Chapter 216 Farewell Party

After Ye Qiu's proposal in public, the subsequent award ceremony seemed to have become a foil.

It is no wonder that the award ceremony for the Champions League finals is held once a year, but in front of tens of thousands of fans and hundreds of millions of spectators around the world, such romantic things are hard to come by.

Many fans were even proud of themselves because they were on the scene and witnessed this moment with their own eyes.

In many journalists' articles, they all said that Ye Qiu's proposal in public will definitely become a great story in the history of Champions League football and even in the history of football around the world, and will become a romance that fans talk about.

Florentino stood on the podium with Johnson and others. He had a good impression of Ye Qiu. After tonight, he became even more sure that after tonight, Ye Qiu's value and influence will surely rise rapidly like a rocket.

It’s not that Ye Qiu did it on purpose, but the media wouldn’t pay attention to you. What they want is novel gimmicks and hype.

Ye Qiu did this, not only did he win the beauty, but his reputation soared, but UEFA also benefited a lot.

This made Florentino even more certain. Ye Qiu was very consistent with his requirements for the helmsman of the Galaxy Battleship. Although Ye Qiu was younger and not qualified enough, his coaching ability and his star temperament were enough to cover up his shortcomings.

So, when Boske led Real Madrid players to receive the runner-up medal, Ajax players walked up to the podium one by one, Florentino waited until Ye Qiu walked past him, and hugged Ye Qiu enthusiastically.

"Congratulations, Mr. Ye Qiu, your team is very, very outstanding, very combat-ready, and worthy of this championship."

"Thank you, Mr. Florentino," Ye Qiu responded with a polite smile.

Florentino always smiled kindly, "I wonder if Ajax will stay in Manchester tonight, or if you will stay for a few days after you return to Amsterdam?"

Ye Qiu shook his head, "We will return to Amsterdam tonight, and I may go back to my motherland tomorrow."

"Oh, that's a pity." Florentino was a little disappointed, "I always wanted to find a chance to have a good talk with you."

Ye Qiu nodded, "That's fine, let's make another appointment."

"A word is determined," Florentino pointed at Ye Qiu and said.

"One word is determined" Ye Qiu nodded and agreed.

As the players received the medals one by one, Ye Qiu was the last one and took over the medal representing the Champions League championship from Johnson. Then Johnson went to present awards to Ajax's players, and the winner was the team's captain Van der Sar.

However, after Ye Qiu's crazy actions just now, the atmosphere of receiving the prize has been reduced a lot.

The players are still very excited, and the fans are still very excited, but in the end they still feel that they are not as crazy as before.

Ye Qiu did not participate in the team's celebration, he always stood aside and looked at it with a smile.

Huang Chu had already returned to the stands, and the happy beauty was accepting the jokes of her parents and her future parents-in-law.

Van Prag came to Ye Qiu's side. Chairman Ajax finally straightened his back in front of the giants such as Florentino. He finally fulfilled his promise when fans forced him to show up in UU in the past and would definitely lead Ajax to revive.

"I've decided." Van Prager walked to Ye Qiu's side, and the first sigh was a sigh, and then he went straight to the topic.

"What to decide?" Ye Qiu was a little confused.

"Do you remember the promise I made to the fans in the UU year?" Van Prag asked with a smile.

More than three years have passed, and Ye Qiu’s memory has become blurred and I don’t remember it very clearly.

"I said at the time that I would leave Ajax, but only if I want to lead this team to a revival."

Ye Qiu was stunned, and then he understood that Van Prag was leaving the position of Chairman Ajax, but why?

To be honest, the team has won the triple crown now, and Van Pragg's position in the hearts of the fans can be said to be at its peak. Everyone knows that if Van Pragg had not been keen on the wise and decisively appointed Ye Qiu, it would not have been as good as Ajax today. Therefore, facts have proved that Van Pragg's original decision was wise.

Even if Ye Qiu left now, Van Prag could completely choose a head coach to continue Ajax's glory. With his current reputation in Ajax, no one will shake his position any longer.

"To be honest, I'm a little tired," Van Prag said with a sigh.

"As early as three years ago, when the fans kept forcing the palace, I had already considered resigning directly and leaving Ajax, but I was a little unwilling to accept it. The team's performance has been getting better and better over the years, making me a little vain. I thought that if I could leave after the team returned to the top, it would be my honor."

When he said this, Van Prager sighed with a smile. This should be his truth.

"Now, the team has won the Champions League and the Triple Crown, but who can guarantee that things won't happen again three years ago?"

No one can answer Van Prague's question.

When Van Gaal led Ajax to the Champions League final for two years and won the Champions League, who would have thought that the youth guards who were stalking Europa would decline so quickly and the players would be so far away?

Although no one can imagine the impact of the Boseman Act, it is obvious that in recent years, European football has completely differentiated strongly and weakly. Ajax was assigned to the second-rate Eredivisie. This is an inevitable fact. Faced with the poaching of the four major leagues, they are powerless, which is also a fact.

This is a trend, you can't resist, you can't avoid it

Ye Qiu has now taken this group of young stars to the top of Europe. Tomorrow, a lot of quotes will be delivered to Ajax's fax room immediately. A lot of agents contact Ajax's players privately, offering high salaries several times that of Ajax, and giving extremely generous treatment. Can Ajax give these?

The second-rate league is the second-rate league. In the Eredivisie, the signings of millions of euros are so great, but in the four major leagues, the transfers of millions of euros are just trivial, and people see transfers of over tens of millions or even tens of millions of dollars.

Money does not represent everything, but money can distinguish boundaries well.

Faced with this situation, Van Prag felt helpless and powerless to resist. He knew very well that Ajax could no longer continue his ambitions, and he was unwilling to accept the fact that Ajax could not compete for the European championship, so he had to choose to leave.

"What are your plans?" Ye Qiu thought about it, but didn't say much and asked.

Van Prager smiled, "I have already thought about it and get the title of honorary chairman. The Dutch Football Association invited me to do things. You know, in recent years, I have some connections in the European football circle and are more convenient to do things. Many Football Association officials are not as effective as me."

Ye Qiu suddenly laughed after hearing this, but he knew that this was the truth.

After laughing, Van Prag said again, "Tonight, you think carefully. Tomorrow is my last day as Chairman of Ajax. I can still make decisions on some things. You know what I mean."

Ye Qiu understood that he had a contract with Ajax, and what attitude the new chairman would take towards Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu didn't know. If he insisted that Ye Qiu finishes the contract and leaves, then Ye Qiu would have to pay a penalty to leave, and there would definitely be a very unpleasant thing at that time.

Van Prager's attitude is very obvious now. He didn't force Ye Qiu to keep him. He asked him to think about it carefully. If he wanted to leave, he would give him a resignation tomorrow. He would approve him and terminate his contract with Ye Qiu so that Ye Qiu could leave freely.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel a little grateful to the old man. If it weren't for Van Prag, he wouldn't have been today.

He really thought of leaving and parting, and he felt quite uncomfortable. After all, he had lived in Amsterdam for four years and worked with Van Prag and others for four years. He was used to many things. He suddenly had to change and would definitely not get used to it.

And Van Prag was leaving, and Ye Qiu had no reason to stay.

After the celebration ceremony at Old Trafford Stadium, the players returned to the locker room one after another, took a shower and changed clothes, prepared to return to the hotel to clean up, and then rushed back to Amsterdam overnight.

They will conduct a circumference in Amsterdam early tomorrow morning, and the Arena Stadium will hold a grand celebration of the Triple Crown, which will surely be the most crazy event in Ajax in recent years.

In the locker room, the players were excited and excited about what happened after winning the championship. Many of them received invitations from the four major league teams. Some were probably leaving, while others were still hesitating. However, whether they left or not, Ajax held a certain initiative, after all, the contract had not expired.

The most discussed thing was Ye Qiu's proposal. They all thought that this was an extremely romantic thing and also the topic of talk they would boast about in the future. Just imagine, where is the second head coach as bold as Ye Qiu in the world?

When Ye Qiu pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in, the players felt the excitement on the head coach's face, but there was also some other emotion, which made them feel a little strange.

Ye Qiu first said that he was grateful to the players. He thanked the players for their support for his work in the past few years, and was proud and proud of being able to coach such a team. Then he said that he was proud of the team being able to win the European Champions League.

Ye Qiu didn't say much, but the players noticed something strange after hearing this, because they had heard that Ye Qiu was going to leave Ajax this summer. Now the team won the Champions League again. It's natural that Ye Qiu retreated bravely. I believe many players are guessing whether Ye Qiu is going to say goodbye to them?

"I have said that, for you and for me, Ajax is one of the sites we pass through in our journey of life. When we walk through this site, we are going to head towards the next site."

"Although I can't bear to leave everyone and every one of you, sometimes life is like this. We should be brave and say goodbye with a smile, but what I want each of you to know is that no matter what happens in the future, I will always be proud of you and be proud of your achievements today.

Ye Qiu finally said goodbye, but everyone in the locker room was not surprised. It was just that everyone stood there without saying a word, and the atmosphere was a little stiff. Although they had known the result for a long time, they still couldn't accept it and felt uncomfortable when it came to this day.

Sometimes when they think about it, in the past four years, they have been used to Ye Qiu standing on the sidelines. If they suddenly change to another person in the future, they will definitely feel very uncomfortable and miss this young head coach very much.

Ye Qiu slowly walked to Sneijder. The Dutch boy took off all his clothes and had not had time to wear them, so he was walking around with a bird.

"Wesley, you are the first player I have come into contact with since I came to Ajax. You have always performed well and very well. I have always said in the past that you will become the best midfielder in Europe. Today, I still want to tell you that tonight is not your peak, you can be better."

After saying that, Ye Qiu, regardless of Sneid's nakedness, hugged the Dutch directly, and then turned to Heatinga, De Jong and others.

Then Ye Qiu walked to Hunterlaer, Abidal and others. These two players were players that Ye Qiu introduced when he was in the second team, and he was also Ye Qiu's first backbone elements in Ajax.

Although Hunteral has always been a substitute for Ibrahimovic under Ye Qiu's command, the Dutch center has many opportunities to perform. Ye Qiu has given him many opportunities, and he has always maintained a momentum of progress and performed very well.

Ibrahimovic will leave the team sooner or later, and Hunteral will be Ajax's core scorer in the next few years.

Ye Qiu also gave encouragement to Robben.

"You know, Alyang, I never worry about your ability. You have a strong sense of responsibility, but you should be smarter to learn how to protect yourself on the court, and you will become the best and top star in the world."

After hearing this, Robben was deeply moved.

You know, three years ago, he was just a boy who couldn't even play in the DUFL. Ye Qiu came to the door personally to bring him to Ajax and gave him trust, allowing him to play directly in the Dutch Eredivisie. No matter at any time, Ye Qiu always entrusted him with important tasks, which made Robben very grateful to the head coach.

But before Ye Qiu could speak, he went to Ibrahimovic.

"Zlatan, you are a very motivated person. I have always felt that you will be the best Sagittarius in the world. I have always been proud of you and proud of you. But sometimes, you are prone to being obsessed with the past and lack trust in anyone and everything. You will be very resistant to integrating into a new environment. This is your biggest shortcoming."

Ibrahimovic changed a lot under Ye Qiu's command, but some things that Ye Qiu could not change, that is, what his agent Haas Borg did to him back then, the harm he brought to him, and the shadow left behind.

Ye Qiu knew very well that the reason why Ibrahimovic in his previous life became Lubrut Lu Fengxian, who many fans disliked, was actually the deepest reason behind it. His childhood experience and Haas Borg's betrayal made him not believe in this society at all, and lacks security and trust in everyone and everything.

"Head..." Ibrahimovic suddenly felt sore in his nose and wanted to say something because he knew that only Ye Qiu knew him.

"Don't say, Zlatan, tonight, you are the European champion, you must always remember that you are the European champion, you are an adult, don't be as cowardly as a child, and go out of the past bravely and strongly. I believe that that will make you stronger and more invincible."

After a pause, Ye Qiu said again: "Even if you meet me on the court in the future and defeat me, I will be proud of you and be proud of you, Zlatan."

After hearing this, Ibrahimovic turned his head and twitched his shoulders slightly, making people feel that he should be crying. The tall and powerful Swedish center has now become a child who doesn't want to cry and let others see it.

Ye Qiu walked to Yaya Toure, Mascherano and others one after another. He blessed his players one by one, gave them some advice to help them improve their shortcomings.

For example, for Yaya Toure, Ye Qiu thinks he will become one of the best midfielders in Europe, but the premise is to make himself no longer sticky to the ball and have better ability to touch the ball with one kick. For Mascherano, Ye Qiu thinks he will become the best and best midfielder in Argentina after Redondo.

Ye Qiu also gave some sincere opinions to these young players, believing that the most important thing for them to accumulate game experience and get sufficient training opportunities. Only by training their strong strength can they gain a steady foothold in the four major leagues without worrying about competition

Everyone knows that from beginning to end, every player of this Ajax was promoted and introduced by Ye Qiu. If this is a family, then Ye Qiu is the parent and the backbone of the family. He knows everyone here well and knows it clearly.

All Ajax players also listened to Ye Qiu's opinions. As for whether to accept it or not, it is not something Ye Qiu can control.

At the end of the sudden farewell party after winning the Champions League, Ye Qiu said that he would not participate in tomorrow's city parade and celebration ceremony, but he invited everyone in the team to attend his upcoming wedding, which was located in his hometown of Xiamen.

All the players stood there silently and listened and watched, they believed that this was probably the last time they saw Ye Qiu in the locker room, and this was also the last time Ye Qiu was talking to them as their head coach.

They may be opponents if they meet on the court in the future

But, from the day they decided to enter professional football and become professional players and professional coaches, have they already been mentally prepared for such a parting today?
