Chapter 86 Future Captain
(Congratulations to netizens on adding dragon and phoenix twins. Upgrading to a father is an important stage in life. I wish the baby a healthy growth and happiness forever)
In a bar in Masbrac, a small city near the border between the Netherlands and Belgium, Jiang Mu and the villain Van Bomel in his memory, met for the first time.
Many people in the Alkmaar club and coaching staff have different opinions about the introduction of Van Bommel, a player. Van Bomel is a late player. He started his career at the age of 16 in Sita de Fortuna near his hometown. Van Bommel has been here for five years, but he has been silent. Wen, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is enough to show how much his qualifications and talent are.
This is not the main reason why these people disagree. Another important reason is that Van Bomel, known as "umbrella brother", has a hot temperament. On the court, he will fight with his opponent if he doesn't agree. It is common to get a yellow card and a red card. Such a thorny introduction to the team is definitely a hidden danger in the locker room.
These Jiang Mu don't need to be investigated, and it is clearer that in his memory of his previous life, Van Bomel publicly criticized the national team coach Van Basten, and said that he would not play for the national team led by Van Basten again, and fight with his opponents. In Bayern, he also fought with teammate Dimoshuk.
However, these flaws are not hidden. Van Bomer is not only a villain, but also a tough guy. He will never give up. He is ambitious and has a appeal. He is more suitable to be a captain than Altidore from the Eerste Divisie. Altidore is old, and Jiang Mu intends to cultivate Van Bommel to be the captain of Alkmaar.
In addition, Van Bomer is strong, runs actively, and has a strong overall view and long-range shooting. He is definitely a world-class midfielder. Now he will not lose from any angle from the introduction of Van Bomer.
Van Bommel stayed in Sita de Fortuna for five years. Van Bomel loved Sita de F Fortuna very much, but he loved himself more. He knew that his future should be greater than his feelings for the club.
21-year-old Van Bomel is no longer a teenager, and his face also makes him look serious and mature. Hello, Mr. Jiang, I'm Van Bomel.
Van Bomel speaks English. He doesn't have an agent, nor does he let his family talk about such an important thing with Jiang Mu. However, he is not nervous in front of Jiang Mu, but has been seriously looking at this Chinese who is not a few years older than him.
"I'm Jiang Mu. This is my assistant Lin Nazhou. Thank you for accepting my invitation."
Jiang Mu spoke very modestly in Dutch. He deliberately lowered his posture to win the approval of Van Bomel.
"Mr. Jiang speaks Dutch very well, um... With all due respect, the Eindhoven Club has contacted me in advance, and their sincerity also touches me very much." Van Bommel frowned and said that his expression showed that he understood the importance of this matter to him.
"Yes, I know that. Eindhoven will definitely show their sincerity, but we will definitely be more sincere than them. Jiang Mu smiled and said confidently.
"I haven't said it yet. How do you know it's more sincere than their sincerity?" The umbrella brother is really direct and not tactful at all.
"Because they can't be greater than our sincerity, I promise you: the main position, the annual salary higher than Eindhoven, the chance to play in the Champions League next season, the captain of Alkmaar, can these Eindhoven give you?" Jiang Mu said his promise in one breath.
Van Bomer was stunned. Jiang Mu's promise has completely exceeded his mind. He can't believe that the head coach of the Dutch League will make such a promise to a player who plays in the second division club. What kind of trust is this? Van Bomer has never played in the first division, but he knows the front line of the Dutch League. He is not sure what the team is like and how much the main position that Eindhoven promised him can fulfill. Eindhoven is a giant in the Dutch League, and the pressure on their performance is much greater than that of a promoted horse like Alkmaar. And the opportunity to play in the Champions League is what Eindhoven dares not promise. This Chinese is simply too arrogant, but this is very appetizing for Van Bommel.
Thinking of this, Van Bomel stood up excitedly. Eindhoven's promise is really not as good as yours.
Jiang Mu smiled and said slowly, "The so-called promise is just a sentence. Although we will fall on paper, it is just a sentence. Your age is the fastest time for young players to grow up. If the game is played less, the players themselves will basically stop improving. Countless geniuses died at this stage, which has a lot to do with not being able to play the game. So it mainly depends on whether it is suitable or not.
Van Bommel was in a hurry and said, "Although your reputation is a little worse than that of Eindhoven, your Alkmaar is more suitable for my development. The small ball club can't buy a famous star worth tens of millions, and we young people have more opportunities to play.
Seeing that Van Bomel's mind has been completely on Alkmaar, Jiang Mu is even less anxious. He smiled and said, "This matter is related to your future. I don't want you to make such a hasty decision. Go home and discuss it with your parents and then call me, okay?"
Seeing Jiang Mu say this, Fan Bomel was even more relieved and said, "In fact, there is nothing to initial the contract now, but since you say so, I'd better go home and discuss it with my parents. I will reply to you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll wait for your call in Alkmaar. If everything goes well, I will ask the club's transfer officials to negotiate with your club. As long as they don't ask for a high price, this matter can basically be done in a few days." Jiang Mu smiled and said.
"The contract is not a problem. Sithad Fautuna and I have expired, and the new contract has not been signed yet. There are no obstacles to my transfer, but I just hope you can give a little compensation to my old employer."
"Of course, you are an affectionate and righteous player, and we won't let your old employer suffer too much."
Jiang Mu stood up and shook hands with Van Bomel, patted him on the shoulder, said goodbye to Van Bomel with Lin Na Zhou, and left Masbrac.
The next day, Van Bomer and his father came to Alkmaar to meet Jiang Mu in person. Van Bomer's father told Jiang Mu that as long as Jiang Mu could fulfill his promise to Van Bomel, he agreed to join Alkmaar. And reject Eindhoven. And told Jiang Mu that he had negotiated with the club. After signing the contract, Van Bomel would not even go back and could stay in Alkmaar to train directly.
Jiang Mu applauded and laughed and said, "Great, Mark, you will soon find out how wise it is to choose Alkmaar. You will get everything you want here."
Since Van Bommel has coordinated well with the Sita de Fortuna Club, Shringa sent a lawyer to solve the matter. For the Sita De Foutuna Club, Van Bomel's contract will expire soon, and they can get a "huge" transfer fee of 500,000 guilders. They have made a lot of money. In a lump, they didn't expect that Van Bomel was worth so much money.
The next thing to do is to go through the process. Jiang Mu and Shilinjia signed a three-year professional contract with Van Bomel on behalf of the club. From then on, a strong midfielder became Alkmaar, and he only needed to pay the symbolic 500,000 guilders.
This little money is a good income for a small club such as the Sita De Fortuna Club. In fact, the Sita De Fortuna Club also knows that Van Bomel still has potential, but even if they don't agree, there is nothing they can do. Under the Bosman Act, even if they are the lamb to be slaughtered, if Jiang Mu is willing to wait for another two months. They can't even make a penny.
Van Bomel signed his name on the contract. He got a generous contract, and his playing time was guaranteed. His annual salary reached 300,000 Dutch guilders, which was higher than Jiang Mu's. In addition, they also had bonuses if they could lead Alkmaar to complete the double crown that Jiang Mu said. His bonus will be twice the annual salary.
Of course, Jiang Mu is happier. He only used 500,000 guilders to solve the problem of the back and captain. In the future, this will be another proud work in his transfer.
When Van Bomer and Alkmaar signed the contract, new coach Bobby Robson of Eindhoven, who played a warm-up match between Portugal and Sporting Lisbon, also got the news.
Bobby Robson can be crowned with a great title. When he was young, he was a great player. After retirement, he was a great coach. Later, the world-famous Mourinho did his translation. Because of his achievements in football, a few years later, he was awarded the title of knighthood by Prince Charles of England at Buckingham Palace. He is the eighth person in English football to win this royal honor
"What?" Hearing the scout report, he said that Alkmaar robbed their Van Bommel, and the coach Bobby Robson thought he had heard it wrong. A few days ago, his assistant told him that Van Bommel was happy to sign a contract with Eindhoven. For Bobby Robson, Van Bommel has an important position in his new lineup.
"What did that Swede do?" Bobby Robson first thought of Ajax's head coach Olson. They are sworn in, just like England and Sweden in football. They are unlucky on their side. You must first think about whether the other party did it or not.
"No, it's not Ajax, it's that Chinese, Jiang Mu." Scouting.
"Jiang Mu, Chinese." Robson was stunned for a moment and immediately remembered that he had never heard of this coach before coming to the Netherlands. After coming to the Netherlands, he found that this Chinese man was very magical, but this did not make Robson regard him and Alkmaar as his opponents. The promotion was still not enough. He didn't expect that he would rob himself. The person you want.
"What did Van Bomel say? I want to know what ability a promoted horse can take away the person Eindhoven wants!" Bobby Robson said quietly.
"Van Bommel did not disclose specific details. He just said that Alkmaar is more suitable for his development, and the conditions are better than what we gave. The scout replied.
"Oh." Robson said oh and didn't say anything more, but he suddenly had a strong curiosity about the "youngest foreign head coach in the Dutch League" who didn't know much about it before. He actually has similar vision as himself. This Chinese really has a little way. No wonder so many people admire him and call him a magical coach.
Thinking of Jiang Mu's wild words that he said he wanted to win the championship not long ago, Robson said to himself, "Can he really create another miracle?"
