Chapter 73

PS: I have something to do today, so let's release the update in the afternoon first.

There is a long causeway on the coastline in the south of Monaco. At the end of the long causeway is a famous seafood restaurant. On the second night of Monaco's half League, Monaco's whole team's Christmas dinner is held here.

When the players came to the seafood restaurant with their families dressed smartly, they found that situ Yunbing was still wearing the club's warm down jacket and couldn't help laughing at him.

Situ Yunbing didn't mind this joke. Besides, he wanted to have some leisure during the holiday. However, he didn't go out of kapdai's single apartment today. He had a good rest all day. He didn't have time to go shopping at all.

Although the club's Christmas dinner in Monaco is not as grand and slightly luxurious as in some famous hotels in the city, you can taste delicious oysters, fresh sea fish and lobster in this seafood restaurant, I'm afraid only the most authentic local people will know that tasting delicious food here is far more enjoyable than eating goose liver truffle snail in a hotel in the city.

There are many young players in the team, so most of them just bring a female partner, while some older players bring their wives and children. Coaches basically come with their wives. Situ Yunbing himself is not lonely and has long been used to it.

The restaurant specially vacated an open space. De bondan delivered a speech with a microphone in high spirits, which not only summarized the performance of the team in the past half season and looked forward to the future, but also wished everyone a happy new year by taking the opportunity of Christmas.

After his speech, situ Yunbing was invited to the stage. In the warm applause of everyone, situ Yunbing only said one word.

"Now we can forget football and enjoy life. After the holiday, we'll talk about football. Merry Christmas, everyone!"

It's not that situ Yunbing is not good at speaking, but that he used to annoy the leaders when he was working near the holiday. Especially after entering the holiday, he didn't want any work to disturb himself.

Now that we have entered the winter break, why bother to talk about work?

What should be said, bundan has said, what should not be said, and there is no need to say now.

When the dinner started, everyone drank and changed glasses, enjoyed a delicious seafood meal and drank the top wine from Bordeaux. Situ Yunbing was actually very satisfied with his life in Monaco.

Although it is a small country, it can't be any smaller, but it has all kinds of internal organs. On the one hand, Japanese restaurants, South American flavor, Italian restaurants and so on can be found in the city. In addition to fresh seafood, it can be satisfied except that it is difficult to eat authentic Chinese food for a while.

When everyone raised their glasses to celebrate, situ Yunbing found that leko, a Croatian player who came alone, was not in high spirits. He called leko outside when everyone ate almost and began to sing and dance with music.

Lecco didn't look very well at the end of the game yesterday, but because the team was celebrating winning the League half-way championship and it was late in the end, situ Yunbing didn't talk to him.

Standing in front of the Long embankment fence, the sea breeze swept over, which made the slightly drunk situ Yunbing sober. When the light of the lighthouse was reflected regularly, he turned his head slightly and didn't open his eyes to avoid direct light, but it also reflected the sea water into a sparkling and beautiful scene.

LECO stood next to situ Yunbing. They leaned sideways and elbowed on the railing of the Long embankment fence. Situ Yunbing asked LECO gently: "I see you seem a little unhappy. I found it at the end of the game yesterday. I wonder if it's because I replaced you in the half game yesterday. I hope you don't misunderstand it's not because of your poor performance, It's the tactical needs of the team. If someone puts the responsibility of losing the ball on you or directly criticizes you, I'll defend you and I'll tell those people how far you can get. "

LECO had no doubt about situ Yunbing's determination and sincerity to defend himself. He looked hesitant and said after a long time: "it's because I was replaced, but it's not entirely for this reason."

Situ Yunbing said solemnly, "I think we can be honest directly. If there is a problem, we should actively solve it."

Lecco has always been a fan of situ Yunbing. At least he doesn't support situ Yunbing like young players such as menggonggu and Moro.

Young players like to support situ Yunbing. The reason is very simple. Situ Yunbing has changed their career and brought them great opportunities. It is exaggerated to say that situ Yunbing helped them realize the first step of their dream!

However, Lecco is not a firm supporter of situ Yunbing. As a member of the team, he can best understand the subtle situation.

Situ Yunbing does not simply trust young players, nor does he aggressively clean up veterans. At least the four veterans he trusts most in the team are obvious: Modesto, Simic, Perez and Merian.

As for Lecco, it's not on this list.

Whether forced by the situation or situ Yunbing did expect veterans to stabilize the army, leko's own importance was not so prominent.

At the beginning, he had a fantasy that situ Yunbing gave him equal trust with others. However, with the stability of situ Yunbing's handsome position, nkuru's opportunities increased and leko's opportunities decreased accordingly, which is a very obvious signal.

Leko thought about it and decided to be calm. He said to situ Yunbing: "in the boss's heart, nkuru is the future of the team, and I'm not."

Situ Yunbing didn't expect Lecco to say such a sentence. The most important thing is that Lecco's tone doesn't have any uncomfortable emotions. Both of them are rational and calm. It's also good. At least, everyone can accept the reality when communicating.

Situ Yunbing sincerely said to Lecco: "I can only say that if you say that the future is two or three years later, nkuru must be the future of the team. You are not. But if you only look at the next six months and one year, he still needs to grow, and it is difficult to be completely independent. Your importance is not lower than him."

A pale smile appeared on LECO's face.

Nkuru is young, but he is 28 years old. If he wants to share playing time with nkuru, where should he go when nkuru can completely squeeze him out?

Lecco's age is very important. For most players, it is almost the end of their career. Fake shooting gets a point and a 3-5-year contract at the age of 29, so he should consider or retire directly after fulfilling this contract.

Lecco made up his mind and said to situ Yunbing: "boss, there are rumors that Saint Etienne wants to introduce me in the transfer market recently. If it is true, I hope the club can let me leave when the winter transfer window opens."

Situ Yunbing looked stunned. Unexpectedly, leko wanted to leave the team directly!

No!

Situ Yunbing immediately advised: "you know the current situation of the team. We are very hopeful to win the championship this season. We have been working in this direction. Your playing time may be reduced, but you will not directly become a substitute. I can guarantee that!"

Lecco shook his head and smiled bitterly: "boss, I will be 29 years old by next summer. If other teams want to introduce me and can give me a stable long-term contract, I will certainly choose to sign this contract. As you know, Monaco's performance has improved, but our financial situation will not completely improve all at once, and for a veteran like me, I don't think the club can be generous. "

Situ Yunbing fell silent when he heard the speech.

He did not consider this level.

Monaco cut its salary expenditure by 40% in the summer. Because of the poor performance in the past three years and many players have nowhere to go, they can only sign a new contract.

But now the team is in good condition. Will Monaco raise their salary back?

not always!

For players who perform well, have potential and the club hopes to lock in for a long time, the contract must be very generous, which can be regarded as a reward. However, for players who are not absolute main players and are before the age of 30, I'm afraid the club is really like what he said: they can't be generous!

Debondan has his personal style, that is, he is very strict in financial control!

One of the important reasons why he was invited by Prince Albert to be president of Monaco is that he hopes to improve the financial situation of the club through his operation!

He did a good job. Monaco's debt of more than 70 million US dollars may be directly reduced by more than 40 million this season!

If the team wins the league title, situ Yunbing has no doubt that debondan, who is good at dancing in the capital market, can completely reverse Monaco's financial crisis in just one year. He only needs to sign a few sponsorship contracts.

Lecco wants to go, not because situ Yunbing forces him to go, but because of his career situation. If he goes at this time, he may still get a good contract. From next summer, the treatment of the contract may gradually decline, because too many clubs are stingy with 30-year-old left and right players, unless they are top players!

In the French League one, more attention is paid to the cultivation of young players, and young people have more living space, because they also belong to the club's investment in the future and have the attribute of excess return from realization. On the contrary, veterans basically do not have this attribute.

LECO also wants to bring better security to his future life.

No mistake.

Situ Yunbing takes his heart to heart. If he is Lecco, he will think more about his personal future than working hard for the club. He is five or six years younger. Maybe he will do so, but in the later stage of his career, the cruelty of reality will force him to make the most rational and self-interest decision!
