MTL - Starting with Real Madrid-Chapter 1255 When the old black shop meets the new black shop
Latest URL: I stayed in Madrid for a few days and dealt with all kinds of big and small things, mainly a series of renovations to the first team of Valdebebas this summer, and then there will be staff from the company going south to take over the rest Other things.
For a period of time to come, Carlo and Zidane will be responsible for everything here.
After Gao Shen explained all the main issues, and the negotiation with Real Madrid went smoothly, he set off northward to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, to watch Leeds United's Champions League quarter-finals first-leg match.
As a world famous coach, the arrival of Gao Shen has attracted the attention of Ajax.
CEO van der Sar even arranged for someone to pick him up at the airport and hosted a banquet for him. Leeds United technical director Borrell accompanied the team on the away game, accompanied by Ajax's football director, former Arsenal and Barcelona winger Overmars, and former Netherlands national team coach and now Ajax supervisory board member Danny Blind.
It is also interesting to say that the supervisory board of Ajax is really different from some supervisory boards of Bayern and other companies.
After the youth storm led by Ronald Koeman at the beginning of the century, led by Ibrahimovic, Sneijder, van der Vaart and others, Ajax's performance began to plummet, and the debts were high. The gap between the four major European leagues is widening.
No, today's Eredivisie ranks around tenth in European football, and sometimes even falls out.
In 2011, the Ajax veterans headed by the godfather of Barcelona Cruyinf launched a [Velvet Revolution] and established a five-member reform team, hoping to help Ajax come back to life.
At that time, this reform attracted a lot of attention in European football, including Overmars, wild boar Edgar Davis, Bergkamp, Junker, Frank De Boer, etc. Time to return to Ajax.
This five-member reform team is now the board of supervisors.
But soon, contradictions emerged.
When Cruyinff went back to celebrate his daughter's birthday, the other four members of the supervisory board appointed Cruyinff's deadly rival, Van Gaal, who had been dismissed from Bayern Munich, as the team's administrative director, and quickly reported to the board of directors for approval.
Cruyinff, of course, quit, so he sued directly, asking the court to cancel the appointment.
The final result was that Cruyinf won the court's decision, but he also left Ajax.
Subsequently, under the auspices of Van der Sar, Overmars, Davis, Junker, De Boer and other veterans, Ajax's reform is still progressing in an orderly manner. Until this season, Ajax Once again reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
Now, Davis has left Ajax, but Van der Sar and Overmars are still there.
The current Ajax youth army is also full of talents.
For example, Frankie de Jong, who is currently worth more than 80 million euros, Brazilian player David Neres, who is worth as much as 45 million euros, Van der Beek, who is worth 40 million euros, black goalkeeper Onana , Argentine defender Tagliafico, Ziyech, Tatic, Blind and so on.
The head coach is Erik Ten Hag.
It was Gao Shen who took the lead and signed De Ligt, who was not yet well-known.
In fact, Gao Shen wanted to pack Frankie De Jong and De Ligt together back then, but unfortunately, Frankie De Jong's situation was too complicated.
The 22-year-old Dutch midfielder was trained in the youth training camp jointly established by Wahlwijk and Willem II. Now Wahlwijk, who has fallen into the Dutch second league, holds a 40% stake in the youth academy. , William II holds 60% of the shares, and De Jong entered William II u17 in 2014 to continue training.
According to the agreement, when William II resells, Wahlwijk can get 40% of the transfer fee.
After staying in the William II youth training camp for more than a year, he was discovered by Ajax scouts, so he went from William II to the Ajax youth training camp. The transfer fee was a symbolic 1 euro.
】
Did you find out?
Wilhelm II is messing with Wahlwijk.
The transfer fee is only 1 euro, divided into 40%?
No, it's all for you!
But actually?
Of course William II was not so stupid, how could he only give 1 euro?
They signed another contract with Ajax, starting with five players including Frenkie de Jong, Zivkovic, Leslie Deza, Ruben Lihen and Lucas Anderson. Young player, loaned to Willem II for one season free of charge.
At the same time, 10% of the transfer fee received by Ajax for selling Frankie de Jong in the future belongs to Willem II.
Gao Shen actually wanted to pack De Ligt and Frankie De Jong at the beginning. Ajax’s asking price for Frankie De Jong was actually within the acceptable range of Gao Shen, but the legal adviser of Leeds United warned up.
Wahlwick is likely to protest, which will bring unnecessary trouble and controversy to Leeds United.
Leeds United had concerns in this regard, coupled with the fact that Ajax's offer was indeed a bit high at the time, in the end both Gao Shen and Leeds United decided to give up Frankie De Jong and only took De Ligt away.
From this transaction, it can actually be seen that the entire European football world, whether it is the top league or the second-level leagues such as the Eredivisie and the Portuguese Super League, is basically conducting capital operations.
As for the arrival of Gao Shen this time, the reason why Ajax has paid attention to it is that Leeds United is already a well-known upstart team in European football. Many people even think that this team has To further achieve the atmosphere of the giants.
Moreover, Leeds United attaches great importance to youth training. The scout network is all over the world, and young talents emerge in endlessly.
During the meal, Van der Sar made no secret that he hoped to have the opportunity to cooperate with Leeds United in youth training.
The Eredivisie League has no restrictions on non-EU players, and theoretically you can play as many as you want.
But there is a very weird rule that each non-EU player has to pay 200,000 euros, which is already a huge sum of money for many Eredivisie teams.
For a top league team like Leeds United, which earns hundreds of millions of dollars a year, it is of course a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Leeds United can arrange some talented players who are temporarily unable to play in their own youth training camp to Ajax for training.
Of course, this must pay a training fee.
Gao Shen is also very interested in this kind of cooperation, because now Leeds United is doing well, and it really needs such a partner.
In particular, using his advantage as a traveler in the last few years to recruit a few players for training with Ajax is also promising.
As for Ajax, with their current financial resources, it is simply not enough to support a huge youth training system and scouting network, and the selection criteria are limited. It is definitely a good thing if they can cooperate with a big team like Leeds United.
…
"I think it's a good idea."
Gao Shen set the tone for this matter, and looked at Borel again.
"Both of us can negotiate on this cooperation method and try to negotiate a long-term cooperation."
Borel was too familiar with Gao Shen, so he immediately understood Gao Shen's meaning.
This is to turn Ajax into a role similar to the Leeds United satellite club, and Ajax has a very rich youth training experience, which can even be said to be one of the best in the world, which is very rare.
Leeds United's youth training is indeed doing very well, but experience is still lacking. After all, it has only been a few years since the youth training was reorganized.
It is also good for Leeds United to learn more from Ajax.
Van der Sar, Overmars and others thought that Gao Shen was talking about cooperation in player training, and immediately introduced Ajax's rich experience in youth training, and even La Masia in Barcelona was Cruin Husband and others borrowed from Ajax's youth training and transplanted it.
Ajax can be called the Shaolin Temple of football.
The entire youth training system in Spain now has a very strong color of Ajax and Dutch football.
Even the goalkeeping coaching sessions come directly from Van Gaal's right-hand man, Fran Hawke.
It can be said that Dutch football and Ajax youth training have a profound impact on Spanish football.
Precisely because of this, Barcelona likes to buy Ajax players very much.
Last year, it was revealed that Barcelona looked at Ajax midfielder Frankie De Jong. How much was this player worth at that time?
7 million euros.
But after this season's Champions League group stage, his net worth has been soaring, and it jumped directly to 40 million euros, then to 60 million euros, and now it is 80 million euros.
In Gao Shen's previous life, Ajax reached the semi-finals, and Frankie De Jong was worth 85 million euros.
Barcelona's final transfer fee for signing Frankie De Jong was 75 million euros plus a floating clause of 11 million euros, paid in installments over five years.
On the flight from Madrid to Amsterdam, Gao Shen took a look at the current list of Ajax first-team players and the situation of the players in the youth academy, but found no suitable candidates for Leeds United.
For example, Neres, Ziyech, and Van der Beek, who are very popular now, are all worth 40 million, or even more than 50 million euros.
Tadic is quite surprising. After playing in the Premier League for a few years, he was fine at the beginning, and then gradually lost his luster. However, after returning to Ajax this season, the Serbian all-rounder immediately showed his strength. splendor.
It is a pity that the age of 30 has restricted him, and it is difficult to move forward in his entire career.
Looking at the entire European football world, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com is actually as capable as Tadic, but lacks some players who have arrived. There are really many.
Of course, Tadic can play in Ajax this season, which is already very rare. How many players have not had the opportunity like him.
Ajax's youth training player Mazraoui is another one who impressed Gao Shen this season. This right back was originally a midfielder with good skills and excellent passing ability. He was transformed into a right back. Just shine, coupled with Captain Feltman's serious injury and long-term absence, he is now the main force on the right side of Ajax.
In the database of Leeds United University, the evaluation of this right back is also very high. It is the key factor for Ajax to play bravely in the Champions League this season, especially the right wing formed by him and Ziyech. The source of Ajax's attack.
And the current worth of this player is about 15 million euros.
The reason why Gao Shen came to Amsterdam to watch the game in person was because he wanted to inspect Mazraoui on the spot.
At the same time, I also want to see what kind of sparks will be created when the old black shop meets the new black shop?
