Chapter 101 Sky-high signing fee

Werder Bremen's style of play has always been tough, and the courage to take cards is their team's characteristic.

In a previous match against Schalke 04, after the opposing midfielder Neustadt committed a flagrant foul on De Bruyne, Werder Bremen's players took turns to hit him hard and kicked him off the field.

In this game, Olic became the villain again, trying to hurt the only core of his team.

How can I bear this?

I can't bear it!

So, before Olic could make another move, Werder Bremen's counterattack came.

In the 33rd minute, Schmitz took the lead and kicked Olic to the ground with a vicious tackle.

The latter let out an exaggerated howl and rolled on the ground three and a half times holding his legs, looking like he was about to die.

Seeing how miserable he was, the referee showed Schmitz a yellow card.

Schmitz didn't protest. When he passed by Olic, he gave him a sharp look.

This foul made Olic calm down for a while. After all, he was scared to death.

People don't care about fouls and cards, they just want to kick you, but you still dare to commit crimes against the wind, don't you want your legs?

Winning or losing is the team's business, but your legs are your own...

Without Olic's flagrant foul, Lin Quan became difficult to restrict on the court again.

In the 35th minute of the game, he once again performed the 45-degree arc pass he had made in the game against Schalke 04.

The ball flew past the Wolfsburg players in an extremely unscientific trajectory, grazing the lawn and accurately finding Werder Bremen center Anautovic.

The latter was also very surprised that the ball could find him so accurately, but the quality of the pass was extremely high. After the ball came to him, the speed had slowed down.

Arnautovic didn't need to stop the ball at all and could just hit the goal.

He did not waste his teammate's wonderful pass, and directly swung his leg and volleyed the ball. The ball passed through the fingers of Wolfsburg goalkeeper Bellario and flew into the net.

After scoring the goal, Arnautovic ran straight to Lin Quan, squatted down in front of him, motioned for him to ride on him, and then led him to the sidelines to celebrate.

More than half of the credit for this goal goes to Lin Quan!

If he hadn't passed the ball so accurately, Anautovic wouldn't have had such a comfortable chance to hit the goal.

"Lin, how did you get that pass just now?"

"Could it be that you were blind?"

The teammates also ran over. After celebrating, they were all very curious. They wanted to know how Lin Quan's incredible pass came out.

Can I learn this by myself?

If they can learn it, they all want to learn it!

The biggest fear when passing a through ball during an offense is that there are defensive players on the passing line. As long as the opponent stretches out his foot to block the ball, the ball will not be able to pass.

But Lin Quan's pass just now solved this problem perfectly. His pass would turn, and the exaggerated arc made the defensive players watch the football fly away in front of them, but they were unable to intercept it. .

If they can all learn this trick, then everyone in Werder Bremen will be a master of curveballs.

Let alone the players on the field who want to learn from it, De Bruyne is sitting at home watching the live broadcast of the game on the TV.

After seeing Lin Quan perform incredible passes again, his eyes widened and he wanted to rush to the field immediately and learn from his master on the spot.

"how did you do that?"

“How could such an imaginative pass be made?”

De Bruyne held his head, wishing to replay the scene where Lin Quan passed the ball just now ten or a hundred times...

…

The game restarted, and after falling behind, Wolfsburg became more determined to launch an attack with heavy troops.

They cannot afford to lose, as losing will cause them to fall completely into the relegation zone.

Even if we can't win this game, it's good to keep a tie and get a point. The only thing we can't accept is losing at home.

"Run and run, cheer me up!"

Their coach Felix Magath is a well-known training fiend in the Bundesliga.

He has a very tight grasp on the team's training, especially physical training. The most famous thing is that he asked the players to hold a very large medicine ball and perform strength training on various muscles.

In addition, he also likes to let players climb mountains and go for long-distance running in the forest...

Under such high-intensity training, the team coached by Magath is much stronger than other teams in terms of physical reserves.

Therefore, his tactics require players to run actively and fight fiercely, trying to use this highly aggressive tactic to defeat their opponents.

This trick may have some effect at first, but it has been used so much in the Bundesliga that everyone knows how to beat them.

Just like this game with Werder Bremen, don't you like running?

Then I will use passing and controlling tactics to increase the number of passes and let you run as long as you can.

There is Lin Quan in the midfield, and Fritz and Yunuzovic are in the midfield to intercept and sweep.

Although Werder Bremen's passing and control play is different from Barcelona's, it is still no problem against relegation teams like Wolfsburg.

Wolfsburg's players were helpless. They didn't want to run because they couldn't grab the ball and would be played by the opponent.

But the coach kept yelling at them from the sidelines to run.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and run away.

As a result, they ran for dozens of minutes in vain, but didn't even catch a ball.

Instead, Werder Bremen scored another goal in the 64th minute of the second half to seal the victory.

At the end of the game, fans at the Volkswagen Stadium began to leave early.

This game is too ugly to watch. Our players are being walked by their opponents. If we watch it for a second longer, we are afraid that our lungs will explode.

Magath sat on the coach's bench with an ugly face. After losing consecutively, he could smell the danger.

The club has been in contact with Schuster recently and seems to be interested in hiring him to take over his position.

Wolfsburg not only has a poor record this season, but the atmosphere in the locker room is also very bad.

Many players in the team have conflicts with Magath and are very dissatisfied with his devilish training.

If his devilish training can lead to better results, then the players may be able to tolerate him.

But his devilish training achieved nothing and only made the players feel tortured.

In this case, the players are naturally unwilling to support him.

They hope to change the coach and change the style of play.

Wolfsburg's troubles have nothing to do with Werder Bremen. After winning the away game, their league points reached 30 points, one point ahead of Bayern Munich, who had one game less, and temporarily topped the Bundesliga. The league standings became the new top spot.

Although Werder Bremen did not stay at the top of the list for too long, three hours later, Bayern Munich massacred Hannover 96 at home with a score of 5:0 and regained the top spot.

But after all, this is the first time that the top spot has changed since the start of the Bundesliga this season.

As a result, major media in Germany reported on this incident.

The media praised Werder Bremen's outstanding performance this season, believing that with six consecutive victories, they have every chance to overthrow Bayern Munich and take away the league championship from the opponent.

The media also expressed their disbelief that Lin Quan's single-core team could achieve such good results when De Bruyne was absent due to injury.

"The selection of the Bundesliga's Best Newcomer this season has ended before it even begins. I don't think anyone can take this award away from Lin Quan!"

A football star wrote in Bild:

"With De Bruyne absent due to injury, Lin Quan appeared in the midfield position. The outside world may not be optimistic about his performance in the midfield at first.

But in these two games, Lin Quan answered people's questions with 4 wonderful assists: in the midfield position, he is still the top player!

Considering that he plays the position of a free agent in the frontcourt in the Spanish national team, we have reason to believe that he may be capable of playing any position in the midfield.

It’s hard to imagine that he is less than 17 years old!

To be honest, even though I have watched football for many years, in my mind, there has never been a player like this before.

This means that we are probably witnessing the birth of a legend. "

Although the German media has praised Lin Quan countless times before, this report still aroused widespread discussion.

The reason is simple, the winter break is coming!

The arrival of the winter break means that the winter transfer window is about to open.

And this, for many wealthy families who are interested in buying Lin Quan, must be an opportunity that they will not miss.

…

As Lin Quan's agent, Perret has been very busy during this time.

His phone call is almost always on 24 hours a day. There are too many teams that want to take Lin Quan away this winter.

Not only those well-known wealthy clubs, but also some small and medium-sized clubs called him with the mentality of giving it a try.

Anyway, Barcelona’s liquidated damages are not expensive, only five million euros!

No matter whether it can be done or not, it is still right to give it a try, and it costs nothing anyway.

If the other party takes a fancy to their team, they will make a lot of money.

Perret's energy in the brokerage industry is not big enough, and there is a big gap between him and the top brokers.

Therefore, when faced with inquiries from major wealthy clubs and a large group of small and medium-sized teams, he did not become impatient. Instead, he patiently explained and communicated on every call.

This made him familiar with these clubs. Regardless of whether the transfer was successful or not, with this opportunity, he finally established contact with these clubs.

When we deal with the transfer of other players in the future, we won't be able to find connections.

For this reason, Perret is very happy that Lin Quanneng signed a contract with him.

Without Lin Quan, he would not have had the opportunity to be exposed to so many clubs.

So, after he finished what he was doing, he made a special trip to Germany and went to Bremen to report to Lin Quan on the progress of his work during this period.

"The current situation is like this. A total of 9 wealthy clubs have sent you invitations, hoping to take you away during the winter break. The others are all small and medium-sized clubs. I don't think you will be interested, so I will take you with them during the winter break." You declined."

Lin Quan nodded, picked up the list and took a look.

At the top of the list among the giants is La Liga's Real Madrid, which has promised Lin Quan a starting position and is willing to offer Lin Quan an annual salary of 7 million euros. .

This annual salary is not too high among top players, but for young players Lin Quan's age, this is already the maximum salary.

Lin Quan glanced at the remaining clubs and saw the names of AC Milan, Inter Milan, Old Lady, Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Bayern and other teams.

Among these teams, Bayern makes him somewhat concerned:

"What are the conditions offered by Bayern?"

Lin Quan has no interest in other teams for the time being. After it is confirmed that Guardiola is going to Bayern, there is a high probability that his next stop will be Bayern.

The Bundesliga is suitable for young players to improve. He has played here for half a year and has adapted to the rhythm of the game here.

He doesn't plan to risk playing in other leagues until he reaches adulthood and his physical development is complete.

First of all, different leagues have different styles. Suddenly changing the style of a league will cause adaptation problems, which is not conducive to him quickly earning system points.

Secondly, Guardiola is good at training and using young players, and he can learn a lot under him.

Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga is so strong, and Bayern's lineup has been at its peak in recent years.

Go and play for Bayern to earn points, win honors, and grow by the way.

These are crucial for Lin Quan of this age group.

He had communicated this with Pere before, and the other party also knew this.

So after hearing Lin Quan's question, Perret immediately found the intended contract offered by Bayern:

"They hope to sign with you for five years. The annual salary of the contract is 6 million euros, and there is also a signing fee of 5 million euros."

Hearing this, Lin Quan frowned.

"What are the wage levels like at Bayern?"

"There are five people in the Bayern team whose wages are higher than yours. The highest is Ribery with 8 million euros, followed by Bastian Schweinsteiger with 7.7 million euros, Robben, Gomez, and Lahm all with 6.5 million euros. EUR."

"Your national teammate Javi Martinez's salary is 4.5 million."

Lin Quan nodded. Looking at it this way, Bayern's offer was not too low.

Their salary expenses are definitely not comparable to Real Madrid. After all, Real Madrid is the most successful club in the world, and commercial development is not comparable to Bayern.

Real Madrid spent about 45 million euros more on wages than Bayern last season, a full quarter more.

When the number of players on the team is about the same, it is normal for Real Madrid players to get more.

These annual salaries are after-tax annual salary. Calculated based on pre-tax annual salary, Lin Quan's annual salary has exceeded 10 million euros, which can be regarded as a millionaire.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for Bayern's salary to increase. If it is higher, it will affect the stability of their team's salary system. However, I can help you fight for the signing fee. After your contract with Barcelona ends, if you join Bayern as a free agent If so, it can help them save a lot of transfer fees.

This transfer fee can be paid to you in the form of a signing fee, which is regarded as additional compensation for you. "

Pere's words made Lin Quan instantly interested. He had seen some corresponding reports before.

The outside world estimates that his transfer fee is at least 40 million euros. If all the money is transferred to his account in the form of signing fees, wouldn't he become rich?

When I think about Guardiola working so hard for so many years, in the end he couldn't even get 20 million euros in his hands.

And as soon as he signed the contract, he would receive 40 million euros immediately, and Lin Quan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Ahem, Bayern probably won't give that much. I guess they have 20 million. If it's more, they will most likely not be willing to pay."

Lin Quan was stunned for a moment by Pere's words, and immediately asked:

"Why? Does Bayern think I'm not worth the price?"

"No, they don't see your value, but they may think that after signing a contract with Pep, it will be easy to get your contract. In this case, their psychological price will not be too high. , the signing fee of 40 million may be difficult to achieve.”

Lin Quan was a little dissatisfied. It wasn't that he was greedy for money or anything, it was just that the other party's behavior seemed a little disrespectful to him.

"Then if I join Real Madrid for free, how much signing fee will Mr. Florentino give me?"

"Fifty million euros!"

Perret answered directly without thinking.

Lin Quan glanced at the other party in surprise. It seemed that the other party had already had contact with Florentino in private.

No wonder he put Real Madrid's name at the front, but he didn't know how much benefit Florentino had given him in private.

"Ahem, he promised me that if he could facilitate this transfer, he would give me an additional 5 million euros in commission."

The commission for professional player agents is generally 10%, while the commission for Pere and Lin Quan's contracts is only 5%.

Even so, if Lin Quan signs with Real Madrid, he will still receive 2.5 million euros out of the 50 million signing fee.

In this case, the 5 million euro commission offered by Florentillo will naturally be very attractive to him.

No wonder he puts Real Madrid first. From the perspective of his personal interests, promoting the transfer between Lin Quan and Real Madrid is the most profitable for him.

Lin Quan stared at Pere for a few seconds, sighing that the power of money was so powerful that his uncle was almost tempted.

"If you don't want to go to Real Madrid, I can call President Florentillo immediately and refuse his invitation."

Perret was a little embarrassed to be seen by Lin Quan. Although he wanted to make this money, if Lin Quan himself was not interested in Real Madrid, he would not go against Lin Quan's will.

"No, just don't answer them now. I don't plan to transfer during this winter break, so I refuse all invitations from other teams. I will wait until the end of the season and my contract with Barcelona expires.

As for the invitations from Real Madrid and Bayern, you can continue to talk to them.

It doesn’t take much effort to go to Real Madrid, and I most likely won’t go.

Mainly for Bayern, you have to find a way to negotiate the signing fee. My bottom line is 30 million euros. The contract should be limited to less than 3 years. I don’t want to sign a long-term contract with Bayern. In addition, I can add a The buyout amount cannot exceed 150 million euros. "

Lin Quan was very assertive about his contract, and Pere just had to negotiate according to his instructions.

Anyway, it's still far from the end of the season, so don't worry, just talk slowly.

Lin Quan believes that as his performance on the field gets better and better, Bayern will definitely give in.
