Chapter 376: Negotiation
"I'm sorry, Di, for keeping you waiting for two days."
After seeing Dick, Moratti immediately said a word to Dick with some apologies.
"Christmas...... For such an important day, I came at the wrong time. Dick chuckled slightly.
Moratti stepped aside and said to Dick, "This is our vice-president, Mr. Facchetti...... Soon, though, he'll be the chairman. ”
Dick had long seen the tall figure behind Moratti - Facchetti was more than 1.9 meters tall, although he was now older, his height was inevitably a little reduced, but he was still a lot taller than Moratti......
"Hello, Mr. Facchetti...... I've admired your name for a long time, the first full-back to assist. Dick smiled and shook Facchetti's hand.
Facchetti smiled slightly, noncommittal.
The meeting place between the two parties was not in a bar, but directly in Dick's hotel room, and now it was the details of the contract that were to be discussed.
"Mr. Dick, we have drawn up a contract for you, please take a look at it."
Fachetti is not a person who likes to talk nonsense, and as soon as he sat down, he handed Dick a stack of contracts - he would be the president of Inter Milan in a few days, because the results of the season began to decline, the discontent of the fans gradually increased, and Moratti was a little disheartened, so he decided to hide himself behind the scenes and let Fachetti take care of the club's affairs.
For Facchetti, the pressure is also high, and despite knowing that Dick will be the manager of Inter Milan in the new season, he still has some doubts about whether Dick is a good person to deal with.
Dick took the contract he handed over, but didn't look at it, but put it aside.
"I don't need to look at the specific contract, I just want to confirm some of the main conditions." Dick said after putting down his contract.
"You say." Fachetti nodded quietly.
"I have absolute power over the transfer of the team, within the scope of the transfer funds, I have to decide who I want to buy, I can sell any player I don't want, and there is absolutely no situation where I want to keep someone but I have to sell him...... That's the first point. ”
"I have absolute power over the arrangement, who to use and who not to use, it's all up to me, and I have to have the final say on what tactics to use, and I don't want to be like Carlo Ancelotti, who is ready to play the Christmas tree, but because of Berlusconi's words, he starts playing as a double striker, which is the second point."
Hearing this, both Moratti and Facchetti laughed, and although Dick was asking them for it, using Berlusconi as an example made them feel very happy.
"There is absolutely no problem with this, I have discussed it with Mr. Fachetti, no matter who you want to sell, it is your job, no matter who you use, we will absolutely never interfere." Moratti said.
"What if I'm going to sell Vieri and Recoba?" Dick asked suddenly.
Moratti was stunned for a moment, and then mixed emotions appeared on his face - after Ronaldo left, these two people are basically his two favorite players, and if Dick really wants to sell these two people, it will be an extremely painful thing for him......
If Dick hadn't been too good in the past few years, with a team of Dortmund to win so many championships, he probably wouldn't have accepted Dick's conditions, but now Moratti's thinking is not the same as before, and being able to choose Cooper between Cooper and Ronaldo is also a change - if it were changed before, he would probably not hesitate to fire Cooper and leave Ronaldo......
It was precisely because Moratti chose to believe in the head coach in such a two-way choice that Dick was willing to talk to Inter Milan, otherwise, he was leading the team to play, and which godson ran to cry, Moratti came forward to ask him to put this godson in the game lineup...... That's too bad.
After thinking for a few minutes, Moratti gritted his teeth: "As long as you can win the championship for me, then whatever you want!" ”
"Believe me, I'm going to be able to bring a couple of big trophies to Inter." Dick laughed.
"What's next?" Moratti asked.
"Then there is nothing more than a question of personal treatment...... I asked for a base salary of three million euros and the rest in the form of bonuses, one million euros for the Coppa Italia, one million euros for the Serie A title, two million euros for the Champions Cup, four million euros. If the next season is to win the UEFA Cup, then to win the title, I will ask for the same two million euros. In terms of management, I don't interfere. ”
Hearing this price, Moratti and Facchetti gasped at the same time - they had long heard that Dick wanted money, and it was really fierce......
However, for Moratti, he can still adapt to the price, and if Dick does what he did at Dortmund, he may be able to make more money from the transfer market with the reality that Inter Milan now have so many redundancies.
"Isn't that a little too high?" Facchetti asked: "You must know that Cooper's salary is only four million euros a year......
"But Cooper didn't bring the championship." Dick smiled and said, "Let's put it this way, if I don't win a championship in a season, I can only take half of the base salary." If I only won the Coppa Italia, I would only get half of the base salary. I believe that I will get the most salary, and only those who deserve it deserve to be paid so much. ”
Indeed, if Dick can win the league title and the Champions Cup, even if he takes 10 million a year from Inter Milan, Inter Milan will be worth it - how much money did they spend before? What's more, for Facchetti, Dick's clean-up of players, saving salaries and completing surpluses in the transfer market at Dortmund is very appealing to him, not to mention that his base salary is only three million, and the rest is paid in the form of bonuses, these bonuses do not need to be taxed, which virtually saves a lot of money!
"No problem." Moratti snapped.
"That's what I wanted, and if it was all written in the contract, I think we would be able to sign it in two days...... Also, Mr. Moratti, Mr. Facchetti, I want to take advantage of these two days to get a look at some of the current players of Inter Milan, and I want to be able to get information about all the players in the first team and the development squad of Inter Milan now, including their contracts, what team they are in now...... You have to know all of that, and I'm going to give you a list of players after signing the contract, and some of the players need to be approached now. ”
"That's fine." Fachetti nodded: "Tonight, I will personally come over to deliver this information." ”
After this series of issues have reached a consensus, there will be no problem next, the contract Dick's assistant will look at it, confirm that the conditions are the same as the previous confirmation can be signed, and Dick will also use this time to make preparations for the current situation of Inter Milan......
Facchetti moved quickly, and that night, the profile of Inter's first team, the development squad and all the loan players and those who owned the property was on Dick's desk.
The information of fifty or sixty people was all in front of Dick.
Dick sighed loudly, Inter Milan has bought too many people in recent years, it is easy to buy in, and it is troublesome to sell, so many players are loaned out by Inter Milan, Dick now has to see which players still meet his requirements, and what players should be sold as soon as possible.
With so many players on display, Dick decided to start with the players on loan and half ownership - half ownership in Serie A is simply a big killer for accounting, La Liga will abolish half ownership next summer, and then Serie A will be the only club that still implements a half-ownership strategy......
Dick doesn't want to care about other things, he knows that Inter Milan will definitely not be less than this kind of thing, but fortunately, generally speaking, a big club like Inter Milan uses half of the ownership to do the accounting, mainly young players, as long as his first team is okay, he doesn't care about this kind of thing, after all, this is also a way of running the club, even if it is to quench his thirst......
Most of the players on loan were under the age of 20, and Dick didn't bother with them, just stayed in the reserves, and Dick didn't see any names too familiar among them, except for a Macedonian striker Pandev.
"This striker is good, if the striker is cleaned well, he can stay." Dick drew a circle around Pandev's name.
In addition to these young players in their mid-twenties, among the players who have been loaned out is Italian full-back Lombatti, whose contract expires in the summer, and Dick has chosen to leave on a free transfer when his contract expires.
The players whose contracts expire in the summer of 05 are 30-year-old local goalkeeper Scarpie, 27-year-old Uruguayan striker Pacheco, 25-year-old local goalscorer Ventola and 23-year-old Portuguese attacker Paulo Costa.
There are also those players whose contracts have only expired in 06 - the salaries of these guys are shocking - French midfielder Dalma, with an annual salary of 1.8 million, Argentine midfielder Guli, with an annual salary of 1.9 million, Uruguayan defender Sorondo, with an annual salary of 750,000, and Turkish midfielder Yumit, with an annual salary of 1.6 million.
Thanks to the fact that these four players are all on loan, Inter Milan does not need to pay wages or taxes during the year, otherwise the combined salaries of these four people are six million, and Moratti has no amount of money to fill it.
For these four players, Dick felt that he had no need to stay, Dalma was once very favorable, but his slow attacking frequency and physical shortcomings made it difficult for him to survive in Serie A, Gully has always been a cheat, and it is really Inter Milan blind to exchange Seedorf for such a thing, or Cooper is blind, Sorondo's strength is limited, Yurmit Davala is not young, and his strength is not very good.
For these four players, Dick's evaluation is to strive to sell at a better price, if you can't sell it, then it's okay to sell it at a low price, Dalma failed in Serie A, and his performance on loan to Tottenham Hotspur was mediocre, but in France, he still has many clubs who want him, which depends on the ability of Inter Milan's transfer department.
After assessing the loan players almost, Dick started looking at the players he co-owned – something that made Dick look forward to it.
