Tang Hong expects to finalize the transfer before returning to China, and he himself needs to make a careful decision.
Manchester United, Arsenal, and Dortmund can all go to the three clubs. The style of play fits his characteristics. Although the competitiveness of the league in which the team is located is different, they all start with Champions League teams.
When it comes to play, Dortmund actually has an advantage over Manchester United and Arsenal, because it is more in line with the trend of the future. It is better to be at the forefront than to follow the trend, but the disadvantage is that the overall competitiveness of the Bundesliga is not as good as the Premier League.
If you go to Dortmund, there is only one goal in the civil war, and you can win the championship by killing Bayern Munich.
The Premier League is different. The drastic change brought about by Aguero's countdown lore at the last moments of Manchester City is a chaos in the Premier League. A new face is added to the Premier League champions. At the same time, Manchester City has reproduced Chelsea with gold dollars to promote the club. The local pinnacle.
From the perspective of competitive pressure, Manchester United and Arsenal have an advantage over Dortmund.
Manchester United’s biggest advantage is Ferguson, but Tang Hong knows this advantage but is very uncertain.
When will Ferguson retire?
Historically, he will only coach for one more season and retires in the summer of 2013.
Then Manchester United ushered in long-term turbulence.
Arsenal's only advantage is that Wenger will at least manage Arsenal for a longer time, and is inferior to Manchester United in other aspects.
Tang Hong had a phone conversation with Ferguson through Mendes. Tang Hong told Ferguson very clearly: If I will decide to join Manchester United, it is because you will coach Manchester United for a long time. I hope you can make a guarantee.
Ferguson is naturally a guarantee.
After thinking for another day, Tang Hong replied to Mendes: "Notify Manchester United of my terms. I can join Manchester United, but the contract is only signed for two years. If they do not agree with me, they will go to Arsenal or Dortmund."
When Mendes arrived in Manchester with Tang Hong’s terms to negotiate with the top management of Manchester United, Tang Hong had already arranged things at his home in Braga. Although he was not sure where to go, there was nothing wrong with packing up first, he would definitely leave after all. .
Looking at the clothes packed in the house, Tang Hong spread his hands to Sun Rou: "Look, my clothes are already packed in eight boxes and I can't finish them. At least half of them haven't been worn through, making me okay with that kind of clothes. Just like a woman who buys bags and shoes, you look at your clothes and the three boxes are all packed. When you go shopping in the future, buy more beautiful clothes for yourself, dress yourself differently every day, and be in a good mood. Right?"
Sun Rou just listened to but didn't speak, as if she didn't worry about Tang Hong's words.
All they need to pack away are clothing and a small amount of daily necessities. The rest are still here. The villa is not going to be sold. Tang Hong will keep this property. There is no investment. If it is changed to Lisbon or Porto, there may be investment value. , Braga's real estate appreciation space is extremely limited in the long run.
But it’s good to leave a thought and place to stay in Portugal. It takes less than an hour to come from Porto.
Chen Manhong also wanted to take away the massage table and hoist ring equipment, but Tang Hong shook his head and said, "From the perspective of cost, the transportation cost might as well be bought in a new home."
Chen Manhong gave up after thinking about it.
Just as they were tired after a long busy day and started to eat dinner, Mendes called.
"Hong, the Manchester United club disagrees. If 23 million euros can only sign you for two years, your initiative to transfer again next summer will make them very passive.
They even suspect that you are trying to make huge profits through frequent transfers. "
Tang Hong laughed and said: "Well, then you tell them my real concerns, I can take a step back, if Ferguson still coaches Manchester United next summer, I must force Manchester United to renew for another year. This is considered a 2+1 clause. Right.
what do you think? "
After thinking for a while, Mendes hung up the phone. After he conveyed Tang Hong's new conditions to Manchester United, after a day of negotiation, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
On May 31, Tang Hong left Braga alone for Manchester, England. Mendes waited for a long time at Manchester Airport.
When Tang Hong, who was wearing a casual T-shirt, jeans and fashionable sunglasses, walked out of the airport, Mendes hadn’t even stepped forward to him, not knowing where a group of people came from and started taking pictures of Tang Hong with cameras. And babbled inquiries beside him.
"Tang, did you come to Manchester to join Manchester United?"
"Why did you reject Real Madrid?"
"Does Manchester United promise you that they can apply for a labor permit for you?"
...
Tang Hong ignored the reporters who were almost one meter away from him. This kind of scene was not good for greeting Mendes too much. After Mendes had an entourage who blocked the reporters, the two got into the car and went straight to Manchester United. Warrington training base.
Tang Hong will undergo a medical examination there. After passing the medical examination, he will be able to reach an agreement with Manchester United. As for the final transfer, he will have to wait until he obtains the labor certificate.
There are also many reporters waiting outside the Carrington Training Base, especially the local media in Manchester. Their internal channel news made them more certain that Tang Hong is coming today.
Ferguson has entered the holiday, but still came to the training base from his home in Cheshire.
When Tang Hong and Mendes got off the car at the Carrington training base, the two bosses under the Manchester United board of directors came together to greet them.
CEO David Gill and head coach Ferguson.
Mendes stepped forward and shook hands with the two old acquaintances first. Tang Hong saw Ferguson with a smile on his face and stepped forward to greet him proactively, "I didn't expect you to come too. It's my honor."
After shook Tang Hong's hand, Ferguson patted him on the shoulder like an elder, and smiled: "I believe this will be a moment of great significance to the Manchester United club. How can I be absent?"
Tang Hong smiled, and after shaking hands with Jill, he walked into the building of the Carrington Training Base and began a physical examination.
The physical examination is just a cutscene, but for the expensive transfer of more than 20 million euros, the Manchester United club will naturally be cautious, especially for players from small teams. Maybe the medical conditions of the small teams are not developed, which may lead to players. Some hidden diseases of the body were not noticed.
It wasn't until the evening that Tang Hong went through various physical examinations. The Manchester United club medical team gave Ferguson and Jill a very satisfactory result: Don't think this kid is not tall, but as strong as a cow!
Tang Hong's body fat rate is very low, which stems from strict diet control and long-term adherence to planned training.
After passing the medical examination, Manchester United and Braga will start the procedure for Tang Hong's transfer.
Due to the FIFA ranking of the Chinese team and Tang Hong's attendance in the national team for only one year, the Manchester United club needs to apply for a labor license for him.
The FA will definitely reject Manchester United's transfer application. According to the rules, Tang Hong just cannot get a labor license.
At this time, Manchester United will activate the special genius clause on appeal, and then decide whether to give Tang Hong a labor license after the FA hearing.
Don't worry about this. With Tang Hong's performance in the Portuguese Super League last season, it is absolutely no problem for him to get a labor license.
It's just that it will take a while to make his transfer officially end in time.
Ferguson invited Tang Hong to have dinner at his home and said that his wife's cooking skills were not good enough, but Tang Hong refused, and he was going back to China to participate in the national team training.
Ferguson asked him not to be injured in the national team, looking forward to seeing a spirited and healthy Tang Hong during the summer preparations.
Mendes took Tang Hong to the airport personally, and the two sat in the back of the car chatting on the way.
Mendes sighed: "The contract treatment given to you by Manchester United is not the best, not even the top three. The most annoying thing is that Zenit in St. Petersburg gave you an annual salary of 6 million euros. Chelsea It also gave 4.5 million pounds, but Manchester United only had 3.5 million pounds.
However, Tang Hong, don't you really consider using your own commercial value?
By endorsing some products and using free time to attend some events, I can guarantee that the money you earn every year will far exceed the salary you earn in the club. "
Mendes is actually quite content. Last year he came to his house and successfully became Tang Hong’s agent. One year later, Tang Hong moved to Manchester United and he was able to get more than two million pounds in remuneration from Manchester United, as well as Tang Hong. A small part of the annual salary is divided into.
But in line with the principle of excellence and profit maximization, he also hopes that the clients themselves can make more money, because the players' sports career is short and fragile, and there is nothing wrong with earning a generous guarantee for a better life in the future.
Tang Hong shook his head slightly and said: "I said about my conditions when we first met, and I don't intend to change the principles at the time."
After hearing the words, Mendes sighed and said: "Well, then I won't discuss this topic anymore, nor in the future. If you change your mind, you can take the initiative to tell me.
But what I need to remind you is that if you want to be a great star, in this era where information flow dominates your attention and popularity, commercial hype is essential, because in this way you can have a greater popularity base. "
Tang Hong was thoughtful when he heard the words, but did not respond.
After Tang Hong returned to Braga, he informed Chen Manhong of the result of his Manchester trip and asked her to start looking for a new house in Manchester.
This matter is not particularly anxious, after all, it will take time for the FA to reject Manchester United's transfer and hold a hearing. Tang Hong will now return to China to compete in the World Cup Asian Top Ten!
Just wait until Manchester United prepares for the summer in early July to have a new home before he reports.
Chen Manhong asked Tang Hong whether to rent or buy a house.
Tang Hong took it for granted: "Buy."
"What's the budget?"
"As long as the house is good, money doesn't matter. I am also a person who can earn millions of pounds a year."
Chen Manhong only felt speechless...
However, she really counted. Tang Hong’s salary for a year in Braga was not high, but he scored, won, assisted, helped the team win the championship, and so on. Mendes helped him and cloth. The terms signed when Laga re-signed the contract really allowed Tang Hong to earn 1.12 million Euros during his one season in Braga!
This money happened to make up for Tang Hong's purchase of the Braga villa and various expenses in the past year.
It's really self-sufficient that he still has a surplus, anyhow the Mid-Levels villa has become his real estate.
