Pirlo slumped in his chair, feeling a headache coming on, but there was nothing he could do about it. The chairman had already acquiesced to the sale of Ronaldo… or maybe he was the one who started the motion in the first place.
Pirlo understood that despite Uventus being a football club, it was still a business and a business was inherently to make profit.
Right now, the chairman only saw Ronaldo as a hole in his pocket, not realizing that even though money was falling out from this hole, the benefits the hole brought outweighed the money it caused him to lose.
To Pirlo, it seemed like nobody understood, but as a former football player, Pirlo knew what it was like for a club that lost its main man, especially when this main man was an attacker who scored most of the team's goals.
The Uventus players had gotten in tune with getting the ball to Ronaldo, and Ronaldo being the monster that he was could convert those passes into goals, even in unexpected situations.
