If you are a brother, come and play football

Having gloves makes things faster.

No wonder they encourage bringing it with you for everything.

Before long, Paryuka dug more than 30 centimeters, revealing a black nylon handle.

Lu Deyang bent down and pulled hard, pulling the travel bag up.

Thankfully, they didn't fill the soil in properly.

More than 90,000 spectators at Wembley watched as Lu Deyang rushed to the sidelines with a handbag in hand.

Some disturbances have already occurred in the stands.

Hollywood is always making movies, and people who are even slightly sensitive will find it unpleasant.

Of course, some people still don't understand.

The main reason is that Europe has been too quiet in recent years.

The British royal family acted the fastest, fleeing immediately under the escort of bodyguards.

It wasn't until he got into the car that he remembered to call the other members of the royal family who had been invited.

In critical moments, you still have to rely on yourself.

If all those distant relatives die, perhaps the younger generation can inherit the throne of another country.

……

"Where's my car?"

Lu Deyang shouted at the staff.

The staff were still standing there, watching Van Basten direct the players to leave from the other side, completely unaware of what had happened.

"Damn it, where's my car?"

Lu Deyang kicked him.

The staff member exclaimed "Ah!" and pointed into the passageway, saying, "It's parked against the wall at the end. We don't have the key, so it's not locked."

Lu Deyang grabbed the bag and ran, finally breathing a sigh of relief when he saw the motorcycle.

Two bags were still not very convenient, so he immediately tied the handles of the two bags together and hung them directly on the front of the car.

Perhaps it would be better to bear the weight on my stomach, but I feel a little uneasy without seeing the bomb.

boom--

With a throttle input, Lu Deyang sped off.

Rumbling--

"This is Ruby Jenkinson, sports reporter for BSkyB. We're providing stadium views and spectator updates. There's been a problem during the match, causing an interruption. Dejan has dug up two travel bags near both teams' penalty areas. According to our informant at Scotland Yard, a group of bomb suspects were apprehended earlier today, and these are likely bombs that Scotland Yard didn't find... My God, those people are actually planning to send the world's best players to hell, it's insane and terrifying..."

The reporter expressed his horror, but his tone was full of excitement.

This television station was the predecessor of Sky TV, and Jenkinson never expected to encounter such big news.

Taking aerial photos from a helicopter is dangerous and arduous; only journalists with little status would go up there.

However, right now, only they can keep up with Lu Deyang, which is a great gift from heaven.

He waved his arms frantically, signaling that he must stay with Lu Deyang.

However, Lu Deyang encountered difficulties as soon as he left the field.

"A large number of fans gathered outside Wembley today, and many chose to park haphazardly, causing traffic jams on nearby streets. If the bomb were to detonate here, Dejan would be affected along with many other fans..."

Jenkinson shouted excitedly.

Perhaps we can commemorate Lu Deyang on May 31st next year. It's only one day away from Lu Deyang's birthday. Isn't this fate?

As the last reporter to capture Lu Deyang's image, he felt obligated to ensure the world remembered Lu Deyang's great spirit, and could even publish a few memoirs detailing the anguish he experienced while filming. However, to allow fans worldwide to understand the truth, he reluctantly remained at his post.

Lu Deyang, who was riding his bicycle, didn't think too much about it.

The moment he saw this, he had an idea. He twisted the handle hard, stepped on the gas, lifted the front of the car, and drove straight up the hood of an old Ferrari, bumping and jolting forward on the parked car.

It's better to not be able to increase speed than to stay in one place.

Seeing so many people outside, Lu Deyang gave up on the idea of ​​telling the truth.

If we take off their helmets now and tell them there's a bomb, it could cause a massive stampede.

Based on his memory from reading the travel guide, Lu Deyang knew there were three routes to leave Wembley.

The road to the northwest leads to Watford, where there is a nature reserve, but there are too many hospitals and schools nearby, which makes accidents more likely.

To the west is the path to Edward VII Memorial Park, next to which are the elementary school and Wembley Hill Hotel. The key point is that the park will likely have visitors on weekends, and he's not sure if he can get there. If he detonates it prematurely, it would be like carrying a bomb to blow up the school.

So Lu Deyang chose a road heading east. Once past the Costco supermarket, there were no densely populated areas, and there was a river nearby.

Apart from the Thames, most of London's rivers are stagnant, so apart from the occasional visit by environmental organizations, virtually no one goes to those places.

Even if we don't choose a place with crocodiles for a picnic, we probably won't do it.

After careful consideration, Lu Deyang immediately chose the route eastward, heading towards Inner London.

I estimated the approximate time in my mind. If it didn't work, it would probably explode not far from the supermarket, and then the cars and pedestrians on the road would be in big trouble.

However, it's still better than being in a crowded area.

Damn it, once this is over, Suzuki has to pay me a hefty sum.

……

"It seems Dejan is planning to continue along the Grand Central Road. The traffic situation isn't great right now, and the London police are always unreliable in crucial moments. But Dejan's choice is quite good. I remember there's only one advertising company there, and then there are vast wetlands and the River Floss..."

Ferguson stared wide-eyed at the television, forgetting to drink the red tea in his hand.

Sitting to the side, Cathy Ferguson swallowed hard and asked, "Alex, are we watching a game?"

Ferguson nodded subconsciously.

Yes, he and his wife were watching the Italian All-Stars vs. European All-Stars match together, how did it turn into a bombing scene?

What he found even harder to accept was that Lu Deyang had become a hero.

As a coach, out of his fondness for outstanding and young players, he was very reluctant to see this promising young player become a hero.

Scotland Yard has so many police officers, and even the dignitaries present have bodyguards. Why do we need a player to be the hero? Remember, being a hero always comes at a price!
The Scottish coach's hands were trembling as he held the cup.

He would rather Lu Deyang park the car nearby and run away himself than risk rescuing a stranger, a British man.

Live broadcast across Europe.

This time, there were even more spectators than when Lu Deyang rushed into the fire to save people last time.

Galliani is going completely mad.

He had finally made some money and was preparing to continue accumulating capital to return to Italy when this happened.

What if something happens to you? How will he make money?

He is now a shareholder of Adidas.

After a brief moment of panic, he dialed the familiar number again and asked, "Adriano Galliani, code c006187g24, is there a way to ensure Dejan won't die and that the explosion won't affect ordinary people... or get hurt? No, no, just like I said. Okay, I'll buy it for $30."

This is all the money he has left.

Galliani had great faith in Lu Deyang and almost wanted to buy him out of injury.

But upon closer reflection, even if you sprain your ankle when getting off the bus, it's still an injury.

Given the current situation, it's very difficult to avoid injury.

After hanging up the phone, Galliani slumped into his chair. If something happened to Lu Deyang, not only would the last bit of money be wasted, but the stocks he bought would probably never rise.

Deyang, you absolutely mustn't get into trouble!

……

"Deyang has passed the Classic Glass Manufacturing Company and is still moving forward. Currently, no one except himself knows when the bomb will explode. Ahead are the International Furniture City and Costco supermarket. The furniture city is holding an exhibition, and there are many citizens participating..."

Race against time!

We encountered another traffic jam.

Fortunately, Lu Deyang likes to anticipate the worst-case scenario.

At the furniture market exhibition, some vendors set up their booths outside, causing many customers to wander around on the street. Across the street was a supermarket, and the parking lot was full of cars.

Fortunately, Lu Deyang's driving skills were excellent enough that he managed to weave through the crowd without any collisions.

At this point, he couldn't help but criticize Scotland Yard.

Is traffic control really that difficult? He's been out of Wembley for several minutes already.

"Mom, it's Deyang..."

A young fan shouted.

The scene became even more chaotic. Lu Deyang twisted the handle hard to let the fans know what was going on, and finally someone voluntarily made way for them.

After breaking through the crowd, Lu Deyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
One of the cars was waving at Lu Deyang; the young man driving it clearly wanted to have an exciting urban chase with Lu the King of Balls.

The next second his mouth dropped open.

The Suzuki GSX-R1100 is flying at low altitude.

With a roar, the speed increased to an exaggerated level.

160 is only considered idle speed. The UK has restrictions on the horsepower of motorcycles, but Lu Deyang's motorcycle did not have such restrictions.

The numbers on the speedometer were jumping wildly.

It reached the 2-series almost instantly, and it continues to rise.

Lu Deyang steadily maneuvered through the traffic, almost like a shooting star.

The reporter shouted against the wind, "It's definitely over 299 kilometers per hour, it's off the charts, it's definitely off the charts!!! This is putting pressure on the drone footage. The limit of the speedometer isn't the limit of the bike, and the limit of the bike isn't Dejan's limit. My God, if he went to participate in a GP race, he might even win the championship. Dejan is Dejan, whether on or off the track, he's the fastest man among all the stars..."

It raced through the city at a speed of 330 kilometers per hour.

This is no longer just a matter of having a strong birth chart; if Lu Deyang didn't have the "God of Motorcycles," he wouldn't dare to do this.

The road leading to Wembley is not wide, but there is a lot of traffic.

Then they saw a motorcycle dart out from beside them and disappear almost instantly.

Startled, they looked around and confirmed that they were in London.

Even at such a rapid pace, Lu Deyang was still worried that it wouldn't be enough.

Damn it, those bastards.

It was supposed to be before the end of the match, but when the object was unearthed, the countdown on it only had 15 minutes left.

If it weren't for Lu Qiuwang's quick thinking, both teams' players and the fans in the front row would be meeting their maker today.

We were delayed by Wembley and the traffic congestion, but we should have about two minutes left.

If the map scale is correct, he should have had enough time and could even have ensured his own safety.

The things hanging on the front of the car didn't fall off. If nothing happens this time, he'll definitely buy two travel bags from the same brand. The quality is damn good!
The road is empty!
Damn it, the British have finally implemented traffic control.

Lu Deyang breathed a sigh of relief.

At a speed of 90 meters per second, he is not afraid of getting injured, but he is afraid of hitting others.

Why don't you just cut the car in half right there and then?

The surrounding area consisted of factories and low-rise office buildings, which told Lu Deyang that he was close to his target location.

Although this location is just a stone's throw from Inner London, the river is stagnant, so reputable companies wouldn't choose to have their offices in such a poor environment.

There are only a few companies nearby on the map.

The riverbank can already be seen in the distance.

The faint countdown he heard made Lu Deyang feel uneasy.

Rather than believing he miscalculated, he was more inclined to believe that the Sicilians had played a trick, probably setting the bomb countdown ahead of time.

15 seconds or 40 seconds?
Or 10 seconds?
It's getting closer, very close now.

Seeing the guardrail by the river, Lu Deyang almost cursed. He could only try to slow down and drift, crashing into the guardrail with the car to stop.

The sounds from inside the bags grew faster and faster. Lu Deyang, who was barely able to stand, looked down and pulled on the handle that was tied together. The handle, which was already overburdened, tore off easily. He threw the two bags over the railing with a little force.

next second.

boom--

A huge explosion occurred on the television.

Many people were on tenterhooks.

Scotland Yard acted swiftly this time, sealing off the area immediately.

What exactly happened to Lu Deyang is the question that everyone is concerned about.

……

The moment the cordon was set up, they found Lu Deyang. It seemed that the situation was much better than they had imagined; at least he hadn't been blown to pieces.

They didn't dare to move until the ambulance arrived.

Judging by the power of the explosion, this person probably saved all the royal families in Europe and the best football stars in the world.

If he were to be injured a second time, not only the police inspector but also the superintendent would not be able to bear the responsibility.

Fortunately, the ambulance arrived quickly after the traffic control measures were implemented.

They breathed a sigh of relief when Lu Deyang was carried away.

If anything were to happen to them, none of the ones with the flower on their shoulders would escape.

St. Thomas Hospital
"Rapid breathing, 25 breaths per minute..."

"Extremely rapid heartbeat, heart rate approximately 130 beats per minute..."

"High fever, body temperature 39.5 degrees Celsius, coma, bilateral pupils 1.0 mm irregularly round, extremely sluggish pupillary light reflex, hyperactive tendon reflexes, high muscle tone in the limbs, suspected primary brainstem injury..."

"What should we do, Professor?"

"If you ask me what I need, I'll send it for a CT scan and an MRI."

When the princess arrived at the hospital, Lu Deyang was already providing emergency treatment.

"Doctor, how's it going?"

"He's out of danger now. He's been given medication to reduce swelling. Strangely, Dejan didn't suffer any blast injuries, but he does have punctate contusions and lacerations in the brainstem and diffuse axonal damage, so it's hard to say what will happen."

The old professor said.

"What do you mean, doctor?"

The princess asked.

The young doctor next to the professor explained, "Dejan fell from a great height and suffered several small hemorrhages in his brain, which caused him to fall into a coma. He needs some time to recover before he can wake up."

When will he wake up?

The princess pressed for an answer.

The professor shook his head and said, "It depends on the person."

Later, the hospital released information about Lu Deyang's condition.

This caused quite a stir. The entire incident was broadcast live on television, and Scotland Yard couldn't cover it up, so they simply revealed the truth to the public.

From discovery to handling, Lu Deyang almost single-handedly resolved the entire process.

He saved the lives of nearly 10 people at Wembley, including some of the best players in football over the past few decades and for the next 10 to 15 years, as well as European royalty and some national stars and political figures.

The television repeatedly showed footage of Lu Deyang rushing out of Wembley with a bomb all the way to the Floss River.

Almost all television news programs were broadcasting related news.

A spokesperson for the Italian Prime Minister's office immediately stated: "This incident is infuriating and heartbreaking. We wish Dejan a speedy recovery. After discussion, we have decided to take stronger measures and crack down on illegal violent organizations so that the people of the Apennines will no longer live in fear..."

The next day, there was also a deluge of reports.

The Times: "Great players possess great character. Dejan displayed Sherlock Holmes-like wisdom in this incident, and his courage and fearlessness impressed us deeply. In our review, Dejan made the best choices in almost every action. He immediately dug out the bomb and left the stadium, but did not reveal the truth to the fans gathered at the stadium entrance, thus avoiding greater panic. He then chose to head west, finally detonating the bomb in the Floss River, preventing public impact. It can be said that in this incident, there were no victims except Dejan. He saved 98,000 people at Wembley with his own body, he prevented 4 million citizens and tourists from being affected with his wisdom, and he bore everything with his body. We feel that even renaming Wembley Stadium to St. Dejan Stadium would not be enough to express his greatness."

The Daily Mail: "Van Basten revealed some details, which we will publish on page two. Dejan's wisdom and composure in the face of danger are astonishing."

The Financial Times: "Dejan's coma has turned Monica Burger locations around the world into the most crowded places. Experts predict that the brand, which belongs to Dejan and Monica, is ready to go public, and Dejan may have billions in assets before he wakes up."

Manchester Evening News: "Ferguson rushed to the hospital immediately after Dejan was injured."

The Sun: "David Beckham and Helen Sutherland's relationship is in crisis after a close friend of Sutherland revealed that Beckham was caught partying with his teammates at a nightclub."

Gazzetta dello Sport: "This is simply the biggest scandal ever. Another victim has emerged after Judge Falcone. As Sampdoria fans say, they'd rather Dejan hadn't been a hero. Italy or Europe doesn't need Dejan to repeatedly risk his life to save others. What we need to reflect on here is what the police and military are doing?"

Mundo Deportivo: "Cruyff was very shocked by this incident and expressed his hope that the Italian government would give everyone an explanation as soon as possible."

This day happened to be Lu Deyang's birthday.

Many British citizens and tourists spontaneously gathered outside the hospital and lit white candles, hoping that Lu Deyang could recover soon.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

The Pope appeared in St. Paul's Square and said: "I am appalled by the despicable horrific events that have occurred in London. When someone targets a football stadium, where there are only families, children, the sick, and athletes, it is a war. It is unjust. People always kill each other because of greed and arrogance. The emergence of heroes will lead us to an immortal glory."

In modern times, people often talk about freedom and courage, but today we truly witness what courage really means. It is gratifying that the spirit of courage and dedication still exists in this era. He strives for great and noble ideals, resisting temptation and never retreating in the face of difficulties. Dejan's actions also show us not to succumb to fear, for God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of sober mind. Here we bless Dejan, may God's grace be with you…”

……

"Sachiko?"

Lu Deyang looked at the spring water lying beside the bed and asked.

"Uh-huh?"

Sakai Izumi's eyes widened as she asked, "Tokuyo-kun, do you know me?"

"Yeah, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lu Deyang smiled and reached out, but felt a sudden weakness.

This action immediately made Izumi Sakai cover her mouth and cry silently.

Before long, the ward was packed with people.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. If you keep crying, people will think I'm dead," Lu Deyang said self-deprecatingly.

Monica quickly covered the princess's mouth, but she couldn't help but shed tears herself.

Lu Deyang asked with a headache, "How long was I unconscious?"

“Six months, but it’s been much longer. Because of diffuse axonal damage, your mobility and cognition have been affected since you woke up,” Monica said softly, sobbing.

Lu Deyang couldn't help but cover his head.

Seeing this, the three girls helped him put the hospital bed down.

Several days later, Lu Deyang finally understood the current situation.

1993 October.

A year and a half later.

Sampdoria didn't disband, but the situation isn't good either.

Boskov's son was tricked by the president of Rome and Mantovani Jr., so Boskov went to Rome, and Marco Lanna later went to Rome as well.

Vialli was sold to Juventus for $2000 million by Mantovani.

The team signed Gullit, who was unwanted by Milan, and the head coach is Eriksson.

The old chairman has woken up, but he has lost control of the team.

The only thing that made Lu Deyang feel gratified was that, with the help of the former chairman and some other people, Monica Burger's development was better than he had imagined, and it successfully went public.

The leader in the European fast food market has even expanded into Asia and South America.

I woke up one morning to find myself a restaurant tycoon.

They really had a tough time while Lu Qiuwang was in a coma.

When I first saw the news, I was impressed by the racing king's wife; now I see that the family of the baseball king is just as good.

If this happened to Icardi, his baby shower would probably have been over months ago.

Not long after, Lu Deyang met Mantovani.

Enrique Mantovani came over with a fruit basket and said, "Dejan, it's so good that you're awake. Everyone on the team and I have been very worried during this time. The team's performance has fluctuated because of your absence, and some sponsors have given up on us. The team's financial situation is not good right now..."

"Let's terminate the contract."

Lu Deyang said.

“That’s not what I meant, but a salary of $600 million is really too high. If you can recover, Sampdoria’s doors are always open to you.”

Enrique Mantovani said excitedly.

Lu Deyang didn't say much.

He knows what's going on the moment he opens his mouth.

They must have inquired about Lu Qiuwang's physical condition before they appeared.

No sooner had Mantovani left than Redondo knocked on the door and entered the ward, accompanied by Mancini.

"Why are you here again? Did you just finish training?"

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

"Of course we came to see you! We're Sampdoria boys!"

Mancini also said with a smile.

"Why did Gianluca transfer?"

Lu Deyang asked.

"Don't mention that traitor!" Mancini said irritably.

“He and the coach were both deceived,” Redondo explained.

Lu Deyang nodded.

It's normal for a rich kid who's always playing football to lose to a rich kid who's in business.

The president of Roma is quite shrewd; he deliberately tricked Boskov in order to find a new buyer for Roma's performance.

How is the team doing now?

Lu Deyang asked.

"This guy is a substitute now, he can't even compete with Gullit," Mancini mocked from the sidelines.

"That's because I wasn't serious."

Redondo argued somewhat anxiously, "Besides, I don't like that Swede either; his tactics are utterly boring."

"I heard that guy wants to sell the club and is negotiating with buyers. At this time, he wants to clear some salary burdens. I think Fernando will leave soon."

Mancini said in a low voice.

Despite the significant changes in the team, he still finds it difficult to adjust.

Redondo did not refute.

For more than a year, he visited Lu Deyang at the hospital almost every day.

In addition, he disliked the coach and the chairman, so he was not comfortable playing on the field.

"Don't worry, Dejan. I can easily find a team," Redondo quickly reassured Lu Dejan, afraid he might overthink things.

Lu Deyang smiled and nodded.

I chatted with them for a while and learned how much the team had changed.

Mantovani Jr. implemented a large-scale layoff of the team, even reducing the food available in the canteen.

The original plan to build a new stadium was also halted. Under the guise of a new coach, some high-priced players were sold off, and cheaper players were brought in.

This weakened Sampdoria's dominance in the league, as they lost 4 and drew 5 games in just 16 rounds.

"By the way, the English First Division has become the Premier League, and the British also announced that players who have played for Sampdoria for more than two years or Sampdoria youth players will not need to apply for a work permit to transfer to the Premier League."

Mancini said.

"Isn't it Italy?"

Lu Deyang asked with a smile.

This is clearly because of Lu Qiu Wang (King of Land Balls).

"Maybe they're afraid too many Italian players will transfer to England to play football. They don't even consider that nobody wants to go to England," Mancini complained.

Redondo pursed his lips.

He has a British football team in his next destination, and they have already reached a substantive stage of discussions.

After seeing the two people off, Lu Deyang lay back down on the bed.

I've been receiving too much information these past few days and I feel a bit tired.

Next, I'll need to do rehabilitation.

He roughly understands why he was injured.

He shouldn't have gotten out of the car.

If you throw the bag into the river while sitting in the car, you should be fine.

At the time, he wasn't thinking that much. After all, the situation was very serious and the countdown was on. It was really inconvenient to move around in the car, and he couldn't throw the bag over the guardrail.

However, the British should have borne some losses in this matter, and the Suzuki Group, they made a fortune.

……

Lu Deyang's contract termination with Sampdoria has sparked protests from many fans.

On television, Mantovani Jr. said with a forced smile, "Dejan is concerned about the team's situation. The team's performance is currently unstable, and more money needs to be invested in the team's operations. Moreover, we have not closed the door to Dejan's return, and he is always welcome back to the Ferraris Stadium..."

"He's really hypocritical."

The princess complained.

Monica and Sachiko Kamachi nodded in agreement.

Her English has improved considerably during this period.

“I was just reading the newspaper, and it kept making fun of you as my family member, Ms. Spencer,” Lu Deyang joked.

"You saved their whole family, what else can they do?"

The princess said nonchalantly.

“By the way, Fernando just called to ask you how Manchester United is doing?” Monica said.

"Manchester United, that's great."

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Ferguson's team will win everything."

Bristol Palace Hotel, Genoa.

Ferguson, who had just seen Redondo off, poured himself a glass of wine and then poured one for club president Martin Eduardo.

“You heard that, didn’t you? Dejan has already started his rehabilitation,” Ferguson said.

“Yes, that’s really good news, otherwise Bobby and the others would have been worried all along,” Eduardo said.

Charlton and his friends were also at Wembley Stadium at the time.

With a football event of this scale in Britain, it's impossible for English football legends not to attend.

"What I mean is, how about we sign Dejan?" Ferguson said excitedly. "Didn't Sampdoria terminate their contract with Dejan?"

Eduardo looked at the team's head coach with some hesitation and said, "Isn't it a bit risky to sign Dejan at this time? It's still a question whether he can return to his previous level."

"Damn Martin, if Dejan is fully recovered, will we even be in the running? Can you come up with $600 million?" Ferguson slammed his fist on the table and shouted excitedly. "Sometimes life requires a little risk. Dejan would definitely like to play with Redondo. Redondo is hesitant to agree because he has doubts about England. But if we sign Dejan, we can sign Redondo. At least Redondo is very strong, isn't he? And even if Dejan doesn't recover to his best level, as long as he returns to the pitch, with his mind, he will definitely be one of the best players."

Martin Eduardo tapped his fingers repeatedly on the table.

As the chairman of a club, he wasn't as impulsive as Ferguson.

But Ferguson's point is valid. They made a special trip to Genoa during the season to sign Redondo, who was in poor form, hoping he could bring changes to Manchester United's midfield.

If he were Lu Deyang at his peak, he wouldn't even hesitate.

Although there are still doubts, the temptation is still very strong.

"Damn Martin, sign Dejan, give him a five-year contract, and if he doesn't play well, I'll compensate the team with my salary!" Ferguson shouted impatiently.

Martin Eduardo nodded.

It wasn't because of what Ferguson said.

Instead, he thought of Lu Deyang's commercial value.

Even if Lu Deyang hasn't fully recovered, it's impossible for those brands to not come knocking on his door.

Just like them, some people will also want to buy at the bottom.

Moreover, there are quite a few people who owe Lu Deyang favors.

Even the Vatican occasionally chimes in with its opinions.

Thinking about this, Eduardo couldn't help but mock Mantovani, saying that the guy would probably never understand how to run a team.

As long as there is an endorsement contract, Lu Deyang's salary will not be a loss.

"I'm leaving this to you. Aren't you quite familiar with him?"

"Eduardo said."

He knew that staying wouldn't make any difference and might even have the opposite effect, so he figured it was better to leave everything to Ferguson.

1994 1 Month 1 Day.

In the press conference room of Dream Theater, after the symbolic signing and exchange of contracts...

Redondo stood to Ferguson's left with a smile, holding up the number 5 jersey. To Ferguson's right was Lu Deyang, who was sitting in a wheelchair and holding up the number 7 jersey.

After a brief appearance.

Martin Eduardo, beaming with pride, told reporters, "I'm sitting here today with immense excitement to announce that we've signed Dejan Damjanovic to the highest salary in the Premier League. Alex and I were shocked and heartbroken when we heard he was released by Sampdoria, and we immediately finalized this plan because we both believe that God will not let us down, and Dejan will eventually return to the pitch. Whether it takes a year, two years, or even longer, we are willing to wait for Dejan's recovery. A five-year contract reflects our commitment. During Dejan's recovery, the club will pay his full salary and all bonuses because we are Manchester United, and this is what an English team should do. London teams should have done it long ago; if they don't, we will. Manchester United is a socially responsible team. Manchester United is more than just a club..."

Monaco.

Arsène Wenger's face stiffened upon seeing the news. He had finally convinced the Kings and the club's management to sign Ludjohnsen, only to have someone else beat him to it.
Galliani, watching the live broadcast on TV, angrily threw the remote control, which hit the TV screen and scattered batteries all over the floor. At that moment, the phone rang. After answering it, he rudely interrupted the other person a few seconds later and cursed, "You son of a bitch, why would I buy Sampdoria if Dejan didn't exist?"

In the Sampdoria youth team dormitory, Gianluigi Buffon watched the news on TV, his eyes instantly turning red. He had waited so long, and Dejan had gone to Manchester United…
