Chapter 88 was selected for the Top Ten Potential Rising Stars list!
Of all the reports, the most eye-catching is the Transfermarkt rankings!
It's not a ranking of net worth, but a ranking of potential!
The list brings together outstanding young players from the top five European leagues, providing excellent examples for many clubs.
Among them are some players who are already somewhat well-known.
For example, La Liga has Oblak, Gimenez, Asensio.
The Premier League has Lukaku, Alli, Stones.
Andy continues to rise in the ranks of full-backs!
His ranking includes Arsenal's Bellerin, Valencia's Cancelo, his own teammate Ginter, Monaco's Fabinho, and others.
These players are all established stars!
On the contrary, Andy, as a rookie in his first season, has broken into the list.
It attracted a lot of attention!
As a result, many German media outlets and celebrities have come out to support Andy!
Matthäus said the following on a TV program:
"He has the powerful long-range shooting ability of Carlos, and at the same time, he has the excellent attacking awareness of Belletti.His emergence is reminiscent of those great full-backs, and he has the potential to become a legend like them."
Legendary goalkeeper Kahn commented:
"If I were to choose the best full-back in the Bundesliga right now, I would choose Andy.He is the engine of Dortmund.His one-on-one defending ability is amazing, like that of a seasoned veteran."
Barack also specifically mentioned Andy when he spoke to the media:
"I admire Andy's willpower on the field.This kind of firm belief is a valuable asset to a team, and I'm glad he has such a quality."
Even Bayern Munich's Lahm gave a thumbs up in a report praising him in the German media.
If Andy were a German citizen, the local media would probably idolize him!
The Dortmund team rested the following morning.
But Andy needs to use this time to go to school.
Just as he was going downstairs, Tom appeared.
And he also had several endorsement offers with him!
Nike and Adidas, the two giants, have finally made their move!
Adidas has offered a three-year contract worth $11 million!
Nike, on the other hand, offered a 10-year, $45 million contract!
Although Nike has a longer lifespan, it's practically no different from gambling!
It's important to understand that young players' form can fluctuate.
It's very possible that he'll fade into obscurity after just one or two seasons.
Andy was very surprised by how much Nike valued him!
Tom explained the reason.
"Adidas just snatched Paul Pogba from Nike with a ten-year, $44 million contract."
"Nike originally wanted to sign your club's youth academy prodigy, Moukoko, but after consideration, they decided to start with you."
That's why this contract came about.
"You still have time to consider it further, if you sign!"
"The signing fee is $4 million, and subsequent bonus clauses include appearances for Borussia Dortmund's first team and for the national team."
Hearing this, Andy frowned.
"The national team?They mean."
"The Brazilian national team!"
Tom solemnly stated, "Your application has been approved, and you will be selected as a member of the Olympic team next month."
"So fast?"
"I have some connections in Brazil, and Ronaldo takes your matter very seriously, so everything fell into place."
"What you need to do now is maintain your form and win as many titles as possible for Borussia Dortmund!"
Andy fell silent.
Let's put endorsements aside for now.
My teacher's influence is a bit too outrageous!
Brazil can speak up?
If you're that capable, why are you even teaching me how to play football?
If you go find two projects to work on, you can easily handle them!
However, Andy ultimately kept this question buried deep in his heart.
So far, Tom has arranged everything perfectly.
What else could he say?
Only gratitude remains.
"Teacher, are there any other endorsements?"
"have!"
Tom picked up his phone and pulled up a list.
The page was covered with endorsement invitations!
More than 40 brands are from China!
It covers a very wide range of industries!
"The main reason we didn't help you get those endorsements is because you've changed your nationality."
"If the Brazilian team calls you up, it will have a negative impact."
Andy nodded.
The teacher is right!
Those issues always become very sensitive.
Let's wait until things settle down before discussing them further; some things need time to mature.
Does Puma have any competitive intentions?
Andy asked this question because he is a sponsor of Borussia Dortmund.
Logically, they should have provided their own quotes.
Tom curled his lip."Puma's offer was low because they already own a small portion of the club's image rights for jersey sales, so."
"Then let's talk about the price with Nike again."
Andy then told Tom his bottom line and went to school.
When I returned to school, the situation was different again!
Previously, classmates would at most ask for photos and autographs.
This has caused a sensation on campus!
The entire lecture hall was packed!
Even the hallways are starting to have queues!
Professor White was dumbfounded during the lecture.
I wish my classes were really that popular!
In the afternoon, the entire Dortmund team conducted a recovery training session.
Having just finished a Europa League match, Tuchel made personnel changes for the next game.
Andy returned to left-back, and Pulisic also secured a starting position.
Sven-Bend and Moritz got playing time.
To Andy's surprise.
Almost allPlayers have been asking him questions about the Chinese Super League!
After their explanation, Andy finally understood the situation!
So it was all because of the transfer!
Not long ago, Guangzhou Evergrande bought Martinez for 42 million.
An annual salary exceeding €12.5 million translates to a weekly wage of €240,000, a daily wage of €34,000, and an hourly wage of €1,400.
Suning spent another 50 million euros to buy Teixeira in the last two days!
The Chinese Super League's reputation has soared!
In addition, Dortmund players have also received offers.
When faced with the temptation of money, some people will always lose their original intentions.
Andy couldn't explain the reason, and that would easily get him banned.
He simply gave a warning to a few teammates who were also young:
"Don't joke about your career."
After training, Andy prepared to leave.
Reus called out to him!
"Andy, will you choose to leave at the end of this season?"
"If we win the championship."
Upon hearing this, Andy froze on the spot.
"Why do I say that?I'm very happy here."
"If everything goes well, I can't think of any reason to leave!"
Reus looked at him and sincerely said, "Thank you."
This left Andy somewhat bewildered.
Under his persistent questioning, Little Rocket revealed the reason for his question.
It turns out that Andy has been selected as one of the top ten most promising young stars by a prestigious European organization!
And it ranked fifth!
The key point is that Dortmund players have also been on the list before.
Including Reus himself!
But in the end, everyone except him left Dortmund.
This made Reus a little superstitious.
Andy put his arm around his shoulder and promised:
"If the club is fair and just, I will definitely stay and fight alongside you!"
"We're going to win so many championships we won't know what to do with them!"
Reus smiled and said again:
"Thanks.
