"Liester, you are not resolute. This is the transfer fee record in Dutch football, six million US dollars!"
Lister looked at Arnesen crying and shook his head. Van Nistelrooy's transfer fee of six million US dollars is indeed a transfer fee record within Dutch football. But for the current Eindhoven, this amount of money is not
A huge number. Because Eindhoven’s season is not over yet, but many players have already decided to leave Eindhoven. Elite players like Cocu, Newman, Zenden, and Stam are all leaving Eindhoven.
Hoven. Eindhoven will not be short of money this summer. On the contrary, it should be rich and don't know how to spend it. Moreover, Arnesen values Ruud Ruud very much, so he is willing to spend six million US dollars.
Lister is very happy now. Because he helped Arnesen lower the price this time, Lister and the Heerenveen club directly stated that Ruud van Nistelrooy would only go to PSV. This is of great help to Eindhoven, because it makes Heerenveen
The Finnish club has lost the room to bargain with other clubs. Arnesen is also very interesting, or he is very knowledgeable.
List helped PSV achieve this, and Arnesen also did what he should do. According to ordinary transfers, the average agent’s commission in the middle is 10% of the transfer fee. In fact, except for
Without top agents, most agents get less than 10% in transfer commissions. But this is just a general transfer commission. Riester helped Arnesen lower the price this time, which can be regarded as helping Ein.
Hoving made a great contribution. Arnesen also generously gave Lister a commission of one million dollars.
Lister was not embarrassed at all, because for Lister, Lister was qualified to receive these commissions. Seeing Lister not speaking, Arnesen also smiled. When he met Lister only two and a half years ago,
List is still a small rural agent living in the Czech Republic. But two and a half years later, List has become an agent who can be treated on an equal footing with Eredivisie giants like PSV.
When he met Riester for the first time, Arnesen was certain that Riester would be very powerful in the future. However, he did not expect that Riester would develop so quickly in the past two and a half years.
"Frank, I'm easy to talk to. If you like my players, you can come to me at any time. I like doing business with you."
What Lister said sounded nice, but Arneson wouldn't completely believe it. If this time it wasn't Arneson's million-dollar commission, Arneson believed that Lister would never cooperate with him in lowering the price. On the contrary, Arneson could be sure that if
There is no benefit to PSV. Riester will definitely take his time in the middle, and even interfere in the middle to increase the transfer fee a lot. Then he will get what he deserves from the Heerenveen club for the commission he got from PSV.
That portion.
But there was no way around it, and Arnesen didn't blame List. Because that's what managers like List relied on to make money.
"By the way, Frank. You, PSV, are a Dutch giant with a lot of outstanding youth players. How about leaving me a piece of the pie? Let me pick two players from them, what do you think?"
This is a test for List. List has always been very low-key in Dutch football before, especially after poaching Ruud van Nistelrooy, and he did not dare to make any moves. List is afraid that if he makes too big a move, he will be easily attracted by local Dutch agents.
People's counterattack. Therefore, after Ruud van Nistelrooy, List did not pursue the victory. On the contrary, List did nothing in Dutch football and was quiet. Therefore, List seemed so low-key in Dutch football.
But after enduring it for more than a year, Riester felt that it was almost done. The Ruud van Nistelrooy incident had also passed for more than a year. During this period, the Dutch agents kept showing up to be nasty, and everyone almost forgot about Riester.
It’s time to dig up Van Nistelrooy. Eindhoven is a treasure. Although their youth training camp is not as good as Ajax, it has produced many good players. Riester hopes to learn from Eindhoven’s youth training camp.
Recruit one or two players from the youth academy.
"Lister, there are many agents who are eyeing young players at PSV. I will not restrict the actions of any agent."
Now the relationship between List and PSV is getting closer and closer. If before, it was just List and Arnesen who had a good relationship, then now PSV has Ruud Ruud van Nistelrooy and Garacek. Suddenly they have it.
The relationship between the two Liszt players is very close. Although Arnesen was a little worried. Worried that Liszt's power in PSV would continue to grow, he never thought of stopping Liszt. Because Arneson
I know that Lister's eyes are not on the Eredivisie, but Lister's ambitions are on the entire European football world...
As for the agents currently active in the Eindhoven youth training camp, they are all agents who have a good relationship with the Eindhoven club. General agents cannot survive in the Eindhoven youth training camp. Because the top management of Eindhoven each has its own
They do not allow unfamiliar agents to put their hands into their youth training camp.
"Then I have to thank you."
Lister was very happy to receive Arnesen's approval because he could legitimately reach out to PSV Eindhoven's youth training camp.
"No thanks. List, if you still have players like Ruud van Nistelrooy, introduce them to me. Don't worry, as long as he is a good player, even if he is not your player, we will get the commission for PSV
I will never be stingy."
Lister has collaborated with Arnesen several times, and he knows that although Arnesen likes to care about everything and has a strong desire to control, the rules are absolute. When it is time to take action, he will never care about it. Lister is very good at it.
Love working with people like Arneson.
"Frank, do you really believe my vision?"
"Of course. If you don't become an agent, I will hire you to be the sports director in Eindhoven."
Arnesen gave Liester a very positive answer. Arnesen admired Liester's vision in football. Although Arnesen was confident enough in this aspect, he still admired Liester.
Te smiled, and then said seriously: "Frank, you know what I like best? I like people to compliment me the most. Since I am in a good mood today, I will introduce you to a player."
Arneson also immediately became serious. He knew that Lister would never speak freely in this regard, so he wanted to listen carefully to who Lister was talking about? Will he give himself a huge surprise?
"Did you Eindhoven pay attention to last year's World Junior Championships in Egypt?"
Arnesen shook his head. Although the World Youth Championship is also a gathering place for young talented players, European football pays more attention to the World Youth Championship. Because compared to the World Youth Championship, the World Youth Championship is a concentration camp for talents. And at the World Youth Championship
The talent of many talented players in the Youth Championship can be more conspicuous. The players in the World Junior Championship are too young. Some young players have physical development earlier, and then they performed very well in the World Junior Championship. But when everyone is eighteen or nineteen years old
When they are young, they are no longer conspicuous. Similarly, many players who performed mediocrely in the World Youth Championship will shine brightly in the World Youth Championship after they grow two or three years older.
Therefore, as the general manager of Eindhoven, Arnesen will pay great attention to the World Youth Championship, but he has not paid too much attention to the World Junior Championship. Unless talented players like Maradona and Ronaldo appear in the World Junior Championship, it is estimated that they can
Catching Arneson's eye.
"The champion of last year's World Junior Championships in Egypt was Brazil. They produced the best player. This player's name is Ronaldinho. He is a super talented player with talent no less than Ronaldo. He is already 18 years old this year.
Signed a professional contract with Gremio club. If you want to do it, do it as early as possible."
Lister introduced Ronaldinho to PSV. Lister never thought of being Ronaldinho's agent because his agent is his brother, and because he is Gremio
player, so he has a deep relationship with Ribeiro, another big Brazilian agent. Therefore, when Rist went to Brazil last time, he gave up becoming Ronaldinho's agent. But Rist hopes to help
They go hand in hand and deepen their relationship with Eindhoven.
"He's great?"
"Tell me about a talent that can rival Ronaldo. Don't you think it's outstanding?"
Ronaldo is currently the most outstanding star in European football. Known as an "alien", he just won the title of Footballer of the Year last year and is now very popular. The 1998 World Cup is coming soon. In the eyes of many media, this is Ronaldo's ascension to the throne.
World Cup stage.
Ronaldo was brought to Europe by Arnesen himself and brought to Eindhoven. Listening to Riester boasting that Ronaldinho has the same outstanding talent as Ronaldo, I was really curious. Arnesen admired Riester very much.
Although he has a special vision, it does not mean that he blindly trusts Riester. So he asked: "Do you have any information about him?"
"certainly!"
The last time Riester went to Brazil, he was not able to dig out a few outstanding players, but it was not that he gained nothing. There he clearly understood the sphere of influence in Brazilian football and also had a cooperation agreement with Ricardo. Riester asked Riester to
Cardo has a comprehensive investigation of Ronaldinho, and then all the information will be sent to Riester.
"Frank, I will send you his information. If you like it, then I can help you contact Ronaldinho."
List quickly asked someone to bring him Ronaldinho's information. But before Arneson could decide, List received a call from Michael Williams.
Michael Williams met with his old colleague Kenyon, the current top executive of Manchester United, because of the commercial competition. He expressed his intention to this aspect, but he did not expect Peter Kenyon to be interested in Manchester United playing in China.
Very interested. He sent an intention to meet and negotiate with List through Michael Williams.
There’s nothing to say. Of course Rist agreed. (To be continued.)
