Chapter 165： Unexpected

Jin Taige walked towards the club office building, he was a little puzzled: now that he has made an appointment with Woodward at 9 o'clock to discuss things in the office, why is it now more than 8:30, Woodward anxiously called to ask ?

Although Woodward didn't say urgency on the phone, Kintag was able to hear it, and Woodward seemed a little anxious. So he quickened his pace and quickly entered the building and came to Woodward's office.

As soon as he walked into the office, he found that Woodward was standing on the sofa waiting for him long ago. When Jintaige came in, Woodward stepped forward and closed the office door, then sat on the sofa.

Kintag was sitting opposite him, looking at Woodwood with anxiety on his face: "Ed, what's wrong with you? Aren't we talking about team building today? I think you're a little uneasy."

Woodward sighed softly: "I was going to talk to you about the team building today, but ... something unexpected happened yesterday afternoon. I was going to call you at night, but I was afraid of interrupting You, that's why I called you to the office today. "

Gintag was very puzzled: "Ed, what really happened that made you so anxious?"

Woodward stood up, took a cup, and poured himself a cup of hot water. "Streford came to me yesterday afternoon."

"Streford? He is ..." The name sounded familiar, but Ginteg couldn't remember who it was.

"He's Rooney's agent," Woodward explained.

"Oh, I remember, it's the skinny monkey, right, I've seen him once, but I'm not very impressed with him. That person looks insidious, and smiles at him, but he hides his knife in it." Jintaige told the truth.

Woodward nodded. "You're like me, I think so."

"Ed, what did he come to you for?"

"He said Rooney is having some difficulties in the team right now and needs my help."

Kintag frowned slightly: "If Rooney encounters difficulties in the team, he should come to me, not club officials."

Woodward smiled bitterly: "I think so too. But Strefford said that his players encountered some unfair treatment and wanted to talk to me."

Jin Taige raised the water glass: "Is he talking about Rooney being suspended? In fact, Rooney is completely responsible for this, because his impulse caused the team to be passive. We spent a lot of money yesterday afternoon. It took his strength to reduce his six suspensions to four. Why is Streatford still not satisfied? "

"That's not what Streford is talking about," Woodward waved. "He said to me that Wayne Rooney is being treated badly on the team."

Hearing this sentence, Jin Taige suddenly had a clever mind. He closed his eyes and thought of something.

In the parallel world of his previous life, Rooney proposed a salary increase to the club in the winter of 2014. His request at that time was 300,000 pounds a week, which was half more than the 200,000 pounds per week of the team's highest salary Van Persie!

Because Manchester United was at the bottom and there was a shortage of major generals, the good old man Moyes finally agreed to Rooney's salary increase request.

Now this thing happened to me!

Gintag opened his eyes sharply: "Is Streatford asking the club to raise Rooney's salary?"

Woodward froze, then nodded admiringly: "Tiger, you are so smart. Streford did raise his salary, and the salary requirements are outrageous."

"He wants £ 300,000 a week?"

"You guessed it right!" Woodward slaps. "This abominable Streford, he actually offered 300,000 pounds? Why didn't he rob the bank! Now the club's highest paid Van Persie is only 20 It's only 10,000 pounds, and the Manchester United veterans of Giggs and Carrick behind them are only around 160,000 pounds a week, and Rooney's weekly salary of 150,000 pounds is already very high. "

Gintag nodded: "People I signed in this summer did not earn more than 100,000 a week. I signed the highest paid weekly Icardi, Naingoland and Debrau, and the weekly salary was only 90,000 pounds It's just that Canter, Mahrez and Marshall, the main players, only earn about 50,000 a week. "

After Woodward was angry, he was a little depressed: "But Strefford told me that there are already clubs that have offered Rooney a high salary. If Manchester United cannot meet Rooney's requirements, Rooney does not rule out the possibility of transferring and leaving. ! "

Jintaige didn't say anything. He held the water glass, drank the warm water in the glass with one sip, and left the water glass on the table. He slowly said to Woodward: "For the current Manchester United, This salary situation is more reasonable. If we get enough championships this summer, then it should be appropriate to give players a proper salary increase. However, it must be within a reasonable range! If you blindly increase the salary ~ www. novelhall.com ~ will only cause greater conflicts for the team! "

"If Rooney raises £ 300,000, what about Mahrez, who is also a starter? What about midfield defensive core Kanter? The team's core goalkeeper De Gea? Are these core players aiming at 300,000? Alignment? If anyone's salary is low, will they be dissatisfied? "

"Now our club is in a new and old phase. In the next few years, there will be people coming and going. If Rooney's salary rises to 300,000, then every new player will look at him in the future. Salary, as a benchmark for their own contract, the club will be passive at all times! Otherwise, it is not signing players, or it is ridiculously high! At that time, the club does not have to wait for the economic crisis, regardless of the operating conditions, but only the player ’s salary Amazing! "

Woodward was in a difficult position: "Tiger, I understand what you said, but if we don't raise Rooney's salary, what should we do if Rooney proposes a transfer?"

Kintag thought for a moment: "Let ’s do this, I believe Streatford will come to you again in the next few days. When he comes to you, you will tell him that the salary increase can be discussed, but only a small increase. The salary is definitely not 300,000, or even equal to Van Persie; and the salary increase is not the current one. After the end of the season, the club will adjust the salary uniformly for all players. "

"What if Strafford doesn't agree?" Woodward asked.

"If he doesn't agree?" Jintaige stood up at this moment, he came to the window, watched the cold wind outside the window, and said slowly and firmly, "If he doesn't agree, his players are always at any time. You can leave Manchester United! "
