"Lister, when this contract comes out, Coach Benitez becomes the highest-paid coach in European football."

Arneson and Rist negotiate in Milan. Although the two people are very familiar with each other, the two sides represent their respective interests when negotiating, so they can easily finish the negotiation without saying anything.

But when it came time to negotiate, Rist's request was simple. What is the attraction of Paris Saint-Germain to bring in Benitez, saying that there is only one in a thousand ways and ten thousand, and that is money. Therefore, Paris Saint-Germain must pay high wages. Without high salaries, who goes to Paris Saint-Germain. As a result, Rist and Arneson eventually reached an agreement on an annual salary of 14.6 million euros.

Of course, this is the salary before taxes. Because France has to pay 45 percent of the tax, Benitez has 8 million euros after tax. This is the first in European football, and in second place is Real Madrid's Jose Mourinho, whose annual salary after tax is 7.3 million euros. In fact, Mourinho's salary before tax is more than 15 million euros, but unfortunately Spain collects 52% tax. In any case, Benitez is the first coach in the history of European football to earn more than eight million euros after tax.

In addition to a fixed salary, Paris Saint-Germain, which has not won the championship for many years, is also very generous in bonuses. Domestic titles include Ligue 1 and French Cups, as well as the UEFA Cup, Super Cup, etc., each of which carries a prize of €2 million. The Champions League prize money is a surprise.

In this contract, once Benitez wins the Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain is willing to give Benitez 8 million euros. It can be said that this contract is a very amazing contract.

"Frank, a good coach should have a good salary. Benitez's results are eligible for this salary. ”

"As far as you can speak."

Arneson chuckled. Although the salary is somewhat high, Arneson is very satisfied with this cooperation. Because who can bring a coach of Benitez's level to PSG. It's not that easy. This time Arneson has enough face in front of the PSG boss.

"That's right, Lister. Heard that the World Footballer of the Year is confirmed? ”

"Yes."

This year marks the first year after the merger of the World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or, which has been renamed the FIFA Ballon d'Or. But people are used to being called World Footballer of the Year, which is why Arneson asks.

"Messi?"

"Yes."

Rist shrugged. Although Messi won the FIFA Golden Ball Award in history, after being truly immersed, Rist was very dissatisfied.

Because this incident has become a stain on Messi. If it weren't for the merger of the World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or. Then even if Messi misses the European Golden Ball Award, the world footballer of the year can't run out of the palm of his hand. Then there will be no need to be so entangled.

The merger of these two awards is definitely a big step backwards. The Ballon d'Or has always been a symbol of performance, and the world footballer of the year has been famous. If you want to see the best player of the year, look at the Ballon d'Or winners. If you want to see the most famous players of that time, you can look up the winner of the World Footballer of the Year.

In terms of Messi's fame in recent years, the World Footballer of the Year is tailor-made for him at all. But after the merger, Messi relied on his fame to bring the first FIFA Golden Ball Award into the palm of his hand. But it will cause a lot of controversy.

From the club's point of view, the best performers are Sneijder and Robben. And the two of them are also doing very well in the national team. As for the national team, Xavi, Iniesta, Villa, and Casillas, who won the World Cup, have all performed very well. The Golden Globes can be chosen from among them. But Messi used his fame in recent years to win the FIFA Golden Ball Award.

"He's a back-to-back Ballon d'Or."

"It's a little lacking in confidence. Leo himself was surprised to hear what I had relayed. Leo himself didn't expect that he would be able to win this award. ”

"Aren't you guys cheap?"

Rist waved his hand and said gloomily, "Take advantage? To take advantage is to suffer. Leo's current achievements are in terms of what he is doing. Is it really coveting such an unconvincing trophy? Looking at Leo's performance this season, the half season has not yet ended, he has scored 30 goals and 13 assists. Will there be suspense at next year's Golden Globes? Do you think we're rare this Golden Globe? The votes of the coaches and captains of the national teams are completely indifferent. ”

The authority of the World Footballer of the Year is questioned because the votes of these national team managers and captains do not have any authority. Although these people are all insiders, they are usually busy with their own affairs. Where is there time to care about the performance of other players. In so many countries around the world, there are some where the manager and captain don't even have a Europa League signal, and how do they know who the best players are this year.

As a result, many of their votes are based on fame. How can such a vote result reflect the best performer of the year, but on the contrary, it is generally the player who performed well last year.

"Forget it. No matter how you put it, it's a Golden Globe Award. ”

"Yes."

Reesette nodded. Although there will be a lot of controversy at this year's Ballon d'Or, as long as Messi continues his strong performance in the next few years, many people will slowly forget about this year's Ballon d'Or.

…………

"Sorry, it's her job."

Casillas faces Cristiano. Ronaldo replied nonchalantly. After a change of clothes. He locked his closet and said, "He's a sports journalist and has the right to express his opinions." I have no right, and no one has the right to interfere with her work. ”

"Bang-"

Cristiano. Ronaldo kicked hard at the door of the dressing room. Cristiano. Ronaldo was furious. This year's Golden Globe Awards selection was chaotic.

Because the World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or merged, no one dares to say who will be elected. It would have been Spain and the Netherlands that had been the best performers this season. Among them are Spain's Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Villa and Casillas, as well as the Netherlands' Sneijder and Robben. A few of them were the best.

Unfortunately, none of them have an absolute advantage. First of all, Sneijder and Arjen Robben are club teammates and national team teammates, they are very good players at club and national team, and no one is better than the other. Hence the praise to Inter and the Netherlands. The votes received by the two of them will be divided. The same is true for Spain, where there is no obvious core player, a player who decides the game.

They all did well, but none of them had an absolute advantage. On the contrary, Messi and Cristiano, who have performed well in European football in recent years. Ronald has been doing well on many occasions.

Cristiano. Ronaldo is no worse than Messi, he scored 47 goals in La Liga last season, plus 64 goals in the Champions League, Copa del Rey and national team, which is definitely an astonishing number of goals. Cristiano. Ronaldo's individual performance was absolutely very good, so taking advantage of the chaos, Cristiano. Ronaldo is hoping for a Ballon d'Or.

But not long ago, in the news that broke the news in the media, the first person Casillas chose turned out to be Ramos, not Cristiano. Ronaldo. For this Cristiano. Ronaldo was furious. But he didn't have any conflict with Casillas.

But the media kept talking about it. But just when the media kept saying that Casillas did not choose Cristiano. At the time of Ronaldo, Casillas's girlfriend came out.

Sara. Caponero, a famous Spanish sports journalist. He criticized Cristiano when he was interviewed by Spanish TV Channel 5. Ronaldo: "He's always been like that, on the pitch he's an individualist, very selfish. He only thinks about scoring goals for himself and never thinks about the team. He only cares about himself being in the limelight. ”

This makes the already relationship with Cristiano somewhat delicate. The relationship between Ronaldo and Casillas is already close to breaking down. Although last year's turmoil subsided, the two sides left a knot that had not been resolved. I didn't expect such a thing to come out again this time.

Cristiano. Ronaldo was in the dressing room today and asked Casillas to be able to restrain his girlfriend. Unexpectedly, Casillas directly pushed back. This makes Cristiano. Ronaldo was rather furious.

"Harvey, I've changed it."

The two bigwigs in the Real Madrid dressing room fell out, which made the Real Madrid players start to be a little surprised. But soon everyone is what to do, a group of people with good relationships.

Alonso and Arbeloa have never been involved in such things, they only follow Mourinho's tactics. In the dressing room, they belong to the faction that supports the manager, but as a native Spanish player, they are not Cristiano. Ronaldo was in the gang, so he quickly finished changing his clothes and left here. The two bigwigs are at war, and Real Madrid still has a lot of their horses. Maybe they'll go to war too.

"Cut, what captain. I don't know how to defend Real Madrid. ”

"What did you say!"

Hearing Pepe's muttering, Ramos immediately reprimanded. However, Pepe didn't take Ramos seriously, and the current Real Madrid is Mendes, Mourinho, Cristiano. The Portuguese gang led by Ronaldo, Carvalho, and Pepe is strong, and there are allies such as Essien and Di Maria, Pepe is not afraid of Ramos at all. And Pepe looks down on Ramos, and his salary as the vice-captain of Real Madrid is pitiful. At first glance, it is clear that the Real Madrid hierarchy does not care much about Ramos.

"Am I wrong? The captain should not be defending the interests of Real Madrid and letting him take care of his own woman, what's wrong. Isn't he the captain of Real Madrid, the captain of Barcelona? ”

After a disdainful response, leaving Ramos angry, Pepe followed Carvalho out of the dressing room. A small thing even affected the atmosphere of the entire Real Madrid dressing room.
