Chapter 1017

David Gill communicated with Ferguson and Glazer, and Glazer immediately asked his eldest son, evram, to attend the contract renewal negotiation in person.

Evram is not satisfied with Gao Xiaodong's contract renewal conditions. He thinks that the annual salary of 15 million euro is already very high, and he even has to increase it by 20% every year. This is simply not enough.

Ferguson also believes that an annual increase of 20% is too high. Once it's spread, it will certainly make the players dissatisfied.

Ferguson and Everton told him that the 20% price he asked for was 10%.

Ferguson thinks it's acceptable to increase his salary by 10% every year. After all, Gao Xiaodong is still young and will have a peak period of seven or eight years. It's normal for his salary to increase every year.

But evram thinks that 10% can't be given. The annual salary of 15 million euro is already the highest in the world. He has given enough face to Gao Xiaodong. If Gao Xiaodong wants to float 10% more, he is greedy.

In addition, evram is not happy to hear that Gao Xiaodong is not willing to renew his contract. He thinks that Gao Xiaodong is not loyal to Manchester United.

David Gill saw that evram misunderstood Gao Xiaodong and said: "it can't be said that Gao Xiaodong is not loyal. He is greedy for money. After signing a long-term contract, the initiative is in the club. I'm afraid it's not easy to raise his salary."

Evram sneered and said, "will people who are too greedy be loyal? I don't believe that. "

Ferguson said: "loyalty is not the first thing, as long as he is professional enough. At present, Gao Xiaodong is an indispensable player for Manchester United. Without him, the league and FA Cup are good to say, but it is difficult for us to compete with Barcelona for the Champions League."

Evram frowned and said, "that means we have to agree to whatever he offers."

Ferguson said: "we can't say that either. We can't accept the excessive conditions. Of course, Mendes won't mention it. He is more decent in business than laiola. At present, Mendes's requirements are basically in line with Gao Xiaodong's ability and status."

Since the Glazer family took charge of Manchester United, it has been strongly opposed by Manchester United fans because of its low investment and huge debt. It is difficult to say whether the Glazer family can hold on without Ferguson's strong support.

Therefore, although evram was dissatisfied with Gao Xiaodong's contract renewal conditions, he showed great respect to Ferguson and said immediately: "when I came, my father asked me to listen to your opinions."

"Ferguson is very satisfied with the attitude of evram," we will continue to negotiate with Mendes, hoping to use more suitable conditions to complete and Gao Xiaodong's contract extension

David Gill reminded: "Sir Alex, we don't have time to negotiate slowly. According to the media, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City are all in contact with Gao Xiaodong, especially Real Madrid. He has a deep relationship with Mendes and Gao Xiaodong. If they offer more favorable conditions, it's hard to guarantee that Gao Xiaodong will not leave."

Everam a listen, also quite worried way: "so many teams want to dig high Xiaodong, I'm afraid it will put high Xiaodong appetite hanging higher."

Ferguson said: "no, I know Gao Xiaodong. Although he is a bit greedy, he is not insatiable. Otherwise, after last season, he will go to Manchester City or Chelsea instead of Manchester United."

Evram recalled that when the transfer period last season, Manchester City had already paid 17 million euros a year for Gao Xiaodong. However, Gao Xiaodong still rejected Manchester City. It can be seen from here that Gao Xiaodong is not a mercenary man. He still has certain principles and bottom line.

David Gill said: "I have had exchanges with Mendes. In my opinion, Mendes has little hope of giving in. What he can accept is that his contract will be renewed for two years with an annual salary of 15 million and an annual increase of 10%

Ferguson touched his nose and said with a smile: "I think we still have exchange conditions, such as captain. Gao Xiaodong is very eager to be captain. You can promise him to give him the armband next season. In addition, the annual salary increase of 10% every year can be replaced by the signing fee. Compared with the illusory 10%, I think Gao Xiaodong will prefer real gold and silver Signature fee. "

David Gill and evram are very satisfied with Ferguson's replacement plan. Although Manchester United can't save much money, it will have little impact on the wage structure.

Evram reported the result of the discussion to the bedridden old Glazer, who also thought the plan was good and asked evram to do it according to Ferguson's arrangement.

When David Gill saw Mendes again, he told Mendes the result of his discussion with Ferguson and evram, but he didn't say that Gao Xiaodong would be captain next season.

Mendes is still satisfied with such conditions. Gao Xiaodong hopes to stay at Manchester United this season, so it's not easy to overcharge. However, Mendes didn't immediately agree to communicate with Gao Xiaodong.

Mendes called and told Gao Xiaodong about Manchester United's offer to renew his contract.The bottom line of Gao Xiaodong's contract renewal is to get the highest salary in the world. Only in this way can he be worthy of the position of Mr. golden ball. After the renewal of his contract, the contract will not exceed four years, so that Manchester United can reduce their constraints and restrictions.

Judging from the renewal contract given by Manchester United, Gao Xiaodong's requirements have been met, and the signing fee of 30 million euro is really very rich. Gao Xiaodong is quite satisfied, so he agreed to it. What he didn't expect is that if he refuses again, David Gill will satisfy his wish to be captain next season.

Gao Xiaodong and Manchester United have no objection to the overall scheme of the contract. The remaining details are simple. After the negotiation between Mendes and David Gill, Manchester United finally completed the renewal of Gao Xiaodong's contract before the FA Cup final.

Before Gao Xiaodong renewed his contract, rumors about Gao Xiaodong were everywhere on the Internet in the media. Either Real Madrid wanted to buy Gao Xiaodong, or Manchester City wanted to dig Gao Xiaodong, and the conditions were very favorable, which made Manchester United fans panic and worried that Gao Xiaodong would leave Manchester United next season.

Even Manchester United's players are not sure whether Gao Xiaodong will leave. After all, Gao Xiaodong has a precedent of leaving after a season at Inter.

Now, after Gao Xiaodong announced his new contract with Manchester United, both fans and teammates are at ease.

The media also praised Manchester United's decision to renew Gao Xiaodong's contract with the highest salary in the world, believing that this is the most sensible and successful contract renewal for Manchester United, which can guarantee the glory of Manchester United in the next four years.
