From Inter's Black-and-Blue Glory to Manchester City's New Blue Moon: Tang Long Officially Joins City!
Tang Long felt a little embarrassed when Gracie told him to stick his butt out.
He knew what to do next.
I felt a little ashamed to make such an indecent gesture in front of a young lady.
"Can we not put it in?" Tang Long asked tentatively.
Although Gracie is young, she has absolute authority in this medical examination room.
At work, she exudes the confidence of a professional woman, and when she speaks, she naturally speaks with great conviction.
She simply patted Tang Long's bottom gently with her soft, delicate hand, and the latter obediently bent over.
"You've turned it upside down. Move it over and turn it so it's facing me."
Gracie, like the Manchester City manager on the sidelines, directed Tang Long's body to rotate 90 degrees on the examination bed with an unquestionable tone.
"I'm coming in. Are you ready? It might be a little uncomfortable, but don't worry, I'll try to be gentle."
When Gracie's slender fingers, clad in blue rubber medical gloves, slowly inserted into her anus.
A strange, refreshing sensation spread throughout Tang Long's body along his rectum. Tang Long couldn't help but let out a soft "Ah!" and his body trembled slightly as if he had been electrocuted.
Gracie stirred her fingers inside a few times, then leaned in to examine them closely.
"Very good, no external hemorrhoids, no internal hemorrhoids. You're young, you're in good shape. You probably don't drink regularly."
"I won't drink it, not even carbonated drinks," Tang Long said.
Gracie then inquired about his previous illnesses and the types of surgeries he had undergone.
Family medical history should not be ignored, in order to prevent any possible hereditary diseases.
After answering these questions, Tang Long thanked Gracie, rolled off the bed, and only when he stood on the ground did he realize that his pants were not yet pulled up.
Gracie glanced at it, then lowered her head to continue writing and drawing in her notebook.
"It's over. Thank you for your cooperation. The medical examination results will be available in an hour. I estimate there will be no problems, but this requires our chief team doctor's signature for confirmation. Please understand."
Being a doctor, he showed no embarrassment whatsoever.
Tang Long quickly dressed, thanked Gracie, and left.
As Tang Long reached the door, he saw a physical therapy chart on the table with Gracie's signature on it.
"Aren't you the team doctor? Why are you also doing the work of a physical rehabilitation therapist?" Tang Long asked.
"That's not difficult. If you want to do physical therapy in the future, you can come to me," Gracie said with a smile.
Ultimately, after a comprehensive medical examination, Manchester City's medical team concluded that Tang Long was in excellent physical condition, with all indicators in good condition.
After testing Tang Long's physical strength, which was of particular concern, they found that although he was not the bulky type, he had a high muscle density and would not have much of a problem with the intensity of the Premier League.
"This is absolutely a fantastic signing, let's look forward to its completion!"
Almost on the same day that he completed his medical examination, Tang Long's work permit in the UK was also successfully approved.
Tang Long played for Inter Milan, a world-class club, last season. As a key player, he helped the team win the UEFA Europa League and the Coppa Italia. He ranked first in Serie A assists and was selected for the league's official Team of the Season.
The judges from the UK Department for Labour were remarkably unanimous in their evaluation of Tang Long, praising him highly.
"A player who can secure a starting position at Inter Milan definitely has the ability to play in the Premier League; I don't think that needs any discussion."
"If this China player can't come to play in the Premier League because of work permit issues, it's not just his loss, but a loss for England football and for all of us fans. I think everyone agrees with me saying this?"
"I have no objection! If a player like Tang can't even apply for the Genius Clause, then what's the point of this exception?"
"That's true. Although the work permit requirements are strict, they are essentially an additional entry barrier to select more capable players for the Premier League. As far as I know, Manchester City won out over competition from big clubs like Barca and Bayern Munich. Tang Long didn't need to be screened; he chose Manchester City."
"The Genius Clause is designed for geniuses like Tang; he absolutely deserves the title of genius!"
Ultimately, all 13 Labour Department judges unanimously raised their hands and voted in favor, approving Manchester City's application for the Genius Clause for Tang Long.
Manchester City were confident of this outcome and determined to win!
When they submitted their application to the Department of Labor, they even sent only a junior clerk to make a brief statement, rather than a mid-level manager—unusually for other clubs.
In fact, let alone the fact that Tang Long's level is high enough to play in the Premier League, his work permit should not have been an obstacle to his further development.
Starting from the Abu Dhabi United Group, we worked hard and finally snatched Tang Long from the clutches of Chelsea and Manchester United. If the Ministry of Labor doesn't issue Tang Long a work permit, believe me, we'll just bring a hundred tanker trucks full of oil and flood your building!
Everything is ready, except for the final push!
This favorable wind was Tang Long personally signing his name on the Manchester City contract.
That day, when he stepped out of Manchester City's official car, wearing fitted black shorts and a blue T-shirt and sunglasses, he was already surrounded by reporters with their cameras and microphones.
Tang Long walked with light, almost imperceptible steps, yet his speed was as swift as the wind. Behind him, a group of pot-bellied, red-faced, bulbous-nosed UK, carrying cameras and microphones, huffed and puffed as they jogged to keep up with Tang Long, sweating profusely.
Despite the shaky footage, Tang Long appeared refreshed and his hairstyle was perfectly maintained.
"Tang, how are you feeling right now?"
How well do you know your Manchester City teammates? Did Ranocchia introduce them to you?
Have you spoken with Manchester City manager Pellegrini?
Reporters from outside business newspapers should not be allowed into the Manchester City Football Club's office building.
However, Business Director Berrada came up with a unique idea, giving the green light to these journalists from the Manchester City Evening News, the Sun, the Times, the Guardian, and the Daily Telegraph.
The purpose, of course, is to create momentum!
They deliberately created a lively atmosphere.
The reporters were blocked outside the signing room.
Twenty minutes later, Tang Long opened the door and came out with his agent Ronaldo.
"On behalf of my client, Tang, I'd like to inform you that we have signed a five-year contract with Manchester City, and Tang will be playing for Manchester City's first team in the new Premier League season. Thank you for your support!"
Almost the instant Ronaldo finished speaking, the reporters' phones started ringing with email notifications.
Photos of the signing ceremony have been sent to every reporter's email address.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan and Manchester City's official websites also updated their homepage news immediately.
Inter Milan: <Dust got in your eyes, thank you for your efforts>
Today, with mixed feelings, we officially announce that former Inter Milan star, Donovan, has embarked on a new journey, joining Manchester City in the Premier League. At this moment, we are not only saying goodbye to a player, but also bidding farewell to a legend, a glorious memory deeply engraved in Inter Milan's history.
Looking back on Dom's time with Nerazzurri, his 7 goals and 27 assists in 31 matches are the most striking impressions, but this is far from summarizing his entirety. The Coppa Italia and UEFA Europa League titles are the fruits of his and his teammates' hard work, and the best proof of his exceptional talent. However, what is even more unforgettable is his poetic and picturesque performance on the field. Every touch of the ball was full of inspiration and creativity, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating every corner of the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, leaving every fortunate fan immersed in endless reverie and reminiscence.
Dom's departure undoubtedly deprived our squad of a crucial piece, but his spirit and contributions will forever inspire future Inter Milan players. We thank Dom for every drop of sweat and every moment he gave for Inter Milan; these will become our precious assets, motivating us to continue moving forward.
Here, we extend our sincerest blessings to Tang, wishing him continued success and the creation of many more brilliant moments in his new journey at Manchester City. Although you now wear the jersey of another team, in Inter Milan's hearts, you will always be a part of us, and forever the talented player we remember.
Goodbye, Tang! May your future be as bright as you wished, and we, carrying your spirit, will continue to write glorious chapters for Inter Milan.
