Football: I can see player entries.

Chapter 161 Gift

A few days later, Burton won the second round of the FA Cup.

So far there hasn't been much pressure, but in the next round they will play Crystal Palace, which will be a clash between Premier League teams.

Upon returning to the club, Li Yanqing was immediately stopped by Chris.

"Hey, aren't you going to worry about Will's business?"

"He hasn't come to watch a game in a while."

"Why are you stopping me...?"

“Don’t worry about him, Susan will ‘take care’ of him,” Chris said, then shouted back.

"Barker!"

"Rhine!"

"Li is here, we can set off now!"

"Set off? Is there any need to go anywhere else for a meeting?" Li Yanqing looked at the group and couldn't find any other reason to bring them together except for a meeting.

"You'll see when you get there." Barker immediately pushed him into the car.

"Didn't Mourinho come here a while ago?"

Chris found an opportunity to talk to him.

"and then?"

"Then you'll know when you get there."

"Oh, stop playing games..." Li Yanqing didn't like guessing; he preferred the feeling of having things under his control.

This kind of journey to an unknown destination is what worries him the most.

"Don't worry, I won't sell you."

"This place isn't like some northern regions..."

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at a small house with a yard.

It's not very big, but it's far from the city center, very quiet, and the scenery is quite nice.

"You're not going to tell me this is going to be our secret base from now on, are you?"

"There's no need for that. As long as Robinson isn't around, no one can stop you from having a barbecue in the office if you want..."

"Don't overthink it," Barker shook his head and continued.

"This will be your new home from now on."

"The club bought this place as a reward for you leading us to the Premier League."

"Huh?" Li Yanqing didn't react immediately.

"Don't make a fuss, consider this a gift from Robinson and us together."

"We've been too busy lately, so no one has thought about this."

"As Mourinho said, you can't even keep a dog where you live..."

Chris pulled a few keys from his pocket and tossed them to him.

“Uh…” Li Yanqing was speechless for a moment.

He doesn't move to a different place because it's very close to the club, only a ten-minute walk away.

Besides, he's all alone, so he doesn't need a very big place.

"Thank you, I'll remember that."

"Just let me know when you need anything from me."

"Of course, I'll also help you appease Miss Maggie."

"That commentator still talks about me through gritted teeth..."

In any case, this is a gift they gave themselves.

Li Yanqing was quite pleased with it.

"You just need to focus on leading the team."

"If you don't want to be a shady business, then you have to be a dark horse."

Chris and Buckle were surprisingly in agreement.

They are unaware of Li Yanqing's plans, so they are still hoping the team will achieve amazing results this season.

"I try my best."

The current momentum is good, but the final result this season...

He really couldn't guarantee that.

However, as long as nothing major goes wrong, it shouldn't be a big problem to get 40 or 50 points even if things go wrong later on.

"By the way, there is one more question."

Li Yanqing looked at the house in front of him. The furniture inside was already prepared, so he didn't need to tidy it up himself. He could move in at any time.

It looks good, the only problem is that there's not a single person on the street in front of the door.

"This must be a newly built community; it seems like no one has moved in yet."

"And as far as I know, there shouldn't be any public buses in this kind of place."

"So, how do I get to work?"

"Lend me one before I buy one..."

"Uh..." Chris and the others scratched the back of their heads.

They really hadn't considered that issue.

Li Yanqing received a considerable salary, but no one expected that this guy hadn't changed his house or even bought a car yet.

He always thought that calling a taxi directly was more convenient.

"Okay, let's go back to the club and get another car..."

"Wait for us a moment."

Chris decisively pulled Buckle back to the car; it would get dark soon.

After they left, only Li Yanqing and Rhein remained.

"Li, I have something I'd like to tell you."

"About Quinn and Murphy..."

Rhine found a place to sit down. He had personally trained both of them, so he had always paid close attention to them.

"First of all, thank you for your trust in them."

"And your resolute refusal to sell them..."

"No, you're welcome." Li Yanqing shook his head.

"They are growing very fast, mainly because of their own abilities."

“Let me finish, Lee.” Rhine shook his head as well, his tone now somewhat grave.

"What I mean is, if any big clubs are willing to sign them."

"Perhaps we could choose to release them?"

"After all, even if you win the league title this year, it's impossible for the team to become a powerhouse in just a few years."

"Sometimes we also have to consider the players' own future."

"And we can use the money to buy those established players."

"This is better for everyone..."

“That’s impossible, Rhein.” Li Yanqing rejected him decisively.

"Unless the player himself wants to leave and wants to play for those so-called 'elite clubs'."

"Otherwise, they'll both always be non-saleable..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly frowned.

Rhine was not someone who liked to give him advice.

The other party only ever focused on doing their own job well, and as for the first team, he basically never commented on it.

Unless the club has already received an offer and someone else asked him to persuade him.

Has anyone made an offer to them?

"Rhine!"

"I'm the head coach, I have the right to know this!"
