Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 15 Formal Signing
With a brace from Shan Yongzhuo and an own goal, Kaffinburg pulled off a stunning away victory against Austria Vienna.

Shan Yongzhuo, who almost single-handedly defeated Vienna, once again became the darling of the media and fans after the match.

His outstanding performance, handsome appearance, and humble personality have earned him a great deal of goodwill from the media and fans.

Austrian mainstream media praised his performance, and he was considered a rising star in the Austrian Bundesliga.

Chinese media outlets got what they wanted, and although the process was a little different, the result was still good.

Shan Yongzhuo scored two goals and also forced an own goal.

Those were two goals, and Shan Yongzhuo has only played 4 games but has already scored 7 goals. Such a performance deserves all the praise.

Sina Sports is right!
Although Shan Yongzhuo is practically invisible on the field for long periods, every goal he scores generates news.

As a result, a series of effusive reports were sent back to China, drawing further attention to this talented player who was competing in the Austrian Bundesliga.

With 7 goals in 12 league matches, such a record would have been enough to put him at the top of the scoring charts in previous Austrian Bundesliga seasons.

This year is a bit special, though, as strikers have all had breakout performances. Marc Janko of Red Bull Salzburg has scored 15 goals, firmly holding the top spot, while Owen Hofer of Rapid Vienna has scored 10 goals, placing him in second place.

Shan Yongzhuo's seven goals put him in a tie for third place with Rapid Vienna's McHoff.

However, this performance is already quite good, considering that he is only an 18-year-old player who has just joined the professional league.

The comments made by Vienna coach Daxbach after the match have made the topic of Shan Yongzhuo even more popular.

"His performance was outstanding. He has clearly proven his ability. Any team would want such a talented young striker. If he can come to Vienna in the winter, I think he will improve even faster."

These words were quite blunt, and Kaffinburg fans were not happy about it.

We finally have a talented player, and you Vienna have already set your sights on him?

Kaffinburg FC was also afraid that Shan Yongzhuo would be poached by other big clubs. Pflug firmly stated that Shan Yongzhuo was the core of his tactics.

And Shan Yongzhuo secured his new contract very smoothly.

This made Shan Yongzhu quite happy. The contract he had signed before was practically a child labor contract, so being able to sign a professional contract now was certainly a good thing.

In fact, this is also why Shan Yongzhuo doesn't have an agent. If he did, he would have already taken the initiative to negotiate with the club.

In the club office, Shan Yongzhuo met with Kinnice and Pflug. Kinnice is now the club's general manager and wields great power.

“It’s nice to see you again, Dan.” Ginnie smiled and extended her right hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Fox."

Dan Yongzhu shook hands with Jinni Ke and tried to pull his hand back, but Jinni Ke tickled his palm, making Dan Yongzhu blush immediately.

"Don't be nervous, she's just after my looks..."

"Don't be nervous. Today I'm here on behalf of the club to sign you. I know you don't have an agent, so let's get started."

Shan Yongzhuo nodded.

“Your performance is excellent, so the club believes your current contract does not match your abilities, and therefore is willing to sign you a formal professional contract,” Jin Niko said to Shan Yongzhuo with a relaxed expression.

In fact, every time a team negotiates a contract or renews a player's contract, it's a mentally and physically exhausting process, mainly because most players' agents are practically vampires.

Kaffinburg is just a rural team, not a big, wealthy club. Although Kinnice had a good impression of Shan Yongzhuo, she had to be cautious.

However, after discovering the truth, Ginny felt a sense of relief.

Shan Yongzhuo doesn't have an agent, which makes things simple. Players are just players; negotiation isn't their forte. Besides, Shan Yongzhuo is just a humble 18-year-old, which puts Jin Ni Ke at ease.

Shan Yongzhuo was also very happy, as his salary was really pitiful. Although the salary in the Austrian league was not high, it was not low either. Star players in Austria earned quite a good income.

As they spoke, Jin Ni Ke took out a contract and handed it to Shan Yong Zhuo, saying, "You can take a look first, and I'll tell you the main points."

"First, the club will offer you a four-year contract, and your weekly wage will reach 8000 euros."

"Your Ballon d'Or will also increase to 2000 euros."

"Of course, the penalty for breach of contract will also increase, from 30 euros to 800 million euros."

Kinnice wasn't too bad off; for a young player who had just played a few good games and was playing in the Austrian league, this contract was quite generous.

Of course, on the other hand, Kafenberg is just a small club and cannot offer a big contract. In addition, since Shan Yongzhuo does not have an agent to negotiate, Kafenberg will not offer a big contract.

Shan Yongzhuo nodded calmly; he was already quite satisfied with the contract.

An annual salary of 40 euros is not low.

More importantly, he knew his own limitations; scoring goals relied entirely on skill, and aside from skill, his overall ability was simply insufficient.

For now, staying in Kaffinburg and leveling up is the best option.

"I agree." Shan Yongzhu quickly glanced through the information and confirmed that the club was indeed very sincere.

Kinnice was also very happy, as this was the first time she had signed contracts with players since becoming the team's general manager, and the process went very smoothly.

“I’m glad you’re willing to sign. I believe you’ll have a great time in Kaflenberg. However, I think I should still advise you that as a professional player, you should hire an agent to help you with off-field matters. This way, you can focus wholeheartedly on training and matches, which will be beneficial for you,” Kinnice earnestly advised.

Shan Yongzhuo understood that what Jinni Ke said made sense, but there was nothing he could do. He really didn't have any connections, and hiring an agent wasn't such a simple matter.

You don't want a bad agent, and you don't want a good agent.

This is rather awkward.

"Alright, congratulations Shan, you've truly become a professional player now. I think we should celebrate." Jinniko smiled, her big eyes sparkling, and said to Shan Yongzhuo, "How about we go out for dinner together? It's on me."

"..."

"No, ma'am, I need to go back to my workout."

Dan Yongzhuo made an excuse and left, completely ignoring Jinni Ke's resentful gaze.

He wasn't naive; he naturally knew what Ginny's purpose was.

Eat, drink some wine, and then it's only natural that something else might happen.

No.

I am a professional player, and I must be disciplined.

It must be said that Kinnice is indeed quite beautiful, possessing a more mature charm compared to Unia.

but……

"I'm not that kind of person!"
