Cao Baiming’s gaze was fixed on the name written on it. Although there were five names written, the rest were crossed out, leaving only the clearest words, Nottingham Forest, in his field of vision.
After a few seconds, he was surprised that this sense of familiarity had quietly increased. Looking at this opponent, Cao Baiming even felt it was his own team, and a sense of honor had already developed.
That’s right, it had to be him, because the feeling was right!
At this moment, the system’s voice sounded in Cao Baiming’s mind again, so sudden and caught off guard.
“Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a new season mission. Completing the mission can unlock a new season grand prize package! Mission objective: Join the team Nottingham Forest!”
Cao Baiming’s eyes flickered, and his heart was filled with excitement. The system was finally not giving him difficult tasks to trouble him anymore. This time, it was exactly as he had imagined.
However, given the system’s usual playful nature, it should have at least asked him to transfer to a team like Everton.
It was the first time it had been so obedient, which was surprising!
“No problem, accept the mission!”
Although he didn’t know what the new season grand prize package was, he needed these things even more at this moment. It was still a bit difficult to defeat the Manchester United team he had built with his own hands. Although the team hadn’t been truly established yet, it was completely foreseeable in the near future.
The blue sky had gradually changed from sky blue to dark blue, even a bit of cyan-dark blue. The moon in the sky was obscured by a small cloud, and a halo appeared around it.
The stars in the night sky could only be seen scattered. Perhaps the city’s light pollution had obscured the brilliance that should have been in the sky, making the entire night sky less pure, or perhaps there simply weren’t that many stars.
Cao Baiming looked up, and through the window, he saw the appearance of the night sky. At this moment, his mood instantly became much lighter. It was a sense of peace, a safe picture composed of gray concrete buildings and a deep blue sky. In this picture, the only splash of bright color was the orange-yellow light emanating from the room.
With the transfer matters settled, Cao Baiming unhesitatingly sent a text message to Mike. The content of the message was not much, only five words.
Nottingham Forest! He simply wrote the team’s name in the content field, and when Mike saw the message, he immediately understood his intention.
His boss had finally confirmed his next destination.
However, as Cao Baiming’s manager, Mike had just helped him handle the team acquisition matters. Now, Cao Baiming was not only a player but also the owner of a team, which made Mike confused about his own identity.
Looking at the 500,000 pounds that had just appeared in his account, Mike immediately dismissed the thought.
What was there to think about? Wasn’t it enough to make money? Where else could he work and earn more than he did now? Mike was indeed a capable person, and even he knew it very well. No matter what job he did, he could do it well. Even if he started his own business, he could create something, but after much thought, he was not confident that he could earn more money than he did now. After all, following Cao Baiming meant good things.
The outside world was still digesting the series of major news that had occurred in the past period, and it was far from over.
The Champions League final, Arsenal’s huge victory, Manchester City’s internal transfer rumors, Haaland’s personal injury, the feud between Max and Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United’s ownership issue, and Cao Baiming’s successful takeover of Manchester United to become the team’s major owner… and then the news that Cao Baiming and Messi might both leave Arsenal. At this moment, the fans felt that the speed of news breaking in the outside world was like firecrackers, one after another. Even fans who had always been accustomed to maintaining a calm heart amidst such complex information were completely unable to suppress their emotions at this moment.
What was going on lately? Such big news could be revealed continuously, and these were all nuclear-level events!
At this moment, although the club had not yet officially responded to the latest news, it had already spread among the fans, reaching a point where everyone knew about it.
Although some people didn’t believe it, when they thought carefully about how likely it was that Cao Baiming would actually stay at Arsenal, it didn’t seem very high.
However, Messi was also planning to leave. Where would he go after he left? And whether he and Cao Baiming had discussed it had become the topic that fans discussed the most. Because there was no answer, this uncertainty made people more excited and more willing to bring it up.
As loyal Arsenal fans, they had made preparations to switch teams to support. Because Arsenal had fallen into despair at this time, even though the next season had not yet begun, the fans seemed to have already seen the outcome.
It couldn’t possibly get better than this. They had lost two key players at once, and both of them were absolute mainstays of the team. If one asked why they had achieved such excellent results last season, there was no doubt that at least sixty percent of the credit belonged to these two men.
Now that they were gone, what was left of the team? One Henry plus an empty shell.
As Arsenal fans, they had already prepared for the worst. They thought that Henry would eventually leave the team, perhaps next season, or perhaps after his contract expired, because Henry’s contract would be for one more year than theirs.
Like Cao Baiming, Messi was also actively considering his next plans during this period. The most important thing was which team he would play for.
For Messi, he was already at this age and only wanted his career to be glorious in his remaining time, without any flaws or regrets.
At the same time, he also wanted to earn some retirement money during this last period, so that his later years could be peaceful, happy, and fulfilling.
Messi would naturally look for a strong team, a team with a certain level of strength. He couldn’t be like Cao Baiming, who specifically went for weak teams. He naturally understood Cao Baiming’s approach, but it didn’t mean he would do the same.
