Chapter 326: The Undercurrent Before the Final (Part II)
Xu Yongchang faced Günesh's resentful gaze, and replied stubbornly: "One is Vitesse of the Netherlands, and the other is Bovista of Portugal." ”
Güneshi had a very bad premonition, at such an important moment in the AFC Champions League final, the general manager of the club came to tell him about it, which means that he actually does not plan to leave Li Xuyan. Otherwise, he can directly reject the other party's offer, and not add to his own block at such a critical time.
He was just thinking about how to keep Li Xuyan, and Xu Yongchang came to tell him that there was a club interested in him, and his feelings were very complicated.
"Li Xuyan is very, very important for the team." That's all he could remind the other party of.
Xu Yongchang nodded: "I know, but now it's not that we don't want to keep him, it's that he doesn't want to stay." We're not going to sell this winter, and when we get next summer, we have only half a year left on our contract with him, and he can go and contact those teams freely, sign agreements privately, and then wait for the contract to expire, in which case, we won't get a penny. ”
He told Güneš what the situation was.
"If we don't make a decision earlier, the more we drag it out, the more passive we become, and we won't be able to make a penny at that time!"
Güneš frowned in his heart, he was worthy of being the general manager of the club, in charge of the operation, and he was full of money when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth.
But he cares more about the team's results.
"Or ...... Meet the conditions set forth by his agent......"
His words were interrupted by Xu Yongchang's exclamation: "How is this possible! Two million dollars a year! No one in the entire K-League has been able to enjoy such a high salary! ”
The annual salary of two million US dollars is more than 13 million yuan at the exchange rate at the time!
If you agree to this condition. Li Xuyan earns money in a year is the money that many middle-class people make in a lifetime, and he can completely become one of the rich class.
Let Li Xuyan make so much money alone, and the consortium behind Seoul FC gritted his teeth and couldn't afford it. But Li Xuyan will have a very bad head. He's very popular in the team right now. Whether it is popularity, it is impossible for income to be completely confidential. By then, everyone knew that this kid had earned their income for several years. What would other people think? We're also the main players, and we're not a big contributor to the team, so why are we so much worse – the average annual salary at FC Seoul is still basically less than $500,000.
If Li Xuyan is given a salary increase this time, the agents of Ji Chengyong, Kim Jin-gyu, Dejan, Andilson and others will definitely try their best to raise the salary of their players.
Therefore, this opening must not be opened. This is also the meaning of the consortium behind the club.
Xu Yongchang would rather sell Li Xuyan to make a lot of money, and would not give Li Xuyan a salary increase of $2 million.
Now in his eyes. Li Xuyan and his agent are as terrifying as a flood beast.
Seeing that Xu Yongchang refused so simply and impatiently, Güneshi was silent.
Xu Yongchang began to persuade Güneshi to look away: "The current situation is that we can't keep him, he has great ambitions. The Korean league can't satisfy him. In that case, it's better to sell him, while he can afford to sell it now, and then we can use the money to buy a few players who are also strong. I don't think there are no players in football who are as good as him......"
Güneš said in his heart: "I'm afraid you'll really have a hard time finding a second player as good as him." Even if there is. It's only going to be more expensive......"
But he didn't say anything on his lips.
Xu Yongchang persuaded for a long time, but Güneshi just didn't nod his head. After a long time, he said, "I'm going to talk to him face to face again." ”
Xu Yongchang also knew that this person was not giving up, and at the same time, he also knew that Li Xuyan had made up his mind, and he would never be left by the head coach after a few words, so he waved his hand: "Okay, you can talk to him again." ”
……
Li Xuyan was left alone by Güneshi after the training.
The two men didn't go back to the hotel or find another place, but they talked face-to-face on the training ground.
"I have something to tell you. Xu Yan. ”
Li Xuyan hummed and waited for the following.
"There are two teams that have made offers to the club. They want to buy you. ”
Li Xuyan had a premonition at first when he saw Xu Yongchang talking to Güneshi on the sidelines, but now when he heard the news, his heart couldn't help beating violently.
"I don't know exactly how much, I didn't ask. What do you think? ”
Li Xuyan didn't say anything as Güneshi expected: "I definitely won't leave or anything like that......"
He blurted out, "Which two teams?" ”
Günesh took a deep breath before stabilizing his emotions: "A Vitesse in the Eredivisie and Bovista in the Portuguese Super League. ”
As soon as he heard that it was a team in the top league of the Netherlands and Portugal, even if it was not the expected top five leagues, Li Xuyan felt that it was okay, but after hearing the name of the team, he was confused - what are Vitesse and Bovista? The Netherlands and Portugal are more famous, he has only heard of PSV Eindhoven, Ajax, Sporting Lisbon, Benfica, Porto, etc., these two are completely unheard of - what is the point of going to a team whose name is not known to many people? Li Xuyan couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart, and immediately retreated......
"Coach, my opinion is that I won't ......" Li Xuyan's answer didn't make Güneshi excited for two seconds, and then a basin of cold water was splashed down, "Hmm...... I will do everything I can to help the team in the final game of the season, maybe help the team win the AFC Champions League and qualify for the Club World Cup! When I was wearing the Seoul jersey, I was a Seoul FC player. He said with a blazing gaze, "But the coach ...... I want to go to a bigger stage, a stronger team. ”
"Is the Club World Cup a bigger stage?" Güneš asked.
Li Xuyan nodded: "Of course." ”
"As long as we win the AFC Champions League, we can participate in the Club World Cup."
"But the Club World Cup is too short-lived, and there is more than just a big stage." Li Xuyan replied.
After Güneshi heard Li Xuyan's answer. I suddenly felt very powerless, and I didn't even fancy the team in the Eredivisie and the Portuguese Super League. As Heo Yongchang said, he is determined to leave Seoul.
What can he say? Blame Li Xuyan for being too ruthless? Ungrateful?
He wouldn't think so. It's naïve. A professional player is a professional player, and since he is a professional, he must have professionalism. The stage in Seoul is indeed too small for a person with talent like Li Xuyan, and when people do their best to play for Seoul, they have nothing to blame.
As for where he chooses to go, that's his own business.
Seoul FC can only be blamed for being a South Korean team, not a team from England, Italy, or Spain.
Stars like Raul, Totti, Ryan Giggs, Maldini and others who have only played for one team in their lives. It is synonymous with loyalty in football. But the main reason is that the team they play for is a big enough club to accommodate their ambitions and ambitions, not a third-division team that is unknown in the countryside......
……
The next day. Günesh knocked on Xu Yongchang's door early in the morning, and Güneshi said: "If the price is less than three million euros, don't sell it." ”
Xu Yongchang knew that the Turkish head coach agreed to his approach and promised to sell Li Xuyan for money.
So he decided to test how determined Vitesse and Bovista were to bring in Li Xuyan. So he immediately replied to the other club. The price is 10 million euros.
This price directly caused Vitesse and Bovista to pee their pants in fright, and they didn't dare to take it anymore......
Xu Yongchang was still waiting for others to bargain with him, but he didn't think that the other party would not bid directly, and he directly rejected this idea!
This made him extremely depressed.
Of course, he knew that the price of 10 million euros was too high, but isn't it always the case when talking about business? I think I'm bidding too high, can't you cut it?
Besides, Lee Wook Yan was just twenty-one years old and the youngest top scorer in the Korean league this season. also broke the K-League single-season goal record, and just led the team to the AFC Champions League final. It is very likely that even the AFC Champions League Golden Boot will be won.
What's more, he is still a Chinese, which is also a big advantage for clubs interested in developing the Chinese market.
There is commercial value, and he is still young and has potential, so the price is not too high, right?
The thought of Vitesse and Bovista shrank directly, which made him very depressed, it was so insincere!
……
On the other hand, after Li Xuyan decided not to renew his contract, Che Zhenman edited his goal highlights in various games into a CD according to his ideas, wrote letters of recommendation and sent them to various giant clubs in the five major European leagues to try his luck.
But the results of the feedback so far have been disappointing.
None of the wealthy families gave a response.
The CDs were all lost in the sea, and there was no news of them.
Che Zhenman can understand how far away Asia is for the European giants, and no matter how good you perform here, they won't think how great you are......
To put it simply, although Li Xuyan is very strong in Asia, it is not enough for European giants. At least not to the point where they can be excited.
In addition, there are many other factors that restrict the interest of the wealthy in Li Xuyan. For example, Li Xuyan, who has not represented a Chinese national team in an international A-level tournament for the labor certification of the Premier League, is of course impossible to obtain a labor certification. Special Genius Clause? How many Premier League giants will use a special talent clause for an Asian player? That's a problem.
For other leagues, Li Xuyan's non-EU status is also the main reason for restricting him. The giants have many targets, and there are naturally many non-EU players, but the number of non-EU places is limited. Use one less than one. For the Italian giants, there is only one fixed non-EU quota and one floating non-EU quota per season, so why do they have to give it to a player from the Korean league?
The reality is so cruel - Li Xuyan wants to go to a well-known wealthy family, but the wealthy family still looks down on him as a "nobody".
Li Xuyan can only prepare for the war while waiting, waiting for the opportunity to come......
Of course, it is not without an olive branch.
In addition to the giants of the five major leagues, there are many small European clubs such as Vitesse and Boavista, as well as Asian tycoon teams, who are interested in Li Xuyan.
It's just that everyone's contact is not deep, and most of them are still in the wait-and-see stage, and Li Xuyan may not be able to look down on such a team......
In such a contradictory relationship, the AFC Champions League final is approaching day by day, and everyone's attention has finally shifted from the sidelines back to the field, after all, compared to the stay of a certain person, the ownership of the Asian championship is the focus of most people's attention.
No matter how lively the off-the-field is, you have to see the real chapter on the field at the end! (To be continued.) )
PS: The second watch is sent, I wish you all a happy May Day!
