Chapter 253: The First Meeting Between the Chairman and the Coach
Before finding trouble with Soler, Chang Sheng must first get rid of the sad player in front of him.
So he patted his chest and assured Reyes that he would never sell him.
"You were recruited from Sevilla by name, Jose. I expected you to give your all on the pitch. How could I possibly sell you?"
"Really? Coach? Are you really not going to sell me?"
Reyes' voice on the phone was full of relief and joy.
Chang Sheng hummed. "Of course, you are an important member of the team, and I will never sell an important member of the team."
If Ibrahimovic, Mendieta, and Aimar heard Chang Sheng's words, they would probably be so angry that they would scold their mothers, "The devil will believe you!"
However, Reyes' trust in Chang Sheng is obviously extraordinary.
Before Mista came to the team, he was the team's most winning reputation
tallest player.
Since Chang Sheng said that he is an important member, he must be an important member.
The head coach didn't want to sell him, the head coach didn't even know it.
In this regard, Reyes was relieved.
As long as the head coach doesn't sincerely want to sell him, that's fine.
Chang Sheng continued: "If it's really time to negotiate a contract with you, you know what to do, Jose?"
Reyes nodded: "I know, refuse them!"
Chang Sheng smiled.
After finishing Reyes, Chang Sheng thought about it, and then called Torla.
Since Soler is selling his players secretly, he will expose them.
※※※
The next day, the "Provincial Daily" published a striking news.
"Reyes is infinitely close to Arsenal! "
The news told the Valencia fans in a surprised tone,
They could lose Reyes this winter!
It is said that many clubs are competing for Valencia's current main right winger Reyes.
"... We have received information from well-informed sources that the Valencia club is discussing the intention to sell Reyes with the Arsenal club... It is said that the two clubs have almost reached an agreement. If there is no accident, Reyes will be in the Move to Arsenal this winter!"
"Provincial Gazette" is the official mouthpiece of Valencia, and all the news they report about Valencia is very authentic, so in the eyes of people who care about Valencia, the news of "Provincial Gazette" is the most valuable of.
I have to say that Soler's confidentiality work is really good.
When the "Provincial Daily" exposed the news. Many people were surprised - Reyes performed very well in the team this season, and many people began to look forward to Reyes being selected for the Spanish national team and Vicente to form Spain's "bat wings".
After contributing the main midfielder combination to the Spanish national team, Valencia will contribute to the winger combination again.
Such an excellent young player should obviously keep him and let him continue to grow.
How can there be any reason to sell it just after it is printed?
For a while, countless calls and questions flew to the Valencia club.
Fans left messages on Valencia's official website asking why the Valencia club wanted to sell Reyes.
In addition, Chang Sheng also received many calls from reporters asking for interviews or asking about the situation.
Because everyone knows that Valencia's transfer power is controlled by Chang Sheng. This is what confuses many people.
Chang Sheng and Reyes have a good relationship. This is not news locally in Valencia. Although in the early years, when Chang Sheng was coaching Getafe, he asked his players to shovel Reyes' feet. But now the two of them have long since settled their suspicions, as if that incident never happened at all.
Changsheng attaches great importance to Reyes. Otherwise, he wouldn't have poached him from Seville when he was seventeen.
In the past few years, I have been carefully training him and always giving him opportunities to play. Although most of them are substitutes, there are many opportunities to play, and the intention of training him to improve him is obvious.
With Changsheng's respect for Reyes. How could he possibly sell Reyes?
But if it wasn't Chang Sheng who sold Reyes, who would it be?
In an interview with reporters, Chang Sheng claimed that he knew nothing about the matter, and only after listening to the reports from the reporters did he know that his love would be put on the transfer list.
"This is ridiculous. How could I possibly sell my man? Reyes is important to the team and I will not let him go. I think I need to look into this matter... Help me tell those who are right The team that Reyes is interested in, I will never sell Reyes, he is not for sale of the team. I don't care what agreement you have reached in private, my players will never leave!"
※※※
Then everyone's investigation came out quickly.
Sorel did it!
Chang Sheng just said that he would never let Reyes leave, and there was news that the person who wanted to sell Reyes was the chairman of the club.
It's lively.
The club president and head coach are going to face off directly!
The relationship between Soler and Chang Sheng has never been harmonious. Everyone knows this in Valencia.
Chang Sheng was assigned to the Otti faction.
However, since Soler came to power, it seemed that the two were living in peace and there was no conflict.
Perhaps Soler also realized that it is necessary for a team to have an excellent head coach, so he fired the club's general manager Pittaqi. Chang Sheng did not move.
As long as Soler can live in peace with Chang Sheng, it will be Valencia's greatest luck.
Anyway, apart from Chang Sheng, who can predict the future, other Valencia fans still have expectations and confidence in Soler.
The Soler family is a well-known Valencia supporter in the local area. Soler is rich and loves the club. There is simply no better club president!
As for Chang Sheng, he is also the most suitable head coach for Valencia.
As long as the two people cooperate sincerely. It will definitely make Valencia a glorious decade!
Every Valencia fan has dreams like this.
But the reality is cruel. The two sides fought head-to-head so quickly.
Chang Sheng claimed that he did not know that Reyes was put on the transfer list, and he warned those who were interested in Reyes and the team not to act rashly, he would never let Reyes leave.
So how would Sorel respond?
Soler's response was simple: "As the president of the club, I think I have this right. The club is deeply in debt and each of us must find a way to help the club out of the predicament."
Apparently, he believes selling players is an effective solution to debt.
Chang Sheng sneered at this: "Any team that starts to sell its main players is doomed to decline. I don't think Valencia has reached the point where it needs to sell its main players to survive. My transfer budget is not much every year. The relegation from the league championship, the relegation from the Champions League, and the TV broadcast money I didn't touch, all went to the club. Selling players is not what an ambitious chairman should do."
He spoke mercilessly, pointing out that Sorel had no ambitions.
Such a face-to-face accusation of the club chairman, without any consideration for saving some face for Soler, disappointed many people who still imagined that the two would work together sincerely.
This is the naked reality.
There is no way Soler and Chang Sheng can shake hands!
Some media lamented: "This is really a strange thing. If the head coach has opinions and suggestions on the club chairman, shouldn't he call the chairman? And the club chairman wants to sell a player, or has something to do with the team. If he has any ideas, shouldn't he communicate with the coach first? We don't see this at all in Valencia. The two people use the media to talk to each other as if they don't know each other. If they sit down Talk face-to-face, maybe this kind of problem can't be solved in front of us at all. But obviously, neither of them wants to solve the problem in private... I think Valencia may play next season. It will become very difficult to fight because of this..."

Regarding Chang Sheng's claim that he would not let Reyes go, Sorel didn't take it seriously.
This is Spain, not England. Even if this is England, it doesn't matter. From a legal point of view, the chairman of the club has ownership of the club, and he has the right to expel anyone here.
So there is no problem for him to sell his players, and no one can stop him. Even if this person is the meritorious coach of the team, he has no power, let alone stop the chairman.
In fact, let alone selling a player, even if it is selling the entire club, it is the chairman who has the final say.
So no matter how loud Chang Sheng yelled, Sorel didn't say a word except for a few words in response.
He knew that there was no need for him to go out and start a scolding battle with Chang Sheng. In terms of scolding, he was really not Chang Sheng's opponent.
But he can smack Chang Sheng's face with practical actions.
Didn't you say that the entire Valencia football team is your territory? Didn't you say that no one can touch you? Didn't you say that Reyes is not for sale and cannot be sold?
Now, I'll sell it to you!
So he continued to implement his plan in silence and low-key.
Soon Valencia and Arsenal reached an agreement on the transfer fee, and Soler sold Reyes for 18 million euros.
A player who has only been the main player for half a season, sold for so much money, Soler thinks it is very good.
Arsenal were then informed that they could now negotiate a personal contract with Reyes.
Sorel sneered and waited to see Chang Sheng make a fool of himself.
I don't know what expression he will have when he sees Reyes wearing the Arsenal jersey... I really want to see it!
※※※
Before the sneer on Sorel's face dissipated, he saw the eye-catching headline of the "Provincial Newspaper" the next day.
"Reyes: Refuse to transfer to Arsenal, I will not leave Valencia! "
His sneer froze.
