Fox in the Penalty Area

“…The latest news is that the King of Madrid failed to reach an agreement with Hu on the transfer… The King of Madrid officially refused to disclose the reason for the failure to reach an agreement… It is currently unknown whether the Kings Club of Madrid will make a new offer to Leeds… ”

When Meli Banega in the car heard such a voice on the radio, a smile appeared on his face.

If he wanted, Hulay rejected the King of Madrid-the news would not say so, but Meli knew that Hulay must have rejected the King of Madrid, not that the two parties failed to reach an agreement on personal treatment.

After receiving Hu Lai’s call suddenly, Meli had a vague hunch that Hu Lai might not come.

Sure enough, he didn’t come!

This is really the best news Melly has heard recently, and it also made the stone in his heart fall to the ground.

No matter where Hu Lai is going, at least they can continue to be opponents, and he also has a chance to defeat Hu Lai.

Get out of the car and leave. Meli enters the locker room of the team’s training base. He heard the team’s final talk for Rafael Fonseca.

“If I were Hu, I would not come. After all, the media hype about the previous incident has caused dissatisfaction with many Kings fans. If he wants to show his face, he shouldn’t come…”

“I don’t think so, Rafael. The so-called fan opinions are all excuses. If you really want to transfer, it will not constitute any resistance at all.” Fonseca’s Brazilian national teammate Dudu Carlos had different opinions. . “It’s only because of personal treatment issues that didn’t negotiate.”

Carlos’ words won the approval of many people.

After all, this is the Madrid Kings. Apart from personal treatment, it is really hard to imagine that there are other reasons to prevent a player from joining.

Unless Hulai is an “anti-king man”-this is a general term for those who dislike the King of Madrid and oppose the hegemony of the King of Madrid.

But judging from the group photo of Hulai and Francis, he should not be an “anti-king man.”

So it can only be the salary issue that led to no agreement in the end.

Meli glanced at Celados, who was changing clothes with a blank face, and had no intention of participating in the discussion.

It is indeed, with his sensitive identity, how to participate.

Everyone knows that if Hu Lai is coming, the most threatened is Alexandra Cerrados.

How do you want him to comment on this?

And many of the Madrid Kings players actually don’t understand the club’s ideas. Cerrados just won the World Cup and reached the peak of his career. There is no need to buy Hulai now to replace Cerrados.

But if Hu Lai was not bought to replace Cerrados, it would be a huge waste for Hu Lai.

They did a good job as the core in Leeds, and went to the Madrid Kings to play as a substitute?

Of course, there is no such precedent. But this kind of thing seems impossible on Hu Lai…

Now Hulai has rejected the King of Madrid, which is good news for Cerrados.

It shows that his position in the team is still unshakable-at least in two seasons. Two seasons later, the 35-year-old Cerrados’s career has come to an end, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to hold his position as the Madrid Kings.

Either retire directly and become one of the few players who can retire at the Madrid Kings.

If you are unwilling to retire, it is very likely that you will leave the Madrid Kings as a free agent. Anyway, the King of Madrid should not easily renew his contract with Cerrados.

Meli retracted his gaze and walked to his cabinet as usual, and began to change clothes.

He didn’t dare to reveal his inner joy, otherwise it would attract everyone’s attention, and he had to break the casserole and ask the end.

He just kept praying to God in his heart, let Hulai go to Catalan United or Madrid pirates!

Catalonia is the best, and the Madrid Pirates are also excellent.

※※※

“Catalan United, Turin Bulls and Madrid Pirates, these three teams are currently in the finals. Let us first exclude the Catalan United that you don’t want to go to, then only the Turin Bulls and Madrid Pirates will remain. The conditions for opening are similar. Which one do you want to go to? Both are good.”

Song Jiajia called to ask Hu Lai.

Hu Lai replied: “Since it’s almost the same, I choose Madrid.”

Song Jiajia laughed: “I knew it! Is it because of Qingqing?”

“There is her reason, but it is not the decisive factor. Going to the Madrid Pirates can play against the Madrid Kings and Catalonia in the league. If you go to the Turin Bulls, you can only wait until the Champions League, but the Champions League is not always It depends on luck to meet the King of Madrid and Catalonia. It’s not addictive.”

Hu Lai added: “And among these giants, only the Madrid Pirates won the Champions League the least. They reached the final four times and won the Champions League twice. It would still be 15 years ago. If I could be a Pirate in Madrid. Isn’t it more difficult and more interesting to win the Champions League than to go to the Madrid Kings to win the Champions League?”

“Yes.” Song Jiajia nodded in agreement. “Moreover, the treatment given by the Madrid pirates is also good, with an annual salary of 9 million after tax, which is not counted as various bonuses.”

Looking at the numbers alone, nine million is not much higher than Hulay’s annual salary in Leeds:

Last summer, Leeds City and Hulai renewed their contract. In order to keep Hulai for a long time, their annual salary to Hulai was 6.76 million pounds, or about 7.9 million euros. This is the number for the first year, and thereafter it will increase by 5% from the previous year’s basis.

That contract allowed Hulay to become a top-paid player in Leeds.

However, it should be noted that the annual salary figures in Leeds City are pre-tax prices.

The United Kingdom levies a 45 percent tax on the rich. The actual annual salary Hu Lai can get is actually about 3.72 million pounds, or about 4.35 million euros.

It can also be seen from this point that Leeds is indeed far away from the rich. The after-tax annual salary offered to players by the Premier League giants is probably about the same as Hulai’s annual salary before tax-and it is not the annual salary level of the top players in the team.

Although the injection of Chinese capital, Leeds City has the confidence to spend money in the transfer market. However, compared with the one-time transfer fee, the annual salary of the players in the team that has to be paid every year is the bulk. Therefore, Leeds City still has to carefully control the team’s salary structure to avoid a financial crisis.

The Madrid pirates are the real giants, although their reputations are not as loud as the city’s archenemy, the King of Madrid.

But they are somehow one of the thirteen super giants in Europe.

The treatment given to Hu Lai is 9 million euros after tax.

Spain’s tax rate is similar to that of the United Kingdom, with an annual salary of 45% and 9 million after tax, which means that Hulai’s annual salary before tax is 16.36 million Euros.

This number not only makes Hu Lai the highest-paid Chinese player, but also the highest-paid Asian player.

The Pirates in Madrid are also the second highest annual salary after the top star Maxi Carey.

In terms of portrait rights, it’s not the same as when it was 100% Hulay in Leeds. If you want to transfer to the Madrid Pirates, you need to transfer 50% to the club, and you only keep 50%-which is not bad. If you go to the King of Madrid, you have to give 100% of your portrait rights to the club.

In addition to a fixed annual salary and income from portrait rights, Hu Lai also has various bonuses.

The goal prize is a fixed bonus item and must be available.

Hulai earns 70,000 euros for every goal scored.

In addition to the goal award, Hu Lai also has an appearance fee this time, and every time he plays-whether it is a starter or a substitute-he can get 50,000 euros. If there is an appearance fee in Leeds, Hu Lai can get 4.8 million euros for this item alone…

In addition, if Hu Lai wins the La Liga Golden Boots, he will also receive an extra 2 million euros in bonuses and the Champions League Golden Boots 3 million.

If the Madrid Pirates win the La Liga championship, Hulay can still get another three million. As for the Champions League champions, four million euros in prize money.

Regarding the team’s championship, the individual player’s bonus is specifically proposed by Hu Lai’s agency. Because there was this clause in Leeds before, there is no reason to give up after changing teams.

The Madrid Pirates Club did not oppose either, just bargaining on the specific amount-they cut the 5 million Champions League prize to 4 million.

After all, they signed Hu Lai, just hope to hit the championship, especially the Champions League.

The Madrid Pirates have no shortage of league titles-they have won 20 La Liga titles in history, second only to the Madrid Kings and Catalonia. Just four seasons ago, the Madrid Pirates also won the La Liga in the 2022-2023 season. The champion. But the Champions League is what the Madrid Pirates have been pursuing. Fifteen years have passed since their last championship. The Madrid Pirates Club hopes to relive its old dream and win the Champions League again.

Since the player took the initiative to propose the championship bonus, he has to do more and do his best to help the team win the championship.

Once they win the championship, the club’s income is far greater than the bonus they give to Hu Lai.

In addition to this, there is a bonus, a special goal award: when Hu Lai has accumulated 40 goals in various club matches, he can get a bonus of 1.5 million euros. If this number is Achieved in one season, then an additional 500,000 yuan will be awarded.

These bonuses are tailor-made for Hu Lai’s ability to score goals. For example, other offensive players will require assist awards, but Hu Lai does not have them at all.

Assuming that Hu Lai scored forty goals in his first season with the Madrid Pirates and won the La Liga Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot-in fact, if he wants to win both the La Liga Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot at the same time, forty goals may be worth it. Not enough, but for the sake of calculation, suppose only forty goals have been scored.

At the same time, helping the Madrid Pirates to win the La Liga and the Champions League, playing 38 rounds of the league and 13 Champions League matches, then he will receive 19.64 million euros after tax.

This does not count the share of portrait rights.

Through this transfer, Hu Lai’s income has been greatly improved compared with the previous one in Leeds.

Although money is not the primary consideration for Hu Lai’s transfer, it does not mean that he can accept a salary cut to play.

“Then it’s settled, I am here to reply to the Madrid Pirates and sign with them.”

“Okay, you can take care of it. When everything is done, just notify me to go to the medical examination.” Hu Lai was relieved to leave everything to Song Jiajia.

After all, in this world, if even Fatty Song can’t believe it, who can he trust?

“There’s another thing…” Song Jiajia hesitated to say something.

“What did you say together.”

“Since you have decided to go to Madrid for pirates, and Qingqing are in the same city, should you two consider…buying a house directly in Madrid?”

Hu Lai was stunned for a moment, he really didn’t expect this just now.

He just wants to live with Li Qingqing~www.wuxiax.com~ to rent a house.

As a result, when I think about it now, it seems that I can really buy a house.

Anyway, with his annual income of more than 10 million euros, buying a house is not too much pressure.

The key point is that he and Li Qingqing share the same home-in the traditional and simple thinking of the Chinese, the rented house cannot be regarded as a “home”, only the house bought belongs to oneself.

“Buy, buy, buy! You decide, let’s do it together!” Hu Lai waved his hand and delegated the power to Song Jiajia.

“Fuck, I am your sports agent, not your house agent!”

“Oh, those who can do more work. Who makes you capable, Fatty? The most important thing is that I believe in Fatty and your aesthetic taste. The house you choose must be something we all like!”

Song Jiajia was very proud of saying this: “Nonsense, don’t look at who your brother is…”

So everything is so decided.

Whether it’s a transfer to Madrid pirates or buying a house in Madrid.
