From coaching Real Madrid

As soon as the news of Mbappe's contract extension came out, it quickly aroused reactions from European football.

On the day the French TV station's report came out, Mbappe arrived in Leeds, England from Paris, France. Accompanied by his agent's mother and lawyer, he went to the AXA Center to formally negotiate a contract extension with Leeds United.

The two parties have fully communicated on the contract renewal issue before, so this negotiation went very smoothly.

That night, Leeds United announced simultaneously on its official website, Twitter and other channels that the team officially renewed Mbappe's contract.

However, Leeds United did not disclose the details of Mbappe's contract, including a weekly salary of 150,000 pounds, and a series of other complex contract terms. One of them is worth noting, that is, during the contract period, as long as the team has

If they are willing to pay a transfer fee of 250 million euros for Mbappe, Leeds United must release him unconditionally.

This was actually the biggest dispute between the two parties before the contract renewal.

Mbappe's mother insisted that it was 200 million euros, but Leeds United first offered 300 million euros, but later dropped it to 250 million euros, and then the two parties signed the contract.

In other words, in the next few years, as long as a team is willing to pay a transfer fee of 250 million euros for Mbappe, they can take him away from Leeds United at any time.

…

As the dust has settled on Mbappe's contract extension, a transfer that has attracted much attention in European football has failed to take place.

But the day after Mbappe signed, Leeds United and Manchester City simultaneously announced that they had sold local center Harry Kane to Manchester City for a high price of 150 million euros.

This is another core player sold by Leeds United after Van Dijk, and it is also a local flag.

This transfer once again triggered heated discussions in English football.

Leeds United fans are also quite dissatisfied with this. They believe that after selling Kante, Leeds United sold Harry Kane. Who else can the team rely on to score goals in the new season?

But before Leeds United fans protested, the British media had already taken the lead in revealing the inside story.

Manchester City paid Harry Kane a weekly salary of up to 300,000 pounds, which is three times Harry Kane's weekly salary at Leeds United.

At the same time, the Yorkshire Post also made a special report, believing that after Manchester City signed Harry Kane, they increased the team's maximum annual salary to 300,000 pounds, which is bound to trigger a new trend within the Manchester City team.

A wave of salary increases.

Needless to say, players such as Gareth Bale, Hazard and Suarez, the team's top stars, David Silva and De Bruyne, two players with a weekly salary of 220,000 pounds, are bound to also

One more rise.

Currently, Manchester City's salary expenditure ranks first in the Premier League and third among European teams. If it increases again, it may be higher than Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The Yorkshire Post commented that Leeds United's sale of Harry Kane was a wise choice. The team must take the path of rational management and can no longer gamble as it did at the beginning of the century.

The shadow of bankruptcy has always lingered over Leeds United's head. Even though the results have improved now, White Rose fans still have lingering fears.

After analysis by several media outlets, including the Yorkshire Post, Leeds United fans have gradually begun to accept the club's operation, but are a little worried about the new season.

However, after Leeds United returned to the UK, they ushered in the Community Shield match on August 4.

At Wembley Stadium in London, since Leeds United won the Premier League and FA Cup last season, this year's Community Shield has become Leeds United against Premier League runner-up Manchester City.

Both sides were making final preparations for the new season, and in the end it was a one-on-one draw.

According to the competition system, the two sides directly entered the penalty shootout, and Leeds United narrowly defeated Manchester City 5-4.

Vardy scored Leeds United's only goal.

It is worth mentioning that Leeds United hit all five penalty kicks.

…

Winning the Community Shield greatly diluted the impact of Harry Kane's transfer, and Harry Kane did not appear in the Community Shield.

Leeds United has also begun to carefully prepare for the Premier League journey in the new season.

This time the team's first game of the new season is against West Ham United at home.

While the club is preparing intensively at the AXA Center, the transfer market continues to advance in an orderly manner.

Harry Kane's move to Manchester City has greatly promoted the progress of some transfers.

For example, Manchester United, which was originally looking for Harry Kane, suddenly changed its target and turned to Dele Alli.

This 22-year-old native English genius is hailed as the future England star, and everyone is optimistic that he will become the midfield leader of world football in the future.

The contract renewal negotiations between Leeds United and Alli were like a soap opera, and they lasted on and off for half a year.

Almost the whole world knows that Dele Alli is leaving, but where he is going is unknown.

Now, this soap opera has finally come to an end.

The answer is revealed: Manchester United!

The Red Devils paid a sky-high price of 120 million euros for this local talent and successfully signed this future top midfielder.

Chelsea, which failed to compete with Manchester United for Dele Alli, immediately turned their guns and attacked Mane.

Originally, Leeds United and Bayern were negotiating Mane's transfer, and even Mane himself thought that the transfer to Bayern was a certainty.

Unexpectedly, Chelsea suddenly made an offer and provided Mane with a weekly salary of 300,000 pounds, which far exceeded the treatment offered by Bayern Munich.

Chelsea also offered Mane a sky-high price of 110 million euros and successfully intercepted Mane from Bayern.

Before the Premier League was about to ignite the flames, Leeds United once again made two blockbuster transfers, which immediately aroused heated discussions around the world.

If Dele Alli's departure was psychologically prepared, then Mane's departure had already been foreshadowed after Mbappe's contract extension was successful.

It has been widely rumored by the outside world that Gao Shen said that Mbappe's most suitable position is on the left wing.

Now that Mbappe has renewed his contract, it is natural that Mane, who occupies the left wing position, will leave the team to make room for him.

Last season's Premier League and FA Cup double champions, Champions League runner-up, sold six main players in one summer, of which only Dele Alli was considered a rotation, but this was enough to break the bones.

After completing the two transactions of Alli and Mane, Leeds United announced that they had closed the transfer door and rejected outside purchases.

Even now, there are still teams that are eagerly eyeing Leeds United players.

…

Six players were exchanged for a transfer fee of more than 700 million euros, which caused Leeds United to once again cause a big earthquake.

Although Leeds United has been selling people in the past few years, and the income from selling people has indeed continued to rise every year, it has never been as outrageous as this season.

You know, if you add Ederson in January, Leeds United's total sales revenue in 2018 will exceed 800 million euros.

This is simply an astronomical figure.

What's even more outrageous is that everyone and all teams are clearly aware that the value of Leeds United players is constantly rising.

Also a deep-lying midfielder, how much was Brozovic worth when he joined Chelsea in 2016?

60 million euros.

But now where is Fabinho?

70 million euros, increased.

When winger Mahrez moved to Manchester City last summer, he was worth 70 million euros, but Mane moved to Chelsea this year and his worth was as high as 110 million euros, which is also an increase.

Not to mention that when Maguire moved to Manchester United last year, the transfer fee was 100 million euros, but now Van Dijk has soared to 150 million euros, a huge increase.

Not only did the value of the players skyrocket when they were sold, but according to Deloitte statistics, Leeds United's overall value soared after their outstanding performance last season.

Even after selling several core players this summer, based on the current lineup, Leeds United's overall value still ranks third in the Premier League.

Among them, one Mbappe is worth 200 million euros.

In other words, Leeds United is still a strong Premier League team.

…

Gao Shen is not too interested in the value of the team, he is more looking forward to it.

It is said to be more than 800 million, but in fact he can't get it at all now.

The reason is very simple. The money is paid in installments. Although there is no arrears, some installments are as long as five years, which is really a scam.

But there is nothing you can do. Before selling someone, you were the uncle. After the person is sold, the one who owes the debt is the uncle!

Of course, these cooperative clubs will not default on the payments due. After all, if it didn't work, they would have already started selling people.

They are all well-known and wealthy teams. The scandal of non-repayment of debts has had a great impact on the brand, so they have to pay with gritted teeth.

Now, Su Qing uses various methods to withdraw funds from Leeds United every year to invest in domestic high-end manufacturing and new energy companies. From now on, Gao Shen will buy mines abroad through a joint venture with Linde Generations.

In the past few years, Gao Shen's domestic company has invested in wineries and cherries in Chile. The business has been very prosperous and he has established enough contacts. Next, he will start investing in lithium mines in Chile.

You know, Chile, Argentina and Bolivia account for half of the world's lithium resources, as well as Australia and Africa.

In Gao Shen's view, this is not only supporting the domestic new energy industry, but also seeking a way out for himself.

All these were left to Su Qing to take care of. Gao Shen was like a hands-off shopkeeper, focusing solely on the football career that he was interested in, especially Leeds United, which was about to start the new season.

Before the Community Shield Cup, Gao Shen went to Wembley Stadium to watch and did find some problems.

Even though he was unwilling to interfere with Pochettino's formation, Gao Shen still believed that he should point it out.

As for what many people outside are worried about, Gao Shen is not worried at all about Leeds United's lineup for the new season.
