Restricted Superstar

After discussing with Pogba, Zhang Qi came to Manchester United headquarters again and told Manchester United manager David Gill about Pogba's signing conditions.

"What? Forty thousand pounds? Chapter, did I get it wrong?"

David Gill was very surprised. He could hardly believe that a kid who had only played a few games in the FA Cup would have such a high weekly salary. He thought it was the ghost of Pogba’s Chinese agent. In my impression, Chinese people are very greedy for money.

Zhang Qi said calmly: "Manager Jill, you heard me right. I think Paul is worthy of this weekly salary."

David Gill stared at Zhang Qi for two full seconds, and then said: "Zhang, Paul has only played a few FA Cup games for Manchester United as a substitute. He currently does not have the ability to play the main role in the Manchester United first team."

Zhang Qi said: "Yes, as the main player, Pogba has little experience, but I think Pogba can also make a contribution as a substitute. He will soon become an excellent star."

David Gil said: "Macheda, you know, he scored a lot of goals in the first team, but his first professional contract weekly salary is only 20,000 pounds, chapter, do you think Pogbaby is better than Maceda How many."

Zhang Qi said: "I think these are two completely different players. Pogba can become a Rooney star, while Macheda can only become a first-class striker."

David Gill said: "The potential is hard to say. No club will pay too much for the potential. It will only give him the opportunity to show his potential."

Zhang Qi was very strong when negotiating, "Maybe Manchester United is unwilling to pay more pounds for the potential, but it does not mean that other clubs will not."

Zhang Qi’s words already have a hint of threat, but this is normal, because Pogba has not signed a professional contract with Manchester United, that is to say, any team only needs to pay less than one million euros to get a Borg. Bar, it’s almost free, and if Manchester United and Pogba sign a professional contract, Manchester United will make a profit if it is played. Even if it can’t be played, there is a physical and technical midfielder like Pogba, let’s talk less. It is also worth ten to twenty million euros.

David Gill's face sank, "Zhang! What do you mean?"

As the ceo of a wealthy club, David Gill's angry look is still very powerful, but Zhang Qi doesn't care, and smiles lightly, saying: "It means literally."

David Gil said: "Chapter, you have to understand that Manchester United has no shortage of talented young people. Without Pogba, there will be other players. Talented players like Morrison and Macheda will not be like Pogba opened his mouth like a lion."

Zhang Qi is still smiling, "I don't think this is the lion's big opening, I think this is the correct understanding of the value of Pogba, just like my friend Xiaodong, his annual salary will not be the same as that of other players."

David Gill frowned and said, "Chapter, I can hardly tell Sir Alex Ferguson about your offer, and Sir Alex Ferguson would not agree to it. This will cause other youth team players to follow suit."

Zhang Qi said: "You can discuss with Sir Alex, maybe Sir Alex would agree."

David Gill said: "No, Sir Alex said, the players of the youth team signed their first professional contract with a maximum salary of 20,000 pounds a week."

Zhang Qi said: "Manager Jill, this is the first time we have talked about a contract. You can discuss with Sir Alex Ferguson and see what Sir Alex Ferguson has said. I will also talk to Paul. Paul loves Manchester United and hopes to make a difference in Manchester United. Achievement, I don’t know if he will make concessions on the weekly salary."

Speaking of Zhang Qi, this negotiation can only come to an end. Zhang Qi went back and told Pogba the results of the negotiations, and David Gill went to Ferguson to discuss countermeasures.

Pogba came to Gao Xiaodong's house to wait for Zhang Qi after Zhang Qi went to find David Gill. The first time Pogba talked about a professional contract, Pogba felt more nervous than everyone else.

Seeing Zhang Qi's return, Pogba saw that Zhang Qi's face was not happy, and his heart was cold, and asked: "Zhang, how are you talking about?"

Gao Xiaodong, Monkey, and Xiao Le also looked at Zhang Qi with expectation. This matter is also related to their interests, and everyone expects Zhang Qi to bring good news.

Zhang Qi shook his head and said: "The talk is not good. David Gil thinks Paul's weekly salary is too high..."

Before Zhang Qi finished speaking, Pogba interjected: "How much does Man Lenovo give?"

Zhang Qi said: "Twenty thousand pounds."

Pogba was very disappointed when he heard it, and said, "There are so few, really too few."

Zhang Qi smiled slightly and said: "Compared with Xiaodong, that must be too little, but when Manchester United Youth Training signs the first professional contract, this is the maximum salary."

The monkey smiled: "Manchester United has never been a local tycoon like Manchester City and Chelsea. With Xiaodong's performance, our weekly salary is 300,000 pounds for this contract renewal. Manchester United is not happy yet. No, it is still deadlocked."

300,000 pounds! Pogba's eyes are almost red. Gao Xiaodong is only three years older than him, and his annual salary is at least ten times his.

Pogba said: "I dare not compare with Brother Gao, but the weekly salary of 20,000 is too little, at least 30,000 or more."

Zhang Qi said: "It can be seen from the negotiation situation that Manchester United hopes to keep you, but this salary requirement is estimated to be difficult to pass."

Gao Xiaodong said: "The current financial situation of Manchester United is not good. It seems that my transfer fee is still paid by loan. But your weekly salary is really nothing. I think David Gill may consider the impact. If you open this Kouzi, when other youth academies enter the professional team in the future, the salary will not be good.

Zhang Qi said: "Yes, Manchester United should be considered from this perspective. Paul, if you want a high salary, you have to talk to Manchester United slowly. I will contact other clubs that want you to help raise the price. Anyway, you Now it’s a youth team contract. There is no transfer fee. Other clubs are estimated to be willing to pay a high salary. If you don’t want a high salary, we can exchange the high salary for playing time."

Gao Xiaodong nodded and said: "Paul, I think for young people, playing time is more important than salary. As long as you can play, just like me, are you still worried about not having a high salary?"

The monkey also said: "Xiaodong is right, Manchester United is more suitable for you now, Manchester United midfielder is not picking up, you are familiar with it here, and Xiaodong takes care of it. The probability of playing is greater.

Pogba scratched his head, hesitated again and again, and said, "Brother Gao, Mr. Zhang, then I will call my mother and grandma and ask their opinions."

Zhang Qi said: "Well, it's not a trivial matter. Please discuss it with your family."

"Okay." Pogba walked to the lawn outside the building and dialed his mother's phone, telling his mother the results of Zhang Qi's negotiation with David Gill and Zhang Qi's opinions.

Pogba’s mother was a decisive and capable woman, but she was a bit greedy for money. After listening to Pogba’s words, she discussed with her mother-in-law and told Pogba that her salary could be reduced to £35,000, but it would cost him. Guarantee Pogba will play 20 games a season. Regardless of the main force or the bench.

Pogba went back to the living room and told Zhang Qi his mother’s opinion. Zhang Qi heard that this condition might still be a bit high, but since the employer had this opinion, he could only talk to David Gill again. Let's talk about it if you don't agree.

However, Gao Xiaodong and Monkey felt that Pogba’s family was a bit greedy for money. Pogba was talented, but Pogba’s talent was not much better than Morrison, Maceda, and Gibson. They demanded such a high salary. It's a bit short-sighted, but it's only the initial stage of negotiation, so Gao Xiaodong and Monkey didn't say much.

In the evening, David Gill called Zhang Qi back, saying that Sir Ferguson was very angry and would never agree to give Pogba a weekly salary of 40,000 pounds. The first professional contract for Manchester United's young players can only be 20,000 yuan a week. More.

Zhang Qi also told David Gill about the results of Pogba’s discussions with his family. After David Gill told Ferguson, Ferguson directly called Zhang Qi’s cell phone and told Zhang Qi clearly that Manchester United would never give Bogba to Bogba. With such a weekly salary as Geba, playing time cannot be guaranteed for 20 games.
