Although with three rounds of the league remaining, Schalke 04, which is nine points behind Hamburg, theoretically has the possibility of overtaking Hamburg to enter the top four of the Bundesliga. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, with a difference of 10 goals between the two teams and Hamburg facing Wolfsburg and Hoffenheim in the next two rounds of the league, Schalke 04, who were unable to win Hamburg at their home stadium, has actually lost the opportunity to overtake the opponent in advance.

Although Hamburg has basically qualified for the Champions League next season. However, thanks to the victory of Bayer Leverkusen, the opponent for the third place in the league, Hamburg has only two points left in the lead.

With the two teams in the final round of the Bundesliga, it is still unclear whether Hamburg will be able to qualify for the Champions League in third place.

Although, even if they finish fourth in the league, they can still qualify for the main tournament by participating in the Champions League play-offs. But there are some uncertainties.

For a club like Hamburg, which is not financially strong, if it cannot directly qualify for the Champions League, it will inevitably not be able to invest a lot of money in the summer transfer period. In that case, if the team fails to qualify for the Champions League, the club will be under huge financial pressure.

Therefore, it is only after the end of the season that qualification for the Champions League is confirmed that the Hamburg hierarchy will be able to make a splash during the summer transfer window and take the squad up a notch.

However, Hamburg finally got the chance to show their strength on this stage after many years of absence from the Champions League. Even if they fail to qualify for the Champions League, there will be at least a few million euros in appearance fees, as well as home ticket revenue.

So, after the away draw against Schalke 04, Fink still gave the players a day off as usual.

――――――

On Monday, Feng Quan came to the gym of the Hamburg club on the day when his teammates were "enjoying the holiday".

After nearly 3 hours of physical training, Feng Quan was ready to board the Jonas Kessler BMW X5 to Tongfu Inn for lunch.

However, as soon as Feng Quan got into Kessler's car, his cell phone rang. After taking out the phone and pressing the answer button, a familiar voice came from the handset of the phone.

"Hey, Wind, what are you thinking about our invitation?" Matthias Summerr said with a smile.

After a moment's hesitation, Feng Quan said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Matthias, I'm afraid I won't be in the Bundesliga next season." ”

"Why!? Do you think that our FC Bayern has not given you enough treatment? Or do you think we can't give you the stage you need? ”

Since he hadn't thought that Feng Quanquan would refuse his invitation, Summerer was surprised to learn of his reply.

"Hehe, of course it's not a matter of treatment. The weekly salary of 100,000 euros is already more than 3 times of my current salary. Feng Quan smiled bitterly.

"What is the reason for that?"

"Well, how to say? Hamburg gave me the opportunity to play in European football, and the guidance of Tosten (Fink), Lars (Bittencourt) and Rafael (Van der Vaart) helped me progress from an Asian player to the heights I am now. So ......"

After sorting out his thoughts, Feng Quan said with a little bitterness: "So, I don't want to see the day when I am an enemy of them. ”

"Wind, your idea is very reasonable. But IMHO, if you judge from the perspective of a mature professional, your idea is very unprofessional. Summerer said very politely.

"I'm sorry, Matthias, but I'm also very aware that my ideas are unprofessional. But for me at present, even if I really choose to join Bayern Munich, I am afraid that it will be difficult to play my full strength when facing my old friends. So, as much as I'm very interested in joining Bayern, at least for next season, I can't accept being an enemy of Hamburg. ”

In fact, after encountering the opponent's "bloodbath" at the Allianz Arena, receiving an invitation from Summer, then meeting with Guardiola, and getting the promise of the other party's "future core of the team", Feng Quan is still very inclined to join Bayern Munich Club.

However, after the team was sent off in the first half of last week's away game against Schalke 04, the team worked together to stubbornly draw in the second half, and for the first time, Feng Quan felt a strong sense of belonging to the Hamburg team from the bottom of his heart.

Although Feng Quan himself is very clear, as a professional footballer, in order to achieve the goals in his heart, he should not be bound by the so-called "teammate friendship". But for Feng Quan, who has been very emotional since he was a child, at least at this stage, it is really difficult for him to be "ruthless" in the game against his former teammates.

In fact, if it weren't for the club's limited financial resources, even if it was difficult to break through to the Champions League next season, Feng Quan even hoped that he could stay at the Hamburg club and work hard with his teammates to restore the glory of the old Bundesliga powerhouse.

However, reason told Feng Quan that if he wanted to achieve the goal of winning the Ballon d'Or, the strength of the Hamburg club's players and financial ability would not be enough to provide it with sufficient support. Therefore, the only club that joins one of Europe's top giants can be regarded as having a platform to touch the Ballon d'Or.

Although Bayern Munich FC is stronger than another Atletico Madrid club that has been in contact with Fengquan in terms of player strength and club finances. However, out of consideration of "not wanting to be an enemy of the Hamburg club", Feng Quan had to temporarily give up joining Bayern Club.

――――――

After ending the call with Summer, Feng Quan then dialed his agent, Zhao Shijie.

"Brother Zhao, I've already thought about the transfer...... Hehe, have you already guessed my answer? It seems that there is nothing wrong with choosing you as my agent...... Well, okay, then please talk to the Hamburg club......"

After hanging up the phone, Feng Quan closed his eyes and leaned back quietly in the comfortable leather seat.

Although he had already made up his mind in his heart, when he really rejected the invitation of Bayern Club, he still couldn't help but have a trace of regret in his heart. After all, being able to get an invitation from a European giant club of Bayern Munich's level is in itself a proof of the player's strength. It is not an exaggeration to say that joining a top club is a "stepping stone" to the Golden Globe Awards.

However, after closing his eyes, Feng Quan thought of the Atletico Madrid club he was "about to join", and the regret in his heart couldn't help but fade a little.

Although Atletico Madrid's annual salary of 80,000 euros is not as generous as that of Bayern, considering the tax rate gap between the two countries, Fengquan has not actually suffered much in terms of economic losses.

In addition, as a "traverser", Feng Quan also clearly knows that next season's Atletico Madrid club not only won the long-lost La Liga championship, but also entered the final of the Champions League with a big surprise.

Moreover, if it weren't for the referee in that final who was suspected of "favoritism" and gave 4 minutes of injury time, I am afraid that Atletico Madrid's city rival Real Madrid would have been difficult to equalize in regular time, and then stage a good extra-time stunner.

In fact, long before meeting with representatives of Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid, no less than ten clubs in Europe's "big four" (although Manchester United and Chelsea in the English Premier League are also interested in Fengquan, but due to the UK's labor certification policy, they had to reluctantly choose to give up) clubs, expressed their interest in introducing Fengquan to Zhao Shijie.

Among these clubs interested in Feng Quan, in addition to Bayern and Atletico Madrid, there is also AC Milan Club, which Feng Quan has loved since childhood.

When Feng Quan heard that his favorite AC Milan club had sent him an invitation, he was so excited that he almost lost sleep.

Although the strength of the players and the financial situation of AC Milan today are far from comparable to those of their peak. But for Feng Quan, who grew up watching legendary stars such as Shevchenko, Kaka, and Inzaghi, it was also a childhood dream to be able to join this old giant club.

Therefore, even if AC Milan Club informed Zhao Shijie that he could only provide Feng Quan with a weekly salary of up to 50,000 euros, he was willing to join without hesitation.

However, when Zhao Shijie began to make further contact with the Milan club, the other party's approach made Feng Quan feel "sad".

At that time, after Zhao Shijie met with the general manager of the Milan club, Galliani said straight to the point: "Although Feng's performance in the Bundesliga is very impressive, and in terms of statistics, it has become one of the world's stars. But in any case, he is just a 19-year-old young player. Since he is a young player, it is unclear whether he will be able to continue his previous performances after other clubs have studied him sufficiently. What's more, the defensive intensity of Serie A is far from being comparable to that of the Bundesliga. ”

In this way, for AC Milan, the introduction of this young player will undoubtedly bear a lot of risk. Therefore, we can probably only bid a maximum of 15 million euros for the Hamburg club's offer. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shijie immediately sneered: "I'm sorry, Mr. Galliani. Germany's "Transfer Market" estimates that Feng Quan's worth has reached more than 20 million euros. So, don't you think the offer of 1500 euros is ridiculous? ”

"For a young Chinese player like Feng Quan, being able to join a giant club like AC Milan will undoubtedly greatly enhance his influence in world football. Subsequently, his personal business value will also rise at the same time. The amount of commercial sponsorship he can receive will also increase significantly. ”

After a pause, Galliani said with a sly face: "Moreover, if you release news in China, just say that Feng Quan very much wants to join our club, but just need some domestic entrepreneurs to help AC Milan Club solve the problem of recruiting funds, I believe that there will be many Chinese entrepreneurs who are willing to help Feng and fulfill his dream of joining a European giant." ”

If before Galliani said this, Zhao Shijie was only disgusted by the conceit of the old Italian man, now he feels angry.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Galliani." Although he still maintained his politeness, the expression on Zhao Shijie's face was obviously inconsistent with his words. "I think it's a waste of time for you and me to continue talking. Indeed, Milan FC, with its illustrious history, lives up to its name as one of Europe's top clubs. But with all due respect, you're not the only European club interested in Fengquan. Moreover, the treatment and offer they give are obviously more sincere than that of the Milan club. ”

After that, Zhao Shijie stood up from his seat, nodded politely to Galliani, and then left the table angrily.

In fact, at the beginning, when AC Milan Club informed Zhao Shijie that he could only increase his weekly salary by 50,000 euros for Fengquan, he was ready to "give up" contact with the other party. It was only because of the "Milan plot" of Fengquan, the "party", that Zhao Shijie had a meeting with Galliani.

Now, under the circumstance that Feng Quan has sacrificed a large part of his personal interests, AC Milan has asked Zhao Shijie to "help solve" the transfer fee. It really made him unbearable.

It is true that for some entrepreneurs who "love" football in China, it is not very difficult to spend 5 million or even more euros to help AC Milan Club "fill" the funding gap and indirectly help Feng Quan realize his dream of joining a giant. Moreover, for such a "generous" entrepreneur, it may be possible to receive some "compensation" from the state or local government.

However, for Feng Quan, who has already contributed world-class player data in the Bundesliga, he can be favored by virtue of his own strength, rather than achieving the goal of joining a giant club by "pulling sponsorship".

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Shijie feels that Galliani's "proposal" is simply an insult to Fengquan's strength, and he is angry.

In fact, in the eyes of Italians, who have serious racist ideas, being able to "take a fancy to" a Chinese player from a "football desert" area is in itself very worthy of him. What's more, for AC Milan, which is in a tight financial situation, the offer of 1,500 euros is already "very sincere".

Therefore, for Zhao Shijie's "ignorance of lifting" move, Galliani did not have the slightest regret except for sneering.

"Humph! When you get a 'double-double' in the Bundesliga, do you think you're amazing? I don't know how to lift Chinese......."
