In the office, head coach Jurgen Klopp, sporting director Zolk, as well as Lin Yu and Alban, were all there.

What they are discussing here today is the matter of raising Lin Yu's salary.

For Lin Yu's performance, the club is very satisfied, especially the head coach Klopp, he really wants to keep Lin Yu, it is a matter of raising salary, he has also taken the initiative to mention it to the club's senior management many times, but it has not been decided, and today can be regarded as sitting here and having a good talk.

Lin Yu's current annual salary is 100,000 euros, which is definitely the lowest in the first team, but his performance is definitely not the worst, as far as the last few games are concerned, even if he is the best player, it is not an exaggeration, so this salary is obviously not enough grade.

Sports director Zolke discussed with Klopp and gave a price, that is, an annual salary of 500,000 euros, which is five times the previous one, and it can be said that the team is very generous to Lin Yu.

But when Alban heard this salary, he just smiled and said: "500,000 euros? Don't you think that's a bit too stingy? ”

Klopp smiled and asked, "Then how much do you say?" ”

Alban thought for a while and said: "Judging from Lin Yu's current performance, the annual salary should not be less than 1 million euros at least, and the goal bonus and winning bonus should be increased!" ”

"What!" Before Klopp could speak, Zolke couldn't help it, and he said loudly: "Don't make mistake, he has only played three official games for the team, and we can give him an annual salary of 500,000 euros, which is already very good, Mr. Alban, you used to be a scout for Dortmund, you should understand our financial situation, we don't like to waste money, so this negotiation doesn't need to go any further, unless you decide to lower your requirements." ”

"Mr. Director, you will regret it! Now I'm just asking for an annual salary of 1 million euros, but after a while, maybe it's more than that, I believe Lin Yu, he's definitely worth the price! After Alban said this, he directly pulled Lin Yu and left, he didn't want Lin Yu to open his mouth, mainly because he was afraid that Lin Yu would say something inappropriate, he could see that Lin Yu wanted to play in Dortmund, but in this way, it was tantamount to self-surrendering, which was very unfavorable to salary negotiations.

After Alban and Lin Yu left, Zorc could be said to be furious, and he said to Klopp: "I know you like that player very much, but you must not let him be too rampant, let him rest in the next few games, without him, we can still win the game." ”

"But I've made an appointment with him to start him." Klopp is not incomprehensible to the sports director's approach, but he really doesn't want to destroy Lin Yu in his own hands, not to mention that Lin Yu's liquidated damages are very small, if he wants to leave, any club can afford to pay that little liquidated damages for him, is it really worth giving up a talented player for a little salary?

"Isn't he hurt? Just let him rest for a little longer. Zorke said coldly.

Klopp sighed and nodded very reluctantly, although he is the head coach, many things are also involuntary.

Alban, who returned home, repeatedly told Lin Yu not to be soft, even if he couldn't play, don't be soft, and he must not compromise on salary, otherwise the club will think that you are a bully, and it will become more and more excessive.

"And what if they don't let me play?" Lin Yu smiled bitterly.

"You're out there, and if they really dare to do that, I'd recommend you move. If nothing else, Paris Saint-Germain will never give up a talented player for such a small salary. But if they put you on the pitch, you have to show that you are capable and make them feel that it is worth paying you that much. I'm a negotiator at best, and you're the only one who can really change their minds. Alban replied.

"Okay, let's see what happens." Lin Yu nodded, in fact, in his heart, he still really hopes to be able to play football, so a little salary, as long as he has fame and achievements, in fact, it is only a matter of time, but he is also very dissatisfied with the club's contempt for him, thinking that when Kagawa Shinji was in Dortmund, the club even gave him an annual salary of 3 million euros to retain him, and now he only wants 1 million, and he can't get it, is he not as good as a person who is not loyal to the team?

A few days after the end of the pay incident, Borussia Dortmund had their home game against Borussia Mönchenchen, and Lin Yu was left out of the squad on the pretext that he had not recovered from his injury, and he could only sit in the fan stands to watch the team's game.

In this game, Robert Lewandowski scored a hat-trick, Gotze and Reus both scored, and the team eventually won 5-0.

Behind the victory, many people forgot about Lin Yu's existence, and many reporters who were originally dissatisfied with Lin Yu began to be yin and yang.

They said that Dortmund is the same with or without Lin Yu, without Lin Yu, the offensive firepower will be more powerful, and Lin Yu is actually a burden in the frontcourt.

Whether you have scored in three games or not, whether you have scored a hat-trick in the Champions League group stage, everything seems to have been forgotten, and Lin Yu's past achievements seem to have vanished, leaving no impression on fans and media.

However, it is not uncommon to sneer at Lin Yu, but Lin Yu did not pay attention to it, in addition to normal training with the team, he has to go to the ball king cultivator to practice alone after returning home, talent and skills are one thing, but actual combat ability is another, training is to better combine the two.

His technique hasn't been put down, his body is still familiar with football, it's just that he hasn't had the opportunity to play.

Perhaps God will always create opportunities for those who are prepared, and after a hearty victory, Dortmund seem to have fallen into a slump.

Challenged Hamburg away, but lost 2:3, Lin Yu still did not enter the squad, he didn't even go to Hamburg to watch the team's game live, just watched the live broadcast of the game on TV.

After this game, not only fans began to miss Lin Yu, but even many media began to miss his arrogant but powerful Chinese teenager.

Klopp also misses Lin Yu, he likes Lin Yu's spirituality on the court, and when he watches Lin Yu's game, he can feel as if he is suddenly much younger.

But the club's senior management gave a death order, unless Lin Yu is willing to re-sign with an annual salary of 500,000, otherwise, Lin Yu cannot be allowed to play.

Another round of waiting, Dortmund away against Frankfurt, the result was a 3:3, which made the Hornets who were originally on par with Bayern Munich quickly fall behind, because as of the end of the sixth round, Dortmund is four wins, one draw and one loss, accumulating 13 points, while Bayern is winning all six rounds, accumulating 18 points, and 5 points away at the beginning of the season, which is definitely not good news for Dortmund, who is eager to defend the championship.
