Football: Rebirth 04, I Create a Black Shop in Football

Chapter 396

Li Shiguang was very satisfied with Lahm's reaction. In his opinion, at least Lahm did not make him misjudge.

Nodding gently, Li Shiguang replied with a smile: "Philip, I like your honesty! Just like you thought, after I rejected Bayern Munich's offer, I decided to let you know about this. After all, I promised you when I was in Munich that if you want to return to Bayern Munich, I will not stop you!"

Seeing that Li Shiguang did not intend to hide this from him, Lahm was a little moved, but he also noticed the meaning of Li Shiguang's words.

Lahm was shocked: "Boss, have you rejected it?"

Li Shiguang nodded naturally, with a calm tone: "Yes, in my heart, you are not for sale at Leeds United! And in my opinion, Bayern Munich's offer for you is too insulting to your worth."

Lahm was a little entangled: "Although I don't know the specific price, my agent told me that their offer is quite high..."

"It seems that your agent has also become accustomed to Bayern Munich's rampant dominance in the Bundesliga. This set of rules will not work here!" Li Shiguang seemed a little disdainful.

Although he said something disparaging about Bayern Munich.

But from the expression on Lahm's face, Li Shiguang could see that Lahm was still somewhat moved by Bayern Munich's call.

Anyway.

His first goal was to persuade Lahm to stay. If he couldn't stay, he would consider bargaining with Bayern Munich.

After a little thought, Li Shiguang decided to speak frankly: "Philip, so what do you think? I have worked with you for three years. Whether as your head coach or friend, I will respect your opinion!"

See Li Shiguang go straight to the point.

Lahm did not hesitate, but responded with a somewhat painful tone: "Thank you, boss! To be honest, I am quite entangled! You know, Bayern Munich is where I started my football career. I have dreamed of playing as a main player in Bayern Munich since I was a child, and I always have feelings for it! But... I no longer have the idea of ​​using Leeds United as a springboard for my career three years ago. I have worked with you for so long, and I have long regarded Leeds United as my second home team..."

Lahm did not finish his words.

However, Li Shiguang could understand what he meant. In simple terms, it was probably that if he left, he would be sorry for Leeds United and himself... If he did not leave, he could not completely give up the dream and goal that he had determined since childhood.

Regarding this point.

Li Shiguang, who knew Lahm's character well enough, had already thought of a countermeasure on the way back to the office.

Li Shiguang knew.

Starting from the emotional point of view, it is really difficult to convince this mature German. If I force myself to play the emotional card with Lahm, it will only cause Lahm to fall into endless internal friction. Maybe he will not decide whether to leave or not, which will affect his state on the field.

In this case.

Why not change the idea and let Lahm not consider emotions, but make a choice purely from the perspective of career development and personal income!

"Philip, I want to ask you, for playing football, besides your heartfelt love, have you ever thought about anything else?"

Faced with Li Shiguang's confusing question, Ram was a little confused, looked at Li Shiguang and asked, "Others? What else?"

Li Shiguang smiled: "For example, earn enough money through playing football and achieve financial freedom. For example, become the best player in the world, or the best full-back and defensive midfielder, and be loved by countless fans. For example, win many honors and become a famous player of a certain team. After you retire, your photos and jerseys will always be hung in the player channel of the home stadium, and so on and so forth..."

"Of course I have thought about it!" After listening to Li Shiguang's explanation, Ram immediately laughed, "Boss, of course I have thought about these, It should be said that every professional player has thought about this! However, what does this have to do with whether I go back to Bayern Munich? "

"Of course it has something to do with it!" Li Shiguang took a sip of water and officially started his PUA method: "I know it is very difficult for you to make a choice between going or staying, because you have deep feelings for Leeds United and Bayern Munich."

"In this case, let's not think so much, put aside things like feelings, and think about something practical!"

"Practical!"

"Yes! Take salary as an example. Since you signed the contract extension last year, your salary has been at the upper-middle level in our team. Now it seems that only Luka, Kaka and Didico are higher than you. Although I don't know how much money Bayern Munich is willing to give you, I think they shouldn't haveI pay high!"

Speaking of salary.

Li Shiguang has indeed never treated his players unfairly.

Since the financial crisis was resolved, the salaries given by Li Shiguang to both club staff and players are among the best in the Premier League.

Lahm's current salary has more than doubled compared to when he first joined Leeds United!

So as soon as Li Shiguang finished speaking, Lahm naturally nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Lahm had no objection.

Li Shiguang quickly struck while the iron was hot: "Second point, you also know the situation of the team, so I won't say much. But if we analyze it from the league, Serie A is gradually declining, La Liga is almost dominated by Real Madrid and Barcelona in turn, not to mention the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich is the only one! However, the competitiveness of the Premier League is increasing year by year, coupled with the inclusiveness of our league, believe me, Philip, in a few years, the Premier League will become the most eye-catching league in the world, no doubt! And the players who play in this league will naturally become the most watched players in the world! "

Ram tilted his head and thought about it, it seemed that Li Shiguang was not wrong.

After all, Li Shiguang had talked to them before. In his hometown, almost every Premier League game was broadcast by TV stations, while in the Bundesliga or La Liga, only some focus matches would be broadcast by TV stations.

"Finally! And the most important point! Philip, you are the player I brought back from Munich personally. When I was sitting in the restaurant and persuading you to join, I told you that you have always been in my plan!"

"Now, you and I have grown a lot. We won the English Championship, League Cup, and Premier League together! Next, there are FA Cup, Champions League, Super Cup, Club World Cup and other championships waiting for us to compete! I want to ask you, are you willing to give up halfway! ? Don't you really want to hang your jersey in the player tunnel of Elland Road after retirement, so that your juniors will look at your jersey every time before stepping into Elland Road! ? "

Finish this chicken blood in one breath.

Li Shiguang picked up the water cup again, and looked at Ram who was completely confused by his words with a smile on his face.

This was the strategy he had thought of before.

No talk of feelings.

But, every word was full of feelings!
