Li Tie, one of the iconic figures in China's run to the World Cup, was also a pioneer in the overseas study of Chinese players. Although he suffered setbacks in his last twelve World Cup matches, and the outside world has questioned his coaching ability, but this has not shaken his roots in the soccer world. At the time he was taken away for investigation, he still enjoyed the title of "soccer celebrity" and held a significant position in the Chinese soccer world.
Despite the poor record and the controversy, Li Tie has continued to reap the benefits of fame and fortune.
After the class, Li Tie temporarily faded from public view, soon after the reappearance, frequently become guests from all walks of life. Shenyang Sports Institute soccer research room professor, the Football Association training professional coach lecturer, World Cup commentator ...... This series of identities, so that Li Tie in coaching the national football team before the halo more bright.
It was revealed that when signing on as a World Cup pundit, Li Tie boasted that he had received coaching offers from Shanghai Port and Shenzhen, with the intention of increasing his personal value. Although the club denied the claim, it is not known if there was any internal discussion about it. the Top 12 loss does not seem to have affected his value, but rather an upward trend. Some of the negative comments about him have hardly made waves.
Obviously, Li Tie's "old capital" is still rich, and still enjoys a good reputation in the Chinese soccer world.
It was rumored that the Association of Football Associations (AFA) had helped Li Tie to get an annual salary of up to 30 million dollars (a five-year contract worth 150 million dollars), which made people wonder whether he had a "background". According to Soccer Daily, the "Li Tie incident re-investigation" confirmed the fact that Li Tie's annual salary of 30 million, in addition to the 30 million signing fee (payable within five years). When he left Wuhan to coach the national football team, he was paid 48 million (30 million a year + 18 million in signing fees), while his team (Crouching Dragon and Phoenix) remained in Wuhan, and the FA is assisting his remaining team to collect their salaries.
Football Association for Li Tie to stay in the team's pay behavior, whether it has nothing to do with Li Tie himself? This kind of public and private practices, coupled with the coaching of the national football team during the alleged illegal carry goods behavior, people can not help but suspect that he has a "background" behind. The FA seems to be endorsing Li Tie, which in turn raises his value.
As a result, Li Tie was re-invigorated in the public eye shortly after his dismissal, attracting a lot of attention, so to speak.
If there are no accidents, Li Tie is likely to become the head coach of a team soon. With his status as a "former national soccer coach" and the background of the FA helping to collect his salary, it will not be difficult for him to find his next home, and he is even expected to continue his wealth accumulation by entering the "luxury". Perhaps he will continue to deliver talent to the national soccer team in some way. The numbers in the bank accounts of the "international players" will continue to climb.
