"We didn't contact the players and we didn't contact the players' agents." Ferguson was cunning, so naturally he wouldn't let Fang Jue grab the handle on his face.

Phew!

You don't contact the players, you don't contact the players' agents?

Just when what you say is true.

So, the players' families?

What about friends?

"Dream on!" Fang Jue refused to talk to Ferguson about De Gea again.

He can see that the old man is a routine, and when he mentions Ronaldo at the beginning, it is for De Gea to be mentioned later.

Fang Jue and Ferguson's meeting ended unhappily.

Fang Jue was furious, not only because of the old man's 'despicable' behavior, but also because De Gea had 'contacted' with Manchester United in private.

In Fang Jue's opinion, this is unacceptable behavior.

What's wrong with Aston Villa?

Where are I sorry for you?

You want to leave the Premier League team for three consecutive years and go to Manchester United.

Of course, this is just angry talk, and Fang Jue also knows that Manchester United is naturally not a broken house.

Don't look at Aston Villa's spring breeze now, but, in the eyes of everyone, it is still incomparable with an old giant like Manchester United.

This is the heritage and attraction of the wealthy.

However, knowing that Fang Jue was still angry, he couldn't understand why De Gea wanted to leave Aston Villa.

Although he didn't know exactly what he wanted, his instinct told him that there must be a shadow of Manchester United behind it.

……

"What's going on with De Gea?" Fang Jue called Byron the club's general manager to the office and asked with a cold face.

'His agent offered to give De Gea a raise, and I'm going to report back to you.' Byron said.

"Be specific." Fang Jue rubbed his temples, the team achieved excellent results, won the league championship again, and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

In this case, it is to be expected that the player will demand a salary increase.

In this regard, Fang Jue was prepared.

Players can play with love, and a salary increase is inevitable.

It's just that De Gea just proposed a salary increase, and he hooked up with Manchester United, which made Fang Jue both surprised and angry.

"His agent has offered £80,000 in the team's salary cap." Byron said, "I refused." ”

Yes, Fang Jue nodded.

At present, Bale's weekly salary in Aston Villa's team is £120,000, but the Welshman has a clause of 20% salary increase every year, so after June 30, Bale's weekly salary will be £144,000.

Apart from Bale, Aston Villa's maximum salary is £80,000, with only captain Clement currently receiving a maximum salary of £80,000.

Among the other players, James Milner is £55,000, Agon Lajo is £50,000, Luka Modric is £45,000 and Suarez is £30,000.

However, Modric and Suarez both joined last winter, and the salary was also set at that time, and there will definitely be salary increase negotiations this summer.

De Gea has performed well this season, a good young goalkeeper can be used for many years, and Fang Jue is naturally willing to give De Gea a raise.

However, it is too much to raise the maximum salary from £25,000 to £80,000.

"I knew these agents were goddamn vampires." Fang Jue scolded angrily, "That bastard, why didn't he say 100,000 pounds?" ”

Fang Jue felt that De Gea would not be so open-mouthed when he was young, it must be that the agent was making trouble.

Byron opened his mouth and reminded, "That's Mr. Mendes." ”

Fang Jue: w(?Д?) w。

……

Fang Jue called Mendes and asked about it.

The two got into an argument over the phone.

Fang Jue thinks Mendes and De Gea have opened their mouths, and of course, the most important thing is that he is not happy with the other party's private contact with Manchester United.

Mendes flatly denied that he or the player himself had been in private contact with Manchester United, saying that it was only an intermediary who had passed the rumors.

As for the lion's big mouth, Mendes scoffed even more, saying that De Gea deserves that kind of salary, why?

It's simple: the intermediary has come and said that United are willing to pay De Gea £100,000 a week.

"Mr. Fang Jue, I have taken into account the actual situation of Aston Villa and have persuaded the players to make concessions, so we are just proposing a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds, and if we want to match the 100,000 pounds a week salary of Manchester United, then it is a lion's mouth." Mendez said unceremoniously.

The two people quarreled fiercely and unpleasantly.

Whether it is Fang Jue questioning Mendes, or Mendes asking for a high salary for De Gea, or even having contact with Manchester United in private.

Fang Jue has to consider the interests of the team and the balance of salaries.

Mendes, as De Gea's agent, is sure to look out for his clients' interests.

It's all business, both sides have their own positions, and neither side has mixed personal relationships into it.

After the fierce argument, both sides calmed down and their tone improved a lot, Mendez asked how Santiago was doing, and Fang Jue said that the little guy was very naughty and said that he missed his grandfather.

Mendes laughed happily.

Compared with the tension and quarrel just now, this scene is simply not too warm.

……

Hanging up the phone, Fang Jue fell into thought.

Manchester United actually offered a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds to seduce De Gea.

Clearly, this was a temptation that De Gea could not refuse.

Aston Villa are a rising club in the Premier League, and the team is in very good shape with excellent results.

However, Manchester United is an established giant, with more influence and attention.

In this case, the issue of salary plays a decisive role.

Although he was very angry, Fang Jue also knew that in this situation, the vast majority of players would not be able to refuse this temptation.

Aston Villa are unlikely to offer De Gea £80,000 a week.

£80,000 is not only the highest salary in the Aston Villa team except for Bale, the weekly salary of £80,000 is an absolutely high salary even if you look at the Premier League.

Take Manchester United as an example, in addition to Rooney's £260,000 weekly salary, that is, Ferdinand's weekly salary is 120,000 pounds, Evra's weekly salary is 100,000 pounds, Ashley Young's weekly salary is 100,000 pounds, Park Ji-sung's weekly salary is 95,000 pounds and Vidic's 90,000 pounds weekly salary is higher than 80,000 pounds.

However, the old man of Ferguson actually offered a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds to seduce De Gea, and he also made a lot of money, Vidic and Evra have worked hard for so many years, and De Gea can be on par with them as soon as he comes up.

For example, Arsenal's maximum salary is £100,000 a week, and only two players in the team receive a maximum salary of £100,000.

In fact, Aston Villa's salary has risen very quickly, and looking at the current situation, they will overtake Arsenal this summer.

De Gea was 'seduced' by Manchester United, and it is difficult to solve it.

Therefore, although it is still uncertain that De Gea has made up his mind, Fang Jue has to take precautions.

However, De Gea is not too anxious, De Gea joined Aston Villa last summer and signed a five-year contract with Villa, and the young Spanish goalkeeper has four years left on his contract with Aston Villa, with Aston Villa dominating.

Fang Jue had other important things to keep busy.

The next day, Fang Jue arrived in Milan on his own private business plane.

He hopes that his trip to Milan will be a success.

……

On the day of his arrival in Milan, in a relatively private residence, Fang Jue and AC Milan's Brazilian central defender Thiago Diego Murphy met with AC Milan's Brazilian central defender. Silva and his agent, Paulo. Toneto met.

Naturally, this was not a meeting with AC Milan behind their backs, which had been communicated to the Rossoneri through formal channels in advance.

AC Milan lost the Serie A title this season, the club has some signs of turmoil, the old Italian giant's finances are not optimistic, Berlusconi's desire to inject money has greatly diminished, the team can only choose to cut meat and be forced to sell the team star to cash out.
