The so-called renewal details are actually mainly in the annual salary and image rights, and other things have already been negotiated at the time of the first transfer.

Of course, the annual salary is the top priority, in competitive football is the youth meal, the income of the vast majority of players is still in the annual salary, the ability to manage their own money is a minority, and the ability to make money by fame advertising endorsements is also a minority, from another point of view, the annual salary is also a symbol of status, so when talking about the contract, the annual salary is the core content.

Chen Yu is now among the world's top stars, and the money he earns is enough to squander his life, for him, the annual salary is more of a symbol of identity and status, so not only to be satisfied, but also to compare with other people in world football, it can't be said that he wants the highest salary in the world, but he can't be lower than the star whose strength and reputation are not as good as his own.

At present, Chen Yu's annual salary is 6oo million pounds, which is the world's top annual salary, but there are many people whose annual salary is above Chen Yu, such as Ballack and Xiao Luo are above Chen Yu, and Chelsea captain Terry has become the world's first annual salary after the contract renewal, as high as 73o million pounds.

Now Chen Yu's goal is very simple, that is, to pass Terry and become the highest salary in the world, which is also in line with Chen Yu's status.

Although the World Footballer has not yet been selected, but Chen Yu, who holds a double championship and a double top scorer, has a great chance of winning the championship, and the world's first person naturally has to be treated as the first person, Chen Yu, who has not had too high requirements in terms of salary, also made it clear that he wants to get the highest salary this time, not necessarily how much higher, even if it is a dollar higher than Terry, after all, this is just a symbol of status and status.

Liverpool was not too surprised that Chen Yu asked for an annual salary higher than Terry's, when Terry announced that he would renew his contract with an annual salary of 730,000 pounds, Liverpool's owners Gillette and Hicks felt that Chen Yu might challenge Terry's annual salary, so they also discussed it in advance, according to Chen Yu's ability and achievements, they also basically agreed to give Chen Yu a salary similar to Terry's, but in terms of image rights and jersey sharing, Liverpool Club did not want to concede.

Fame to Chen Yu's level, the annual salary is only a part of the income, portrait rights and jersey sharing in their total income will basically be more than one-half, or even more than two-thirds, now Chen Yu's record is so good, the results are so outstanding, it is unlikely not to give the world's highest level of salary, but the reputation is given, Liverpool does not want to make more concessions in terms of actual benefits.

Gillette and Hicks can't compare with Abramovich in terms of wealth, the acquisition of Liverpool is based on loans, and now there is still a lot of debt pressure, they bought Liverpool as a bargaining chip to get more loans, so that Liverpool becomes an old hen that lays golden eggs for him, instead of investing in it like Abu, this attitude also determines that they will not make too many concessions on image rights and jersey sharing.

Chen Yu's original contract renewal requirements were not very high, an annual salary of seven or eight million pounds was enough for him to sign the contract, but there were too many clubs chasing Chen Yu during this time, whether it was to raise the price or really want to poach Chen Yu by money, the annual salary offered to Chen Yu was very terrifying, although it was not as exaggerated as the media said that 15 million euros, the annual salary of 12 million euros was offered by the club.

In this way, Chen Yu and Zhang Shubin's appetite has undoubtedly been raised, because the annual salary may affect the salary structure of the team, so Chen Yu and Zhang Shubin hope to get some additions in image rights and jersey sales.

Rick Barry and Zhang Shubin both have plans in their hearts, and they began to talk about the annual salary very smoothly, Zhang Shubin proposed to ask for 8 million pounds, which is 2oo pounds higher than Chen Yu's original contract, Rick Barry said that it was too high, because Gerrard's salary increase was only 6 million pounds, and Chen Yu took 7 million pounds is the best, Zhang Shubin of course disagreed, after a simple bargain between the two sides, the final annual salary was set at 75o pounds, and Chelsea captain Terry 200,000 euros, becoming the world's highest salary.

Although this is still a bit different from Zhang Shubin's annual salary of 8 million pounds, Chen Yu's goal is the highest annual salary in the world, as for the specific amount, Chen Yu doesn't care so much, 75o pounds is also very good, after 1ooo million euros, there is not much difference with Chen Yu's goal, how many hundreds of thousands of pounds are of course no longer necessary to contradict the club.

However, in terms of image rights and jersey sharing, Liverpool is not compromising at all.

Rick Barry said sincerely: "Zhang, don't talk about the portrait rights and jersey achievements, the club's original plan was to give Chen Yu a salary increase, and the jersey will be lowered, and it would be good if you didn't give it down. You can't get too far into it."

Zhang Shubin took the initiative, but he was not as embarrassed as when Chen Yu was injured, he sat on the sand leisurely, and said with a smile: "Barry, after the salary increase, and then divide the jersey and take it off, what is the difference between this and not rising, do you think I haven't studied mathematics?"

Rick Barry hurriedly said: "That's not what it means, it's not like that, the salary increase must be higher than the jersey share income."

Zhang Shubin said: "How much can it rise?" Barry, even if you don't inquire about Chelsea's offer to Chen Yu, you should read the newspapers and TV, Chen Yu must hang himself from the tree of Liverpool."

Rick Barry smiled bitterly: "No, no, Zhang, you can't compare Liverpool with Chelsea, no one can compare Chelsea with more money, according to what you said, the best players in the world should go to Chelsea, in fact, Kaka is still in Milan, Ronaldinho is still in Barcelona, Gerrard has been staying in Liverpool, at the level of Chen Yu, money is not the most important thing, besides, Liverpool's salary to Chen Yu is not much lower."

Zhang Shubin said: "Money is not the most important thing, but.[,!" It's money that's the foundation, and without that, there's no need to talk about anything else. Do you say, dear Barry, now Chelsea Real Madrid can give Chen Yu a lot more than Liverpool, and we are willing to sit here with Liverpool and talk, what do you say, dear Barry?"

Barry smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, Zhang, you and Chen are both emotional people, so I also want to ask you to consider the difficulties of the club, I still want to reiterate, Liverpool is not Chelsea, there is not such a strong capital, you want too much, it will make the club in trouble, the owner means that it is difficult to give you the same treatment as Chelsea now, once he eases up, he will give you a large salary increase."

Zhang Shubin laughed and said: "Is this said by Mr. Gillette or Mr. Hicks, I think it is Mr. Gillette, is he going to coax us as children?" Barry, do you know how old Chen Yu is now?"

Barry could only smile bitterly again, because he knew Chen Yu's age very well, 29 years old, such an age is already the end of his career in competitive football, and it is difficult to raise his salary and get a big contract.

Zhang Shubin said: "The reason why I can still sit here and negotiate with you is because at this age, Chen Yu hopes to be able to play in Liverpool until he retires, as long as the club gives a suitable salary and a long-term contract. After all, in this season in Liverpool, Chen Yu had a very comfortable life, so he didn't want to change places casually. But if the conditions offered by Liverpool are too bad, I think we will consider other teams as well."

Barry sighed: "Chen is a good man with affection and righteousness, but limited to Liverpool's funds, it is difficult for us to come up with too good conditions to renew Chen's contract, all we have is sincerity, I hope Chen can accept it."

Zhang Shubin said: "Sincerity is not what you say, it must be something we can feel, do you say yes, Barry, we don't feel Liverpool's sincerity now, we only feel Liverpool's coldness and harshness."

Barry said: "Is it sincere to fully accept your renewal conditions?" I think sincerity is all about doing your best, and right now, Liverpool have done their best."

Zhang Shubin said: "Are the conditions we offer high? 50% of the image rights, 30% of the jersey sales revenue, this is what Fiorentina can afford to Chen Yu, and Liverpool's strength will not be inferior to Fiorentina."

Barry pondered for a long time before he said with difficulty: "Zhang, to be honest, Liverpool's current financial situation is really not as good as Fiorentina, Gillette and Hicks have a big business and a lot of teams, but their debt situation is not optimistic, it is difficult for them to come up with much money to support the team, and many times they need to use the team's income to pay off the debt. I hope you understand."

Zhang Shubin shook his head slightly, and sighed: "The club's economic situation has deteriorated to such an extent, it's really unexpected, but this burden can't be borne by us, if the club's financial problems are too big, I would as well let Chen Yu transfer, it is estimated that it can be sold for more than 80 million now, and you can make about 5ooo million."

Barry was startled and said, "This? What words, Zhang, Chen Yu must not be put in the transfer market, now Chen Yu is Liverpool's top brand, it is the flag, sell him, the fans will not agree, Liverpool has been silent for so many years, and we also need more results to restore our status and fame in world football."

Zhang Shubin said with a smile: "I understand your plan now, I don't want to spend money, I want results, you are treating everyone else as fools, how much money has Chelsea spent, now it is only two league titles, Liverpool only spent money, and now it is a league championship and a Champions League champion. It's disappointing that the club is still slamming the door like this in such a situation."

Barry was a little embarrassed by what Zhang Shubin said, and he smiled bitterly: "Okay, Zhang, I'll go back and discuss it with Mr. Gillette and Mr. Hicks, but don't have too much hope, Liverpool is not Chelsea."

Zhang Shubin smiled slightly and said, "I can wait, I just hope you don't be too slow, if you delay for another month, I don't dare to guarantee what will happen later."

Faced with Zhang Shubin's threat, Barry was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I will do my best, rest assured, what happened last time will not be repeated."
