Chapter 118 Give up the Champions League?

The No. 9 jersey has the ultimate temptation for Varim.

Especially Hoffenheim's number 9 jersey.

In fact, before joining, he never thought that Hoffenheim would really award himself the No. 9 jersey one day.

After all, in his opinion, for teams like Hoffenheim, the No. 9 jersey belongs to the kind of talented and young players.

Varim didn't doubt his talent, but he was too old.

For this reason, he has never expected this jersey.

But now, when Steven puts the No. 9 jersey in front of his eyes, he can't take his eyes off it.

This is the jersey worn by super centers such as Morsi, Biartini and Jamie who once dominated the Bundesliga.

The meaning and responsibility of the jersey itself made him feel tremendous pressure.

But even so, he still wanted to wear it.

"The moment you put it on, you have to fight to protect the stadium, especially when the team is at a disadvantage. The first thing the fans look for is the number 9 jersey. You must have the courage to resist this. pressure?"

Steven handed the jersey forward again, as if to seduce Varim.

Varim's expression became more and more serious, and then he slowly stretched out his hands to take the jersey, hugged it firmly in his arms, and said with firm eyes: "I'm sure!"

Varim accepted the No. 9 jersey, which means that the No. 9 jersey, which has been absent for about a year and a half, will return to the Dome Stadium.

And Steven also believes that Varim can inherit the will of the No. 9 jersey.

This is an encouragement, but also an incentive!

 …

"Warim accepted the number 9 jersey?"

In the office, Zhang Xian held the document in his hand and asked casually.

Steven nodded and said, "Yes! His expression told him that he was very excited!"

Zhang Xian put down the file slowly and asked, "How many more years do you think he can play?"

Steven shook his head and said: "I don't know, at least the current Varim is still showing the peak level,

It may be one or two years, or it may be five or six years, no one can tell. "

Zhang Xian nodded slowly and said, "I see. Someone from the personnel department will contact Varim in a while. Since he wears the No. 9 jersey, his contract needs to be re-signed."

Steven nodded.

Hoffenheim has a clear salary scale.

Even more so for those players who wear important jerseys.

"There are still several commercial endorsement contracts to find him, let me be ready."

Zhang Xian said in one breath.

Now that Varim was accepted into the inner circle, he didn't mind paving a way for Varim.

It is unclear how far the opponent can go, but at least the club has done it.

As for the commercial contract, it is to improve Varim's family environment.

I heard that this guy is still renting a house.

In fact, the house price in Hoffenheim is not high, but this guy still didn't choose to buy a house.

On the one hand, it is the embarrassment of salary, on the other hand, it may be thinking about returning to England.

For the latter, Zhang Xian resolutely put an end to it.

Now that he is playing for Hoffenheim, he can't leave until the club allows him.

After saying this, Zhang Xian said, "There is new progress on Roquel's transfer issue!"

Hearing this, Steven was refreshed.

Roquel is a very important piece of Steven's lineup puzzle, so he pays special attention to it.

"Turin still has no intention of giving up on Roquel. They have rejected us for the first time, and we are ready to activate the liquidated damages clause!"

Steven was stunned.

He murmured; "That... That's two hundred million!"

Zhang Xian nodded and said, "Yes, but isn't he worth the price?"

It would be Steven's turn to be silent.

After a while, he said; "I'm not sure I can use him well, or achieve the desired effect of the club."

Zhang Xian said with a smile: "I have only one request for you, and that is to win the game. As for other issues, they will be handled by the club."

"We will help Roquel strive for more personal honors, and at the same time help him build momentum and make him more famous, but correspondingly, he also needs to pay a lot of price. I think he understands this truth."

Steven pursed his lips and said, "This includes the Golden Globes?"

Zhang Xian nodded without hesitation.

Steven couldn't help but shook his head and sighed; "This is really a difficult task!"

If it is a World Cup year, he can lead Hoffenheim to the semi-finals, and at the same time, if Argentina performs well in the World Cup, it is not impossible.

But when there is no World Cup, the Champions League will become a very important assessment point.

The most important thing is that Hoffenheim has only participated in the UEFA Champions League once, so they don't have enough experience!

For Steven, it will take at least three to four years to help Roquel reach the position of the Golden Globe Award.

And this is only theoretical.

This is an extremely difficult task.

But he didn't dare to say no, after all, he knew very well that the general manager in front of him didn't like this sentence very much.

This man has his own set of rules.

While obtaining great convenience for the club, it will also exert extremely strong pressure on the team.

Today's Hoffenheim Club, the men's and women's football teams, including the gymnastics team, are all going to glory under the leadership of Zhang Xian.

Especially the men's and women's football teams are already at the Champions League level.

On the women's football side, someone even won the European Women's Golden Globe Award early. Although the gold content is not high, it still ushered in a lot of fame for Hoffenheim.

It's just that the commercialization of women's football is not enough. For this reason, if you want to take the club to the next level, you can only use the Champions League or more collective and individual awards to speak.

For this season, Hoffenheim's goal is the Bundesliga.

"The Champions League, when are you going to play?"

The meaning of Zhang Xian's words is obvious, and it's almost time to stop.

Zhang Xian has never pinned his hopes on the Champions League, and judging from the current situation, the Champions League has largely distracted Hoffenheim.

At the moment when it is about to enter the battle for points, Hoffenham is entangled in the Champions League, which is not good news.

Regarding this, Steven pursed his lips and said, "I will not give up any game!"

This is his bottom line.

Even though Hoffenheim has hard targets or season tasks, he still cannot give up the Champions League.

Zhang Xian looked up at the other party, and suddenly smiled and said, "Have you never thought about a problem? What will happen if you don't complete the task I issued?"

Steven frowned and said, "I will be responsible for this."

Zhang Xian waved his hand and said, "That's not what I mean. What I want to say is that if you can, you can take the lead in completing the club's tasks. If it's Christopher, he will give up the Champions League without hesitation."

"I know you don't want to give up on any game, but some give up for a better future."
