King Of World Football

Chapter 656: Win Against Me, and I'll Go!

As the holiday approached, Real Madrid, as usual, organized a Christmas luncheon, where the football and basketball teams gathered together. Many high-ranking Real Madrid officials, including Florentino, also attended.

When Wang Feng appeared at the entrance of the restaurant, the waiting reporters immediately raised their cameras and began snapping photos wildly. The Chinese superstar seemed to be in a good mood and even posed for a few photos.

With his handsome face and light-colored casual suit, he exuded a bit of a supermodel vibe, making many people couldn't help but marvel.

Florentino personally welcomed him, and Wang Feng quickly stepped forward to greet him. The two smiled and embraced before entering the restaurant together.

Ancelotti and Zidane were also present. Ramos had already turned on his "social" mode early on, moving between various groups and appearing very friendly.

Wang Feng, however, was not as enthusiastic. He only chatted with familiar teammates, but many people came over to greet him, including many high-ranking officials.

"Wang, can we chat for a moment?" Di Maria walked up to the Chinese superstar and said softly.

He nodded, and the two found a quiet corner to talk. The Argentine star seemed a bit low-key as he said, "I might be leaving the team next summer, so I wanted to tell you beforehand."

"Why so sudden?" Wang Feng was surprised and hurriedly asked.

Di Maria smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The contract renewal negotiations have always been difficult. Obviously, my position in Florentino's heart is not high, and as you know, there's a lot of tactical overlap between me and Bale."

"Is there anything I can do? Shall we go talk to the coach together, or maybe I can suggest something to Florentino?" Wang Feng felt very reluctant to see the Argentine leave like this; his ability was significant for the team.

"Thank you," Di Maria shook his head, "Maybe a change of environment wouldn't be bad, and the salary would be higher."

The Chinese superstar couldn't help but fall silent. Indeed, it seemed to be the case for Di Maria. Having won La Liga and the Champions League, it was perfectly reasonable for him to pursue a higher salary now.

So he patted the Argentine's shoulder, "Then, before you leave, let's win another championship!"

Di Maria nodded heavily, "That's what I'm thinking too."

Although the La Liga winter break was relatively short, Wang Feng had a lot of activities to complete, mainly related to sponsorship endorsements with the Abu Dhabi consortium. Until today, they remained the largest endorsement contract he received.

This time, the Chinese superstar brought his whole family along, combining vacation with work so it wouldn't feel too exhausting.

They first arrived in the capital of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi, and stayed at the luxurious Palace Hotel as usual. After finalizing the cooperation details and shooting promotional photos, they finally had some free time for leisure activities.

Taking this opportunity, Wang Feng drove with Lu Yao and their daughter to play in the Liwa Desert, known as the most beautiful desert in the world. Wang Haoxin was still too young, so he was left with family members to take care of.

The magnificent scenery of the vast desert excited little Siyao. She enjoyed sandboarding and riding camels very much, and later, the three of them experienced the thrill of riding desert dune buggies.

At this time, the local area was hosting a karting race. Powerful beasts leaped over bumps, creating a strong visual impact.

Upon hearing the news, Mansour hurried over to them and wanted to chat with the Chinese superstar.

Originally, Wang Feng wanted to decline citing the vacation, but Mansour's attitude was very sincere and determined, so the few of them found a quiet café nearby.

"Wang, I'm still the same target, come to Manchester City. You can get everything you want here!" Mansour said excitedly.

Wang Feng was a bit puzzled, "Didn't you just finalize Ronaldo's transfer? Why are you still trying to poach players? Besides, I and him don't really match."

The owner of Manchester City didn't hide his intentions and directly expressed that his ultimate goal was only the Chinese superstar. If he agreed, everything else would be easy to handle, including transfer fees, salaries, and the Portuguese star who had just joined.

"I have no intention of leaving Real Madrid." Wang Feng shook his head, "Don't hide it from me. Many sensitive people have noticed that you and Real Madrid will eventually part ways. Everyone is watching."

"Although there are still more than two years left on the contract, players of your level should have had rumors of contract extension long ago, but everything has been calm. That's not normal."

The Chinese superstar couldn't help but smile wryly. Indeed, at a certain level, there wouldn't be too many foolish people. "This doesn't mean I'm leaving the Galaxy Battleship immediately."

Mansour then offered an unbelievable price. If it were to spread to the outside world, it would surely shock the entire football world. Wang Feng neither confirmed nor denied, suddenly looking towards the nearby karting race track, "Is this event also sponsored by your group? I wonder if the best player is here?"

Mansour looked puzzled, not understanding why he was asking this, but still answered, "Yes, the best player? Are you referring to Alarna, the three-time consecutive champion? Of course, he's here, and he's also one of the favorites for the championship this year."

Wang Feng smiled and said, "Well then, let's do this. I'll race against him in desert karting. If he can beat me, I'll go to Manchester City!"

As the Chinese superstar put on various protective gear and prepared for the race, Mansour stood aside, feeling uneasy, "Are you serious about what you said? If Alarna wins against you, you'll agree to go?"

"Of course, I won't joke about this."

"Have you practiced desert karting before? Participated in related races?"

"Never, today is my first time encountering these vehicles. I've been playing football since I was 16; where would I have time to practice this?"

Mansour looked even more puzzled. He couldn't figure out the logic behind this, but soon seemed to understand something. Perhaps the Chinese superstar just wanted an excuse.

Alarna walked over at this time and greeted Wang Feng, "Hey, Wang, I'm also your fan, but I won't go easy on you in the race. I'm not your opponent in football, but in this, you won't beat me!"

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it!"

Lu Yao and their daughter went to the observation platform with the staff. She looked at her husband with concern, not knowing what Wang Feng was thinking at this moment.

The Chinese superstar just responded to his wife with a confident smile, while little Siyao, with her innocent thoughts, cheered for her dad in a childish voice.

Wang Feng hugged his daughter and kissed her, whispering softly, "Watch Daddy bring back another championship for you!"

With everything ready, the two players got into their karting cars and drove to the starting point. Wang Feng took a few laps to familiarize himself with the track, while Alarna didn't need any further practice.

This competition quickly attracted a lot of attention. After all, it was quite strange for a football superstar to challenge a desert karting race.

As the starting signal was given by the race official, the two karts darted out, kicking up a lot of yellow sand. The passionate audience began to cheer for them enthusiastically.
