Chapter 161 Contract Period

You know, Wolfsburg's tactical system is not like BJ Guoan's 2 or 3 sets of rotations.

As an upstream team in the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg even has a precedent for defeating the super giant Bayern Munich in the league. Their tactical system is definitely not as simple as the defensive counterattack we understand.

Wolfsburg is actually very sincere. The two-and-a-half-year contract is equivalent to giving Zhang Xizhe half a year to adapt, so that Zhang Xizhe can have more time to integrate into the German football culture and the black gold tactical system. Let Zhang Xizhe There is plenty of time to fight for a position in the main rotation.

(We fans still need to be able to clearly realize: Zhang Xizhe wants to compete with Perisic and De Bruyne in Wolfsburg to become the absolute main force, that is simply a daydream. It is not that Yuanmou is not optimistic Zhang Xizhe, on the contrary, the difference in level makes us have to face up to Zhang Xizhe's position in Wolfsburg - Zhang Xizhe can play a main rotation in Wolfsburg is already very successful.)
If Zhang Xizhe can make good use of half a year to integrate into the black gold system, then he will also get some opportunities to play next season to prove his ability.

And after the end of the next season, if Zhang Xizhe's report card is no problem, then Wolfsburg will certainly not hesitate to carry out contract renewal negotiations in Zhang Xizhe's contract year.

But if the report card given by Zhang Xizhe does not meet the wishes of the Wolfsburg executives, they also have more time to maximize Zhang Xizhe's contract in the last year.

For example, they can negotiate with BJ Guoan (there is a clause in Zhang Xizhe’s contract: Zhang Xizhe can only return to Guoan when he returns to China, and Shao Jiayi also had this clause back then), and Guoan will buy out Zhang Xizhe’s last year’s contract for tens of thousands of euros. Or use Zhang Xizhe to other mid-lower teams in the Bundesliga.

We all know that the contract renewals of European clubs generally start from the player's contract year (the last year of the contract), which can not only ensure that the player will not be poached by free agency, but also allow the team to have more operating space.

To give an example: If during contract renewal negotiations, the player Leo opens his mouth, the original annual salary of 100 million, the player needs 500 million to renew his contract as soon as he opens his mouth, and the club can only give 300 million. There can be more time for plan B-to get a considerable transfer fee by sending this player away, and then find a player in the transfer market who can replace the Lions.

The first half of the contract year can be said to be the time for contract renewal negotiations.

If the contract renewal negotiations cannot be completed in the first half of the year, it can be said that it will be difficult to make progress in the second half of the year-unless this is the absolute core of a team.

And this second half of the year will also be the transfer operation period for the club to operate other players to replace the player who is about to leave, and it is also the time for the player who is unwilling to renew his contract to find his next home.

In this regard, our domestic clubs have done very poorly.

And these unprofessional behaviors also led to some jokes like the "Liu Jian transfer case".

If Qingdao Zhongneng can start contract renewal negotiations a season in advance like European clubs, then I believe Liu Jian would also be willing to complete the contract renewal with Qingdao Zhongneng, who was still in the Chinese Super League at the time.

After relegation, Qingdao Zhongneng started negotiations to renew the contract with Liu Jian, who is an expensive international player. I believe that Liu Jian will definitely choose to join Evergrande because of the higher platform and better training opportunities.

Because this is human nature, we cannot use the word "loyalty" to bind a player to pursue his football dream.

There is no loyalty in commercial football, only your love and my willingness!
One exception has to be said here-Dortmund Football Club is still a very "human" club.

Their sports director Watzke respects the players' ideas very much and is very open-minded when players transfer and leave.

For example, Gotze and Lewandowski wanted to leave, and they went to the old enemy Bayern Munich. They did not deliberately stop or block these players.

Even Lewandowski moved to Bayern Munich freely.

Robert Lewandowski transferred from Poznan Lech Football Club to Dortmund. The transfer fee was close to 500 million euros. This amount of transfer fee was considered a considerable expense for Dortmund at the time. .

Lewandowski's free transfer to Bayern Munich not only made the Hornets have no transfer fee income, but also made the old enemy stronger.

Of course, in the transfer of Lewandowski, Dortmund also had difficulties in agreeing to transfer him as a free agent.

Who doesn't make money?

Although Watzke is humane, he is not an idiot after all. If there is a business, it must be done by the business.

Moreover, regarding the transfer of Lewandowski, Bayern Munich has also nodded and agreed to pay a transfer fee of up to 2000 million for Lewandowski.

After all, Lewandowski was already in a contract year at the time.

The transfer fee of 2000 million is definitely not cheap.

Moreover, the three parties are already close to signing the transfer.

But the transfer market is as bloody and procrastinating as the plot of an online novel.

If you don't sign for a day, even if it is the last day, it is easy to change.

It was originally agreed: Lewandowski went to Bayern, Gotze stayed in Dortmund.

But the result...

Since Gotze expressed his strong desire to go to Bayern to the club, Bayern is also particularly interested in such a "little fresh meat".

As the saying goes, flirtatious, flirtatious.

Dortmund can't keep such a player whose soul has already gone to Bayern Munich.

So, Gotze moved to Bayern before Lewandowski.

Gotze's transfer fee is 3700 million, and at this price Bayern Munich can be considered worthy of his old enemy.

In this way, Dortmund had to consider their lineup-Gotze left, Lewandowski also left, so who should be called to play in the frontcourt?

Could it be called back to Lewandowski's predecessor, the Paraguayan Barrios?
No, no, Barrios has long since lost his soul in Evergrande, and asking him to come back might as well buy Gao Lin!
Faced with such a predicament, Watzke could only grit his teeth and be cruel, and played an emotional card with Lewandowski: Lewandowski stayed on the team for one more season, and then let Lewandowski stay in the team next season. Fowski moved to Bayern Munich on a free basis.

Hearing such news, the first to raise their hands and praise must be the final winner-Bayern Munich.

Free yourself!That is equivalent to saving the team 2000 million in transfer fees, although in terms of player contract treatment, Bayern Munich needs to increase the original negotiated contract.

But in any case, it is much more cost-effective than paying a transfer fee to sign Lewandowski.

Lewandowski was also moved.

A free transfer would also allow Lewandowski to secure a more lucrative contract at Bayern Munich, plus a sky-high signing fee.

Such a player transfer operation can be seen-Dortmund is extremely open-minded in terms of player transfers, and will not be entangled in money issues everywhere.

They will not forcibly prevent any player from "surrendering to the enemy", nor will they necessarily squeeze out the value of their own players.

Watzke's enlightened transfer philosophy has also made more powerful players willing to join the Hornets.

... (Suddenly feel that there is a bit too much analysis, so let's go back to the plot!)

At this time, Li Yuming had already read Watzke's profile.

Turned to the fourth page.

A man with glasses and a golden beard appeared in his eyes.

This is the current Dortmund coach: Jurgen Klopp!
Klopp, a former German football player who retired as a coach, led Mainz to upgrade to the Bundesliga for the first time in history and currently coaches Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.

Borussia Dortmund finished a disappointing 13th under Klopp's predecessor, Thomas Doll.

Then, the team decided to fire Dole and hire Klopp, a Stuttgart native who had left Mainz at that time, as the team's head coach.

Klopp then led the team to win the first championship of his personal coaching career, beating Bayern Munich 2-1 to win the German Super Cup.

2010/11年赛季多特蒙德在德甲表现令人眼前一亮，2010年12月6日作客2-0击败纽伦堡，取得连续8场客胜，更将榜首优势扩大至10分，提早三轮赛事锁定半程冠军。2011年尤尔根?克洛普率队第七次获得称雄德甲，时隔9年重回巅峰。

In 2012, Klopp led his team to achieve a reversal when they were halfway behind, and finally succeeded in defending the title two rounds ahead of schedule. Dortmund dominated the Bundesliga for the eighth time in history, and defeated Bayern Munich 5-2 in the German Cup final, achieving the first double in team history. Champion, counting the first two seasons, Dortmund achieved five consecutive kills against Bayern.

Looking at the materials translated by Gao Yu, Li Yuming felt a sense of "unknownness".

This is not only because of Gao Yu's German proficiency, but also the resumes of the team's top executives-everyone can be called a football predator.

Especially Klopp's resume, because Li Yuming is a football player who is a "halfway monk".

Therefore, he was not very clear about the "youth storm" that Klopp set off in European football at that time. He led his young Hornets to successively win various championships in Germany, despite being in the Champions League because of the core of the midfielder. Gotze's injury caused hatred in the final against Bayern Munich, but Klopp's changeable and flexible tactical style still made the fans shine.

After reading it, Li Yuming realized: It turns out that Klopp, who is about to become his head coach, turned out to be such an awesome existence.

Fortunately, Li Yuming couldn't help being amazed without continuing to say "wow".

Otherwise, Gao Yu probably wondered if what he was carrying was Li Yuming, who signed with Dortmund for 4 years!

The road from the airport to the Borussia Dortmund club is not very long.

Li Yuming was also exhausted after reading the materials of several high-level officials, so he fell asleep with his head leaning against the window glass in the backseat.
