Chapter 54
After the four-day Genius Day, De Tokmoster is still busy.

The new season is coming soon, the first team must actively prepare for the game, and Ronald Koeman must always worry about the phone call from the Amsterdam Arena, for fear that whichever call is to inform him, he will lose another player.

Last season was empty-handed, and this season's performance pressure is not small. This is also transmitted from the management to the coaching staff to the players. No one can relax. Everyone is conscientious and does not dare to be careless.

Regarding Manchester United's poaching of Trabelsi, Barcelona wanting to get van der Vaart, a Serie A giant coveting Zlatan Ibrahimovic... There are many transfer news in the newspapers.

The youth academy is relatively quiet.

The technical director Van Gaal held a high-level meeting of the youth academy on the second day after the end of the talent day. The main content was to discuss some players who stood out from the talent day and the lineup of players from all echelons in the new season.

As early as July, during the training period of the first team, the first team of Ajax has officially issued a transfer, and several players such as Ryan Babel, Maduro, Tom Demour, Daniel Driedl and Niklas Miteja were transferred into the first team.

Among these players, only Maduro is a midfielder, and all the others are wingers. Except for Niklas Mitya, who is left-footed but can play right-winger, the rest are all right-footed players, including Ryan Babel, who is used to playing left-winger.

From Ronald Koeman's draft list, everyone can easily guess his intentions, that is, he is full of worries about the right winger position in the new season, and the loss of Van der Meyde makes him very worried, even if there are already many players in this position, including Pienaar and Sneijder.

The first team suddenly transferred a large number of players, resulting in a serious shortage of personnel in the second team. Van Basten also had to temporarily transfer a group of players from the youth academy to join the team, including the central defender Thomas Vermaelen who was recalled from Belgium this season.

"I just discussed with Ronald that several young players, including Ryan Babel, Maduro and Tom Demour, are currently not up to the requirements of the first team and will return to the second team."

At the beginning of the meeting, technical director Van Gaal announced the results of his discussions with Ronald Koeman.

"But those few players, plus Thomas Vermaelen, Emmanuel Nursen and Lars de Gren are all shortlisted for the first team and could be called into the first team at any time."

After the first team let go of captain Qi Wu, there was a vacancy in the position of central defender. Although after the introduction of Escuder, the first team had three central defenders, but Heitinga was only 19 years old.

Both Vermaelen and Lindgren are young talents in the center back. Among them, Vermaelen was recruited into the second team by Van Basten immediately after the game because of his outstanding performance against Almere in the amateur match. It is normal for Koeman to want to call them at any time.

It is very difficult for Ajax to retain people nowadays. When there is a vacancy in the first team, the first thing that comes to mind is to recruit people from the second team and the youth team.

Van Basten was very aware of Ajax's mode of operation. After hearing Van Gaal's arrangement, he didn't say much, and agreed on the spot, but at the same time he also put forward his own requirements.

"I want that Yang Yang."

After hearing this, Van Gaal was secretly happy, but his face remained calm, but he looked at other people including Tony Browns Slots, Luther Carroll and Patrick Ladrew.

"Yang Yang performed very well in the Genius Day event. Whether it was the basic assessment in the morning or the match in the afternoon, he was one of the best players. I think he has the strength to enter the second team."

Chief scout Tony Browns Slots pondered for a moment, seeing no one spoke, he took the initiative to express his opinion.

"I also agree with Tony's judgment. Yang Yang really needs a higher platform to challenge himself and improve his level." Patrick Ladru also agreed.

Luther Carroll thought for a while, "I also support it, and I even think we can consider putting him on the special training list."

Everyone present was stunned, even Van Gaal and Van Basten, who were optimistic about Yang Yang, were a little surprised.

The so-called special training is a traditional practice of the Ajax youth training camp, which means to focus on training a certain player. For example, a special coach will be arranged to conduct one-on-one special training for him, and a targeted training plan will be arranged according to his strengths and weaknesses. These are all to help players improve as quickly as possible.

But those who can get this kind of special treatment are generally talented players like Van der Vaart, Sneijder, and Ryan Babel. Yang Yang doesn't look like that kind of genius.

Van Gaal glanced at the reactions of everyone present, thought for a while, and said, "It's okay to enter the second team, and then consider entering the special training list, but the scouting department must pay close attention to Yang Yang's training and competition."

The meaning of this sentence is that it is not included temporarily, but it is considered to be included.

It should be said that this is also a compromise solution.

"If everyone has no objections, then I will formally sign the document and arrange for him to report and participate in the team's joint training as soon as possible. The logistics department should also make proper arrangements as soon as possible."

…………

…………

Two days later, Yang Yang received the news from Ajax when he came back from training in the skateboard park and went to the Chinese restaurant for lunch. In addition to his scout Fred Arroyo, there was also a female employee named Priscilla Jansen who brought him the news.

According to Arroyo's introduction, she is a handyman in Ajax's logistics department, who is responsible for logistics work, including properly handling the placement of foreign players.

They had been waiting in the Chinese restaurant for more than an hour, and had a lot of conversations with their uncle Shen Ming. Among them, Shen Ming, who was also Yang Yang's parents, was most concerned about Yang Yang's studies. They didn't want Yang Yang to give up his studies too early.

At this point, Ajax offered two sets of plans. One is that Yang Yang will continue to study at the Bakken Academy in Almere, but since Yang Yang is only one Ajax youth player in Almere, it is difficult for the club to arrange a special car to pick him up. At that time, someone will have to take Yang Yang to De Tokmoorster for training every day.

Another option is to enroll in a school arranged by Ajax. This school is also a well-known school in the southeast metropolitan area of ​​Amsterdam. Almost all Ajax players from other places study in this school. Every day there will be a club bus to pick up and drop players off to De Tokmost.

"There is a conflict between the training time of the second team and the school's class time. Therefore, no matter which plan it is, Yang Yang will only have half a day of class at school. After the lunch break, he will gather at the club from 02:30 to about [-]:[-], and he will train and eat at the club during the period from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-]." Priscilla Jansen reminded.

"But in this way, won't the study be delayed?" Shen Ming asked anxiously.

Yang Yang's parents have only one requirement, that there must be no delay in studying.

Jansen smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this. The school we have chosen has a long-term cooperation with us, and the education level will definitely not be lower than that of Bakken Academy. Although we missed the afternoon class, our youth training camp will hire more than ten professional culture teachers to teach the players specifically to ensure that he will not miss his homework."

"Not only that, we will keep in close contact with the school. Once a player's cultural class performance declines, we will immediately stop all his training and competition until he improves his academic performance again. We will also keep in touch with you at any time on this point. It will definitely not affect his study."

After hearing this, Shen Ming felt a little relieved. He believed that Ajax was responsible, but he felt deeply embarrassed about the choice of the two plans, and couldn't help but look at his nephew.

Yang Yang is also frowning, and is also thinking about this issue.

The first plan is undoubtedly the most suitable. He is already familiar with everything in Almere, including study and life, but the problem is that it is very troublesome to pick up and drop off every day. After all, Almere is more than 20 kilometers away from De Tokmost, and the round trip time happens to be lunch and dinner time. The restaurant will be very busy and cannot be separated from people.

As for the second plan, it will undoubtedly have to leave Almere and move to the southeast new town of Amsterdam.

Perhaps seeing Yang Yang and Shen Ming's embarrassment, Jason smiled again, and introduced: "In the first plan, the club will provide a monthly transportation subsidy, and in the second plan, the club will also help rent the house and pay the rent, but the players of the second team may have to share the rent with other teammates. The location is usually near De Tokmoorster."

Yang Yang looked at his uncle Shen Ming, and thought about it again.

Ajax helps to rent a house and will pay the rent at the same time. It doesn’t matter if you share the rent with teammates, just be an extra companion. Anyway, he spends most of his time training, and after signing the contract, he can receive a salary of [-] euros from the club every week, which is enough for his daily expenses.

This salary is considered very low in the club. Even young rookies like Heitinga and De Jong in the first team have been raised to more than [-] euros after contract renewals. Van der Vaart even received the club's maximum salary of [-] euros.

But no matter what, at least Yang Yang can support himself.

"I'll transfer to another school." After Yang Yang thought for a while, he made a decision.

This is also his deliberate decision.

Uncle Shen Ming is also aware of the current situation, and feels that transferring to another school is the best choice at present. After all, he really has no way to take Yang Yang to De Tokmost every day.

"Well, I will immediately communicate with the school and the Almere club, and complete all the procedures as soon as possible, so that the start of the new semester will not be delayed." Jason has obviously handled similar matters many times, and said very confidently.

When Yang Yang thought of leaving Almere and his uncle's family, he still felt somewhat reluctant, but he was looking forward to his upcoming challenge even more, and he was eager to prove himself again in Ajax.
