With the official announcement of Leicester City's contract extension with Ling Feng, the "Where is Ling Feng going?" transfer turmoil has officially come to an end.
The club’s official website and social media have become a place for fans to release their inner joy and excitement:
"Nice! Give the club a thumbs up!"
“Great renewal!”
"I knew Ling would stay!"
"Well done!"
Seeing the number of likes and comments on the official announcement soaring like a rocket, exceeding 100,000 in just one hour, the club suddenly felt that this contract extension was a wise choice!
This contract extension can be said to be a win-win-win situation.
The club retains Ling Feng, a young player with extraordinary potential, and the possibility of earning lucrative transfer fees in the future;
Fans will support the club even more when they see talents from their youth training remaining;
The player himself has also received a satisfactory salary package and is willing to continue to work hard for the team!
Perhaps the only losers in this contract extension are the other Premier League clubs who missed out on Ling Feng...
After completing the contract renewal, when bidding Mendes farewell, Ling Feng did not forget to express his gratitude to the agent:
"Thank you very much for your service, Mr. Mendez."
"You're welcome, this is my job. Next, it depends on your performance on the court..."
It is worth mentioning that in addition to generous contract benefits, Mendes also secured a signing fee of 500,000 pounds for Ling Feng!
Half a million pounds!
This is definitely a huge sum of money for Ling Feng now!
If he was still earning a weekly salary of 100 per week, it would take 5,000 weeks to earn that much money.
Even after the salary increase, it would take him thirty-four weeks to earn so much money!
However, Ling Feng did not feel that he suddenly became rich.
Since he did not have a personal bank account, his weekly salary was always paid into his mother's account.
Therefore, when the club transferred the signing fee of 500,000 pounds into Julia's account, Julia was immediately shocked when she received the bank information on her mobile phone.
After discussing it with Lingshan, she immediately called her son.
"Mom, that wasn't someone else's wrong remittance. It was the signing fee given to me by the club."
"What's the signing fee? It's half a million yuan?!"
"Mr. Mendes helped me fight for it. Professional players do this when they sign a new contract..."
After explaining, Ling Feng did not forget to share the good news with his parents about his contract renewal and salary increase.
Both Lingshan and Julia were very happy about their son's decision to stay in Leicester City.
After making an appointment with his parents to celebrate in the evening, Ling Feng hung up the phone.
After checking the time, he went to the team's locker room, put on his sneakers, and prepared to return to team training.
When he trotted to the first team's training ground, all the first team players stopped and stared at him.
There was surprise, doubt, and relief in his eyes.
Some teammates thought that Ling Feng would choose to transfer and leave.
You know, the invitations to Ling Feng were from prestigious Premier League giants such as Arsenal and Chelsea.
Both the treatment and the stage are better than staying in Leicester City.
However, Ling Feng staying is a good thing for them individually and for the entire team.
If Ling Feng stays, their team's strength will be improved and they will be more confident of being promoted to the Premier League!
And if they are promoted to the Premier League, their wages will also increase accordingly.
Of course, if you want to stay with the team and compete in the Premier League after the team is promoted to the Premier League, you must train hard and give your best performance on the court!
Facing the different eyes of everyone, Ling Feng looked calm.
I saw him trotting to Pearson's side and said:
"coach!"
"Well, let's go to the attack team!"
"OK!"
According to Pearson's arrangement, Ling Feng came to the offensive group where Mahrez, Vardy and others were, and conducted warm-up training together.
After a while, Mahrez quietly came over and asked in a low voice:
"nailed it?"
"nailed it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Vardy, whose ears pricked up, couldn't help but approach the two of them and asked curiously:
"What's done?"
Turning his head and glancing at Vardy, Ling Feng smiled mysteriously, "You'll find out later by looking at your phone..."
Since we are in the middle of the season and we just finished a game the day before.
Therefore, the team did not conduct too much physical training. The coaching staff only made tactical corrections based on the last FA Cup game.
Because the set-piece tactics in the last game were quite effective, Chelsea scored.
Therefore, Pearson also added special training on set-piece tactics.
For example, Pearson has made some details on the placement of corner kicks and free kicks, the candidates for grabbing points, etc.
Set kicks are one of the effective means for the team when they are unable to open up the situation. If they can put some effort into this aspect, it will definitely enrich their offensive routines.
Whether facing a strong team or a weak team in the league that is fully defensive, it will have good results.
During the training, he did not forget to announce in public that Ling Feng would become the team's first free kick and corner kick player.
Neither Drinkwater, the "drinking brother" who previously served as the team's first free kicker, nor any other players had any objections to the head coach's decision.
There is no way, Ling Feng's passing skills are the only one in the entire team...
It wasn't until they finished a training session and came to the cafeteria to replenish their energy that the team confirmed through the club's official announcement that Ling Feng had signed a five-year long-term contract with the club!
Captain Morgan found Ling Feng first and gave him a deep hug:
"Congratulations on your contract extension, young man!"
"Thank you, Captain."
Later, vice-captain Schmeichel, team veteran Andy King, Vardy and others came over to fist bump with Ling Feng.
Vardy did not forget to punch Ling Feng lightly on the chest, "So when you said it was done, you meant this!"
And Mahrez, who has the best relationship with Ling Feng, even joked:
"Ling, you can't escape this time, you have to treat me."
"no problem!"
And Ling Feng happily agreed.
He stood up and opened his arms, "Guys, I have an announcement!"
When all the other teammates in the cafeteria looked at him, Ling Feng smiled slightly and said loudly:
"To celebrate my contract extension, I will treat everyone to a very authentic Chinese restaurant after we beat Birmingham City the day after tomorrow!"
For England, which has an extremely poor food culture, Chinese food, with its rich and varied dishes and flavors, is their favorite daily meal.
none of them!
Hearing that Ling Feng was preparing to treat the guests, the teammates in the cafeteria were also very considerate and applauded one after another.
Vardy and Andy King, who were going crazy, couldn't help but whistle.
Looking at the smiles on everyone's faces, Ling Feng suddenly felt that his relationship with other teammates on the team had become closer.
Sure enough, no matter which country you are in, treating guests to dinner is a good way to gain favor!
