Fox in the Penalty Area

Kendall Kabangka drove his black high-end car out of the gate of Manchester Athletic's training base, and saw many Manchester Athletic fans standing on the side of the road, and when they saw their car coming out, they raised their hands one after another. placard.

It says:

"Go to your Barcelona now!"

"We don't need people who don't want to fight for us!"

"You don't owe Athletics anything, but Athletics doesn't owe you anything!"

"Congratulations, you have wanted to leave here for a long time!"

...

In addition to holding signs, the men raised their middle fingers at his car and booed.

If it wasn't for the police to stop them at the scene, these people might have rushed onto the road and blocked directly in front of Kabangka's car.

But it's not quite such a ruthless scene. On the other side of the road, there are those fans wearing Kabonca Manchester Athletic jerseys, and the slogan in their hands is a helpless and tender farewell:

"Good luck, Kabonka, we love you forever!"

"I'm sorry we can't have you forever..."

"I will always remember those wonderful moments of yours!"

...

Of course, compared with those who scold him, the number and volume of those who support him are much weaker.

After all, the majority of the Manchester Athletic fan base are those who hold ill will towards Kabonka.

In fact, if it is just a simple transfer and leaving, the contradiction between the two sides will not be so intensified...

The emotional breakdown between Kabonka and Manchester Athletic fans began with the team's Champions League quarter-final loss to Stan Park Rangers.

Manchester Athletic lost 1:3 away to Stan Park Rangers in the first leg. Kabonca, who had previously performed well in the quarter-final against Sporting Bordeaux, performed very poorly in this game and was like sleepwalking.

Instead of helping the team in the game, he was placed in high hopes and was instead frozen by Stan Park Rangers captain Harry Bergard.

In the end, the team lost the first round.

In the score after the game, Kabangka, who was replaced in the 66th minute, scored the lowest score of the Manchester Athletic team.

Immediately afterwards, jokes against Kabangka began to appear on the Internet.

For example, the 35-year-old veteran who ridiculed the 25-year-old Kabangka who was playing properly was so ill-tempered by the 35-year-old who had suffered a serious knee injury in the game, people couldn't help but wonder who was 25 and who was 35.

Others taunted Kabonca for his poor performance because his Champions League campaign was over after Catalan were knocked out in the quarter-finals. In the paragraph, Kabangka asked in surprise: "The Champions League quarter-final with Stan Park Rangers? What quarter-final? Didn't I get eliminated in the quarter-finals?"

This is a mockery that Kabangka is in Cao Ying and has a heart in Han. Although he is still a Manchester Athletic player, his heart has flown to Catalan United.

In comparison, the lethality of the media's direct criticism of Kabangka's poor performance is not as good as these yin and yang jokes.

After all, direct criticism is a matter of fact, criticizing mistakes, but also acknowledging advantages. And making up jokes belongs to "infinite expansion". At this time, no matter what Kabangka does or says, it is wrong. He can't justify himself, and every word of the defense will be misinterpreted into other meanings, but if he thinks that he can escape the disaster by staying silent, then obviously it won't work, because silence will only give the other party the right to speak.

One of the reasons why Kabonka suffered such a big public opinion crisis is that he did not perform well in the game against Stan Park Rangers. But on the other hand, it is also related to the issue of his contract extension with Manchester Athletic this season.

As the hero who helped the team win the league title and reach the Champions League final last season, Manchester Athletic fans all hope that Kabangka can renew his contract with the club, continue to stay in the team, and continue to fight for the Champions League championship.

As a result, after finishing the Champions League final with Blue and White Munich, news came from Kabonka that he wanted to leave.

That's really pouring cold water on those ardent Manchester Athletic fans.

The transfer period last summer was like an extremely ugly soap opera for Manchester Athletic fans. And if it's just the kind of soap opera shown on TV, they can change the channel if they don't want to watch it. But the soap operas of transfer conflicts that happened to their own team and core players, they couldn't change the channel if they wanted to, and could only be forced to watch it.

In this soap opera, neither Kabangka nor Manchester Athletic Club is the winner. Kabangka has attracted a lot of dissatisfaction from Manchester Athletic fans for himself, and Manchester Athletic Club has also affected his signing plan, and those Kabonka Card fans are also very dissatisfied with the club, believing that the club's practice of forcibly retaining players is really unworthy.

In the end, the ending of the soap opera was not satisfactory either. Kabonka would have been forced to stay for a season and definitely not renew his contract with the club. This is really hard to go...

Manchester Athletic also lost the opportunity to sell a talented player who is as famous as Merry for a big price.

Although Manchester Athletic Club is still trying to renew the contract with Kabangka in the new season, Kabangka just did not respond.

Until January 1, 2028, Kabonka can negotiate with any club, and Manchester Athletic Club will no longer have the means to force him.

Both the relationship and the relationship were completely broken.

The 3-1 away loss to Stan Park Rangers in the Champions League quarter-final was just the fuse that was lit.

After Manchester Athletic was completely eliminated from the Champions League, there were reports in the media that Kendall Kabonka had signed a joining agreement with Catalan United, and he had become a Catalan United player.

Faced with such revelations, Kabangka, who had been silent in the past, responded unexpectedly and admitted it!

"...I don't want to deceive everyone. My cycle here is over, I've given everything I can to the team, I don't owe anyone anything..."

It was clear that this was what Kabonka said in a fit of anger.

It can be seen that during this period of time, he was really disturbed by those who sprayed him on the Internet.

One of the slogans he saw outside the training base, "You don't owe Athletics anything, but Athletics owes you nothing!" was the response from Manchester Athletic fans.

Kabonca had just driven back to his apartment when he received a call from his agent, Igor Arauyo.

Araoyo's voice on the phone was a little worried: "Are you okay, Kendall?"

"I'm fine, Igor."

"I saw the video outside your training base on the Internet..." Araoyo explained the reason why he called. "I'm a little worried about you."

"Don't worry about me, Igor. When I said that, I already thought about the situation I might face."

Although he said that he didn't need to worry about him, Araoyo could still hear a "depressed" emotion in Kabangka's tone.

He knew that Kabonka was still reluctant to say goodbye to the club and the fans in this way.

After all, he has been with Manchester Athletic for seven seasons since he arrived in 2021 when he was nineteen, the longest of his career.

Either way, it's emotional.

"I'm just a little bit regretful... I watched the scene when Hu returned to the Flanders Stadium, and I thought I might be able to enjoy the same treatment when I return to the Fraser Stadium in the future... Now it seems impossible. already."

Araujo can only comfortably say: "Time will tell, Kendall. Everything you have done for Manchester Athletic will not be ignored. When the debate and the smoke clears, most people will still remember you."

Kabangka was a little uninterested: "Whatever. I'm not a Manchester Athletic player by then. What they think of me has nothing to do with me. I'm even more concerned about whether the Catalan United can win the La Liga championship this season..."

I heard him talking about the suspense of the La Liga championship~www.readwn.com~ Araoyo chuckled: "Among the three teams, the Catalan United have the lowest odds of winning the title. Besides, this season's Catalan United is empty-handed. It is in our best interest.”

Kabonka certainly knew why the agent was saying that.

If Catalonia won the league title, his arrival would be a little embarrassing.

On the contrary, Catalonia won nothing to stimulate the club to make a series of changes in his favor.

But he still retorted: "I'm not going to be a savior, Igor. I'm going to join a strong team... Only in this way, it makes sense for me to move to Catalan United."

"Ah, you are right, Kendall. We must have a strong mentality, no matter who the opponent is, we are not afraid of competition... By the way, will you watch the game between Catalonia and the Pirates?"

Kabonka gave him an affirmative answer: "Yes, I'll pay attention."
