Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 248 I need a reason that is convincing enough.

Shan Yongzhuo was really looking forward to the holiday, but he still couldn't help being disturbed by others.

Russell.

Shan Yongzhuo did not know this guy, but he came to visit Shan Yongzhuo in person as the president of Barcelona, ​​and reporters even took pictures of him at the door.

Out of politeness, Shan Yongzhuo had no choice but to let him in.

As the newly appointed president of Barcelona, ​​who is in a very high position, his personal trip to distant Manchester to visit a Manchester player speaks volumes about his purpose.

Shan Yongzhuo dislikes the other party's behavior of bypassing the club and agent and directly contacting the player privately.

Therefore, he didn't say much, not even many polite words.

Shan Yongzhuo went straight to the point and asked, "I want to know what reasons you have prepared to convince me to leave Manchester City and join Barcelona."

Shan Yongzhuo himself was also quite puzzled by this.

Many clubs are interested in him, but in reality, very few clubs are actually bothering him and Kroos because his phenomenal performances have driven his market value up rapidly. France Football has valued him at 130 million euros, much higher than Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Such a price tag also means that if you want him to transfer, you would need to prepare at least 150 million euros.

150 million euros.

Even the wealthiest clubs don't have many transfer funds to handle Shan Yongzhuo's transfer. Barcelona is one of the clubs with the capability to do so, but Shan Yongzhuo is still very curious about how much money Barcelona will allocate to his transfer and what kind of treatment they have prepared.

He himself has no intention of leaving Manchester City, and given Manchester City's financial strength, they would not care about more than 100 million euros. Therefore, it would be very difficult to actually arrange Shan Yongzhuo's transfer unless Shan Yongzhuo himself causes a transfer.

Rosell was somewhat shocked when he heard Shan Yongzhuo's words. He did not expect Shan Yongzhuo to be so blunt, and he seemed to look down on Barcelona.

However, it is difficult to explain a person's personality.

Rosell expressed his understanding of the situation and began to praise Barcelona, ​​saying, "Barcelona is one of the best clubs in the world, and I think no player would refuse an offer from Barcelona."

Shan Yongzhu listened patiently.

"Everyone has seen your performance, and naturally Barcelona has seen it too. Coach Guardiola is also very interested in you and hopes you can join the Barcelona squad."

"The best player joining the best team is the most wonderful thing in the world. You will become a world-dominating combination with Messi."

"That's why I came here in person, wanting to talk to you..."

Dan Yongzhuo interrupted him impatiently. He was no novice who was easily flattered by the other party's high praise.

"Just tell me directly what conditions Barcelona has prepared; that's all I care about."

"Are you asking about the account transfer fee?"

"That has nothing to do with me." Shan Yongzhu waved his hand and laughed. "If I were to join a new team, I would need a reason that is convincing enough, such as annual salary, status within the team, or something like that."

Russell stated confidently, "You will receive the highest annual salary."

"How much exactly?"

Rosell thought for a moment and said seriously, "I believe you can earn more than 1200 million euros a year."

Shan Yongzhuo sneered, "Do you know how much I make in a year at Manchester City?"

Russell listened.

“Ten million pounds.” Shan Yongzhuo said calmly, “I can earn at least ten million pounds a year at Manchester City. Let me be frank, I have no intention of leaving Manchester City. Of course, your sincerity is not enough. If you can offer a salary of more than 2500 million euros, I might consider it.” “How much?” Rosell thought he had misheard.

Shan Yongzhuo smiled and shook his head.

Rosell took a deep breath and realized that the other party was indeed asking for an exorbitant amount, and didn't seem as eager to join Barcelona as many other players.

But upon closer reflection, it seems that what the other person said also makes sense.

Manchester City won the treble this season, and Shan Yongzhuo is still the absolute core of Manchester City, earning more than £10 million a year. From this perspective, the other party's demands are reasonable.

Otherwise, what right do they have to leave Manchester City?

Offering an annual salary of only 1200 million euros would indeed be insufficient to entice them.

Rosell found himself speechless.

Originally, he wanted to arrange Shan Yongzhuo's transfer to solidify his newly appointed chairman position.

Barcelona has just won the Champions League title. If they can take advantage of this momentum and sign Shan Yongzhuo in the summer, they will have a good chance of winning the Champions League next season. If they can win the Champions League again, his position as president will be very secure.

But now he finds that it simply won't work.

Firstly, the salary offered is insufficient; the other party's demands are too high.

Moreover, Shan Yongzhuo's statement that it was a normal transfer, meaning following the normal club procedures, is far too difficult.

If it were any other club, Rosell would have felt there was still hope, even if it were European giants like Bayern Munich or Manchester United. But precisely because it was Manchester City, he felt there was no hope.

Manchester City is arguably the richest club in Europe, and they won't give up Shan Yongzhuo for just over 100 million euros.

That's the crux of the problem.

Russell left with a wry smile.

After seeing Rosell off, Shan Yongzhuo didn't take the other party's advice to heart at all; he didn't have the Barcelona or Real Madrid dreams that those Latin American players had.

After a few days of rest, Shan Yongzhuo began his European trip.

Cross drew up a schedule for him, which included more than a week of meetings with various companies, signing contracts, shooting commercials, and participating in events. Shan Yongzhuo felt like a puppet, but he endured it for the sake of money.

After participating in a series of events, Shan Yongzhuo quietly arrived in London, boarded a plane to the capital, and returned home quietly in mid-June.

Very few people knew about Shan Yongzhuo's itinerary, so he was not bothered by many reporters and returned to his hometown in a very low-key manner.

After a year apart, Wang Huilan, the mother, was overjoyed to see her son return. Although her father, Shan Benfu, also wore a cold expression, he was secretly happy to see his son come home on time every day to cook dinner.

Shan Yongzhuo was also very happy, and he even specially filmed a set of advertisements for his father's beer.

Since becoming the spokesperson for my family's beer, my dad's beer business has been booming and has started to expand to other provinces.

Then, Shan Yongzhuo stayed at home every day.

This is a rare break.

In the summer of 2011, there were no major matches to play, and the national team only had two World Cup qualifying matches against Laos at the end of July.

Although Gao Hongbo did not say that Shan Yongzhuo had to participate in these two matches, Shan Yongzhuo, who has a strong sense of "national honor," still volunteered to participate in these two matches, which left Gao Hongbo speechless.
