Four Hundred and Three, the First Annual Salary in the World

Although the team had officially announced its disbandment at the championship celebration ceremony, the next morning, Su Dong still got up early for training, mainly for some recovery training.

Nuno Cruz and other members of the personal trainer team have already started taking vacations, so Su Dong practiced alone.

After the training, he accompanied his parents to have breakfast, and then let the driver drive and take Wang Chuqing to the airport in person.

She booked an early flight back to Munich today.

Because of the camouflage, no one was found along the way.

Perhaps, everyone in Barcelona has not woken up from last night's carnival.

When Su Dong returned home, Mendes was already waiting for him.

"Congratulations, Sue! What a great performance!"

As soon as Mendes saw Su Dong, he immediately got up and greeted him, smiling from ear to ear.

Today's Su Dong is like a cash cow. Mendes doesn't need to do anything at all. Every day, someone will take the initiative and do everything possible to send money to his door, which makes him thoroughly taste the thrill of being the world's top superstar agent.

Not to mention anything else, even the world's top brands such as Nike, BMW, and Audi have deep business relations with him, which has allowed him to develop deeper channels and personal connections than before. Business is very helpful.

Su Dong is also quite satisfied with his agent.

Mendes has been able to spread his career in recent years, not only because Su Dong is leading the way, but also because he is really capable.

If nothing else, just for his reputation among the players and his long-sleeved good dance between players and clubs, this Portuguese agent is by no means ordinary.

The business is getting bigger and bigger, and Mendez is no longer the same as before, who is surrounded by Sudong all day long. I heard that he is even involved in the third-party ownership business of some players, mainly in South America, where the football environment is relatively chaotic. Especially Brazil.

I had mentioned it to Su Dong before and asked him if he was interested, but Su Dong did not plan to participate.

Third-party ownership is a nice thing to say, but if it's bad, it's really tossing players as commodities.

As a player, Su Dong is still quite disgusted by this, but he can't stand the chaotic South American football market, especially in Brazil, there is indeed a strong demand in this area, and naturally there is a business in this area.

Mendes is a broker. From the perspective of a businessman, if he doesn't do it, the market will be taken away, which is understandable.

...

"Yesterday, Soriano called me and now he is in charge of player transfers and contract renewals."

After the two chatted for a while, Mendes took the initiative to talk about the progress of the renewal.

Renewing the contract with Su Dong was something that Barcelona had already decided half a year ago. Laporta also mentioned this matter to Su Dong himself before, saying that he would start the contract renewal negotiations with Su Dong after the season.

Now that the Champions League has arrived, and all the games of this season have been settled, it should naturally be put on the agenda.

Su Dong brought Mendes for the same reason.

"What did they say?" Su Dong asked with concern.

"As far as I know, in addition to you, Iniesta and Messi are also included in Barcelona's contract renewal plan. Messi should be officially confirmed. I heard that the annual salary offered is one million euros, which is not bad. ."

Su Dong is not surprised, this is what it should mean.

Whether it is Messi or Iniesta, they have performed very well this season, and even the two of them have begun to threaten Giuli's position. The French winger is now unable to integrate into the team, and he does not have enough cards to let the ball. The team specially tailored right-sided offensive tactics for him, resulting in his current position is not solid.

Sometimes it is like this, the tactical authority of the team is so much, if it is given to one person, it cannot be given to another person.

The point is that Giuli has been sidelined for a while due to injury this past season, when Iniesta and Messi played well.

Coupled with the support of Su Dong, the two have risen very quickly in Barcelona.

Everyone knows that Xiaobai and Messi are both Su Dong's little followers.

"Marcos Senna will also renew his contract, but I'm still talking, I hope to further establish his position." Mendes laughed.

This is another treasure under his hands.

You know, when Su Dong recommended it to him, Mendes didn't care much, and even looked down on it a little, but after Marcos Senna played a game in Barcelona, ​​Mendes was surprised to find that he picked it up by himself. to treasure.

"Senna does have the strength to play the main force. It is a good thing to fight for it, and he is not too young. If you don't fight now, it will be even more difficult in the future." Su Dong still supports Mendes' idea.

Marcos Senna was recommended by him, and he is also his iron. For such a player, Su Dong must strongly support him. More importantly, he is really not young. After 30 years old, It is estimated that Barcelona will not have much interest in renewing his contract with him, and will have to retire to other teams to retire.

Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the present and strive for the main position, and at the same time try to strive for the length of the contract.

This should be the last long-term contract of Marcos Senna's career.

"What about me? What's their position on me?" Su Dong asked with concern.

Mendes smiled. In fact, Su Dong's contract renewal is the best thing to talk about, because the initiative is in the hands of Su Dong and Mendes.

"Barcelona is very sincere in renewing the contract. They really want to finalize the contract as soon as possible, but there are several problems now."

"tell me the story."

"First of all, the most important thing is the annual salary. The annual salary offered by Barcelona is 8 million euros after tax, which is much more than before. The bonuses and appearance fees have also been relatively improved. To be honest, I am not very satisfied with this. ."

"Eight million euros?" Su Dong thought for a while, but actually thought it was okay, "As far as I know, the salaries offered by Real Madrid to superstars such as Zidane, Ronaldo, Raul and Beckham are all taxes. 6.4 million euros after that."

Su Dong's implication is that after tax of 8 million euros, it is actually okay.

All along, his concept of annual salary is not particularly strong, because the annual salary is not even 30% of his income.

Now most of his income comes from commercial sponsorship, especially from some world-class brands.

In today's world football, apart from Su Dong, only Beckham can do this.

But you know, when it comes to commercial sponsorship income, Beckham doesn't even have half of Su Dong's.

It is not difficult to understand why Su Dong doesn't care much about the annual salary.

"We don't compare with the Galactic Battleship, because Florentino was born in the management of a large group. He attaches great importance to the salary structure. You know, why did Real Madrid sell Makelele? I would rather let him go than be satisfied. His request for the slightest salary increase?"

"Salary structure?"

Mendes nodded, "Real Madrid attaches great importance to Makelele from beginning to end, Florentino is not stupid, everyone can see the importance of Makelele, but the problem is, if Makelele's annual salary requirements are met , others will follow, and Real Madrid's overall salary structure will follow, which exceeds the salary red line set by Florentino."

Su Dong also heard about this, and later let McManaman and other substitute players go for the same reason.

In the final analysis, the joining of Beckham has greatly increased Real Madrid's salary expenditure, which naturally squeezed the salary space of players such as Makelele, and Real Madrid eventually had to sell him.

As for what Florenceno said to the outside world, someone who could replace Makelele could be found at will, but that was just a statement after deciding to sell, and it is estimated that even he himself would not believe this.

"I found some information recently." Mendes smiled as if offering a treasure.

"what?"

"You know, when Laporta first took office, Barcelona's annual salary was as high as 120 million euros, and who has the highest salary?"

"It seems to be Kluivert, I remember, the media reported it at the time."

This is also the reason why Barcelona was determined to sell the Dutch center. The salary was too high, but it did not play its due value at all.

"His annual salary after tax was more than 10 million euros, which was the highest annual salary in world football at the time, and there was no second one, and Mendieta's annual salary was also very high, reaching 7.5 million euros in taxes. After the annual salary, there are Puyol, Riquelme, Luis Enrique and others, their annual salary has reached or even exceeded 5 million euros, and even Gerard is close to 5 million euros.”

Kluivert, Mendieta, Riquelme, Luis Enrique and others, retired, retired and transferred, have all left Barcelona, ​​and Gerard is basically determined to transfer this summer .

Puyol is the captain and the backbone of the defense. His annual salary is slightly lower than that of Sudong and Ronaldinho.

If the information Mendez has received is true, then Barcelona's annual salary structure during Gaspart's time is indeed ridiculously high, and it can even be said to be completely out of control.

"We won the Champions League this season. According to the usual practice, there must be a salary increase. I got news that Ronaldinho's annual salary requirement for the renewal of the contract has already reached 9 million euros. Barcelona now wants to Squeeze our annual salary down and talk to other people."

Su Dong understood what Mendes meant.

Barcelona's operation strategy is very simple. If Su Dong's annual salary is only 8 million euros, how can other people talk about it?

At that time, Ronaldinho himself would be embarrassed to offer an annual salary of nine million euros, right?

It can also be said that on the surface this is Su Dong's contract renewal, but in fact, it is also a contract renewal negotiation for other players.

"What do you mean?" Su Dong asked.

This isn't really what he's good at.

"We're not demanding, at least like Kluivert."

When Mendes said this, he smiled proudly: "You are now a double football player, and just in the Champions League final, you helped Barcelona complete such an epic comeback, and what did Kluivert have? He If we can get an annual salary of 10 million euros after tax, why can’t we?”

Su Dong nodded slightly, making money, who would think too much?

Besides, it's one thing to be short of money, but it's another thing to pay attention to it.

To a certain extent, the annual salary is a reflection of how much the club attaches to a player.

However, Su Dong thought of another question.

"I'm going to add a special clause to the contract."
