Chapter 4: Signing for Chelsea!

Kenyon and his entourage came to visit Qiao Wanxian early in the morning, but they waited all day at the Hyde Hotel and were about to leave at night, so they finally waited for Qiao Wanxian's figure.

Kenyon sat on the couch and handed the contract in duplicate to Jovan, who was sitting on the side. Qiao Wanxian only glanced at it in a hurry, and saw that the contract indicated that Chelsea Club was willing to provide Qiao Wanxian with a one-year contract with a salary of 20,000 pounds a week!

The contract is seven or eight pages long, and most of them are descriptions of the manager's responsibilities and breaches. A club like Chelsea would never behave like a pit manager, so Qiao Wanxian didn't look carefully.

As long as Qiao Wanxian signs the contract, then the most absurd, mysterious and relaxed football signing in the history of football will be born without the birth of anyone who has ever been seen before!

Signing this is for sure, but when Qiao Wanxian picked up the pen, he found that his hands were shaking.

Qiao Wan sighed and said secretly: "No, I want to relax, I can't let this group of people underestimate me!" ”

Qiao Wanxian put the contract on the table, clenched his hands, and asked calmly: "Mr. Kenyon, every manager has his own players and coaching team that he admires, I wonder how much money the club is willing to provide to help me build a new team?" ”

Kenyon laughed: "You can rest assured that the boss has repeatedly promised to spend £200 million within two years to build Chelsea directly into a top Premier League team. In this way, this year's transfer budget is conservatively 100 million pounds! ”

Qiao Wanxian gasped, this richest man in Russia is domineering! He frowned, pointed to the number on the contract, and said lightly: "Mr. Kenyon, as the head coach of Chelsea Club, you only offer a weekly salary of 20,000 pounds, is it a little less?" ”

In fact, for Qiao Wanxian, a weekly salary of 20,000 yuan is already a lot, and when converted into an adult salary, it is more than one million pounds! This completely allowed him to change his lifestyle. His heart is actually ecstatic, but he just wants to show calmness.

Kenyon said apologetically, "Mr. Wan Xian, this is what Boss Abu meant. Not...... You know why, after all, you are too young to take charge of a top club like Chelsea......"

"Okay, I got it, I'm going to surprise you all!" Qiao Wan waved his hand, picked up the two contracts, and signed his name.

This is definitely the smoothest signing the Kenyon team has ever made, and without saying a word, this matter is done. Kenyon was very happy, stood up and shook Qiao Wanxian's hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wanxian, the club will hold a press conference to announce your arrival in three days, I hope you are ready." ”

Qiao Wan smiled and nodded, but there was some bitterness in his heart.

How will the whole Shijie football community react when they learn about the news?

Chelsea fans gathered in protest on the streets of London?

All kinds of bad things from childhood to adulthood will be dug up by the British media or shijie media like human flesh?

Is the Chinese media going to preach that this is the wise leadership of the Football Association? Is this the hope of Chinese football?

Thinking about the merciless cynicism of Arsene Wenger when he landed in Europe from Japan and was appointed as Arsenal manager, Qiao Wanxian felt that his bones were cold.

Of course, it wasn't all worry in Qiao Wanxian's heart. He has the secret weapon of No. 1, and he can at least complete a full year of his contract at Chelsea Football Club, right? At that time, even if Chelsea is unwilling to renew the contract, his giant resume will definitely become a hot manager on the European continent!

In this way, life is not worried!

On 11 June 2004, what is destined to go down in the history books of Chelsea Football Club, it was the first time he set foot at Stamford Bridge.

After touring the stadium, the staff went to the apartment that the club had rented for him.

This is a small building in the affluent area near Stamford Bridge, with red tiles and white walls, green grass and flowers, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, which is rare in the hustle and bustle of London.

With two living rooms, seven bedrooms, two garages and a swimming pool, the building is like a villa with all the amenities. Compared to where Qiao Wanxian used to live, this is simply paradise!

After a half-hour break, the staff finally brought Jovan to the Chelsea Football Club's board of directors.

This was Qiao Wanxian's first appearance in front of Chelsea's top management, and of course, it was confirmed that the middle-aged man that day was Abramovich!

Abu was talking, and the board members were sitting in a harmonious and quiet atmosphere.

Qiao Wan kept scanning back and forth at the English gentlemen present curiously, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Abu's ability was strong. Such an absurd and bizarre appointment was unanimously approved by the board of directors!

Chelsea Football Club is Abramovich's private property, and this is true!

"Gentlemen, let's welcome the club's new head coach, the young and promising Chinese Joe, Mr. Wan Xian!"

After Abu spoke a lot of words, he finally called out Qiao Wanxian in an enthusiastic voice, and took the lead in applauding, and then the whole conference room applauded......

After the board of directors, Abu met with Qiao Wanxian alone.

"Mr. Wan Xian, I saw your amazing coaching ability that day, I decided to take a risk, break the rules, and make you our Chelsea head coach, I hope you don't forget to be disappointed!" Abu was very easy-going, and his attitude was many times stronger than that day.

Qiao Wan touched his nose and said curtly: "Isn't it because of that gambling contract?" ”

"Haha......" Ah Brown said daxiao, and then Qiao Wanxian laughed heartily.

Abu tapped his fingers on the table and asked softly: "Mr. Wan Xian, there will be a press conference in the afternoon, if you have any requests, I will ask people to arrange them immediately." ”

Qiao Wanxian was still a little stunned by the reception, those British reporters were simply seeing the needles, and any loophole could make them infinitely magnified, what if they said the wrong thing and fired me directly?

Qiao Wanxian asked a little weakly: "If you don't open it, can't you?" ”

Ah Brownran smiled: "Lovely Wan Xian, are you kidding?" Our goal is to become the top wealthy family in Shijie, and we must maintain close friendships with friends in the news media. And it's a responsibility to all Chelsea fans to hold this press conference. ”

Qiao Wanxian looked at Abu's enthusiastic appearance, and muttered in his heart. Isn't that pushing me up the crater? Imagine the hideous and terrifying expressions that will appear when the media of various countries learn this shocking news, and he will feel a chill jump up from the soles of his feet and go straight to his head!

Qiao Wan sighed and nodded helplessly: "Okay!" ”

Abu nodded and said, "There is one more thing, I think Kenyon has already told you. As the new head coach of the club, I hope that you will improve your coaching staff as soon as possible, or rather...... Are you going to put the club in charge? ”

"Coaching team?"

Hearing this word, Qiao Wanxian's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of something.

yes, I don't have an assistant yet! What assistant coach, fitness coach, goalkeeper coach, tactical coach, jishu coach...... I don't know much about living in London, so it seems that I have to ask the club to arrange it for me.

When Qiao Wanxian just wanted to nod his head in agreement, he suddenly thought of a question. Assistant Coach, this is an absolutely important position! At my level of coaching, I need an absolutely strong assistant coach to assist him, otherwise it would have been a problem to be on the spot.

But who to choose as your assistant coach?

At this time, Qiao Wanxian's foresight played a crucial role.

He recalled carefully that at the beginning of the 21st century, there were three young and promising coaches: Mourinho, Pep Guardiola, and Boas!

Needless to say, Mourinho is known as a madman, and after leading Porto to win the Champions League this summer, he will definitely jump into the nest. And Pep Guardiola should still be a player at this time and has not retired, so this choice ...... Only Boas, known as the master of genius, is left!

Counting the time, he should still be Mourinho's assistant coach now, right? Dig him up to help him?

Qiao Wan squinted his eyes, hesitated for a long time, and finally popped out a few words between his teeth: "I want Boas!" ”

"Boas? Who is this person? Abu frowned and asked puzzled.

Qiao Wan said in a deep voice: "This person is very important to me, and I hope that the club will poach him at all costs." This is a rare asset for the club. ”

Abu smiled and said very generously: "Don't worry about this, you can tell who this person is, right?" Just leave it to Kenyon to deal with. ”

Qiao Wan said: "It is estimated that there will be many difficulties in digging this person, not only a termination fee, but also to convince his mentality." Because he's ...... now It's Mourinho's assistant coach! ”

"Huh?" Abu was stunned, and looked at Qiao Wanxian in shock, when did you know such a person?

But then Abu smiled, which is also funny, this summer he had planned to poach Mourinho as the club's manager, but it was an accident because a bet hired Mr. Wan Xian. But it was interesting to poach Mourinho and his assistant to come to Chelsea.

Abu's answer was very simple: "No problem, I will let Kenyon and the sports department take care of this for you." Remember, there is a press conference at 2 p.m., and we hope you will be on time. Have you been to the apartment? Are you still satisfied? ”

Qiao Wanxian smiled: "Satisfied, everything is fine!" ”
