Chapter 535: Wang Li's Value

The Champions League is finally over, and the 2005/2006 season has come to an end. For Real Madrid, this season was perfect because they won the treble and became the undisputed best team in Europe.

As for Wang Li himself, this season is also perfect. He has reached a peak in Real Madrid. This can be seen from the media reports after the game.

"One man's season, one man's Real Madrid, one man's Champions League!"?

This is the evaluation of the mass media after the game. In the public opinion, both the fans interviewed and various football stars talked about the topic of Wang Li. In their opinion, they all agreed that this season belongs to Wang Li alone. ?

First, for Real Madrid, halfway through the season, they even fell to third place in the Spanish La Liga, five points behind Barcelona. But when Wang Li returned, he used his continuous goals to help Real Madrid win one victory after another, until Real Madrid became the first in La Liga and won the La Liga championship three rounds ahead of schedule.

Wang Li's average of 3 goals per league game played a decisive role in Real Madrid's winning the league title. Without Wang Li, it would have been very difficult for Real Madrid to get first place in the league, not to mention winning the championship three rounds in advance, which would have been almost impossible.

In addition, in the Spanish King's Cup, although Real Madrid had smooth sailing from beginning to end, Wang Li's goals still played a huge role. Real Madrid's easy wins in the last few games were directly related to Wang Li.

In the Champions League, this is even more evident.

'One man's Real Madrid', this is the media's evaluation of the last Champions League final. Wang Li's three goals were all as dazzling as gold. They could fully see from the goals that Wang Li played an important role in the game. It can be said that without Wang Li, Real Madrid would definitely lose to Lyon in the final. This is unanimously recognized by everyone. ?

This is just for Real Madrid. ?

Looking at the situation of the Champions League this season, since entering the knockout stage, half of the media's attention has been focused on Madrid and the shining black-haired boy. From then on, no one is more dazzling than Wang Li. ?

In every game, Wang Li lived up to the fans' expectations. Except for the first round match against Benfica, he almost dominated the game in other games. He is the best player in the Champions League. The value of this "best" is very high, at least from the number of goals, he scored 16 more Champions League goals than the second scorer Robinho.

In fact, Wang Li played five fewer Champions League group matches.

This difference made Wang Li the focus of everyone and the number one star in the Champions League. No one performed better than him. If a survey was conducted, I am afraid that all other players combined would not receive more attention than Wang Li alone. ?

Therefore, the media called this season's Champions League "one man's Champions League", with only Wang Li and Real Madrid being just a byproduct. ?

This season belongs entirely to Wang Li. ?

This situation made the media and fans feel incredible and they were constantly amazed.

This black-haired kid is undoubtedly the rising football king of the new century. They think that such a player has transcended the scope of football. His strength is too strong and his brilliance is too dazzling. ?

"...I am very happy to help the club win the Champions League trophy. This is also my second Champions League title. As long as the fans continue to support me, I will use my performance to prove myself!" Wang Li said this seriously at the press conference after the game. ?

This sentence made all the fans who supported Wang Li very excited, but in fact, it was just an official statement made by Wang Li casually, and his mind had already returned to England. ?

For him, the Real Madrid season is over, maybe he should think about something else, like ---?

The upcoming World Cup, my wedding, my transfer, etc.

In chronological order, the first thing to think about is his transfer. Before, Wang Li had never considered leaving Real Madrid because his price was very high and few teams could afford him. Besides, he himself had no intention of leaving.

Everything here is pretty good, his salary is also high, at least anything he does is enough, Wang Li just wants to live a meaningful life, and he can get all of this in Real Madrid. ?

But after yesterday's game, a phone call from Mourinho made him hesitate. ?

"Mr. Moratti, the president of Inter Milan, sincerely invites you to join Inter Milan, and I will also coach Inter Milan next season. I hope you can consider it."

Such a sentence sounds very plain and official, but Wang Li can hear Mourinho's sincerity. ?

If Wang Li had received such a call before, he would have just chatted with Mourinho about some trivial matters, because he didn't want to think about the future, after all, things were not yet in front of him. He has experienced three lives, and his rich experience makes him rarely think about the future, but now the Champions League is over, and this season is over. If he really wants to think about this issue, it is time. ?

How can I do this? ?

Mourinho's words really moved Wang Li. ?

Real Madrid is pretty good. He has good teammates, good friends, and fans who like him. He has reached the pinnacle in Real Madrid. The fans all recognize him and his income is very high. All these factors make Wang Li feel that he can never leave Real Madrid.

But at Inter Milan, we will have these too, right? ?

And most importantly, there is a coach he admires there - Jose Mourinho. Wang Li has a good feeling about Mourinho. This coach knows him very well. If he can play under him, he will definitely be much better than Carlo. At least he thinks so. The level of these two coaches is not a little different. ?

If he continues to stay in Real Madrid, he will still play under Carlo next season. ?

To others, this didn’t seem to be a bad thing, after all, Real Madrid had won the treble this season and Carlo was the head coach of Real Madrid, but Wang Li felt that it was too tiring… yes, too tiring!! ?

Take this season for example, he participated in almost all the games in the second half of the season, and in many of them, Real Madrid won because of his performance alone. Although this made him get more attention and scored more goals, Wang Li still felt tired.

Maybe some players like this, the feeling of being a hero always makes people feel proud and get confidence and support, but Wang Li doesn't like it. He is confident in his ability and likes a leisurely life. He likes football very much, but he only regards it as a hobby. If he is forced to work hard just to make more money, he is unwilling to do so. ?

So in conclusion, although it is not bad in Real Madrid, Wang Li still needs to do a lot of work in pursuit of victory. ?

On the contrary, if he goes to Inter Milan, it will be different. There will be a new environment and a familiar coach, so he will need to do much less. At least occasionally, Inter Milan will still win even if he does not participate in the game. ?

This is what Wang Li hopes to see. ?

Three consecutive seasons of busyness have made him a little tired, and he needs some time to relax. ?

So Mourinho's proposal made Wang Li very tempted. But this kind of temptation did not reach a certain level. After talking with Rita, Wang Li also understood some things. For his reputation, or for his own financial prospects, he could not apply for a transfer himself. Doing so would cause the disgust of Real Madrid fans, and some media with ulterior motives would also seize the handle to attack him. ?

This is detrimental to his reputation worldwide. ?

"well........."?

Wang Li put his hands behind his head, lay on the bed, sighed, shook his head and said: "Don't force anything, just let it go."

He still wants to let nature take its course. This was the case with the last transfer, and he wants to do the same with this transfer. If Inter Milan really wants to buy him, they will definitely try their best to offer a price that will make Real Madrid excited, so that it will be natural for him to agree to the transfer. ?

But if the price offered by Inter Milan does not satisfy Real Madrid, Wang Li will not take the initiative to put pressure on the club. After all, he is doing well in Real Madrid, and staying here next season is also a good choice. There is no need for him to do that.

............?

At the same time, a small conference room of the Real Madrid Club was filled with a large number of Real Madrid staff, most of whom belonged to the economic department. Each of them had a computer in front of them, and their fingers kept tapping on the keyboard, seemingly doing tedious work.

Yes, they are wrapping up the season. ?

This season is a harvest season for Real Madrid. After it ends, they must make a detailed report on the club's expenses and income, and use precise calculations to evaluate the value created by each player in the team.

This report is very complicated, including all the club's income this season, such as membership and stadium income, game income, TV broadcast income and market development income, etc. Each of these items is calculated in tens of millions of dollars. This is how Real Madrid makes a profit.

However, compared with the club's income, the expenditure value should not be underestimated. The largest item is the money the team invested in the transfer market and the players' wages. Although Figo, Owen and others left last season, the arrival of Baptista, Robinho and Cicinho has completely made up for this item?

The arrival of Wang Li almost doubled Real Madrid's total salary! ! ?

This season alone, his basic salary is 40 million euros, plus goal bonuses, championship bonuses, etc., this figure will reach a terrifying 47 million euros. If half of the advertising share of image rights and the share of jersey sales are taken into account, Wang Li has amassed more than 76 million euros from Real Madrid this year alone.

Seeing this data, all the staff members in the venue couldn't help but swallow their saliva. ?

If Wang Li had not created a lot of profits and brought a lot of value to Real Madrid, I'm afraid Real Madrid would have gotten rid of this "blood sucker" without hesitation. His annual salary is even enough to buy a wealthy team, which is really shocking. ?

But this kind of thing is actually happening. ?

In fact, the purpose of so many staff members gathering together today is naturally for the summer transfer. They need to evaluate the benefits and expenditures brought to the team by each player in Real Madrid this year to determine which players must be retained and which players have no commercial value.

If these cumbersome data are combined with the evaluations given by the sports department, they will be able to determine who will be listed for sale in the summer. ?

Maybe this has something to do with the players' performance, but in Real Madrid, it is also directly linked to commercial value. ?

"Take a look at this form, Mr. Perez." In the evening, the general data had been analyzed, and the team's deputy director of the economic department, Sarr, frowned and handed a form to Florentino.

Florentino sat up straight on the recliner, took a sip of the coffee beside him calmly, then took the form, put on his glasses and started to read it.

This is an overall economic report of Real Madrid this season. ?

This table shows that Real Madrid's regular income last season was as high as 490 million euros (excluding transfers), the club's operating income (the difference between regular income and operating expenses) exceeded 200 million euros, the net profit after tax reached 28 million euros, and the club's liquidity exceeded 130 million euros! ?

However, although the income is high, the expenditure is not inferior, especially in Wang Li alone. Including the transfer fee, Real Madrid invested nearly 250 million euros this year! ! ?

Such a large sum of money has become a key factor dragging down Real Madrid's revenue. ?

In fact, since Florentino became the president of Real Madrid in 2000, he has signed superstars one after another, and at the same time, he has also raised a huge question mark to the world: Can Real Madrid afford to pile up superstars financially? There is no club without debt in the European football circle. But Real Madrid's comprehensive financial statements in recent years show that the financial situation of the "Galactico" is very healthy---?

In the 2002-03 season, Real Madrid made a net profit of 6.23 million euros after tax.

In the 2003-04 season, Real Madrid made a profit of 6.1 million euros.

In the 2004-05 season, Real Madrid's pre-tax profit was as high as 50 million euros! ?

In today's football economy, which is in the depths of winter, the figure of 50 million euros is undoubtedly a miracle in the world of football. Moreover, last season, Real Madrid had not won any championship despite the crisis on three fronts. Under such circumstances, it can almost be described as a miracle to have such a high income.

This season, Real Madrid won the championship in all three competitions, which increased their revenue by nearly 45 million euros. Overall, Real Madrid's revenue is very good. They have the world's top star Alan Wang, who has attracted the attention of the world. Therefore, Real Madrid's overall revenue this season exceeds 600 million euros.

However, due to the investment in the transfer market and the team's salary expenditure, Real Madrid's net profit is not outstanding. This season, their overall net income is only 35 million euros, which is 15 million euros less than last season.

The reason for this is obvious. Wang Li's transfer fee and salary have seriously dragged down Real Madrid's revenue. If Wang Li's expenditure is excluded, Real Madrid's revenue this season should be close to 300 million euros.

Of course this cannot be ruled out. ?

Without Wang Li, Real Madrid would not have achieved the current results, and this is something they must consider. ?

However, this form still made Florentino frown, mainly because Wang Li's income alone was too shocking. ?

If things continue like this, as long as this black-haired kid is in Real Madrid for one year, Real Madrid will have to spend at least 70 million euros on him. Although he can also bring a lot of income to Real Madrid, think about the 200 million euros transfer fee. It will take at least several years of continuous income for Wang Li to earn it back.

"Can he maintain his condition for so long?"?

At this time, Florentino had no choice but to consider this issue. ?

If this black-haired kid can maintain his divinely-assisted state for more than three years, then Real Madrid will definitely make a profit, whether it is transfer fees or personal salary, Real Madrid can earn it back from the market. ?

"But, if his condition is different next season, or the season after that..."?

Thinking of this, Florentino was very entangled. Perhaps Chelsea Club was worried about this problem a year ago, so they sold this black-haired boy to Real Madrid, and now it is his turn to worry. ?

After all, this was a huge sum of money, and he had no choice but to think it over carefully. ?

At this moment, a staff member from the economic department stumbled into Florentino's office. He didn't even knock on the door, but just barged in, which made Florentino frown. ?

However, he didn't have the energy to think about it anymore, because the staff member handed him a form, which was a transfer offer from another club.

The content of this quotation is very detailed. Florentino skimmed over the official words on it and focused his eyes on the main content below.

This is a transfer offer from Inter Milan. Florentino laughed when he saw it, because at this time last year, Inter Milan was the first club to make an offer to Real Madrid. They proposed to acquire Real Madrid defender Samuel and offered 20 million euros. He was very tempted, but unfortunately, for Wang Li's transfer, Samuel became a "gift" and was "sent" to Chelsea. ?

And now Inter Milan has made another offer, who will be their target? ?

Thinking of this, Florentino continued to watch with a smile on his face, but after a few seconds, the smile on his face froze, and he said in disbelief: "Alan?"

"What?"?

Hearing this, Sal was also shocked and turned to look at the form. With a gleam in his eyes, he asked, "How sincere are they?"

Florentino did not answer, but pointed to the last line of the transfer offer, which read:

"Inter Milan wants to buy Real Madrid star Alan Wang, the transfer offer is 330 million euros..."?
