Chapter 42 Contract Renewal!The highest salary in the team! [Four thousand words in one]

1 month 27 number.

There are still less than a few days before the end of the European winter transfer window.

The transfer window is coming to an end, and the biggest transfer news in English football is not that Juan Mata, the core midfielder who helped Chelsea win the Premier League and Champions League, switched to Manchester United for a record transfer fee of 3700 million pounds.

Nor is it Chelsea’s acquisition of Basel winger Salah, making him the first Egyptian player in the history of the Blues.

It's about England's rising future star Ling Feng, who has been looted by many Premier League clubs, where is he going?
For the sake of traffic and manuscript fees, media people and transfer reporters, big and small, all joined in this "Where is Ling Feng going" carnival party.

According to "reliable information" obtained from unknown sources, some media people claimed that Ling Feng had arrived in London and was ready to reach a personal agreement with Arsenal;
Some small newspapers speculated that the team Ling Feng joined was located in London, but it was not Arsenal, but Chelsea;
The reason is also very good. Mourinho has just bought the winger Salah who helped Basel double beat Chelsea in the Champions League group stage.

It is also normal to buy Ling Feng, who helped Leicester City eliminate their own team in the FA Cup.

As the saying goes, buy your core if you can't beat it.

This kind of operation is nothing new in football.

Various gossips make the cautious Leicester City fans nervous and uneasy.

I am afraid that the next latest news that pops up is that official Ling Feng announced that he will leave Leicester City and join other clubs.

For most Leicester City fans, they can only urge the club to quickly sign a new contract with Ling Feng by swiping their screens on the club's official website and social media.

However, for the members of Leicester City's largest fan organization "Fox Club", they don't intend to just sit back and watch Ling Feng leave!

So, early in the morning, nearly NO.50 fans wearing Blue Fox jerseys came outside the Belvoir base holding placards they made.

They have only one purpose, which is to show the club the attitude of the fans!

The organizers of this protest were Big William and his friend Bob.

Since today is the day when the team resumes training, the players of the first team have returned from vacation.

When the players of Leicester City drive into the base, they will be a little surprised when they see the fans holding the slogans "Ling, don't go!" and "Ling Feng, stay!"

It would be a lie to say that I am not envious.

It only took Ling Feng less than a month to become the darling of the fans.

As for them, if there are transfer rumors, will the fans keep them like this?
Facing the inquiries from the fans, the players who didn't understand the situation just shook their heads, expressing that they were not clear.

Mahrez, the only one who knew the inside story, tried to maintain an expression of "I don't know anything".

He knew very well that it was impossible for Ling Feng to transfer, and he would sign a new contract with the club.

However, it would be best for him not to leak the news to the fans or anyone until he has negotiated a new contract with the club.

After signing the jerseys for several fans, Mahrez drove slowly into the base.

At this time, Bob, who was paying attention to the transfer news with his mobile phone, turned to look at his friend aside and said:
"William, I just saw a tweet from a sports reporter. He said someone saw Ling at London Airport."

Hearing this, Great William, who was wearing a blue wool cap with the Leicester City team logo on it and his nose was a little red from the cold, immediately said:
"impossible!"

"Ling is a very polite and kind young man. He will not leave like this!"

"But someone took a photo of Ling Feng appearing at the London Airport."

While the two were talking, a black Land Rover slowly approached from a distance.

Seeing an unfamiliar bald man in the driver's seat, the Leicester City fans who were about to surround him stopped immediately.

However, what they never expected was that the middle-aged man in a black suit sitting in the back seat of the black Land Rover was actually the famous Mendes!
And Mendes is the agent Ling Feng just hired.
. . .

At the same time, in a conference room at the Belvoir base.

The club's sports director Rudkin and the team's head coach Pearson sat in their seats, but their faces were restless.

They looked at the door frequently, as if they were waiting for some important person to arrive.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

"It should be soon. The guard said his agent has already driven into the base."

However, when the two saw Mendes walking into the meeting room, both sports director Rudkin and Pearson couldn't help being taken aback.

"Gentlemen, good afternoon."

As the other party blurted out English with a slightly Portuguese accent, Rudkin couldn't help but widen his eyes, recognizing the identity of the visitor!

There is no way, this football giant with many stars under him is too famous.

Suddenly, Rudkin's heart was filled with turbulent waves.

That kid Ling's agent is actually the famous Mendes? !
When did he sign with Mendes? !
Just when Rudkin was shocked, everyone shook hands and sat down after introducing each other.

As soon as he sat down, Mendes spoke first and took the initiative in the negotiation:

"Gentlemen, I might as well give you some news."

"Chelsea, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and other Premier League clubs have all proposed generous conditions to my clients. Even Mr. Arsene Wenger from Arsenal has personally called my clients."

Hearing this, Pearson immediately frowned, "But Ling told me yesterday that he's not going anywhere!"

"Indeed, my client hopes to stay and work with the team to qualify for the Premier League."

"However, you should understand that he does not only have one choice."

"So, my client hopes to see the club's sincerity. A new contract with reasonable benefits is a must!"

"That's why I'm here!"

Facing Mendez's slightly aggressive attitude, both the sports director Rudkin and the head coach Pearson were shocked.

It is indeed the most skillful agent in football in recent years!
In fact, the moment they saw Mendes, they were already mentally prepared for the possibility that the other party would make a big move.

However, they were also willing to be slaughtered.

After all, once Ling Feng leaves with a liquidated damages of only 100 million pounds, the club's loss will be huge.

Whether it's reputation or profit.

As long as they sign a new contract with Ling Feng, they can have Ling Feng's future.

Even if he plans to sell Ling Feng in the future, with his potential and ability, he can still bring a lot of money to the club!
"At all costs, Ling Feng must be kept!"

This is the final conclusion reached by the Leicester City club’s senior management after an emergency meeting last night.

Ever since, after hearing Mendez's request, sports director Rudkin did not hesitate at all and directly expressed his position:
"Of course, we are very sincere in renewing the contract with Ling."

"We hope to train Ling Feng as the future of the team, and he is our youth training player, a child of the club. The club and fans hope that he can stay here for a long time."

Hearing Rudkin's words, Mendes smiled slightly, and then said:

"Very well, then let's talk about the details of the new contract."

. . .

Under the premise that one party is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, the negotiations went very smoothly.

Mendes didn't waste much time and secured a new contract with generous benefits for Ling Feng!
First of all, Ling Feng's weekly salary changed from [-] pounds to [-] pounds!
It has skyrocketed by 150 times!
Compared with the weekly salary of tens of thousands or even more than [-] in the Premier League, this amount is hardly worth mentioning.

Due to excellent business operations, the Premier League’s broadcast fees are simply

The broadcast income of the Premier League teams is divided into three parts: 50.00%, 20.00% five and 20.00% five, and each part is allocated to each club according to different standards.

First of all, 50.00% of the domestic broadcast revenue is shared equally by the twenty clubs, with an average of £400 million per club.

In addition, 20.00% of the broadcast revenue will be distributed according to the number of broadcast games, and the teams that are broadcast more times on TV channels will get more income.

The final 20.00% five is allocated according to ranking.

Each place is worth £170 million.

By analogy, the team ranked last can receive 170 million pounds, and the team ranked first can receive 500 million pounds!
Precisely because of the huge benefits after being promoted to the Premier League, almost all the English Championship teams hope to rush to the Premier League and make a lot of money!
Compared with the broadcast income of tens of millions of pounds for each team in the Premier League, each team in the secondary English Championship can only obtain about 300 million pounds in broadcast income.

The huge difference in broadcast income has also created a huge gap in the salary levels of Premier League players and Championship players.

The weekly salary of the top players in the British Championship fluctuates between [-] and [-].

Considering Ling Feng's qualifications, his weekly salary of [-] pounds is already the maximum salary in the team!

You know, most of the players on the team still have a weekly salary of less than [-].

Even the team's highest weekly salary, Schmeichel and captain Morgan, is only 1 pounds.

This means that after signing the new contract, Ling Feng will become the highest paid player on the team!

This shows how sincere the club is in order to keep Ling Feng.
As for bonuses, in addition to the basic goal award and assist award, there are other bonus terms, such as:
Get the best player of the month in the British Championship once, with a bonus of [-] pounds;

Winning the season's assist leader, or the season's best player, a bonus of [-] pounds;

Help the team win the British Championship, with a bonus of [-] pounds!
The purpose of increasing these bonus terms is to motivate Ling Feng to perform better and focus on helping the team achieve victory and success.

After the salary and bonus, there is the salary increase clause after being promoted to the Premier League.

Once Lingfeng helps Leicester City advance to the Premier League this season, his salary will increase by 30.00%!
In the end, the two parties had some differences over the terms of the termination fee.

Unlike La Liga, which likes to add hundreds of millions of termination clauses to contracts, Premier League clubs generally do not add termination clauses when renewing contracts with players.

However, in Mendes' view, Leicester City is Ling Feng's career springboard.

As long as he leads Leicester City to the Premier League and performs well in the Premier League, Ling Feng can enter the vision of the five major league giants and thus "marry into" the giants.

Adding the termination fee clause can make future transfer operations easier and ensure that the club will not force Ling Feng or

However, from the club's point of view, Rudkin is definitely unwilling to add a termination clause to the contract.

If Ling Feng performs well and is worth more than the contract fee, wouldn't their club suffer a loss?
Although very reluctantly.

However, under Mendes' strong request, Rudkin still made a compromise for the sake of future transfer fees.

The termination fee is 3000 million pounds!

The contract period is five years!

After the two parties reach an agreement on the details of the contract, the players themselves need to sign the contract in person, and then make an official announcement of the news to bring the transfer turmoil to an end.

After overfulfilling his task, Mendes walked out of the conference room, took out his cell phone and dialed Ling Feng's number.

"Ling, it's me."

"Mr. Mendez, what's the matter?"

"The negotiations are over, you can come to the club to sign."

"Good, thank you very much."

Half an hour later, Ling Feng, who was waiting for news at home, rode his beloved bicycle to the Belvoir base.

"It's Ling!"

The moment they saw Ling Feng, the fans outside the base immediately swarmed up and surrounded him.

"Ling! Don't go!"

"Ling, you won't leave, will you?"

"Ling, we need you!"

Feeling the concern from the fans, Ling Feng felt warm in his heart.

These fans, whether on or off the court, have always supported him in different ways.

Facing the expectant eyes of the fans, Ling Feng smiled and replied firmly:
"Don't worry, guys, this is my home and I won't leave!"

He said so on his lips, but Ling Feng did not forget to murmur in his heart:

"At least not now!"

Hearing that Ling Feng himself promised to stay, the fans immediately let go of the big stone in their hearts.

At this time, a rough voice sounded:
"Good job! Ling! I knew you wouldn't betray us!"

Following the prestige, Ling Feng saw a familiar face among the crowd.

"Hey, you are Great William?"

Seeing that Ling Feng recognized him, Great William immediately showed a happy smile.

"Haha, you still remember me?!"

"Of course, you are the first fan to ask for my autograph!"

"We didn't take a group photo last time, let's take one this time!"

After signing autographs for the fans and taking photos with William, Bob and others, Ling Feng rode his bicycle and slowly entered the base.

After coming to the meeting room and carefully confirming the terms of the new contract, Ling Feng couldn't help giving Mendes a thumbs up in his heart for his negotiation skills.

"As expected of you!"

Witnessed by lawyers from both sides and witnessing Ling Feng signing his name on the new contract, sports director Lu Dejin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After signing the contract, Ling Feng was taken to the press room to take pictures of the contract renewal.

In the room with the huge Leicester City team logo on the background wall, Ling Feng, wearing a blue fox training uniform, was sitting behind a table with a pen in his hand, making the appearance of signing a contract.

Then he looked up at the camera pointed at him and smiled brightly.

With a "click", the scene was frozen.

This photo of the contract renewal was immediately uploaded to the official website and social media by Leicester City Club.

The headline reads - "Our contract with the future of the team has been renewed!"
