Section 210 Transfers
Ko Soon-yao's absence in the 31st round of the game in Tokyo made the Japanese media a little dissatisfied: he had just won the Asian championship for the team, and at this time, he was the darling of the media. The media would love to see him play on the pitch and to see him continue to score goals in the game and show what he can do. As a result, he just won the AFC Champions League, and then went to Europe for a trial, which seems to mean that it is very likely that he will leave Asia this winter and play in Europe, which makes the media a little stunned.
Although they know that it is inevitable for good players to travel to Europe, they still hope to see Gao Shunyao play two more games. There are only four games left in the league, and it doesn't seem too late for the media to go to Europe after playing this airport.
But Wolfsburg doesn't see it that way. They still hope that Gao Shunyao can come to Europe for trial training and confirm the contract as soon as possible: Gao Shunyao's transfer is a transfer from Asia to Europe, and there are many matters in the transfer process. Contract negotiations, player trials, players looking for a place to live here in Europe, arranging their daily lives, it all takes time. It's already mid-November, and it doesn't hurt to schedule these things earlier.
Therefore, they asked Gao Shunyao to go to the trial earlier, and Tokyo did not stop this: this kind of thing is not effective if the team blocks it. The players really made up their minds to go, and the team couldn't stop them. The situation is better on the Japanese side, and there have been cases of players going to Europe for trials without permission on the South Korean side, although the team is thunderous, but they still have no way to stop the transfer of players.
Few of those who can afford to play in Europe want to stay in Asia. In particular, Japan's wage environment makes it impossible for them to retain people.
Cheng Fuhao knows this very well, so in the last few games in Tokyo, he also clearly told Gao Shunyao that he can play if he wants, and if he is afraid that the top scorer will not be safe, he wants to play two more games and score two goals to brush the scorer list, and the team is willing to fully cooperate with him. If you don't want to play, you can rest if you want to, after all, if he transfers, he will have to play directly with the Bundesliga for the second half of the season.
Gao Shunyao has not had a problem playing football so far, but that doesn't mean that he really has no problem at all, the training intensity of European teams is much heavier than that of Asian teams, especially Wolfsburg used to be the team brought out by Magath, and it must also be particularly important to this, and the increased training is also an extremely heavy test for the players.
Gao Shunyao was very grateful for Cheng Fuhao's arrangement, but Gao Shunyao didn't care about his concerns. He was quite confident in his body, and he didn't think that kind of thing could happen.
In fact, the medical examination after arriving at Wolfsburg seems to prove it.
If you want to transfer, the first step is naturally a medical examination and a trial. As an Asian player, Gao Shunyao's technical level, Wolfsburg did not have much hope. They mainly inspected Gao Shunyao's physical element. Many Asian players are considered to be substandard in Europe, and they take it more seriously.
After the physical examination, they soon found that Gao Shunyao's physique was not only qualified, but also very good, maybe he is not as good as a player like Lukaku who is famous for his body, but his physique should be able to adapt to the Bundesliga. It is precisely because of this result that they also said that if Gao Shunyao is willing, the two sides can already negotiate and sign a contract.
Gao Shunyao couldn't intervene in this process: he didn't know anything about it, so he could only entrust this matter to the agent.
Of course, if you want to sign any particularly big contract, let alone the agent, even Gao Shunyao knows that it is impossible. He is a newcomer, and looking for a contract with the team is naturally just an ordinary contract. Football has been around for decades, and many contracts have industry rules, and unless you're a top player, it's hard to force a team to sign a contract that doesn't meet the rules. Asking the team to sign an unequal treaty without playing a game has to be the level of the World Footballer, Gao Shunyao's strength, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hope to reach that level in this life, so what he can get should be an ordinary contract.
After all, this is not the other party begging Gao Shunyao, it can even be said that Gao Shunyao is begging the other party, where there may be so many harsh requirements.
Even so, though, there is something to be discussed about the details of the contract. For example, is there a minimum number of appearances a player has to make in a season? When a player is training with a new team, is the interpreter assigned by the team or is it found by himself? Portrait rights of players, do teams want to? When a player needs to participate in national team matches, commercial activities and other activities, whether the team will be allowed to go, and whether the player can wear the team's jersey to participate in some commercial contracts...... These issues should be carefully discussed.
These things, on the one hand, are related to the player's playing time, and on the other hand, it is related to the actual income of the player, which has a very important impact on the player. Especially like Gao Shunyao's situation, because Wolfsburg is quite turbulent this season, Dzeko is likely to leave in winter, and the call for Wolfsburg to change the coach is also higher and higher, who is the future head coach, what are the tactics, what role Gao Shunyao will play in the team, these things are all uncertain now, and the contract negotiation is naturally detailed.
Gao Shunyao has set a general direction for this at most. He didn't know any details. He just told his agent, try to get more playing time, try to find a way to get a good adaptation environment and integration environment for himself, as for the problem of money, you can completely back down, no matter what, playing in Germany is definitely more profitable than playing in Japan, Japan is used to earning low wages, who cares about this?
Sato just smiled at his request and didn't comment much, he knew Gao Shunyao's eagerness to transfer, but he didn't agree with his attitude that he didn't care about money. He told Gao Shunyao not to worry too much, he would get the best conditions for Gao Shunyao. Even, he has told Gao Shunyao in advance what his salary will be next year.
The initial result agreed between Wolfsburg and Sato is 600,000 euros.
This price surprised Gao Shunyao - 600,000 euros is a lot of money, and if it is converted into yen, it will be almost 100 million yen. I have really made a lot of progress in my income this time, I have made a lot more money than before, Europe and Japan are really two worlds, the highest income of Japanese football, it is not much higher than this, and now I am just a substitute, with such a salary level, no wonder the strength of European football is far better than that of Asia.
However, he was not particularly happy about this salary, because he also remembered another thing that Sato told him about some time ago.
After he got better and better, there were also some businesses in China looking to cooperate with him. Since the purge of the Football Association, there seem to be some signs of recovery in domestic football, and in recent times, many businesses have invested in domestic football. And this time, Gao Shunyao is looking for cooperation, is a business that has invested in the Chinese League A team in China, they said that if Gao Shunyao can go to Europe to play, then the business is willing to provide a sponsorship fee to the team that bought him. This approach is of great benefit to players playing in foreign countries, Gao Shunyao has only heard of people in Japan doing this, and now there are people around him who do this.
The development of domestic football is still very gratifying, and some people are willing to pay for football, which is the most important material foundation for the revitalization of football. Gao Shunyao is also very happy to see the development of domestic football, not to mention anything else, when he is old, maybe he will have to go back to China to play football and wait for retirement - Japan in Europe, all do this, Gao Shunyao also understands that after the level of a player declines, only his own compatriots will take you seriously, and it is inevitable that old players will return to China to play.
Of course, it was too early to say these things, and Gao Shunyao didn't want to hear anyone mention it. For example, that team also said some other things, such as that if Gao Shunyao does not mix well in Europe, he wants to give priority to them when he returns home. And they also guaranteed that if Gao Shunyao returned to China, he could get a contract that was several times more lucrative than playing in Europe. However, those words Gao Shunyao regarded as a fart for the time being: he hadn't arrived in Europe yet, so he said that he didn't play well and came back, which was a little too frustrating.
And if the impression is correct, it seems that the sponsorship fee given by the merchant is 600,000.
The sponsor provides a one-year sponsorship of 600,000 euros, and his own contract is also 600,000 euros - in this way, Gao Shunyao's playing in Europe is actually equivalent to bringing his own dry food, which also makes Gao Shunyao feel a little helpless.
However, he did not tell others about this dissatisfaction: after all, this matter is good for him, and he has no intention of destroying himself. And most importantly, the merchant also promised him an endorsement fee, which was about 6 million.
For Gao Shunyao, this is equivalent to an extra salary all of a sudden, and no matter how dissatisfied he is, he can be contained.
Although Gao Shunyao said that he didn't care much about how much salary the team gave him, it was to play football. But if it doesn't involve his career, he has no enmity with money, and he admits that he loves money very much. Especially in recent days, he has a lot of places to spend money, after arriving in Europe, he has to find a place to live, learn German, and have to start from scratch, of course, he also needs money, and if someone gives him money, he will naturally not refuse.
With money, you can live a better life in Germany. When Chen Sirou followed him in Japan, she didn't have a good time, and he also hoped that when he arrived in Germany, he could change a little.
Of course, he also handed over the matter of finding a house here to the agent. He didn't even have a full grasp of German, so naturally he couldn't help much. Moreover, the agent also told him that he should go back and prepare for the Club World Cup: although no one expects him to win the Club World Cup, if he can play well against European and American teams in that game, it will also have a good effect on him to gain a firm foothold in Europe.
After all, he needs a glorious appearance. And after that debut, it was when he stepped into Europa. R1152
