The midfield king of football life

Chapter 36
The 31st round of the Eredivisie League is over. Twente is currently the top scorer with 65 points, and Ajax is second with 64 points. There are still three rounds left in the league. There is still hope for Ajax to win the league championship.The last round of the league was Ajax's home game against Twente. Many media speculated that that game may be the decisive game to determine the ownership of this year's Eredivisie champion.

Eindhoven temporarily ranks third in the standings. In theory, it is possible to compete for the championship, but that is only in theory.So this year's Eredivisie champion is still in suspense, and it can be said that there is no suspense for the third or fourth place.

During this time, Chen Shihan was so busy that she became dizzy.Although Li Feng has only played two games in the Eredivisie, his outstanding performance has attracted the attention of many clubs.In China, Li Feng's popularity has also skyrocketed, and some domestic sports brands are also willing to seek Li Feng's endorsement.

When Li Feng was preparing for the last three training sessions of the youth team, Chen Shihan received a call from the Ajax club.

It was Van der Sar, the new marketing director of Ajax, who came to contact Chen Shihan.

"Miss Chen, you are our old friend of Ajax. I won't beat around the bush. We hope that Li Feng can play for Ajax next season. I think the stage of Ajax will be more suitable for him." Van der Sar said.

"Mr. Van der Sar, I would like to take the liberty to ask, if Li Feng goes to Ajax, what position will he get?" Chen Shihan asked tentatively.

Van der Sar was taken aback when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Ask about the status in the team before asking about the salary. It seems that it is not easy to get it done."

Afterwards, Van der Sar said slowly: "This year we are very confident that we can win the league championship. Then next season we will face three battles in the Champions League, league and cup competitions. Therefore, if Li Feng performs well, he will mainly use it as a reserve force, such as the rotation between cup competitions and league competitions."

"Mr. Van der Sar, Li Feng's ability is not inferior to Eriksson's. According to the current situation, next season Li Feng can play the main midfielder position smoothly, but in Ajax, Li Feng can only play as Eriksson's substitute at most. This is unacceptable to us, because now Li Feng needs enough playing time to improve himself, so I'm sorry, thank you for your invitation!" Chen Shihan replied politely.

Van der Sar could only accept it happily when he heard this, and said slowly: "Okay, if there is any unexpected situation on Feyenoord's side, you can contact me again."

Chen Shihan nodded politely.

At present, it is the best choice for Li Feng to keep Feyenoord. He needs to practice here. Only after one or two full seasons of fighting can he truly adapt to the professional arena.Now that Li Feng finally got the starting position, it would be very unwise to decide to transfer at this time, because other clubs may not give you the treatment of starting the game, and may only play as a substitute.

Not long after Ajax van der Sar left, Chen Shihan received a call from Eindhoven's sports director Marcel, who asked to talk about Li Feng's intention to transfer to Eindhoven tomorrow.

On the third day, without waiting for Eindhoven's sports director Marcel to speak, Chen Shihan said directly: "Mr. Marcel, Mr. Van der Sar from Ajax has approached me yesterday. We cannot accept the conditions they offered."

Marcel was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and then asked with a smile, "What's your condition?"

Chen Shihan said slowly: "Ajax will face a third-line battle next year, and Li Feng needs to share some of the pressure in the past, mainly in the cup and league rotation. I think your situation in Eindhoven should be similar to that of Ajax. If this is the case, we will continue the discussion unchanged. Because what Li Feng needs now is enough games to exercise and improve himself."

Hearing this, Marcel showed an indescribable expression, and then he said slowly: "Although Wijnaldum has signed a transfer agreement with us, God knows how he will perform next season. I can guarantee you that Wijnaldum and Li Feng can compete fairly, and whoever performs well will get more starting time in the team."

Chen Shihan smiled slightly when she heard this: "Mr. Marcel, you spent so much effort to sign Wijnaldum, and then signed Li Feng just to let the two compete? This may make people feel too hasty."

When Marcel heard this, he already felt that there was nothing to do.If this happens, Feyenoord will definitely not agree.Even poaching their two main midfielders, the enmity has grown, and poaching them is still used as a backup.

In the past few days, Chen Shihan has successively received calls from clubs including Alkmaar, Twente, and Vidis. In comparison, Li Feng should be the best choice in Feyenoord now.

Feyenoord Sports Director Baredis heard that clubs were contacting Li Feng's agent one after another, he couldn't sit still immediately, and quickly called Chen Shihan to discuss Li Feng's contract renewal.

The next morning, Baredis came to the coffee shop he had made an appointment with Chen Shihan early in the morning.He already felt that it was a bit late to talk about the contract renewal. Li Feng performed very well in these two games. He wanted to wait for Li Feng to lose a game before talking about it, so that he could take the initiative, but the current situation was exactly the opposite of what he expected.If it drags on and something goes wrong, the club chairman might let him go.

Chen Shihan saw that Baredis had arrived, and said politely: "Mr. Baredis, nice to meet you."

Baredis smiled and said, "Miss Chen, you are so beautiful!!"

Chen Shihan smiled slightly, and continued: "I don't think we need to beat around the bush, let's talk straight."

Baredis laughed, and continued: "After the club's discussion and decision, we are willing to provide Li Feng with a five-year professional contract and guarantee his starting position in the team, with an annual salary of 5 euros and a liquidated damages clause of 20 million euros."

Chen Shihan smiled contemptuously and said, "Mr. Baredis, is this how the club embarrasses its players? The annual salary is 20 euros, the contract is signed for 5 years, and the liquidated damages are 1000 million euros. You are kidnapping!"

"I can tell you with certainty that we cannot accept such a clause. Anyway, Li Feng's one-year contract is about to expire, and we are not in a hurry. There are many clubs in the Eredivisie that want Li Feng."

Baredis laughed when he heard this, and continued: "This is a decision negotiated by the club. If you have any requirements and conditions, you can raise them. I think we can discuss it again. After all, Li Feng came from the Feyenoord youth training camp, and this is his home."

Chen Shihan said with a lot of people: "The contract is 2 years, the annual salary is 50 euros, and the liquidated damages clause is 500 million euros, which guarantees Li Feng's starting position in the team."

Chen Shihan stated the conditions and requirements simply and directly.

Baredis smiled and said: "Miss Chen, you will definitely not be able to pass this clause in the club. You are asking us to train future stars for other clubs."

After several rounds of negotiations, Chen Shihan finally reached an agreement with Feyenoord.In the end, Li Feng got a 2+1-year professional contract, signed for two years, with a floating period of 1 year. If the floating clause is entered and completed, the club will award a loyalty award of 20 euros. Li Feng's annual salary is 30 euros, plus 20 signing fees, and the liquidated damages are set at 800 million euros.
