Chương 737: A Pair of Forest Wingers

The World Cup was over. The matter of other people's reactions was not something Twain cared about. He had to think about how to maximize the club's transfer budget of 50 million pounds.

Bentley's performance at the World Cup was far less brilliant than that of George Wood, but Twain was basically positive about his strength and form. He had already commissioned the club to ask Tottenham Hotspur for a price while the World Cup was still going on.

Tottenham Hotspur initially did not agree to sell the England starting right back, so Twain took time out during the World Cup to meet Bentley's agent so he could get in touch with the player. Bentley told Twain that he wanted to join Nottingham Forest because the Forest team could play in next season's UEFA Champions League while Tottenham Hotspur was only qualified for the UEFA Europa League.
