Chapter 469: Gao Bo's New Contract

Sometimes, if there is an agent between the manager and the player, it may not be clear to both sides what they think about each other.

Aguero made it clear on the phone that he wanted to stay, and he made it clear that he was staying for Gao Bo.

This made Gao Bo quite touched, he has only been in Atletico Madrid for a year, and he can get such trust from the players, which makes Gao Bo more confident in his work next season.

At the strong demand of the players, the opinion of the agent has become less important.

Gao Bo immediately called the staff who stayed behind and asked them to give priority to Aguero's contract extension.

With an annual salary of eight million, Aguero renewed his contract for two years, and the contract expires in 2015!

This contract is a lot higher than Aguero's previous contract, and Atletico Madrid originally planned to renew the contract for four years, but at the strong request of agent Regra, the two sides only extended the contract for two years, and Aguero did not resist this.

Modern football is not what it used to be, and now there will never be a manager like Alex Ferguson, and it is difficult to say whether Gobo will continue to stay at Atletico Madrid in a few years.

……

Gao Bo had a leisurely vacation.

He doesn't plan to make too many changes to Atletico Madrid's tactics and line-up next season, so he has a little less work to do at the start of the season.

After walking around the Mediterranean Sea and enjoying their holiday to the fullest, Takaba and Haruko returned to Madrid.

As soon as Gao Bo returned to Madrid, his agent Mendes came to the door.

It's about Gao Bo's contract renewal.

In fact, a few months ago, Cerezo had instructed Gil to put Gobo's contract extension on the agenda.

Cerezo, naturally, is not a fool.

Gao Bo is still very young and very capable.

A capable young man must be full of ambition, and Cerezo naturally hopes that Gao Bo can put his ambition on Atletico Madrid to realize.

Cerezo wants to tie him up with a long-term contract, and even after Atletico Madrid's title, Cerezo publicly declared that he wants him to become Atletico Madrid's Ferguson.

Gao Bo is almost 30 years old this year, and even if he retires at 60, there will still be 30 years to go.

Gao Bo was a little resistant to signing a long-term contract.

He knows that the current era is full of impetuousness, even Ferguson, when he first took over the coaching whip of Manchester United, he was almost fired because of the problem of results.

Atletico Madrid's results are good now, but what about a few years from now?

Any team has a so-called championship cycle.

Sometimes it's five or six years, sometimes it's just three or four years.

It's not because the players' ability has declined, it's because the players who have won everything, they have lost their hunger for titles, and that's also human nature.

And if in a few years, Atletico Madrid's current group of players is famous, and they have everything, I am afraid it will inevitably be a problem of hunger decline.

At that time, if Gao Bo wants to continue to maintain the competitiveness of the team, I am afraid that he can only sell this batch of his children, and then introduce a group of new players to rebuild a team.

Gao Bo didn't know if he would be able to settle down at that time, so he simply accepted a 1+1 contract extension.

Atletico Madrid and Gao Bo signed a one-year extension, with the option to add another year, and if both parties are interested in it then, this one-year contract will also give both sides a buffer.

In terms of salary, Gao Bo signed the first contract with Atletico Madrid with an annual salary of 2.8 million euros, which was very good for a manager of a third-tier team to become the manager of a top-tier team for the first time.

And because Gao Bo unexpectedly led Atletico Madrid to win the double of the Copa del Rey and La Liga, this salary is obviously not worthy of a manager of Gao Bo's level.

He is now a very famous coach in La Liga and even in Europe, and the coach naturally has to have the status of a famous coach.

For example, Jose Mourinho, who earns up to 10 million euros a year after tax at Real Madrid!

And Pep Guardiola is also about the same salary as Mourinho.

Compared with these two, Gao Bo's 2.8 million yuan is too shabby....

Even if Gao Bo doesn't mention it himself, Mendes will bring it up, after all, at this point, if Gao Bo is still the rookie contract of 2.8 million, isn't this an insult to his famous agent.

And after the end of this season, Gao Bo has no shortage of suitors.

And now it's all big teams that are pursuing him!

In fact, before the season is over, there are teams in the Premier League who have approached Mendes to knock on the possibility of Gao Bo leaving Atletico Madrid and returning to England.

And that team is Manchester United!

According to Mendes's statement to Gao Bo, Ferguson wants Gao Bo to be his successor, for which Ferguson is even willing to make the decision to retire early.

Become the manager of Manchester United?

For a moment, Gao Bo was indeed moved.

But he immediately abandoned the idea.

Because he's just starting out, he's led the team to the Champions League, and he's got a squad that's young enough to be strong!

This season, he can lead a well-established team to the Champions League.

Let go of Atletico Madrid, which is just starting here, and go to Manchester United, where the squad is aging, and the core players are all big names in the dressing room. If Gao Bo wants to take over Manchester United, he will encounter a lot of resistance in the dressing room alone.

Since Gao Bo has no plans to leave Atletico Madrid for the time being, Mendes will no longer push in this direction. He focused his work on Gao Bo's contract extension.

Who is the most important person for Atletico Madrid right now?

Naturally, it's the head coach Gao Bo!

Everyone believes that if Gao Bo leaves Atletico Madrid now, I am afraid that this team he built with his own hands will soon face the danger of turmoil and disintegration!

Atletico Madrid achieved such an achievement last season, and the biggest credit naturally belongs to Gao Bo!

Cerezo and others did not deny this either.

So Mendes' request is simple, since Gao Bo is the most important role in the team, then he should naturally be the highest-paid player in the team!

Aguero has received 8 million, and if Gao Bo still has 2.2 million, this seems to be interpreted to some extent that in the eyes of the club, Aguero is more important than Gao Bo?

Therefore, Mendes finally negotiated a new contract with Atletico Madrid, and Gao Bo's annual salary reached 9 million euros after tax!

When Gao Bo heard Mendes say the number nine million to him personally, even Gao Bo was a little dumbfounded.

Two million eight million, nine million.

This increase seems to be a bit too much.

"Don't be surprised, high!" Mendes didn't have the same unseen world as Gao Bo.

"To be able to lead a team other than Real Madrid and Barcelona to win the La Liga double in the season proves that you are one of the best managers in the world! You even deserve a higher price than this! ”

Mendes said.

Gao Bo also heard the hidden meaning of Mendes's words.

"It's true that you can get a higher annual salary than that at Mentot, but do you know what I'm going to give up? I'm going to give up a super squad that can compete for the number one in the world and build a better squad than this, but it's going to be much harder. ”

"Okay, okay...."Mendes waved his hand.

Maybe that's the difference between him and Gao Bo.

In Mendes' view, the annual salary is the only thing that can justify the manager's status.

In Gao Bo's view, there may be more things worth pursuing besides salary.......
