Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Zorc said this with some sadness. They discovered Wang Po's potential and ability very early, and they came with sincerity and a big contract.

Unfortunately, Wang Po had no intention of transferring at that time.

Now, his value has soared, and the competitive pressure on Dortmund has increased exponentially.

Whether it is the amount of the transfer fee or the club's influence on the players, there is a big gap.

Despite this, Zorc is still here.

"I don't think anyone can refuse an invitation from a wealthy family." Wang Po said with a smile.

"I don't know, is it possible that Dortmund will be your next stop?" Zorc said, changing the topic.

Wang Po's expression became serious and he said, "Of course, my original promise is still valid. As long as I can reach an agreement with the club, I am willing to go to the Westfield Stadium, which I have longed for for a long time."

"Of course I'm happy to take you to Germany." Zorc said with satisfaction. "You are Mr. Tuchel's cherished treasure."

…

The negotiation process is bound to not go smoothly.

The financial crisis of Benfica, which won the double championship, has not been completely resolved. Therefore, if you want to poach the core of the team, the transfer fee is still a relatively important factor.

Paris Saint-Germain's big spenders are irresistible.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern, and Manchester United have a profound impact.

Chelsea, Manchester City, the Old Lady and the Milan duo each have their own characteristics.

This was a tug-of-war of negotiations that spanned half a month.

Hamburg was involved every step of the way.

At the club level, they are more inclined to make this big deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

The wealthy oil dad is tyrannical and not short of money. The transfer fee of 80 million euros is enough to run the Benfica club for two seasons.

Once this deal is completed, Wang Po will also be the most expensive transfer fee in the entire Portuguese Super League history (note that in July 2019, Felix joined Atletico Madrid for a transfer fee of 126 million euros)

Such a transfer fee is also prohibitive for wealthy clubs like Huang Saren. It is not due to financial factors, but more importantly, they are unwilling to spend such a high price to gamble.

If it's about 50 million to 60 million euros, they are willing to scratch this lottery ticket. The transfer fee of 80 million euros is too expensive and they have to give up.

After the tug-of-war negotiations, the only clubs still on the negotiating table are Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund.

Each of the four teams has its own characteristics.

Paris Saint-Germain relies on financial resources to take the initiative in transfers, and the progress with Benfica is the fastest.

While Chelsea and Manchester City are equally financially strong, relying on the Premier League as a top league platform, their influence cannot be underestimated.

In two aspects, Dortmund is incomparable to the three clubs, but it also has its own advantages, such as an excellent player training system, a relaxed training environment, and of course, a gentleman's agreement with the players. These are all negotiation weights.

The transfer deadline is approaching, and there is not much time left for Wang Po to make a choice.

"Can we have separate negotiations for a three-way meeting?"

This is Zorc's request.

After consulting Wang Po's opinions, Benfica Club, Wang Po, Hamburg, and Zorc sat at the negotiation table.

"Oh, gentlemen, before we start the negotiation, I want to make it clear that this will be the last negotiation between the Dortmund Club on Mr. Wang Po's transfer. Regardless of the result or not, I will fly back to Germany after today."

Zorc said straight to the point.

"Okay, we understand what Mr. Zorc means, and we can start now." Tom nodded.

"First of all, I want to know if Mr. Wang Po has any objections to the five-year contract we offered with an annual salary of 5 million euros after tax."

Zorc looked at Wang Po and asked.

Wang Po didn't even think about saying, "As I said before, I abide by the gentleman's agreement between us. As long as the club releases him, I am willing to sign the contract."

After the words fell, the hamburger next to him had no intention of expressing his opinion.

This is different from the previous multi-party talks.

Zorc still remembers that when faced with invitations from Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, and Manchester City, the Hamburg Lion opened his mouth aggressively, draining the bottom line of the representatives of the three clubs step by step. His methods were so fierce that it made people laugh. Liang is definitely a veteran in the transfer market.

In the eight years he has been in the position of transfer director, he has never found an agent with such terrible methods.

Of course, throughout the entire process, Hamburg remained tolerant of Dortmund. Otherwise, with the Dortmund club's offer, they would have been kicked out long ago.

Mr. Zorc showed a kind smile, turned to Tom, and said, "Okay, I wonder if Benfica Club is dissatisfied with our offer?"

"The gap between Mr. Zorc's transfer fee of 40 million euros and 80 million euros is really too big. Although I personally hope that Wang Po will be taken away by you, in this position, I must be responsible for the interests of the club. You and I They are all eating this bowl of rice, you should understand what I mean.”

Are Dortmund clubs insincere?

No, 40 million euros is already the highest signing offer in the history of the Hornets.

With this offer, Zorc was under tremendous pressure from all aspects, not to mention that he had a contract that was close to the team's maximum salary.

Giving a new player who is only 18 years old a contract close to a fixed salary, if not handled properly, the locker room will explode, and the mess will be a time bomb that can directly cause the management to resign.

Zorc nodded to show that he understood Tom's difficulties, paused and continued, "Of course, today I brought a new offer, which will also be the last offer of Dortmund Club. The transfer fee of 40 million euros remains unchanged. The contract can be added that 15% of the proceeds of the next transfer fee of Wang Pei will belong to Benfica Club. I don't know if your club can accept this condition."

Zorc took three days to convince the management of this offer, which is also the maximum limit within his ability.

In order to get Wang Pei, he has tried his best.

This contract also shows the greatest sincerity of Dortmund.

Tom thought for a moment and said, "I will also try my best to convince our management."

I can feel the sincerity of Dortmund Club, but this is not something Tom can decide alone. After all, 80 million euros is real money, and Dortmund's 15% share of the second transfer in the future is just a blank check.

No one knows what the future development trajectory of Wang Pei will be?

It is not impossible to fall suddenly. Such a situation has also occurred in history. Once this happens, Benfica Club will lose 40 million euros in transfer fees.

Besides, although Dortmund Club is known as a black shop in Europe, it is unknown how much Wang Pei can sell for the second transfer fee?

Even if it is 100 million euros, Benfica will only get 15 million euros in profit.

This is also a gap from 80 million euros.
