Episode 201 Renewal of Contract

Hyunwoo meets with the team’s key players and renews their contracts.

The first thing he looked for was Sala.

“Is this a competition for the starting position?”

“okay.”

Sala looked puzzled after hearing Hyunwoo’s question.

“Wouldn’t it be wiser to think of a way to score one more goal at a time like that?”

It was a typical Salah answer, one that takes pride in its forward position.

‘but.’

Unlike other players who are worried about the appearance of rising candidates.

Players like Salah and De Bruyne, who showed overwhelming performances, didn’t need to be conscious of such things.

Kimmich, who decided to leave our team, is a great player, but Salah and De Bruyne are even better.

“Then we have to renew the contract.”

“Now, we need to negotiate with the agent….”

Sala gives a classic answer.

But Hyunwoo knew how to tease Sala.

“I’ve devised a tactic that centers around you for the next season… so there’s nothing I can do about it.”

“I was thinking of burying my bones in Barnett, Director.”

When the topic of scoring came up, Salah changed his attitude as if nothing had happened.

Hyunwoo found the temperature difference funny and laughed quietly.

“Don’t worry. These are terms that will never disappoint you. I’ll send you the details of the contract renewal through my agent.”

After having such a positive conversation with Salah, Hyunwoo went straight to find De Bruyne.

‘De Bruyne might not have it easy.’

What happened two years ago was still vivid.

Barnett, who showed an overwhelming performance by achieving the treble at the time.

There was no doubt that a Ballon d’Or winner would come from Barnet.

There are two players expected to win awards.

It was Salah and De Bruyne.

[Mohamed Salah]

League: 34 points, 11 assists

Champions League: 11 goals, 5 assists

Total: 45G 16A

[Kevin De Bruyne]

League: 16 points, 21 assists

Champions League: 5 goals, 8 assists

Total: 21G 29A

Salah is ahead in terms of stat volume, while De Bruyne exerts influence throughout the game.

Although they were both players he cherished, it was inevitable that Hyunwoo’s heart would lean towards one side.

‘De Bruyne should get it…’

It wasn’t that he particularly favored Kevin.

Unlike Salah, who wasn’t particularly keen on winning the Ballon d’Or, expectations were high for De Bruyne.

However, as was the case in history, Belgium lost to France in the World Cup and made it to the semifinals.

De Bruyne, who finished on the Ballon d’Or podium, could not help but applaud Salah as he received the award.

Right after the awards ceremony. On the plane to England.

Kevin’s face turned red after drinking beer, which he doesn’t usually drink.

He finished by saying, ‘Soccer… is difficult…’ and banged his head on the table.

Although he continued to show good performances, Hyunwoo couldn’t help but be worried because he failed to make it into the Ballon d’Or rankings due to a minor injury.

‘If you want to change your environment… .’

Hyunwoo, who poisons your heart.

Unlike other players who readily accepted the transfer.

Kevin is an irreplaceable player.

Even if his contract period ends and he becomes a free agent, I have no intention of selling him.

Because there is currently no player comparable to his class.

But his worries were unfounded.

“Of course we have to renew the contract.”

“You didn’t even mention the conditions?”

“I will stay at Barnet until I win the Ballon d’Or.”

“Then what if I win the Ballon d’Or?”

“After that, I watched what the director did.”

“Look at this?”

Hyunwoo, who tried hard to look angry, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

It gave a glimpse into how much De Bruyne trusts himself.

“There will be a lot of new faces this season.”

“Is it rebuilding?”

“okay.”

Hyunwoo nodded.

“Next season will be busy, Captain.”

When renewing a contract, the most important thing to pay attention to is the weekly salary system.

No player would prefer someone less skilled than him to be paid a higher amount.

The highest-paid player at Barnet was Jamie Vardy.

He has been with the team since the lower league days. He was a player who consistently scored goals as a striker.

However, now that the team is gradually rebuilding and its skills are gradually declining.

It is impossible to promise the same conditions as before.

Hyunwoo, who went to find Jamie Boddy, cautiously opened his mouth.

“Your salary won’t decrease significantly, but I can’t promise you the highest salary in the team like before.”

The highest salary within the team is a promise to treat the players best.

It was a matter of player pride.

That’s why Hyunwoo hesitates.

“If you want to leave the team… tell me honestly. I’ll do my best to send you to the team you want.”

Hyunwoo, who usually tries to remain cool towards his players, couldn’t do that to Body.

Because he was a founding father who created the Barnett of today.

“….”

Jamie Vardy, with his usual glum expression.

“Director.”

“huh?”

“Money isn’t important to me. I already have enough to live on for the rest of my life.”

“That’s true.”

“I just want to play for a long time, and if possible, I want more people to remember me.”

“….”

Hyunwoo didn’t say anything.

Because I knew that this was the body’s way of comforting itself.

“Director.”

“huh?”

“Can Barnett be a greater team?”

“of course.”

After hearing Hyunwoo’s assertion, Body nodded.

“Okay then. It’s okay even if you’re not a starter.”

“…you will be remembered by the people as a legend of Barnett.”

At that moment, Body smiled brighter than ever.

Articles from German media outlets including Bild and Kicker were enough to heat up the transfer market.

Outside of their promotion season, Barnet have not been an active team in the transfer market.

The departure of Kimmich, one of the key members of Barnet, means that the transfer market policy of Barnet has changed.

Big clubs simultaneously approached the target they had been drooling over.

A pub located in Barnet town centre. Peter’s House.

In this place where local fans often gather, there have been more loud noises recently.

“Aren’t you organizing the players too complacently?”

“Hey, the board must have thought about it.”

“No matter what.”

The opposition party was pounding their chests with their fists, feeling frustrated.

“Selling players? Of course you can. Then bring in a replacement player. There are no articles about recruiting players, only news about selling players.”

Many fans nodded their heads at this.

Of course, there were some who opposed this.

“How many promising players are on loan right now? If we want to give them a chance, we need to reorganize the roster.”

“No. How big is the difference between a prospect and an immediate player? How many guys fail in the big leagues?”

“But if we’re going to recruit an ambiguous player….”

The debate between the two sides became heated, and shouting was heard.

The one who ended this fight was a guy sitting alone in the corner drinking beer.

“Stop. Stop!”

“….”

The pub became quiet for a moment.

Groan, groan, groan—

“Who is that person?”

“Don’t you know Charles?”

“Charles?”

“Yeah. The guy who single-handedly subdued the West Ham hooligans who were causing a ruckus.”

The leader symbolizing Barnett’s strong supporters. Everyone’s eyes were on Charles.

“I understand there are many complaints. What fan would be happy that their team’s key players are leaving?”

“….”

“But who do you think our director is? It’s Kim!”

People nodding their heads to his words.

“Kim is always thinking a few steps ahead. She must have a plan.”

“Yeah. Surely the board would not have done it on their own? They must have done it with Kim’s consent.”

Charles wiped the beer from his mouth with his sleeve and continued speaking.

“Manchester United manager Ferguson also carried out several rebuilds during his tenure. Man United fans trusted him and waited for him. Even the Manchester country bumpkins waited for him. What if we, the gentlemen of London, can’t trust Kim?”

The pub, which had been full of negativity, was soon filled with positive voices.

“Yeah, yeah. Kim will rebuild in no time.”

“If it’s Kim, I can wait three years.”

“Three years is a little bit….”

“Hey, when was the time we were in the 5th division?”

Fans who had been questioning Barnett’s actions once again maintained their composure.

Because their trust in their director was absolute.

“What happened to what I asked you to do?”

“for a moment.”

Hyunwoo asked Anthony to check with other players about their intention to renew their contracts.

Anthony showed a list of players who had expressed interest in transferring.

“Boring, Trippier, Sane….”

“Most of them were worried about their starting positions. Other clubs also showed interest.”

“Hmm.”

“Chelsea is interested in Kante. He wants to stay with the team. However, he has been suffering from so many injuries recently that I wonder if it would be better to sell him.”

Hyunwoo shook his head.

“He said he doesn’t necessarily want to leave the team, so it doesn’t seem necessary to send him away.”

Kante has been showing signs of weakness lately.

Normally, Hyunwoo would have considered selling it too.

‘They say that if you come back strangely, you’ll do well.’

Most players need time to regain their form after returning from injury.

But Kante often did well when he played.

‘I think you should think of him as a substitute rather than a starter.’

“Let’s sort out the players who want to leave the team.”

“Are you sure it’s okay?”

“Yes, but you have to pay the full price.”

Since there are still two years left on his contract, there will be no problem in asking for a higher salary.

“Trippier in particular can be called more expensive.”

“why?”

“There are also English homegrown players… and above all, the Manchester United board are fools.”

Anthony was immediately convinced.

After confirming the sale target, Hyunwoo immediately started looking for a replacement resource.

Barnett’s promising youngsters are out on loan across Europe.

Of course, given Barnett’s depth of players, there were many players who showed enough skill to play in the PL, although it may not be possible for them to immediately secure a starting position.

‘So is this what the player squad will be like?’

FW: Jejus, Vardy, Salah

+SUB: Leang, Wilson, Holland, Traore

MF: Bruno Fernandes, Rodri, De Bruyne

+SUB: Kante, Rice, Ward-Prowse, Jude Bellingham

DF: Robertson, Rudiger, Van Dijk, Militao

+SUB: Downing, Diaz, Kim Min-jun, Hakimi

GF: Alison

+SUB : Vicario

But now, there are fans who are feeling a sense of crisis.

You will realize this once the season starts.

Barnett’s golden age is still ongoing.
