After Pogba left, Gao Xiaodong said to Zhang Qi with some worry: "Brother Zhang, Pogba, this kid is a little cocked." ”

Zhang Qi did not bother with Pogba's rudeness just now, and said with a smile: "Young man, behave better, have a little fame, it is normal to swell, and slowly he will understand that it is not as easy as imagined to become the second Gao Xiaodong." ”

Gao Xiaodong frowned and said, "I'm worried that this kid will run away before his name is known." ”

Zhang Qi He Hui said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, as long as he wants to stay at Manchester United, he won't dare to leave Xinglong's agency." ”

Monkey said: "It's hard to say, a young player like Pogba, as long as he is a little famous, there will be no shortage of people poaching him." ”

Zhang Qi said: "The attraction of giants like Manchester United is not comparable to other teams, with his ability, other giants will not poach him to be the main force, since they can't play the main team, do you say that Pogba will stay in Manchester United or go to other giants." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "As long as there is still a chance in Manchester United, Pogba's first choice must be Manchester United, but we must also be prepared, this is the first talented player signed by our company, and it is our hope for rise, and we can't just let it go." ”

Zhang Qi is old and steady, he attaches great importance to Gao Xiaodong's suggestion, and said: "Well, we have to take care of him, and now I am contacting Pogba with our domestic businesses to give him more opportunities to make money." ”

Monkey said: "Brother Zhang, I think now you should ask for a senior contract for Pogba, as far as Pogba's performance is concerned, I think he is also worthy of a professional contract for Manchester United." ”

Zhang Qi said: "I'm thinking about whether to sign a professional contract with Manchester United now, or wait for Pogba to perform better before signing a contract, so that we can have more initiative and the contract can be signed bigger." ”

Monkey said: "That being said, you can't be too optimistic, in case Pogba doesn't do well in the future." ”

Gao Xiaodong had been listening carefully to the monkey and Zhang Qi, and then said, "Young man, the team looks at potential. Even if the performance is not good, it will not be a contract, but if you want a high annual salary, you still have to take advantage of the good performance. ”

Zhang Qi said: "Although no one knows whether Pogba can play, I still firmly believe that Pogba will play, whether he is at Manchester United or not, so I think it will be better to wait, it should be Manchester United who is anxious, not us." ”

The monkey said: "What Brother Zhang said makes sense, let's wait for Manchester United to come to you." ”

While the three of them were talking, Zhang Qi's mobile phone rang, Zhang Qi glanced at the phone number, made a silent gesture to Gao Xiaodong, Monkey and Xiao Le, and then connected the phone.

"Hello, Manager David...... Oh, that's it...... Okay, uh-huh, I'll go over tomorrow. ”

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Qi said with a smile: "Say Cao Cao Cao will arrive, no, David Gill called me and asked me to come over, probably because he wanted to talk to me about Pogba's contract." ”

Gao Xiaodong, Monkey, Xiao Le are very happy, if Pogba can sign with the giant Manchester United, it is a huge boost to the reputation of Xinglong Agency, with fame, Xinglong Agency will have the opportunity to recruit more and better players, for a brokerage company, good players are cash cows.

The next day, Zhang Qi was invited by Manchester United manager David Gill to Manchester United headquarters at Old Trafford.

David Gill did talk to Zhang Qi about Pogba's contract.

Pogba didn't play much in the FA Cup during this period, but he played very well, and he scored two goals, which you must know against Arsenal and Manchester City, which is a bonus for a young player.

An 18-year-old with such a performance will definitely be coveted by other giants, especially since Pogba does not have a senior contract yet, and other teams can take Pogba away with just a training fee.

Now Manchester United's midfielder is not in charge, Scholes, Giggs, and Park Ji-sung are estimated to retire next season, and in addition to Gao Xiaodong, the player has a single function, and there is a great lack of Pogba's all-round midfielder, so seeing that Pogba is old and performs well, Ferguson quickly asked David Gill to find Pogba's agent to sign a senior team contract.

Zhang Qi did not directly agree to David Gill, saying that this matter was too sudden, he wanted to go back and discuss carefully with Pogba, in Zhang Qi's view, although Manchester United is a very good choice, but Pogba has great potential, excellent performance, and has no senior team contract, so he does not worry about leaving home at all, that is to say, Xinglong Brokerage Company has the initiative in its hands, and it can ask for a higher price.

After coming back, Zhang Qi discussed with Gao Xiaodong, Monkey, and Xiao Le first, and then called Pogba over.

Pogba heard that Manchester United began to talk to Zhang Qi about his senior team contract, very happy, he signed a senior team contract for the first time, almost didn't know anything, he didn't trust Zhang Qi, but went to Gao Xiaodong to ask himself if he wanted to sign this contract, how much his annual salary was.

Gao Xiaodong told Pogba that Manchester United is a great team, and his midfielder is now in short supply, Giggs and Scholes will retire soon, as long as Pogba is patient, staying at Manchester United is a very good choice, as for the annual salary, Gao Xiaodong asked Pogba to listen to his family's opinions and do what he can.

Although Gao Xiaodong is the actual controller of Xinglong Brokerage Company, on the surface, his relationship with Xinglong Brokerage Company is only a friend of manager Zhang Qi, and he can only give him some advice from the perspective of a big brother and let him go back and discuss it with his family.

After Pogba went back to discuss with his family, he came back and told Gao Xiaodong that he wanted Manchester United to give him a weekly salary of £40,000 because he felt he could deserve it, and his team-mate Cleverley had been paid 50,000 a week.

This weekly salary is incomparable with Gao Xiaodong's weekly salary of more than 1 million pounds, but Pogba is a young man who has only played a few times as an FA Cup substitute, but Gao Xiaodong is not an agent, whether this weekly salary is high or low, he doesn't know, Gao Xiaodong asked Pogba to discuss with Zhang Qi and Monkey, they are professionals.

However, Gao Xiaodong told Pogba that at this time, he should focus on playing more games instead of asking for more money.

After Pogba told Zhang Qi and Monkey his thoughts, Zhang Qi and Monkey both felt that Pogba's weekly salary was a bit high, and I am afraid that Ferguson would not give such a high weekly salary to an 18-year-old child, after all, Pogba has not proven himself.

Zhang Qi directly told Pogba that he could ask Manchester United for such a weekly salary, but Pogba had better adjust his psychological expectations, because Manchester United may not give it, and he hopes to get a weekly salary that increases every year.

But Pogba thinks he fully deserves such a weekly wage, saying that he should start at least 35,000 pounds a week, otherwise it would be too much of a loss.

Although Zhang Qi felt that 35,000 pounds was not low, Pogba did have strength and potential, so he promised Pogba to talk to David Gill and see how Manchester United reacted.
