In fact, judging from the information Zhang Sheng learned, Red Bull Salzburg is not just as simple as its superficial results.
This team is a veteran team in Austria, and it had a glorious history of reaching the UEFA Cup finals, the predecessor of the Europa League, in 1994, but lost to Inter Milan. But its real rise came from the entry of Red Bull Group.
After the Lord.
With the full support of the Red Bull Group, the team began to recruit talents. Former German national football team captain Lothar Matthäus and Italian gold medal coach Giovanni Trapattoni served as head coaches.
It has successively purchased many famous players who have participated in the Bundesliga, including former Bayern Munich players Thomas Link, Alexander Ziegler, Niko Kovac and former Czech national football team striker Vladislav Lokwenc.
At the same time, they are also paying close attention to the Asian market. In 2007, they purchased two Japanese generals-Miyamoto Tsuneyasu and Sandu Zhu.
And now there is a player in the team who is very familiar to Chinese fans - the current foreign aid of Guangzhou Evergrande, Alan.
The reason why Red Bull Salzburg is so closely connected with German football is also related to its geographical location. Although the team is located in Austria, Salzburg is only an hour's drive from the German state of Bagolia.
, so both the customs and economic activities are deeply influenced by Germany. It is inevitable that Red Bull Salzburg is also inextricably linked to German football.
After the Red Bull Group acquired Leipzig, the two teams became even more interoperable. This is why Rangnick said that Qin Minghao and Li Yun could go to Red Bull Salzburg to play first, because Rangnick was also the player.
Only the athletic director of the team.
Faced with Rangnick's proposal, Zhang Sheng also made his intentions clear: "I can agree to go to Red Bull Salzburg. But the playing time of the two of them must be guaranteed."
Rangnick shook his head and said: "I can only guarantee the number of games they will play, but I cannot guarantee the specific game time. After all, Salzburg is a team that needs to maintain their dominance, and they are very important to their results.
"
Zhang Sheng thought for a moment and said: "I can understand this, but I hope Salzburg will not ask them as young players. Instead, treat them as main players."
Rangnick has no objection to this: "This is no problem. As long as they are in good condition and play the main force and the core, it is no problem, because they have proven themselves in the World Youth Championship. However, we will clearly require it in the contract. Once Leipzig
If the Red Bulls are promoted to the Bundesliga 2, the two of them will have to transfer there."
Zhang Sheng agrees with this. After all, the level of the Bundesliga 2 is not necessarily lower than that of the Austrian League. However, Zhang Sheng must have more requirements for the transfer fee: "Then the transfer fee cannot be what you are offering now.
"In fact, Zhang Sheng understands Rangnick's idea of introducing two players very well. Qin Minghao and Li Yun are not only strong in their abilities, but the Chinese market behind them is what the Red Bull Group behind RB Leipzig values.
It's just that the excellent performance of the Long Teng double stars in the World Youth Championship disrupted the Red Bulls' plan. The Red Bulls, who originally planned to wait for the team to enter the Bundesliga 2 before acquiring the two players, had to take action in advance.
What makes Rangnick embarrassed is that it was Leipzig Red Bull who signed the cooperation contract with Longteng Club, not Salzburg Red Bull, so the corresponding transfer preferential terms will not be valid. This is why Zhang Sheng raised objections to the transfer offer.
The reason. Because before this, the offer offered by Leipzig Red Bull was 100 euros per person, plus 20% of the secondary transfer share. Obviously they also knew that these two promising stars would have higher goals.
Rangnick asked: "So, what is your price?"
Zhang Sheng expressed his thoughts directly: "We don't have to discuss the value, but if they transfer and leave Leipzig Red Bull, we need 50% of the secondary transfer share."
Rangnick immediately refused: "That's impossible. We can increase the value appropriately, but the share of the second transfer cannot exceed 20%."
Of course Zhang Sheng has his own ideas: "We definitely can't get involved in the transfer between Red Bull Salzburg and Red Bull Leipzig. Then the share of the second transfer cannot be set too low. In this way, we can reduce
The share of the second transfer is 40%, and the package price for the two of them is 300 euros."
Rangnick still refused: "The package price of 300 euros is acceptable, but the transfer share of 40% is too high. After all, if they leave Leipzig Red Bull, we will lose too much on our early investment."
In the end, after several rounds of bargaining, Zhang Sheng and Rangnick reached an agreement, that is, the package price for the two of them was 300 euros, but there was a floating clause of 100. The floating clause stated that if Qin Minghao could play 100 times in the team
The above assists will add an additional transfer fee of 80, and for Li Yun, if his steal or interception data can be ranked in the top five of the season player list, an additional transfer fee of 20 will be added. The last one is also the one that the two sides argue the most, and the final result
No matter who Qin Minghao or Li Yun transfers from Leipzig Red Bull, Longteng Club can get 30% of the second transfer.
It should be said that in order to acquire the two of them, Leipzig Red Bull showed great sincerity, and this time Leipzig also obtained Nie Jiang's right of first refusal, which was regarded as a compensation for them. Correspondingly, Leipzig Red Bull also gave feedback, and they will
Next year, we will increase the assistance to the youth training of the Longteng Football Team on a larger scale, including the training of the youth training coaches of the Longteng Football School and the introduction of more outstanding foreign youth training coaches. This will ease the expansion of the Longteng Football School to Hubei Province to the greatest extent.
The shortcoming of expansion in many cities is the lack of youth training coaches.
On July 23, Longteng made two announcements in a row. First, they announced that Longteng’s attacking midfielder Xu Mingyu would transfer to the Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon. The specific transfer terms were not disclosed. Next, they announced the two leaders of Longteng.
The players, Qin Minghao and Li Yun, known as the Dragon Twin Stars, were transferred to Red Bull Salzburg in a package, and the transfer price was not disclosed.
The release of these two pieces of news caused a sensation in the Chinese football world. Because this is the first time in the past three years that a domestic player has transferred to Europe. Although they are not in one of the five major leagues, they have still attracted the attention of countless teams and fans.
When several domestic Chinese clubs that had long coveted the three of them were greatly disappointed, domestic fans also exploded on the Internet, with all kinds of comments coming in overwhelmingly.
There are praises and blessings:
"Finally, some domestic players are going to play in Europe. I wish them good results."
"I really hope that the Dragon Twin Stars will shine in Europe. Bless them."
Of course, there are also those who express their concerns:
"Why are so many young players going there? Do they have enough physical strength? Do they have enough game experience?"
"I don't know if these young players can be the main players. If they can't play in the game, it's better to let them play domestically. After all, their performance in the country is obvious to all."
There are also many people who complain and despise:
"It's another so-called transfer that is hyped up. There are just a few players at such a young age who have so much ability. They used to hang out in the youth team."
"I despise Long Teng. Some time ago, they were hyping up the rules for the national football team. Now they are hyping up overseas study. The domestic clubs are all bad guys. They still want to bring Chinese football into play. Let's just go to sleep."
"Such players have the nerve to go abroad to study abroad, but they can't even compete in China. Our Guoan even has many outstanding young players like Zhang Xizhe who don't dare to study abroad. Are they worthy?"
"Gui'an players should not be embarrassed. The only one in China who has the ability to study abroad is Zhang Linpeng from Heng."
"Monkeys are shameless. We have so many outstanding young players who are already studying abroad without saying a word."
"You donkeys are all sponsored by fake overseas students, so you still have the nerve to speak."
"None of the domestic players in China have the ability to study abroad. I am not a fan of any Chinese team, so from a neutral position, I am not targeting any Chinese team. I can say: The Chinese players of the Chinese team present are
The players are rubbish."
However, these disturbances can no longer affect this transfer. When facing the three players who are about to make the trip, Zhang Sheng is also full of emotions. Zhang Sheng, who is chatting with the three players in his office, is chattering.
He talked about some precautions: "After you go to Europe, you must train and compete hard. You have talent, but don't waste it."
All three players nodded in agreement.
Zhang Sheng mentioned the issue he has been emphasizing again: "I'm not worried about your skills or awareness. What I'm worried about is your body. Now in the Chinese League, you think it doesn't matter. Even if you play in the World Youth Championship, it's not as good as yours."
Physical confrontation is the main focus. But once you get to the European leagues, physical confrontation is something you can't even imagine. Your top priority in the past was to strengthen your physical training."
Li Yun, who has always regarded himself as the big brother, said quickly: "We will. But I don't know if the nutritional meals in Europe will be as delicious as those made by the nutritionist in our team?"
Facing this heartless foodie, Zhang Sheng was also speechless: "We are going to Europe. You don't worry about anything else, but just worry about food?"
Li Yun chuckled and rubbed his head in embarrassment: "When I was in Germany, the food was not delicious. So the first thing that came to my mind was eating."
Zhang Sheng knew that he had already said too much and did not want to waste any more time. Finally he said: "Okay, okay, I won't chat with you anymore. The three of you are all people who have lived experience abroad. I know
You have more advantages than others to adapt to life abroad, but you have to work hard and not let others look down on us Chinese players, you know?"
Facing Zhang Sheng's words, the three people nodded seriously and said in unison: "Absolutely not." (To be continued.)
