Chapter 749 Big News is Brewing (I)

However, just as Xiangyang was interacting with cycling enthusiasts in full swing.

There is a group that is not happy.

That is, the fans.

As one of the first groups to have interactions with Xiang Yang on the Internet, they have always regarded him and Liu Qianqian as their own people.

They even went so far as to form a group and start a war with the fans of a certain star.

To express their strong support for the instigator of the "Stamford Bridge Kiss".

Now, after acquiring Liverpool, Xiangyang can be said to have given back to them.

So much so that many people would rather change their team and regard Liverpool under Xiang Yang as their home team in European football.

Chinese fans are so cute.

As long as they are given a little hope, even though their wallets are limited, their enthusiasm is like fire.

The result was good.

After announcing plans to sponsor the development of Chinese youth football and acquiring Liverpool, Xiangyang actually got together with someone else?

This is also thanks to the fact that they didn’t know that in order to express her support, Liu Qianqian was going to set up a youth hostel at the end of 318 to give back to the players who supported Xiangyang in outdoor sports.

Otherwise, these jealous people will really be upset.

But even so, they scolded Xiangyang Cycling as a "scumbag" under his Weibo post!
How can I hang out with bikers?

Xiangyang was also helpless about this.

Football is not like cycling.

It's not that easy.

Take the Polytechnic University as an example.

The sponsorship agreement has actually been signed with the cooperation of all parties.

But considering that the league has just ended, the players of the football team have returned to the classroom, and European football events are being held.

First of all, we can’t take the team members out for training.

Secondly, Xiangyang himself didn't want to delay the studies of these students.

Therefore, it would be more effective to postpone the press conference until the end of this semester's graduation exams and when the polytechnic university team is organized to go to Europe for training.

As for the rest, we will have to wait until spring.

And the football players who were previously noticed by scouts because of him.
“Is the gap really that big?”

When Edwards sent people to take time out to collect data with scouts from four other top teams and put it in front of Xiangyang, even though he didn't know much about basketball, he couldn't help but click his tongue.

Asian Games.

The Chinese Olympic team still lost.

Failure to advance to the finals undoubtedly disappointed the fans.

Especially since the opponent is a West Asian team.

However, it was this game that exposed the all-round shortcomings of China's National Olympic Team, which is mainly composed of young athletes.

What's the difference?

Needless to say, just in terms of running, domestic athletes are embarrassed in the report compiled by Edwards.

In modern football, the comprehensive abilities of athletes are often emphasized.

But running is the foundation.

Whether it is offensive advancement or defensive organization, even teams that emphasize traditional systems are paying more and more attention to this.

Because the sport of football itself is about space.

Running is about creating space.

Unless you can gather 11 players over 2 meters tall and keep the football from falling to the ground.

But why don’t people with such talent play basketball?
Therefore, in Edwards' report, a comprehensive score was given to the players who were previously judged to have potential by scouts from several other teams.

None of them meets Liverpool's passing standards for signings.

Even Zhang Linfan, who was favored by Chelsea, was not favored.

Not to mention the players on the offensive end such as Deng Zhuoyue, Zhang Xizhe, Huang Bowen, etc.

In the echelons of European clubs, there are many young players who have better talent, foundation, physical fitness and tactical qualities than them waiting to be discovered.

In Edwards' eyes, training them was a sheer waste of time.

But consider the benefits brought by marketing.

Edwards also gave his solution, which was to loan the Chinese players that Xiangyang hoped to introduce to a "satellite club" that had previously had good cooperation with Liverpool.

This not only solves the hot potato problem.

It can also improve the club's system.

This is what he should do as the sports director.

Written in his plan were the names of two clubs.

One is the Hungarian MTK Club (Budapest), and the other is the Belgian Genk Club.

Coincidentally, after taking over the position of sports director, Edwards prepared to conduct a systematic investigation of the two clubs.

Don't underestimate MTK and Genk.

Although they have not provided Liverpool with many outstanding players, they are well-known teams in their own league.

"Boss, there is another advantage to doing this. We don't have to get work permits for the players and incur more expenses."

Edwards added over the phone.

"Yes, indeed." Xiang Yang nodded and said, "Then send someone to contact the players. It would be best to go through Mr. Fan, as he has a certain influence on Chinese players."

"I will, Boss."

Xiangyang thought about it and was not sure whether Liverpool needed to have a satellite club in China.

However, considering the relationship between Fan Zhiyi and Coach Xu, he still said: "I personally suggest that you can also get in touch with Mr. Xu through him.

When it comes to transfer fees, don't push the price too low.

After all, the transfer fee of players is also a reflection of commercial value.”

How much is Zhang Linfan's transfer fee?
About 1200 million RMB.

If converted into British pounds, it would be in the millions.

Millions could have bought Ryan Lambert, the top scorer in English Football League One, two years ago.

It can be seen that Chinese players are actually not cheap.

The cost-effectiveness on the field is still extremely low. Because after buying him, he can't play at all, and it depends on how he can be trained in a slightly lower-level league.

And there is one thing Xiangyang can be sure of.

Even though Chelsea's scouts say they are optimistic about Zhang Linfan, the operations they will perform after buying him will most likely be similar to Edwards's, sending him to a satellite club to train for two years.

In fact, there are benefits to doing this.

First, it lowers the players' expectations, and secondly, it allows them to gradually become familiar with the environment of European football and have a transition.

After all, even well-known players may not be able to adapt to the Premier League, let alone
Two days later, Xiangyang was on his way to the airport.

"What? Let me go to Belgium?!" Zhang Linfan was stunned after hearing the news from Fan Zhiyi and his agent.

Didn’t we agree that it’s the Premier League?

How did it change into such a low-level league?

"Or MTK in Hungary. I have reached a consensus with Liverpool's sports director." Fan Zhiyi really put a lot of thought into this transfer.

Although he could not change the general direction, he still managed to obtain some preferential treatment for Zhang Linfan.

He is free to choose to go to either of these two teams and play for two years.

Of course, the club that acquired him was Liverpool. The contract was for five years with an annual salary of 10 euros.

Correspondingly, the weekly salary is less than 2000 euros.

This income level is only one-third of what he could earn by joining Guangzhou Evergrande.

But the good thing is that Liverpool will negotiate with the coaching staff of Genk or MTK to ensure his playing time.

Not much, but you can definitely experience the competitive pressure of European football firsthand.

After Zhang Linfan reacted, he looked at his agent with eyes as if he wanted to swallow him up.

This is just a trick on me!

If I hadn't listened to you and signed a contract with Evergrande directly, I would now have a contract with an annual salary of 300 million.

After all the twists and turns, this is it?
When faced with direct damage to interests, I am embarrassed to say that no one would feel comfortable with it.

After all, this is not 20 yuan.

But 200 million.

Zhang Linfan's agent also had a worried look on his face.

He didn't expect this would be the result.

Even if he seeks a transfer to Evergrande now, Zhang Linfan will not be able to get the 300 million promised by Evergrande because of the salary cap for next season.

Money is easy to talk about.

There are policies and measures to counter.

He asked someone and found out that Evergrande has two things that are most impressive.

One is debt.

Another thing is that there are many pre-sale properties.

They intend to give commercial housing to players to circumvent the impact of the salary cap on the club.

It’s just that he had stood up Evergrande before, and they haven’t contacted each other again yet, so it’s difficult for him to give Zhang Linfan accurate information.

"Xiao Zhang, I advise you to go out for a walk."

Fan Zhiyi advised earnestly:

"You have a strong body, you are still young, and you have good awareness. If you go to Europe and compete with them, you may earn less in the future than now.

I have inquired for you. Genk is a club that is basically composed of young players and can play in 1 to 2 rounds of European competitions every year."

"Coach Fan" Zhang Linfan looked at Old Fan hesitantly, thinking that that was 200 million.

I've been in the team for so many years, but I've never received 200 million.

It's gone when you say it's gone.
Go to Europe, especially leagues like Belgium and Hungary that no one in China pays attention to.

King Dong did propose a name for himself in Belgium, but what was the result?
Now there is almost no such person.

Almost the same conversation also took place in the chairman's office of the Beijing Guoan Club, not far from Xiangyang.

Zhang Xizhe's transfer is confirmed.

The transfer fee of 50 euros is obviously a loss for Beijing Guoan, which has trained him for several years.

However, like Xu Genbao's club, in this transfer, no one was overly demanding on the transfer fee for their own reasons.

However, the contract in front of Zhang Xizhe was far from Zhang Linfan's.

1000 Euros weekly salary.

The annual salary is only 5 euros, before tax.

As for the choice of a club to play for, it is even more demanding, and there is only one club like Genk that is famous for its youth training.

There is no guarantee of playing time yet.

The reason is simple. Genk's midfield is not short of players and there is no need to strengthen it.

Their hottest young player in the midfield right now is De Bruyne, who is only 19 years old and has just made his national team debut.

After Zhang Xizhe went there, it was even a question whether he could serve as a substitute.

"Xiao Zhang, please think about it carefully. No matter what decision you make, the club will support it." Gao Chao said to the young man with a smile on his face after discussing with his agent, and then looked at him cautiously.

He greeted the head office immediately.

stand by.

Let go.

Even though he felt sorry, he would definitely not stop it.

"I" Zhang Xizhe stuttered, Gao Chao waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Don't hesitate. Decide on your place and get used to the environment before the winter break. Whether you make it or not, this will always be your home."

"Okay, Manager Gao."

Zhang Xizhe nodded, he felt that he knew what to choose.

Although the annual salary is low, there is no guarantee of playing time.

But unlike Zhang Linfan, Gao Chao's guarantee meant that even if he didn't make a name for himself after two years abroad, he would still have a chance to play football when he returned home.

so.
Zhang Xizhe took a deep breath and asked:
"Manager Gao, when can I sign a contract with Liverpool?"
