Yes, Tong Yi has already initialed a contract with Campbell and Matic. As long as Campbell and Matic pass the physical examination, they can officially become a member of Munich 1860.
Bruns was full of complaints about initialing these two players.
It's not that Bruns looks down on these two players, but their salaries are too high.
The 21-year-old Serbian's weekly salary actually reaches 12 pounds, while Campbell's weekly salary reaches 25 pounds. Converted into euros, the young Serbian's annual salary will be close to 750,000 euros, and Campbell's youth is even closer to terrifying.
of 1.6 million euros.
This is simply chaos!
Bruns stared at Tong Yi and roared angrily, "Do you know what the average salary of players in our club is? Do you know that doing this will break the current salary structure of our club? Do you know?
If you do this, the old players in our club will be very dissatisfied..."
Bruns seemed to have seen the riots caused by the old players wanting to raise their salaries and the club becoming a mess.
Young, this Chinese is still young.
Tong Yi knew what Bruns was worried about, and he said calmly, "Isn't Campbell worth 1.6 million euros?"
Bruns' breath was stagnant, and the words in his mouth were choked.
He pondered for a moment and said, "As a world-class central defender, Campbell's annual salary of 1.6 million euros is not an exaggeration. But he is old now, already 34 years old..."
Yes, Bruns thinks the older Campbell isn't worth the price.
Tong Yi turned to look at Bruns and asked, "Do you know what his weekly salary is in Portsmouth?"
Bruns asked "How much?"
Tong Yi said, "When he moved to Portsmouth on a free transfer in 2006, his weekly salary was 50,000 pounds. Now three years have passed, and based on the increase in his weekly salary, it should now be around 70,000 pounds."
Bruns took a breath. He knew that the salary level in the Premier League was relatively high, but he did not expect it to be so high.
Portsmouth is just a team in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League!
Campbell is just a 34-year-old veteran.
The Premier League is too rich.
The Premier League is too crazy.
Bruns kept shaking his head, indicating that he couldn't accept it.
Tong Yi continued to ask, "Then do you know what the weekly salary offered by Notts County in the English League Two is for him?"
In Bruns' view, Notts County should not offer Campbell too high a salary. After all, Notts County is only a fourth-tier team in England, and the salary structure of the fourth-tier league should be very low.
However, when Tong Yi asked this question, there must be some fraud involved.
He looked up at Tong Yi and asked, "Isn't it also tens of thousands of pounds?"
After asking this question, Bruns himself felt a little ridiculous. A team from the fourth tier league can offer a weekly salary of tens of thousands of pounds. ?
Bruns shook his head slightly, but his eyes were fixed on Tong Yi.
Tong Yi immediately shook his head and said, "Of course this is impossible."
Hearing what Tong Yi said, Bruns instantly breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, it seemed that England's fourth-tier league was not crazy yet.
Tong Yi continued, "The weekly salary offered to him by Notts County is 7,000 pounds."
Bruns immediately became anxious and immediately yelled, "Then why did you give him a weekly salary of 260,000 pounds? Are you crazy? Our Munich 1860 is in the second tier."
Bruns even suspected that the Chinese man in front of him had received a kickback.
I heard that the Chinese are as good at calculation and economics as the Jews.
Tong Yi chuckled and said, "Notts County indeed offered Campbell a weekly salary of 7,000 pounds, but Notts County offered him an 'ambassador' contract with a weekly salary of 330,000 pounds."
£330,000-a-week "ambassador" contract?
He stared at Tong Yi with his eyes wide open, and exclaimed, "You mean that the weekly salary offered to Campbell by Notts County is actually 40,000 pounds?"
Tong Yi nodded slightly.
Bruns was stunned!
A fourth-tier team can actually offer a contract with a weekly salary of 40,000 pounds?
This world is too crazy!
Until now, he still doesn't believe it.
Suddenly, Bruns discovered something was wrong, and he said urgently, "No! This is wrong! It's completely wrong!"
Tong Yi frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
Bruns immediately said, "You just said that Campbell's weekly salary at Portsmouth is 70,000 pounds, so why would you go to Notts County, which is still in the English League Two, and give him 40,000 pounds a week? This is inappropriate.
Common sense!”
Bruns stared at Tong Yi with sharp eyes.
Tong Yi nodded, "This does seem a little wrong. But, I know the reason behind it."
Bruns stared at Tong Yi with confusion on his face, "What's the reason?"
Tong Yi said, "Portsmouth has a financial crisis and has not paid salaries for a long time. As far as I know, Portsmouth has already owed Campbell nearly 2 million pounds in salary. Such a team, if it were you
, will you stay?"
Bruns took a deep breath and was shocked.
The financial situation in Portsmouth is too bad. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stay.
Now he understood somewhat why Campbell left Portsmouth for Notts County.
In fact, what Tong Yi also knows is that in 2006, Kan
Bell signed a two-year contract when he joined Portsmouth, and the contract expired last year. According to unreliable sources, Campbell's weekly salary extension with Portsmouth last year was 30,000 pounds.
Of course, Portsmouth's wage arrears still exist.
Now that Notts County is offering him a weekly salary of 40,000 pounds, he is naturally willing to go.
Moreover, Notts County offered him a four-plus-one five-year contract, which is equivalent to a pension contract.
Tong Yi looked at Bruns, smiled and said, "Now do you still think we made a loss by signing him with a weekly salary of 250,000 pounds?"
Bruns shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly.
Compared to £40,000, their Munich 1860 price of £250,000 is really cheap.
Bruns stared at Tong Yi and said, "However, the weekly salary of 250,000 pounds is a huge burden for us at Munich 1860."
Yes, Munich 1860's current financial situation is very bad and it cannot afford it.
Moreover, the current maximum salary of Munich 1860 is only about 1 million euros. Now that you have raised the maximum salary so much at once, what will the other players of Munich 1860 think? Will they collectively ask for a salary increase?
Bruns still feels that Tong Yi’s introduction of Campbell was too hasty.
Tong Yi shook his head lightly and said, "If you want to upgrade, you have to pay."
Bruns stared at Tong Yi dumbfounded, his heart filled with disbelief.
The Chinese man in front of me actually said that he wanted to lead the team to upgrade?
He thinks Tong Yi is crazy!
In the current situation of Munich 1860, it would be good to avoid relegation, and they are still thinking about promotion. Tong Yi is really delusional. At the same time, he is also full of worries about the team's prospects.
He stared at Tong Yi worriedly and said, "Don't be too ambitious. Munich 1860 can't stand your troubles."
Tong Yi can understand that Bruns has no confidence in himself. However, he does not agree with it.
He stared at Bruns closely and said, "Leading the team to the Bundesliga may seem unrealistic to you, but this is my goal. Everything I do now is to achieve this goal."
Bruns could see that Tong Yi was very serious and serious, and he believed that this was Tong Yi's goal. However, he was not optimistic about Tong Yi.
However, Bruns still said, "It's a good thing to have goals and ideals, but you have to be clear about our team's current financial situation."
After speaking, Bruns patted Tong Yi on the shoulder.
Tong Yi could feel Bruns' deep feelings for Munich 1860, and he did not want to see Munich 1860 in a worse situation.
Tong Yi solemnly said, "Don't worry, I won't mess around. This salary is definitely for our team." The only one!"
Bruns actually felt that Tong Yi was a bit messy, but he felt that Tong Yi was really making progress towards the goal he set. Although he did not believe that Tong Yi could lead the team to upgrade, he still chose to support
Tong Yi.
He sighed and said, "I hope Campbell's condition is worthy of this salary."
Tong Yi has no doubts about this.
Later Tong Yi knew that Campbell had also played for Arsenal and Newcastle United, and had also played in some games. Later, it was only due to conflicts with Notts County and injuries at Newcastle United that his strength was reduced.
It declined rapidly and was retired in 2012.
If Campbell doesn't waste half a season and stays healthy, Tong Yi thinks there will be no problem for him to play for another two or three seasons.
Tong Yi firmly believed this, which is why he spent such a high price to introduce Campbell.
More importantly, Tong Yi hopes that Campbell can help Senderos regain his confidence.
Tong Yi said, "Don't worry, he won't let us down."
Tong Yi has said this, and Bruns has nothing to say.
Bruns looked at the foggy sky outside the window, frowned slightly and said, "The weather in London is really terrible. I hope our sky in Munich 1860 will be clearer."
Tong Yi shrugged slightly and said nothing.
At this time, a tall, bald man wearing a black casual suit walked into the "South Bank Cafe".
While he was looking around, Tong Yi immediately stood up and stretched out his hand to signal, "Felipe, here!"
Bruns immediately turned his head and looked over. What appeared in front of him was Felipe Senderos, the Swiss center back of the Premier League Arsenal team.
Bruns was not surprised at all by this, because he knew that they appeared at the "South Bank Cafe" today just for the Swiss central defender.
Senderos saw Tong Yi and immediately came over.
Seeing Senderos approaching, Tong Yi immediately stretched out his right hand and said cordially, "Hello, Felipe, I am Tong Yi, the head coach of Munich 1860. You can also call me David."
Senderos also stretched out his right hand to hold Tong Yi's right hand and said, "Hello, coach David, I am Senderos."
After the three met, they exchanged pleasantries.
After the pleasantries, Tong Yi went straight to the point and said, "Felipe, you should know the reason for my visit. I am very optimistic about you and want to invite you to join our Munich 1860."
Tong Yi is really very optimistic about Senderos. This guy is very talented. Unfortunately, injuries and psychological shock defeated him, making his career go from high to low. Tong Yi feels very sorry for Senderos.
