Chapter 208: Why Kick?
At the end of the training, Wen Zhihao picked up his backpack and shouted to Liang Xin next to him: "What are you doing, let's go, call it a day and eat." ”
Liang Xin's movement to pack his backpack was very slow, and he looked preoccupied, Wen Zhihao packed up and was about to leave from the exit, but Liang Xin suddenly stopped him behind his back: "Hey...... Zhihao, I'm still the most trustworthy here, I'm in trouble, help me come up with an idea. ”
Wen Zhihao stopped, turned his head to look at him, and asked, "Figured it out?" I told you earlier, if you have a problem, I will solve it for you, although I am not a jack of all trades, but I came out two years earlier than you, and it is no problem to send you some experience. But let's talk about it first, there is no need to talk about emotional problems, I am also a little white, maybe I have to learn from you. ”
Liang Xin shook his head: "No, you think too much." It's just that I didn't have a very pleasant quarrel with my agent during this time...... Before we met yesterday, we had a fight on the phone. ”
Wen Zhihao frowned when he heard this. He has also heard a lot about the disagreements and even estrangements between players and agents, and the most feared thing is that the agent is relatively strong or has some of his own small abacus, which will have a huge impact on the player himself. He agreed to be Saki his agent in the first place, in large part because he would fully respect his opinion. It seems that Liang Xin did not have such good luck.
"You seem to be a strong agent! Let's go, eat first, and talk to me about what's going on later. ”
At the dinner table, Liang Xin didn't hide it anymore, and gave Wen Zhihao a detailed description of the ins and outs like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and Wen Zhihao understood when he listened to it, it was a matter of future choice. To put it bluntly, Liang Xin is facing the problem of choosing his next home.
Since being promoted to PSV Eindhoven's first team last season, the club has offered Liang Xin a four-year contract with an annual salary of 2 million euros. PSV Eindhoven has always been very optimistic about Liang Xin's future, but as a Eredivisie club, it is the norm to sell players to make a profit, and PSV Eindhoven obviously knows that Liang Xin cannot be chained to the team all the time. So they added a €4 million liquidated damages clause to Liang's new contract, which can be activated at any time, and PSV Eindhoven must agree to the transfer during the window as long as it exceeds the maximum penalty cap of 10%.
PSV Eindhoven obviously underestimated Liang Xin's growth rate, and he didn't expect that in the second year of his contract, a number of clubs had already made offers. Ajax's first tentative offer of 2.4 million euros was rejected by PSV Eindhoven, and potential players must not be sold to title rivals, and PSV Eindhoven's top management also laughed at Ajax's whimsical and brain disease.
Eindhoven did not pay enough attention, half a month later, Ajax's second offer, directly rose by 500,000 euros, close to three million euros The offer made the Eindhoven senior management jump, but this is only the beginning. Bundesliga teams, which have always had a soft spot for Asian players, are also starting to join the fray. Borussia Dortmund's bid of €3.5 million is close to the red line for activating liquidated damages, while Schalke 04, Hamburg and Hannover 96 are also offering similar prices to Dortmund. The Eindhoven hierarchy was really nervous. They have been at the top of the Eredivisie this season, eight points clear of second-placed Ajax, and their hopes of regaining the league title after a year are very high, and they must not afford to lose their main midfielders at this time. The club's top brass immediately approached Liang's agent, hoping to re-sign a contract before the offer for more than liquidated damages appeared. PSV Eindhoven promised to significantly increase Liang's salary. But the other party is not very interested. The agent seems to have other plans for Liang Xin's future.
"So your agent wants you to go to the Bundesliga?" Wen Zhihao asked casually.
Liang Xin was quite angry when he talked about this: "If he really asked me to go to the Bundesliga, it would be fine, and I thank him." Even if it's a team like Hannover 96, it's a big five league. Two days later, the club came to talk to me and said that he was actually in contact with the Russian team, and if it wasn't for the president of our club to keep me, I wouldn't know about it. ”
Wen Zhihao really felt sad for Liang Xin, and he didn't have to think that the other party must have done the work of the agent first, and used the agent to get the players and the club. But Liang Xin obviously didn't meet a good agent, and the Russian Premier League is better than Liang Xin's current Eindhoven?
A little common sense knows that the trick is a deception, and the only logic that makes sense is that the other party values the interests more than the player's own career prospects.
Wen Zhihao didn't rush to make an evaluation, and then asked, "What happened later?" ”
Liang Xin replied: "I guess he has almost reached an agreement with the other side, and then he talked to me, I knew that it was Sparta Moscow who wanted me, what he said was good, I can play in the Champions League over there, and I can play in the Europa League this year, and I make a lot of money." The point is that I can't swallow this breath, I feel like I've been sold in the dark. PSV Eindhoven have a good chance of winning the title this year, so I'll have to wait until the end of the season to find a better home, just like you. ”
"If you have to go, do you have a team you want to go to?"
"Then it must give priority to giants like Real Madrid and Bayern, who can win the championship if they go. Of course, at the level of Dortmund or Atletico Madrid, you can also consider giving more money. Liang Xin slowly confided out, and his mood was much better, joking about Wen Zhihao's choice, in his heart, Atletico Madrid was still inferior to Real Madrid.
Wen Zhihao paused slightly after hearing this, raised his head and asked, "Liang Xin, why did you play football in the first place?" Make hay? Famous? Or do you want to do something out of love? ”
Liang Xin didn't know how to answer for a while, he digressed, does it have anything to do with me?
Wen Zhihao continued: "If you want to be an eye-catching footballer, then you bite you to go to Dortmund now, and I believe that Dortmund will provide an offer that will allow the club to release him and the agent to change his mind." The sensation should be no less than my joining Atletico, but the price is that you may watch a water cooler for a few years first. ”
"If you want to take responsibility for the future of your career, I would advise you to fulfill your contract with PSV Eindhoven. You are the same year as me, seventeen years old. When you are twenty years old in three years, and think about these things in the last year, if you are stable, you will not have fewer or worse choices than you do now. After all, the Eredivisie has a reputation for developing young players. ”
Liang Xin was a little anxious: "My brother, don't say these useless things, I'm asking you how you got my agent now, I don't want to go to that cold place where only bears can stay." ”
Wen Zhihao glanced at Liang Xin: "You're afraid of a fart!" If you don't sign it, I don't believe he can cut off your hand and sign it for you! …… If you want to minimize trouble, it's okay, I'll teach you a trick that's pretty much the same thing you do on the field. ”
Liang Xin's eyes suddenly lit up, looking at Wen Zhihao's mysterious eyes, he felt that he had some crooked ideas, and took the initiative to put his ears on them.
