Chapter 98 The Distant Quarrel

The impact of Burton Albion reaching the FA Cup final is not yet over.

No matter how big a move they made before, they could only generate some response in a few limited places.

But after defeating West Ham United and Arsenal in succession to reach the FA Cup final, they are now in the spotlight throughout England.

A young head coach, young players, and the possibility of promotion to the Premier League this season have brought Burton Albion to the attention of more people.

If they do get promoted or win the FA Cup, it will undoubtedly bring them even more attention.

It's not unprecedented for a Championship team to win the FA Cup.

Wigan Athletic and Birmingham City did it back in the day.

However, it is very rare for a team like Li Yanqing's, where both the coach and the players are young, to be so well-rounded.

At this moment, inside a villa.

The television was broadcasting news about Burton Albion advancing to the FA Cup final.

"Zlatan, we have a good place to go."

"The Galaxy team is still willing to take you in, even though you have just recovered from a serious injury."

"And the salary is pretty good..."

On the sofa, Raiola, who hadn't been seen for a long time, was talking to Ibrahimovic, who was lying there.

"No, I'm not that short of money anymore, Mino."

Ibrahimovic shook his head and then looked at his agent, whom he considered family.

"Don't you really know what I'm thinking?"

“Of course I know.” Raiola gave a wry smile.

"Go to Burton? Go find that Chinese guy, just because of that ridiculous agreement?"

"Please, you're already quite old, don't make things difficult for me."

"The Galaxy is a good place to go; their owner and I have a good relationship..."

“That’s not funny, Mino.” Ibrahimovic suddenly put on a serious expression.

"I'm quite curious to know how that guy Li leads the team."

"Last year they were a Championship relegation team, and this year they're almost winning the FA Cup."

"And they have a good chance of being upgraded."

"Let's wait and see. If they don't get promoted to the Premier League, then I'll go to the Galaxy."

"No rush to sign the contract."

“Think about what happened last time you disobeyed me?” Raiola made a helpless expression.

The last time Ibrahimovic didn't listen to him was when Mourinho wanted him to go to Manchester United.

"Top leagues are not suitable for retirement, Zlatan."

"You spent six months at Old Trafford and ended up getting seriously injured."

"This has already delayed many of our plans."

"I agreed last time because the other party was José Mourinho."

"But that Chinese kid is definitely not as good as Ruozie."

"What if you get even more seriously injured?"

"It's okay, I'm ready." Ibu stretched his body and grinned as he spoke.

"You know me, I never force myself."

"I also believe I still have the ability to compete in top leagues!"

"If it doesn't work out, I will ask to leave myself."

"If they get promoted, I'll definitely go to Burton Albion."

"Mino, this is a man's promise!"

"Unless... Milan tells me now that they still need me."

"Otherwise, I won't give up."

"Milan?" Raiola's expression became even more interesting.

Ibrahimovic was referring to AC Milan, where he had a very successful career.

"Milan is in more danger; they have more games to play..."

"Alright." Seeing that Ibrahimovic had already made his decision, Raiola knew that she couldn't persuade him otherwise.

"It's the same now. As long as you've thought it through, I won't stop you."

"But you need to think this through..."

"I've made up my mind, Mino!"

"Okay, I'll personally sign the contract for you then."

"At least I can't let you get hurt again!"

......

Meanwhile, Mourinho was also on the phone with Li Yanqing.

"I didn't expect... Li, that was a really great match."

"Could you sell it to me, that young man named Enzo?"

"Quinn could also..."

He's having a tough time at Manchester United right now, as the team seems to have little hope of winning the title this year.

In the FA Cup, they also reached the semi-finals, but lost to Chelsea.

In the league, they were completely dominated by Manchester City and Liverpool.

More importantly, Manchester United's season has now come to an end with a multitude of injured players.

McTominay, the young player promoted last year, has gradually become a key defensive midfielder, but he still lacks some ability and doesn't seem as effective as Enzo.

“That won’t do, José.”

“They are all the cornerstones of my team and the most important part of the team.”

"When I go to the Premier League, I'll still have to rely on them."

Li Yanqing will not sell them to Arsenal, nor will he sell them to Manchester United.

However, if someone is willing to raise the price...

Bah, we can't sell it even if we raise the price.

"Okay, anyway, congratulations."

"Play well in the next game."

"If you can win the FA Cup, you will definitely be the hottest manager in England this year."

"Maybe a Premier League club will be willing to give you a chance."

"No, José, Burton's goal is promotion!" Li Yanqing once again denied Mourinho's words.

"We will become a Premier League team ourselves, and we'll see you on the pitch again next season!"

"Great, I look forward to that day..."

Mourinho's feelings were somewhat complicated.

He actually started to feel a little envious of Li Yanqing.

The opposing team seems to have gained absolute power at Burton, in everything from dressing room management to player transfers...

He, on the other hand, had to deal with a CEO who basically didn't listen to him.

There's also a bunch of players who don't listen to him.

Pogba, Martial, Lingard...

Now there's another player, Sanchez, who's on the team's highest salary but is completely out of form.

He had a premonition that his managerial career at Manchester United was nearing its end...
