Chapter 156 The Dust Settles
"Well, now, apart from Schalke 04, you don't have many choices. If you reject Schalke 04, then Inter Milan will not push you to the transfer market. They are not willing to push you out now. " Raiola said something again, he also needs to inquire about the news of Inter Milan, especially the new head coach Mourinho's opinion on Zhang Yuan.
What Zhang Yuan and Raiola don't know is that Mourinho is also very entangled now. Because of his status as a champion coach, he will have a great say in the transfer when he coaches Inter Milan this time.
He is naturally clear about Zhang Yuan's performance in the Bundesliga. Branca has already communicated with Mourinho about Zhang Yuan. He hopes that Mourinho will keep Zhang Yuan. Branca's opinion The madman can ignore it, but then the chairman Moratti also called him and said that he hoped that Zhang Yuan could have a place in the team in the new season.
The madman can't ignore it, but he can basically guess Zhang Yuan's thoughts at random. If Zhang Yuan wants to come back, he must want the main position. Mourinho absolutely cannot agree to this. Before finding out the bottom line, there is no main force, and it is impossible for him to promise the position of main force to Zhang Yuan. This is not in line with his character. He is the boss in the team.
In addition, the situation of Inter Milan is actually that the strikers are completely enough. Whether it is 442, 433, or 4312, Inter Milan can handle it completely, and the madman will also introduce some players he admires. Zhang Yuan's ability is also the same. Admittedly, Mourinho realizes that everyone may not reach an agreement on the playing schedule, but he is a bit reluctant to let Zhang Yuan go. Zhang Yuan can bring changes to his tactics, at least in his mind. The young man Balotelli is much more reliable.
As a result, Mourinho's hesitation missed the last chance. Schalke 04's head coach Fred Rutten called Zhang Yuan first.
Rutten's appointment has really confused many people. He has no experience of coaching in the Bundesliga before, and he has always been coaching in the Netherlands, but his coaching performance has been tepid to be honest, and there is nothing too prominent Performance.
It is reasonable to say that such a person would not be in the scope of Schalke 04's coach selection, but Rutten changed because of one person. This person is Mulder. Mulder was Rutten's assistant coach in Twente. The relationship between the two is very good. Mulder has another identity. He has played for Schalke 04 for a long time. With Germany's opinion, Mulder strongly recommended Rutten to manager Muller. He believed that Rutten was the most suitable head coach for Schalke 04.
After many consultations, Schalke 04 finally listened to the opinions of Mulder and manager Muller, and chose Rutten as the head coach of the new season. Mulder also went to Schalke 04 to play for Rutten. Rutten found out the bottom of Schalke 04.
The 07-08 season ended, Buskens left with a sense of loss, Rutten and Mulder took a short vacation, and soon started working for Schalke 04.
The transfer power of the Bundesliga is not owned by the coach. Schalke 04 executives have decided to win Zhang Yuan this summer regardless of whether Lu Teng agrees or not. Therefore, they informed Lu Teng that Zhang Yuan must be included in the plan for next season. At the same time, Mulder also told Ruteng that Zhang Yuan was the best player in the second half of Schalke's 04 season and was deeply loved by the fans. He also suggested that Ruteng should ensure Zhang Yuan's position in the team.
Rutten carefully watched the Schalke 04 game video, Zhang Yuan won his approval, and he now has a preliminary idea, Zhang Yuan will become the core of Schalke 04's striker next season, Kuranyi Will withdraw from the stage of history, and he will give Zhang Yuan more space in the frontcourt.
"Zhang, in my plan for next season, I hope you will become one of the core players of the team. I will give you more freedom and space in the frontcourt, and you will lead the offense in the frontcourt! I believe you are capable of taking on the responsibility. More responsibilities! So I hope you can choose to stay, which will be of great benefit to you and the team!" Rutten said earnestly on the phone.
To be honest, Lu Teng and Zhang Yuan explained the team's plan for next season in detail, and Zhang Yuan had already made up his mind that it would be best to stay in Schalke 04 next season, but he still had reservations about Lu Teng on the phone.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Lu Teng, I will make the right decision!" Zhang Yuan replied.
Putting down the phone, Zhang Yuan immediately called Raiola to ask about the progress of the negotiation.
"My goal is to increase your after-tax salary to 150 euros, but they hope to maintain the salary at 100 million. There are not too many differences in appearance fees, goal rewards, and assist rewards. The issue of portrait rights is very serious. It’s complicated. They want all the portrait rights. I definitely don’t agree with this, and I believe you won’t agree either. You have to know that you have a big market in China, and your influence in Europe is gradually increasing now. If They get all the portrait rights and you will suffer a lot in terms of income!"
Zhang Yuan agreed. As Raiola said, many stars now earn far more from commercial sponsorship than their original salary, and portrait rights are very important.
"My idea is that the right of portrait can be owned by them, but the condition is that the sponsorship and advertising endorsement signed by you personally will not be shared by the club, and you must have a share of the jersey sales and advertising revenue for the club! Let them give up the right of portrait. It's too difficult!" Raiola said the solution.
Player portrait rights are also very important to clubs. Clubs will use player portrait rights in seeking sponsorship or advertising. If there is no player portrait right, it means that they have to give players money. This is something that every club is unwilling to see .
Zhang Yuan thinks that Raiola’s handling is very good. He is not willing to share the advertising sponsorship revenue with the club. In Inter Milan, he owns 100% of the portrait rights. At that time, it was because Inter Milan was not aware of Zhang Yuan’s development prospects. How big is it, and Raiola, as his agent, has considered this in advance, and obtained [-]% of the portrait rights through negotiations.
This time the situation is different. Zhang Yuan has already gained fame. Schalke 04 will never give up this right. Zhang Yuan is not a top star yet and does not have the capital to say "NO" to this rule. Raio La can only fight for Zhang Yuan's interests to the greatest extent.
After waiting for two days, Raiola called Zhang Yuan again, and the negotiation with Schalke 04 was over. The annual salary after tax was 100 million euros, maintaining the previous level at Inter Milan, but appearance fees, goal rewards, Assist rewards and rewards for winning various championships have increased. In addition, the negotiation of portrait rights was finally agreed according to Mino Raiola's plan. The contract period is three years. Originally, Schalke 04 wanted to sign for five years. But Raiola refused to agree, and finally Schalke 04 made a concession.
After listening to Raiola's analysis, Zhang Yuan felt that the conditions were acceptable to him, so he made a formal decision to leave Inter Milan and join Schalke 04, and when he returned to Germany, both parties signed to confirm the transfer.
Schalke 04 informed the Inter Milan club that they had reached an agreement with Zhang Yuan, and now they are waiting for Zhang Yuan to come back and sign. Blanca is very sorry to hear the news. He feels that Inter Milan has missed the striker for the next ten years. banner.
And Mourinho was also very sorry, when the reporter asked about Zhang Yuan's departure, the madman said: "He is a very talented young man, but I can't give him too many opportunities here, leaving is a matter of course! "
The matter of Zhang Yuan's transfer is basically settled, and at the same time, the matter of being selected for the National Olympic team is also settled. Now it will soon enter July, and the National Olympic team has not notified Zhang Yuan, so basically there is no possibility that's it.
This matter is very controversial on the Internet. Most fans criticize the Football Association. They think that Zhang Yuan is now the number one star in China. He is not too old. Why can’t he be selected for the national team? There are also a small number of fans who think that the Football Association made such a decision. There is nothing wrong with it, Zhang Yuan has not represented the national team in even one game before, and now the hasty selection may not bring anything good to the Olympic team, but may affect the balance of the team.
What everyone doesn’t know is that the head coach of the Olympic team, Dujkovic, advocated calling Zhang Yuan into the Olympic team because of Zhang Yuan’s unhappiness with the Football Association. He studied Zhang Yuan very carefully and believed that Zhang Yuan could Things that bring enthusiasm to the team, but some people in the Football Association don’t see it this way. Some people interpret Zhang Yuan’s failure to say hello to the Olympic team during the last warm-up match as disrespect for the leadership. It was an intolerable thing. This time, when there was a dispute, these people said that Zhang Yuan had never participated in relevant competitions before, and there was a big problem with the whole team. The Olympic team should not recruit him.
The end result is that Zhang Yuan lost the opportunity to join the Olympic team.
