Chapter 526 Ronaldo Returns

In the Champions League final, Ronaldo's performance was not very good, or not very conspicuous.

The Portuguese does have such characteristics. Every game he plays well is in the knockout round.

He has been to the Champions League final several times, and he has won once and lost once in the European Cup final, but his performance in each final was not very good.

Especially in that European Cup final, he got injured before finishing the first half, and Portugal won the European Cup in the end.

It is not terrible to win the championship, but it is embarrassing to be short of someone.

Portugal, without Ronaldo, was able to beat France in the European Cup final, which made many fans believe that Ronaldo is a bastard.

The real situation is naturally not that exaggerated, but Ronaldo's poor performance in the final is in stark contrast to his superb performance in the knockout round, and it is also a fact.

Therefore, even if he didn't perform much in the final, the credit for Real Madrid this season will still be concentrated on him.

If nothing unexpected happens, this year's Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year will probably be won by him again.

Just when Li Ze was envious and full of fighting spirit, something went wrong with Ronaldo.

To be precise, there is a problem with Real Madrid.

After playing the Champions League final, Bell is ready to leave.

His performance in the Champions League final has allowed him to prove that he is still a superstar.

Then, there is no need for him to stay in Real Madrid as a substitute.

For a superstar like him, it's too embarrassing to be a substitute.

Bell wants to go to a team with himself as the core, at least where he can play the absolute main force.

In fact, there are many teams interested in him.

There are even rumors that a Huachao team wants to introduce him, and even offered a weekly salary of 100 million euros for this!
Although Bell has had a lot of injuries over the years, he can play convincingly every time he recovers from injury.

Because he has serious injuries and is not young, Real Madrid can't achieve too high a result.

The giants tentatively made a transfer application to Real Madrid, but Real Madrid rejected it firmly.

Or that Florentino refused.

He made a move that left many people stunned and incomprehensible——

He wants to sell Ronaldo and support Bell to become the core of Real Madrid!
Ronaldo is not young anymore, he is already 33 years old, no one can say how long he can maintain his state.

In fact, when he was at Real Madrid, the Portuguese's performance in the first half of the season was always poor.

In the first half of each season, Ronaldo is always "falling off a cliff" several times by the media.

But in the second half of the season, Cristiano Ronaldo can always regain his glory and show superior performance to prove that he is still a superstar.

It is also because of this that Ronaldo's Real Madrid performed poorly in the league that needed more stability, but performed well in the Champions League, where the knockout rounds were concentrated in the second half of the season.

People in the industry have gradually gotten used to his characteristics, and they don't think there is anything wrong with it.

If Ronaldo can maintain his bravery in the second half of the season, especially in the Champions League knockout round, many people will accept not scoring a single goal throughout the first half of the season.

But Florentino was different.

As the chairman of Real Madrid, he naturally knows the value of Ronaldo.

However, Ronaldo also has a big disadvantage.

Not a shortcoming on the court, but a problem off the court——

His annual salary is too high.

In order to keep Messi, Barcelona gave Messi a terrible annual salary.

In the past, an annual salary of more than 1000 million euros was already at the level of a superstar.

When Li Ze first stepped into Serie A, only Ronaldinho's annual salary in Serie A was at this level, and Ibrahimovic did not reach this level.

In the past ten years, Messi's annual salary has exceeded 5000 million euros!

Of course, as a top superstar, the image endorsement fee can earn more than the annual salary.

In terms of endorsement income, Li Ze also has a great say.

Behind him stands the market of Huaguo, and the annual endorsement fee is firmly at the forefront.

In one year's income, the proportion of annual salary is not so large.

But Ronaldo just wants a salary increase, just like Messi.

The reason is not only to make more money, but also to not be overwhelmed by Messi.

The annual salary symbolizes the status of the player. Ronaldo, who thinks he will not lose to Messi, will certainly not shrink back in the pursuit of the annual salary.

Since he has performed well enough and led the team to win enough trophies, there is no reason not to ask for a salary increase.

On this point, Li Ze is also the same. After winning the league championship this season, he must also ask for a salary increase.

For Ronaldo's request, Florentino refused.

In his view, Ronaldo is not qualified for such a high annual salary with his excellent performance in only half a season.

From Lafayette's point of view, Real Madrid's current results are definitely not due to Ronaldo alone.

But Ronaldo wants to take all the credit for himself, and keeps asking for high salaries like a vampire. Can Lafayette be happy?

On the other hand, Bell, the Welshman is younger than him, and his strength is not weaker than him, but there are not so many things.

In Florentino's view, Bell is the best candidate to replace Ronaldo.

Zidane completely disagrees. Bell and Ronaldo may have similar personal strengths, but the role of their teammate teams is different.

Football is not a one-person competition. Sometimes mental attributes are more important than personal abilities.

If you really want to just look at personal skills, E's technical level is not weaker than him, but the achievements of the two people's careers are simply very different.

In Zidane's view, Ronaldo's role in Real Madrid is far beyond what can be clearly explained by personal ability.

Florentino regards Ronaldo's role so low, which is completely taken for granted as a non-professional football player.

Florentino appeased Zidane, and then resolutely drove Ronaldo out.

Of course, Raul, who sacrificed a lot for the team, was also merciless when he drove him away.

Although Ronaldo broke various scoring records in Real Madrid, won many championships, and became a legendary superstar.

But in the hearts of Real Madrid fans, his team's historical status may be far inferior to Raul.

Florentino drove him away without much resistance.

Ronaldo's departure from Real Madrid is just another proof that football is just a business.

Among the players abandoned by Real Madrid over the years, Ronaldo is hardly the most regrettable one.

After the news of the quarrel between the two sides came out, the team that was originally trying to chase Bell changed its target in an instant.

Bale is very good, but there is still a little gap with C Robbie.

Li Ze also remembered at this time that Ronaldo left this season and went to Juventus.

His arrival caused such a big change in the original trajectory. Real Madrid has not yet won the Champions League for three consecutive times. As a result, Ronaldo was still driven away.

Although Ronaldo's fans may not think that he was driven away, the Portuguese was indeed a bit embarrassed when he left Real Madrid.

Judging from the reaction of Real Madrid fans later, there are many Real Madrid fans who don't want him to stay.

Later, I missed Ronaldo again, but it was because Real Madrid's performance in the next two seasons was too poor.

At least when driving away, many Real Madrid fans thought it was nothing.

The indifference of the Galaxy Battleship can be seen from this.

Just when Li Ze thought that the original trajectory would not change, and was still lamenting what happened to Ronaldo, it was rumored that Ronaldo had signed a contract with Manchester United.

Just when Li Ze thought it was another fake news, Ronaldo publicly admitted the news.

After the press conference, Ronaldo sent a text message to Li Ze.

"I'm looking forward to meeting you again, see you, Shuanghong!"
