Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 913 FA Cup Winner and Manchester United Fans' Concerns
"The ball is in!"

"The ball is in!"

Manchester United won the penalty shootout!

"4-3! Manchester United have won the FA Cup this season thanks to their lead in the penalty shootout!"

Manchester United were surprisingly eliminated from the FA Cup last season, and it's really unexpected that Wolves would have the ability to upset them.

You can't say that Manchester United is better this season than last season, but they have definitely won more trophies.

"Actually, if we look at the league win rate alone, Manchester United's performance this season is not as good as last season. The injuries to De Jong and Varane have indeed brought some problems to the team."

"Yes, but Manchester United's greatest strength is how quickly they learn from their mistakes, and that ability is often very important in professional football."

"Let's congratulate Manchester United!"

[2022-2023 FA Cup Winner]

Manchester United

At Wembley Stadium, the Manchester City players, who had just won the runner-up medal, seemed somewhat dazed and unable to accept the reality.

"fine!"

Kyle Walker reassured his teammates: "We went to penalties, so both we and Manchester United are exhausted right now. As long as we maintain our form, we can win the Champions League!"

"We traded the FA Cup for the Champions League!"

Kyle Walker was also very optimistic, and he found a relatively tricky angle to analyze the problem.

They deliberately lost the FA Cup to Manchester United.

If Manchester United struggled for two hours in the FA Cup final, what will happen in the Champions League final in Istanbul?

comfortable!
"Erlin".

Tang Ye hugged Haaland: "I'm sorry."

"fine."

Haaland shook his head and laughed: "See you in the Champions League in a week."

"Haha, sure. Erling, do you really think you can beat us in the Champions League?"

Manchester City played exceptionally well today, but Tang Ye also has great confidence in his team.

"It's hard to say, but I think we should have a chance."

After receiving Haaland's reply, Tang Ye patted his old teammate's arm hard a few times: "Keep it up!"

……

“Glory Glory Man United~”

"Glory Glory Man United!"

Tang Ye, holding the trophy, walked around Wembley Stadium with his teammates, enjoying their moment of victory.

"Man United!"

"Man United!"

"We have already won the FA Cup, and next we are going to Istanbul to win the Champions League. This will be our second consecutive Champions League title," Ten Hag said into the microphone in the middle of the stadium.

"Manchester United owes its success to the support of its fans; it is your support that has made Manchester United so strong today."

"I assure you, this season will be a perfect season, and we will win the championship in Istanbul, which will be our fifth championship this season."

"Wow!!!!"

"Ten Hag!"

"Ten Hag!"

"Ten Hag!"

Fortunately, Ronaldo has already left the team; otherwise, seeing this situation, he might have acted like Eskrima and directly attacked Ten Hag.

"Champion!"

"Champion!"

"Champion Man United!"

……

懂球帝战报：剑南春白酒|曼联0:0，点球大战4:3击败曼城夺得足总杯冠军，完成22-23赛季第四冠。

As the match report stated, the FA Cup title is Manchester United's fourth trophy this season. And the end of this match also means that Manchester City have been completely shut out of domestic leagues this season.

If they want to win the championship this season, they only have one option – the Champions League final in Turkey next week.

No league title, no FA Cup title, but aiming for the Champions League title, this season's Manchester City is somewhat similar to Liverpool's previous unconventional approach.

It will be very difficult to snatch a Champions League title from Manchester United, but this match has given some Manchester City fans hope.

"We were tied 0-0 in regular time and extra time, so we actually had the ability to beat Manchester United."

A Manchester City fan was interviewed by a reporter from London Football outside Wembley Stadium: "We've been losing to Manchester United all season, five times already, but we just need to win once, the most important one."

As soon as he finished speaking, the interviewed fan suddenly raised his voice and shouted at the camera.

"Just you wait, Manchester United!"

"Just you wait, TY!"

……

Speaking of Tang Ye, the Manchester United captain did not see the video of the opposing fans taunting him.

He's been so busy lately, training during the day and then chatting with Paul about Bubble Bond in the evenings.

In addition, the Chinese team's Asian Cup training camp has already begun at the end of May. Tang Ye will have to return to China after finishing the Champions League match, with almost no rest time.

On the night after winning the FA Cup, Porto called Tang Ye.

"Congratulations, Tom. When I saw the regular season was 0-0, I thought you guys were going to pull off an upset."

"Hey! Why is it an upset? Even if we lost to Manchester City, it wouldn't be considered an upset. Don't be misled by the online opinions. Manchester City is not bad."

Tang Ye told Boer.

Of all the opponents Manchester United have faced this season, Manchester City is undoubtedly the best.

"Haha, then I was indeed misled by the internet. There are so many people praising you online, it gives me the feeling that you are invincible."

"Come on... watch less of that stuff, it'll make you stupid," Tang Ye kindly reminded him.

"Okay, okay, let me talk about UAG first. The name we initially decided on was 'United Youth Training Group', but I encountered some problems in actual operation."

Boll told Tang Ye that youth training is indeed very vulnerable to lawsuits in China, especially since UAG has openly opposed the Chinese Football Association, making progress almost impossible. Considering this, Boll plans to rename the company from "United Youth Training Group" to "United Development Group." Using the name "United Development Group" would make it easier for the company to list in China, making it a perfect compromise.

First, change the name to United Development Group (UDG). Then, when it goes public, change the name again to United Development Corporation (UDC).

It will probably take another two years for the company to reach the UDC model. By then, everything should be ready, and we can start sending youth players to clubs around the world.

As for the listing, Ball's plan is for Pop Bond to hold 40% of the shares, ICBC to transfer 20% of the shares, and the remaining 40% of the shares to the public on the stock exchange.

"I think it's okay."

Tang Ye nodded.

It hasn't been an easy journey, but he can already imagine the massive scale of UDC in the future!
The world's best publicly traded youth training company, bar none!

"Well, and then, then there's the matter of Saudi Arabia..."

“I’m in Riyadh right now. I spoke with the people from the Crescent Club this morning. All the promises they made to you were true. You’ll be the team captain as soon as you join, and you’ll have enough rest even if you’re healthy. You only need to play 2 out of 3 games.”

At this point, Paul's tone became hesitant: "They told me... um..."

"What did you say?"

"They said that if you want to take a break, they suggest you come to Saudi Arabia to play for a while, and they will give you good enough treatment."

"..."

Tang Ye fell silent.

"So, Tom? You don't need to say anything, I can tell you're quite interested in this. Should I continue to negotiate with them? If it's appropriate, I'll have someone from Crescent Moon submit an offer to Manchester United. The transfer fee should be around $5 million."

"Let's not rush things."

"Oh, okay, then I won't contact them for now?"

"Let's not stop contacting each other right away, just keep in touch."

"Yes, I understand what you mean."

Paul remembered what Tang Ye said: "Anyway, what I mean is, whatever choice you make, you should tell me as soon as possible, because the sooner you tell me, the more time I will have to negotiate with them, which will be better for you."

"Yes, I know, you've said that many times, Paul."

"Oh? Is there any?"

"Anyway, I remember at least three times. Anyway, let's not talk about that, I'm hanging up now."

"Yeah, good luck in the Champions League next week."

……

Announcement: United Youth Training Group will be renamed United Development Group (UDG) effective June 1.

ESPN: The Champions League final in Istanbul on May 29th will be the sixth derby between Manchester United and Manchester City this season, with Ten Hag and Guardiola vying for the title of Coach of the Season.

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has announced that the semi-finals and finals of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup will be held at the Beijing Workers' Stadium.

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has announced that the opening match of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup in China will be held on June 9th, with the host team China facing Vietnam at the Qingdao Youth Football Stadium.

Recently, many fans have left messages in the AFC's comment section asking whether Tang Ye will participate in the opening match. This question has been raised for at least two weeks, but the AFC has still not given a reply.

According to fans, if Tang Ye isn't in the opening game, what's the point of watching it?
The AFC has contacted Tang Ye, but has not received a definite answer, so they have been unable to reply to the fans.

So fans can only find information on the Chinese national team's Weibo account, but they can't find anything except the national team's Asian Cup roster.

The final conclusion is that Tang Yezhen may not participate in the opening match.

However, based on past experience, Tang Ye should be able to play in the second group stage match, since his recovery speed is indeed on a completely different level from that of a typical professional player.

On May 27th, the Manchester United and Manchester City players, having completed their preparations, were ready to depart for Türkiye.

Metro newspaper reprinted a Saudi media report stating that Riyadh Crescent will continue to maintain communication with TY, hoping to bring the four-time Globe winner to Saudi Arabia.

"After Al-Hilal acquired Ronaldo, Al-Hilal's dominance in the Saudi league may be threatened. The club's foundation has expressed its dissatisfaction and hopes that the club will spend a lot of money to bring in TY from Manchester United."

It seems that the owners of several clubs in the Saudi league are at odds. First, Riyadh Victory set a goal of dominating the Saudi league, and then the Riyadh Crescent Foundation retorted that they wanted to rule Asia.

Dominating Asia is extremely difficult, and Al-Hilal is determined to do so: they not only want to buy Tang Ye, but also to acquire at least five other players from the top five European leagues during the summer transfer window.

At first, no one thought the New Moon's plan would succeed, because the very first step of their plan was incredibly difficult.

Buying Tang Ye is a dream that Barcelona has pursued for several seasons without success!
However... judging from the current reports in Saudi media, this matter seems to be quite feasible?
According to a detailed article written by Saudi media, Al-Hilal has prepared a very generous budget and they themselves "can impress Manchester United's management and persuade them to complete the transfer." If that's the case, then all they need to do is persuade Tang Ye.

So far, Tang Ye has not made any statement, but his agent, Bohr, has been repeatedly photographed boarding and landing at Riyadh airport.

No, it can't be...

The Sun editor: It is unlikely that TY will transfer to Al-Hilal, but the probability is indeed greater than imagined.

The Manchester Evening News' front-page headline reads: Manchester United fan groups launch a joint protest on Twitter, demanding that the club's management respond to the New Moon offer as soon as possible.

"They are worried that the Glazer family might make an impulsive choice that could even affect the team's future."

Originally, because of the team's good performance, fans were more tolerant of the Glazer family.

But now that news has come out that a team wants to sign Tang Ye, Manchester United fans can't sit still anymore. The day before the Champions League final, they went directly to Old Trafford and held up a sign that read "Glazer family out".

"TY will stay at Manchester United!"

"TY will stay at Manchester United!"

……

[Whether New Moon is genuine or not, you should buy Tang Ye. They only bought Mitrovic this year, it seems like they're unwilling to spend big money.]

[What do you know? Tang Ye is the core player. Only after confirming whether Tang Ye is willing to come can Crescent Moon begin other transfers. If they can get Tang Ye, then Crescent Moon only needs to buy a striker and a defender.]

[A $5 million transfer fee? Dude, that's outrageous! Does anyone know how many years New Moon is going to sign with Donna?]

[Don't mess around, Tang! Manchester United really can't do without you, don't do this!]

[It's all fake news, why are you panicking? Didn't Victory, the team next to Crescent Moon, say they wanted to buy Mbappe, but they ended up with nothing? Money can be earned later, I, Tang, am still young, no need to mess around.]

You guys are new to football, aren't you? Don't you know I, King Tang, started out as a nobody?

……

According to sources from Diario Sport, Real Madrid are uneasy about Crescent's repeated pursuit of TY and have hoped to communicate further with Manchester United, but have been rejected by the club.

"Judging from the reactions of Real Madrid and Manchester United's management, the Glazers' pursuit of TY is absolutely real, and they seem to have indeed made an offer that would entice the Glazer family. Manchester United may plan to speak directly with Tang Ye after the Champions League final to ascertain the player's thoughts."

Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, in a media interview, stated: "Crescent Moon's pursuit of TY is completely genuine, and we are confident in bringing the world's best players to Saudi Arabia."

"Furthermore, Saudi Arabia will officially bid to host the 2034 World Cup, and the arrival of TY and Cristiano will provide us with ample assistance."
