114 Leader
"Hello, Mino."
As soon as the phone was connected, Van Gaal squeezed out a smile and greeted him, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.
If it weren't for work, he wouldn't want to deal with vampires like Raiola, and he didn't want to do it once.
"Hello, who are you?" Raiola's lazy voice came from the other side of the phone.
"I'm Louis."
"Louis? Which Louis?"
Van Gaal opened his eyes, was he pretending to be stupid? Who am I, you don’t know?
But Ajax's technical director still suppressed his temper and replied: "Luis van Gaal."
"Oh, Mr. Van Gaal, I didn't expect it to be you, it was so surprising." Raiola spoke in a very shocked tone.
This made Van Gaal, who heard the phone, feel the urge to vomit. God knows what the Italian fat man on the other side of the phone is?
"Okay, I won't say much if you want to say anything, where are you now?"
"My? I'm in Monaco."
"Monaco?" Van Gaal was a little surprised.
"Yes, I have always lived in Monaco. The famous F1 Monte Carlo Raceway is near my home. You can directly view the F1 racing car from the rooftop of my house. If you have the chance, you must come and have a look." The fat Italian man introduced with relish.
But Van Gaal had no interest in this. His biggest hobby in his life was football, followed by golf.
"I'll talk about it if you have time. I want to ask when will you come to Amsterdam when you have time?"
"Oh, is there something wrong?" Raiola asked in confusion.
Van Gaal almost didn't scold him. If there is something wrong, of course, if there is nothing wrong, why would I call you for anything?
Is this an unintentional question?
"After our careful consideration, we think we should negotiate Yang Yang's contract renewal as soon as possible. What do you think?"
"Of course, I wanted to get this matter done in one breath a few days ago. Since you have decided now, I will be with you at any time." Raiola replied without hesitation.
Van Gaal, who was on the phone, was stunned and agreed so readily. Is this like the style of a vampire Raiola?
He always thinks there is something wrong with it?
Sure enough, before he could speak, Raiola's voice came from the other side of the phone again.
I only heard the Italians tsk twice and sighed, "But it will definitely not work in the past few days. I have something to do at home, and I may have to be busy for a few days. There are also some emergency incidents in Italy that need me to deal with quickly. I may have to arrive next..."
Van Gaal didn't listen to what he said again next. He was finally sure that the vampire's brain was not broken.
"Tell me directly when you have time." Van Gaal replied lightly.
"In a few days, I will definitely be free in a few days. I will definitely go to Amsterdam to find you. Let's talk carefully at that time." Raiola said with a smile.
As the saying goes, "Laiora doesn't hit the smiley person, and she apologizes, making it difficult for Van Gaal to have an attack.
Putting aside the different positions, he had to admit that this was a bastard who couldn't hate.
After hanging up the phone, Van Gaal turned around and looked at the game in the stadium through the window. Yang Yang was still running non-stop.
Three to one, Ajax is already basically sure to win.
Suddenly, Van Gaal realized that this time the contract renewal was probably not so easy.
The weekly renewal of the contract of 3,000 euros proposed by Raiola may be just a test. What this vampire really wants to do is to test Ajax's bottom line in treating Yang Yang, and he wants to win the greatest benefit for his players.
There is no doubt that Yang Yang wants to stay in the team. Raiola has never used other teams to hype Yang Yang's contract renewal, which is enough to show their sincerity. However, as Yang Yang's performance becomes more and more outstanding, the initiative in contract renewal will become more and more inclined to the players, and Ajax's negotiation chips must continue to increase.
"It's indeed a cunning fat man!" Van Gaal gritted his teeth and cursed.

Ajax eventually defeated Eindhoven 3-1 at home.
The victory of this peak showdown finally made Ajax temporarily firmly the throne of the league leader.
After the game, 50,000 fans all stood up and gave the players on the court the warmest applause.
After this round, Ajax led Eindhoven by four points in the standings and gained a certain lead in the league championship. However, there are fourteen rounds left before the end of the league, and everything is still unknown.
At the post-match press conference, head coach Ronald Koeman once again named and praised the young player Yang Yang who came on the bench, thinking that his performance was incredible and showed amazing strength in both assists.
"Watching his game, it's hard for anyone to believe that he's just turned seventeen. He's an amazing player. If you work with him, you'll find that he's always the hardest and most diligent person. His progress is so fast that everyone can't believe it."
But Ronald Koeman also mentioned that Yang Yang is still too young and needs to continue to grow and improve.
"For the time being, he is not perfect enough. He should continue to maintain his efforts and enthusiasm, as well as the passion in the game, and most importantly, he needs to continue to grow and improve, to make himself stronger and even more perfect."
Ronald Koeman also mentioned some other players in the team, such as Sneider. The Dutch midfielder's performance in Ajax this season was amazing, and the limelight was not inferior to his teammate Van der Fate, especially his passing and dispatch.
And the Ajax head coach focused on Wesley Songk.
The Belgian striker came to Ajax with the aura of the BBQ shooter king. He was very proficient in both left and right feet, had a very sensitive sense of smell in front of the goal, fast speed, and excellent personal abilities, which made everyone in Ajax full of expectations for him.
But after joining the team, his performance was difficult to satisfy. The coaching staff also tried on the right, middle and left, but in the past period of time, he has basically been fixed on the left and his performance has become more and more outstanding.
Some media even pointed out that the period when Wesley Songk scored frequently happened to be when Yang Yang came on the bench on the right side. After Yang Yang performed well, the most obvious benefit was Wesley Songk.
Ronald Koeman did not give a positive answer, jokingly saying that Fermuren is also the biggest beneficiary because he scored his first goal in his first team debut, and the Belgian and Yang Yang were roommates.
But the head coach of Ajax also admitted that after playing on the wing, the team's frontcourt offense would get more opportunities.

After a difficult victory over Eindhoven, everyone in Ajax couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief while being excited.
After all, he is the number one enemy in the league championship.
But the league is not over yet, and the team will continue to compete on the three fronts of the Dutch Eredivisie, the Dutch Cup and the Champions League, and no one dares to be careless at all, especially when they think of the Champions League knockout opponent Arsenal, which is ushered in at the end of the month, everyone has a heavy feeling of being pressed on their backs by towering mountains.
This Premier League team has not lost in the Premier League so far, and its strength can be seen.
Yang Yang performed well in every game, was younger than everyone, and was low-key. He worked very hard in competitions and training, but was very kind in dealing with people, which made him easily the most popular person in the locker room.
But when he finished taking a shower in the locker room, he smiled and chatted with his teammates, but when he went out, he only saw Maxwell and Fermuren, and not Swedish center Ibrahimovic.
"Where is Zlatan?" Yang Yang was a little surprised.
"It's said that I've taken a step forward." Fermalennu said with a whisper.
Yang Yang was a little surprised. They have been riding on Ibrahimovic's Porsche rides recently, and the Swedish center always waits for them. Why did they leave by themselves tonight?
This is not like the style of a Swedish, he has always liked the most lively.
"Go into my car." Maxwell suggested with a smile.
Maxwell's car is also a sedan provided by Ajax sponsor Fiat, right in the parking lot of DeTok Most.
"What happened?" On the way back to Odkerk, Yang Yang couldn't help but ask Maxwell who was driving in the front row.
"I don't know either." Brazil's left-back shook his head, "He always does this, and he's in a bad mood for a few days every month."
"Are you having a quarrel with Helena?" Yang Yang asked again.
"Not like." Fermall shook his head, "He talked to me about Helena last night, and it didn't seem like he was having a quarrel."
"What's the problem?" Yang Yang frowned, puzzled, "Is it because of his performance in recent times?"
Ibrahimovic's performance in recent times is indeed a bit unsatisfactory. Even though he scored a goal in the Dutch Cup against Feyenoord, the media still accused him, believing that he had missed too many scoring opportunities.
After playing Feyenoord, Ibrahimovic took a rotation. He missed many opportunities against Eindhoven in this game. The team scored three goals, but he did not contribute. Instead, veteran Litmanin and his forward teammate Songk both scored goals.
"There is such a possibility." Maxville nodded, "Raiola has been contacting him with Serie A team, but after the winter break, his performance was a little unimpressed. It was probably because of his condition and he was anxious."
Yang Yang was helpless. He also wanted to help Ibrahimovic, but he couldn't help some things.
Just to mention the past game, before he assisted Litmanin, he glanced at Ibrahimovic. He had already run over. If that ball was passed to the Swedish center, it would definitely be intercepted and steal by the opponent's central defender. Even if he barely held the ball, it would be difficult to create a shooting opportunity.
As for the assist to Wesley Songk with the second kick, it was a quick counterattack. The Swedish center failed to catch up with Yang Yang and Songk. Yang Yang naturally couldn't let Songk in the empty goal pass, so he deliberately stopped and waited for Ibrahimovic?
Of course, the Swedish center shouldn't blame him, but he was not performing well and felt a little arrogant.
Chapter completed!
