German media: Moukoko rejects a contract linked to performance, and Dortmund offers a base salary of 3 million euros

A few days ago, Bild reported that Dott made a final offer for Moukoko to renew his contract with an annual salary of 6 million euros. German media sport1 said that this figure is not the annual salary that players will definitely get after the contract renewal, and revealed that players are not willing to accept contracts linked to performance.
The two sides negotiated another contract extension on Thursday, attended by Dot CEO Watsk, sports director Kyle, team manager Terzic and Moukoko’s agent Williams, Sport1 reported. At present, it seems that the youngster’s contract renewal is not natural, but there is the possibility of rupture.
The player refuted the Bild report that “Dot is offering an annual salary of up to 6 million euros and Moukoko wants 7 million euros plus bonus” on social media on Friday, pointing out that such reports are lies that affect his image.
According to Sport1, the 6 million euros mentioned in Bild can only be obtained if the players and teams achieve the greatest competitive success, and Dot offers a base salary of about 250000 euros a month, or 3 million euros a year. And that’s too low for the players.
It is reported that Moukoko, who currently earns just over 1.5 million euros a year, had planned to have a constructive dialogue with senior officials in November, but his plans were disrupted by Frick’s unexpected recruitment to the World Cup. Frick is said to admire him and regard him as an important center for Euro 2024.
In the contract extension battle, in addition to Moukoko’s love for the club, his close relationship with coach Terzic and assistant coach Jeppert is also one of the important factors, as well as his beloved image among the fan community. But in addition to these and competitive prospects, economic recognition is also important for Moukoko.
In contrast to teammate Adeyemi, he currently earns about 425000 euros a month, or about 5.1 million euros a year, plus a bonus. As Borussia Dortmund’s potential club facade, Moukoko hopes to be at least on a par with German international players such as Adeyemi and Schlottebeck in terms of salary. In addition, Dodt has signed strikers Mullen, Arley and Modester who have all made more money than him in recent years.
The fact that he is about to become a free agent at the end of the season has attracted a lot of suitors for Moukoko, of whom Chelsea and Barcelona are serious, who have offered high annual salaries and generous signing fees.
The article points out that it is clear that if the contract renewal is only about money, then Dortmund is likely to have no chance. The crux of the problem is that Moukoko rejected a contract extension that was closely linked to performance and instead tried to get a contract that matched the status of a German international, but Dott wanted to save money.
The reason is that after spending lavishly on players’ salaries in the past few years, clubs now pay more attention to salary setting, especially among young players-even though Dodt appreciates Moukoko and recognizes his outburst in performance. Finally, the article concludes that the contradiction between the two sides is becoming more and more obvious, which may even lead to the breakdown of the negotiations.
