Manchester entered July under the erosion of a heavy rain.

Gao Han secretly arrived at Manchester Airport, took the reception car directly from the apron, and left quietly.

The whole process is as secret as if it is a thief.

It was not until he left the area of ​​Manchester Airport that Paul Futre, who was sitting next to Gao Han, breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on?" Gao Han wondered.

"You don't know that now the waiting hall is full of reporters and fans, and they are waiting for you to appear. When you emerge, you don't even have the chance to turn around and escape. You will definitely be surrounded by them." Paul Futley said after the disaster.

Gao Han knew the fanaticism of England fans, but it caused a new problem.

His itinerary was kept confidential. Except for himself, he knew that he had taken this flight of only three people.

His wife Lin Xia currently lives in the Radisson Blu Edward Hotel in Manchester, which is the most luxurious top hotel in Manchester. Manchester City has long booked the hotel's luxury presidential suite for Gao Han, which costs nearly 1,000 pounds in one night.

Another one is the agent Jorge Mendes, who called Gao Han in Milan last night and is still in Italy.

The remaining one is Paul Futre in front of him. Gao Han notified him of his flight last night and asked him to arrange someone to pick him up.

"How did they know I'm on this flight?" Gao Han deliberately stared at Paul Futrey with malicious eyes.

The Portuguese general manager spread his hands and almost cried with grievance. "I swear, after receiving your call, I never told anyone except Mubarak, except...he."

Paul Futrey pointed his hand at the driver driving in front.

The driver was immediately startled, his hands shook, and the steering wheel almost lost control, "Mr. Futerey, you told me only on the way, and I have been with you all the time. How could it be that I reported to the media reporter?"

"I didn't say you." Paul Futrey comforted the driver, turned around and looked at Gao Han with a smile, "Yes, look, it's definitely not the secret I leaked. Besides, you don't know how powerful the British media is. I know you're coming sooner or later and find out about your flight information. Is it difficult?"

When Gao Han heard this, it was really not difficult.

The reason why British media reporters are difficult to deal with is that they are omnipresent and can almost find out the information they want, just one flight information, in a way that you completely unexpectedly.

"So, don't play with them anymore, they are professional." Paul Futrey felt much more relieved when he saw Gao Han's depressed look, and laughed and made fun of him.

"What about the hotel?" Gao Han asked with concern.

There are Lin Xia and Xiao Gaoshen living there, and there is absolutely no way to lose, not even one in ten thousand.

"Don't worry, I've communicated with the hotel. There is no problem with their security. Radisson Blu Edward Hotel has received countless domestic and foreign political experts, and has rich experience. The hotel is very close to Chinatown, which makes it convenient for you to go out."

Gao Han was a little relieved, but he still reminded Paul Fottery again.

Before, Lin Xia called Gao Han when he was looking for a house in Aldley Edge. Gao Han explained that nothing else mattered, but the surrounding security must be good and the security of the villa must be upgraded.

After having children, he also attaches great importance to these aspects.

"By the way, you said before, Chelsea is going to poach Daniel Sturridge, what's going on?"

Daniel Sturridge, who is about to be twenty, is a local youth training player in Manchester City. He made 16 appearances last season, contributed four goals and three assists. He is the best young player in Manchester City, but he has also attracted the attention of many other Premier League teams, including Chelsea.

But this matter is troublesome. Sturridge's contract expires this summer, which means that he can leave as a free transfer, and Manchester City can only get a compensation for youth training at most.

Because according to regulations, Sturridge is under 24 years old and cannot transfer freely in accordance with the Boseman Act.

"The club means that depending on your thoughts, if you want to keep him, we will do our best to sue Chelsea, and it is best for you to come forward and keep Sturridge. I believe he will not refuse."

Paul Fottery believes that no young player in this world can refuse to be retained by Gao Han.

"Of course, if you are not interested, then we plan to fight Chelsea, and we can't let the players leave the team."

It has nothing to do with feelings, but no one wants to suffer any damage to their interests for no reason. It is no matter how much it is to earn one or two million pounds.

Since Manchester City was acquired by former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin, Blue Moon's youth training has produced almost no results. Among the young people who can gain a foothold in the first team, striker Sturridge is one, and there is also a treasure in the midfield, Michael Johnson. These two youth training players are highly valued by Gao Han.

"I will call Sturridge." Gao Han expressed his opinion.

After hearing this, Paul Futre also understood Gao Han's meaning, and Sturridge was in his plan.

According to Gao Han's sharp eyes, Sturridge's potential is as high as 175, with a very fast speed and a fine footwork. He is also a local youth training for Manchester City. It's a pity that such a player will not stay and use it for himself.

"In addition, this is my preliminary list of players. The first team in the new season, I plan to streamline the lineup to twenty-five people. There are too many people now, and many players do not need to stay in the first team."

Paul Futre was a little surprised to hear it.

You know, Manchester City's first team and the promoted youth training young players have 37 people.

Moreover, according to the club's plan, there will definitely be a large number of recruits this summer, especially a few superstars. The club will have to clean up at least a dozen people this summer, or even twenty people.

This is simply a bloody purge.

However, this is not surprising at all, because Gao Han has his own coaching ideas, and the standards for inspecting players are based on the Premier League championship level. Manchester City in the past were only ranked in the middle, and the requirements were much lower than Gao Han.

After Paul Futre took over the roster from Gao Han, he found a long list of players, and many young players were sent back to the second team, and players including Bellamy, Bottinov, Wright Phillips, goalkeepers Jiwen, and De Jong were all well-known in the Premier League and Europe, and were all listed for sale.

But there were also several players left by Gao Han, and some of them surprised Paul Fotterre.

For example, young goalkeeper Joe Hart, Croatian defender Korluca, two full-backs Zabaleta and Bridge, Irish midfielder Stephen Ireland, Brazilian midfielder Errano, wing player Petrov, and Brazilian striker Joe who loaned Everton.

Especially, Paul Futley originally thought Gao Han would clean him, but he didn't expect it to be used.

The player was recommended by the famous agent Horabchin from Russia to Manchester City last summer. The then head coach Mark Hughes admired him very much and spent nearly 20 million euros to dig him to Manchester City. As a result, he was given nine opportunities to play within half a year, scored a goal, and loaned to Everton during the winter break.

On the contrary, at Everton, if he played twelve times and scored five goals, he performed well, and Moyes had always wanted to continue on loan.

Now it seems that Gao Han has to use it himself.

…………

After returning to the city from Manchester Airport, Gao Han and Paul Footree headed straight to the city stadium where the club's headquarters are located.

The driver drove into the internal parking lot, and Paul Footrey led Gao Han directly to the meeting room on the second floor of the office.

At this time, a number of core senior executives, including Chairman Mubarak, had been waiting for a long time.

"Welcome to Manchester City, Mr. Gao Han." Mubarak stood up excitedly when he saw Gao Han and greeted him.

The heads of other departments also stood up to greet each other, and Gao Han, who was not good at socializing, was a little flattered and couldn't help but thank him, especially when he saw Rudolph Borrelli, he hugged him with a laugh.

Gao Han and he worked as colleagues in Barcelona for a while, but there was no intersection at all. It was not until Gao Han made a name for himself in Madrid that he met Rudolph Borelli at a coaching party, but unexpectedly became a colleague at Manchester City.

As the assistant coach of the first team, Brian Kidd was not allowed to attend such a high-standard management meeting, but Gao Han was new to him and was unfamiliar with many things, so Paul Futre and Mubarak made an exception to invite him to attend.

At Gao Han's request, Manchester City will not hold any welcome ceremony for him, and will not even hold a press conference to sign a contract, but the joining of many stars, including Kaka, will have a grand debut ceremony.

Paul Futrey is already preparing for this.

"Okay, first of all, I am here for Manchester City. I am very grateful to Mr. Gao Han for being here to coach."

Club Chairman Mubarak is the convener of this meeting, and this is the first senior meeting of the new season and the first time Gao Han has participated as a head coach. All departments attach great importance to it.

"Mr. Mansour is also very happy with Mr. Gao Han's arrival. He heard that we were going to have a meeting this morning, so he specially turned down several important meetings and events, hoping to discuss and study the development of Manchester City in the new season with us in a video way."

As he said that, Mubarak immediately contacted Mansour, who was far away in Abu Dhabi, the Middle East, through his computer, and presented him on the big screen in the conference room, so that everyone could clearly see the boss behind the club.

"Hello, I'm very happy to see you on such an occasion, Mr. Gao Han." Mansour smiled and greeted Gao Han.

Everyone could see that among the people present, Gao Han was the one he valued the most.

The annual salary after tax is 50 million pounds, which is the highest sky-high price ever in professional football, and even those superstars can't get it.

"So too, Mr. Mansour, I still haven't had the chance to thank you for your gift in person." Gao Han smiled.

"You're welcome." Mansour was obviously in a very good mood.

"I have heard Carduon tell you about Italy. Fortunately, with you coming forward in time, we can successfully convince Kaka to join Cristiano Ronaldo."

"You're welcome, Mr. Mansour."

"Paul, we must seize the time to transfer negotiations. I know that Mr. Gao Han has always attached great importance to pre-season preparations. You must reach an agreement with Inter Milan as soon as possible."

Paul Futrey nodded, "Okay, I know, Mr. Mansour."

In the video, Mansour smiled with satisfaction. He was able to invite two superstars, Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo, to join. This is not only the most important transfer this summer, but also will bring huge influence to Manchester City, and the brand improvement will reach an amazing height.

"Mr. Gao Han, there is something I want to talk to you."
