Chapter 527 - A Comfortable Assistant Is Important

At the end of the season, it's time for the transfer.

The transfer work of the club is very complicated, and to get the 'treble' Millwall, the first thing to determine is which players will definitely stay, which players are unsure of their intentions, which players are sure to leave, and the team will also eliminate those players who cannot keep up with their performance.

The renewal of the club's contract has already begun.

Those players who perform well, whose salary and performance are obviously inconsistent, will definitely get a new contract if they stay, and players who have signed blockbuster contracts also need to determine their intention to stay, and some marginal players in the team, whether to sign a new contract, or whether to stay, let Zhang Yang decide.

In the Millwall team, there are still many players who will renew their contracts, terminate their contracts, and leave with normal transfers.

The first is the goalkeeper position.

Veteran Hislop is sure to leave, he can't continue to play in the main team at Millwall, and with his age as a substitute for a season, he basically has to wait for retirement.

Instead of opting for a one-year extension, Heatrop decided to leave on a free transfer.

Graham has been promoted to number one goalkeeper and is sure to sign a new contract.

In addition to Heathrop and Graham, there is also a young goalkeeper in the first team, Vito Mannone, who is only 19 years old, played a few games for Millwall's youth team last season, and made one appearance for the first team, or in the English League Cup, he has little experience, and if he wants to leave, he can only go to the lower leagues, the club asked about intentions, and Mannone decided to stay and wait for his chance.

In addition, Li Wei, who was loaned to the Serie B League, is ready to return when his contract expires, and the good news is that he has entered the Chinese Olympic team, and he has entered the national team at such a young age, which also makes Li Wei have great expectations.

However, Li Wei was still unable to obtain a labor certification, and with his qualifications, he could not apply for the 'genius clause', so he could only continue to be loaned.

Millwall's back line has been solid, with several key players – Zambrotta, Darren Ward, Konchesky, Arbeloa, Wes Morgan and others – all determined to stay.

Among them, Koncheski and Arbeloa received salary increases, and Darren Ward signed a new contract, with a weekly salary of 70,000 pounds, which is already about the same as Zambrotta, and this level of salary is definitely high for a defender.

In the past season, Alan Hutton and Traore performed very averagely, and Zhang Yang also used the new ability 'Lucky Prophet', and learned that Traore's 'Health Luck Index Rating' in the next season was only 53 points, far below the normal range of about 70, and Traore could only be put up for sale.

Zhang Yang has not yet decided to list Hutton, or let him continue to stay in the team for observation, after all, Hutton is barely a qualified substitute.

There are also big changes in midfield.

Veterans Hamann and Smitchell left on free transfers, Sean Davies applied for a transfer, and veteran Pire stayed, but he is older and his fitness is a little difficult to keep up with in the late season, and the left side will definitely need to be added.

Zhang Yang used the 'lucky prophet' to judge Quaresma's 'health luck index rating', which is still very unoptimistic, with a value of only 61, and Quaresma himself intends to go to the Spanish or Portuguese league, but he still feels uncomfortable with the tough style of the Premier League.

This may also be the reason why Quaresma is prone to injury.

Zhang Yang thought about it for a long time.

Whether Quaresma leaves or not, in fact, is decided by Zhang Yang, he does a psychological reassurance work, Quaresma will probably choose to stay, but in the end Zhang Yang still decided to let Quaresma leave, after all, Quaresma is too easy to get injured, and if he continues to stay, he may suffer a big injury, maybe if he leaves to other leagues, the 'Health Luck Index Rating' may be improved?

Maybe.

This aspect of the flamboyance is also uncertain, but the values will definitely change after leaving the team, because the effect of the foresight will always change.

Football matches are proof of this, and environmental change is also one thing.

For example, if Quaresma retires suddenly, the 'Health Luck Index Rating' will definitely be greatly improved, and if you don't play football anymore, the health risk will naturally be greatly reduced.

Finally, there is the forward line, and the forward line is the most changeable.

After the Champions League final, Darren Bent considered leaving, it is no longer a private secret, Zhang Yang did not know Darren Bent's thoughts before, but there are many reports in the media, in fact, it is not a big deal, the players who perform well in the team will have a lot of transfer news, Darren Bent is the leading scorer, naturally there will be a lot of poaching, and it has also attracted a lot of reports.

Darren Bent's idea is the key.

Zhang Yang didn't know if Darren Bent wanted to leave, but the club contacted Darren Bent, and his agent expressed the meaning that Darren Bent would have to get a bigger contract if he wanted to stay.

How big is the bigger contract?

At present, Darren Bent's weekly salary has exceeded 80,000 pounds, and the highest is the top salary level of 100,000 pounds, which can be a long time with the world's top stars.

The club knows that, and Darren Bent certainly knows it.

The meaning of Bent's agent is obvious, Bent is thinking about leaving, maybe the big club attracted him with the top salary, or maybe he wants to change the environment, in short, Bent is planning to leave.

The impact of Bente's departure is still very large, and Wilkinson, who got the news, was a little panicked, he ran to the head coach's office, pushed open the door and said to Zhang Yang, "You know what? Bent's agent said that he also wanted a raise, and I think he meant that he wanted to manipulate Bent's transfer. ”

Zhang Yang touched his forehead, frowned and said in distress, "I know!" ”

"I don't know if Bent himself wants to leave, or if the agent wants to go, I think I should ask, maybe they just want a raise?" Wilkinson said comfortingly.

"He knew he couldn't get a raise! At least not now! Zhang Yang said, "His contract was signed last year, and it is already the team's maximum salary, of course, this aspect is what you should consider, if you are willing to give Bent a salary increase and let him stay, I don't care." ”

Wilkinson suddenly stopped talking.

He was a little panicked before, Bent was the leading scorer, the league and the Champions League double golden boot, Millwall's signature star, he never thought that Bent would leave, but now that he thinks about it carefully, the club can't give Bent a salary increase, Bent's agent said that there will be no other possibility, and he must be planning to leave.

"What then?" Wilkinson said, "I've only spoken to Bent a few times, or why don't you call and ask?" You should get along well. ”

Wilkinson's meaning is to let Zhang Yang persuade Bent to continue to stay in the team with his emotional relationship, and Zhang Yang also feels that he should make a phone call to confirm the news, what if it is really Bent's economic man who intends to hype, or other reasons?

The call came right away.

It took more than ten seconds on the other side before he pressed the answer button, and Zhang Yang asked bluntly, "Darren?" Are you planning to leave? ”

“……”

The other side is stumbling, and it seems that they don't know how to express it.

Zhang Yang continued to ask, "You just tell the truth, which club?" ”

“……”

Bent remained silent for a long moment before he said, "Boss, I'm sorry, they came up with a big contract, and I couldn't find a reason to say no. There are a few teams that have contacted me, but I want to stay in England and Manchester United and Tottenham are very sincere. ”

"Manchester United? Not bad! ”

Zhang Yang sighed casually, feeling a little regretful in his heart that Bent was actually bought by money.

O evil money!

Zhang Yang was not angry, but chatted like a friend, and asked with interest, "How big is the contract?" Can you tell us about that? ”

“……”

Bent definitely didn't expect the coach to ask such a private question, he hesitated for a long time, but still said, "Tottenham promised to give me six million pounds after tax, as well as a large signing fee." ”

"It's a big deal!"

Zhang Yang sighed, six million pounds after tax, and the average weekly salary is more than 110,000 pounds, such a high salary has reached the world's top level, no wonder Bent has no reason to refuse.

Zhang Yang didn't try to persuade him, like a friend, he discussed a few words with Bent, only to suddenly ask, "If the club gave you the same contract, would you still leave?" ”

“……”

Bent hesitated.

"Okay, I got it. I wish you all the best for the future. Zhang Yang didn't give Bent a chance to answer, so he put down the phone directly.

Zhang Yang didn't think about keeping Bent, but he almost knew Bent's heart, and for two seasons, he had always valued Bent, and he still knew Bent's character very well.

This guy is very low-key on weekdays, and there are not many times when the team speaks, but he still has a lot of ideas in his heart, and if he wants to leave Millwall, it is not just the temptation of high salary, in fact, it is not much higher to say that it is a high salary, Millwall and Bent's contract has a salary increase clause, and the second year will be 15% higher than the first year's salary, and so on, next season is the second year, and in the third year, Bent's weekly salary will exceed 100,000 pounds.

This is one of the reasons why the club is unable to offer a higher contract.

Bent is on a four-year contract, his salary has reached its peak, and there is no room for improvement.

So why did Bent leave, even if the club offered the same contract, he didn't just say 'stay', but became hesitant?

Pressure!

The outside world knows that Bent is Millwall's leading goalscorer, but his pressure is not small, and there are many outstanding players in the team, and his direct rival Vardy is getting better and better year by year.

Over the past season, Jamie Vardy's average performance was no worse than Bent's, and he is still improving.

Bent must have felt the pressure.

So next season, will Bent still be Millwall's 'leading goalscorer'?

Choosing to leave at the most glorious time is the best choice, with the aura of 'league and Champions League double golden boot', leaving Millwall to join other teams, getting the ideal big contract, and continuing to be the leading scorer in the team is the most advantageous choice.

Zhang Yang believed that someone must have analyzed all this for Bent, which also prompted him to decide to leave.

Wilkinson couldn't see much of this, and he felt sorry for Bent's departure, and complained a little anxiously, "Why don't you persuade more." ”

Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders and said directly, "Get ready for the transfer work!" Talk to Manchester United, talk to Tottenham, they should all have an offer, right? ”

Wilkinson nodded, "Manchester United's offer is 40 million pounds, Tottenham, 42 million. ”

'The transfer job, you decide, but I think Bent is inclined to join Tottenham, so the club can ask a little bit more. None of this has anything to do with me. ”

Zhang Yang showed his attitude.

Wilkinson was very surprised, pure businessmen are qualified actors, he is not so anxious as he appears, but some expect Bent to leave, it will be a rather heavyweight deal, and the club will have a huge amount of money in the account.

Wilkinson did this just to appease the flamboyant heart and show that Bent's departure was his own choice and had nothing to do with the club.

When he saw Zhang Yang's 'it doesn't matter' attitude, Wilkinson breathed a sigh of relief and was also very surprised.

Darren Bent!

That's the team's leading scorer!

Shouldn't a manager be furious that the leading goalscorer is leaving?

Wilkinson didn't know that Zhang Yang led the team to win, and the proportion of star play was very small.

The team played well, and the biggest credit was publicity.

This is the praise given to Zhang Yang by the fans, even what they don't know is that Zhang Yang has the greatest credit, not to mention the formulation of tactics, preparation for the war and the like, if there is no Zhang Yang's command, the team's results, not to mention will be very poor, but it will definitely drop a big notch.

That's the crux of the matter.

So Zhang Yang doesn't care too much about players leaving, even if he is the core of the team, he can find a replacement that is not bad, and he is guaranteed to play well, it is a pity for Bent to leave, but Vardy is not bad, as long as Vardy is there, there is no need to introduce too big stars.

Bent didn't need to worry too much about leaving.

————

Zhang Yang doesn't care about Bent's departure, but the impact of Bent's departure is still very big, on the one hand, he is Millwall's leading goalscorer, he has just won the Golden Boot honor in the league and the Champions League, and he is also in the best period of age, as long as it is negotiated, it will definitely be an amazing big deal.

On the other hand, Bent has a lot of influence among the fans.

Although Bent wants to leave on his own, there will definitely be fans who are dissatisfied, and the club has not gone so far as to tear up his face with Bent, and must also help calm public opinion.

The addition of the forward line is the most secondary.

Millwall have a younger Jamie Vardy, Bent is away and Vardy is backing up, and with the addition of a striker of some quality, the forward line is restructured.

Zhang Yang is not worried about the problem of forward recruitment.

What the transfer market lacks is a strong midfielder, defender, and defensive players are always in demand, but the strange thing is here, the media and fans always like to stare at the front players, a multi-million pound striker, can cause a series of reports, but in fact, the striker is easy to buy.

The way Zhang Yang formulates the target of reinforcement is a bit incomprehensible.

Frederick is the 'first assistant' in the recruitment work, and Zhang Yang's goal for Humpty Dumpty is to collect as much information as possible about players who have been listed or may be transferred, "full name, age, photo, experience, performance data of the past season, etc., the more detailed the information, the better, the most important is two positions, one is the left and right wingers, and the other is the striker." It's easy to add to our back line and the goalkeeper needs a substitute too. ”

Gathering player profiles is not an easy task.

Some big-name players are easy to find because there is a lot of media coverage, but apart from the top five European leagues, such as the Eredivisie, Portugal, Belgian league, and then Brazil and Argentina, there is no need to find the information of outstanding players.

If you go to find a player's information, even if the player is unknown, you can buy it from a professional scout, but so much information, involving hundreds or thousands of players, it takes time and energy.

Frederick's head grew when he heard this, and he couldn't help but complain, "I had already booked my plane ticket and was ready to go on vacation!" ”

"But you stayed." Zhang Yang tugged at the corners of his mouth and compared three fingers with his hand, "For triple salary!" ”

This is also an important reason why Frederick stayed.

British labour law is very protective of holidays, even if Frederick is an assistant coach and there is no certainty about working hours, but the contract he signed is still vague about vacation time.

When the team has finished all the games, the assistant coach will have 40 to 60 days off.

With Wise gone, his work was too busy and Frederick could only 'work overtime', but he could choose to continue to take time off because his leave was protected by law and the club had no right to force him to continue working.

The most important reason why Frederick chose to stay was that the club gave him triple his salary.

Now working for a week, which is equivalent to three weeks on weekdays, Humpty Dumpty decisively refunded the ticket and decided to stay and continue to earn pounds, and earn back the holiday expenses in advance, and there is still a lot of savings.

There is absolutely no way Frederick can admit that he stayed for triple salary, "Don't talk about salary!" I'm for the club! It's a busy club at the moment and I have to stay, no one loves Millwall more than I do. ”

Zhang Yang wanted to vomit a little when he heard it, "Then you can return the extra money to the club." ”

"Nope! That's what I deserve. ”

Frederick's face was resolute and very righteous and awe-inspiring, which gave Zhang Yang a new perspective and understanding of this guy's cheekiness.

How can an assistant coach be thicker than a head coach?

This is very unreasonable.

Looking at the background of Frederick's departure, thinking about the coming season, to ask this Humpty Dumpty to be the first assistant, Zhang Yang made the decision to 'recruit': you must find a comfortable assistant!
