The strongest winger

Chapter 526 The Grand Ailuo Meeting
In the afternoon of the same day, Chelsea held a new signing meeting open to the media at the Cobham training base. The new signings headed by Aiello gradually appeared in the eyes of the public, and the reporter also pressed the shutter at the first time.

Of course, their attention is focused on Aiello, the most valuable football player in the world. As for Malouda, Pizarro, and Sidwell, these players are like supporting roles for the Oscar's best actor.

When holding a press conference, the reporter wanted to know Aiello’s goal and pursuit of transferring to Chelsea, that is his specific weekly salary, because he has already spent a record transfer fee of 6000 million pounds, so his personal treatment will definitely not be bad, because his annual salary after tax in Valencia is 700 million euros, which is equivalent to about 475 million pounds in pounds.

If divided by 42 working weeks, that means his weekly salary after tax is £11.

The tax rate in England is as high as 39%, which means that Ai Luo's pre-tax weekly salary must reach at least 18 pounds.

This pre-tax weekly salary has far exceeded the 13 pounds weekly salary of captain Terry, but the problem is that Ai Luo signed with Chelsea for a period of five years, and he was transferred at a high price, so the salary must be higher than before. Not lower.

In other words, Ai Luo's pre-tax weekly salary will definitely reach more than 20 pounds, but the specific amount is unknown.

And this specific salary figure is like a bachelor seeing a beautiful goddess to the media, and he can't help but want to understand and dig out the final figure.

You must know that the average pre-tax weekly salary in the Premier League has not exceeded 20 pounds, but Chelsea has a pre-tax weekly salary of more than [-] pounds. What will other players think?
A person can be strong!But is it stronger than five or six people?
Therefore, the salary can exceed two to three times that of others, but once it exceeds six times, it is unacceptable.

Also playing in the top league, why can others get a weekly salary of more than 20 pounds, so why can I only get a weekly salary of less than [-] pounds?

People have a mentality of comparison.

What Aiello doesn't know is that his transfer and treatment have caused many Premier League players to express dissatisfaction with the club's treatment. Just like Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Mendes, who only renewed his contract with Manchester United for five years last season, he approached Sir Alex Ferguson again, hoping to improve the treatment again.

The same problem also appeared in other leagues. For example, the agents of Kaka and Ibrahimovic, who played well in Serie A and the Champions League last season, have found their respective clubs, hoping to improve the treatment, so as to be directly proportional to the contribution of the players to the team.

A day later, it was "The Times" again. The editor-in-chief Tony Evans' column report attracted the attention of the whole of Europe: "When the average weekly salary of the entire Premier League was less than 20 pounds, there were already players whose weekly salary exceeded [-] pounds. It has to be said that the Premier League has entered an era of burning money under Chelsea's gold dollar policy, but how much is this specific weekly salary? We don't have a specific figure, but we received a reliable source yesterday afternoon..."

“……具体的周薪应该达到了骇人听闻的税前25万英镑！如果这么算下来的话，扣除39%的税率，到达艾口袋里的周薪将高达15·2万英镑，比目前英超周薪排名第二的特里税前13万英镑和排名第三的里奥·费迪南德的12万税前周薪还要多！”

Tony Evans' column not only includes Ai Luo's specific weekly salary figures, but also various astonishing bonus figures. It can be said that Ai Luo's current salary is the highest in the entire world of football!

The after-tax weekly salary is 15 pounds, and the annual salary converted into euros will reach an astonishing 2 million euros. If converted into RMB, it will reach 940 million!

The European media are constantly hyping Aiello's sky-high weekly salary, while powerful player agents have begun to use Aiello's sky-high weekly salary as an opportunity to negotiate with the club, demanding to improve the player's treatment!

At this time, the sports media far away in China, in addition to reporting on Xie Yalong's affairs, also reported on Ai Luo's exorbitant weekly salary that was just exposed.

In the past, they were discussing how high the weekly salary and annual salary of a certain player in a certain league in a certain league were all on the Internet, but now it is different. Now everyone is discussing the sky-high annual salary of their compatriots!

The change of roles made the Chinese fans participating in the discussion feel very happy!

When the "Times" exposed Ai Luo's sky-high weekly salary, Chelsea CEO Kenyon did not evade this issue, and cooperated with the media interviews as he did when Ai Luo transferred to Chelsea at a high price.

Knowing without speaking, words are endless!
This has to make thoughtful reporters wonder, is it intentional for the Chelsea club to expose Aiello's exorbitant weekly salary in The Times?

Soon, Kenyon announced a message: "At three o'clock in the afternoon on July 7, Chelsea Club will hold a grand new aid meeting at Stamford Bridge Stadium!"

Of course, rather than a grand new aid meeting, it is better to say that Chelsea held a personal meeting with Blues fans for Aiello, and choosing this time to take care of the work and rest time of Chinese fans.

It wasn't until then that the media realized that all this was just to pave the way for Aiello to meet the Blues fans at Stamford Bridge two days later!
In other words, build momentum! !
However, the fans of the Blues Chelsea were divided into two factions at this time. The supporters believed that Ai Luo's sky-high transfer fee and sky-high weekly salary must be worth the money, and it was only natural to hold a grand new aid meeting at the stadium.

The opposition believes that Aiello has only proved himself in La Liga and the Champions League. In their minds, the Premier League is the best league in the world. The level of physical confrontation is not comparable to the technology-based La Liga.

Is a player who has not proven himself in the Premier League worth the sky-high transfer fee and sky-high weekly salary?

So there's a big question mark on that.

Besides, does it make sense to hold a meeting at Stamford Bridge?

For a while, neither of the two major factions of Chelsea fans could convince anyone.

Because Valencia, led by Aiello, eliminated Premier League teams Chelsea and Liverpool one after another in the Champions League knockout round last season, it can be seen from these four games that Aiello is not the kind of player who cannot adapt to the Premier League level of confrontation, but is not good at using his body.

In other words, Ai Luo still has potential in the Premier League, but the specific potential can only be verified by time.

The Chelsea fans calmed down, but the fans of their bitter rivals Fulham started to make trouble.

They think that Chelsea is completely like being taken for a ride.

Valencia is clearly a team that is about to go bankrupt. Players who buy them should try to lower the price as much as possible, but Chelsea did the opposite, and spent a record 6000 million pounds. Isn't this being taken advantage of?
And when the weekly salary of Premier League players is generally less than 25 pounds, they are given a weekly salary of [-] pounds, which is simply more advanced than being taken advantage of!Reached the stage of cerebral palsy! !

Therefore, it also aroused the anger of Chelsea fans. Real-life fights are the most common phenomenon.

Fortunately, the security measures in London were good, and they were quickly stopped by the police.

Such a great hatred between the two teams has to start from the last century.

At that time, Chelsea was still a poor man, and the relationship with Fulham, which was also in West London, was not good, but West London was a wealthy area, and the fans of both teams were relatively high-profile, unlike the blue-collar workers in East London who were popular with bayonets.

Fulham fans joked that Chelsea fans were food stalls, and Chelsea fans also joked that Fulham was a farmer. In fact, the two teams at the time were evenly matched, and over time they became sworn enemies.

But now that Chelsea is rich, they don't take Fulham seriously.

But the fans of Fulham don't think so. They think that Chelsea is just lucky to be favored by the Russian oil tycoon.

Now that he has this kind of opportunity, wouldn't he make a good laugh about it?

On the last day of July, the weather in London was very different from the usual weather in London. The weather was sunny and sunny, the temperature during the day reached a maximum of 7 degrees Celsius, and the humidity was not high, which was very suitable for the competition.

On this day, Aiello will make his debut at Stamford Bridge as the owner in the presence of [-] Blues fans.

At 02:30 p.m. local time in London, that is, 09:30 p.m. BJ time, CCTV-5 was connected to the signal transmitted from the Stamford Bridge Stadium, and the stand facing the host seat was slowly filled with Blues fans.

What followed seemed to be a London derby rather than a new aid meeting.

The on-site staff is still busy, and a temporary speech platform is arranged in the center of the court.

Although CCTV and the Premier League have reached a stalemate in negotiating the Premier League broadcast rights in mainland China, Chelsea's new aid meeting is not under the jurisdiction of the Premier League, so they only need to buy broadcast rights from Chelsea.

The camera switches successively, and many huge posters of Ai Luo appear.

Many loyal fans of CCTV-5 always feel a bit awkward watching the Premier League live through CCTV, because they are used to watching Premier League games through the Internet or other local channels. The habit they have developed over the years will take a little time to fully adapt to the Premier League broadcast footage.

Chelsea's anthem 'Blue-is-the-colour' played non-stop on the live radio at Stamford Bridge

Half an hour passed in a flash, the stands gradually became quiet, and the volume of the team anthem played on the radio was much lower than before. As soon as three o'clock arrived, a big bald man wearing Chelsea's new season jersey came out of the player tunnel, and then walked to the temporary speaking platform arranged in the center of the stadium.

Die-hard Chelsea fans all recognized that this is live DJ Carl Chapman who has quietly dedicated nearly 20 years of youth to the Chelsea club.

The fans in the stands fell silent, and the radio stopped playing "Blue-is-the-colour". Bill Chapman, who was slowly walking towards the temporary podium, began to speak, and his passionate voice spread through the radio: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the new signing meeting at Stamford Bridge today. I am your old friend Bill Chapman..."
