After the game, the players walked back to the locker room in twos and threes.

Yang Yang was at the corner of the player's tunnel and ran into the pot-bellied agent Mino Raiola.

"Hey, Yang, your performance tonight is amazing, amazing!"

As soon as Raiola saw Yang Yang, she immediately laughed and opened her arms to meet her, and hugged Yang Yang hard.

"Let me tell you, for your game tonight, I promise that tomorrow you will be able to make an important page in the major European media, and it will attract huge attention among fans all over the world, and your value will increase by at least five million euros."

Yang Yang was also quite surprised to see Raiola, and when he heard him mention his worth, he couldn't help but remind him again, "I have no plans to leave Ajax for the time being." ”

"I know, I know, the worth, of course, the higher the better, rest assured, I will never do what you don't want to do, my existence is to serve you, solve all your worries for you, and let you play football with peace of mind."

Hearing Raiola's promise, Yang Yang thanked him with confidence.

And Ibrahimovic, who walked with Yang Yang all the way and always stood aside, kept looking at Raiola, but when he saw that the Italian agent always focused on Yang Yang, he couldn't help but be a little jealous.

"I say, Mino, aren't you going to tell me something?" The Swedish center took the initiative to ask.

"Say what?" Raiola pretended to be stupid.

"I scored twice, I scored twice, in the first leg of the Champions League last-16 knockout round, against Arsenal, I scored twice." Ibrahimovic kept making a gesture of two in front of Raiola, looking at his expectant expression, as if to say, I scored twice, how amazing, you can praise me quickly!

Unexpectedly, Raiola pouted, "Your two goals were planned by Yang Yang, one direct assist, one indirect assist, you were just lucky and picked up a bargain in front of the goal, do you think there is anything to praise about this?" ”

The Swedish centre-forward almost didn't go crazy as if he had been poured a bucket of cold water straight over his head, "but I also gave him an assist. ”

"Please, that's Yang Yang's shot is good, and he can score such a difficult ball."

"But I'm the best player of the game."

"Therefore, I feel very aggrieved for Yang Yang, he should be the best performer in the audience, and those judges don't know if they took the wrong medicine."

Ibrahimovic pointed at Raiola with a face full of grievances, and then looked at Yang Yang, who was innocently lying next to him, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, and left the two men who made him sad.

Looking at the back of the Swedish center's departure, Yang Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Is it necessary for you to hit him like this?" ”

"You know his character, you can't praise it, you can't praise it, you just have a good performance, the key is the next game, or even the next game, he should try to maintain this state." Raiola said earnestly.

Yang Yang nodded, Raiola's analysis was not wrong at all.

It's clear that Ibrahimovic wants to move, Ajax wants to release him, and the Swedish centre-forward needs to do his best now to get the best out of him, get more big clubs to pay more for him, and also get a better place for himself in the new team in the future.

Not only him, but Trabelsi and Van der Vaart are said to have riders in their contracts, and Ajax will support them to develop in the big four leagues this summer, but only if the club is willing to pay a transfer fee for them.

"By the way, I have to leave soon, Van Gaal will definitely come to you when I come back, and if you ask about the contract, you just say you don't know."

Yang Yang frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

"Negotiation Strategy." A sly smile appeared on Raiola's chubby round face, "All in all, as I told you before, you can concentrate on the game, and leave the rest to me, I promise to let Ajax sign you a contract that you couldn't even think of before, and let them do their best to focus on cultivating you." ”

Yang Yang thought about it for a while, he didn't know much about negotiating with the club, but he thought that Raiola would not be untargeted, and it would have no impact on him, so he nodded and agreed.

…………

…………

Sure enough, Raiola was right.

When the team returned from the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium to De Tokmost, technical director Louis van Gaal also chased after him.

Although he affirmed everyone's performance on behalf of the club before the team disbanded, and hoped that everyone would continue to do so, his real goal was Yang Yang.

And when the two went to a secluded place to talk privately, the first thing he asked about Raiola was.

"I heard from the staff that he came to watch your game tonight?" Van Gaal asked with concern.

"Hmm." Yang Yang nodded, "I met at the players' tunnel after the game, but he said that there was something urgent and left immediately." ”

Van Gaal's brow furrowed, he really felt the urge to peel and cramp Raiola right now.

This damn vampire has already come to Amsterdam, and he didn't even see him, deliberately avoiding him, obviously trying to sit on the ground and raise the price.

"Did he talk to you about renewing your contract?" Van Gaal asked again.

"Nope." Yang Yang shook his head, "He just told me to focus on the game." ”

This surprised Van Gaal, but he didn't expect Raiola to say this to Yang Yang, so it seems that Yang Yang should not know about the negotiation of contract renewal.

The European professional league has developed for decades, and all walks of life and positions have developed extremely professionally, even agents have very clear professional boundaries, they are dependent on players to survive, even if they are some top agents, the difference is that the players they rely on are different.

Raiola's position in the agent industry is probably in the upper middle range, at most upstream, because he has not been able to get his hands on many stars so far, Nedved is the biggest star at the moment, but at Ajax he has four players: Ibrahimovic, Maxwell, Yang Yang and Vermaelen.

In a way, Raiola is still very influential at Ajax.

Players, fans and clubs, all three are in the same direction on the football field, but they are full of conflicts of interest internally.

What fans want to see most is that players are willing to be at the mercy of the clubs they support, and if they play well, they should stay unconditionally, and if they don't play well, they should stay unconditionally, and if they don't play well, they should get out of the team immediately.

The club is also not good at stubble, they also have their own management pressure, and they are also trying to squeeze players in every possible way, and if they can, they will never raise their salaries, just like the owner of a company.

Relatively speaking, players are at a disadvantage, on the one hand, they are generally not highly educated and can only play football, on the other hand, they need to concentrate on playing football and have no leisure time to deal with some off-field matters, so they need a shrewd agent.

After several contacts, coupled with Van Gaal's long-term observation, Raiola is a very conscientious agent who treats players and knows how to consider the interests of his employer, so as a friend of Yang Yang, he is very relieved about Raiola.

But as the technical director of Ajax, he is as big as a fight.

"What's wrong?" Yang Yang heard Van Gaal sigh and asked with concern.

Van Gaal thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, he's right, you just concentrate on the game, and we'll take care of the rest." ”

In the end, he decided not to drag Yang Yang into the dispute over the negotiation of transfers, firstly, it was not in line with the rules, and secondly, it was easy to distract Yang Yang, although he knew that as long as he spoke, Yang Yang would definitely come forward.

'By the way, you did a great job tonight, especially with that left-footed cross to Ibrahimovic at the end, which was very surprising. Van Gaal changed the subject and laughed.

Speaking of the competition, Yang Yang also laughed, "Thanks to what you told me before, let me practice my left foot more, I never dare to forget, I have always trained hard." ”

Van Gaal nodded, he was 1,000% relieved of Yang Yang's hard work.

A person who can self-discipline and engage in that kind of boring basic training for a long time must have an extremely strong heart, a very amazing ability to self-discipline, and a very clear and definite goal.

Such a player will definitely succeed.

"You must not be deceived by the results you have achieved now, you must know that you are still a partial student, and it is a very serious partial student, there are two reasons for your outstanding performance now, one is that the other party is not familiar with you and does not understand you, and the second is because the team uses you well according to your characteristics and plays to your advantages."

"I know." Yang Yang nodded.

He is becoming more and more convinced of Van Gaal's vision.

"Then you should continue the momentum you have and focus on two things."

"You say." Yang Yang was very happy to get Van Gaal's suggestion.

"First of all, you have to continue to improve your current strengths, which is the foundation of your foothold in the first team and the foundation of your foothold in the professional league in the next few years, not only can you not lose it, but you must continue to work on it."

Yang Yang nodded, whether it was him or Lao Bing in the super training ground, they all thought so.

"While doing this well, you need to make up for your shortcomings as soon as possible, and it is very important to stop the ball, especially as the game platform continues to improve, which will increasingly expose your shortcomings, and the opponent will take a close look at you, and will study and restrain you deeply."

'The other thing is the change of tempo, I think you don't have a change in tempo whether you're dribbling at high speed or at other times, which is not a good sign for an attacking player and you should try to work on that.

Yang Yang admired Van Gaal's vision very much and nodded heavily.

"You have to remember that for a 17-year-old, one move is rarely a good thing, but if you want to go further and prove yourself on a higher platform, then you have to make yourself more well-rounded and make it more difficult for your opponent to contain you."

"As you get older, as your fame increases, as your status in the team continues to improve, you will find that everyone around you will have higher and higher requirements for you, and expectations of you will become bigger and bigger, no one will still measure you by the standard of seventeen when you are twenty years old, you can only keep moving forward."

Yang Yang understands that what Van Gaal said, in Chinese, is that learning is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat.

The technical director didn't say much, and after reminding him earnestly, he patted Yang Yang's shoulder encouragingly, and turned to leave.
