When Yang Yang and Raiola arrived at the Amsterdam Arena, there were already reporters waiting for the wind.
This is the case in the professional league.
Yesterday the team just won the championship, celebrated, and reveled, but then it should be concerned about the top issues.
For Ajax, whether or not to stay Yang Yang is the top priority this summer.
Nothing is more important than Yang Yang ’s renewal.
Laiola drove the car directly into the internal parking lot, and all media reporters were blocked.
Although they took photos of Yang Yang and his agent appearing at the Amsterdam Arena, it is difficult to know the details of the specific negotiations between the two parties and whether they can reach an agreement.
It is foreseeable that in the next period of time, Yang Yang's renewal and transfer will become a hot topic in the Netherlands and even the world's major media.
The front desk of the office received the news long ago, and greeted Yang Yang from afar, and greeted the two of them into the meeting room.
In this meeting, in addition to Ajax's director of the technical department and transfer negotiations, Ali Van Eden, the club's chairman Michael Van Prager, and the director of the financial management will also be present.
To Yang Yang's surprise, first-team head coach Ronald Coman was among them.
"Good morning, boss!" Yang Yang reached out to Ronald Coman from afar.
Then he shook hands with the chairman and the directors one after another, politely chatting for a while.
After the female assistant delivered hot drinks and closed the door, both parties also started to enter the topic.
In this meeting, Ajax was led by director Ali Van Eden. He first thanked Yang Yang for his contribution to the team in the past two seasons, thinking he was already the most important core player of the team. At the same time, all members of the club sincerely hope that Yang Yang can stay on the team and continue to grow and develop.
"The reason why we reorganized last season is that part of the reason is to improve our financial situation, and this season we have a significant financial improvement, which also allows us to draw more and more ample funds and invest The team is strengthening and improving. "
With that said, Ali Van Eden handed Yang Yang a copy of the club's transfer signing plan for this summer.
"Our board of directors has basically agreed that the UEFA Champions League next season will be the main core battlefield of our team. In order to achieve better results on this battlefield and strive to qualify from the group stage again, we will be in this summer Try your best to keep all the main players in the current first team. "
After hearing Ali Van Eden's words, Yang Yang was somewhat surprised.
Retain all the main players in the team?
In other words, will Ajax sell the main star this summer?
I have to say that this is indeed a very good proposal, because Yang Yang is very clear that the teammates of this team are still very strong, and they are very young and have made great progress.
But Yang Yang still kept his eyes open and turned to look at Ronald Coman.
Compared to directors, he is more willing to trust the head coach.
Ronald Coleman also nodded toward Yang Yang, defaulting on Ali Van Eden's statement, and it seems that he is a participant in this plan, otherwise he will not be able to attend today's meeting.
It is likely that Ajax further expanded his head coaching authority in order to retain him.
Yang Yang opened the transfer plan that Ali Van Eden handed over. It highlighted that Ajax is desperate to strengthen the midfield, and it is best to be a player with a balanced offense and defense.
The current midfield is Galacek and De Jong's pair of double midfielders. Sneijder is ahead alone, but the problem with this combination is that the defense is very good, but the offense is not enough.
Sneijder's organizational skills are quite good, but the offensive ability is excellent. In this case, he is really too tired to support the midfielder alone. In many cases, he can even be said to be unable to work.
Pinal played well in the left-wing position. His ball organization and passing are very good. If he pulls back to the middle of the midfield, he will partner with Sneijder and supplemented by a defensive midfielder. The strength is enough, but the defense is weak.
To put it bluntly, Ajax is a Dutch team that insists on offensive football. Although Ronald Coman is famous for training and defense, there are never shortage of coaches for training offensive in Ajax, such as Luther Ka Rolle.
Earlier, Yang Yang had received news that it was said that Ajax had a crush on Timoshchuk of Shakhtar Donetsk and Dezeu, the eagle of the Heyi forward, but the former cost a lot of money, even more than one Fifteen million euros.
This has clearly exceeded Ajax's transfer budget.
The Dutch giants really want to recruit, but still it is inevitable that the small team's careful calculation, more still want to spend a small amount of money to do big things, this is not impossible.
For example, Maikong didn't spend much money at the beginning, but it turned out that after the introduction, Maicon was now a main force on the right side of Ajax, and it was quite good.
Dezeu's performance was good, and he was quite outstanding in the Dutch League last season. At present, he has also attracted the attention of many domestic teams in the Netherlands. At the age of 22, he is also very in line with Ajax's positioning.
This Dutch native midfielder is definitely a type of good quality and low price, but at the same time know the roots.
In addition to Dezeu, there is another candidate in this plan, that is, a Côte d’ Ivoire midfielder who played for the Ukraine Donetsk Metallurgical Team, named Yaya Touré, and is also 22 years old this year. .
According to Ajax ’s scout report, the player came to Europe from Côte d’ Ivoire in 2001, first playing for Beveren in the Belgian second division, and with the help of his brother Kolo Touré in 2003 , Had tried training at Arsenal, but failed to stay.
In the summer of 2004, he transferred from Beveren to Ukraine ’s Donetsk metallurgical team for a value of 1.8 million euros. Played the UEFA Cup, but only stopped in the first round, was eliminated by Lazio three to zero in both rounds.
But in those two games, Yaya Touré made a good impression. In addition to the subsequent leagues, he showed a very good strength, able to compete in the midfield, midfield, and delay The midfield, even the central defender and many different positions, belong to a very comprehensive player.
Due to the poor performance of Shakhtar Donetsk this season, Yaya Touré also moved away from the team.
This player was spotted by Ajax scouts while inspecting Timoshchuk of Donetsk miners, but the price of the Shakhtar Donetsk team is not low, and Ajax The player's understanding is not enough, the only thing that is certain is that his physical fitness and height are very outstanding.
Dezeu's height is only 1.74 meters, but Yaya Touré is as high as 1.87 meters, and has the physical qualities of African players. This is what Ajax is currently seriously lacking.
However, judging from the signing plan, Ajax still preferred Dezeu.
The reason is very simple. This player is more familiar with the Dutch armour, and the price is relatively cheaper. Ajax is also very optimistic about him, thinking that he can play an important role in the team.

After reading the entire transfer plan, Yang Yang also understood the meaning of the management.
Introduce a powerful midfielder to further strengthen the team's midfield control, improve the team's frontcourt offensive firepower, and continue to build the team's offensive combination with Yangyang as the core.
The investment in the transfer market will not be too large, try to control between 3 million and 5 million euros, but many players in the team will renew the contract, including Pinar, Sneijder and Yang Yang.
Among them, the focus of renewal is Yang Yang.
When Yang Yang reviewed the transfer plan, Ali Van Eden also gave the club the sincerity on the contract renewal, that is, the team is willing to double Yang Yang's salary on the existing basis, and then double up.
The weekly salary of 20,000 euros after tax has reached the standard of Van der Vaart and Ibrahimović.
After the new round of renewal, only Sneijder can achieve the same salary grade as Yang Yang, and other players are inevitably slightly inferior, which means that Yang Yang will become the deserved number one star of Ajax. .
In addition, playing bonuses, goal bonuses and assist bonuses, as well as the team's performance bonuses, will be greatly improved on the existing basis. After full play is counted, Yang Yang's income will be much higher than now.
In addition to Ali Van Eden, the club ’s chairman Michael Van Prager also gave the club ’s commitment, saying that if Yang Yang is willing to stay, the team will do its best to train him and spare all resources to ensure that he is on the team. The position and tactical role ensure that he can continue this season's outstanding performance in the new season.
It should be said that after listening to the chips given by Ajax, Yang Yang did feel the sincerity.
But he did n’t think the club was losing money either. The reason is simple. As long as Yang Yang is doing well in the new season, when the club sells him later, he will get a higher income. That ’s not a few hundred thousand, even millions Things are up.
According to the current valuation of Yang Yang by the outside world, the lowest and lowest has reached 25 million euros, and everyone knows that it is absolutely impossible to persuade Ajax sellers at this price.
For these, Yang Yang also knows, but there is no break, the whole process is handed over to Laiola.
After more than an hour of talks, the two sides fully exchanged views with each other. Neither Yang Yang nor Laiola made a clear statement, and the two parties quickly concluded the first negotiation.
After leaving Yang Yang and Laiola, Ali Van Eden shook his head and sighed.
"This Italian vampire is not easy to deal with."
If Yang Yang is the only one, the club will understand and act reasonably. It is not too difficult to persuade him, but if there is one more Laiola, then the situation is much more complicated.
And it can be seen that Yang Yang still believes in Laiola.
But in any case, they have to continue to deal with Laiola.
Renewing Yang Yang is Ajax's top priority this summer.
