Star Card System

This year is 2020, and Xia Xing's contract will expire in two years.

Xia Xing is not in a hurry, but Manchester United is.

Manchester United can do without anyone now, but it cannot do without Xia Xing.

From the night of the Europa League final, Solskjaer found Xia Xing to discuss the renewal.

But Xia Xing did not express his opinion.

Solskjaer was not good at pursuing him, so he simply asked the club to come forward to negotiate again.

The club directly found Xia Xing's agent Mendes and politely discussed the player's contract renewal.

And Mendes' answer is very Chinese.

"Let's see."

This "let's see" made Manchester United a little confused.

Do you want to renew the contract?

In the end, Solskjaer found Xia Xing privately and asked about the renewal again.

And Xia Xing's answer was also very firm.

He made several requests.

"First, Pogba must leave.

"I still say that if he doesn't leave, I will leave!

"Second, I want to see the team's ambitions.

"The signings must be worthy of the team's goals!

"Third, I hope the team can make plans to upgrade the training facilities.

"Our training environment and equipment are too old!"

Solskjaer conveyed Xia Xing's three requirements to the management word for word.

At the board meeting, when several senior executives of the management heard these words, they frowned.

They didn't like any of these three questions.

The first brother question, Pogba must go?

Even if you are a superstar, you can't always provoke the management, right?

You always criticize this player management problem, isn't it too much?

Last summer, when Xia Xing proposed to choose one of the two, Manchester United's management was already somewhat dissatisfied.

But due to face and Xia Xing's strength, they finally compromised.

Now Xia Xing has raised this issue again, and the club is naturally very unhappy.

The second question, do you want to increase the strength of signings?

What a joke, is our strength weak? Not at all!

And our team is a little bloated, and we have to rent out some young people.

Now our team is as strong as the six-time champion, and there is no need to continue to strengthen.

50 million is enough.

The third question, upgrade the training facilities?

What a joke, you are just a player, do you know how much this upgrade will cost?

At least several million.

Now we can make do with it, just stick to it.

The club management does not intend to solve any of the three problems.

However, they still made enough gestures.

The sports department manager visited Xia Xing in person with a smile on his face.

"I will explain the three questions you raised to you in person today.

"The first is the problem of Pogba.

"Now Pogba is injured again, we can't sell him at all?

"Even if you hate him, the club wants to sell him, at least we have to wait until he recovers from his injury,

"At least we have to sell him for a good price, don't you think so?

"The second is the team transfer fee, I think there is no problem.

"I have asked the transfer department to find Solskjaer to get the transfer intention list,

"We are also in contact with the other party's agent. If it is appropriate,

"The club will definitely increase the transfer fee, I promise you.

"The third is to upgrade the training facilities. This is a big project and we need some time.

"Especially now that the global economy is in a serious downturn, our club is greatly affected.

"But don't worry, we have already started drafting the upgrade plan and are preparing to implement the upgrade plan in several stages,

"We will definitely speed up.

"This is the answer to the three questions you raised,

"What do you think? "

Looking at the fake smile of the sports manager opposite, Xia Xing had a blank expression.

Haha.

You think I'm easy to fool, right?

Does this kind of evasive talk make sense?

Pogba's injury problem is indeed a problem, I tolerate it.

But the issue of signings is completely a cliché.

What do you mean by "if it's appropriate", with your stingy style, can it be appropriate?

Now Xia Xing can see that the club doesn't trust Solskjaer that much.

Look at the transfer fee given to the head coach before, and then look at it now, it's not at the same level at all.

It seems that Manchester United still doesn't regard Solskjaer as the future of the team.

I heard from Mendes that the Manchester United club is even privately investigating the candidates for the new head coach.

A Europa League title and a Premier League title can't satisfy Manchester United at all The ambition of the management.

Even if this ambition is not proportional to the club's investment.

As for the third question, it is not a cliché, but an empty talk.

Although Xia Xing stayed at Manchester United for a short time before, he did not train with the first team too deeply.

The poor training conditions of the reserve team are understandable.

But after returning from Leicester City, he found that the training conditions of Manchester United's first team were not much better.

Even worse than Leicester City.

At least Leicester City Club cooperated with the University of Leicester and built a lot of high-tech training facilities, as well as various massage equipment and rehabilitation equipment, which are all very good.

Xia Xing's company has some business cooperation with many clubs, and he has also visited many wealthy clubs.

As a superstar, wealthy clubs are naturally happy to show the best part of the team to Xia Xing.

After all, football is round, and everything can happen. Xia Xing may play for his own team one day, perhaps because of an attraction and goodwill.

Xia Xing visited Real Madrid's training base and was amazed.

The luxury of Real Madrid's various training rooms is simply amazing. They can even ensure that every player can have one-on-one individual training and rehabilitation treatment, which is great.

Speaking of rehabilitation treatment, AC Milan's medical laboratory is even more respectable. There is even the best medical team in international football, and the test reports and rehabilitation suggestions they issue are absolutely ceiling-level.

When it comes to high technology, we must talk about Bayern's tactical training room. They really have a system similar to the FIFA game, which analyzes the competitor's video in great detail to help players interpret the habits and characteristics of each opponent, which is of great help.

When it comes to youth training, Barcelona is the top level in the world. La Masia Youth Training Camp is worthy of being a football festival for countless teenagers. There, in addition to the cultivation of football skills and knowledge, there are also many educational improvement contents such as psychological education and personality improvement. The professional room layout, equipment use and coach configuration have benefited the teenagers a lot. As long as you have been in La Masia, you will definitely gain a lot.

However, Manchester United's training base is shabby and not at the level of a giant club.

After listening to the explanation of the club's sports manager, Xia Xing said nothing more.

Regarding the topic of contract renewal, we will not discuss it for the time being.

Contract renewal? Let's wait and see... (End of this chapter)
