spn The head coaches of the Italian Football League are different from the head coaches of the Premier League. They are only responsible for the training and competition of the first team. They only have the right to advise on signing players. The team general manager is actually in charge.
The head coach of the Premier League is often also the team manager. When you see the player you like, it is very simple to sign a contract.
The new Juventus club sports manager Secco looked at a player profile and said, "Li Yu, 181m, 100kg!"
"Coming from China, without even one professional league experience or systematic youth training record, you used to train alone?"
“All physical indicators are abnormally high!”[
Although Seko was experienced, he was confused by this information. He looked at Deschamps sitting opposite and said: "Didier, are you sure the first team needs a player like this now, or that this player information is true?"
of?"
Deshang was also surprised when he first saw it, especially Li Yu's height and weight. He repeatedly communicated with the testers to confirm, and even suspected that there was something wrong with the testing equipment.
Finally, I had to admit that Li Yu, whose body shape and muscle-to-fat ratio were in line with those of a professional player, was seriously overweight. He was simply a freak.
After quickly sorting out his thoughts, Deschamps replied: "Seco! If you look at the actual test data and the video of his team's test match later, this boy from the East, even though his football resume is a blank slate.
, we should give him such a chance, please trust my judgment."
"Could his weight be caused by some hidden disease?"
Seko was obviously a little shaken and raised his question again.
"I consulted the team's medical consultant about this matter, and he said that Li Yu is simply an 'Iron Man'. The reason why he weighs so much is because the density of his bones is twice that of a normal person, and the strength and flexibility of his muscles and ligaments are much higher.
Far more than normal, which means we will have a player who is basically injury-free!"
Deschamps replied.
"Okay! Didier, you convinced me. Give him a top youth contract!"
Seko said seriously.
"No, it should be a professional contract, so that we can better own him!"
Deschamps shook his head and stated the purpose of his trip.
"Okay, the minimum first-team substitute contract, you can decide the details yourself!"
Secco actually didn't want to sign Li Yu, but he had to give face to the new head coach, so he immediately stated his bottom line.
...
During the waiting period, Li Yu, who was already illegal, lived in a separate room arranged at the Vinovo training base. The strange thing was that he was not arranged to train with the youth team. Obviously he could not go to the first team, so he had to do it by himself every day.
With necessary experience training, I rarely go out.
This made Li Yu, who had an active personality who had just arrived in Italy, very uncomfortable. Through simple contact with the club staff, he found that few ordinary Italians could speak English, and the same was true for the staff at the base. This was much worse than what he had encountered in France.
The problem is still serious and makes his life very difficult. He often needs to gesture in English for a long time before the other party understands his intention.
You can see the training ground surrounded by mountains from the entrance, and there are occasional small clouds floating in the blue sky. Li Yu's heart has never been so peaceful. This is Vinovo, a football club that is far away from the noise of the city and completely silent.
world.
The phone in 'Xiao''s room rang. Li Yu knew what the call meant at this moment. He picked up the phone and tried to make his tone less excited, and said calmly in English: "Hello, I am Li Yu!" [
As Li Yu expected, Deshang's voice sounded over the phone, "Yu! Come to my office. Since you don't have an agent, I have to discuss the signing with you in person!"
"Okay sir, I'll be there right away."
When he came to the office, Deshang motioned for Li Yu to sit in front of him and said straightforwardly: "General trial training takes about 20 days, but you proved yourself with one day's performance. I don't know why you are so different from last time.
Big change, but now we can discuss your contract!"
"Sir, can I sign a contract without an agent?"
Li Yu understood some of the signing process and asked in a low voice.
"Yu! I have communicated with my agent Wirtz. He can act as your temporary agent. Of course, the signing fee this time will be deducted from your future salary. This is a player contract, and there is still one year left.
Temporary agent contract. Based on your current resume, I think this is the most satisfactory contract. Of course, if you are worried, you can also find other agents to negotiate contracts with me."
"Sir, I believe in you! You gave me this opportunity."
Li Yu did not hesitate and signed his Chinese name on the two documents.
From this moment on, Li Yu became a member of this century-old club, and it was also his first professional player contract: a period of one year, a weekly salary of 3,000 euros, no salary increase clauses, and no bonuses for goals and assists, only 500 euros each.
Euro appearance and winning bonuses.
This contract is not a good one, and it is only signed for one year. The purpose of trial is obvious. But for Li Yu, who is not well-known, the starting point is already very high. You must know that many young players sign contracts on a weekly basis, among which the talents are good.
For players, the formal youth contract is only a long-term contract with a weekly salary of about 100 euros, with no guarantee at all. Li Yu’s bonus awards are smaller, but as long as he can prove his ability and get a chance to play, he will receive an additional 1,000 euros in every game.
After all, Juventus has basically no problem winning in the second division.
"Then I can call you boss from now on?"
Li Yu said excitedly.
"You should call me sir. I'm not a boss. That's what the Premier League calls me."
Deschamps was also in a good mood and chatted with Li Yu casually, "I have to remind you that when you play football and live in Italy, you have to study Italian seriously from now on. During the future games, you will live in the same room with your teammates.
room.”
"Sir, I have experienced this in the past few days! Listen to what you said, now that I have signed the contract, why do I feel that the housing treatment is not as good as before?"
Li Yu nodded to indicate that he understood, but immediately returned to his usual rough lines and spoke in a blocked voice.
"Young man, did you pretend to be very good before? How did I find out now that you are still a prick? Listen, it was during the visiting team's game. You usually train and live in Turin, and the club will rent it for you.
An apartment with a free Fiat car for transportation.”
Deshang admired Li Yu's character and said half-jokingly.
"Haha, forget about the car! In our country, I'm not old enough to take a driver's license yet! Sir, when can I practice with the first team?"
"The team is now reserving physical fitness. There should be no problem with your physical fitness after seeing your report. I will give you two days to make arrangements. You can return to Turin first and go to the apartment to arrange your life. See you at the base in two days, and I will meet you then.
To formally introduce your joining, you can set off now!"
After Deschamps finished speaking, he began to pack up the documents on his desk.
"Okay, sir! I can't wait, so I'll go back to Turin first! By the way, sir, we are an agent and can also be called fellow brothers in China!" [
Li Yu saw that Deshang Bai Zhi's face was a little red, obviously holding back his anger. He got up and left the office quickly, returned to his temporary room to pack his bags, and prepared to go to Turin to welcome his football life.
