Star Card System

Pogba is satisfied with the salary increase.

But Mourinho is starting to have a headache.

Such high-paid players will be even harder to manage in the future.

Originally, he was thinking about strictly managing the team in the new season, especially Pogba and Martial.

Now that the two have renewed their contracts with high salaries, how to manage them in the future?

It’s really a headache...

Manchester United’s generosity is only for these young players, especially offensive players, and it is not so friendly to some people.

This season, two players’ contracts are about to expire, and there is only one year left.

Right back Valencia, midfielder Herrera.

Although Manchester United is very generous to Pogba and Martial, it is a bit fussy about Valencia and Herrera.

Regarding the renewal of the two, the club did not even take the initiative to talk about it.

It stands to reason that since they are talking about the renewal together, they should talk about it together.

But no.

In the end, Valencia’s agent found Manchester United.

And Manchester United is not very concerned about the renewal of the 33-year-old Valencia.

Even if the salary is reduced, there is no plan to keep him.

This made the veteran a little disappointed.

Finally, they did not reach a new contract with Valencia this summer.

Next summer, Valencia will leave the team.

And Herrera was very dissatisfied with the club. He even told his agent not to take the initiative to talk to the club about the contract renewal.

In the end, I don’t know whether the club forgot or didn’t care at all. Anyway, it was as if the contract renewal of Herrera didn’t exist.

Herrera also asked his agent to help him contact his next club in advance.

Anyway, he has the honor of six championships, and Herrera’s competitive level and professional attitude are obvious to all. He has no shortage of admirers, and most of them are giants.

This made Mourinho even more dissatisfied, and he even had another quarrel with the club’s sports department.

Valencia and Herrera are very important to the team.

Even if there is a young Dalot now, it needs veterans to lead and gain experience.

After all, the Portuguese teenager is only 19 years old and has not seen too many big scenes.

And Herrera is in the golden period of his career and is in good shape.

Only a fool would let such a player leave on a free transfer.

But many things are not decided by Mourinho, and he can only accept the reality.

Mourinho is worried about the future of the team, and Xia Xing is also full of worries.

The departure of the three veterans makes Xia Xing very reluctant.

The two captains and Ibrahimovic are very important to Manchester United.

The competitive level is one aspect, and the more important is the spiritual level.

In the current Manchester United lineup, this fighting spirit of the Red Devils needs to be passed on.

And after they leave, Manchester United lacks the blood of the Red Devils of the Mesozoic era.

Although he will definitely become the new captain of the team, even so, his deterrence in the team is still not enough, far less than Rooney and Ibrahimovic.

The new season is coming, and the team is full of big names. Pogba and Martial may not be convinced by themselves as the new captain.

No, they will definitely not be convinced.

These things are not things that can be solved by relying on personal skills and personal charm.

Some people's character and personality are innate and cannot be changed the day after tomorrow.

Without several veterans, Xia Xing is under great pressure to manage the team in the new season.

Carrick stayed in the team as an assistant coach, which comforted Xia Xing.

This is still a spiritual problem, and the competitive problem is also huge.

Xia Xing knows more about Mourinho's worries than him, and even feels more uncomfortable.

The most awkward thing about the lack of good teammates is the players on the field, that is, the captain Xia Xing.

Fred came in the midfield, with excellent running ability and comprehensive offensive and defensive skills, which is not bad.

But the striker is in trouble.

Without Ibrahimovic and Rooney at once, it is very troublesome to go in the new season.

Lukaku can't support it alone, and his control of the big scene is not enough.

Sanchez's state is ups and downs, and he is older.

Rashford has potential and talent, but still lacks stability.

Martial, forget it, skip it.

Manchester United's attack line in the new season will definitely have a lot of trouble...

Originally, this summer was an easy summer for Xia Xing.

After all, he didn't have national team competitions, but he was not easy either.

Various business activities are coming one after another, shoulder to shoulder, and overwhelming.

Although Xia Xing doesn't like these business activities, this is his only way and the only way for the company's development.

Although there is Alyona's external support, Xia Xing must also come forward on many occasions.

After all, he is the number one figure in the company and the hottest star in international football.

Especially after leading the team to win the honor of six championships, Xia Xing is now the most shining cherry on the big cake of international football.

Even the French team that won the World Cup cannot cover up Xia Xing's brilliance.

Business elites, political bigwigs, football executives, and upper-level figures in various fields have become Xia Xing's guests.

No, it should be said that Xia Xing has become their guest of honor.

As Xia Xing's reputation improves, the company's economic strength has also risen.

He really has no shortage of money now.

Last year, the company's annual income was around 2 billion euros, which has doubled several times and has grown rapidly.

So Xia Xing doesn't care about his income in the club.

If he wanted, he could even consider buying Manchester United in a few years.

So before the Champions League final, when the club approached him to discuss contract renewal, he didn't even ask for too much salary increase, but just extended the contract to the summer of 2022.

Even his salary was not as good as Pogba's salary increase later.

But Xia Xing didn't care.

Having money means being willful.

He just wants to play well and enjoy the joy of football now.

As for making money, let's talk about it after retirement.

Anyway, the company is now controlled by Alyona.

Before the team training date, Xia Xing returned to Manchester in advance.

There are some matters about the company's business activities that need to be dealt with.

After dealing with the relevant matters, Xia Xing held a small-scale dinner at his home.

Those who attended the dinner were all acquaintances.

Mourinho.

Mendes.

Carrick.

Perrin.

Including Alyona's siblings and Xia Xing.

There were seven people in total, no outsiders.

Xia Xing did not cook for this meal, but had a traditional Chinese-style barbecue in the yard.

All the raw materials are the best, and the seasonings are all airlifted from China, with the original flavor.

Xia Xing grilled the broth himself, and Alyona assisted him virtuously.

Although the relationship between the two has not been confirmed yet, everyone has tacitly accepted the relationship, including themselves.

It's just that Xia Xing is a bit dull in terms of feelings and is not very good at expressing himself. Alyona is not in a hurry to urge him, and the two of them just enjoy the intimate state.

Anyway, with a top female businessman like Alyona around, no vixen will be blind enough to get close to Xia Xing.

You know, Alyona even has connections with the British Razor Gang and the Italian Mafia.

The seven people were happy and talked about interesting things in life.

But the topic still unconsciously turned to football... (End of this chapter)
