CHAPTER 28: FAMILY REUNITED

That day, Danny and the others were trained as usual. Later after the cooling down session, Solskjær came and gathered all players around.

"Okay, boys. Tomorrow at 9am, I want all of you to be at Old Trafford. We just had confirmed a new signee and tomorrow there will be a press conference to introduce him", said Solskjær.

"Can you tell us who?" asked Maguire.

"Well, all I can tell you now is that Danny will like it", said Solskjær.

"What? Could it be...", before Danny can finished his words, Solskjær cuts him off.

"No need to make a guess. You'll know it tomorrow. Now time to dismiss", said Solskjær. Then, all players dismissed.

"Hey, Danny. Want to grab a lunch together?" asked Rashford.

"Sure, who else be going?" asked Danny in returned.

"Just both of us and Harry", said Rashford.

"Okay. Let's go then", said Danny. Then, both of them walked to Maguire before all 3 of them making their way to the usual diner.

"So, Danny. How does it like being here in Manchester so far?" asked Maguire.

"It's great. I can feel that it just matter of time before I can get my spot back with the national team", said Danny.

"Good to hear. You seem enjoying our training too. I don't think we will heard you punching our teammates for the time being", said Rashford. Danny and Maguire are chuckled.

"Oh, c'mon mate. That only happen when someone like that pissed me off. I'm sure that it won't be happen here in Manchester", said Danny.

"Hope so. By the way, who did you think will be introduce as our new player tomorrow?" asked Maguire.

"Oh, come to think about it. Solskjær said you will be happy with it", said Rashford.

"I only have one person in mind but I'm not sure about it", said Danny.

"Okay. So, who is this person you had in mind?" asked Maguire.

"My cousin that played in Brazilian Serie A", said Danny.

"Who is that?" asked Rashford.

"Jeff Rossall", said Danny.

"That Malaysian-English Flamengo striker that scored 6 goals in FIFA World Club tournament last December?" asked Maguire. Danny just nodded.

"He's a good forward. If he really came here, I'm sure it will be a great reinforcement to us", said Rashford.

"Well, we just to need to wait and see if it's real", said Maguire.

"Yeah, right. I won't be get my hope too high", said Danny. Later, their meals arrived. After finished their lunch, they returned to their home.

That night;

Danny is watching TV when he get a group video call from his cousins. He then accept the call.

Danny: Hello, cousins.

Hariz: Hey, bro. How are you doing?

Danny: Well, I'm good.

Helena: Danny, we heard a rumour.

Danny: What rumour?

Amanda: That my twin brother will be joining you in The Red Devils.

Danny: Well, Solskjær did told us this morning that we will have a new player that just signed a deal with us but he didn't tell us who is that player.

Xander: Just imagine if that person is Haller.

Danny: Then, I might ended up punch him again sooner or later.

Helena: If he ever get a chance to play of course. I heard his transfer fee if any teams ever want to get him is just £5 Million, dropped £40 Million than during he signed with West Ham.

Amanda: He deserve that. He's the one that causes Danny to lose his place in the national team after all.

Hariz: Yes, but never mind that. By the way, Danny. I heard that he and Courtney are having quite a big fight right now.

Danny: Well, that's not really my problem though. Let it be.

Xander: That's true, bro. So, did you have a new girlfriend right now?

Danny: Not yet. I just going to be focus with career for now.

Hariz: That's wise, bro. Don't think about it too much.

Helena: Then, he might ended up single forever like you.

Amanda: No, he's not. I heard he's dating a Malaysian actress now.

Hariz: Tu gosip ja la, woi!!! (Hey, that just a gossip)

Amanda: Ya lah tu. Dengaq crita last hang balik Malaysia, hang pi jumpa dia. (Yeah, right. I heard that the last time you returned to Malaysia, you went to meet her)

Xander: Pi, kantoi. (Damn, you got busted)

Helena: Tu la pasai. (Yeah, right)

Hariz: Pa salahnya? Pi jumpa kawan ja pon. (What's wrong with that? Just a friend meet though)

Helena: Wah, pandai mengelak, nampak. (Trying to run away, bro)

Danny: Urmmm, lads. Can you please not using Malay when you're quarell?

Helena: That's true, lads. Danny was left out now.

Hariz: Sorry, mate.

Danny: Never mind.  By the way, cousin. I'm going to sleep now. Need to wake up early tomorrow after all.

Hariz: Yes. Same goes to us. We all have training tomorrow after all.

Amanda: That's true. Goodnight then. I love you all.

All: Goodnight. I love you all too.

Then, they hung up.

On the next day;

Danny wakes up earlier than he used to be. Then, he wore his track suit before went for a jogging around his neighbourhood. Then, he came across Ella Toone.

"Hi, Ella. Never thought that I will see you at the time like this" said Danny.

"Hi. I'm jogging around here too sometimes" replied Ella.

"I see" said Danny.

"By the way, Danny. Want to hangout sometimes?" asked Ella.

"Just 2 of us?" asked Danny in returned.

"Yes. It's okay if you didn't want to" said Ella.

"I love to. We can know about each other more" said Danny.

"Great. See you later then" said Ella. Danny just nodded before Ella left.

"I wonder" mumbled Danny alone before Danny continues his jogging.

"Ladies and gentlemen. After managed to sign Danny Quinn from West Ham United, today we would like to introduce to you the new signing for our club. It's Danny's cousin that played for Brazilian side's CR Flamengo, Jeff Rossall. We managed to sign him from CR Flamengo with a transfer fee £45 Million. The reason why we dare to have him is because his records. In 2018, he managed to be the top scorer at Brazil Serie A. Then, last year, he scored 23 goals in the league, he might not be the top scorer in the league but he is the top scorer for Copa Libertadores and he scored hatrick in both match that he played in the FIFA World Club tournament last December. So, I hope this signing will be worthy", said Solskjær. Then, it's time for Jeff to talk.

"Well, first of all. It is a pleasure for me to get such a chance to play here with Manchester United, a club with such a great history. I'll try my best to be a worthy player for this club and I hope all my teammates will be helping me to adapt with this envoironment so that I can live up to the expectations", said Jeff. Then, Solskjær hands over the no. 9 jersey to Jeff. Then, he went to rest of players and introduced Jeff to all of them. When Jeff was in front of him, Danny bro-hugs him.

"Welcome to our second family, cousin", said Danny.

"Thanks, bro. I'll be looking forward to play together with you", said Jeff. Then both of them taking a selfie before Danny uploaded it to his Instagram.

"Are you trying to get Danny back to you?" asked Toni.

"What? I don't know what are you talking about", said Isla.

"You just left a comment on his Instagram post, aren't you?" asked Toni.

"So, what? Just because we're no longer dating, that doesn't mean we can't be friends, right?" asked Isla in returned.
