Seven-time Champion

Chapter 667: Signed with Paris Saint-Germain

Views:

When returning to China, the Chinese team received a warm welcome from domestic fans from the moment they got off the plane.

This time the celebration was even crazier than the last time they won the Olympic and Asian Cup titles.

Because everyone knows that the Asian Cup and Olympic champions were bullied by Lu Wenbin.

But the Confederations Cup is different. Just look at the scores of a few games and you will know how difficult it is for the Chinese team in the world competition.

The third place in the Confederations Cup, although there is no championship trophy, is more valuable than the trophy.

From this, Chinese fans can know that under the leadership of Lu Wenbin, the Chinese team can defeat Uruguay, Italy, draw with Nigeria, and so on.

Chinese football has truly stepped out of Asia and rushed to the world, and there are more and more children in the country who like to play football.

Perhaps, one day, even without Lu Wenbin, Chinese football will make it to the World Cup and the Confederations Cup.

He attended a celebration event organized by the Football Association in Beijing, interacted with fans, and then accepted an exclusive interview with CCTV with his teammates.

Afterwards, Lu Wenbin and his wife Kate began to travel around the world and truly began their honeymoon which had been delayed by the Confederations Cup.

During his honeymoon, Lu Wenbin only kept in touch with his assistants and Mendes to ensure the negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain.

Although Lu Wenbin's request to leave after winning the treble is a bit strange and unreasonable, Lu Wenbin's personal strength is so outstanding.

Judging from the performance in the Confederations Cup, Lu Wenbin was able to lead an Asian weak team to defeat Italy and win third place, which shows how much strength Lu Wenbin has brought to a team.

After a long tug of war, the two sides finally reached an agreement on all the conditions.

On July 9, 2013, the official websites of Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid announced simultaneously that Lu Wenbin, the world's top star who had won three consecutive Ballon d'Or titles, had officially transferred to Paris Saint-Germain for a transfer fee of 150 million euros, signed a three-year contract with an annual salary of 25 million euros.

Since Lu Wenbin is still on vacation, the current contract between the two parties is just a letter of intent witnessed by a lawyer and an agent.

The two parties will officially sign the contract on July 16 after Lu Wenbin returns from vacation. At that time, Paris Saint-Germain will hold a grand fan meeting for Lu Wenbin. Fans of Paris Saint-Germain and even fans of Lu Wenbin from France and all over the world are welcome to witness it.

As the news came out, it caused a global sensation.

The transfer fee of 150 million euros was within everyone's expectations, because Lu Wenbin only had one year left on his contract with Real Madrid, and no one would offer too much in transfer fees. 150 million is already a lavish sum of money for Paris Saint-Germain.

However, an annual salary of 25 million euros is a bit low.

Of course, the agreement reached privately between Lu Wenbin and Paris Saint-Germain is naturally unknown to the public because it is too incredible.

It was because Paris Saint-Germain was eager to win the Champions League that they agreed to Lu Wenbin's demanding request that he could terminate the contract and leave early if he won the treble.

When no one knew about the private agreement between Lu Wenbin and Paris Saint-Germain, and no one knew that Lu Wenbin had to go to Ligue 1 to complete the main task of winning the treble in the top five leagues, the annual salary offered by Paris Saint-Germain to Lu Wenbin was a bit low.

The French media are cheering for the arrival of the world's top star in Ligue 1. The ratings of Ligue 1 next season will surely skyrocket.

The media in other countries are wondering why Lu Wenbin signed with Paris Saint-Germain for only an annual salary of 25 million

You know, Lu Wenbin is now the world's number one superstar, who has won three consecutive Ballon d'Ors, three consecutive Laureus Awards, five consecutive European Golden Boots, 168 goals per year, four triple crowns, two six-crown titles, and is at the top of the Forbes Global Celebrity 100 list.

In the summer when Lu Wenbin transferred from Inter Milan to Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain offered an annual salary of 30 million to poach Lu Wenbin.

How come now that Lu Wenbin has achieved greater success and become stronger, his annual salary is only 25 million

Although the Qatar Investment Authority gave Lu Wenbin a luxury private jet and crew as promised, it still could not dispel people's doubts about why Paris Saint-Germain signed Lu Wenbin with such a low annual salary.

Especially Manchester City and Chelsea in the Premier League, it is quite depressing.

Because they are prepared to give Lu Wenbin an annual salary of 30 million euros. If Lu Wenbin is interested, it is not impossible to negotiate for more than 30 million.

Unexpectedly, after Real Madrid accepted Paris Saint-Germain's offer of 150 million euros, Lu Wenbin directly negotiated and signed a contract with Paris Saint-Germain.

They lost without even having a chance to meet Lu Wenbin properly.

No matter what the outside world speculates, some speculate that Lu Wenbin established a deep friendship with the King of Qatar during the Qatar Asian Cup, and some speculate that Paris Saint-Germain and Lu Wenbin's personal investment brand have some kind of cooperation content that outsiders are unknown to.

Anyway, no one guessed it right.

Amid the global media and fans' heated discussions about Lu Wenbin's signing with Paris Saint-Germain, Lu Wenbin and his newlywed wife Kate rushed to Paris, France after their vacation.

Here, his assistant team has rented a villa for him, which comes with a swimming pool and a court.

Lu Wenbin will live in Paris for at least the next year.

On July 16, 2013, in the press conference hall of Paris Saint-Germain's Parc des Princes Stadium, in front of hundreds of media reporters from all over the world, Lu Wenbin officially signed with Paris Saint-Germain.

Then, Lu Wenbin appeared at the Parc des Princes wearing Paris Saint-Germain's No. 6 jersey, and tens of thousands of Paris Saint-Germain fans and Lu Wenbin's personal fans who had been waiting in the stadium burst into warm cheers.

Lu Wenbin's arrival completely ignited the enthusiasm of Paris Saint-Germain fans.

Every time Lu Wenbin dribbled the ball during the interactive session, he aroused cheers from the fans in the stadium.

When he kicked the ball into the stands, it caused even more frantic scramble for it.

The arrival of Lu Wenbin, the world's top superstar, not only the football fans in Paris, but also made the whole of Paris and even the whole of France crazy.

In the evening of the same day, Lu Wenbin moved to the Eiffel Tower and climbed the Eiffel Tower wearing the No. 6 jersey of Paris Saint-Germain.

Then, this iconic French building lit up colorful lights to welcome Lu Wenbin.

Hundreds of thousands of fans and Parisian citizens around the Eiffel Tower witnessed Lu Wenbin's debut ceremony.

The whole of France was talking about Lu Wenbin's arrival.

The French Ligue 1, which ranks last among the five major leagues, will surely become the most watched league by fans around the world in the new season.

The French Ligue 1's global broadcasting revenue, advertising contract revenue, etc. in the new season have all increased significantly.

Lu Wenbin's arrival has brought countless benefits to Ligue 1.

After the signing ceremony, Lu Wenbin rested for two days to adapt to the new rented house, and then entered the Paris Saint-Germain training base and started training.
