章 927: Greedy

The national team players finally saw their captain in June.

George Wood's return to the national team attracted a horde of reporters to the scene. The press and the fans all wanted to see how Wood's injury had recovered so far. Everyone's hearts would sink if Wood appeared before them wearing slippers and walking on crutches.

The moment Wood's manager, Billy Woox, parked his Bentley car outside the Colney training base, crowds of reporters rushed towards it. The security guards tried their hardest to hold the reporters back, but they could not stop them from firing off their cameras at Wood.

George Wood got out of the car with his head lowered. Everyone's eyes were on his right foot, and they all sighed in relief collectively when they saw him walk out in a pair of Nike sneakers.

George Wood did not turn around to retrieve a pair of crutches from within. He simply got out of the car and stood before the crowd.
