Lucio's transfer of tens of millions of euros has almost been finalized. Riester is in a good mood, because Lucio's transfer of tens of millions of euros will also bring a certain amount of income to Riester. This is when Riester introduced Lucio to Ané
It was something that the two parties had agreed upon when they signed the contract. Because PSV last season was the double champion, the Eredivisie champion and the Dutch Cup champion. Therefore, Riester relied on the agreement signed when he introduced Lucio and Ronaldinho.
According to the contract, the money received from PSV last season was 400,000 US dollars. And this season, PSV's performance is still very good, and Riester can still receive a certain amount of income according to this clause. In the winter, Lucio will earn 10 million euros.
From the transfer, Riester was able to get nearly one million euros in commission.
Although the money can't be said to be a lot, List is still very happy. Because Lucio and Ronaldinho didn't put any thought into it, but just acted as an intermediary to introduce them to Eindhoven.
That's all.
However, Riester did not stay in Eindhoven, but planned to go to Spain. Because Valencia's recent results are not very good, Benitez's start in Valencia cannot be said to be very good. Although the results
It's not bad, but everyone's expectations are still a bit low. Riester is worried about Benitez's current mood, so he plans to go to Valencia to see if there is any solution.
What's more important is that at this time, Riester hopes to stabilize the Valencia senior management. He hopes that the Valencia senior management will not put pressure on Benitez. But just as he was about to arrive in Spain, he received a call from Italy.
"Sergio, why are you so anxious to see me for something important?"
Lister has not developed many contacts in Serie A. The only person who can find Lister is Lazio President Cragnotti. Lazio is now in a period of prosperity and is invincible in the Italian arena. What's more important is that
Lazio now spends lavishly like Abramovich's Chelsea later.
Cragnotti's investment in Lazio is surprising. In the seven years since 1992, Lazio's investment in the transfer market has exceeded US$200 million, and it is even possible to see the tail end of US$300 million.
No one in European football can compare with such investment. Even Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, and Juventus cannot compare.
The first Premier League champion to accumulate money was Blackburn. But Blackburn’s investment pales in comparison to Cragnotti’s. Especially in terms of investment in the player market, Blackburn is simply a fraction of Lazio’s investment.
.
In March this year, Lazio was listed on the Milan stock market, which brought huge economic income to Lazio. Therefore, the current Craniotti is even more ambitious. He is already very old, but every time Riester sees Craniotti
Oti, you can see enough confidence in his eyes. He really wants to make Lazio the number one giant in Serie A.
"Lister, here we come. Sorry, I'm in such a hurry to come over to you. Sit down and have a cup of coffee."
Craniotti and Riester had known each other for more than three years, and they talked to each other much more casually. He was busy with time, and when Riester came in, he was already making a cup of coffee and waiting for Riester.
"Sergio, Lazio is very proud of itself recently. How can you be of any use to me?"
Lazio always spends tens of millions of euros to buy players, and there are very few players in European football that he can't buy. Although Riester is currently playing very well, he really doesn't have any players that meet Lazio's requirements.
"Lister, don't belittle yourself. I do need your help."
"Keep talking."
Lister wanted to hear if there was anything else a wealthy man like Cragnotti could do that he could help with.
"Lopez, Claudio Lopez."
Riester was stunned. Lopez is a Valencia player. This summer, Lazio bid 30 million euros, but Oti rejected it. Oti believes that Valencia has changed too much this season.
Selling top scorer Lopez would not be a good idea, so he rejected Lazio directly. Unexpectedly, Cragnotti hadn't given up yet.
"Lopez Sergio, this is not an easy task. You should know that Lopez is Valencia's number one player."
Lopez is fast, explosive, has excellent skills, and his shooting is even better. It is a very important point in the current Valencia, especially with Jan Koller at the front, Lopez's characteristics are fully displayed. With this
With the protection of Jankoler, Lopez can grab points and receive passes from Mendieta and run into space, which is even more useful during counterattacks. After the start of the new season, he is still Valencia's top scorer.
"It's just because of the difficulty that I came to you. You also know that there was no problem in the summer. Valencia's attitude was too tough. It didn't leave us any room for bargaining. I know you
I have certain connections in Valencia, and the head coach of Valencia is one of your players. I believe you should be able to help us."
Lister did not agree immediately. Because Lister knew one thing, if Lopez's transfer can go through, the cost of this transfer will definitely exceed 30 million euros. This is the first time for Lister.
**To do such a large amount of business. The highest transfer that List has handled so far is the transfer of Jankoler. Therefore, List is willing to be careful. If the operation is really successful, for List in this industry
The improvement of reputation has great benefits, but failure will make Lister ridiculed by many people.
"Rister, I won't let your help go in vain. If you help us convince the Valencia senior management, then I will give you a fair share of the commission."
"I've never worried about that."
Riester smiled and shook his head. After knowing Cragnotti for so many years, he still knew some of Cragnotti's surnames. The best thing about this guy is that he never stingy with money. He doesn't give what he should.
Bargain with you. Riester knows that as long as he helps Lazio acquire Lopez, Cragnotti will definitely give him enough benefits.
"Sergio, tell me exactly how much Lazio are willing to spend for Lopez. Twenty million, thirty million or forty million, I have to know."
This matter is not impossible to do, and it is not difficult to do. List has already thought of many ways, but in the final analysis it still depends on money. So List wants to know whether Craniotti is willing to help Luo
How much does Pest cost.
Riester knew that Vieri's transfer from Lazio to Inter Milan this summer was worth 50 million euros. Although Lopez is not as good as Vieri, he is also Valencia's number one and a very outstanding striker among Argentine players currently in Europe.
It can't be cheap, otherwise Lazio wouldn't offer 30 million euros in the summer.
"Thirty million to thirty-five million euros is something I can accept. Forty million euros is not something I can't afford. But if it exceeds forty million euros, there's no need to talk about it."
When it comes to money, Cragnotti looks like he doesn't care at all. He has the attitude of a nouveau riche, telling people to come quickly if I have money.
Thirty million, thirty-five million, forty million. Lazio is indeed a rich man, and Cragnotti is indeed the most generous owner in European football. Such an investment is difficult to say among other clubs.
Difficult. But according to Craniotti, these things are easy.
Riester thought for a while. Although Valencia's two major shareholders, Roig and Soler, are both rich, Valencia is not private after all. They have to consider how they spend money. After all, they are only major shareholders.
That's it. Although Valencia's performance is good, the income is not very low. But Valencia is still not a very wealthy club.
They were not moved by the offer of 30 million. What would happen if the offer was 35 million? What would happen if the offer was 40 million euros? Riester did not believe that Valencia could hold on.
However, I don’t know how the Lazio representative who negotiated with Valencia in the summer offended Valencia’s senior management. It seems that Valencia’s senior management is unwilling to negotiate directly with Lazio. That’s why Cragnotti found Riester. Otti is
A person who understands, Riester believes that Otti will never act out of emotion. Even if there is any trouble with Lazio in the summer, there should not be any problems.
"Okay. Sergio, leave this matter to me. But even if I help you handle this matter, I think the transfer should be done next summer. I will not talk about letting him in the winter.
Transferred."
"I understand."
Cragnotti knew that Benitez had just become the head coach of Valencia and would never sell the top scorer in the first year. Therefore, he fully understood what Riester said.
"Okay, Sergio. Just wait for my good news at home. I'm willing to help you with this matter, so don't worry too much."
This is Riester's first time doing a transfer operation of more than 30 million euros. So Riester is slightly excited. Because there will definitely be more and more such transfers in the future, let's warm up today. Success.
List can increase his popularity. Even if he fails, Lopez is not List's player, so what does it matter. Even if it is a bit embarrassing and makes people laugh, as long as there are no problems with the players in his hands, List's strength
There would be no losses. Therefore, Riester came to Spain and Valencia easily.
Lopez is Valencia's top player, and Benitez also relies heavily on it. But Lister doesn't care about Lopez's transfer, because Lister is sure to find a better player for Benitez. Even if Lopez leaves
, there will still be better players coming to Valencia.
