211. Chapter 208 Lin, I’m going to Manchester United
Author: Bei Guoxia
After finishing the interview, Lin Kedi flew home directly.
After landing at Wudangshan Airport, Lin Kedi went home directly.
Essentially, Lin Kedi is an otaku.
Now that there was nothing going on, Lin Kedi was naturally too lazy to run outside.
But as soon as I got home, Ali's call came.
"Lin, a new offer is here! I wonder if those clubs have discussed it and come together!"
"Okay, let's meet tomorrow and talk about it."
"Okay, I'll fly to Chedu tonight. Can you find a place to meet tomorrow?"
"I'm the host, don't worry, I'll send you the location tomorrow."
——
The next day, Lin Kedi and Ali met in a private room of a private kitchen restaurant.
"Lin, it's a good place for you to find. There aren't many people there."
"Secret and quiet come first."
"Indeed -" Ali said as he took out a stack of information from his briefcase.
"These are the latest quotes. This time is completely different from before. Lin, you have to be mentally prepared. The annual salary quotes they gave this time are basically the maximum salary within their respective teams. This is different from before.
Completely different!”
"What teams are there?"
"Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain. A total of 11 teams have their quotes here."
"Just get rid of Bayern, Paris and Juventus. I really have no interest in Ligue 1, Bundesliga and Serie A."
"Okay, Bayern and Juventus basically have the lowest bids."
“How much is the price quoted in Paris?”
"Lin, do you want to go?"
"No, just out of curiosity."
"What they offer is the team's maximum salary, which is at the same level as Neymar, but they have a special clause that means your salary will increase year by year. The increase is the highest in the team. The final double team they gave is an annual salary of 30 million euros.
After tax and excluding bonus terms, the salary increases by 15% year by year.”
"Wow! Paris is really willing to give."
"Their only capital is money, but Lin, you made the right choice. Going to Ligue 1 means you chose to regress. After all, to be honest, Ligue 1 often can't even beat the Portuguese Super League. You are still young now.
I’ll have time to go there and make a lot of money in the future.”
Link nodded noncommittally.
"Then, let's talk about some practical topics. Let's introduce these companies in the Premier League and La Liga."
"The first is the three companies in La Liga. Atletico Madrid is willing to give an after-tax annual salary of 19 million euros, and there are also relevant bonus details——"
"Wait a minute, Atletico Madrid is willing to give you an annual salary of 19 million euros after tax? Really?"
"Lin, you don't think Atletico Madrid is a poor club, come on, their head coach Simeone is the highest-paid head coach in the world, higher than Guardiola! The Argentinian's annual salary is 25 million euros after tax!
Is that an exaggeration?"
"Wow, I really didn't know this."
"So, the annual salary they give you is not as high as their head coach."
"In other words, at Atletico Madrid, Simeone is the boss."
"Of course. So I don't recommend you to go to Atletico Madrid."
"Well, I didn't plan to go originally. Let's talk about Real Madrid and Barcelona."
"Barcelona is very special. The annual salary they give you is 23 million euros. The promise they can give is the only annual salary below Messi."
"hehe."
"Let me give you a reference. Messi's last contract extension was in 2017. It was his eighth contract extension at Barcelona. I have my channels. What I learned is that the total value of that contract is 555 million.
Euros, because 370 million were paid in taxes
Euros, so Messi received 180 million euros. After converting the years, Messi’s annual salary is 43 million euros. This does not include bonus clauses and the like. If all are counted, it may reach up to 70 million euros.
"
"Oh my god - Barcelona pass, next one!"
"I knew you wouldn't go to Barcelona. After all, you would be the second-in-command. Next is Real Madrid. Florentino is willing to give you the team's maximum salary and full image rights. You know it's Cristiano Ronaldo.
None of them have obtained full image rights.”
"The maximum salary in the team? Wait a minute - after Ronaldo leaves, Real Madrid's maximum salary in the team should be Bale, right?"
"Yes, according to the channels I know, Bell's salary is 22 million euros after tax. So the maximum salary standard for the team given by Real Madrid is 22 million euros. It is much higher than the previous one!"
Ali said several too many things in a row.
"Let's talk about the Premier League, Ali. I'm more interested in the Premier League."
"Where's Real Madrid? Where's the full image rights!"
It is obvious that Alli is more interested in Real Madrid.
"Real Madrid's offer is reserved, let's look at the Premier League's offer."
"The current maximum salary in the Premier League is De Bruyne's 16 million euros. There is indeed a gap compared to La Liga, but three of these five Premier League teams are willing to offer a salary higher than the current Premier League maximum salary.
salary."
"Let me guess which two? Liverpool and Arsenal?"
"bingo! You guessed it right. The annual salary quotations given by Arsenal and Liverpool are surprisingly consistent. I even thought they had discussed it! The annual salary they gave was 16 million euros after tax, and the weekly salary after tax
It’s 300,000 euros.”
"What about the other three?"
"The first is Chelsea. Their offer is an after-tax annual salary of 19 million euros. This is more than double their current maximum salary in the team. It is still quite exaggerated."
"But Chelsea didn't make it to the Champions League, so we don't think about it as the next one."
"That's right, Lin can't win the Champions League and then go to a team that doesn't have the Champions League."
"Then there is Manchester City, which ranked first in the league last season. Their offer was 20 million euros, and there was a clause, the highest salary clause in the team. If someone's salary exceeds yours in the future, your salary will automatically be 1 million euros higher than him.
.That’s the one clause. There is also a bonus clause.”
"You put Manchester United at the end and said -"
"Of course it's because the salary offered by Manchester United, which was third in the league last season, was indeed higher than that of several other teams. They gave an annual salary of 24 million euros after tax, which is equivalent to a weekly salary of 460,000 euros after tax, which is higher than that of several other teams.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are both high, and all I can say is, Lin, it looks like Manchester United is bound to win for you."
"Is it inevitable?"
"They even have an item in the offer sheet where you can be involved in managing the club's transfers."
"What do you mean? I don't quite understand, Ali." Lin Kedi looked confused.
"They are willing to give you the title of transfer director within the team! You can be deeply involved in Manchester United's future transfer work! And they also said that this is undertable and they will not announce it to the outside world."
After Lin Kedi heard this, he didn't know what to say.
Director? Me?
Just when Lin Kedi was silent, the phone rang suddenly.
Lin Kedi answered the phone.
Ali looked at Lin Kedi.
I saw a look of shock on Lin Kedi's face.
The other end of the phone obviously didn't talk for too long and hung up the phone after a few words.
Seeing Lin Kedi hang up the phone without saying anything, Ali asked: "Lin, who called you?"
"Ten Hahe."
"Ten Hag? What did he say when he called you?"
Chapter completed!
