Chapter 893 Managers Are All Vampires (Part 1)

"We didn't contact the player, nor did we contact the player's agent." Ferguson was so cunning that he naturally wouldn't let Fang Jue catch him on the surface.

I bother!

You don't contact the player, you don't contact the player's agent?

Just pretend what you say is true.

So, the player's family?

Where are your friends?

"Dream!" Fang Jue refused to talk about De Gea with Ferguson.

He figured it out, the old man was a routine, he mentioned Ronaldo at the beginning, just to mention De Gea later.

The meeting between Fang Jue and Ferguson ended unhappy.

Fang Jue was very angry, not only because of the old man's "despicable" behavior, but also because of De Gea's "contact" with Manchester United in private.

In Fang Jue's view, this is unacceptable behavior.

What's wrong with Aston Villa?

Where am I sorry for you?

You actually want to leave the three consecutive Premier League champions and go to Manchester United, a "poor settlement".

Of course, this is just angry words, and Fang Jue also knows that Manchester United is naturally not a shabby settlement.

Don't look at Aston Villa's prosperity now, but in the eyes of everyone, it is still incomparable with a veteran giant like Manchester United.

This is the background and attractiveness of the giants.

However, Fang Jue was still angry when he knew it. He couldn't understand why De Gea left Aston Villa.

Although he didn't know the exact willingness, his intuition told him that there must be a shadow of Manchester United behind it.

...

"What's going on with De Gea?" Fang Jue called Byron, the general manager of the club, to the office and asked with a cold face.

"His agent has offered to give De Gea a raise, which I'm going to report to you," Byron said.

"Tell me specifically." Fang Jue rubbed his temples. The team performed well, won the league championship again, and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

In this case, it can be expected that players will ask for a salary increase.

Fang Jue was prepared for this.

Players cannot rely on love to play football, and salary increases are inevitable.

It's just that De Gea hooked up with Manchester United as soon as he proposed a salary increase, which surprised and angered Fang Jue.

"His agent offered a maximum salary of £80,000," Byron said. "I declined."

No, Fang Jue nodded.

At present, Bell's weekly salary in Aston Villa's team is 120,000 pounds. However, the Welshman has a 20% salary increase clause every year. Therefore, after June 30, Bell's weekly salary is £144,000.

Apart from Bale, Aston Villa's maximum salary is 80,000 pounds, and currently only team captain Clement has a maximum salary of 80,000 pounds.

Among the other players, Milner is worth 55,000 pounds, Abang Laho is 50,000 pounds, Modric is 45,000 pounds, and Suarez is only 30,000 pounds.

However, both Modric and Suarez joined last winter, and their salaries were also set at that time. There will definitely be salary increase negotiations this summer.

De Gea has performed well this season. A good young goalkeeper can be used for many years. Fang Jue is naturally willing to give De Gea a salary increase.

However, it would be too much to directly raise the maximum salary from 25,000 pounds to 80,000 pounds.

"I knew all these managers were bloody vampires." Fang Jue scolded angrily, "That bastard, why didn't he say 100,000 pounds?"

Fang Jue felt that De Gea's young man would not open his mouth so loudly, it must be his agent making a fuss.

Byron opened his mouth and reminded, "That's Mr. Mendez."

Fang Jue: w(Д)w.

...

Fang Jue called Mendez and questioned the matter.

The two had an argument on the phone.

Fang Jue thinks that Mendes and De Gea have opened their mouths. Of course, the most important thing is that he is not satisfied with the private contact between the other party and Manchester United.

Mendes categorically denied that he or the player himself had contacted Manchester United in private, saying that it was just a message from an intermediary.

As for the lion's big mouth, Mendes sneered even more. He said that De Gea deserves that salary, why?

It's very simple: the middleman sent word that Manchester United is willing to offer De Gea a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds.

"Mr. Fang Jue, I have considered the actual situation of Aston Villa and have persuaded the players to make concessions. Therefore, we only proposed a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds. If we want to match Manchester United's ten A weekly salary of 10,000 pounds, that's the lion's big mouth." Mendes said bluntly.

The two had a heated argument, which was very unpleasant.

Whether Fang Jue questioned Mendes, or Mendes asked for a high salary for De Gea, and even had contact with Manchester United in private.

Fang Jue should consider the interests of the team and the balance of salary.

As De Gea's agent, Mendes must consider the interests of his clients.

This is all official business, both sides have their own positions, and neither side has personal relationship involved.

After the fierce quarrel, both parties calmed down and their tone improved a lot. Mendes asked how Santiago was doing. Fang Jue said that the little guy was naughty and that he missed his grandpa.

Mendez laughed happily.

Compared with the tense and quarrel just now, this scene is not too warm.

...

Hanging up the phone, Fang Jue fell into thought.

Manchester United actually offered a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds to seduce De Gea.

Obviously, this is the temptation that De Gea cannot refuse.

Aston Villa is an upcoming giant in the Premier League. The current situation of the team is very good and the results are outstanding.

However, Manchester United is a veteran giant with higher influence and attention.

In this case, the salary issue plays a decisive role.

Although very angry, Fang Jue also knew that under such circumstances, most players could not refuse this temptation.

It is impossible for Aston Villa to offer De Gea a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds.

£80,000 is not only the top salary in the Aston Villa team other than Bale, the weekly salary of £80,000 is an absolute high salary even if you look at the Premier League.

Take Manchester United as an example, in addition to Rooney's weekly salary of 260,000 pounds, that is, Ferdinand's weekly salary of 120,000 pounds, Evra's weekly salary of 100,000 pounds, Ashley Young's weekly salary of 100,000 pounds, Park Ji-sung's 9.5 The weekly salary of 10,000 pounds and Vidic's 90,000 pounds is higher than 80,000 pounds.

However, the old man Ferguson even offered a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds to seduce De Gea, which is also a big investment. Vidic and Evra have worked hard for so many years, and De Gea can be on par with them as soon as they come up.

To give another example, Arsenal's maximum salary is 100,000 pounds a week, and only two players in the team receive a maximum salary of 100,000 pounds.

In fact, Aston Villa's salary increase is very rapid. Looking at the current situation, it will surpass Arsenal this summer.

De Gea was "seduced" by Manchester United. It is more difficult to solve it.

Therefore, although it is not yet certain that De Gea has decided to go, Fang Jue has to plan ahead.

However, Fang Jue is not too anxious about De Gea. De Gea joined Aston Villa last summer. At that time, he signed a five-year contract with Villa. The young Spanish goalkeeper and Aston Villa still have On a four-year deal, Aston Villa dominated.

Fang Jue has other important things to be busy with.

The next day, Fang Jue arrived in Milan in his own private business jet.

He hoped that his trip to Milan would come in full swing and return with a rewarding experience.

...

On the day of arriving in Milan, Fang Jue met with AC Milan's Brazilian central defender Thiago Silva and his agent Paulo Tonieto in a relatively secret place.

Naturally, this was not a meeting behind the AC Milan club's back. This was communicated with the Rossoneri through formal channels in advance.

AC Milan has lost the Serie A title this season, and the club is showing some signs of turmoil. The financial situation of this old Italian giants is not optimistic. Berlusconi's desire to inject capital has greatly diminished. The stars cash out.
