Chapter 359: The sign of a conscientious merchant

After the game against Leeds United, Notts County Club held a small-scale party in the First Restaurant to celebrate the team's escape from the shadow of four consecutive defeats, victory over Leeds United, welcome the arrival of the New Year, and bid farewell to captain Xavier.

Longso.

I am afraid that only the stingy Zhao Tai could come up with such a brilliant idea. When others asked this question, Zhao Tai was able to act confident:

"I can't help it. I was forced to do it. Who made our club poor..."

The fans who attended the party were the lucky ones drawn by lottery during the half-time break. Not only did they receive gifts from the club, they also had the opportunity to take photos with Notts County players and coaches. Most importantly, some forum hosts

The coach can still be with club chairman Wei Xun and talk freely about the future of the club. Maybe he will be able to fulfill all the boasts he once boasted!

As a professional player, naturally he cannot eat and drink with an open appetite. There are also no rich Chinese delicacies. All the food arranged at the party is some healthy food. Except for beef, sheep, fish and chicken, all

These are relatively cheap fruits and vegetables, which invisibly saves a lot of money.

After all, it was the Chinese New Year, and Zhao Tai also made amends in another aspect. Everyone who participated in the party had red envelopes and gifts. If you were lucky, you could get even more generous prizes in the final interactive session.

Notts County has a large population, so instead of asking everyone to eat "healthy meals" with the players, it is better to open a separate table. At the party at the Notts County Second Restaurant, the food on the table was much more complete, combining Chinese and Western

, except for a few large dishes, all were placed on the middle row of tables in a buffet style.

Notts County staff and players' families ate sumptuous dishes, held fragrant Chinese liquor in their hands, and watched the interaction between players and fans in the first restaurant on the big screen, just like future generations watching a reality show.

Just as happy.

Wei Xun, Marotta and others are not professional players. Several management personnel who do not need to play football also ran to the second restaurant immediately after the party to eat and drink. It was said that they were eating and drinking.

It's not an exaggeration, I just ate some fruit, just as an appetizer.

…

That night, Wei Xun, Marotta, and Mendes were very drunk again. They woke up from their sleep very late the next day. Their heads were still a little heavy, they were feeling dizzy, and they even staggered when they walked.

Huang Yingying thoughtfully prepared sobering soup and brought it to Wei Xun. Wei Xun didn't even bother to drink it. The first thing he did when he woke up was to ask the office to send an official letter to Leeds United in the name of Notts County Club.

The paperwork asked for transfer offers for two players, James Milner and Aaron Lennon.

"It's great to get the jersey contract from Magpie Sports. You can easily get some money to support your family. You have to force me to drive an excavator to dig your corner. You will be happy..."

In fact, during yesterday's game, Wei Xun felt a little unhappy. Leeds United will soon be a second-tier league team, and the contract is still at the bottom of the Premier League. If the signing is successful, it will be a record high for the Magpie movement.

.

It's a pity that people are not as good as God, and it is almost impossible to uncover the pot, but they are still pretentious.

It is such a shame to be rejected by others in the box of your home stadium. Wei Xun is not a generous gentleman, so he must warn these Leeds United people no matter what.

Wei Xun imagined the expressions of the Leeds United management and the firefighting coach who had been promoted from the youth team when they saw this document. He couldn't help feeling secretly happy, and drank the hangover soup in one gulp:

"Ah... comfortable and refreshing!"

…

The transfer window is about to open, and there will be a wave of official announcements. However, Barcelona readily paid the liquidated damages at this time and tore up the transfer agreement regarding Riquelme that it had signed with Notts County.

The reason is simple. Although Riquelme cannot perfectly meet Rijkaard's expectations, there is really no better choice on the market.

Players and clubs at the beginning of the century were relatively willing to abide by the spirit of the contract. Even if Barcelona did not sell the player, they notified Notts County in advance and paid liquidated damages.

If you don't come, don't come. The team's reserves are enough for the time being. They have already added Yaya Toure, Rivaldo, and Edgar Davis. The Notts County midfielder is full of talents, let alone half a season.

Deco will return in the future, he is a world-class midfielder.

By then, Notts County's three offensive engines in the frontcourt will be playing in the entire Dream Team.

Over the past three years, there have been many young players in the Notts County Dawn Youth Training Camp who are 17 or 18 years old and cannot play in the first team at Notts County. With six months of contract expiration, Notts County

Izuku County clubs need to help these players find new clubs.

The age of sixteen is a watershed. Whether to choose to go professional or try a new life path is something that many young players and their parents need to consider. But at the age of seventeen or eight, some players still need to make a decision again:

Should he play the main role in a small team first, be a substitute in a big team, or give up football.

Sutton United, Northampton, and Maidenhead United are naturally the first choices for players recommended by Wei Xun, Marotta, and Mendes. These three English League One and League Two teams have a good relationship with Notts County.

He is also an old customer of the player business.

I can’t say that in English League One, but the Notts County brand is very popular in English League Two and the National League.

Rotherham very much recognized the brand of Notts County Youth Training. The official documents they sent brought a lot of excitement to the Notts County club management, and Wei Xun, the guy, was even a little excited:

"Big client!"

Yes, if you want three players from Notts County's youth training at one time, you can definitely be considered a big customer.

Rotherham hope to sign 17-year-old forward Alan Askam, 18-year-old Nigerian winger Giovanni and 18-year-old England full-back Edwards. However, since they do not have a complete scouting system, they need

These players will go to trial training first, and the trial training period will be one week.

"Gentlemen, this is a reasonable request, isn't it?"

Wei Xun thought this was nothing. Mendes and Marotta also nodded. Now is the time for Notts County Youth Training to open up the market. Wei Xun hopes to circulate the players produced by the Dawn Youth Training Camp to major leagues in the world.

dreamer.

For those newly opened stores, don’t they often engage in some preferential and promotional activities? Gifts, discounts, and chartered transportation are all common routines, and Notts County can learn from them appropriately.

Therefore, Marotta responded to Rotherham in the form of an official club document, agreeing that the three players should go to Rotherham for a trial, and Notts County would be responsible for the round-trip transportation and all expenses during the players' trial.

The reputation of a conscientious businessman and the image of the club spread throughout the English football community.

In some other clubs, young players with half a year left on their contracts have been left to fend for themselves in the past. If they were really talented, they would have been moved to the first team or the reserve team long ago.

Once the contract renewal is completed, it is impossible to let him go for free.
