239 Sincerity, Dream Ideas
Perhaps a transfer transaction of 10 million euros is a very ordinary deal in the eyes of European giants. For example, Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Chelsea can easily take out 10 million euros. Their heavyweight transaction starts at 20 million, and it is pound!
So in the eyes of a wealthy club like Manchester United and Real Madrid, if you invest 10 million euros in a Qin Xiong and buy a player who may become Zidane in the future, this deal is very cost-effective. Even if it is not successful, from the global business influence of Manchester United and Real Madrid, especially the economic perspective of paying attention to and competing for the Asian market at the same time, buying Qin Xiong will never lose money!
This is also the reason why Manchester United club will let the CEO come to negotiate, and Real Madrid only buys superstars Florentino is willing to bid for Qin Xiong.↗,
But for Premier League giants Arsenal, who are burdened with debts in the new stadium, they rarely see transactions of more than 10 million pounds in recent years.
To put it bluntly, it means you have no money, and you must spend a small amount of money to do big things.
Like the main player Kroo Toure in the team, he spent only 150,000 pounds, full-back rookie Krish only spent 250,000 pounds, World Cup champion midfielder Silva, the transfer fee is no more than 5 million pounds
Even Qin Xiong and Freddy did not realize that the 10 million euro transfer fee Arsenal offered for Qin Xiong was a heavyweight transfer for Arsenal!
The attention is no less than that of other wealthy families spending 30 million euros or more.
Therefore, Arsenal attaches more importance to and is sincere than other clubs. The club’s vice chairman and head coach come to Amsterdam in person to interview Qin Xiong for a transfer!
They met at an upscale restaurant in Amsterdam.
Qin Xiong has already made the realization of considering going to the Bundesliga or Ligue 1 even if the talk is not done. This is his third time meeting Wenger. The first two times were in the first and second rounds of the Champions League.
During the dinner together, they did not talk about the transfer. Instead, they talked about Ajax's achievements last season and the fact that Arsenal won the championship with a fabulous unbeaten record in the Premier League.
When everyone was almost chatting, the dinner was over.
The waiter removed the dishes on the dining table, Qin Xiong took the napkin and wiped his mouth. He was still calm, and seemed to hate this kind of voluptuousness and slander. He did not want to waste time in the well-known high-profile talk.
What does Ajax win the championship make you contribute?
What is Arsenal's unbeaten record and how dazzling it is to win the championship.
That's all history.
He wants to look forward.
"Sir, forgive me for being honest and straightforward. To be honest, I've been tired of transfer negotiations in recent days because I can't get what I want, and at the same time I'm tired of endless beautiful but meaningless conversations.
I just want to know one thing. Arsenal wants me, where will he put me on the team? Will I play an important role in Arsenal in the new season? How do you plan to use me as the team coach?"
Wenger and Dane looked at each other, and the gentle professor smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk openly. First of all, I don't doubt your strength, nor do I doubt whether you can adapt to the football environment of the Premier League. In the key UEFA Champions League games, you played a key role in the match against Arsenal and Chelsea. I don't think it's necessary to check whether you can adapt to the Premier League. You have a certain ability to compete, a perfect overall view of the stadium organizer, and good skills. You will always pay attention to the existence of your teammates. This is what Arsenal needs!
I don't know if you understand Arsenal's existing lineup system.
We have midfielders like Vieira who have excellent organizational skills and strong defense in the midfield, and Borgkamp, who plays a series of offensive roles in the frontcourt.
It is precisely because of these two people that Arsenal's mid-range offense can perfectly cooperate with the wing offense, making our offense delicate and smooth, and playing pleasing football.
But now Arsenal is facing a serious problem. Borgkamp will be 35 years old next season. Although he still maintains a high competitive level, compared with him, his acceleration effect in the midfield and frontcourt is more outstanding. This should be understandable. Borgkamp's stop and passes are world-class, but he has lost the ability to break through long-distance dribbling. It is obvious to all that his age has caused his explosive power to decline.
I think you are very suitable for Arsenal's football philosophy. If you join Arsenal, it will improve our overall strength. I don't need you to stay on the bench for a year, two years or even longer. I need you to bring positive changes to Arsenal next season."
After Wen Mou's words, he took out a tactical book, which drew his ideal Arsenal main lineup next season.
Qin Xiong saw his name and appeared in the midfield.
He partnered with Vieira, with Borgkamp in front, Henry, Piret, and Loneberg.
Wenger turned a new page and drew a formation diagram again.
Qin Xiong is still in the formation.
But Borgkamp's name disappeared.
Vieira and Silva partnered with double midfielders, while Qin Xiong served as the front midfielder behind Henry.
Finally, Wenger concluded: "Come to Highbury and fight with players like Henry, Vieira, Campbell, and Borgkamp. You can succeed in Highbury and get more honors here. I firmly believe in this!"
Qin Xiong closed his eyes and imagined the scene after he joined Arsenal in his mind.
New teammates, obviously stronger teammates.
Henry, Vieira, Pire, Borgkamp, Lyonberg, Ashley Cole, Toure, Campbell, Lauren, Lehman, Silva
Fight with some veritable world-class superstars?
This is indeed a dreamy picture.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Wenger invited Qin Xiong to join Haibry with sincerity and plans.
Qin Xiong was also very interested in his plan.
Before parting, Qin Xiong stood up and shook hands with Wenger and Dane, telling each other: "I will seriously consider Arsenal's invitation."
Half of the transfer negotiations have been successful, and the remaining half is personal contract treatment.
I believe Arsenal will not disappoint Qin Xiong too much. After all, the transfer fee of 10 million euros has been paid. If the treatment given is too ridiculous, it would be contradictory.
The negotiations with Arsenal ended happily for the time being, and the next thing will be handed over to Freddy and Dane, and Qin Xiong returned to the hotel to wait for news.
Freddy and Dane's negotiations were not going well.
Although the contract treatment given by Arsenal has been greatly improved compared to Qin Xiong in Ajax, the basic salary is 20,000 euros.
But Freddy wanted to ask for a large contract for Qin Xiong with a weekly salary of at least 35,000 euros.
The two have a big difference.
During the tug-of-war negotiations that lasted for one and a half days, Freddy won a contract of 28,000 euros for Qin Xiong. Although Arsenal did not have to pay such a high weekly salary, he also made certain concessions.
It was originally proposed that four years of contract be turned into three years.
Freddy's idea is that since he was unwilling to give too high at the beginning, he would shorten the contract period and force Arsenal to raise Qin Xiong's salary in the next two years!
Dane believes that even if he renews his contract with Qin Xiong a year or two later, it is reasonable to give him a salary increase, provided that his development at Arsenal is as smooth as Wenger imagined. If it doesn't go well, it will be easier to end this failed transfer.
Compared with other giant clubs, Arsenal's transfer policy and club salary system control focus more on reducing risks, because they have actually made many failed signing investments in the past few years.
Fans are only talking about Wenger's ability to train young players, as if he has the magic of turning stones into gold. That's because people only see the players who have successfully trained are brilliant and dazzling.
And like Canu, Diavala, Mars, Walz, Veltod, Stepanov, Danielevihus, Edu, Jefferth, Wright, and Sigan, who came here at the same time or later, have they succeeded in Hebry?
This is the current situation in the world football world. No matter how famous the coach is, he will definitely have a series of players in the history of signings who were originally considered to be extremely talented but eventually become forgotten by the world.
