Chapter 25 Real Professional Contracts

Ajax struggled to win their final game of the season.

Of course, Van Basten doesn't have to resign, he can continue to prove himself as the head coach, and he can also attend the last press conference of the season as a winner.

"It was a great game, McLaren's Twente is a new force in the Eredivisie, but unfortunately there can only be one winner."

He paid tribute to his opponent in a very gracious manner, and the loser McLaren could only nod with a wry smile.

"Yes, I knew before the game that this is not a game that can be won easily." Perhaps history has changed, and Van Basten's mentality has changed significantly, "Both Suarez and Pressas Our squad has been greatly weakened, but the performance of the players has not affected, no, they are even better than the previous 33 league games."

"Marco," a local reporter raised his hand to ask, "tell me about that amazing Chinese boy?"

Van Basten smiled: "Of course, I knew someone would ask this question, so I found a secretary in advance and wrote a manuscript."

The reporters all laughed.

"It's rare for me to specifically praise a player, but I must praise him today." Of course, Van Basten would not actually find a secretary to write a manuscript for a youth player. When I was on the court, my whole set of tactics had no foundation to use at all. His spare no effort to run, ubiquitous interception, excellent anticipation, tough fight, and persistence and desire for victory made Ajax win this game. The key to winning."

"Yes, I am praising a young Chinese player who is under 19 years old. This is something I have never dreamed of before," Van Basten said without a hint of joking on his face. The thing to do is to immediately call the team's sports director and ask him to sign a lifetime contract with Long Shute as soon as possible!"
-
Of course, a lifetime contract is impossible, and UEFA and the Dutch Football Association will not allow such an overlord clause to exist.

But when Van Basten was talking on the rostrum and looking forward to the next season, Long Shute had already met the two directors of the Ajax club.

Sports director, former Ajax and Dutch national team double meritorious captain, former Ajax head coach: Danny Blind.

Chief Financial Officer: Jeroen-Slop.

Although Ajax is no longer the top giant in Europe, but in this three-acre area of ​​​​Dutch football, these two are still big men who would shake their feet three times.

When the youth training team signed the apprenticeship contract, these two bosses would not show up at all, so Long Shute didn't know them well.

"We know that you have only lived in Amsterdam for two years and you are not proficient in Dutch, so we have prepared two versions of the contract for you."

Slop handed him the folder.

Two language versions, but not English and Dutch, but English and... Chinese.

For a big team like Ajax, it is not difficult at all to find a translator who is proficient in Chinese in an international city like Amsterdam.

But such a simple and considerate move can immediately make the players feel valued by the club.

Of course, Long Shute first opened the Chinese version of the document: Even if his English is good enough to read the contract, it is still not as convenient as his native language.

Although Chinese is much less space-saving than English, the contract is still as many as sixteen pages.

The [-]-page content made Long Shu special stare at him, but he still had to grit his teeth and persevere.

With a current weekly salary of only 80 euros, he certainly cannot afford to hire a broker and legal counsel, and... with his legal knowledge, even if he reads it word for word, he still doesn't know if the contract has an overlord clause or is unfair. place.

But combined with his current situation, Ajax's terms are fairly fair.

The contract is a standard four-year contract, which increases every year, and the bonus is clearly written in detail, as long as you have the ability to get it...

Regarding the obligations of the club, Ajax offered to find him a place to stay and bear all the rent, which is equivalent to increasing his salary by nearly [-] euros a year.

In terms of portrait rights, the club did not forcefully possess them-maybe Ajax didn't think he could get many opportunities for commercial sponsorship?

After he read this document, nearly half an hour had passed, but the two big men of Ajax didn't seem to show much impatience, but kept quiet politely.

This attitude made Long Shute more comfortable.

Regardless of whether they pretended or not, at least Long Shute felt that he was indeed valued by the club.

"I've finished watching," he raised his head, trying to act calmly, "I have a small question."

"Oh?" Both big brothers smiled and nodded, "Please tell me."

"I'm a defensive midfielder, and my main task is not to attack, so..." Long Shu scratched his hair, "The bonuses for these goals and assists are to me...It's like a dream..."

Slop glanced at Blind with a smile, and the latter shrugged: "In the dictionary of Dutch football, there has never been the term defensive midfielder, and... Marko will never let you only be responsible for defense." .If he really does this, then he will definitely leave immediately!"

"Because that is absolutely reckless!"
