"Rister, we have been cooperating for two years, and everything can be solved face to face."
Riester received an invitation from Cragnotti today and came to the Olympic Stadium in Rome to watch Lazio's game. This season is coming to an end, and Lazio's performance is average and is currently only ranked ninth in Serie A. However, Cragnotti
Ti has not fired Swedish Eriksson, but is prepared to continue to trust him.
But the season was coming to an end, and Cragnotti heard the news about List's departure from Inter Milan. Among List's current players, the most outstanding ones are Boboski and Nedved. And the one who can attract Inter Milan's attention is definitely Nedved.
Wade Cragnotti knew Moratti's ambitions better than anyone else. The prodigal son always wanted to restore the glory of the International era, so he never knew how to care about money. So Cragnotti was a little angry.
In fact, at the beginning of this season, Eriksen was a little suspicious of Nedved at first. Nedved is Zeman's favorite player and performed well last season. However, Eriksen did not pay much attention to Nedved at first.
Nedved was even a substitute at the beginning of the season, but Nedved conquered Eriksen with his performance and became Lazio's best player again.
Therefore, after inviting Riester, Cragnotti's expression was not very good in the box. Cragnotti did not feel as domineering as outsiders thought, and he always spoke very slowly.
"Hmm? I wonder, Sergio, what do you mean?"
Lister clearly knew what Cragnotti meant, but he didn't know it at all. The look he looked at Cragnotti was so innocent. After working as an agent for a long time, Lister didn't even know what blushing was. Lying.
?The first thing you have to learn as an agent is how to lie. The first thing you have to learn is how to act rogue.
Cragnotti's somewhat sunken eyes began to get smaller. He squinted and said, "Lister, look at this?"
Lister took "Gazzetta dello Sport" from Cragnotti's hand and read it very carefully. In fact, before receiving Cragnotti's invitation, Lister had already read "Gazzetta dello Sport" in the morning.
For an agent like List, it is not just about paying attention to his own players. List also needs to grasp the direction of public opinion anytime and anywhere. Currently, List is not able to influence public opinion, so he needs to pay attention to changes in public opinion at all times.
.
So every morning the staff will send the most important sports media in Europe to Lister. And Lister will spend an hour every day to pay attention to the news of European sports media. This is a must for Lister.
"Milan is indeed a big city. I just stayed at Inter Milan for a while, and they were able to report it. Tsk tsk tsk!"
Lister didn't react at all when he read the report. Cragnotti didn't know whether Lister really didn't have anything to do with it, or if he was just too shameless and didn't care at all.
Riester put down Gazzetta dello Sport with a smile, and then said to Cragnotti: "Chairman Moratti has expressed his interest in Pavel to me. But in the past two years, not only those who have expressed interest in Pavel
With Inter Milan, there are many clubs. Especially since Pavel has performed well this season, more people are interested in him. I can't communicate with you one by one, don't you think?"
Lister was very casual, as if this matter was not a big deal. In fact, compared to Boboski, Nedved's invitations were much less. But Lister needs this kind of invitation, because only there are more clubs interested in the player.
Only then can Lister be able to get the best contracts for his players.
Nedved's current salary is not very good, and in terms of Italian football, he is not worthy of being treated as the absolute main player in Lazio. Therefore, Riester wants to change Nedved's contract. But Nedved's contract has just been signed.
It will be less than a season soon. Riester needs some pressure, some pressure on Lazio.
Cragnotti was not surprised at all when Moratti invited Nedvěd. Later, Zanetti became the patron saint of Inter Milan and was known as the "young general" Zanetti. But just a few months ago, he was
He and Cragnotti expressed that they wanted to exchange Zanetti and money for Nedved. However, Cragnotti rejected Moratti's proposal.
"Actually, it's mainly because Pavel's performance is getting better and better, so it has attracted the attention of many clubs. After all, Pavel's salary is relatively low, and they are willing to offer high salaries. Pavel..."
Cragnotti couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Lister. But the little Cragnotti next to him shook his head, because Lister's words were very simple. See if my players are so popular, should the club improve it?
his salary.
"I don't skimp on the salary for good players."
Craniotti interrupted Lister's verbose words and gave Lister an answer very domineeringly. Lister liked this most about Craniotti, and he was never stingy when it came to treating his players. Hearing that Craniotti
After Oti's words, Riester immediately smiled and said: "That's what I told them. Sergio is the most generous boss in Serie A, and Pavel's salary will be increased soon."
The contract issue needs to be discussed separately, but Cragnotti's answer is a positive answer. So List immediately changed the topic and said: "In fact, Chairman Moratti wants Inter Milan to play games in China to expand
Inter Milan’s influence in Asia. I hope to help Inter Milan establish an absolute popularity advantage in Asia.”
"Going to compete in China?"
Cragnotti asked Lister in surprise. Lister nodded and said: "Inter Milan has a close relationship with China. As early as 20 years ago, in 1979, we played in China, so
It is very popular in China. The Chinese market is huge, and everyone hopes to develop the Chinese market. There are tens of millions or even over 100 million fans there, and all the giants are eyeing that market. Chairman Moratti knows that I am in Chinese football.
I have a lot of connections, so Chairman Moratti hopes that I can help connect people."
Cragnotti's love for Lazio is unquestionable, and his ambitions also exist. His biggest goal is to make Lazio become an Italian giant team on par with the Milan duo and Juventus. Riester directly and
When he mentioned the competition in China, Cragnotti might not feel much about it. But when Lister talked about it from the side, it would attract his interest.
"You agreed?"
Liszt shook his head and said with a pity: "Inter Milan still has a lot of fans in China. If Inter Milan can be allowed to play in China, the profit will be considerable. Unfortunately, coach Hodgson believes that playing in China may affect pre-season preparations.
Chairman Moratti can only give up this idea, which also cuts off my financial path."
Cragnotti nodded. It is difficult to tell the truth from what Riester said. Anyway, some of them are true and some are true, but one thing Cragnotti still admitted. That is that Moratti likes to change coaches very much, but he and later
The Florentino is still a little different.
Moratti has a characteristic, although he also likes to change coaches. But after he just hired a coach, he listens to the coach's words very much. He will satisfy you with any player you want, and there is only one condition, which is results. Moratti
The biggest characteristic is that he is anxious. As long as the coach cannot meet the performance requirements, he will fire him immediately. If Hodgson really objects and thinks it will affect the preparations for the pre-season, then Moratti will definitely listen to Hodgson. Moratti because of Hodgson's
He objected to not being able to go to China, but Cragnotti, who was sitting next to List, had some ideas.
"Rister, do Serie A have many fans in China?"
"Of course." Riester gave Cragnotti a very positive answer, and then continued: "The number of viewers of Serie A every weekend in China should easily exceed 30 to 40 million people. If it is like Milan Derby, Roma
For a heavyweight game like Derby, there will be tens of millions of people watching a game. It can be said that there are nearly 100 million fans in China, and 90% of them are Serie A fans."
"Are there really that many fans?"
Cragnotti was a little surprised. There are tens of millions of fans, nearly 100 million fans. To be honest, many European clubs dare not even think about it. Riester gave Cragnotti a very definite answer. Cragnotti is very psychological.
It was yearning, so he looked at Riester and said: "Rister, do you think we have many Lazio fans in China?"
"More!" Riester raised his index finger and said seriously: "Although Lazio does not have as many fans as Milan and Juventus, there are quite a lot of fans in China, with eight million fans if not tens of millions.
Of course, this is mainly because Milan and Juventus have a glorious history and have performed well in recent years. However, Lazio has also performed very well in the past two years and has many stars. Therefore, the number of fans in China is also growing rapidly.
"
"In fact, Chinese fans really want to see the teams they support in person. If any of their clubs come to China to compete, they will become the club with the most fans in China."
The club with the most fans? Cragnotti didn’t say anything, but his eyes shone. Cragnotti’s biggest dream is to surpass giants like Milan and Juventus and become a Serie A giant. So there is something about List.
Attract him. He cannot currently surpass them in Italy, but in some aspects he still wants to overwhelm them. Although China is in the far east, it overwhelms the Milan duo and Juventus within Asia. For Cragno
It's still a very attractive thing to do.
"Rister, if Lazio wants to go to China to play, is it possible?" (To be continued.
