Chapter 78 Professional Contracts
"Edwin, this annual salary, I think our sincerity is enough. You have seen Lin's performance this season. 6 goals and 7 assist in 1 games, this performance is the best in the Eredivisie. In Europe and those talented players It’s not much better than that.”

"Ali, I understand. I believed in Lin's talent from the very beginning. But your 3+2 contract is really not good. We are willing to give an annual salary of 110 million euros. Can a five-year contract work?"

When Ali heard this, he already understood.

The annual salary of 110 million euros, at first glance, belongs to the middle level in Ajax.

But it's not.

Although in the Ajax first team, the highest annual salary is Huntelaar's 227 million.

In such a comparison, Lin Kedi's 110 million is estimated to be in the middle of the Ajax team, right?
But below Huntelaar's annual salary of 227 million euros, there is Ziyech's 150 million euros, and below that is Schone's 139 million euros.

Therefore, the 110 million euros given by Van der Sar actually belong to the annual salary level at the top of the second echelon in the current Ajax first team.

Compared with the same period, De Ligt's annual salary is 65 euros, while De Jong's is only 77 euros.

Although Lin Kedi performed very well, after all, he represented the first team for half a season, so Ali also knew that the annual salary given by Van der Sar was really quite good.

At this point, Ali ended the negotiation, and then began to negotiate with Lin Kedi.

"110 million euros, 5-year contract."

"110 million euros? You talk so much?"

"You have performed so well recently, so naturally the price can go up. Lin, I feel that the price has reached its peak. The next thing we need to talk about is the contract period. A shorter period will be more beneficial to us. Especially seeing you perform so well, I can't wait to see you shine on a bigger stage."

Eredivisie League round 5.

Ajax travel to The Hague to challenge Den Haag.

The Hague is the capital city of the province of South Holland and the third largest city in the Netherlands with a population of about 53.

Although The Hague is not the legal capital of the Netherlands, the central government of the Netherlands is here, the King of the Netherlands also lives here, and all government agencies and foreign embassies are also here.

So as soon as you arrive here, you can feel a feeling of the capital.

Lots of police and security.

It is completely different from the unrestrained atmosphere of Amsterdam.

The league opponent Den Haag is a Chinese-funded team.

But no one would associate The Hague with Lin Kedi.

After all, Lin Kedi is now Ajax's main player, and Den Haag is just a mid-lower team in the Eredivisie.

In addition, there are no Chinese players in the Den Haag team, so the Chinese media did not hype the game.

Of course, before this season, the Chinese media in the Netherlands will be present in both Vitesse and Amsterdam, but this summer, after Zhang Yuning announced his transfer to West Bromwich Albion, all the Chinese media in the Netherlands gathered Here in Amsterdam.

However, The Hague also has several resident Chinese media there. The main reason is that The Hague is a Chinese-funded team.

During the game, the Chinese media were chatting.

"Why does Zhang Yuning have to leave the Netherlands? You see, it has been more than a month. Zhang Yuning can only train with the second team of Bremen to play in the German third league."

"Hey, there is no Bundesliga. They can't even play in Bundesliga, and they haven't registered successfully, so this season, at least until the winter window, Zhang Yuning has no games to play."

"Hey!"

"What are you talking about? I really don't want to praise you. Do you really think that Zhang Yuning's talent and ability can be compared with Lin Kedi?"

"Of course I know that the two are completely incomparable, but now there are few Chinese players studying abroad, and Zhang Yuning has been so wasted for half a year."

"Half a year? He joined Werder Bremen on loan for two seasons. Unless he sublets later, otherwise, he will have no chance to play in Germany."

"Why talk about Germany, we are in the Netherlands, just talk about Lin Keene."

"That's right, watch Lin Kedi's game to relieve your anger."

In this game, Lin Kedi performed well. He shot many times on the offensive end and penetrated Den Haag's defense many times.

In an attack in the second half, Lin Kedi launched an attack, and in the end, Dolberg scored 1 goal.

Although the score of this game is still a small score of 1 to 0 victory.

But after the game, Ajax fans were satisfied with it.

Because what Ajax played in this game was offense, offense, or offense. This is the way Ajax fans like to see the game most.

Although the final goal conversion rate is lower, as long as the offense is enough, and with the win, the Ajax fans are also happy.

And something that makes them happier is coming.

9 month 19 day.

Ajax's official website listed a piece of news in the most prominent position.

"Official: Ajax Club signed a professional contract with Lin Kedi. The contract period ends in 2021. Ajax Club has a one-year priority option to renew the contract."

On this news page, there is also a photo of Lin Kedi shaking hands with Van der Sar, both smiling happily.

The photo below is the one signed by Lin Kedi.

The third is a photo of Lin Kedi, his parents Lin Daosheng and Xu Yanli in front of the Ajax team badge.

As I said, Ajax specially invited Lin Daosheng and Xu Yanli.

And the release of this news also made the ball hanging in the hearts of Ajax fans fall to the ground.

After all, Lin Kedi has been on a youth contract before, and his annual salary is very low. Ajax fans have always worried that Lin Kedi will be hooked up by teams from other leagues.

Especially Lin Kedi has performed so well recently.

So from the first round of the league, Ajax fans have been asking the club to immediately sign a professional contract with Lin Kedi on various occasions.

And now it's finally signed.

In the afternoon, the largest Dutch newspaper Telegraph also exclusively disclosed Lin Kedi's salary.

“110万欧元的税后年薪，2.1万欧元的周薪。同时还有进球和个人奖项奖金条款。荷甲联赛进球数达到10球，奖金10万欧元。荷甲联赛进球达到20球，奖金15万欧元，累积奖金。荷甲联赛金靴奖50万欧元。欧冠进球数达到5球，10万欧元。欧洲金童奖获奖70万欧元。入选欧洲金球奖23人大名单55万欧元。荷甲联赛最佳年轻球员奖金15万欧元，荷甲联赛最佳球员奖金50万欧元，入选荷甲联赛最佳阵容10万欧元。”

"If Lin Kedi can meet all the bonus clauses within one year, then Lin Kedi's annual salary will be 395 million euros. Of course, this is only theoretical."

And this news was quickly reproduced by the domestic media.

"Lin Kedi signed a 4-year professional contract with the Ajax club, with an annual salary of 814 million yuan and a weekly salary of 16 yuan."

As soon as this news came out, it was immediately on the hot search again.

Even in the Chinese Super League of Jinyuan Football, Lin Kedi's salary ranks among the top among Chinese players.

What's more, Lin Kedi is only 16 years old.
