Football: Banned for life, forced to travel to Europe

Goncalves has been in a good mood these days. When he recommended Wishing to the team for the second time, he received many offers that seemed more reliable.

Newcastle United 1500 million euros, Fulham 1600 million euros, Villarreal 1200 million euros...

The highest bidder was La Liga's newly promoted local team Malaga. They asked for 1500 million euros plus 500 million floating, for a total price of 2000 million euros, which is very close to Goncalves' recommended price.

Abdullah al-Thani, a member of the Qatari royal family, bought a majority stake in Malaga last year and became the new owner of the team.

At the beginning, Arsani still retained the team leadership team at that time, but after half a season passed, the team's performance was very poor, and he couldn't sit still.

Arsani first invited the former head coach of Real Madrid, Chilean engineer Manuel Pellegrini, to coach the team, and then made a big purchase in the winter window. Putista and other powerful players joined in one after another.

In the second half of the season, Málaga swept away the decline and won a five-game winning streak that broke the team's history. Although they only ranked No. Looking forward to the new season.

In the new season, Arsani listened to Pellagrini's advice and exempted the veteran Ruud van Nistelrooy; he also introduced teenagers Isco and Joaquin from Valencia. (That is the one who has played in La Liga for 20 years, and the one who renewed his contract at the age of 42 this year)

Ruud van Nistelrooy will definitely not be able to play for a full season. Now Malaga only has a 21-year-old Venezuelan striker Salomon Rondon (the one who played in the Premier League and later joined Dalian Yifang).

Rondon moved from Las Palmas to Malaga last year. After joining the team, he scored 31 goals in 16 games, averaging 0.5 goals per game, and his performance was not bad.

But Rondon wants to go to the Russian Super League to seek gold. Although the two parties can stay for another year after negotiation, Pellegrini has to find a suitable replacement.

When it comes to gold rush, I have to mention the crazy Russian Super League in the past few years. Abramovich is not the only oil oligarch. Kazan Ruby, St. Petersburg Zenit and Anzhi Makhachkala have all invested a lot of money. Golden dollar football.

This year's world's No. 2050 annual salary is not Ronaldo, Messi and Kaka, but Anzhi's Eto'o. They offered Eto'o a high salary of [-] million euros after tax, and almost no one can refuse.

This is also due to Russia's low tax rate, the tax rate of the Russian Super League is only 13%, which means that Anzhi only needs to give Eto'o a pre-tax annual salary of 2360 million.

In contrast, the tax rate of the Premier League and Bundesliga is about 45%; Serie A is 43% + 5%, close to 50%; La Liga is 43%, but La Liga has the David Beckham Act-the effect of less than 6 years The tax rate for foreign players is 24%, the purpose is to attract big-name players to La Liga.

(In 2009, the David Beckham Act was temporarily revised, which greatly increased the personal tax rate of foreign players, which had a great impact on La Liga and caused dissatisfaction among many players and clubs. It was restored in early 2011. )

This is why Premier League players often contribute to the Western Super League, Real Madrid and Barcelona are attractive on the one hand, and more importantly, they can make a lot of money.

In other words, Ronaldo has an annual salary of 1300 million euros after tax, and Real Madrid only needs to pay more than 1700 million before tax. Messi has a Spanish passport, and his tax rate is 43%, so his annual salary of 1050 million euros, Barcelona has to pay More than 1840 million euros.

Pellegrini took a fancy to Wishing. In his opinion, Wishing is more comprehensive than Rondon, and his body is also stronger than Rondon, which is more suitable for Malaga's lineup.

Moreover, Malaga can offer a higher annual salary to Wishing. They understand that Wishing’s salary in Portugal is only more than 100 million, but in Spain it can be at least tripled. They are not afraid of wishing to be unmoved.

"Malaga? No, no."

Wishing shook his head like a rattle. He knew Malaga's short-lived rise. In fact, it only took two or three years. In the 2011-12 season, they finally ranked fourth in La Liga and won the right to participate in the Champions League qualifiers.

In the 2012-13 season, Malaga entered the Champions League main match, passed all the way, and almost entered the semi-finals of the Champions League, and then the local tyrants in Qatar withdrew their capital...

When I wish to hear the name of Malaga again, it will be the news of their bankruptcy. At that time, they have already been relegated... I will not go to this kind of muddy water to make a wish.

But these things cannot be made clear to Andrea, so he had to find an excuse, "Didn't we talk about it? The worst thing is to find a team that can play in the Europa League. Malaga does not have a European war."

"But Malaga has made a lot of signings this season, and they are full of ambitions."

"I like Totti better than Roma. Doesn't Serie A also have tax relief for foreign players?"

"Yes, but Rome will not give you a higher salary than Malaga, and I have received news that the Swiss consortium's proposal to acquire Rome has been rejected."

Wishing for a while, "Then the Sensi family is in charge of Rome?"

Andrea nodded, "For now, yes, otherwise they wouldn't make an official offer."

Wishing was a little worried, "Does Rome still have money?"

"Vucinic's transfer fee is about 1500 million. Paris has taken a fancy to Menez. His worth is around 1000 million. It is enough to buy you. Now it depends on how Goncalves chooses."

After making a wish and expressly refusing to join Malaga, Goncalves put the focus of the negotiations on Roma.As for the few teams in the Premier League, he had no contact at all. After learning about the suspension of Wishing, Goncalves knew that Wishing would definitely not get a labor permit, and talking about it was useless.

After the giants such as Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in making a wish, it is possible for him to pass the special talent clause, but that has nothing to do with Benfica.

After waiting for another two days, Goncalves found that there were indeed no other offers from other teams, so he took the initiative to contact Roma. This time he offered 2200 million euros.

Both parties have made offers, and the differences are not too big, then everything that follows seems irreversible.

One wants to buy and the other wants to sell. It didn’t take long before Roma raised the offer to 1800 million euros. If Roma can enter the Champions League, Roma will pay an additional 200 million euros. 40 million euros extra.

However, because Rome's finances are not very good, they plan to adopt the method of installment payment, and propose a down payment of 600 million euros, and the remaining 1200 million euros will be paid in three years, 400 million per year.

The offer of 2200 million euros moved Goncalves, but he was not very satisfied with the installment. He wanted to get as much cash as possible, so that he could scratch a few more lottery tickets, and maybe he could scratch out the next wish.

The two sides dragged it out again, and Rome gave in again, with a down payment of 800 million euros and the remaining 1000 million euros to be paid in two years.

Only then did Goncalves nodded in agreement. He accepted Roma's offer on behalf of Benfica, and now Roma can negotiate a personal contract with Wishing.
