Football: I am a goalkeeper, averaging 1 goal per game

5 pm.

After Xu Jin sent Lin Xiaoxiao to the express bus back to Yorkshire, he walked slowly towards Martha's Steakhouse.

It was still early and Middlesbrough was not a big city.

So Xu Jin decided to take a walk there.

6pm.

Xu Jin arrived at the steakhouse on time.

Through the French windows of the steakhouse, he saw Rhodes sitting by the window at a glance.

As the team manager, Rhodes still spends more time in the club than his father, club chairman Steve.

"Hello, Mr. Rhodes."

Xu Jin walked to the small round table where Rhodes was, and greeted with a smile.

Rhodes also smiled back: "Sit down! Xu, is this your first time here?"

Xu Jin nodded: "Yes."

Rhodes smiled: "Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"It will be all right."

Afterwards, Rhodes said the names of some dishes to the waiter, and then said to Xu Jin: "Although this is not a formal occasion, I heard that you Hua people talk about business. It seems that you like to chat while eating?"

Hearing what Rhodes said, Xu Jin smiled: "You can also say that. In our culture, eating is a very important thing. The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest."

"Ha ha!"

Rhodes smiled heartily: "Then it seems that I chose to meet you here today, which is quite right."

Xu Jin doesn't like polite words very much.

He went straight to the point: "Mr. Rhodes, what do you want to talk to me about today?"

Rhodes said seriously: "Talk about your development problems!"

"Xu, do you know that you are now in English football and have attracted the attention of many people?"

Xu Jin smiled and nodded.

How could he not know about this kind of thing?

Although I have only participated in two competitions now.

But he scored eight goals in two games.

Moreover, his position on the field is still goalkeeper.

Such a performance cannot attract the attention of English football, that is impossible!

only……

Xu Jin looked at Rhodes and thought in his heart.

England's summer transfer window doesn't end until October.

Now Rhodes came to talk to me about future development.

The club is not trying to sell me, is it?

Rhodes said with a smile: "Haha, do you know that in the past two days, two offers for you have been placed on my desk?"

As the club manager, Rhodes is now in charge of the club's u23u18 two youth echelons and the youth training camp.

As a member of the club's u18 echelon, Xu Jin is naturally managed by Rhodes.

"Two teams?"

Rhodes nodded: "Liverpool! And... Newcastle!"

"what?"

Hearing the names of these two clubs, Xu Jin couldn't believe his ears.

Liverpool, he can still understand.

After all, Klopp is a coach who attaches great importance to discovering young players.

If he saw Xu Jin's performance through certain channels, it would not be impossible for him to recruit him and train him himself.

but……

Newcastle?

Don't they look down on Middlesbrough?

Moreover, in yesterday's game, he also led the team to a 0-9 score.

Not only that.

In yesterday's game, the smell of gunpowder on the field was so strong that any spark could turn the football game into a gang fight.

As a result, one day later, Newcastle actually offered an offer to Xu Jin who had personally caused the tragedy!

"Haha! Didn't expect that?"

Rhodes laughed: "To be honest, when I entered the office today and found an offer email from Newcastle in my email, I couldn't believe it!"

"Then... what kind of conditions did they offer?"

Although he had no plans to leave the team, Xu Jin was extremely curious.

What kind of price will Newcastle, who has nothing but money in his hands now, give him.

Hearing Xu Jin's words, Rhodes raised his eyebrows.

"2000 million pounds, plus a floating clause of 500 million! And the promise of important players in the first team!"

"hiss!"

What Rhodes said made Xu Jin gasp.

Backed by local tyrants, it really is rich and powerful!

How could he offer a sky-high transfer fee of 2000 million pounds to a goalkeeper who only played twice like him!

This figure, although it does not exceed the transfer value record of football players under the age of 18.

That is the 4500 million euros that Real Madrid offered Vinicius.

Xu Jin smiled: "What about Liverpool?"

Rhodes said: "800 million pounds, plus 200 million floating clauses."

"Haha."

Xu Jin smiled, then stared at Rhodes and said, "What do you think, sir?"

"I?"

Rhodes stared: "Xu, although we are only a small club in the British Championship and our financial data is not good, we will not give up a genius like you just for such a sum of money!"

Hearing Rhodes' words, Xu Jin nodded: "Thank you for your compliment."

Rhodes waved his hand: "No! This is not a compliment! Xu, you have to understand clearly that although Middlesbrough is poor, our goal is the Premier League! In order to achieve this goal, we cannot give up players like you !"

Xu Jin nodded to Rhodes who was a little excited: "Then, sir, what is the purpose of your coming to me today?"

Rhodes said: "I said, it's your development!"

"I saw your signing contract with our club, the weekly salary is 1500 pounds, and the contract period is one year."

"I don't think this reflects your value!"

"So, I think if you agree, we can renew your player contract."

It turned out to be the case.

Xu Jin looked at the eager Rhodes.

Presumably, Rhodes found himself today.

It's because I'm afraid that I can't stand the temptation of money or a wealthy family, so let's leave the team! ?

Although it is impossible for Xu Jin to leave Mibao at this time.

Because after all, he still has a long-term task to complete.

A full 20000 training coins!

How could he not?

But since the club intends to send money.

He is also welcome.

Xu Jin pretended to bow his head in thought.

Then, he raised his head and said to Rhodes, "Sir, how do you want to renew the contract?"

Hearing Xu Jin's words, Rhodes raised his eyebrows and said, "We can give you 5000 pounds per week! This figure is already the highest weekly salary for a U18 echelon player since the establishment of our club!"

Xu Jin nodded.

Ok……

The salary has increased by more than 4 times than it is now.

We can still see the sincerity of Miburg.

but……

That's it?

Xu Jin looked into Rhodes' blue eyes and said, "What about the others?"

"Of course! Xu, you will enter the first team in half a year, right? When you enter the first team, your weekly salary will become 15000 pounds! What do you think?"

"OK."

Hearing Xu Jin's answer, Rhodes' eyes lit up: "Really? Are you okay?"

Xu Jin nodded.

Of course no problem!

Now, Xu Jin, who has started the game winning reward, is not too short of money!

He tested Rhodes' purpose.

It is to see the sincerity of the club in order to stay.

U18 youth team, weekly salary 5000.

After being promoted to the first team, the weekly salary becomes 15000.

Although it is not as good as the players of those wealthy teams.

But for a club like Middlesbrough, it is indeed a very sincere condition.

"good, very good!"

Rhodes rubbed his hands vigorously: "Then we hope to sign a five-year contract with you!"

Hearing this, Xu Jin shook his head: "I'm sorry, I may not be able to accept this limit."
