When the meeting place was decided, Murray was already in London. So it was very easy for the two parties to meet.
Although the media here in London is very developed and there are many reporters, neither of them did much to hide it. Su Yun was too famous and no reporters were interested. Murray came to London purely because of personal matters, and meeting Su Yun was just a casual visit.
.
"Mr. Murray, first meeting."
Su Yun is very polite.
Su Yun is very eager to go to Sunderland, so he is unwilling to offend his future boss.
"This is not the first time I have met Coach Su. You defeated Sunderland twice at the Stadium of Light, and I was there both times."
Su Yun shrugged.
"Come on, Coach Su, let me introduce you. This is Charlie Carden, the sports director of our club."
"Hello, Mr. Carden."
Charlie Carden looks very young. Su Yun has always thought that he is a very young head coach in football, but the sports director of Sunderland Club is also very young. He looks like he is only about forty years old.
"Coach Su, hello."
Charlie Carden had no expression and shook hands with Su Yun very seriously.
Kaden is dissatisfied with Murray's approach. There are nearly ten games left in the club, and the league has not yet ended. It is already considering changing the coach. It is unjustifiable. Of course, Kaden does not think that Peter will be the best in the remaining games.
Reed can turn the tide.
After all, the recent competition results are really poor.
The gap with the third place from the bottom has reached seven points. The gap with the fourth place from the bottom is nine points. It is almost impossible to jump out of the relegation zone.
But even so, Peter Reed should not be treated like this.
After all, Peter Reid led Sunderland to the Premier League last season. At that time, Sunderland was a relegation team in League One, and the promotion was all due to Peter Reid. Peter Reid is definitely Sunderland.
Delan's meritorious coach.
Just firing him like that is too much.
But he would not show such dissatisfaction. That's why his expression was so serious. Kaden just wanted to hide his dissatisfaction.
"He is Zheng Yuan, who graduated with a master's degree from London Business School this year."
After the two sides made their introductions, they sat down and started formal negotiations.
"Coach Su, you understand what we mean. You should also understand the current situation of our club. We are expected to play in League One next season. We admire Coach Su's achievements at Dagenham. In one and a half years, Dagenham
Genham are about to be promoted from the African League to the English League Two. And their results in the League Cup and FA Cup are also quite good. So we would like to invite you to be our head coach of Sunderland next season."
Murray, a former kitchen and bathroom tycoon, speaks slowly.
And he doesn't speak loudly. As a billionaire, he doesn't feel aggressive or domineering at all.
"Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for your appreciation."
Su Yun thanked Murray. "Mr. Murray, it is a great honor for me to be the head coach of Sunderland. Sunderland has a long history and brilliant achievements."
Listening to Su Yun complimenting Sunderland, Charlie Carden next to him couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Of course.
You are a head coach in the English League Three, and you come from China, a football desert. It must be a great honor to have a club like Sunderland. Even before you became the head coach, you started complimenting the new club.
hypocritical!
This was Charlie Carden's idea.
"But I still want to ask Mr Murray what rights the club can give me if I become Sunderland manager."
Su Yun really didn't know that when he was in China.
At that time, if an A-level club invited Su Yun, Su Yun would at most talk about his own thoughts. He would not touch on the issue of his own power, because he only needed to be the head coach and lead the team in games.
But after arriving in England, especially after becoming the head coach of Dagenham, Su Yun understood the rights of the English head coach.
And at Dagenham, Su Yun completely blocked the sky with one hand. Although he couldn't do that at Sunderland, Su Yun didn't want to have any restrictions.
"I will abide by the rules of English football."
Murray's answer is simple.
But Su Yun is very happy because he has received a satisfactory answer. The head coach has great power in England. Needless to say, the team's training and competition, even the club's transfer are under the control of the head coach.
"Thanks."
Su Yun didn't have many demands for salary or anything else. Su Yun never cared much about money because he had a good brother. Su Yun had no concept of money since he was a child, and in Su Yun's view, talking about money was always a bit hurtful.
emotion.
Or rather a little embarrassed.
Let Zheng Yuan negotiate.
"Mr. Murray, I am very willing to coach at Sunderland."
At this point, Su Yun should not be vague at all in his statement.
"Okay, Coach Su. As for the contract issue, Charlie will talk to you on behalf of the club."
........."Brother Su, it's settled."
It is not convenient for Su Yun to discuss the contract issue. After all, Su Yun will be a coach for a club in the future, and it would be too embarrassing to worry about the contract issue. That's why the role of agent exists.
In fact, the so-called agents are not just because they are professional.
Many times, the parties concerned are difficult to talk to, so they express their thoughts through their agents. And even if the agent and the club fall out, there is still room for the parties to change.
Su Yun picked up the contract and read the first page, then put it down. Su Yun was too tired to read the messy code inside.
"Xiao Zheng, pick out the key points."
Zheng Yuan nodded.
"According to your opinions and Sunderland's ideas, the contract is for three years, with a weekly salary of two thousand pounds. And the club recognizes your authority as the head coach. Of course, Sunderland also has conditions. If you cannot lead the team in the first year
If the club upgrades, they have the right to terminate the contract."
Su Yun listened and asked some questions.
Overall, Su Yun was quite satisfied.
"By the way, Brother Su. When I was discussing the contract today, Kaden casually mentioned the club's summer actions. According to Kaden, the board of directors will fully support you this summer. There may be a lot of transfer fees."
"real?"
"Yeah. During the negotiation, Kaden casually said that you were lucky and caught up with the good times. I asked more questions and found out."
Su Yun was very happy.
Sunderland's current situation is that they have good strength, but they also need to make some personnel additions. Especially when they arrive at a new club, a certain change of blood is also a way to increase their authority.
"No one outside will know about this."
Su Yun is not willing to let everyone know before the end of the season. Especially now is the critical moment for Dagenham to enter the English League Two, and he is even more unwilling to do so. If it affects Dagenham's results, then I am really sorry.
.
"Don't worry, Brother Su. Sunderland doesn't want this news to get out now."
Zheng Yuan was very happy.
Although Su Yun's weekly salary of two thousand pounds was very little money for Zheng Yuan. But Zheng Yuan was not discouraged at all. Zheng Yuan was waiting for the day when Su Yun's weekly salary could exceed tens of thousands of pounds.
"Brother Su, if you become the head coach of Sunderland, then you will really be a leader in Chinese football."
Su Yun shook his head.
"Still early?"
Although the current Chinese football world agrees with the development of European football, it does not really feel how powerful European football is. Although Su Yun wants to coach Sunderland, Sunderland next season will only be a League One club.
I'm afraid it's not important enough in the eyes of Chinese football people.
Especially in Chinese football where seniority is very serious, Su Yun, as a junior, is even less likely to become the leader of Chinese football. Those players of the Chinese national team are definitely more attractive than Su Yun.
"It's not too early. Brother Su, as long as you continue step by step, you will be a representative figure of Chinese football in less than three years."
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
Su Yun was also very excited when hearing Zheng Yuan's words.
