Chapter 717 Finalize the Contract

After submitting the transfer application, the following is the procedure, at most a week, at least three or four days, Gao Xiaodong can go to Manchester United to report.

The morning after meeting Moratti, Gao Xiaodong washed up early, ready to go to the Eagles' veterans stadium for one last training session, say goodbye to his teammates, and then have a casual meal.

Gao Xiaodong had just finished washing up and was about to go out when Andre, the leader of Inter Milan, knocked on the door and came in.

"Gao, the coach asked me to tell you, you don't have to train today. ”

Usually Andre and Gao Xiaodong have a good relationship, and they always talk with a smile, but today Andre's melon face has turned into a bitter melon face, and when he speaks, he seems to be reading a verdict.

Before the special person left, the tea was cold, and Gao Xiaodong was speechless to Andre and Benitez.

Gao Xiaodong threw his backpack on the sofa and said with a smile: "That's great, it's rare to have a holiday." ”

"Gao, if nothing happens, I'll go back. Andre still looked bitter.

"Let's go, let's go. Gao Xiaodong waved his hand and drove Andre out like a fly.

As soon as Andre left, Xiao Le came in, and when he saw Andre's back, Xiao Le asked with some confusion: "Xiaodong, what is the team leader doing?" ”

Gao Xiaodong lay down on the bed and said, "Inform me that I don't have to train today." ”

When Xiao Le heard this, he got angry, "What kind of person, this hasn't been transferred yet, I won't let you participate in training, you have a contract, why, you just go to training and see what Fat Bei can do." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Forget it, people don't welcome us, for fear that I will leak my tactics, let's make a lot of fun, just take it as a vacation in the United States." ”

Xiao Le said: "Then how to do it, if you transfer to Manchester United, the competition will be more fierce, how can you do it without training." Isn't Manchester United also training in Philadelphia, you might as well train with Manchester United, anyway, you will be a Manchester United person sooner or later. ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Nonsense, what's the point of going to Manchester United now, I'm not afraid of scaring people, let's go out for a walk, look at Jinggou shopping, and then you make an appointment for me, and invite my teammates to have a casual meal in the evening." ”

……

After Moratti's failure to retain Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong's transfer to Manchester United was no longer in trouble, and Mendes immediately rushed to Manchester to negotiate Gao Xiaodong's transfer contract with Manchester United CEO David Gill.

Gao Xiaodong is now the hottest player in the transfer market, if it weren't for Gao Xiaodong's liquidated damages set low, a player like him with both strength and potential should not appear in the transfer market at all, so Manchester United does not have much bargaining capital.

Manchester United offered Gao Xiaodong an annual salary of 12 million euros, which is Manchester United's highest salary and the second highest salary in the Premier League, which is one million higher than the annual salary that Inter Milan is ready to offer Gao Xiaodong.

Manchester United also offered this annual salary in consideration of Rooney's stay, and they intend to give Rooney 11 million euros a year, second only to Gao Xiaodong, the second highest salary at Manchester United.

Last time Gao Xiaodong transferred to Inter Milan, the signing fee was only 2 million euros, but this time he is already the core of the treble, and the signing fee is of course rising, and Manchester United gave him a signing fee of 10 million euros.

The appearance fee in Manchester United's contract is high for Inter Milan, which is 40,000 euros per game, but the bonus for winning the league and the Champions League is low, winning the league title is 500,000 euros, and the Champions League winner is 800,000 euros, but if you win the double, the bonus is directly increased to 2 million euros, and if you win the treble, the bonus soars to 3 million euros.

Manchester United's goal awards, assist awards and Inter Milan are also slightly different, Manchester United according to the number of goals and assists, the amount is also different, the previous goal bonus is a little less, but the more you score, the higher the goal bonus, such as the first ten goals, 20,000 euros each, 10 to 20 goals, each goal is 30,000 euros, which is an efficient scorer like Gao Xiaodong, this contract will make him earn more.

Gao Xiaodong can accept such an annual salary and bonus, this annual salary is the top in the world, as long as the local tyrant Manchester City is not enough, in order to poach people, the annual salary is one step higher.

The key to the contract is still in the image right, Manchester United hopes to get all the image rights of Gao Xiaodong in order to carry out commercial development, and can even provide Gao Xiaodong with a higher annual salary and signing fee for this purpose, but Mendes is a shrewd person, he knows very well the value of the Chinese market behind Gao Xiaodong, and insists that Gao Xiaodong holds 50% of the portrait rights.

Manchester United is now in debt of 500 million pounds, and the reason why Glazer dares to borrow to buy Gao Xiaodong is because Manchester United has the most fans in China, and they think that they can earn it back through the development of Gao Xiaodong's portrait, and if Gao Xiaodong holds half of the portrait rights, Manchester United will not make much money.

Manchester United promised Mendes that it could help Gao Xiaodong promote it, improve Gao Xiaodong's commercial value, let Gao Xiaodong win the Golden Globe Award, and help Gao Xiaodong contact commercial sponsors around the world, as long as Gao Xiaodong is willing to give up some of his portrait rights.

Now that Gao Xiaodong is the emperor's daughter and does not worry about marrying, Mendes will certainly not give in, he told David Gill that he will not give up any portrait rights, 50% is already a concession, and Manchester City is even willing to give Gao Xiaodong 100% of the portrait rights.

Seeing that Manchester United was unwilling to give in, Mendes began to subtly put pressure on Manchester United, he kept wandering around London, Madrid, Barcelona, and even Liverpool, every time a reporter asked Mendes if he came for Gao Xiaodong's transfer, Mendes said that he came for the transfer of other players, and it had nothing to do with Gao Xiaodong's transfer, but the more Mendes said this, the more the media thought that Gao Xiaodong's transfer to Manchester United was wrong, and the Chinese superstar may be thrown into the arms of other giants.

Manchester United owner Glazer is not an idle person, Jews have a natural business acumen, under his instructions, Manchester United used Gao Xiaodong as pressure to step up contract renewal negotiations with Rooney, and at the same time proposed to the media to transfer B plan, intending to bring in Sneijder, Fabregas and other stars.

When negotiations reached an impasse and Glazer and Mendes battled their ways, United boss Alex Ferguson couldn't hold on.

In the eyes of the 69-year-old man, commercial income must be compromised for competitive performance, he doesn't care how much Manchester United can earn by getting all the image rights, he only knows that without Gao Xiaodong, it is very difficult for him to realize his dream of the treble again, he needs Gao Xiaodong, whether he makes money or not, the club will find a way to go.

And now it is only two weeks before the opening of the Premier League, and now there is no time to run in to sign Gao Xiaodong, how can it be delayed.

Ferguson happened to be training in the United States, and he personally went to the home of Florida boss Glazer and asked Glazer to sign Gao Xiaodong as soon as possible to avoid long nights.

Through the fight with Mendes, Glazer found that it was very difficult to make him make concessions, so he threw out his last killer move, using Gao Xiaodong's future transfer fee of 10% in exchange for Gao Xiaodong's 20% portrait rights.

Glazer's proposal is very tempting, after all, Gao Xiaodong's current transfer value should actually be higher than the liquidated damages, but Inter Milan is set low, if Gao Xiaodong's transfer exceeds 100 million in the future, then ten percent is more than 10 million.

Mendes couldn't do this, so he told Gao Xiaodong, who was on vacation in the United States, about Manchester United's proposal.

Gao Xiaodong has a superstar system, and he knows very well what level he can achieve, and the transfer fee will definitely be higher in the future, and he told Mendes that the 10% transfer commission can only be exchanged for 10% of the image rights, and it is not okay to do more.

Mendes told Gao Xiaodong's idea to Manchester United, Manchester United accepted Gao Xiaodong's opinion under the pressure of Ferguson, and exchanged 10% of the transfer commission for Gao Xiaodong's 10% portrait rights.
