The tract period is until May 31st, which is typical for most season tracts. Due to the World Cup in Germany, both La Liga and the Champions League this season will clude in mid-May.
After thh calcutions, the sary offered by Real Madrid for about two months is 200,000 euros after tax, which exceeds Gao Shen's previous expectations. Acc to the current exge rate between the euro and the renminbi, 200,000 euros is roughly equivalent to 2 million yuan. Earning 2 million yuan in two months is a very lucrative traatter how you look at it.
What really surprised Gao Shen was the bonus structure. The signing fee is 100,000 euros, which he receive upon signing the tract. This is also a reward for leading the team to the quarter-finals of the Champions League aing Atletiadrid in the derby.
is the performaed bonus. Currently, Real Madrid ranks sed in the league, and the tract is quite generous. If the team maintains this ranking at the end of the season, Gao Shen will receive an additional 300,000 euros. If the team mao overtake Bara and win the La Liga title, the bonus will reach 1 million euros.
In the Champions League, Real Madrid eliminated Arsenal and reached the quarter-finals. The draw has not yet taken pce, but acc to the tract, if Real Madrid advao the semi-finals, Gao Shen will receive another 500,000 euros. If they reach the final, he will get an additional 1 million euros. Winning the championship would earn him a further 2 million euros.
When Gao Shen saw this tract, his first rea was disbelief, thinking it was too high, not too low. He g Butragueno, wanting to firm if there was something more to it.
But soon, he uood why. In fact, this tract is just good, not exceptional. The median annual sary of head coaches of the 20 teams in La Liga is about 800,000 to 1 million euros. Gao Shen's sary 't pare to the top coaches.
Reports suggest that Real Madrid is in tact with Juventus coach Capello, and the annual sary for Capello's team is 7.5 million euros, which is the value of a top world coach. Gao Shen is seen as a temporary solution, as everyone knows it's almost impossible for him to stay after this season.
For two months, 200,000 euros is quite generous. As for the bonus, maintaining sed p the league brings only 300,000 euros, which is also very challenging, let alone overtaking Bara.
Winning the 1 million euros league championship bonus seems almost impossible. The same is true for the Champions League. Each step forward increases the difficulty. In the quarter-finals, no matter who they face, the oppo's strength will not be muferior to Arsenal, and it might eveougher.
Therefore, the bonus is like a pany's business ission: the more profit you make for the pany, the more they reward you with a small portion. The 2 million euros prize for winning the Champions League seems almost like a joke.
Who would believe that this current Real Madrid team could reach the Champions League final and wile? Gao Shen never set himself such long-term and unattainable goals; he prefers to be realistic.
...
"Is there any problem with the tract?" Butragueno noticed Gao Shen's surprise and asked.
Florentino had asked Redondo to call him, saying the tract fao Shen could be as generous as possible, so Butragueno decided to increase Gao Shen's sary slightly. Could it be that he was still dissatisfied?
Gao Shen shook his head and said, "No, I just think the treatment is a little too good."
After speaking, Gao Shen ughed.
Butragueno saw that Gao Shen seemed sincere and ughed, "Actually, many of us appreciate what you have doh the team in the past ten days and are curious about what you bring to this team ."
"Work hard, Gao. Many of us hope that after this season, you stay at Real Madrid."
Gao Shen smiled and nodded, but he felt bitter inside.
Damn, isn't this the kind of motivational talk I usually give others?
To stay at Real Madrid, one must perform well and gain reition, but the question is, if you perform well and gain reition, who would want to stay at Real Madrid?
Gao Shen is self-aware; this season's turmoil at Real Madrid, bined with the ges brought by his time travel and special abilities, allowed him to bee the head coach of Real Madrid. Otherwise, with his background, how could he possibly bee Real Madrid's head coach?
No matter how well he performs now, after this season, Real Madrid will definitely want to hire a renowned coach.
Besides, coag Real Madrid is thankless. The locker room is full of flicts, the club has high demands, the fans are picky, the public opinion enviro is unfriendly, and the chairman isn't a good person. No matter how you look at it, it's not suitable for a rookie like Gao Shen.
For him, the best development is to gain reition at Real Madrid and then carefully select a team with less pressure to coach as a stepping stone.
As for being Real Madrid's head coach, even if he wants to be the head coa the future, he would o bee famous first and then stage a triumphaurn.
In the short term, it's obviously unrealistic.
...
When Gao Shehe Bernabeu, he was already the official head coach of Real Madrid. Of course, the tract was only initially signed but had legal effect.
As soon as Gao She, he called Fernando Lucas and told him to meet at his home. Then, he called Carlo to inform him about hiring Bueura, which Butragueno had approved.
After making two phone calls, Gao Shen took a taxi back to the Odalesa area.
Back at his rental, he ehe tactical library to study the game against Valencia.
For this match, Real Madrid o rotate the squad.
Zidane, Beckham, Elgra, and even Raul and Gravesen had expended a lot of energy in the midweek game, and these pyers are getting older, making it hard for them to py on the weekend.
This is a on trait among professional pyers. Older pyers have rich experie deing physical fun and slower recovery speed, while younger pyers have better physical dition and faster recovery speed. The true golden age of professional pyers often es when their physical dition and experience achieve a perfect bance.
But most of these Real Madrid pyers have passed that stage.
From Ranieri in the 1990s to Cooper aez ter, Valencia has always been one of the best defeeams in La Liga. So far this season, they have only ceded 21 goals in 26 matches, making them the best defeeam in La Liga.
Their 37 goals rank third in La Liga, behind Bara and Real Madrid. The Bat Legion deserves to be third in the league.
From Real Madrid's perspective, Valencia's defense is strong, but their offense is retively mediocre. Half of their 37 goals came from David Vil, who cost Valencia 10 million euros.
However, the good news is that Vite, known as the stro left winger in Europe, was injured ih round against Real Betis and will likely miss the rest of the season.
As for David Silva, the midfielder Gao Shen admires most, he is still training at Celta Vigo.
If nothing goes wrong, Valencia will still adopt a 4-2-3 formation, making it a tough match.
The problem Gao Shen faow is that the team must rotate, but Real Madrid's rotation may not be strong enough to hold off Valencia away.
...
While studying how to ter Valencia iactical library, Fernando Lucas brought two dinners and came over.
This guy has been visiting Gao Shen frequently, almost treating it as his home.
Gao Shen told him about the pn to send him for training at the club's expense. Lucas was very surprised and looked at Gao Shen in disbelief.
"What? You don't want to go?" Gao Shen was a bit surprised.
"No, of course not. I just didn't expect you to give me su opportunity." Lucas was delighted.
"What's the big deal?" Gao Shen leased with Lucas's response. "You studied eid are naturally good with data. Studying data analysis will be more effective for you. More importantly, this represents the future of professional football."
"Are you sure?"
"Let me put it this way: iure, every team will have at least two or three data and video analysts as standard. Even in the coag teams of all top-level coaches, having a familiar analyst will be standard. What do you think?"
Gao Shen said this so seriously that Lucas believed him. As Gao Shen said, he was giving Lucas a bright and lofty future.
This moved Lucas greatly.
"Don't worry, I'll seize this opportunity. When you bee a world-famous coach, I'll be your analyst." Lucas couldn't help but imagihe future.
Gao Shen ughed and shook his head, thinking, young man, it's easy to dream big.
Is it that easy to bee a world-famous coach?
Benitez, for example, after leaving Real Madrid's sed team, was silent and struggled for many years before making a breakthrough at Tenerife and then Valencia.
Even someone as talented as Guardio took many years of preparation and training after retirement, gradually rising through the ranks before being a successful coach.
There's also the legendary Nagelsmann in German football. Despite his young appearance, he had many years of experien football. After retiring, he gradually moved up from youth teams, eventually gaining experie Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig before coag Bayern Munid beginning to touch the threshold of world-css coag.
Gao Shen is only 25 years old. Being Real Madrid's coach by act is a high starting point, however the foundation is still very fragile. From both a professional and a football perspective, this is extremely precarious. Therefao Shen has a clear uanding of his career and a long-term pn. Even with his exceptional abilities and tactical knowledge, he still o take things step by step to solidify his foundation. Otherwise, if he's not careful, he may end up returning to a to specute in real estate."
