Chapter 442: Arsenal's Contract Renewal
The first day of Arsenal's return to training is not dominated by training, but by press conferences
This press conference has nothing to do with Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur in the last two games, and it has nothing to do with the London derby in the next game.This press conference was about internal issues at Arsenal.

Wenger smiled in front of the camera and said to the media reporters, Arsenal fans and opponents who kept following Arsenal: "We are very happy to announce that Li Zihan, Aaron Rahm Cy, Kieran Gibbs and Jack Wilshere and Alex Chamberlain, five young players will renew their contracts with the club, they will establish their future at Arsenal, and they will also be Arsenal Nana's future."

"They are still very young and their future is limitless. At the same time, the club also very much recognizes their talent, ability and hard work in training and competition."

"Our contract renewal went very smoothly, whether it was Lee or Jack or Aaron, they were all very happy and smooth."

These reporters don't like to hear whether there are any twists and turns in the renewal process.Because the five people who renewed their contracts are all young players, there is no possibility of them disagreeing or being poached. If other giants want it, they will come to Arsenal after the "fruit" is "ripe". Orchard" and "fruit picking".Such as Cesc Fabregas, Nasri, Van Persie
So they were very dissatisfied with Wenger's formulaic words, so a reporter stood up and asked: "I think fans are very concerned about the salaries of these five talented players, so I would like to ask Mr. Wenger, these five talented players What are the salaries of young players?"

After defeating the mighty Bayern Munich in the Champions League and defeating rivals Tottenham in the league, Arsenal continued to lead the standings.Arsenal, who are fighting on the third front, are advancing all the way, so Wenger is also in a very good mood.

Wenger showed his iconic smile and jokingly said to the reporter who asked the question: "This reporter friend, I think you have five questions."

The reporter asked the salary of five players in one breath. If you look at it carefully, there are indeed five questions.
The reporters from major media in the audience laughed in good faith. The reporter who asked the question didn't make any excuses, but just laughed along with it.

Arsenal seldom have any friction with the media. The relationship between the club and Wenger himself and most of the media is still good, so the on-site press conference was very enjoyable.

Oh. The only thing that has a bad relationship with Arsenal is the "Sun" where the famous "Li Hei" Sanchez took office, but Arsenal didn't invite them today.

According to the notoriety of "The Sun", there are few clubs in Europe that get along well with them.

After making a small joke, Wenger also seriously answered the reporter's question: "The current weekly salary of Aron and Jack has now mentioned 12 pounds, Kieran's weekly salary has been raised to [-] pounds, and Alex's weekly salary has been raised to [-] pounds. The salary has also been raised to [-] pounds, and Li's weekly salary has been raised to [-] pounds! Their contracts are all five-year long contracts."

Upon hearing this answer, the reporters immediately discussed below.
A reporter asked, "May I ask Li, what do you think of this contract?"

Li Zihan smiled and replied: "I am very happy that the club renewed my contract. I think any normal person will be very happy when his boss raises his salary. So I am no exception. I am also very happy with the salary given by the club. Very satisfied. This is a win-win outcome, my performance has won the attention of the club and the love of the fans, and at the same time the club rewarded me with a good salary."

Hearing this, some people immediately stopped talking about Li Zihan's high salary.To be honest, the salary of Li Zihan's current ability and talent is really not inflated, just look at his statistics.In the 24 rounds of the league, Li Zihan played a total of 25 games as starters and substitutes, scoring a total of [-] goals, with an average goal rate of one goal per game and ten assists.And there are seven goals and three assists in the Champions League. There is really no problem with such a salary for such a performance, and it even feels a little less
You must know that Li Zihan's current statistics are only comparable to Suarez and Diego Costa, who also broke out together this season, and even the two are even worse than Li Zihan.
However, Messi has been affected by injuries this season, and his scoring statistics are not as impressive as before, but his assists have become more.Although Ronaldo is as strong as ever, he is still one goal behind Costa in the league scorer list. He has only scored 22 goals in La Liga.
The word "talent" can be used in comparison with Li Zihan.In the 29 rounds of La Liga, Ronaldo played 26 games and scored 22 goals, which is a very good statistic.
Although he was suppressed by Costa in the same city in the league, Ronaldo is the leader in the European arena. He scored ten goals in eight Champions League games
Comparing the data and performance of Li Zihan with Ronaldo, Messi, Costa and Suarez, such a one-point salary is indeed a bit low, because Li Zihan's salary is the lowest among the five.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi aside, Costa’s weekly salary in a civilian team like Atletico Madrid can reach about 11 pounds, which is still the previous salary, and the possibility of Atletico Madrid’s immediate salary increase for Costa cannot be ruled out , because Costa's performance this season has made Atletico Madrid want to die
During the winter break, Liverpool also completed a contract extension with Suarez.Su Shen's weekly salary reached a terrifying £20.
In such a comparison, Li Zihan's salary is indeed not high, and it seems a bit low.Su Ya, who is even worse than him in the number of goals and assists, can get 20. It is almost twice as much as him.

However, when Li Zihan first joined Arsenal, Wenger gave him a contract with a weekly salary of [-] euros.It is equivalent to [-] pounds. This salary does not mean that Li Zihan is just a rookie who has just joined the club. Even if there are not many old people in the team who have a higher weekly salary than this
So at the beginning, the fans and even the team protested against the salary of Li Zihan, a 19-year-old young man, but as the season progressed, Li Zihan's state was out of control, and no one mentioned it. That's the problem.

So compared to Li Zihan's previous contract, his weekly salary has increased by [-] pounds, and he has only joined the team for less than a season. At this time, it is a contract extension, it is better to just say it is a gift to Li Zihan. Let this talented young player have full confidence in Arsenal's future. You need to know that Li Zihan still has four years and three months to expire in his previous contract.

Now, Li Zihan has become Arsenal's highest salary after Ozil.

In less than two hours, the news of Arsenal's renewal of the team's "five young players" spread throughout Europe, Asia and even the world.
Inevitably, everyone is full of heated discussions about Arsenal's salary for the "five young players", and there are both supporters and opponents.

Some people questioned Ramsey's performance and ability compared with this high salary. You must know that Ramsey's £[-] contract in the previous year was still questioned and scolded by various people. Although his performance is OK now, [-] is too high. Yes, up to [-] is not bad.

Of course, the contract with Li Zihan is the most discussed one.

Many people are unbelievable, less than one season after joining, Arsenal gave him so much salary increase, so his performance has been so good, how much should he pay next season, next season, next season ?

You must know that Arsenal is the best club selected by UEFA and the club with the healthiest financial balance. It has a strict system and ladder for players' salaries.It is impossible to break this balance for one player, so now Li Zihan's salary can still be afforded by the club, what if he renews his contract twice?
Although Suarez, who is a little weaker than Li Zihan, has renewed his contract with Liverpool, his weekly salary is as high as 20 pounds.But this does not rule out that Liverpool themselves are doing a price-gouging to sell Suarez next summer, because Suarez is so good this season, so he has attracted the attention of many teams, such as rivals Manchester United, local tycoon Manchester City and the Western Super League duo.
Liverpool knows that it is unlikely that they will be able to keep the "White Shark", so they intend to maximize the benefits
But this part of the fans are thinking too much. You must know that if Li Zihan's contract is renewed twice, he will be at least 26 or even 28 years old.Although an offensive player of this age is in the most glorious period of his career, it is also the last dazzling period.And whether someone can stay in your team until the age of 27 or [-] is still one thing, so it's all just worrying about it.

Perhaps the psychology of jealousy occupies the vast majority.

And some fans think that the salary given in this contract is too little, because Ozil took the team's highest salary of 14 pounds.But his performance and statistics, as well as his status and dedication are not as good as Li Zihan, so Li Zihan should not be inferior to Ozil. The best price is 16 to [-] pounds
And considering the huge Chinese market behind Li Zihan, even if you give him a weekly salary of 50 to [-] pounds, Arsenal will eventually be able to get it back with interest.
So this price is really not expensive. It is also very cost-effective.If you don’t believe me, call Real Madrid to take a look. If you don’t consider the locker room, they dare to give Li Zihan an annual salary of 2000 million euros, which is more than Ronaldo’s 700 million.
