Young Football Player

Leading the little caddy out of the player tunnel, Li Chenglong once again set foot on the turf of Aofu Schalke.

The last time he set foot on this land, he was still an opponent.

This time, he has become a member of the Schalke 04 team.

Boom~~~

As soon as Li Chenglong, wearing the No. 7 jersey, stepped on the field, there was a bang in the stands, which was the collective discussion of the fans.

There is no doubt that Jackie Lee is one of the few big-name signings in the history of the Schalke 04 team.

This home appearance was also specially prepared by the Schalke 04 club. More than ten TV stations and dozens of reporters came to the scene.

Put the little caddy Hank on the sidelines, and soon a beautiful host arranged by the club came over with a microphone.

"Bruce, hello." The blond-haired and blue-eyed host started the introduction topic with a smile on his face.

"Hello."

"How does it feel to wear the royal blue jersey for the first time?"

"It's a very special feeling. I feel that my whole body seems to be full of strength."

"Do you know how many fans are here today?"

"I don't know yet."

"More than 48,000 fans came to the scene. This is the second most time in Schalke's history to watch a new signing, second only to the time when Raul joined two years ago."

"Thank you very much for the support of all the fans." Li Chenglong said, and began to wave to the surrounding stands.

The fans at the scene immediately gave warm applause to respond to Li Chenglong, and at the same time, banners were released on the stands, all of which were words of welcome to join Li Chenglong.

"Then how do you plan to repay the fans who support you in the future."

"With outstanding performance, there is still a championship."

"Really? Like, what kind of champion?"

"Any championship, I will try my best to help the team win any championship that can be won, but what I most hope to help the Royal Blue win is the Bundesliga championship and the Champions League championship. This is a championship that Royal Blue has never won."

Jackie Chan's rhetoric once again made the Schalke stadium resound with applause from the audience.

After the interview is over, the next step is to show off your skills on the spot, that is, to bounce the ball.

Li Chenglong got up early in the morning to practice, the effect is still good, he feels very good now.

Stepping on the ball with the soles of his feet and pulling it back, he lifted the football with his toes, and Li Chenglong caught the ball with his forehead, and just like this he came to the center of the court with the ball on his head.

So the next step is to bounce the ball normally, with the back of the foot, the inside of the foot, and the thigh, alternately, and finally shoot the ball to the fans in the stands.

After shooting several footballs into the stands in a row, there was a link unique to the Schalke 04 club at the end.

Two people dressed as miners came to the field and handed a piece of coal ore to Li Chenglong, and this home appearance was over.

Schalke 04 was first established by coal miners in the Ruhr area, so this last link can be regarded as commemorating the origin of the club.

After his home debut, Jackie Lee needs to hurry to gather with the Schalke team to prepare for the new season together.

In fact, Schalke 04 started preparing for the new season in July.

But at that time, Jackie Lee was still participating in the Olympics, and his transfer had not yet been fully finalized.

Now everything is finally settled, and the start of the new season of the Bundesliga is not far away.

The new season of the Bundesliga starts at the end of August, and there are still about 10 days left. Li Chenglong must try his best to get in touch with the team.

"Bruce, let me introduce you to the team." Li Chenglong had just arrived at the training ground, and the head coach Hub Stevens was leading the team for training.

Stevens introduced Li Chenglong's new teammates one by one, but in fact he knew most of the team members, after all, they had only played against each other twice a few months ago.

However, the captain of Schalke 04, Hewedes, is something Li Chenglong has never seen before. When he played against Dundee United last season, he happened to be absent due to injury. Otherwise, Li Chenglong would not have come back so easily.

Hewedes gave Li Chenglong the biggest impression of being bald. He was only in his twenties, and the top of his head was sparse, which was almost becoming Mediterranean.

"Bruce, welcome to Schalke."

"It's my pleasure, Captain."

Even though they haven't met each other, they both know each other.

Jackie Chan is Schalke 04's biggest signing this summer, and Höwedes is the captain of Schalke 04. Even if they haven't met each other, they know each other well.

After the meeting, Li Chenglong needs to immediately put into training and integrate into the team as soon as possible.

When Li Chenglong was training with the team, the German reporters finally found out all the details of Li Chenglong's transfer to Schalke 04.

The transfer fee for Li Chenglong to join Schalke 04 is 14 million euros, a relatively low transfer fee, but the transfer contains a high additional clause——

When Jackie Lee next transfers, Dundee United will unconditionally own 48% of his transfer share;

If Jackie Lee has played for Schalke 04 for a long time, then if he has played more than 20 times in a single season, it will be a cumulative season. When the cumulative number reaches four, Schalke 04 will also need to pay Dundee United another 10 million euros, and The transfer split clause will not lapse.

As far as the current situation is concerned, Schalke 04 only spent 14 million euros to introduce Lee Chenglong. This price is not high, and the German media also recognizes it.

However, although "only" 14 million euros, this is already the highest signing record in Schalke 04's team history.

In 2010, Schalke 04 introduced Dutch striker Claes Huntelaar from Serie A AC Milan. At that time, it cost the Schalke 04 club a transfer fee of 14 million euros. This is the previous team history of Schalke 04 Highest signing record.

Now Li Chenglong's direct transfer fee has tied Huntelaar's record.

If Jackie Chan's additional terms take effect in the future, this record will undoubtedly be broken.

Li Chenglong's 14 million euros has also made him the third most expensive player in the Bundesliga signings this summer window.

Bayern Munich spent 40 million to introduce Harvey Martinez from La Liga Athletic Bilbao. This is the transfer bid king of the 2012 Bundesliga summer window, and it is also the highest transfer fee record in the history of the Bundesliga.

Dortmund spent 17.5 million euros from Borussia Borussia to introduce the small rocket Royce, who became popular in the Bundesliga last season, which is the second-highest signing in the Bundesliga summer window.

14 million Lee Jackie is naturally the third highest.

Moreover, Li Chenglong's salary was also found out, which is the second highest in the Schalke 04 team, second only to Huntelaar.

Li Chenglong's annual salary in Schalke 04 is 3.5 million euros, and only Huntelaar with an annual salary of 4 million euros in the team is higher than him.

Under Jackie Chan, the highest paid player in the Schalke 04 team is Captain Höwedes, whose annual salary is 2.8 million euros.

The German media believes that it is acceptable to spend 14 million yuan to introduce Lee Chenglong, but the annual salary of 3.5 million euros is a bit too high.

Li Chenglong signed a four-year contract with Schalke 04. Once it is cancelled, Schalke 04 will lose more than 10 million yuan in salary alone, which is not rational.

Huntelaar, who scored 48 goals in 47 games last season, only received 4 million yuan in annual salary, and only 19-year-old Lee Chenglong received 3.5 million yuan, which is indeed a bit high.

But this was all discussed by Barnett. The guy didn't really want Jackie Lee to leave the UK, so he was not polite at all when it came to asking for salary.

And Schalke 04 desperately hoped to get Jackie Lee, so they had no initiative in counter-offering, which finally led to the current result.

Li Chenglong is not worried, he believes that he will soon be able to prove with his strength that he is fully worthy of that salary.
