Chapter 1512 He Is Here!

To some extent, it is no secret that Yang Yang switched to Ajax.

In the commercial field, Yang Yang's team headed by Wei Zheng and Raiola has been negotiating and cutting off with the Real Madrid commercial team for a long time, and the two parties will continue to cooperate in the future, but there are still many problems to be solved when Yang Yang leaves the team.

This transfer involved the interests of many companies. There were more than 20 sponsors under the name of Yang Yang alone, all of which were among the top brands in the world. If Yang Yang wanted to transfer, he needed to give them an explanation.

Yang Yang has an attitude of getting together and leaving, and he is willing to continue to cooperate. Of course, he welcomes, but if he decides to terminate the sponsorship contract because he wants to leave Real Madrid, he will not stop him.

The final result was that only two large multinational companies chose to terminate the sponsorship contract with Yang Yang, but many brands, including Nike and Porsche, increased their cooperation with Yang Yang instead, and Nike even offered a sky-high price for Yang Yang The lifetime contract will keep him in the Nike camp forever.

The reason is not difficult to guess, Ajax's jersey sponsor is Adidas.

If Nike does not sign Yang Yang, there is no guarantee that Yang Yang will not be poached by Adidas, which is not a good thing for Nike.

Real Madrid also suffered a lot, but because Yang Yang and Real Madrid will continue to cooperate, many of the contracts signed before can continue to be fulfilled as long as the sponsors are willing. Yang Yang will continue to cooperate with Real Madrid and fulfill his corresponding obligations The obligation, but he can no longer wear the Real Madrid jersey.

At least, during his time at and coaching Ajax.

This transfer involved too many conflicts of interest, involving the business interests of dozens of large consortiums in the world, so it was impossible to hide it from everyone. The executives of those large consortiums knew it well. It's just not disclosed.

Even many media reporters who are close to Yang Yang, Real Madrid and Ajax already knew about it.

As early as early March, the Dutch government suddenly introduced a special tax exemption clause, targeting big-name foreign stars playing in the Eredivisie League, they can enjoy a three-year tax exemption.

At that time, many people speculated whether this was paving the way for Yang Yang's return?

The media close to Ajax knew in their hearts that Yang Yang's return was a certainty.

Especially at the end of May, Adidas suddenly announced to renew the contract with Ajax in advance, doubling the sponsorship fee by 10 million euros. Ajax's performance is so poor, why did Adidas renew the contract in advance and increase the sponsorship fee?

In addition, Ajax is also promoting commercial operations in a low-key manner, and has gradually achieved results.

Especially after the end of last season, Ajax signed three major sponsorship contracts in just over a month, with a revenue of more than ten million euros, which opened up Ajax at the commercial level. Asian and North American markets.

Not long ago, Menno Heron, director of Ajax’s business department, held a press conference in Amsterdam, confidently stated that Ajax’s global promotion plan is going very smoothly, and it is expected that it will become Ajax in the next two years. Jax's biggest source of income.

Also at that press conference, Ajax announced the restart of the Chinese youth training program, and will invest 100 million euros in the next year to build Ajax's largest overseas youth training base.

Many people are very surprised by the several major decisions made by Ajax, because Ajax does not have so much money, and why is Menno Heron so confident that he can open up the global market and compete with the major European giants? Grab a meal?

Only those who really know the inside story know that Ajax's confidence comes from Yang Yang.

Even the Ajax Supervisory Committee agreed to restart the Chinese youth training program because of Yang Yang.

he came!

For Ajax, this is an excellent opportunity!

It is also an opportunity to take off!

"Right back, I have to have a right back."

Yang Yang doesn't care about external affairs, what he cares more about is Ajax's performance in the next season.

He made an agreement with the supervisory board that as long as Ajax's performance and management this year reach the originally agreed standards, then he will fully acquire Ajax and make this team completely his personal property, and he will be responsible for it in the future. say.

This is why he has spared no effort to develop Ajax these years, and now.

Both Van Gaal and Van der Sar felt Yang Yang's strong desire, and they both now understand that an offensive right back will be a crucial link in Yang Yang's tactical map, but they have indeed tried their best.

Looking at each other, both of them smiled wryly.

"In the past six months, we have looked at a lot of players, and in the past month, we have almost reconsidered all the right backs in the scouting database who are suitable for us and meet our requirements, but to be honest, it is difficult. "Van Gaal frowned in embarrassment.

"Yeah, the players we like may not be willing to come to our team. For example, Aaron Wan-Bissaka of the Premier League Crystal Palace has just turned 20 years old. He is fast and has excellent physical fitness. Crystal Palace is only in the Premier League. Downstream, but you know, after we contacted his agent, the other party rejected us without hesitation."

"There are several others, England, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Brazil, Argentina..."

Van der Sar spread his hands helplessly, "We have increased the transfer budget to 10 million euros, and we can also make appropriate concessions in terms of annual salary, but the problem still cannot be resolved."

A transfer fee of 10 million euros is considered very high in the Eredivisie.

When Ajax wanted to sign the left back Ruoge, they really hesitated for a long time. In the end, it was Yang Yang who made the decision, but even so, he still received a lot of criticism.

If it wasn't for Jorge's brave performance in the first half of last season, this deal would have been scolded to death by the media and fans.

Ajax is so tricky right now. Better players look down on Eredivisie and Ajax who can’t play in the Champions League. Many of them would rather play as substitutes in the middle and lower reaches of the four major leagues. They don't want to come here.

Anyway, that is also the four major leagues.

This oligopoly effect is becoming more and more obvious, but from another perspective, if Ajax cannot break through its own bottleneck as soon as possible and get rid of the current predicament as soon as possible, then in the end, the situation will definitely get worse and worse.

The Belgian and Dutch leagues are about to merge, but who knows when? Who knows what will happen after the merger?

In any case, now Ajax must be self-improvement!

...

"Is there really no good candidate?" Yang Yang frowned and asked.

Van Gaal nodded, "After our investigation and selection for a period of time, we all think that there are two best plans at present, you can refer to them."

"tell me the story."

"Sergino Dest, the main right back of our youth team, has grown very fast in the past two years. He will enter the second team in the new season and participate in the Dutch second league. The player's speed is fast, his skills are excellent, and he has assists. He's very capable and we all think he's an ideal choice."

Yang Yang nodded and pointed out the biggest problem, "But he is only seventeen years old."

"Yeah, that's his biggest problem right now."

Yang Yang's brows are still furrowed. He is not against promoting young players. Seventeen years old is not a big problem in the Eredivisie, but in the European arena, this age is not very good, especially in the defense, the risk is too great.

Especially when encountering a team whose strength is not weaker than his own, with such an obvious weakness, it is definitely a dead end.

"Is there another plan?"

Van Gaal raised his head and looked deeply at Yang Yang, "The second plan is actually more suitable and more in line with our requirements, that is Real Madrid's right back Ashraf."

"It's him." Yang Yang immediately remembered that this was his teammate in Real Madrid, a young player.

He was Carvajal's rotation and substitute last season. He performed well in some games, but he was not stable enough.

For a team of Real Madrid's level, there is absolutely no doubt about the potential of those who can enter the first team. The key is whether they can cultivate their potential, which is the problem.

Yang Yang searched for the memory of Ashraf in his mind, and felt that this player is really good, with fast speed, active feet, good physical fitness, and worthy of training.

"If I remember correctly, Real Madrid's position for him is on loan?" Yang Yang asked.

Real Madrid is currently full of right backs, and Carvajal is the main force. This summer, he just introduced Odriozola from Real Sociedad and spent 30 million euros. He will definitely occupy a place in the first team. , the position of the teenager Ashraf will be squeezed, and he will definitely leave the team.

Real Madrid's youth training strategy is very clear. To deal with this kind of potential teenagers, they are more inclined to rent rather than sell.

"It is indeed a loan, but you wanted to buy out more, didn't you?" Van Gaal smiled wryly.

This is where he gets into trouble.

Ashraf is indeed a very good choice, but Real Madrid wants to rent, and Ajax is more inclined to buy out, because this can ensure that the players they have trained can bring value to the club.

If it is on loan, after kicking out, I will go back to Real Madrid immediately.

Of course, it is also a difficult problem to persuade Ashraf to come to Ajax.

After all, good players are in demand these days. Ashraf's performance in Real Madrid is not bad, and his worth is not high. If he really wants to transfer, there must be no lack of interest from the four major league teams. Why should he come to Ajax?

Yang Yang clicked his tongue twice, and then saw the expectant eyes of Van Gaal and Van der Sar looking at him, how could he not know what they were waiting for?

To put it bluntly, don't you just want to show yourself?

Ashraf is indeed a little redundant for Real Madrid. Yang Yang's appearance is not considered to be poaching Real Madrid's corner, but it is somewhat sensitive. After all, he has just jumped from Real Madrid.

If there are other suitable options, Yang Yang is really unwilling to come forward.
