Gibson is low-key, but has his own opinions. Lister's rhetoric really made Gibson a little excited. Gibson can be said to have strongly supported Middlesbrough in the past seven years, investing more than 70 million pounds in Middlesbrough transfers.
market.
If we were to invest more than 70 million pounds in seven years in the 21st century, the investment would be very small. Because with the arrival of Abramovich a few years later, Premier League teams will spend more and more money.
The more fierce it is. Seventy million pounds in seven years is the bottom of the Premier League. At that time, it was normal to invest more than several hundred million in seven years.
But the past seven years have been different. Seven years ago, five million pounds was the Premier League transfer record. Until this summer, the Premier League transfer record was Alan Shearer's fifteen million pounds. The investment in these seven years
You can count on one hand the number of Premier League teams that surpass Middlesbrough. But the results are not satisfactory.
Gibson understands that there are too many parallel imports among the more than 70 million pounds of players imported by Middlesbrough. Too many parallel imports waste too much of Middlesbrough's transfer fees. Therefore, he also wants to know an outstanding agent like Lister.
.That’s why he investigated it carefully.
"En Riester has a very good reputation in Spanish football, and many clubs are willing to deal with him. Moreover, Riester has two head coaches, and the situation of coach Benitez is easy to find out. Riester obtained the training from Benitez.
Coach Si began to support him strongly when he was at the Extremadura Club and was very generous with players. The players that Riester introduced to Coach Benitez are now famous. Including Jankoler and Wei
Senter et al.”
Helping Gibson investigate the situation was Middlesbrough's general manager Boro. This person was a close confidant of Gibson, had been following Gibson and had been the club's general manager for a long time. Boro handed over all the circumstances he investigated.
Gave it to Gibson. Gibson looked at these materials and thought about what Lister said. His heart felt slightly moved.
"What do you think of Riester's proposal?"
Gibson thought about it and asked Boro.
"From the perspective of coach Benitez's development, it is good for us to cooperate with him. However, we are not sure whether Rist will support coach Moyes as he supports coach Benitez."
Hearing Boro's answer, Gibson showed a smile and said: "His support will not be less than that of coach Benitez. Because the development prospects of the Premier League will attract all the agents in European football. List and List
The relationship between Retford and Jerome Anderson is not good, and there are few partners in the Premier League that he can choose to cooperate with. Maybe List just wants to use David Moyes to build his own fortress in English football.
"
Lister would be very surprised if he were here. Gibson completely guessed what Lister was thinking about some simple things. Lister originally wanted to form an alliance with Sunderland. Unfortunately, because of his relationship with Stretford
After the conflict is resolved, the only option is to give up the strategic alliance with Sunderland.
Lister does not want Moyes to go to Everton. Although Everton is a traditional strong team in England, their board of directors is very stingy. They will not give more support to Moyes. On the contrary, Middlesbrough's Gibson
Richer and more generous, once Moyes takes charge of Middlesbrough, Middlesbrough will definitely become one of the top teams in the Premier League. Therefore, in Lister's view, Middlesbrough is far more suitable to cooperate with than Everton.
"Do you agree with cooperation?"
"Let's see first. Let's learn more about David Moyes. If David Moyes is really capable and Riester is really willing to do his best to help, it will not be a bad thing for us."
…………
After screening among the Premier League clubs, Lister believes that Middlesbrough is the most suitable for Moyes, but Lister will not put his eggs in one basket. Because in the Premier League, there are many other clubs suitable for Moyes. Just like
As Lister told Moyes, Sunderland and Everton are both suitable. And there is still half a season left in the 2000-01 season. This matter can be discussed slowly. After all, Middlesbrough is currently here.
The most important thing is how to avoid relegation.
The year 2000 has passed and it is already 2001. List has returned to the Czech Republic and to Prague. Because there is a big event waiting for List today, which should be said to be a big event in the entire Czech football world.
The first real, modern youth training base in the Czech Republic will be established here. The establishment of this youth training base is not only supported by the Czech Football Association, but also by the higher-ups. So much so that there is support from the above.
, the Prague city government approved 80 hectares of land for the Football Association in the suburbs as a youth training base. It is even larger than the Clafontaine youth training base in France, which is only 56 hectares.
According to the plan of the Czech Football Association, there will be eleven grass football fields and three artificial fiber fields, a total of fourteen football fields. There will also be schools, hospitals, etc. next to it. There are only coaches stationed here all year round.
There will be more than 80 people and more than 30 masseurs. The scale will far exceed that of the Clairefontaine youth training base in France.
Of course, this is just a formalization, and there is simply not that much money now. The Czech Football Association, Liszt, and Puma conducted several negotiations and finally reached an agreement. Puma invests 3 million euros per year, plus all training clothes.
Provided by them. And Riester also raised his investment standards, investing 6 million euros in the first year, and then investing 4 million euros in each of the remaining four years.
In this way, Puma will invest 15 million euros in the next five years, and Riester will invest 22 million euros in the next five years. The total investment by both parties in the next five years will reach 37 million euros, plus the Czech Football Association
With an investment of 5 million in the next five years, a total of 42 million euros will be raised. When the money is in place, the youth training base will be initially completed.
Puma's investment is for the first five years. If they want to continue investing, they can discuss it at that time. However, Puma's naming rights for the youth training base are for ten years. And Rist will continue to invest at the end of the contract, that is, after
Riester invested five million euros per year for five years.
Everyone's interests have been discussed. What Puma wants is advertising effect, so he asked the youth training base to be named "Puma Youth Training Base". As for the Czech Football Association, of course it is to improve the performance of the national team. As long as the national team performs well
Everything is good. And we have negotiated with List. The ownership of the players in the youth training base has been distributed between the two parties. The Czech Football Association got three, and List got seven.
"Liester, I hope that in ten years we in the Czech Republic can truly compete with the strong European teams."
Merkley stood in front of the youth training base and said to List very proudly. Lister looked at the youth training base that had begun construction. It is still a wilderness. With Lister and Puma's first phase of 9 million euros
, and one million euros from the Czech Football Association have been received, and ten million euros are available. The construction of the youth training base has also begun. Riester knows that if this grand and standardized youth training base is to be fully completed, it is
It will take several years.
"Bawell, I'm thinking about when I can get my money back after investing so much money."
"Hahaha."
Merkley burst out laughing when he heard List's words. List paid a heavy price for this youth training base problem. It turns out that List's plan involved an investment of tens of millions of euros in the first five years, but the Czech Football Association should
It is said that Merkley's big plan led List to invest more money. List will invest 22 million euros in the first five years, and 25 million euros in the next five years. In
In the next ten years, Riester will invest 47 million euros in this youth training base.
It can be said that without List’s investment, this youth training base would not have been established. List is now calculating whether he can earn back his money in the next ten years. List is not a super rich man with a net worth of tens of billions.
An investment of 50 million euros is a considerable investment for List.
"Rister, when this youth training base graduates two to three hundred players every year, your money will double."
Lister smiled slightly. This is what Lister was waiting for. For such a large youth training base, there should be more than two hundred graduates every year. Lister hopes that by then these players will be all over the Czech football world, and it is best to be able to
Go abroad to earn foreign exchange. Then the 50 million euros you invest may be earned back in one summer. Even if there are not 200 graduates, as long as there are 100 graduates, it will be very good.
"Pavel, the current Czech players are the golden generation. But when this group of players passes, our Czech football may be in a downturn for a few years."
Merkley nodded. The Czech golden generation of players are now very young, and they can last until about 2006 at most. If the sports life is longer, it may be until 2008. But based on the current construction speed of the Czech youth training base,
It won't take two or three years to have a few players. Only after three or four years can we start to have small players.
For this youth training base to really play its role, it will be seven or eight years before it can inject blood into Czech football. It is estimated that it will take more than ten years to really expect it to cultivate a large number of talented players.
"Any strong team has its peaks and troughs. This is true for Brazil and Germany, and it is even more true for us in the Czech Republic. As long as our youth training continues, our Czech football will not stop."
List shrugged, and then looked at the wilderness behind him. Here lies the dream of Czech football, and also the dream of List's future. List relied on his memory to become the number one agent in world football, but more than ten years later
This memory is gone. When the time comes, Lister will need a more stable player market to support him, and this youth training base is Lister’s biggest backing. With this largest youth training base in European football, Lister will be able to continue to play in
European football is all the rage.
ps:
Three updates, I hope for your understanding. Four updates a day is too difficult, and I will never dare to boast like this again.
