Chapter 17
Late at night, inside the office complex in Carrington.
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal finished the information in his hand, tiredly took off his glasses and leaned back in his chair.
Davis was quite perceptive and quickly served a cup of coffee.
"Thank you." Van Gaal took a sip of coffee and looked a little better.
"Head, how did the club talk with Di Maria?"
Davis asked tentatively.
A smile appeared on Van Gaal's resolute face, "We have already negotiated with Real Madrid, the players are willing to join us, and now we are talking about his personal salary and treatment, I think there should be no surprise." "
It's going to be a great signing."
"Who knows." Van Gaal shook his head lightly and asked again: "About that Dragon Kingdom kid... Chen Huan, what do you think?
Davis was slightly stunned, and then he hesitantly spoke: "Judging from the performance of the training game, his creativity and defensive ability are outstanding. But his physical fitness, I'm afraid he can't get a foothold in the Premier League, he... Too thin.
"Yes, 185 is only 75 kilograms tall, and I plan to let him train with U18 from tomorrow."
Although Van Gaal did not say it explicitly, as his chief assistant coach, Davis understood what the other party meant.
Chen Huan has not had a chance to play in the first team at least this season.
"I will be a qualified Premier League player before the league starts!"
Chen Huan's voice sounded in Davis' mind at this moment, and Chen Huan's confident face appeared.
Davis did not hesitate and said directly: "Head, I think Chen Huan has the strength to gain a foothold in the first team, and now there is still more than a month before the start of the league, let him train with the first team."
"You think so highly of him?"
Davis nodded vigorously.
Van Gaal hesitated slightly, but he really liked Chen Huan's performance in training matches.
"Okay, let him train with the first team before the league starts!"
Early the next morning, when the members of the coaching team led the staff to arrange the training equipment, they noticed that outside the training ground of the first team, a figure was running around the training ground.
Van Gaal stopped, he raised his wrist and glanced at the time, it was seven in the morning.
Premier League players, on the other hand, usually arrive at the training base at ten o'clock in the morning to prepare for training.
Diligent people also have to see the figure at eight or nine o'clock.
At this time, the figure had already run in front of Van Gaal, and everyone could see clearly that this was the new signing Chen Huan.
"Good morning, gentlemen!"
Chen Huan waved at the coaching team when he passed by them, but his footsteps did not stop and ran straight out.
"Oh my God, he... Did he start training at seven o'clock?
Davis was taken aback.
Van Gaal narrowed his eyes at the Dragon Country kid who accelerated and ran away.
The other party's hair and training clothes were already soaked with sweat, and it was clear that the other party was not starting now.
"Maybe it's right to keep him training in the first team."
Van Gaal thought so.
At nine o'clock in the morning, several players, including Ashley Young and Wilson, showed up in the training room at the Carrington base.
"Hey, that game yesterday was beautiful."
"Haha, that Latin girl next to you is not bad, honestly did you bring him home?"
"Shh, if this were in the papers, I'd definitely settle the score with you..." The
players joked with each other as they changed into their workouts and entered the gym.
It's a habit for several of them to get a little stronger before they officially start training, which helps them stay in shape.
"Ha-ha-ha-"
Before he could open the gym door, a panting sound made the smiles on the faces of several first-team players fade.
Ashley Young frowned and said while pushing the door: "Who is so diligent?" We should be the first to arrive, right?
"Johnstone, I guess."
"No, maybe it's Rojo, this kid trains very hard."
The door was pushed open, but several players were slightly stunned.
A yellow-skinned, black-haired figure was shirtless and had just completed a jerk motion.
It was Chen Huan, who showed his skills in the training match yesterday.
"Chen? You...... Why did you come so early? Ashley Young walked into the gym and came to Chen Huan's side.
"Bang-
" The heavy barbell was thrown on the ground, Chen Huan wiped his sweat with a towel, and said with a smile: "
I live in the training base, and I will come to train in the morning if I have nothing to do." "
What?" Wilson and the other players who surrounded him were taken aback.
"Chen, don't you have a place to live in the city? Carrington's location is so out of the way that there is no nightlife at all, and the apartment is too small. William Keane said.
"No, I can't afford my salary."
"Haha, that's okay." William Keane stepped forward and put his arm around Chen Huan and said, "For the sake of you sending me a wonderful assist yesterday, you can live with me, but you have to send me more assists." The
other players laughed kindly.
Chen Huan broke free from Keane's embrace, "Thank you Keane, but I don't need it. I want to do it as soon as possible... This season, I'm going to have a first-team spot, consistent playing time and a bigger contract so I can afford to rent a villa myself. When
the surrounding players heard this, their faces all froze slightly.
Occupy a first-team spot and also have consistent playing time.
You know, only Ashley Young occupies a first-team spot and has played a total of thirteen league games last season, 13/14, including the substitute.
Wilson reached out and patted Chen Huan's shoulder, squeezing his eyebrows.
"Chen, I like you really, but people have to be realistic."
Several other players immediately laughed, but none of them maliciously.
They all felt that Chen Huan was too whimsical.
Although Chen Huan's transfer fee was 5 million dragon yuan, it was only half a million pounds sterling.
Since the start of the summer window, Manchester United have officially announced more than five transfers of more than £10 million.
"I'm definitely going to have a first-team spot, so we'll see."
Facing the smiles of his teammates, Chen Huan said very seriously.
He got up and picked up his shirt and walked in the direction of the bathroom, where his teammates were still talking.
"Dream, Chen!"
"I like you very much, Chen, and I like you even more today!"
"Hahaha, if you get five first-team appearances this season, I will lose you five hundred pounds."
Chen Huan ignored them and turned around and closed the door of the single bathroom.
Chen Huan raised his hand, and the next moment a light suddenly flashed on his hand, and then several heavy items appeared on his hand.
