Manchester City's commercial director, Belada, nervously dialed Tang Long's agent Ronaldo's phone number.
During the call, he informed Ronaldo about Paris Saint-Germain's official offer of 230 million for Tang Long.
On the other end of the line, Ronaldo responded to Belada with a hearty laugh.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Belada. You informed us of the offer from another club as per the contract terms my client signed with the club. But rest assured, there's absolutely no operable possibility for such a transfer. Tang just joined the club less than a year ago, who could poach him away?"
"We're all in this circle, can't you see? Nasser is just trying to mess with your minds."
"You're asking about Tang's personal thoughts?"
"Just five minutes before your call, I got a call from Tang. He said he almost laughed himself to tears, only a fool would leave a great place like Manchester City to play in Ligue 1."
