"Gossip, what gossip?" Upon hearing that the Al-Nahyan family could stay in the Premier League, Bringham was overjoyed and unconsciously leaned forward to get closer to Li Shiguang.

"Hehe, let them look down at the bottom of the standings." Li Shiguang's lips curled into a mysterious smile. "I heard that Manchester City's owner... is in trouble!"

The owner of Manchester City?

Does he believe it?

Brinkham frowned and began frantically racking his brains for the information he had heard about Thaksin during this time.

“Don’t think about it, Mark.” Li Shiguang smiled and began to explain based on the information in his memory, “I also heard it from a friend in my hometown. Thaksin has no intention of returning to Thailand to attend the hearing. Given the current situation in Thailand, he has no hope of making a comeback in the short term. As long as his assets are frozen, selling Manchester City is Thaksin’s only way out!”

Holy crap!?

How could a club owner like you know about something like this?!

Brimham was incredibly surprised and began to re-examine the young man in front of him.

Li Shiguang knew what Brinkham was thinking and chuckled, "I said it's just gossip, I don't know the specifics, but the fact that this kind of thing can spread means there must be some signs... Mark, so I suggest you let the Al-Nahyan family consider acquiring Manchester City."

“Manchester City??? No way, no way, they want to acquire a prestigious club with a long history!” Brinkham shook his head repeatedly.

"No, that's not right!" Li Shiguang immediately retorted. "Manchester City was founded earlier than Leeds United and Manchester United, and it's a contemporary of Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea. How can it lack a rich history?!"

"But they want a wealthy family!"

"Didn't I say it before? As long as you have money and can buy players, who isn't a top club?"

After a conversation...

Brim felt that Li Shiguang was being unreasonable, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute him, so he could only sit on the sofa with a look of anxiety on his face.

Seeing Brinkham's state, Li Shiguang knew it was time to take drastic measures.

"Mark, do you really want the Al-Nahyan family to establish themselves in the Premier League?"

"Of course I want to!"

"That settles it then! Just focus on making recommendations, why are you hesitating?! The acquisition of the wealthy family failed, and you can't come up with any new solutions. If they really run away, you won't even have time to regret it!"

"Don't overthink it, Mark, be confident! What's with all this talk about big clubs? There are so many teams in the Premier League, Championship, and League One, which one hasn't had its glory days? Which one hasn't won a championship? Trust me, as long as you bring up the Manchester City proposal, they'll agree!"

Li Shiguang's last words completely convinced Brinkham.

The Premier League CEO's eyes lit up.

yes!

As the birthplace of modern football, which English team lacks a rich history? Over the past century, countless teams have won league and cup titles.

Isn't this their true strength?

After figuring it out.

Without further hesitation, Brinkham stood up from the sofa: "Lee, you're right. I'll go back and talk to them. If they're willing to acquire Manchester City, and Thaksin's situation is really as bad as you say, I believe the deal can be finalized very soon!"

Li Shiguang smiled knowingly and nodded gently, saying nothing more.

Having made his decision, Brim bid farewell to Li Shiguang and hurriedly walked towards the door.

But just as he reached the door, Brinham turned back to Li Shiguang and said sincerely, "Li, I've witnessed your intelligence today, and I suddenly have an idea."

"Hmm?" Li Shiguang, who came over to see Brim off, looked puzzled. "What are you thinking?"

Would you be willing to become an advisor to the English Football Association?

"consultant?"

"right!"

Li Shiguang's eyes darted around, a smile playing on his lips: "Mark, if I become an advisor, can I participate in the FA's scheduling of Leeds United's matches next season?"

Brimham:............

····

Brinkham has left.

Li Shiguang then led Allen back to the locker room.

The conversation between the two did not last very long.

So at this point, the players were still in the locker room celebrating their victory around the Premier League trophy displayed in the center.

Back in the locker room, Li Shiguang naturally couldn't avoid a champagne shower. Led by Simeone, Li Shiguang was drenched by the excited players. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance, leaving his custom-made suit in the office and only wearing a shirt.

Ten minutes later.

The players are still dancing.

Li Shiguang, Simone, Rivaldo, and Cannavaro sat in a corner of the locker room.

Having just finished a champagne shower, Cannavaro has found Li Shiguang and formally submitted his application to retire after the remaining two matches.

Li Shiguang was also very generous.

They indicated they would convert the remaining six months of the Italian veteran's contract salary into bonuses, to be distributed together after the Champions League matches concluded.

It was also announced in front of all the players.

Starting next season, Cannavaro will officially join his coaching staff and become Leeds United's main coach!

····

As soon as the four sat down, Simone excitedly announced, "Boss, the game is over."

Li Shiguang was also curious: "Oh? How did it end?"

Simone stared at his phone screen with interest and said, "Fulham beat Portsmouth, Reading and Birmingham were relegated."

As soon as he finished speaking...
