Chapter 17 Uncle is back

The day after the team resumed normal training, Li Mo's brother-in-law suddenly came back and rushed directly to the club after getting off the plane. After training, Li Mo saw his brother-in-law waving to him from the sidelines.

"Okay, I've seen reports about your son in Spain. He scored four goals in three games. He has a bright future!"

The uncle's conversation was still so elegant, and Li Mo didn't bother to complain. He just said curiously: "There is news about me in Spain? No, they also pay attention to the second-tier league?"

"Isn't this because of your status as an Oriental player? You are still so young. Now the media across Europe has reported on you. Although it is not a hot news, it has made a little splash."

After Uncle Li Mo finished speaking, he held Li Mo's shoulders and walked out of the training base: "Let's go, it's just time for dinner. I will take you to have a big dinner tonight. What do you call that friend of yours?"

"Harry, Harry Maguire." Li Mo reminded.

"Ah, yes, call him too, and I'll treat you to a big dinner!"

After a while, Li Mo took Maguire and got into his uncle's car, and the three of them headed towards the center of Sheffield. In the car, Li Mo briefly introduced his uncle to Maguire and also talked about

Tell me about the time when you came to England with your brother-in-law.

Li Mo's brother-in-law is called Li Lijun. He is 41 years old this year. He spent a year as an exchange student in Spain during college. After graduation, he went to Spain to do business with friends he met during the exchange period. The first few years were miserable, and the business

There has been no improvement, but after studying the market for several years, Li Lijun turned around and started a furniture export business in Spain with his friends. He soon accumulated his first pot of gold, and slowly expanded the domestic market and made a lot of money.

A lot of money.

Because he likes football, Li Lijun invested in a local football team in his hometown at the beginning of the century. Although he never made a name for himself, it was still an idea of ​​Li Lijun's and it was under his influence that Li Mo fell in love with playing football.

, and has been training with his hometown team.

Li Mo showed his football talent in his previous life, but his parents' ideas were still relatively traditional and they never agreed with him taking a career path. Although Li Lijun supported him, Li Mo finally chose to study hard, but this matter

It became his eternal regret, so much so that when his work didn't go well later, he often thought about it, if he had been more determined when he was young, would his life have been different?

As a result, the sudden appearance of the dream machine really brought him back to the crossroads of his life choices. Li Mo was naturally determined to pursue a career path, but he did not want to waste his life in the big dye vats in China. He negotiated with his parents many times, and Li Lijun

After repeated assurances, he came to England.

After listening to Li Mo's story, Maguire couldn't help but have a little more admiration for Li Mo. Not everyone has the courage to pursue their dreams in a foreign country, especially at such a young age. At least Maguire asked himself whether he could do it.

It is also remarkable that Li Lijun insisted on transporting Li Mo to Sheffield United for training every day for four years. Because of this incident, Li Lijun basically handed over his business to his friends, and he lost countless money.

number.

Fortunately, Li Mo kicked out and did not waste his talent. Everything Li Lijun paid has meaning.

The restaurant Li Lijun ordered was not too far away. It only took about twenty minutes to drive there. While waiting for the meal, he also explained the reason why he came back so soon.

The management of Sheffield United contacted him and wanted to re-sign a contract with Li Mo. The previous professional contract did not set liquidated damages. Although Li Mo had always been favored by the team and the salary offered was in line with his age, now

It seems too low.

If Li Mo can maintain his current performance in the remaining games of this season, many teams will make offers, and Sheffield United will be very passive by then.

Li Mo had always been helped to negotiate all matters with the club by Li Lijun. After receiving the news from Sheffield United this time, involving Li Mo's future, Li Lijun did not dare to delay and rushed back quickly.

But Li Lijun is also troubled now. He is not a professional agent, and he has no way to understand the salary situation of major European leagues. He can only ask Li Mo for his opinion first, and then try his best to help Li Mo win a new contract.

condition.

"Dad, you can take care of this matter. As long as the club is sincere about salary and so on, don't sign for too long. Oh, by the way! Help me try to get as much bonus as possible, such as goals, assists and winning bonuses. I can strive for more of these."

one time."

Li Mo himself doesn't care very much. His career has just started. Sheffield United is still his home club, and the club has always respected him. He feels that the salary is worthy of his performance, and naturally he will not talk too much, and

The most important thing now is to play games stably. This is what he values. As long as he performs well, the club itself will be eager to improve his treatment.

The conversation between the two did not avoid Maguire, and Maguire did not find it interesting. Good forwards have always been the most valued by teams in the professional arena. No matter which club has trained a talented forward, it will definitely be

If you find a way to retain him, Li Mo's performance will naturally be worthy of a new contract.

"But Harry, I feel like the club is going to talk to you about a new contract soon. Will your father still come to the club to talk about it then?"

Li Mo suddenly asked Maguire, and Maguire nodded: "Yes, my father has always been in charge of my contract, but recently some agencies have been in contact with me."

Hearing this, Li Lijun also said to Li Mo: "I was just about to tell you this. Let's find a professional agent after a while. It's okay now, but your business contracts and contracts with the club will definitely need to be more professional in the future."

Someone will be responsible.”

Li Mo nodded. He had naturally considered this matter, but there was no need to worry. When he was still in the youth training echelon, many agents came to him, but he rejected them all, because most of these agents only

He has some connections in England, which will not be of much help to his career planning and subsequent career development. He has some ideas, but he may still need to wait for some time.

When his performance gets better and his fame gets better, better agencies will naturally contact him.

Thinking of this, he patted Maguire on the shoulder and said: "We have just started, so don't be in a hurry. When we succeed in reaching the Super League, better agents will come to us for cooperation, and we might be able to sign the same one by then."

broker."

Maguire feels that Li Mo's proposal is good. He is also a genius and has confidence in his own ability. When he becomes more famous later, there will definitely be better choices. It is indeed a bit early to sign with a brokerage company now.

Moreover, if he signs with the same agent as Li Mo in the future, then maybe he can always play in the same team as Li Mo.

While he was thinking about it, the waiter came over with a dining cart, put the three people's meals away, opened a bottle of red wine for Li Lijun, and then went down to get ready.

Maguire hasn't eaten out for a long time since he lived with Li Mo. Although eating nutritious meals cooked by Li Mo or his master every day is good for the body, the taste is really hard to describe. Today I can finally feel full.

Tasteful, he opened the cover of the dinner plate with great expectation, only to see several large pieces of cooked fish and beef stacked together, with some green vegetables and some black pepper sauce placed next to them.

It looks quite rich, with meat and vegetables, and the portion is large, but the style is wrong! Why is it that Uncle Li Mo only has roast beef rib eye and mushrooms that look delicious on his plate? He and Li Mo

Mo's plate only contains boiled meat and vegetables?

"Oh, I asked my brother-in-law to specially tell the chef to make it. You can just eat it. Tsk, this sauce is too much and it is not clean at all. I will make you a nutritious meal tomorrow. I will deal with it tonight and return it tomorrow morning.

You have to continue training. Eat early and go back early."

Li Mo explained to Maguire, and then started cooking wildly with the meat and vegetables on the plate.

Maguire felt that the animal was completely hopeless. If he continued to eat like this, he was worried that his sense of taste would begin to deteriorate. Alas, he didn't know when he would be able to eat fish and chips again.

"Hey, aren't you hungry? If you're not hungry, give me something to eat. I feel like I'm not enough."

Li Mo looked at Maguire in a daze and moved to drag his plate. However, Maguire seemed to wake up the moment he stretched out his hand. He subconsciously protected the plate with one hand, and then lowered his head with a look of grief and indignation.

Eat as if you are eating someone.

Li Lijun took a sip of red wine and looked at the two young boys in front of him. They were able to restrain themselves when they went out to eat. They ate so healthily. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Boys can be taught."
