Damn it guys, Neymar is going to Manchester City! The NB clubs are also gathered together, damn, who else can beat Manchester City?

2L
Ah? Really?
3L
He really went there. It's officially announced. Neymar is already in Manchester. The official account is live streaming now. You can go and have a look.

No, he's gone now? There was no news the whole summer. Before the World Cup, Real Madrid wanted to trade him for Ronaldo, and Barcelona also wanted him back, but I didn't hear that Manchester City wanted him. What's going on? ? ?
Moreover, Paris bought him for 2.2 million, and he only stayed for one season, and was injured for half of the season. Selling him for 1.8 million? It's a loss, right?

5L
Because BBB wants him

6L
What the hell?

Isn't that nonsense? Do you really think Manchester City is taking advantage of you? Who are you talking about? How long have you been there and how many championships have you won? How many shares does he have? Neymar is worth so much, and he is a fake. Can you just buy him if you want?
Also, you two are BBB, he and Ding Ding, both are weaklings in the competition, and have bad tempers. You treat them like treasures and want to get whoever you want. It's out of the question.

9L
Tsk, the avatar above has been exposed, noble Real Madrid fans, please leave, my city is small and cannot accommodate you big Buddhas (Real Madrid and Madrid are both fans? Are there really such fans? I am dying of laughter, this cloud bar comes once every four years)

10L
BBB really wants whoever he wants. Don't forget his godfather, who spoils him like crazy. I just want to say, please don't pass on your gay genes to BBB. I still remember the fight between several movie stars at the Oscars in 06 over him (sweating soybeans)

11L
Is Edmundo so capable?

12L
Yes, he has cooperated with the Qatari consortium. He is not on the Forbes list (real big shots are not on this list). By the way, his father's last name is Bonaparte, yes, the Bonaparte of Napoleon.

13L
Even if he can, Neymar's annual salary is outrageous.
【Weekly salary reaches 40 pounds-screenshot】
The base salary is 40 yuan, plus scattered bonuses, it’s more than 60 yuan, which directly surpasses Teacher Ding and BBB. How can the locker room not have any objections?
14L
It's hard to say about Ding Ding, he's arrogant, but seeing that he praised Neymar's dribbling in an interview, it shouldn't be a big problem? BBB is easier to say, that's the Neymar he wants.
15L
Even brothers can settle accounts clearly. If Manchester City follows this approach, the contract renewal at the end of the year will usher in a wave of substantial salary increases.

16L
Neymar's move was really cool. He wanted to be the core position and went to Paris to be the boss. After one season, he found that it was not possible. Without the protection of big brother Messi, he was beaten when he went on the court. So he went to Manchester City, but Manchester City's BBB became the king. He went around in circles and finally did not become the core. Oh, the number 10 is still Akun's, and he became number 11 again.
17L
Making money, playing football, hanging out with friends, not shabby (fun)

18L
Am I the only one who thinks that the city of mud will collapse this season? Putting aside the facts, BBB is a heart arsonist. When he first went to the Blue Moon, he was always with A Kun. Later, Teacher Ding took over, and then Ederson, B Silva, and Walker went. Everyone knows that BBB and Ma had a gay collision in the World Cup. Now he goes to your city, tsk.
19L
Back then, MSN proved that love between three people was too crowded. BBB saw that it was not working and simply expanded the team to 3. Three people were too crowded, so I added a few more people. We were all good friends and good brothers, and it wouldn’t be crowded anymore (happy).

20L
(Thumbs up) OK, you are the most outrageous guy above, it's the football world's Zhen Huan, right? You're building a harem for BBB?

21L
Fuck, I remembered the pain of being dragged by my girlfriend to watch Legend of Zhen Huan
But you know what, it's pretty good.

22L
(True fragrance warning)
23L
I bet 100 hairs on it. This season, Manchester City will have a bloody season. With the name of "Green Hollywood" inherited from Bayern, they will continue to dominate the world.

The discussion in the forum was heated and Neymar was not idle either. After shaking hands and signing with the Manchester City chairman, he changed into a new jersey and went to the exhibition hall to take photos and sign autographs for the fans who had been waiting for a long time. Language was a big problem. He could understand some English, but could not speak it. Sam Eli followed him to help translate. It was said that this guy had been Batistuta's translator.

After lunch, around 2pm, the motorcade drove Neymar to the Etihad Stadium, which was already packed with people. Fans held up his posters and jerseys to warmly welcome him. In the crowd, a few fans held up a double banner of him and Batistuta. Neymar passed the bodyguards and signed autographs for these lucky people.

There was still more than 10 minutes of break before the appearance. Neymar said hello to the person in charge and Sam Eli and went to the toilet. Then he went out and turned around and walked quickly in the opposite direction.

"This way!" Batty poked his head out of the stairwell and waved, "Are you stupid? I sent you a clear route map, but you still have to follow the signs."

Yes, on the day when Neymar appeared at Etihad Stadium, Batistuta also came to the scene. In order not to steal his limelight, Manchester City's Brazilian Rose dressed herself up as a cleaner, wore black contact lenses and stuck on a fake beard.

"I watched the video you recorded, but it's still a little more difficult in practice," Neymar said.

He entered the stairwell and closed the door. Batty pulled off his cleaner's hat and fake beard, revealing his light-colored hair underneath, which was wet. He fanned himself with his hands, and the wind made his hair stick up to the sides in a mess. It seemed that the disguise props had overheated him.

"Don't explain," Batty said. "You're just an idiot."

Neymar snorted twice, but didn't refute it. Perhaps Batistuta, who was steaming all over and dressed like Super Mario, was too cute. He crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows, and showed Batistuta the new jersey: "What do you think?"

Batty leaned against the wall behind him. He looked around and said teasingly, "I can't tell. Come on, turn around so I can see."

Neymar turned around obediently.

"Not bad, really good." Batty smiled with satisfaction, "Turn around again."

Neymar obediently turned around again.

"Very good." Batty's smile deepened. "Take it off and let me see it."

Neymar pretended to take off his jersey. When he pulled the collar to the top, he secretly glanced at Batistuta, who had no intention of stopping him. He leaned against the wall and looked at the scenery under his jersey with interest.

"You really want me to take my jersey off," Neymar said.

"Why not." Batty looked at him with a smile, "There are still 10 minutes, which should be enough."

"What?" Neymar raised his eyebrows and looked over dangerously, "Do you think that's enough?"

"That's enough of your words." Barty hooked his finger, "Hurry up, I didn't come here dressed like this just to talk to you, at least——"

Neymar pressed forward.

"--At least get a hug and a kiss." Batty put his hand on his shoulder and slowly said the second half of the sentence that didn't match Yu's previous words.

In fact, the second half of the sentence is his true thought.

It's not that Batistuta doesn't want to do it, but he can't do it in these two days, at least he can't let Neymar see it. God knows where De Bruyne got so many props. Until Batistuta got up this morning, the marks were still there, and they were very obvious.

"That's good enough. 10 minutes is only enough for two hugs and a kiss." Neymar bumped Batistuta's nose, and then reversed his position while the other was in pain, taking the initiative back into his own hands, "I'm going to kiss you, what do you want - hey!"

Batistuta didn't give him the chance to continue pulling, he simply grabbed the back of his head and pressed him towards himself. The moment their lips touched, Batistuta skillfully pried open the other's teeth and invited him into his territory, so Neymar gave up the initiative he had just obtained.

Kissing is the most direct and pure way for humans to express their emotions. Sometimes it can last for a long time. Neymar's phone began to vibrate. Sam Eli asked him when he would go back to the hall, which meant that they didn't have much time left. Batistuta cut off those kisses before they were about to go down the corners of his mouth. In the dim stairwell, he hugged Neymar for a while, and then suddenly asked: "Ney, are you happy now?"

"Hmm?" Neymar didn't understand what he meant. "What do you want to say?"

"I saw people discussing your number online." Batistuta's expression calmed down a little. He pulled Neymar's arm and made him face sideways. "You want No. 10."

"Oh, this." Neymar acted very relaxed. He leaned over and kissed the corner of Batistuta's mouth. "It's just a number. There's nothing to want or not want."

"Every player wants to be the core of the team. There is nothing difficult to say about it," Batty said.

"No. 10 does not mean the core." Neymar replied, "Aguero is Manchester City's No. 10. Is he the core now?"

This is true.

Batistuta nodded. Guardiola's style of play cannot make the center forward the core, and Aguero is indeed not young anymore.

"I like the No. 10 because it represents the player's status and the club's sincerity." Neymar added, "But that is not the decisive factor. I will not agree to join a team just because it promises to give me the No. 10."

"Really? Didn't you choose Paris because of those?" Batistuta muttered.

Neymar slapped him lightly on the forehead, which earned him a series of eye rolls.

"Don't think too much. Coming to Manchester City is what I want. It's a mature idea after careful consideration," he said. "It's not an impulsive decision, nor is it just because you are here."

Neymar did not lie, he came to Manchester City, firstly because Edmundo was willing to help. After that, Manchester City has achieved good results in the league and the Champions League in recent seasons, and is a new upstart that has left the giants far behind; secondly, Sane's departure made them short of people on the left, like a puzzle, and he fits the bill; and finally, it was because of Batistuta.

If all other conditions permit, he wants to win more championships with Barty.

"I heard that the club promised to give you the number 10 when Kun retires," Batistuta added.

"Yes." Neymar looked over, flicked the hair on Batistuta's forehead twice, and asked, "Do you want it?"

"No, I prefer my No. 9." Batty raised his chin, "If possible, my national team also wants No. 9."

Uh-huh, that's very Batty.

Neymar chuckled a few times, then cut off Sam Eli's third call. He pinched Batistuta's jaw to make him lower his head, and quickly kissed Batistuta's eyes.

"I'll do anything for you," he said. "If you want a No. 10 or something in the future, just tell me and I'll make it happen for you."

"You sound like my godfather," Batty said jokingly. "Now that you say that, I'm willing to do anything for you - except wearing those ugly clothes."

"Are you laughing at my eyes?"

"Yes, among the things you like, except me, they are all terrible."

"Nonsense, everyone is complimenting my outfit."

"That's thanks to your stylist."

The two were in a mess in the stairwell. After another two minutes, the air suddenly became quiet. After a pause, Batistuta supported himself against the wall and got up from Neymar. He then took two steps back with his hands behind his back in a very solemn manner.

Neymar looked over in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Batistuta did not answer, but simply extended his hand to Neymar.

"Welcome to the championship team, Mr. Neymar," the boy said in a retro tone. "I promise you, we will be invincible."

Neymar smiled, looked into Batistuta's blue eyes, and held the hand firmly.

"Thank you," he said. "I always believed it."

……

At the same time, in the meeting room of Manchester United Club, Augustus was discussing the next operations with the financial officer, CEO Woodwalk and head coach Mourinho.

"I tried to contact the person in charge of Paris, but the guy was a little irritable and was still in the pain of losing Neymar. He refused to talk about Mbappe at all." Woodward said, "This is not a problem that can be solved by money. At least wait until next year, I think they will be willing to talk by then."

"Where are the others?" Augustus asked.

"Griezmann is in the talks. He and his team prefer Barcelona." Woodwalker replied, "But Barcelona can give them very little. The two sides are deadlocked on the contract issue. The informant told me that Barcelona has already spent the 2 million left by Neymar, so-"

"This is our advantage," Augustus continued, "Let's continue the conversation, starting with his family, and tell them that the contract Manchester United can offer is unimaginably good."

"Excuse me," Mourinho interrupted, "while you are madly piling up the frontcourt, I want to ask, how is the defense? The list I submitted includes a left back."

"Don't worry, Jose, you will get everything you want." Augustus took a document from the financial officer and threw it to the head coach. "It's done. We stopped the process at the last minute when he was loaned out. Real Madrid is easier to deal with than we thought."

Looking at the face on the document that was similar to the defender of his city rival, Mourinho smiled with satisfaction. When he moved into Old Trafford two years ago, he never expected that such a day would come.

The ideal team was about to be completed. Mourinho stood up and shook hands with his boss and player. I'm sorry, Pep. He thought, it's not only you, Manchester City, who are willing to spend money to build a team, Manchester United can do it too, and I have once again become the biggest obstacle on your way forward. Now let's see who can stand at the top in this era of money.
