meanwhile reports from ESPN suggesting the Venicia Junior in contract negotiations wants more than Killian mbappe is being paid uh there were Links of course in going to Saudi Arabia angelotti said yeah I'm tired of this topic but I'm not worried I see him happy and we are happy with him there's nothing more to add with respect to what I said A week ago it's not a topic that we discuss here he venicius doesn't discuss it boys how much of other players aware of what other teammates are on Don oh yeah every day of the week
yeah yeah we all talk yeah everywhere we're all gossiping in the dressing rooms I don't see Vinnie Jr going to Saudi I think he's he's the last player I see the John dur and maybe the Salas and all the the Superstar signing that Saudi have made over the last 18 months Kevin De bruers maybe in the summer that's what I do not see Vinnie Jr going away from Real Madrid while he's so young while he's competing for balandor he's not going to get any balandor winning over in Saudi so he ain't going nowhere that's why
Carlos's he's proper chilled on it Frank you've been in a situation where players know what other players are on and use that in contract negotiations um yeah I remember that Marcel de signed for Chelsea uh just straight after the World Cup and was a great magnificent Milan uh player and I I knew his salary is's my friend so he gave it to me so the day after I went to see the chairman say I'm sorry H I'm going to play for fulltime less you know alongside m say and I had the chance to play alongside
him but I won the World Cup with him can I have just the double you know like Twi twice less than him that's that's going to be fine for me and he gave it to me yeah we all know we all know the the uh the well mostly the salary of the others but you know it doesn't mean anything because it doesn't hold on something very uh very fair it depends how many years contract you had left I you know if you come for free whatever it can be uh and uh it's it's only normal
that some players earn more than you so I can hear what Venus is trying to do but I mean mbappe venish Jr the amount of money they already have I won't complain I won't complain too much if about them but does this concern Real Madrid in the fact that they don't want this being a big issue within the dressing room Frank did it ever get to that stage well you have to go through that you cannot avoid that and it can happen and that's what it is and it's a free market so salaries are different
and yeah you try to cope with that I think they can they we try to deal with Vinnie I think they want to keep Vinnie they don't want to see him going stupidly to Saudi Arabia so they're going to try to do something to make sure that he's happy but he's not going to get they're not going to give him uh much than mbappe because mbappe after might be unhappy and after you have Bellingham as well so they will try to find a good balance to be fair to everybody but but I mean when vinish
Jor signed the contract for three four five years I don't know he was happy so we just have to remind that to him and saying that at the time you were happy so why are you unhappy right now because somebody is has more money than you it's not fair to the club as well you have to be fair to the club I think that that's always danger when somebody comes in and and breaks a weed structure so to speak that other players as as their contracts come up in negotiation that they know that that wage
structure is broken so therefore they're going to ask for more now for for Venicia J I'm I'm with the boys in in that I don't see Venicia J Junior going to Saudi Arabia right now while I sat right here and made the argument for for Duran moving from from Asen Villa to uh to Saudi Arabia for quadruple his his salary Saudi Arabia as far as venisha Jr Goes is not going anywhere given given what he means to the game right now you can only see his talk get a whole lot higher in terms of that
big money move to somewhere else you probably couldn't make that argument for for Duran uh at at the time so I I don't see that as as being as as being the deciding factor around around Venicia signing or not whether Saudi Arabia or there but when you're a talent like venicius Jr when you have had the type of Seasons that he's had in the past and establish yourself as the face of a club like Real Madrid and then killan mbappe comes in it is it is his agent's duty to go in and ask for more
Jonathan Barnett would do it for you oh ABS well I'm I'm not sure you'd have much of a leg to stand on and asking it for me but how were he representing somebody like like Venicia junor and what he means to that club absolutely he would um you know if if if at the end of the season argument say venicius Jr you know goes on a tier between now and the end of the season and he leads uh Real Madrid to to more silverware absolutely yes just pass life it's it's part and parcel of it
we we've all kind of dealt with it and you all understand those dynamics that as players come in and they get big salaries when you go back into negotiate that's the Benchmark if you're better than that player then you going and ask for more if you're a little bit less then you go and ask for a little bit less that's just how it works in your negotiations if you're real Madrid because everyone's fixated on the weekly wage everyone everyone looks at the weekly wage and think that well that's that's a player's weekly wage that's it
it's not it's it's a little bit more complex than that so if you're real Madrid you let's just say Vinnie let's just say Kil LBA is on half a million pound a week and Vinnie Jr wants the same you can more or less same to to to Vinnie Junior listen we can tell the world just because we can tell the world that you're only on 300 Grand a week but we'll put 50 million or 100 million in your bank account so therefore if you do all the maths and all the equations then it's something like
500 600 Grand a week so there's always a way around it everyone gets a little bit fixated on the weekly the weekly wage balandor you could have a you know 20 million if you would win the balandor or or whatever so there's loads of little add-ons you can try and put in your contract to try and make sure your weekly wage looks a little bit higher or is a bit bit spoken from a experience here yes invited to our box you could get invited to our box for a game I had I had 20 million
