Chapter 290 Central Defender

"What does he want to do?" Fang Jue's roar resounded in the hotel room.

He just received a report from Ms. Natasha Roberta, the club's sports director, that the team's defenseman Roberto Ayala proposed a salary increase and a contract extension.

Last summer, Ayala joined from Valencia on a free transfer. Ibiza signed a two-year contract with the Argentine veteran and offered him a high annual salary of 1.19 million euros, which is the only one in the Ibiza team. The second highest salary after Fang Jue's annual salary of 1.2 million euros is also the highest salary among players.

Unexpectedly, just after one season passed, the veteran actually proposed to renew his contract with a salary increase.

Leaving aside the salary increase, Ayala is 35 years old this year, and he will be 36 years old after fulfilling the remaining one-year contract with Ibiza. The contract was renewed, and now the Argentine veteran not only proposed to renew the contract, but also to renew the contract with a salary increase!

"It's understandable that the Argentine wants to renew his contract," Ms. Roberta said. "He has performed really well this year in Ibiza. The Argentine media are talking about him changing his contract again. There are even calls for him to come back and return to the Argentine national team."

"No." Fang Jue shook his head. However, he thought for a while and said, "At least not now. I'll wait until halfway through the new season of La Liga and see Ayala's performance before deciding whether to renew his contract."

The competitiveness and cruelty of the La Liga are incomparable with La Liga. Fang Jue is not sure how this veteran will perform in La Liga.

This is the sorrow of the veteran. Ayala feels that he is in a good state and is in his second spring. He wants to take advantage of this momentum to renew his contract and raise his salary to get the last big contract of his career. However, Fang Jue as a The head coach of the team has no problem with his consideration. He is worried about Ayala's age and state in La Liga. He needs to continue to investigate.

There is no problem with the choices of the two people, just different positions.

...

"I'm afraid Ayala will not agree." Ms. Roberta said, and took out another fax. "This is a fax from the Villarreal club. They want to get Ayala."

kindness?

Fang Jue immediately understood that if Villarreal sent a fax begging to buy Ayala, he had no contact with the player himself, and he would not believe it if he was killed.

Ayala's ideas are practical and direct, and there are clubs vying for him, which gives him more choices, and at the same time, he has the confidence to ask for a salary increase and a contract extension.

"What do you think of this fax from Villarreal?" Fang Jue asked.

Fang Jue believes that it is necessary to figure out whether Ayala wants to take advantage of Villarreal's favor to ask for a salary increase and renew his contract, or whether he simply wants to leave Ibiza and join Villarreal. Real, these are two completely different things. The former shows that Ayala still wants to stay in Ibiza, while the latter shows that the player already wants to leave Ibiza to join Villarreal.

"Our judgment is that the player wants to go to Villarreal." Ms. Roberta pushed her glasses and said, "Ayala should be more aware of the attitude of the club. His salary is already very high. It will be difficult for Ibiza to give him a higher salary, the most important thing is..."

"The most important thing is, can Villarreal play in the Champions League?" Fang Jue said.

In the previously concluded 2007/2008 season, Villarreal overwhelmed Barcelona to finish second in La Liga and qualified for the European Champions Cup next season.

Although Ibiza qualified for the UEFA Cup by virtue of the Copa del Rey champion, in the eyes of many people, Ibiza is still just a small team promoted from La Liga. Whether he can stay in La Liga after the end of the season.

Under such circumstances, the invitation of La Liga powerhouse and last season's league runner-up Villarreal will definitely tempt Ayala.

If it is said that after being kicked out by Valencia last season, the disheartened Ayala was invited by Ibiza with a high salary and came to Ibiza, the newly promoted polo team of La Liga, to retire, then, after one season , Ayala is in excellent form, and he himself feels that he has a second spring, the old tree has sprouted, and he has more fighting spirit and appeal, so he wants to join a stronger team.

Fang Jue immediately captured Ayala's possible psychology and thoughts.

...

"Contact with Ayala and his agent to see what he thinks," Fang Jue said.

He has a big headache now, and this accident completely disrupted his plans and deployments for next season's league preparations.

Originally, with the veteran Ayala in charge, Koscielny and Hummels who just joined the team, and two central defenders on the bench, Llorente and Mesoto, Fang Jue felt that The central defenders are very sufficient. He has already planned to sell one of Llorente or Mesoto, and these two players have played as substitutes for a season in La Liga, and they have very little playing time. It is difficult for him to cope with the La Liga arena with his strength, and he also has the idea of ​​transferring and leaving. Fang Jue is just going with the flow...

Now, if Ayala makes a transfer, the configuration of the central defender will be messed up.

Ayala's agent responded quickly, and he made it clear that his player wanted to leave Ibiza to join Villarreal.

Obviously, this shows that Villarreal has even reached a consensus with the players, and even the personal contract is about to be negotiated.

"Roberto, give me a reason why you want to leave." Furious, Fang Jue called Ayala directly.

Argentina, San Lorenzo.

Ayala's manager motioned for him to come and talk to Fang Jue, and Ayala shook his head.

"Coach, it's been a great season to work with you. I'm honored to be able to play under you." Ayala faced the furious Fang Jue, and got angry. For me, this matter is nothing, "But, coach, I can't refuse Villarreal's invitation. I thought my career would end like this, but now I have a lot of fighting spirit. I think I can still play in the Champions League and still be able to..."

"Have you made a decision? Roberto." Fang Jue didn't listen to Ayala's long speech.

With different positions, he may be able to understand Ayala's thoughts, but that doesn't mean he will accept it happily.

"Yes, Coach."

"Very good." Fang Jue said angrily, "Let them talk to the club. If the transfer fee satisfies Ibiza, you can leave."

"Coach, I hope the club doesn't put up barriers," Ayala said.

"I will not prevent you from going to a big club." Fang Jue forced himself to calm down, "But Villarreal has to come up with an offer that suits your status, Roberto, although I am very angry, but, you know I attach great importance to you, and if they want to poach my generals, they will have to pay the price."

"I understand, coach, thank you very much for your cooperation for a season." Ayala said after a moment of silence.

"That's it." Fang Jue paused, "If you transfer smoothly, I will wish you all the best in Villarreal, but if they fail to meet the club's requirements, I also hope you can Return to the team on time, I believe in your professional attitude."

"You can rest assured, coach," Ayala said.

"Very well, then let's do it." After saying that, Fang Jue hung up the phone without hesitation.

Then, he said to Leiberto and Ms. Roberta who were looking at him, "Negotiate with Villarreal and offer 12 million euros."

"It's impossible." Ms. Roberta immediately said, the 35-year-old veteran, 12 million euros, unless Villarreal is crazy, it is impossible to agree.

"Haggling, how to negotiate is your business." Fang Jue was in a bad mood and waved his hand, "My judgment is that they can accept 8 million euros, and the psychological bottom line is 7 million euros!"

"Villarreal wants to get Ayala, okay, show your sincerity." Fang Jue said.

"Okay, I'll do my best." Ms. Roberta nodded.
