Chapter 87 Face Responsibility?

In addition to getting a top apprenticeship contract with a weekly salary of 10,000 pounds, Li Qing also signed a high bonus clause.

Peter Moore, the CEO of Liverpool, will definitely not let the club suffer a loss, so Li Qing paid a certain price for this.

If Li Qing transfers to other teams during the apprenticeship contract period, he must pay a training fee of 20 million pounds.

In addition, Liverpool enjoys priority renewal under the same treatment.

Twenty million pounds can be said to be a drop in the bucket for current football transfers. According to the current market conditions, players whose names have never been heard of start at 20 million euros, those whose names have been heard start at 50 million euros, and well-known players start at 50 million euros. Therefore, the buyout clause of 20 million is actually dispensable.

But Peter Moore has no choice, the apprenticeship contract is like this.

In order to keep the stars trained by the club, Peter Moore took the initiative to invest a lot of money. In addition to the high weekly salary and bonus, he also set up a loyalty bonus for Li Qing.

If he still plays for the club at the age of 18, he will receive a one-time loyalty bonus of 5 million pounds.

Originally, Mendes had consulted with Li Qing before he came to Peter Moore. According to Li Qing's personal idea, he hoped to play in Liverpool for a few seasons before changing the environment. Now, Peter Moore took the initiative to offer many benefits, and even proposed some clauses that Mendes did not mention.

For example, Peter Moore and Mendes have a gentleman's agreement that Li Qing cannot contact other clubs privately before he turns 18. If he can do it, Liverpool will pay 2 million pounds as a reward.

Two million pounds is a small amount for Mendes' wealth, but it is better than nothing. Anyway, it is offered to him, so don't refuse it.

In a blink of an eye, the 24th round of the 2016-2017 Premier League quietly arrived. The most watched league is the London derby Chelsea vs. Arsenal at home. With goals from Marcos Alonso, Hazard and Fabregas, Chelsea, who are at Stamford Bridge, defeated Arsenal 3:1, expanding their lead to 10 points with one game ahead.

Li Qing received a red card in the league match between Liverpool and Chelsea at home. According to the Premier League rules, he had to be suspended for one game, which means that Liverpool could not be included in the match list for the 24th round of the league when they challenged Hull City away, so he was equivalent to getting two days of vacation.

Of course, he did not rest. At the request of U18 head coach Neil Critchley, he returned to Kirkby Youth Training Academy and played a Youth National Super League match for Liverpool U18.

Qing, who has proved himself in the FA Cup and the Premier League, is obviously several steps higher than the U18 players. He completed a hat trick in just half a game, helping Liverpool to lead Manchester United U18 by 18 goals. During the halftime break, Manchester United U18 genius player Angel Gomez said on INS that Li Qing was bullying the small with "big".

However, Li Qing was the youngest player in this game.

The league match between Liverpool's first team in Kingston upon Lake Hull, Yorkshire that night exposed certain problems. No player could solve the problem of scoring goals when Mane and Firmino were closely guarded.

If it weren't for Emre Can's long shot outside the penalty area, Liverpool would probably lose points away from home.

After a narrow escape, they won a victory and won two consecutive league victories.

As Chelsea and Tottenham both won the game, the top three positions remained unchanged. What changed was Arsenal, who lost the London derby. As a former top four contender, Arsenal has fallen to fifth place after two consecutive defeats in the league, only two points more than Manchester United, which is sixth in the league.

However, among the top six in the league, Chelsea has a relatively large lead. Liverpool, the second place, only has six points more than Manchester United, which is sixth in the league. Among them, Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City have very interesting points, 51, 50 and 49 respectively, which means that if they are not careful, they are likely to go to fourth place.

In this context, the 25th round of the league in which Liverpool played against Tottenham at home became the focus of fans who pay attention to the Premier League.

The direct confrontation between the second place and the third place will benefit the other four top six teams.

Their interests are maximized by the fact that the league at Anfield Stadium has no achievements. In this way... Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United, who are facing weak teams in this round, can take the opportunity to score points.

The local media in London and Liverpool paid great attention to this strong dialogue, and it was not inferior to the red and blue battle.

The media and Korean media are also full of attention to this game, but surprisingly, the media and fans of the two countries started to quarrel with each other on the Internet just after the 24th round of the Premier League.

Why?

That is because the first star of Korea, Son Heung-min, plays for Tottenham, while the British-Chinese Li Qing plays for Liverpool.

Since the establishment of the professional league, there has not been a world-class star. Although Li Qing is of Chinese descent, many domestic media and fans do not regard Li Qing as an outsider at all. Some media even call on relevant departments to contact Li Qing and let him return to the embrace of the motherland.

It is precisely because of this that the Korean media and fans have enough reasons to laugh at the media and fans.

The outstanding young players of Korea are fighting in the European league, while young and potential players are still struggling for playing opportunities, and even a U23 protection policy has been created.

The problem is that the players are 23 years old, what is there to protect?

Why not come up with a U20 protection policy?

Compared with the potential index of 23 years old, it is obviously greater under 20 years old.

Now it is even more shameless, even considering the rising stars of other countries as the face of their own football.

The media and fans are speechless about this.

The media and fans avoided the main point. Even though Li Qing's nationality is Great Britain, the blood flowing in his body is 100% British blood. This is an undeniable fact, and he can naturally represent the highest level of football.

Of course, the domestic opinion is not unanimous. Many fans disagree. Even some Chinese Super League international players implicitly stated that Li Qing will never represent football.

Moreover, there are too many cases of geniuses dying in the world football today. Li Qing, who is only 15 years old, has only played two professional league games. It is too early to make a conclusion now.

Li Qing's technical characteristics are indeed distinct, but as his characteristics are valued by coaches of various teams, can he still perform well?

Chelsea has fallen into a pit, will Tottenham still be able to do so?

Obviously not!

Those fans who were in a mess suddenly felt enlightened and slapped their foreheads. Although Li Qing performed well in the FA Cup and the Premier League, contributing five goals in two games, he can't always perform well.

By then, he will definitely be forgotten by the crowd.

Representing the highest level of football?

Haha!
