Chapter 679 Change of Dynasty

he?

Dong Fangzhuo looked in the direction of the old guard and seemed to see a very familiar figure.

That guy with blond hair and a suit and tie seems to be...

Moyes?

"Farke."

"What is he doing here?" Although Dong Fangzhuo realized something immediately, he still asked.

"well……"

The doorman sighed and did not answer immediately. Instead, he held the door and almost stood on tiptoes to look at Moyes.

"It is said that he is here to negotiate a contract with the boss."

The guard withdrew his distant gaze and focused it on Dong Fangzhuo again. He seemed to want to see Dong Fangzhuo's reaction now.

Moyes is the coach of Everton. What else can he do when he comes to Manchester United? It can't be talking to Ferguson about acquiring Smith. Smith left in early July and transferred to Newcastle United. He has already said goodbye. Manchester United.

Manchester United doesn't have the striker Moyes wants now, unless he wants to pack Solskjaer away, but how old is Solskjaer...

There is only one possibility, Ferguson may actually retire.

Throughout July, in addition to talking about Ronaldo's transfer to Real Madrid, there was also talk about Ferguson's retirement. Cristiano Ronaldo successfully put on the No. 9 jersey of Real Madrid, but Ferguson's future is still undecided.

If Ferguson really retires, it will be 6 years earlier than before. All this is incredible.

Is Ferguson really willing to do this?

Moyes' car slowly drove out from the door, and Dong Fangzhuo drove in.

He did not go to the training ground, but went to Ferguson's office...

※※※※

"This is a well-thought-out decision," Ferguson said, sitting in the office with his left hand covering his chin, sincerely communicating with Dong Fangzhuo.

"I think now is the best time to leave. The new coach will be much more comfortable taking over the rising Manchester United. At least, I am not leaving a mess, but a Manchester United full of vitality and vitality. I have also thought about it. I will work for another five or six years, but by then I will be over 70, and I hope to spend more time with my grandchildren."

Ferguson, who was born in 1941, is only 66 years old this year. Is he very old? He is not old at all, and many coaches really coach wealthy clubs at this age. But this is not really a matter of age. What Ferguson said actually makes sense.

If you stay for a few years, it will just be a few more league titles, maybe the Champions League, or maybe nothing. Anyway, history has changed a long time ago, and Dong Fangzhuo no longer knows what will happen in the future.

Dong Fangzhuo remained silent and did not speak. Ferguson looked at him from time to time, and then talked about the new coach.

"David is good, very stable, and has his own ideas for team building. I can't find a better candidate in England."

David is not bad... Dong Fangzhuo murmured in his heart, suddenly thinking of Moyes' words of "eternal injustice".

In fact, Moyes is really capable, but the timing of his appearance was wrong. No one could clean up the mess left when Sir Alex Ferguson left.

In fact, when Sir Alex Ferguson left Manchester United in 2013, many problems that had been covered up were completely exposed. Neither Moyes nor Van Gaal could turn the tide.

Dong Fangzhuo really wants to say that he should stay and lead Manchester United to three consecutive championships and then reach several Champions League finals.

However, when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again. Who could he convince Ferguson to do this? He had the right to choose and live his own life. Maybe this is how the world should be here.

It's just that I am unbalanced in my heart.

"An official announcement will be made tomorrow morning."

Ferguson suddenly said this.

"Oh," Dong Fangzhuo just responded, not knowing what to say anymore. Ferguson's Manchester United was about to go away, and he actually only won the championship once with Sir Alex Ferguson!

It's really God's will...

Ferguson glanced at him, knowing that Dong Fangzhuo was very disappointed, and comforted him: "After Moyes moves to Manchester United, he will definitely build the team with you as the core, and he will not deprive you of the captain's armband..."

"I'm not worried about this." Dong Fangzhuo replied quietly, "I'm just thinking about how much impact your departure will have on Manchester United. It may be irreparable."

"Don't worry, after I leave, Moyes will sign several very capable players. The overall framework of the team will still not change."

…

At 5 pm on August 1, London time, Manchester United officially announced through the club’s official website that Ferguson has officially retired. Ferguson then held a press conference.

"For me, I need to leave when the team is at its strongest, and I think now is the right time. This team has just won five championships, and the age structure of the team is also relatively reasonable. The young players have grown up. The team’s momentum is also very good, which can guarantee the team a bright future in the coming period.”

“Our training facilities are some of the best in the world and our home stadium at Old Trafford is one of the most famous in the world. As for the future, I’m delighted to be taking on a mentoring and ambassadorial role. With these activities, including me other interests and I’m looking forward to the future.”

“I have to express my gratitude to my family, whose love and support has been so important to me. My wife Kathy has always played an important role in my coaching career, providing me with confidence and encouragement. Words cannot do it. Totally expresses how much this means to me.”

"In my early days, the support of the board, especially Sir Bobby Charlton, gave me the confidence and time to build my own club, not just a team. Over the past 20 years, Manchester United has given me A platform that allows me to reach my full potential. I feel so honored. I'm so grateful for it all."

"To the fans, thank you. I have been truly touched by your support over the years. It is an honor and privilege for me to have the opportunity to coach your beloved club and I will always cherish my experience coaching Manchester United. Time.”

Then, the whole of English and European football exploded.

"Hey, Manchester United has really changed."

“Ferguson actually retired early!”

"It's like I'm dreaming. This kind of thing will really happen. Wenger and Mourinho are probably laughing in their dreams, right? There will never be a Ferguson in the Premier League again."

The saddest thing is the Manchester United fans.

"Ouch,"

"What will happen to Manchester United in the future?"

"Who else can lead Manchester United to the title?"

"Why did he leave so suddenly?"

"Did the Glazer family drive him away? Because selling Ronaldo chilled Ferguson's heart and made him decide to retire?"

"Who will be the coach to replace Ferguson? Manchester United has almost no time to prepare for the new season!"

An hour later, Manchester United held another press conference.

Manchester United officially announced that Moyes took over as the Red Devils coach and the two parties signed a six-year long-term contract with a total contract value of 30 million pounds. In other words, Moyes' annual salary is 5 million pounds.

As soon as the news of Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement came out, the new coach was announced immediately, which surprised many foreign media.

Moyes and Ferguson already have a lot in common, and perhaps Moyes is really Ferguson's natural successor. They were both from Glasgow, believed in old-fashioned values ​​of hard work, loved horse racing and, more importantly, were both good at running a team.

Moyes also quickly adapted to his new job. He spoke at a press conference: "I am very grateful to the Glazer family and Manchester United fans for choosing me to be the successor of the great Ferguson. I will do my best to lead Manchester United. Keep moving forward, please trust me, I will definitely bring you more surprises."

"Although the new season is very close, we still have not stopped operating in the transfer market. We will..."

Inside the Carrington base, the sky had already darkened.

Dong Fangzhuo sat on the bench beside the training ground and looked at Solskjaer quietly in the training ground.

Ferguson is gone, and he has just announced a decision that he is leaving and retiring.

Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer retired after his mentor retired...

well,

It's been an eventful summer.

Dong Fangzhuo kept shaking his head.

"Dong,"

"Are you there too?"

Dong Fangzhuo turned his head, and Giggs, Scholes, and Neville also came to the training ground at some unknown time, as if they had made an appointment together...
