So before July 31st, Ballack’s contract with Chelsea expired and he became a free agent.
……
Changsheng is still hesitant about whether to let Ballack come to Lazio.
Mainly Barak’s annual salary.
Generally speaking, the annual salary of free transfer players is high, because they have not asked the club to pay for the transfer, so the club will naturally "reward" the player to add the part they should pay for the transfer to his salary, so that his salary will be higher than before the transfer.
Higher than before the transfer. What is that concept?
Barak’s annual salary is now one million euros, which is higher than that … even if it is one million euros, it will be nine million euros.
This figure is too exaggerated
Lazio’s highest annual salary is 4 million now, and he can’t give Barak 4 million euros. What do other heroes think about giving him the highest annual salary because Barak has just come to the team and has not made great achievements?
It is generally believed that the wage gap between the two sides will be too large and they are not determined to introduce Barak.
……
Becker hung up.
Behind him, Barack asked, "What’s up, Michael?"
Becker turned to Barak and shook his head. "He seems very cautious and unwilling to make promises easily. He repeatedly stressed that the expectations of the two sides in annual salary will be far apart … although I think what he said is also reasonable …" Becker shrugged.
Lazio will never be satisfied with an annual salary of 6 million euros. Their current maximum salary is 4 million euros.
Barak was lost in thought when he heard this.
After leaving Chelsea, Ballack and his agent Becker went home and got busy.
They want to go to a high-level team and their salary can’t be reduced too much.
So their bottom line is 6 million euros.
Two million euros less than when I was in Chelsea.
For Barak, this is already a pay cut.
But the problem is … it’s far from Lazio’s limit. It’s two million euros!
Moreover, they are all well aware of the winning style. It is almost impossible to say that winning Barak will increase the two million euros.
Changsheng and his boss Lotito are stingy.
They value every penny and every euro.
"Otherwise we consider other teams? Real Madrid? " Becker asked.
Barak smiled. "Do you believe in Michael when the media randomly fires you? Real Madrid has been gone for a while. "
Becker was also silent.
It’s Real Madrid, but it’s just media speculation. In fact, Real Madrid has little interest in Ballack.
"So …" After some consideration, Becker said, "Shall we go back to Leverkusen? I think if you are willing to go back, they will be willing to give you an annual salary of six million … "
Barak didn’t speak this time. He was lost in thought.
It can be seen that the meeting in Leverkusen attracted him a lot.
He is the iconic figure of Leverkusen. He is the captain of Leverkusen. Going back to Leverkusen is like falling leaves. He can get respect and warmth there.
If you want to retire to Leverkusen, it’s a great choice.
But …
