Chapter 73: .073 Someone is leaving

PS: I have something to go out today, so I will release the afternoon update first.
There is a long embankment on the coastline south of Monaco. At the end of the embankment is a famous seafood restaurant. On the second night of the Monaco half-time league, the Monaco team’s Christmas dinner was held here.
When the players brought their family members to the seafood restaurant, they found that Situ Yunbing was still wearing the club's warm down jacket, and could not help but ridicule him.
Situ Yunbing didn't mind this kind of joke. Besides, he himself wanted to pass on some leisure time during the holidays, but he didn't go out in Capday's bachelor apartment today and had a good rest all day. He didn't have time to go. shopping.
The Christmas dinner in Monaco’s private club is not as grand and luxurious as in some well-known hotels in the city. However, you can taste huge oysters, fresh fish and lobsters in this seafood restaurant. Authentic local talents will know that tasting delicious food here is far more enjoyable than eating foie gras truffle snails in a hotel in the city.
There are many young players in the team, so most of them just bring a female partner, and like some older players bring their wives and children, the coaches basically bring their wives, but Situ Yunbing alone There is nothing lonely, it's just used to it.
The restaurant deliberately vacated a space, and De Bondin took the microphone to give a speech in high spirits, not only to summarize the team's performance in the past half season, looking forward to the future, I hope everyone will continue to work hard, but also take the opportunity of Christmas to wish everyone a happy new year.
When he finished speaking, Situ Yunbing was invited to the stage. Amidst the enthusiastic applause of everyone, Situ Yunbing only said a word after he took the stage.
"Now we can forget about football and enjoy life. When the holidays are over, we will talk about football-related things. Everyone, Merry Christmas!"
It's not that Situ Yunbing is not good at speaking, but that when he went to work, he was very annoyed by the leaders to talk about work when he was close to the holiday. Especially after the holiday, he didn't want any work matters to disturb him.
Now that the winter break is in, why bother to talk about work?
What should be said, Debondan has already said, what should not be said, there is no need to say this atmosphere now.
When the banquet began, everyone tried to change their cups, enjoying a delicious seafood meal, and drinking top wines from Bordeaux. Situ Yunbing was actually very satisfied with his life in Monaco.
Although it is a pocket country, it can’t be small, but it has all the internal organs. In terms of eating, you can find Japanese restaurants, South American restaurants, Italian restaurants, etc. in the city, plus fresh seafood, except for temporary tastes. It's hard to come by if you want to eat authentic Chinese food, but everything else can be satisfied.
While everyone was celebrating with a toast, Situ Yunbing found out that the Croatian player Leco, who came alone, was not in high spirits. He called Leco outside when everyone was almost eating and dancing.
Lecco's face was not very good at the end of the game yesterday, but because the team was celebrating the half-time championship of the league, it was very late in the end, Situ Yunbing did not talk to him.
Standing in front of the fence of the long dike, the sea breeze awakened the slightly drunken Situ Yunbing a lot. When the light from the lighthouse was reflected regularly, he turned his head and looked away to avoid direct glare, but the sea water was also shimmering. The scenery is beautiful.
Lecco stood beside Situ Yunbing, and the two leaned their elbows on the railings of the long embankment. Situ Yunbing asked Lecco with a gentle expression: "I saw you seemed a little unhappy. The game ended yesterday. I found out at that moment. I was wondering if it was because I replaced you at halftime yesterday. I hope you don’t misunderstand it. It’s not because of your poor performance, but because of the team’s tactical needs. The responsibility of the team for losing the ball is placed on you, or if you criticize you directly, I will defend you, and I will tell those people straightforwardly how far I can go."
Lecco had no doubt about Situ Yunbing's determination and sincerity in defending himself. He showed hesitation on his face and said after a long while: "It's because I was replaced, but it's not exactly the reason."
Situ Yunbing said solemnly: "I think we can be straightforward and honest. If there are problems, we should actively solve them."
Lecco has never been a fanatical supporter of Situ Yunbing, at least he is not like the young players in the team such as Mongonggu, Moreau they support Situ Yunbing so strongly.
Young players love to support Situ Yunbing. The reason is very simple. Situ Yunbing changed their careers and brought them great opportunities. Exaggeratedly speaking, Situ Yunbing helped them realize their dreams!
However, Lecco is not a firm supporter of Situ Yunbing. As a member of the team, he can best understand the subtle situation.
Situ Yunbing did not simply trust the young players, nor did he drastically cleanse the veterans. At least the four most trusted veterans in the team are obvious: Modesto, Simic, Perez, Merian .
As for Lecco, he is not on this list.
Whether it was forced by the situation or Situ Yunbing really expected the veteran to be able to hold the battle line to stabilize the army, Lecco himself was not so important.
At first, he had a illusion. At one time he believed that Situ Yunbing's trust in him was equal to that of others, but as Situ Yunbing's position became stable, Nkulu's opportunities increased and Leco's opportunities decreased accordingly. A very obvious sign.
After thinking about it, Lecco decided to be more calm. He said to Situ Yunbing: "In the BOSS's mind, Nkulu is the future of the team, and I am not."
Situ Yunbing didn't expect Lecco to say such a sentence. The most important thing is that Lecco's tone does not make him uncomfortable. They are both rational and calm. This is also very good, at least to communicate. Everyone can accept reality.
Situ Yunbing said to Leco sincerely: "I can only say this. If you say that the future is two or three years from now, then Nkulu must be the future of the team. You are not, but if you only look at the next six months, In one year, he still needs to grow, and it is difficult to be completely alone. Your importance is not lower than him."
A bleak smile appeared on Lecco's face.
Nkulu is young, but he is the golden age of 28. If he wants to share his playing time with Nkulu, where should he go when he can completely squeeze him out?
Lecco’s age group is very important. For most players, he is about to enter the end of his career. The fake shot was awarded a 3-5 year contract at the age of 29. Then his contract is fulfilled. Consider or retire directly.
Lecco made up his mind and said to Situ Yunbing: "Boss, recently there is a rumor that Saint Etienne wants to introduce me in the transfer market. If it is true, I hope the club will let me leave when the winter transfer window opens. ."
Situ Yunbing's expression was stunned, but he didn't expect Lecco to leave the team directly!
Not so much!
Situ Yunbing immediately persuaded: "You also know the situation of the team now. We are very hopeful to win the championship this season. We have been working hard in this direction. Your playing time may be reduced, but it will definitely not be a direct result. Substitute, I can guarantee this!"
Lecco shook his head and smiled bitterly: "BOSS, by next summer, I will be 29 years old. If another team wants to introduce me and can give me a stable long-term contract, then I will definitely choose this one. The contract is signed, you know the situation in Monaco, our record has improved, but the financial situation will not improve all at once, and for veterans like me, I don’t think the club will be generous."
Situ Yunbing fell silent upon hearing this.
He did not consider this layer.
In the summer Monaco cut overall wages by 40%. Because of the unsatisfactory record in the past three years, many players have nowhere to go, so they can only sign new contracts.
But now that the team is in good condition, will Monaco raise their wages back?
Not necessarily!
For players who perform well, have potential, and the club hopes to lock in for a long time, the contract is definitely very generous, and it can be regarded as a kind of award, but for players like Lecco who are not absolute main players and have reached the 30-year-old threshold, the club is really as he said. : Can't be generous!
Debondan has his personal style, that is, he is very strict with financial control!
One of the important reasons why he was invited by Prince Albert to be the chairman of Monaco is that he hopes to improve the financial situation of the club through his operation!
He has done a good job, and Monaco's debt of more than 70 million US dollars may be directly reduced by more than 40 million this season!
If the team wins the league championship, Situ Yunbing has no doubt that De Bondin, who has long sleeves in the capital market, can completely reverse Monaco's financial crisis in just one year. It only needs to sign a few sponsorship contracts.
Lecco wants to leave, not because Situ Yunbing forced him to leave, but because of his career situation. If he leaves at this time, he may be able to get a good contract. From next summer, the contract treatment may be Gradually decline, because too many clubs are stingy about 30-year-old players, unless they are top players!
In Ligue 1, more attention is paid to the training of young players. Young people have more room for survival, because they are also the club’s investment in the future and have the attribute of realizing excess income. On the contrary, veterans basically do not have this. Attribute.
Lecco also wants to bring better protection to his future life.
correct.
Situ Yunbing compares his heart to heart. If he is Lecco, he will also think more about his personal future instead of working hard for the club. Five or six years younger, maybe he will do it, but in the later part of his career, it is realistic. Cruelty will force him to make the most rational and self-interested decision!
