"Peter, do you think this player information that List gave us is good?"
Sunderland has declined in the current English football world. When the English League was first established, Sunderland was a strong team in England and won many league championships. But those were all years ago.
, eighty or ninety years ago. And now Sunderland has become a lifter in the English league.
In the current map of English football, Sunderland's status is already very low. Its mortal enemy Newcastle has become more and more arrogant in recent years, while Sunderland is getting worse and worse. This makes the kitchen and bathroom tycoon Bao
Bob Murray is very angry. He is not only the owner of Sunderland, but also a fan of Sunderland. As a kitchen and bathroom tycoon worth hundreds of millions of pounds, he can invest in Sunderland because he is a fan of Sunderland.
. Now seeing that Sunderland is not as good as Newcastle, he is of course very dissatisfied.
"Yes, Mr. Chairman. Although the player information in this information is not very detailed and the number is not very large. But this information is definitely a rare thing. I can be sure that there is a very large team behind Liszt Cherny.
Scouting system. Otherwise it would be impossible for him to discover these players in the lower leagues of England."
"Have a huge scouting system?"
Bob Murray knew about List, but it was only in writing. He also knew that List was the number one agent in the Czech Republic and had many players. But an agent with his own scouting system? Then
That's amazing. Currently, among the top agents in European football, there is not one agent who can have his own scouting system. At most, those agents are very familiar with the scouts in European football.
"Yes, Mr. Chairman. I can guarantee that even the current scouts of the Premier League giants will not pay so much attention to the lower leagues. Not to mention that there are players of all levels in this list. I can even be sure that this is only owned by List.
A small part of the player information."
After hearing Peter Reed's inference, Bob Murray paid more and more attention to Lister.
"Part of it, only part of it. What you mean is that Lister has more complete player information, and it must contain more players."
Peter Reid nodded. Bob Murray was overjoyed. For a club like Sunderland, this kind of player information is really needed. The important thing is that although Bob Murray has a little money, he is very
He is obviously not the kind of rich man worth billions of pounds or tens of billions of pounds. For Premier League clubs, his net worth is not very high.
He can't spend a lot of money like Abramovich. What he needs is such careful player information. With this information, it is very convenient for a small team like Sunderland to select players.
"Okay. Lister seems to be more powerful and ambitious than we thought."
…………
Bob Murray was so enthusiastic that he forced Lister to stay in Sunderland for several days. He personally accompanied Lister every day and introduced Sunderland to him. Lister understood what Bob Murray meant.
But Leicester also needs Sunderland. If he can indirectly start to control the Sunderland club's transfer transactions through Bob Murray and Peter Reid. In other words, instead of controlling the Sunderland club's transfer transactions,
Forming an alliance with Sunderland Club will also be of great benefit to Lister's future entry into English football.
The strength of the Premier League is about to begin. Starting from Manchester United's triple crown in 1999, to Liverpool's five crowns in 2001, Roman Abramovich's arrival and Arsenal's undefeated championship, all the way to Liverpool's Miracle in Istanbul. It can be said that it has never been better.
In a few years, the Premier League will enter an era of great prosperity. What is important is that the Premier League will soon replace Serie A as the most expensive league. In such a prosperous league, Leicester also wants a share of the pie.
Lister wants to become a super agent in European football, but he will never rush into it. As an agent, Lister needs to lay a solid foundation step by step in order to be able to accumulate a lot of money. Therefore, Lister can be said to have been in Sunderland for the past few days.
He did his best to advise Sunderland. Including Liester was not forceful about Sunderland's recruitment, but gave Sunderland a lot of advice as a consultant. He also assisted Peter Reid in recruiting many outstanding players.
.
Players including Kevin Phillips and Kilbane all came to Sunderland on List's advice. Their performance was also outstanding, making both Bob Murray and Peter Reid very happy. List
He really regards himself as Sunderland's transfer consultant, and Bob Murray also hopes that List will really become his personal transfer consultant.
In just a few days at Sunderland, Lister developed a good relationship with Bob Murray and Peter Reed. Unfortunately, Sunderland was still too small and was not the end of Lister. However, Lister still did not
How many opportunities stayed in one place? Because he received a call from Puma general manager Jochen Leitz.
"Lister, I've been so busy lately. Have I even forgotten my old friends?"
Puma's development is very good. In the past year, Puma has completely got rid of the situation of continuous losses and started to make profits. This year, Puma's development is even faster. The cooperation between Puma and Czech football has brought huge benefits to Puma.
Interests. He supported Czech football, including getting Nedvěd and Boboski to endorse, sponsoring the Czech national team, naming the Czech First Division, etc., and spent less than three million US dollars.
But when Puma entered Czech football, it immediately pushed away all sports brands. The timing he chose was very accurate, which happened to be when Czech football was booming. In addition, the Czech Republic is a place that world brands such as Nike and Adidas do not pay attention to.
, so Puma entered the Czech market with almost no difficulty.
The Czech market is not as good as those developed markets in Europe and the United States, but it is still a not simple market. Czech agents are constantly developing, and the Czech population also has tens of millions of people. Puma’s domestic turnover in the Czech Republic is 20 million in a year
Above USD. Puma executives even believe that Puma’s turnover in the Czech Republic can continue to grow, and USD 50 million should not be a problem.
The Czech Republic seems to be a small country, but its turnover can exceed 20 million US dollars in a short period of time. This achievement makes Puma directors recognize Puma's current development direction. Jochen Leitz was even more praised by all Puma directors.
support.
"I'm not busy. But you are a very busy person, and I'm afraid of disturbing your precious time."
Lister shook his head and sat casually in front of Jochen Leitz. Jochen Leitz was very capable, but he was very low-key. As the youngest chairman of a listed company in Europe, he rarely appeared.
In the media pages, but Puma is prospering in his hands.
"Jochen, why do you have time to invite me over today? Are you planning to change the endorsement contract between Pavel and Karel?"
"Rister, you are so greedy. I heard that Boboski's incident made A Coruña very angry."
Jochen Leitz himself made a cup of coffee there and brought it to Riester.
"Okay, Jochen. Both of us have made good progress this year and have made a lot of money. Let's stop flattering each other and just tell me that you have something to do with me."
Both of them are busy people, so they would not meet at this time if they have nothing to do.
"Rister, our Puma has recently expanded its business in Africa. Recently, we have cooperated with the Côte d'Ivoire Football Association and we are ready to sponsor the Côte d'Ivoire national team. Therefore, we Puma want to hold a friendly match in Côte d'Ivoire."
Listening to Jochen Leitz's words, List almost understood what Jochen Leitz meant. It seems that Puma's strategy has completely changed, and they are really going to take a roundabout way. Now they are interested in the African national team.
Lister is an agent, not the president of a club. Since it was a friendly match, Johenrez approached Lister again, so he wanted to contact the Czech national team.
"Czech national team?"
"Well, the Côte d'Ivoire Football Association hopes to find a team with appeal to compete with their national team. You also know that our Puma currently sponsors a limited number of national teams, and the most appealing one is the Czech national team. The current Czech stars
There are quite a few, Borg, Boboski, Nedved and others all have strong appeal."
Sure enough, Puma hopes to hold a friendly match between the Czech national team and the Ivory Coast national team in Cote d'Ivoire.
"Jochen, this matter should be very simple. You are the sponsor of the national team. You can directly make this request to the Czech national team and just pay some money."
The Czech national team should have no problem paying some appearance fees.
"Rister, there is one thing you need to know. Star players are likely to refuse such a friendly match. Although we are sponsors, we cannot make strong demands. We still need your support in this regard."
Lister nodded. This is not a big deal. It is very common in world football to play friendly matches under the same sponsor. Many friendly matches are not sudden, and their sponsors have arranged it. Jochen
·There is only one main reason why Leitz approached Riester this time, and that is that Puma’s current strength is still too poor.
If it were a sports company like Nike or Adidas, they wouldn't be like this. They would directly decide everything with the top management of the sponsoring national football association. But Puma is weak now. Although it sponsors the Czech national team, the amount of sponsorship is very low.
The matter of the Czech national team cannot be completely decided yet. Therefore, the only choice is to find the first agent in the Czech Republic like List.
"Okay, Jochen. As for the players, I can guarantee you that as long as you convince the Czech Football Association, then I guarantee that as long as those star players are not injured, they will be able to catch up with this friendly match."
