()Chelsea is not the center of football after all.
Although it is very lively in the summer.
However, Chelsea's current performance is only ranked second in the Premier League. Although the Champions League group has appeared, neither Manchester United nor Arsenal, currently participating in the Champions League, have broken through from the group stage.
Among them, Arsenal's performance is surprising.
Their performance in the Champions League started very poorly, with one draw and two losses in the first three rounds. At that time, everyone thought that Arsenal had no chance of appearing in the group stage. But Arsenal suddenly became energetic.
First, they defeated Dynamo Kyiv 1-0 at home, and then swept Inter Milan 5-1 away from home.
It shocked the entire European football world.
Although Inter Milan has been ridiculed as a "star black hole" in recent years, it is still very rare for someone to score five goals at their home court. Henry, who is omnipotent in the Premier League, also performed extremely well in this game.
Two goals, two assists, directly destroyed Inter Milan.
Back at home, they defeated Lokomotiv Moscow 2-0 and got a qualifying spot.
Moreover, in the Premier League, Arsenal has not lost a game since the beginning of the season.
Such a strong performance has attracted the attention of the British football world.
In the eyes of the media, Chelsea's current performance is not much better. Chelsea's performance in the past few seasons has been good. After spending so much money in the summer, they have not found any absolute dominance in the Premier League.
Therefore, Chelsea went from being a favorite at the beginning to being treated like a strong Premier League team.
Arsenal received the most praise.
Because they not only have good grades.
The important thing is that their mercury-like offense has all the fans intoxicated. Their offensive football can be said to be the most beautiful style of play in European football.
And when all the media were praising Arsenal's beautiful football, huge news suddenly broke.
News about Arsenal.
The Sun was the first to reveal the news.
Of course, among the English tabloids, if The Sun says it is second, no newspaper would dare to say it is first. Although they spread a lot of rumors, they are also very quick to get a lot of inside information.
And it's steady and ruthless.
“Where will Ashley Cole’s next home be?”
"The Sun" stated that Arsenal's main left-back Ashley Cole and the Arsenal club ended up breaking up due to disagreements when negotiating a new contract.
Ashley Cole has already told the club that if the contract is not renewed on his own terms, he will leave Arsenal at the end of this season.
When this news came out, it immediately surprised many people.
Real? Fake?
Everyone is very curious.
Ashley Cole is a player who came out of the Arsenal youth academy. Among the current Arsenal main lineup, Ashley Cole is the only star of the youth academy.
This time The Sun did not spread rumors.
From October to December, Ashley Cole and Arsenal held several negotiations. However, the two sides did not reach a consensus, but instead became very unhappy.
Although it cannot be said that the talks have completely collapsed, it is almost the same.
David Dunn had promised Ashley Cole before that he was willing to give Ashley Cole a weekly salary of 55,000 pounds in the next contract extension. This weekly salary is not low.
If Abramovich hadn't taken over Chelsea this time and raised the salaries of some players, otherwise the weekly salary of 55,000 pounds would be a high salary in the Premier League.
Just like Arsenal.
Henry, the top player, currently earns only a weekly salary of 60,000 pounds.
Now Ashley Cole demands fifty-five thousand pounds. For Arsenal, this is already a very high salary. But from Ashley Cole's perspective, fifty-five thousand pounds is nothing at all.
many.
Left backs are relatively rare in current European football.
This is even more true in the Premier League.
Since Ashley Cole entered Arsenal's first team and replaced Sylvinho as the main left back, he has always been the strongest left back in the Premier League.
Some people have even begun to comment that Ashley Cole is the top three left backs in the world.
young.
But he has firmly occupied the main position of the England national team.
Fifty-five thousand pounds?
not much.
Terry, who is still a substitute for the England national team, signed a new contract in the summer with a weekly salary of 60,000 pounds. And there are recent rumors that Abramovich admires Terry, a Chelsea born and bred player.
Prepare to give Terry a second raise.
Some people even say that Terry's salary will reach the level of 80,000 pounds this time around.
Of course, if Chelsea are an upstart, there is no comparison.
Then look at the two centre-backs of the current England national team. After Campbell came to Arsenal from Tottenham, his weekly salary was 100,000 pounds, which broke the world football record at the time.
One hundred thousand pounds.
This certainly makes Ashley Cole envious.
fine.
Campbell is a free transfer, so the high salary is understandable.
But look at Ferdinand, who is also young. His weekly salary is now 70,000 pounds.
When compared horizontally, Ashley Cole is really unconvinced.
But Ashley Cole is not the kind of player who is greedy for money. David Dunn once promised Ashley Cole that he was willing to give him fifty-five thousand pounds. Therefore, Ashley Cole asked for it.
Fifty-five thousand pounds.
But David Dunn disagrees.
David Dunn said he would give Ashley Cole £55,000.
But not now.
Ashley Cole's contract now has three years left. David Dunn hopes to negotiate the contract after one year or two. Then he will be given a contract of 55,000 pounds.
Of course, according to the past, David Dunn gave it to him.
At worst, Arsenal's players' salaries have been raised, so it's not a big deal.
But not now.
Now Arsenal is also encountering some financial difficulties. Because the new stadium that Arsenal invested in is still under construction. Although it has not yet encountered a financial crisis, Arsenal is still walking a tightrope.
If you don't pay attention, the club will go bankrupt before their stadium is built.
In order to complete the new stadium, David Dunn really wanted to spend every penny in half.
At this time, David Dunn will never agree to give Ashley Cole a salary increase. Even if the salary is increased, it can only be increased to 50,000 pounds at most. According to David Dunn, that means he is willing to give Ashley Cole a salary increase.
.Cole’s is about 45,000 pounds.
Fifty-five thousand pounds.
It doesn't seem like much. But the chain reaction is not simple. Ashley Cole only has 55,000 pounds, so what about Pires and Ljungberg, whose contributions are no worse than him?
Pires and Ljungberg's current salary is only 40,000 pounds.
A defender is worth fifty-five thousand pounds. They should be worth sixty thousand pounds anyway.
Of course if they are £60,000, what about Arsenal's captain Vieira and their number one star Thierry Henry?
Even if I don't give you 70,000 yuan, 80,000 yuan won't be justified.
Of course, players like Lauren, Edu, and Gilbert don't need to be too high. But they can't be much lower than Ashley Cole. It should be around 50,000 pounds anyway.
If this continues, Arsenal Club's expenditure will not be tens of thousands.
After one season, that's several million pounds, plus taxes and so on. The expenditure for one season will increase by tens of millions of pounds.
At a time when Arsenal are tightening their finances for a new stadium, how could David Dunn agree to such conditions?
David Dunn's idea is simple.
drag.
He just wants to delay.
Put it off for a year and a half. Anyway, the longer it is delayed, the more money Arsenal will be able to save.
This is what David Dunn thinks.
The most important thing is that Ashley Cole came from the Arsenal youth academy. In English football, such players are all our own players and their loyalty is very high.
David Dunn is very relieved.
It's a pity that he forgot.
Loyalty sometimes means nothing.
Ashley Cole is full of resentment now.
He believed that David Dunn had lied to him. He had clearly promised to give him a weekly salary of fifty-five thousand pounds, but now he was starting to regret it.
fraud.
No matter how I think about it, I get very angry.
In addition, Ashley Cole's agent Barnett is always igniting the situation, making Ashley Cole more and more disappointed with Arsenal's management.
After watching the news in "The Sun", Su Yun called Zahavi.
"Hey Pini. Could this be your handiwork?"
Su Yun smiled and talked to Zahavi.
Zahavi laughed.
"Sue, I'm a good person."
Zahavi's words made Su Yun almost vomit. He was able to sell Ferdinand, who was trained in West Ham United's youth academy, to Leeds United, and also let Ferdinand jump from Leeds United to his arch-rival Manchester United.
This kind of bastard who turns his hands into clouds and rain, dares to say that he is a good person.
"Pini, don't be ridiculous. I still hope to be able to coach Ashley Cole. I'm waiting for your good news."
Zahavi smiled softly.
Zahavi is someone who will stick to his target and refuse to let go.
He has been able to reach this point because he has a very accurate eye for people. And once he sees his opponent's loopholes, he will pursue them fiercely and not give them any chance to breathe.
That's what Zahavi is about.
He likes to challenge difficult things.
Ashley Cole, this is Zahavi's goal. He wants to complete a sensational transfer in English football.
Poach their most popular youth player from Arsenal.
And let him come to the local team Chelsea.
Among this nouveau riche that everyone despises, let everyone see their own strength.
"Su, don't be anxious. Now is the beginning, and soon their negotiations will collapse. Look out for what happens next. Look at how I made Ashley Cole change from a hero to Arsenal fans to an Arsenal fan.
People yell and beat the rats crossing the street."
When he said this, Su Yun's hair stood on end.
The power of an agent.
The power of a super agent.
Not only is it reflected in the strength of the players they control, they also have deep relationships with many media. They are even more powerful than the head coach in this regard.
This is their hidden power.
Pini Zahavi.
Don't ever conflict with him in the future, this guy is too fierce.
"Pini, I'm waiting for your good news."
"Don't worry, Su. As long as your boss prepares enough money for you, he can become your player next summer."
Zahavi gave a very confident guarantee.
After putting down the phone, Zahavi smiled and said: "Mr. Barnett, you saw it. The person who just called was Coach Su Yun. He is very hungry for Ashley Cole. As long as Ashley
When Cole comes to Chelsea, his weekly salary of 80,000 pounds is certain, not to mention the starting position."
