All Football Talents Are Mine Chapter 372

372. Return (complete)

Summer 2014.

With Hoyoung Woo’s contract expiring at Manchester City just one year away, several prestigious clubs have begun to move quickly.

[Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich said, “We have prepared 300 million pounds for Woo Ho-young.]

└Wow, that’s crazy. Isn’t this price almost enough to acquire a mid- to upper-tier club?

└Last year, the value of Juventus was a little over 400 million pounds.

└That means Woo Ho-young’s economic value is enormous. How much do you earn from image rights per year? Money and trophies are rolling in just by having him, so 300 million pounds is such a big deal.

Clubs with a lot of money, like Chelsea, prepared an astronomical amount of money to recruit Hoyoung.

The same was true for Manchester United.

[〈Guardian〉 More than 400 million pounds have been set aside to rebuild the Manchester United club after Alexon Ferguson left. Club owner Malcolm Glazer said, “We will sign Woo Ho-young under conditions that no one can offer.”]

Manchester United, which has been ridiculed for its steady decline since Manager Ferguson retired, was also engaging in an aggressive media play.

A similar atmosphere was forming in Germany, as if they would not be defeated by this.

[Bayern Munich plans to offer up to 400 million pounds for Woo Ho-young…]

└Wow…. I wonder if a team with no money would be sad…

└Isn’t it too expensive? 400 million pounds is the amount you can buy Messi and Ronaldo.

└? When you think about it that way, it doesn’t seem that expensive. If it were me, I wouldn’t buy one Woo Ho-young.

└Me too.

Late July.

As the opening of the season got closer and closer, Hoyoung’s price soared through the roof.

This is because he was a proven winner, having swept all prestigious competitions such as the European Champions League, Europa League, Euro Confederations Cup, and World Cup.

It was not unreasonable for several clubs to turn on their eyes and rush in.

However, there were also teams that took a somewhat unconfident attitude.

[Liverpool “I hope our feelings are conveyed to Woo Ho-young. Even if it’s not money, we’ll do everything we can. I believe that he will definitely choose a good club among big clubs. That’s because Woo Ho-young is never a player who wants money.”]

└Woo Ho-young is not a player who wants money, but he doesn’t seem to want Liverpool.

└This is correct. What is there to gain by going?

└Europa League qualification

└LOL └Ah

, there is also Gerrard’s infinite love.

└ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Arsenal Manager Wenger: “I have a burning desire to play the most beautiful soccer in the world with Woo Ho-young. To recruit him, we could break the club’s highest spending record.”]

└This guy… he just says he wants to win the championship…

└He spins around saying he wants to win the championship trophy once before he retires.

└But even if it was the club’s highest spending record, it was only 30 million pounds.

Clubs that didn’t have a lot of money were naturally left out of the recruitment competition.

There was no way Manchester City would accept that kind of money, even if the player strongly wanted it.

However, the real recruitment competition was taking place in Spain.

[〈El Mundo Deportivo〉 Barcelona plans to offer an astronomical amount of money to recruit Joshua Wu, and has expressed strong confidence in signing him, saying they are already in close contact with him.] [〈As〉

Ho is a favorite of the royal family . It is safe to say that there is no possibility of Shua Wu transferring to Barcelona. Barcelona’s recruitment of Woo Ho-young will not happen even if he wakes up from the dead.]

[〈Sport〉 Real Madrid cannot afford to spend hundreds of millions of euros to recruit players. Although they have stabilized their finances over the past few years, they do not have the ability to secure urgent funds.]

[〈Marca〉 Signs of a revival of Real Madrid’s Middle East connection… Possibility of them leaping back to the top spot in world soccer club value in the near future↑]

[〈 Don Ballon 〉 Woo Ho-young is looking into a mansion in Barcelona to play with Messi.]

A heated battle of nerves.

Both teams engaged in bloody press play with the goal of bringing in Hoyoung.

Until then, no one could have predicted Hoyoung’s future path.

But a few days later.

As a huge issue hit the world, rumors of Hoyoung’s transfer became almost certain.

[ Florentino Perez appointed as advisor to Real Madrid.]

Early August.

Real Madrid made a huge effort to bring Perez back to the club.

There were sociopaths who were opposed to this decision, but they were of course of the position that they could turn a blind eye for the sake of Woo Ho-young’s recruitment.

Perez’s position was as an advisor to President Jorge Valdano, and he was expected to provide advice to the president in various ways.

In other words, although the position itself was not high, it was an important position that could actually influence the club.

In other words, it meant that he would run in the next presidential election.

Therefore, he had to make the recruitment of Woo Ho-young happen unconditionally.

From then on, Perez’s active courtship began.

and.

[Manchester City agrees to transfer Woo Ho-young]

Ho-young’s future plans were decided on August 12th.

The place was as everyone expected.

[Real Madrid acquires Woo Ho-young for a transfer fee of 500 million euros.]

KRW 700 billion.

For Hoyoung, he was able to leave the club with relative peace of mind because he had given Manchester City a huge gift.

A contract with Real Madrid was then signed.

The terms of the contract were even more unconventional than the contract signed at Manchester City.

[‘Woo Ho-young’s big deal with Real Madrid worth 1.3 million euros per week]

1.3 million euros.

The weekly salary of KRW 1.8 billion was an amount that could be repulsive to fans, but it didn’t matter how much Hoyoung’s weekly salary was.

If you just bring him in, you’ll be able to get a lot of value out of it.

What they thought was important was not anything else, but the real reason why Hoyoung chose Real Madrid among several clubs.

Memories, loyalty, money.

That was never the reason.

Hoyoung planned to reveal the reason directly during the joining interview.

August 15th.

Santiago Bernabeu press conference room.

When the reporter asked a question, Hoyoung let out an expectant voice.

“Santiago Bernabeu. “This is why I came back.”

A stadium I have been playing in for many years.

In other words, Hoyoung wanted to play soccer once again for a club called Real Madrid.

The club he grew up in.

The club that raised me.

Many madridistas who constantly supported him while he was growing up.

I wanted to feel those exciting and happy moments again.

That was the only reason.

And Hoyoung was soon able to feel that feeling.

““Waaaaaaaa!””

““¡Vamos!””

““Woo!””

““¡Vamos!!””

““Woooooo!!””

August 23.

Many citizens visited the Santiago Bernabeu to watch the opening match of La Liga against Córdoba CF.

The area near the stadium was full of people who warmly welcomed Hoyoung’s return.

“how is it? How do you feel about coming back?”

“Kill me?”

Ramos and Marcelo, who were watching the scene on the bus, asked as if they were proud.

Hoyoung was already feeling it.

Excitement and joy.

How long has it been since I last felt this way?

The passion of madridismo. The spirit of Juanito. White’s struggle.

Senses that I had forgotten for a while were awakening.

And then it went to the stadium and absolutely exploded.

““Madrid Madrid Madrid~””

““¡Hala Madrid!””

““Y nada más!””

““¡Hala Madrid!!””

““Wooooooooooo!!””

Explosive reaction .

The 80,000 madridistas who filled the stadium were crazy excited.

In addition, a large flag with Hoyoung’s face on it and a large uniform with the number 10 engraved on it waved and covered the stands.

Córdoba CF, who went on a trip to the Santiago Bernabeu, had no choice but to lose motivation even before the game started.

[Córdoba CF, which was promoted from the 2nd division to the 1st division this season, has been going through hard times since the first round.]

[Haha. Isn’t it better to get beaten early anyway?]

The commentators spoke in excited voices.

He seemed quite excited today.

[The return of Hoyoung Woo and Joshua Woo. What a historic moment! How long have we been waiting for this moment?]

[Real Madrid has not won the league, let alone the Champions League, since he left. But I’m sure things will change from now on. The great journey to stop Barcelona’s dominance and become the king of Europe once again begins now.]

[Yes. The moment you said that, the game started!]

Beep!

Real Madrid came out with a 4-3-3 formation.

In response to this, Cordoba CF established an extreme 5-4-1 defensive formation.

But both tactics had no meaning.

As soon as the whistle sounded, Hoyoung’s amazing play began.

[Woo, let’s go!]

[Ah, it’s amazing as expected. Isn’t this the sight that madridistas have been waiting for!]

As if to celebrate his return to his hometown, Hoyoung knocked out the opposing players one by one with a solo dribble.

There was no need for adaptability.

It’s literally soccer itself.

He quickly broke through to the second line by displaying the extreme play that can be shown with a soccer ball.

trance.

At this moment, passes and build-ups were unnecessary.

When a defender approaches, he breaks through with brilliant footwork, and when tackles come from all directions, he avoids all the blockers with overwhelming quickness and reaction speed.

The place we arrived at was in front of the door.

This happened less than 5 seconds after the game started.

Then I took a shooting stance.

There were two central defenders in the penalty box blocking the shooting angle, but that didn’t matter to Hoyoung.

All I did was shoot.

Cough!

A cannonball-like shot fired from Hoyoung’s right foot.

It bent at a bizarre angle, missed the defenders’ bodies, and was sucked straight into the goal.

Crash!

[Gooooooooo! Real Madrid hits the net in 10 seconds!]

A play that overwhelms everything.

Chairman Valdano and Advisor Perez, who were sitting in the audience, smiled in victory.
