I AM the Football Star

Finally... everyone knows that Lu Yang is about to have a huge sum of cash leveraged out from the film industry!

Business people know the power of this amount of cash.

It’s leverage!

Should the Russell Group face unforeseen circumstances in this real estate battle, Lu Yang might become one of Russell’s aces.

Business is like a battlefield, and this cake is too big, thus the risks are incredibly high. Russell has already noticed some ”allies” making small moves.

Some of these allies might be in talks with capital behind clubs interested in San Remo players, engaging in cross-border cooperation and fulfilling mutual needs. The power is so great that they can even hunt industry giants and capital behemoths!

Subsequently, Russell dialed the Florence chairman’s phone number.

Player transactions can be done by the sports director, but if the chairman wants to get involved, everyone else is more than happy to assist.

”Russell, you’re calling me directly? Why? Is it because of Versachi? We really need him, and we haven’t resorted to any despicable means...”

The Florence chairman immediately stated his position.

We are allies, we are allies!

We haven’t made Versachi go on strike, spread rumors everywhere, use fans and public opinion, etc.

This is a legitimate transaction.

”You... don’t worry, although I’m quite angry about this, Versachi indeed has a special connection to the Purple Lily. Thanks to Sotu and Lu Yang’s guidance, I’ve come to terms with it.” Russell said, ”Deal.”

”Oh my, Russell, think about it a bit more. We really can’t offer anything more, at most a few youth players... Wait, what did you say? Deal? My God, am I seeing things? A deal?” The Florence chairman stammered in excitement.

In the eyes of the Purple Lily people, Versachi is not only the champion piece but also the Purple Lily successor!

Versachi to Florence is like Sogel to San Siro.

Their return is a tradition!

It reconnects with the fans, extends the team spirit, and has a spiritual guiding role that athletic achievements can never match!

”Fifteen million, plus a few youth players, that’s what you said! Besides, you must give me a few latest limited edition Gucci bags; my daughter has been demanding them for a while now!” Russell said.

”No problem, leave it to me, is five enough?” The Florence chairman wished he could call Carrel immediately.

”Wait!” Lu Yang suddenly spoke.

The Florence chairman was taken aback; was this Lu Yang’s voice?

This... could the deal suddenly change?

”You’re Lu? What’s the matter? This deal...”

”The deal is fine, but I have one request.” Lu Yang interrupted the Florence chairman, ”I request that this deal be announced only after Cortino and Perotti have made their debut on the field.”

”At that time, Florence must hold a separate debut ceremony for Versachi, with Carrel attending, and have Carrel crown Versachi with a symbolic Prince’s Crown!”

Lu Yang made a particularly demanding request.

After saying this, he looked at Russell.

Russell immediately added, ”Yes, that’s our request. We hope Florence can treat Versachi as a treasure because that’s how we regard him.”

”He must receive the treatment he deserves! Otherwise, we’ll keep him in San Remo and crown him with the crown belonging to San Remo!”

Is this request difficult?

Yes!

Where is it difficult?

Is it the announcement timing and the debut ceremony?

No!

Is it Carrel’s schedule?

No, either!

It’s the Prince’s Crown and the ceremony!

This is practically designating Versachi as the next monarch of the Purple Lily!

If you’re a brother, then send you back to ascend the throne!

Lu Yang’s maneuver here is truly impressive!

Carrel might stay in Florence for another two or three years, depending on the situation.

After two or three years, a new king will be born here.

Perotti left Samp for this reason.

But now, Lu Yang wants to resolve this crisis in advance, at least give Versachi an official reputation.

Also let his start in the Purple Lily be as smooth as possible.

As for Demon Blade Perotti... sorry, between competing for the crown and becoming a club leader, you can only choose one.

Otherwise, you can go back to your sailor and struggle in the relegation zone.

Since you’ve left the sailor, you must have the consciousness of playing a supporting role, or else the only thing waiting for you is wandering.

This is somewhat cruel to Perotti, but he has no choice but to learn to accept it.

With Carrel around, Perotti can’t and won’t cause turmoil in Purple Lily.

After two or three years, Versachi will rise significantly, and succession will be a matter of course.

Perotti has no way to avoid this loss.

”It seems Versachi has indeed been doing well at San Remo. Thank you for considering everything for the Purple Lily’s children, I am willing to agree to this condition.” The Florence chairman agreed to the condition through gritted teeth.

Whether the Purple Lily can reverse fate depends on whether they can win the championship this season and next!

Soon, the Purple Lily pushed forward Perotti and Cortino’s joint debut.

The two appeared on the field at the same time, but whether reporter or supporter, there were significantly more around Perotti than Cortino.

On this day, he enjoyed superstar treatment.

Some media even called him the new king of Purple Lily!

This title is clearly more satisfying to Perotti than ”Demon Blade.”

However, the next day, Purple Lily and San Remo jointly released the latest transfer announcement.
