Seeing that the last obstacle to Robben's transfer was gone, George Lee joked with Mourinho.

"No, I might... forget it, you can tell your transfer department to send a fax."

After Mourinho finished speaking, he hung up the phone. George Li could hear the Portuguese's loneliness on the phone, and he no longer had the arrogance and confidence he had when he first came to the Premier League.
