Chapter 88 – Transfer (2)

088

It makes me happy to see how close my girls are.

“What are you laughing at!!”
“Why are you doing this to my child? Are you angry?”
“… No way. Please explain quickly.”

Look at this.
Since there are two of us, the sparks that used to fly at me also go to each other. You should also have a rival.

“When I gathered only known information due to lack of time, if I choose EPL, I recommend Tottenham or Arsenal. Both contract terms are similar, and it is expected that entering the first team will be easy, so the choice is yours.”

Kya As expected, smartly, like Yoon Daye, she only points out the key points.
I nodded my head in satisfaction and chose my next favorite league.

“And what about La Liga?”
“If you are a South American or an African or Turkic nationality that has joined the Cotonou Agreement, it is unexpectedly spacious, but Asian nationalities like us are very tight. Just like the EPL, the size of the first-team roster is 25 players, and the limit of three foreign players is on the first-team roster, so in some ways it may be tighter.”
“3 people… I know, but it’s really tight.”
“The fortunate thing is that most of the foreign players in La Liga are South American players. It is possible to acquire Spanish citizenship by fulfilling the two-year residency condition, so the rule for three foreigners was unexpectedly wide. That’s why quite a few clubs in La Lira are aggressive towards you.”

The upper part of the proposal Yoon Daye chose was full of familiar logos that any soccer player would know.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​AT Madrid, Valencia, Malaga, Getafe, Sevilla… What is this. What’s going on like this? The face of the club is incredibly flashy.

“Are you too many?”
“There is no transfer fee, and since it is the first professional contract, the salary is low. Besides, he is an Asian superstar. I found out while negotiating with the clubs about the contract, that they care a lot about portrait rights and rights in Japan and China. Look at how popular you are in Japan and China than we thought.”
“Ha, this guy’s popularity is real.”

He playfully shrugs his shoulders and snorts at Daye Yoon.

“Don’t like it. I don’t know if they’re trying to recruit for marketing purposes rather than skill.”
“… That doesn’t work.”
“Anyway, if you look at the results, all the clubs have rushed. Even the second part showed interest. I will treat you as a key player. Of course, it was cut from our line.”
“There are still quite a few.”
“This is also picked and picked. Whether it’s the Champions League or the Europa League, only clubs that participate in European competitions have good contract terms.”

As expected, a player should be good regardless of skill, popularity, or whatever.
To think that these famous clubs are clamoring for each other to come… Ha, a man like me is really great.

“Stop talking nonsense. La Liga clubs are particularly interested in your commercial value. The right to freely use portrait rights for commercial use by the club was included in the essential contract conditions demanded there.”

Right of portrait.
In the dictionary meaning, it means ‘the right not to arbitrarily produce, publicize, or profitably use one’s own image’, but when expanded to a commercial meaning, it includes all ‘business activities using one’s own image’.

Of course, since it is a right that covers everything such as advertisements and characters, if you sign a wrong contract, you will not be able to film even if a CF offer comes, and even if you do, most of the income will go to the club.

In the case of popular famous players, the income from the use of portrait rights is often much greater than the annual salary, so I had to be especially careful about portrait rights.

“It’s not that other leagues aren’t active in using portrait rights, but La Liga is too harsh. There are also cases where the terms and conditions of use or ratios are requested at ridiculous levels.”
“Just skip that team.”

Daye Yoon quietly crumpled up a few pieces of paper and threw them.

“Ah. For your information, I focused on shortening the contract period as much as possible and adding starter options even if I lowered my annual salary and allowance. Are you fine?”
“Are you okay!”
“How are you? If it’s money, the boss with a lot of money is here to support you. You don’t spend a lot of money anyway, do you?”

Daye Yoon points at Harin Oh with her chin.
… Come to think of it, it is.

They say they lowered the salary, but I play in the top European league, and there is no good salary, and in the first place I… You don’t spend much money either.
People who have spent money say they spend it well, but since it’s just a monotonous routine of training-home-sex-training-home-sex, money is useless.

“So, roughly how much is my salary?”
“La Liga is between 550,000 and 700,000 euros. There is no big difference in other leagues.”

Well… How much is that I don’t get it.
As if she knew that, Daye Yoon kindly calculates it with today’s exchange rate and informs her.

“Between 730 million and 930 million in Hanwha. Including options and allowances, it would be roughly 1 billion won. It fluctuates depending on the exchange rate, so it’s about this much, just refer to it.”
“… How much? 10 billion?”

Holly… If you lower it to this level, how much is it if you raise it to the maximum?

“Europe, especially soccer players, are classified as high-income earners, so taxes are high, so think about reducing 40-50%.”
“Oh crazy! You say you pay taxes like that?”

I feel bad all of a sudden

“Instead, the contract period was adjusted to an additional one year in addition to the basic three years. First-team squad registration is basic, and depending on the club, there are places that guarantee 5 to 10 starting matches.”

Still, the annual salary is in the billions.
400 to 500 million even after tax.

Tears come to my eyes as I recall the days when I ran like a dog without pay, let alone a salary of 100 million won. It doesn’t go away.

‘Thinking about it, I… Except for the beginning of admission, I was doing well thanks to Oh Harin.’

The house is a penthouse that uses the top floor of a newly built officetel.
The car was a dream car, the Mercedes CLS. In addition, the beautiful woman Oh Harin cooks, does the laundry, cleans, drives her every morning, and even has sex with the pickup at night after training… Most of it is done by the housekeeper, but since that money also comes from Oh Harin, Oh Harin does it.

… What. Why not just go abroad?

“Real Madrid and Barcelona have better conditions than other clubs.”
“… Real? Barça?”

Oh I can’t stand this
I want to go to europe

“Guys, they raised the conditions competitively to fight pride. These two teams are the best in La Liga. It’s a matter of whether I can play as a starting player.”
“Are you sure about the first-team roster?”
“That’s for sure. In the first place, it was decided to specify first-team roster registration in the contract, and both clubs have a wide limit of 3 foreign players, so that should not be a problem. Barcelona has 4 foreign players from Brazil, 2 from Argentina, 1 from France and 1 from Germany, and all but the German players have dual citizenship in Spain. Real Madrid is a bit more diverse, but this time there is a dual nationality holder, so Tio gets a spot.”

Real Madrid and Barcelona.
It’s Real Madrid and Barça. It is truly a dream club for soccer players.

“I love it, but. It may be easy to get into the first team, but it is not guaranteed to play as a starting player.”
“Don’t worry. Jorge is also playing as a starting pitcher? I’m at that level, but can’t I play as a starter?”

Yoon Daye let out a sigh when I saw myself expressing my confidence.

“Even if the skills are similar, Jorge is a player who was recruited with a transfer fee of 50 million euros, or more than 66 billion won in Korean money. This is because the contract period is short, so if the contract period was longer, the transfer fee would have more than doubled? Besides, a player with an annual salary four to ten times his country’s best prospect, will they treat them the same just for their skills?”
“That… Are you tired.”
“Okay. It’s hard unless you show overwhelming skill.”

The mulberry, which had risen at best, shrank quickly.
Seeba… Reality is a gutter.

“Then how about Serie?”
“Unexpectedly, the rules are not stricter than EPL or La Liga. The size of the roster is the same at 25 players, the homegrown conditions are a bit better compared to the EPL, and it is more difficult than La Liga, but the transfer itself is easy. Only two players from NON-EU can be recruited in a season, but in many cases, the Serie A atmosphere does not fill the NON-EU recruitment quota in the first place.”
“Is it because of racism?”
“No. Serie A is not particularly harsh. The image is like that, and other countries are similar. In Serie A, AC Milan and Inter want you most actively.”

Hmm… Serira.
The Italian stage has its own romance. That’s not enough to beat the EPL and dream clubs Real and Barça.

“Lastly, the Bundesliga is the most comfortable. It has been more than 10 years since Japanese players were introduced at low prices due to an agreement with the J-League, and since there is virtually no quota for foreign players, it is a place that Korean players entering Europe consider first, so Asian players have the highest preference and affinity.”

It is a place where many Japanese players as well as Korean players have been active, so the Bundesliga is the most friendly league.
It’s the EPL or La Liga, so it’s an image of a second or third player for a long time, but it’s also an economical league that unexpectedly produces the most consistent results in the Champions League.

“Actually, the Bundesliga is where I want you the most as a player. If the EPL, La Liga, or Serie focus on marketing rather than your skills, the Bundesliga clubs, which have the highest financial soundness and can manage clubs only with their own income, are more interested in your skills as a player than marketing.”

The Bundesliga, which is famous for having the highest average audience in the world, is famous for being the most financially sound league that can operate a club only with its own profits, combined with the unique 50 1 system.

Maybe that’s why, rather than the Asian marketing aspect, it’s a place that wants me as a player.

“In fact, in other leagues, the general manager or the board has proposed recruitment, but unusually, in the Bundesliga club, the coaches sent the proposal directly. They emphasized your role in the team and tactical changes rather than the terms of the contract.”

After the explanation, Daye Yoon carefully covered it with her hand and yawned.
As if yawning was also contagious, even Oh Harin, who was sitting next to her, yawned a little and waited for my choice with slightly teary eyes.

“Well… Do I have to decide right now?”
“Anyway, the sooner the better. A rough estimate came out, but once you get into negotiations, you might argue over the details.”
“Then… I will do it here.”
“… By all means, to here?”
