The Rhodes message is accurate.

Linson didn't have to wait long before he received a call from Aguilar: Málaga had decided to sign him, but there were some details that he needed to discuss in person. Moreover, since Lin Sen does not have an agent, his contract also needs to be negotiated by him personally.

On Monday, May 26, Linson returned to Málaga, this time in the main meeting room of the Malaga club, and the object changed.

Sanz Jr. did not show up this time, and Aguilar, who was empowered, was joined by another younger, Spaniard who did not look much older than Linson, who introduced himself as Livermore-Aguilar.

Aguilar? Lin Sen's heart moved, but the elder Aguilar quickly answered Lin Sen's question, Livermore was his son. Livermore's role now is the team's transfer advisor, whereas before that, he was supposed to be a sports manager. The reason for such a change is precisely the so-called details in Aguilar's mouth, in fact, this detail is not detailed at all, because this "detail" is precisely the only requirement that Lin Sen met before: transfer rights.

Málaga agreed in principle to hand over the transfer rights to Linsen, but it is clear that the other side still wants to have reservations in the way. Therefore, Aguilar put forward a plan that looks beautiful: that is, within the controllable range of the budget, the general direction of the transfer is decided by Linsen, that is, who to buy and who to sell, Linsen has the final say. But in terms of the details, it is up to Livermore. To put it simply, Lin Sen only cares about the ideas, regardless of the operation.

As soon as this plan was proposed, Lin Sen knew that the other party had misunderstood his thoughts, and most of the Malaga side thought that the "transfer rights" that Lin Sen wanted was to be a Premier League manager-style manager, trying to take charge of everything in detail. But what Lin Sen wants is to turn the traditional Spanish model of the manager's often insignificant decision in transfer matters into a decision-making power.

Lin Sen's idea is very simple, since he wants him to be a chef, then what dishes he wants and what he doesn't want must be decided by himself. As for whether the process of buying and selling vegetables is done by himself, Lin Sen doesn't care. Aguilar's idea, or the deep meaning of Málaga's high-level move, Lin Sen does not want to delve into it, it is nothing more than kickbacks, commissions and other shady things, the football industry has a glorious side, and naturally there is a dark side, no matter how deep or shallow the water is, Malaga is afraid of Lin Sen mixing, but I don't know that Lin Sen himself is not willing to mix.

Therefore, Malaga's plan can actually be said to be in the hands of Lin Sen.

Who is willing to observe this player and that player all day long, and there are scouts who make transatlantic calls to themselves in the middle of the night, before coming here, Lin Sen, who is still alone, is even worried about whether he is going to be a trapeze artist for a summer once the transfer target is decided, and now it seems that someone has volunteered.

Of course, transfer rights are actually a very general concept, starting from the determination of goals, transfer negotiations between clubs, individual player contract negotiations are the focus, the decision is easy to say, but in fact, how to operate is the focus. Therefore, Lin Sen still needs to confirm with Aguilar on some real details.

Whether there are privileged players in the team is one of the main concerns of Lin Sen, because it is not only related to the team's rectification in the new season, but also related to the stability of the team's locker room. Lin Sen really doesn't like the role of a privileged player, or at the same time, no coach likes this role at all. Atletico have one of their privileged players, Sergio Aguero. On the issue of Aguero, not to mention the sale and renewal of such a big thing, the manager can't intervene at all, or even intervene, even the problem of playing, the club's senior management may have to intervene, if it is a privileged player who is easy to get along with or meets the tactical requirements, otherwise, what coach can stand it? Fortunately, Aguilar's answer to this was very crisp: no. This means that there are no non-sale items in Malaga. Come to think of it, the Málaga side has already made up its mind on this, otherwise Aguilar, who is just empowered, would not have answered so crisply.

In addition, Lin Sen also requires himself to have the right to know the progress and the right to bid in the transfer operation. For this point, Lin Sen's consideration is that other people don't have his memory, and he can't explain his goal to the other party, in order not to appear such as busy work for a long time, in the end only in exchange for a sentence collapse, Lin Sen can only use this way to ensure that his goal can be won smoothly. However, in this way, Aguilar seemed a little hesitant, and obviously, for Malaga, Linsen's request was suspected of surveillance.

This time, it was Livermore, who had always been quiet, who gave the answer, smiling and saying that it was perfectly fine.

Since the actual operator Livermore nodded, and Linson's request actually did not conflict with the club's original intention of only giving Linsen the right to decide, Aguilar quickly nodded.

The two most important issues are solved, and the rest is not an obstacle. Next, Lin Sen made some inquiries about the details of the transfer rights, and after Aguilar's answer made him feel feasible, he finally nodded and accepted the "tampering" of the transfer rights.

As for the negotiation of individual contracts, since Lin Sen has long been said that he is not demanding, the difference between the two parties is not big in terms of annual salary. Malaga originally provided a two-year contract with an annual salary of 200,000 after tax, and the bonus was based on the results of the team, which were relegation, midstream, European competition, Champions League qualification and league championship five grades, and the bonus doubled from 50,000 in turn, that is, if Lin Sen can really achieve the Haikou he boasted about in the previous meeting to lead Malaga into the European arena, then, he will get a bonus equal to his annual salary, as for the league championship, it is as high as 800,000, obviously, no one thinks that Lin Sen will do this, Even Lin Sen himself didn't have this idea. As for the only cup King's Cup, the prize money model is similar to that of the league, which is also doubled, and the reward for entering the top 16 is 20,000 yuan as the basis for increasing round by round, the only difference is that if you can enter the final, regardless of whether the team wins the championship or not, Lin Sen can get a bonus equal to his annual salary, that is, 200,000.

As for the annual salary and bonuses, Lin Sen has no opinion. Malaga is still kind, although Lin Sen said that he does not mind being demanding on the annual salary, but the annual salary given by Malaga, although it is not even a fraction of the giant coach, but at least compared with the same club, it is not too bad, and it can basically be the same as the salary that Lin Sen received in Atletico Madrid. Lin Sen's only idea is the length of the contract, and Lin Sen proposed to adopt the 1+1 model in the length of the contract, that is, sign a one-year contract, and if the two parties have no objection after one year, the contract will be automatically extended for one year.

Aguilar obviously didn't understand Linsen's idea, and compared to the length of the contract, Aguilar originally thought that Linsen would not be satisfied with a special clause in the contract: if the team is in the relegation zone after the halfway point or the team suffers five consecutive defeats, the club has the right to terminate the contract unconditionally.

But now, Linsen's objection is the length of the contract. Aguilar is only an adviser to the team, but for him, who has been in Malaga since the 80s of the last century, he knows much more about the pros and cons of the 1+1 contract than Linsen. 1+1, to put it bluntly, is a one-year contract, for the head coach's side, the advantage is that he has the right to choose to stay after one year. But everything is relative, and the same applies to clubs.

Therefore, what does Aguilar, who was originally inclined to be optimistic about the second-team coach Tapia, think, the 1+1 contract will do more harm than good to Linsen. However, for Lin Sen's request, he had no reason to refuse.

When the contract was confirmed, Aguilar realised that he could not sign it today. Because it was never a contract negotiation that could be completed in a day or two, Aguilar did not expect that it would take less than two hours to reach an agreement from start to finish. The formal signing of the contract requires the personal presence of Chairman Sans Jr.

After listening to Aguilar's explanation, Lin Sen expressed understanding. The official signing of the contract will be scheduled for tomorrow. Then, in theory, Lin Sen also enjoys his own personal vacation. Since the season has just ended, everyone is on vacation, the players are, and so are the coaches. This includes Tapia, who was originally one of the candidates for the head coach, he will become Linson's assistant coach in the new season, this appointment is decided by the club, Linsen does not object to this, he is alone, he really needs someone who is very familiar with the team to help him, Tapia is obviously the best candidate. As for meeting with the rest of the coaching staff, it is destined to be delayed.

However, after signing the contract, Linson will begin to prepare for the new season as the head coach of Malaga, and the first task is to make a plan for the transformation of the squad as much as possible, and the next thing is between him and Livermore.

Instead of going back to Madrid this time, Lin Sen stayed overnight in a hotel arranged by the Malaga Club, where he would stay temporarily until Lin Sen found his own accommodation, at the club's expense, of course. The next day, accompanied by Xiao Sans, the two sides formally signed the contract.

When the head coach first arrived, he usually met with the club's senior management first, and when Lin Sen took over Atletico Madrid, due to the special situation, it was not carried out, and this time Málaga is still very simple, there are not many main high-level members of the Malaga club, a bit of centralization, and the most important thing is naturally the chairman of Little Sanz. On top of that, Aguilar will be involved in most of the club's decision-making as a veteran, Livermore is a newcomer, and new manager Vicente Balkase is a more frequent face for Linson this season. In the case of Atletico Madrid, in addition to the chairman and general manager, there are also positions such as director of operations, director of football, etc., and some positions are even more than one person.

Balkase, who has been playing for Malaga for nearly ten years, has just retired this season, and he will assist Linsen in managing the dressing room in the new season.

As for Livermore, his attitude was still the same as at the beginning, neither humble nor arrogant, and after smiling and shaking hands with Lin Sen, he only said one word.

Happy to work with.
