The first ‘endorsement’ and salary increase

After the match day, Maher returned to his normal life and started to practice more.

Like last time, he still took about a day and a half to recover, during which he practiced long shots and coordination more.

Although coordination is physical training, it is mostly balanced training such as elastic bands and ladders, which is relatively low in intensity.

After the last game, Maher's social media fans are increasing by 3,000+ per day, slowly decreasing day by day.

When walking on the street with Gilbert during their rest and relaxation on weekdays, they can also be recognized by more people and are often invited to sign autographs and take photos.

This feeling is still very enjoyable. At least he is not tired of it yet and is in the fresh period of "becoming famous".

"Maybe I will never get tired of it?"

He sometimes thinks so, but how can we say what will happen in the future now?

Time slowly passes August and enters September.

This month, they have a total of 5 Championship games to play, which can be considered a tight schedule.

The schedule of the Championship is different from that of the Premier League. They have 46 rounds of games to play each season, and the battle line is very long and very close.

This is also the reason why the Championship teams rarely win the FA Cup and League Cup by surprise. The pressure of the league itself is very high, and they don't have a very strong bench. How can they compare with the Premier League teams?

Sheffield United's fifth round of the Championship League is on September 11, and it's still early.

Maher was not too nervous, and he still stepped up his training. Until September 9, his coordination finally had a breakthrough.

[Skill: Stability lv2]

[Proficiency Progress: (1/800)]

[Effect: You gradually understand your body, and you are more stable when doing difficult movements, and your body balance is greatly improved! ]

A wonderful feeling came over, making Maher stand still on the training ground for a long time. The improvement of coordination, like strength, can give people a sense of security.

He felt that he would be more calm when doing breakthroughs, and the impact he suffered when confronting others would also be smaller!

Don't underestimate these points, this is also an ability that determines his upper limit.

With coordination, the abilities of other high-level skills will be more solid, and there is no need to worry about the instability of the lower body when improving.

"The next thing is speed."

Maher laughed and glanced at the progress of speed. At the latest on the 15th, he can improve this ability to level 2.

By then, the physical attributes will be completely sufficient, just waiting to impact excellence!

While eating in the cafeteria, he took his mobile phone to check the private messages on Facebook and saw that one person sent him more than ten messages.

"3000 pounds! After tax!"

"Can you see, little star, it's after tax, the price can be negotiated, just sign the wine glasses and wine bottles with suitable materials, and sign some scarves and hats, and help organize an event."

"3500 pounds!"

"4000 pounds! Little star, this is really the last limit, we are not a chain store."

He still remembers this matter... It was an endorsement invitation from a bar. Last time he said he would go, but it was delayed before the end of the game.

Since he had nothing to do, Maher asked Gilbert to take a taxi to the fan bar after dinner.

"4,000 pounds?"

Gilbert kept asking along the way, with a teasing and envy on his face, "Just signing some autographs, 4,000 pounds?

"Be careful of being cheated, Maher, no wonder people are worried that you will be scammed."

"You will know when you go there." Maher looked out the window and replied.

More than ten minutes later, the two came to a bar street.

A rough count showed that there were at least dozens of bars on both sides of the street, large or small, and many of them had football elements.

Looking at the message in the private message, Maher finally decided on a bar and pointed to the driver: "That's it."

He and Gilbert quickly entered together. This was a fan bar with a size of about 300 square meters. The interior of the bar was covered with Sheffield United's team logo and group photos.

Looking closely, there were also many group photos of Sheffield's former stars in the bar, but they were a bit old.

"You are here, wait a minute. "

Seeing the two of them come in, a waiter at the front desk of the bar quickly walked to the backstage.

Not long after, an enthusiastic old man walked out from the backstage of the bar. He smiled enthusiastically and stretched out his hands to Maher, "Finally here, my friend.

"I have been waiting for you for a long time. You played really well in the last game. Everyone in the bar was conquered by you."

After Maher and Gilbert went through the greeting etiquette, the old man settled them at the wine table near the bar, then turned and left. Not long after, there was a wine barrel under his armpit.

Hmm... a bit like the wine barrel in LOL.

"My name is Kodal, and I have been running this bar for forty-five years."

Kodal was busy pouring wine for the two people, while introducing the bar, "The bar has been renovated three times, but after the most recent renovation, there are fewer customers.

"So I thought of imitating other fan bars and inviting a Sheffield player to endorse and promote the bar.

"After all, we old stubborn people should learn new promotional methods."

After saying the last sentence, Kodal leaned back and laughed, "Thank you for coming and bringing this person... This person should be called..."

Gilbert was embarrassed and reminded: "Gilbert."

He felt insulted. Why did others remember Maher but not himself?

Does he have such a common face?

Afterwards, Kodal told Maher the requirements for endorsement.

Generally speaking, Maher needs to sign about a hundred autographs and promote on his social media to invite fans to watch the game here.

Then he can get 4,000 pounds after tax.

"It's very simple."

Maher smiled and accepted the proposal. For him now, nothing is easier than making money.

He then started the autograph task and worked hard. Every time he wrote a name, his brain would vibrate slightly.

+40 pounds+40 pounds....+40 pounds!

Gilbert looked at him eagerly, with only envy.

After signing all the contracts, Maher drank a sip of beer and smiled happily, "Old man, if there is such a job next time, remember to call me."

"Me too." Gilbert raised his head, eager to try.

Kodal excitedly put away the scarves and wine bottles, and said with satisfaction, "Of course... Actually, I also want to try it, and I hope it will be useful.

"I still want to rely on this bar for retirement, and I want to watch football here for 20 years."

He should be a die-hard fan of the team, supporting the team for a lifetime... Maher's heart moved, and he said, "When the off-season comes, we will definitely come here for a drink."

"Okay." Kodal took out 4,000 pounds in cash and handed it to Maher, saying happily, "This is your reward, and I will send the tax certificate to your mobile phone later.

"I will wait for you here all the time, and you will definitely get a free meal when you come!"

"Thank you." Maher wanted to chat for a few more words, but suddenly received a call from Jolson.

Two minutes later, he put down the phone, his eyes revealing surprise, "Gilbert, Arsenal is going to give us both a raise."

"Really?"

Gilbert almost jumped up, "You and I will both get a share? How much?"

"I don't know yet, let's talk about it when I get back."

Maher packed up his things, said goodbye to Kodal, and hurried out to get a taxi.

I don't know why, how come all the good things happened at the same time these days?
