Chapter 127 Renewal of Contract
Li Xiaoming renewed his contract with Manchester United for four years, and the new contract will expire at the 2014 World Cup.

In order to keep the biggest core of Manchester United as much as possible, Manchester United can also be said to have spent a lot of money. They paid an astonishing weekly salary of 52 pounds. Even knowing that Li Xiaoming's annual income has reached a very scary figure.There are 400 weeks in a year, [-] pounds per week, and a yearly income of [-] million pounds. If you add some bonuses or endorsements, Li Xiaoming's income in the first year of his career
Even among peers, no one should have achieved it.

And this is only less than half of the number of Ferdinand and Rooney, even slightly worse than Nani.

However, this is much higher than Li Xiaoming's weekly salary before, and it can also be compared to the core players of some other teams in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, but it is only a basic figure among the giants.

In fact, for a 19-year-old rookie who has just entered professional football, a weekly salary of 13 pounds is definitely too much, but the reason why Manchester United offer such a tempting weekly salary is not only because Manchester United is rich, Instead, they found that they had received a lot of offers for transfer intentions, including many high-value contracts. Secondly, the Manchester United people were pleasantly surprised to find that Li Xiaoming's No. [-] jersey was sold globally, especially in Asia and China. They have received a lot of online quotations. Although they are far behind Cristiano, Li Xiaoming still has a lot of room for business potential in a business market with a population of [-] billion.

With such a high weekly salary, he made concessions on portrait rights.

The Manchester United people also have their own caution.

The key and essence of this renewal contract is the termination clause.

With their life-and-death insistence, a termination clause is still added to the new contract, but the amount of the termination clause has been increased a lot.This can also be regarded as the concession made by Li Xiaoming and Mendes, or the sincerity of staying at Manchester United.

According to the new contract, starting from the last year of Li Xiaoming's contract with Manchester United, any team that can offer a transfer fee of 5000 million euros can directly take Li Xiaoming away.

5000 million euros is already a huge amount of money for the current world football, especially for a midfielder. You must know that Iniesta is worth this amount.If any club was willing to spend so much money, even Li Xiaoming would seriously consider selling it.

Therefore, this termination clause is acceptable to Manchester United.

Li Xiaoming and Mendes can also accept it, because he feels that if he continues to have such a good performance, he should be worth 5000 million euros in a few years.Mendes even told Li Xiaoming more than once that Zidane's worth reached 7000 million euros eight years ago, and Mendes always believed that Li Xiaoming's worth should be higher than that.Of course, these are all private conversations between Li Xiaoming and Mendes, but it also shows that Mendes is optimistic about Li Xiaoming.

If the team that is interested in him is really sincere at that time, he won't mind spending 5000 million euros to "redeem himself".If the money is not willing to pay, it first means that the opposing club does not really need me, and second, it means that the team is not strong enough and not worthy of me.

This number is like a touchstone, it can test the sincerity of pursuing Li Xiaoming's team, and it can also help Li Xiaoming screen out many unreliable teams, save Li Xiaoming's time and narrow his choice range.

Based on these considerations, Li Xiaoming agreed to the release clause of 5000 million euros proposed by Manchester United.

Manchester United is generally satisfied with this contract, and Li Xiaoming is also very satisfied.

Both parties feel they have earned it.

After the contract was negotiated, and even before Li Xiaoming signed with the club, Manchester United couldn't wait to announce on their official website that they would renew their contract with Li Xiaoming.

"...We are very happy to announce today that Li Xiaoming has chosen to stand with the club! Li Xiaoming will extend his contract until the end of the 2014 World Cup."

Manchester United's official Twitter account posted such a tweet, which was quickly retweeted by the media and Manchester United fans.

This is equivalent to the official announcement that Li Xiaoming will stay at Manchester United for several years.

As the Manchester United club predicted and hoped, after the news was spread, Manchester United made a big splash in the media. Many media used words such as Manchester United retaining the future midfield superstar. To describe Manchester United's contract renewal, you must know that Li Xiaoming made them stay here with a transfer fee of only 3000 euros. Now in the eyes of some media and teams, Li Xiaoming's value is more than [-] million euros.

For a time, everyone was happy in public opinion.

And on China's Weibo, the news of Li Xiaoming's contract renewal quickly became a trending topic on Weibo.

After a training session, Li Xiaoming held a signing ceremony with Manchester United at the Carrington training base.

Witnessed by several journalists and the main person in charge of the club, Li Xiaoming and Ferguson, who is the club's transfer manager and head coach, signed their names on the contract respectively.

Then they held Li Xiaoming's jersey and took a group photo in front of the camera.

In the photo, Ferguson and Li Xiaoming are smiling brightly, with red faces.

Woodward on the side is really happy with this result from the bottom of his heart.His presence at the scene in person has shown that he attaches great importance to Li Xiaoming. You must know that only stars of Rooney's level will appear on the scene. As the chairman, he is very busy.

However, for at least a period of time, he can fully consider Manchester United's development in the Asian market and the Chinese market.

At the signing ceremony, Ferguson highly praised Li Xiaoming to the reporters: "Everyone remembers that when he came to Manchester United's Carrington base for the first time and faced doubts, I told everyone that he would be Our core. In the past few months, he has successfully proved his performance. I am very happy for Li Xiaoming's choice and our continued signing. This is undoubtedly the right choice. Manchester United is one of the best clubs in the world. A young man with such talent should play for the best club in the world. I think he made the right choice. Of course, he still has a lot of shortcomings, but also he is still very young. I think he has a bright future. There is no limit."

The reporters piled their microphones in front of Li Xiaoming, wanting to hear what he had to say.

"I am very happy to be able to complete the contract extension with the club. As I said, Manchester United has given me enough opportunities. Ferguson and my team-mates have given me a lot of help. I know why I want to stay here, and There are many friends of mine here, and I don't just mean my teammates..." Li Xiaoming talked with a lot of microphones. "In the future, I will go all out and do my best to help the team. This is to repay the fans' love for me. I hope that in the first season of my career, I can use many championships as my career. Get off to a good start in your career.”

As he spoke, reporters were snapping cameras down below.

That night, these photos appeared on the Internet. The news of Li Xiaoming's contract renewal with Manchester United was finally confirmed. Those media who have been talking about Li Xiaoming's transfer in the winter should stop, and more fans are discussing Regarding the topic of Li Xiaoming staying at Manchester United, the fans all agreed that Manchester United and Li Xiaoming made a correct decision, which is a win-win choice.
