292 To Fight

"Rister, the recent situation is not good for me. Cortez has clearly expressed his support for Oti to become the club president."

Francisco Roig is in his sixties, but when he participated in the presidential election this year, he was glowing again, as if he was ten or twenty years younger. Francisco Roig really likes Valencia, doesn’t he?

For something else.

The Roig family has been in Valencia for two hundred years. Everyone in Valencia does not know the three Roig brothers. Francisco Roig is even more famous in Valencia and does not need to use the chairmanship of Valencia.

To increase his popularity. Roig is just a simple Valencia fan, and he really wants to make some achievements as the chairman of Valencia.

"Cortez?"

"Well. He has already issued a statement, saying that Otti is the most suitable candidate for the chairman of Valencia. He said that Otti is the number one contributor to Valencia's achievements in the past few seasons. He will fully support Otti to become Valencia president.

Chairman."

Francisco Roig was very dissatisfied when he talked about Cortez. Riester sighed. Riester had already thought about this. As the current president of Valencia, Cortez, when it comes to Riester,

I admire him very much. Although Rist has not seen Cortes a few times, because Cortes himself is very low-key. You can't see Cortes usually.

Cortes became the chairman of Valencia, which was completely the result of a strange combination of circumstances. As a minority shareholder of Valencia, he was originally not qualified to take over the position of chairman of Valencia. However, because of Mijatovic's incident that year

, Roig stepped down in embarrassment. The Valencia board of directors was in chaos. After Roig stepped down in embarrassment, they were gnashing their teeth at Soler. Therefore, Roig and Soler were at loggerheads. In desperation, the Valencia board of directors finally

Only then did Cortes, the intermediary, become the president of Valencia.

When he became the chairman of Valencia, Valencia was in its most turbulent moment. He used the "inaction" governance method as chairman of Valencia. First, he promoted Llorente to become the general manager of Valencia.

Then let Oti become the sports director of Valencia. Let Oti be in charge of sports and competitive matters, and let Llorente be in charge of business. He was completely behind the scenes and it was impossible to see that Valencia still had a chairman.

It's a pity that Llorente was a sports director and did not have any connections or strength in business. After a few rounds, he soon became embarrassed in the business field. But Otti, who became a monk halfway, did surprisingly well. So Corte

Si gradually regained power in the commercial field from Llorente.

After several confrontations, Llorente, Roig's representative, was finally ousted, and then a new Valencia senior management headed by Cortes and Oti was formed. In four years, Cortes remained indifferent.

Roig has been Valencia president for more than four years. Roig and Soler fight every day. But Cortez's position has always been stable.

The ability to be able to work both sides and prevent both parties from taking measures against him is absolutely unique. Sometimes you don't even feel that Valencia still has a president, but under such circumstances, Cortez completed Valencia's victory.

Rencia's leap is usually invisible. It was only now that Cortez was about to leave office that people quietly discovered the power of Cortez.

We have cooperated with Otti for a long time. Cortes likes Otti very much. Therefore, he strongly supported Otti before leaving office. It turns out that Roig and Soler are about the same strength. Now Cortez, the former Valencia president

Supporting Otti immediately caused many neutral shareholders to favor Otti. That's why Roeg hoped that Riester would come back quickly to help him turn the situation around.

"Cortez and Oti have worked together for many years. This is not surprising."

Lister sighed. Lister really didn't want to stand up at this time, because Valencia is now the most important moment. The Champions League has entered the quarterfinals, and in the league it is also a life-or-death battle with Real Madrid. This is a sprint.

stage.

As long as List is involved at this time, Benitez, including Jankoler, Vicente, Jankulovsky, and even Ronaldinho, who has a deep relationship with List, will all

Get involved. This will definitely have a huge impact on Valencia's next results.

"Well, Soler and I have about the same support in the board of directors. Now that Cortez is doing this, it's very detrimental to me."

"Tell me what you want me to do."

Although there are all kinds of disadvantages, since he has promised it long ago, Lister will never hesitate.

"There will be a reception at the club tomorrow night."

"I see."

List nodded. Many things can only be understood but cannot be expressed, such as List's support for Roig. Valencia is not a membership system, so there is no need to make a fuss like the Real Madrid presidential election. If it is a membership system, then Lister

We must bring Benitez and the others to support Roig and let all members see it.

But because Valencia is a joint-stock company, as long as there is the will of the shareholders, it is enough. Let those shareholders know that the team supports Roig during the club’s cocktail party. Those shareholders will naturally know how to choose, especially

Neutral shareholders.

…………

"Sorry, Raphael."

Riester was very sorry for Benitez. Because Valencia performed very well this season, and compared to last season, Valencia's offensive ability has been greatly enhanced.

Benitez gradually created a golden left wing in Valencia. Jankulovski, Vicente, Ronaldinho, and Mutu were all active on the left wing. Valencia's performance this season

The attack from the left wing was so powerful that almost no team could withstand it. When they played against Real Madrid again, Valencia's golden left wing directly crippled Real Madrid's right wing. So much so that Figo couldn't get anything on the right wing.

Salgado's support. Figo was depressed throughout the game.

After the game, "Marca" directly wrote that Florentino should buy Vicente immediately. Because with the support of Jankulovski and Ronaldinho, Vicente

One person directly broke out Salgado. During the game, he completed two passes and one shot. In the end, they defeated Real Madrid 3-2 at the Bernabeu. He shined throughout the game, making Wesson, who was only 20 years old,

He has become the most eye-catching new talented star in Spain. Vicente's net worth has increased exponentially. Now the Spanish media says that it is impossible for Vicente to take away 30 million euros.

Now in La Liga, Valencia and Real Madrid are locked in a tight fight, and no one is leaving the other. The point difference between the two sides is only one point, and Real Madrid is one point ahead of Valencia. In the Champions League, they also successfully broke through the two rounds of the group stage.

They have entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Valencia's current strength is very good and it is entirely possible to win the championship.

But at such an important moment, the battle on Valencia's board of directors has become intense. It is likely to greatly affect the results. Riester feels sorry for Benitez when he thinks about it.

"No. Since I got help from Mr. Roig two years ago and became the head coach of Valencia, of course I have to repay the favor."

Benitez usually has a dead face, and his expression was not good-looking at this time. Because the current situation in Valencia is very good. But Benitez did not blame List, on the contrary, he supported List. Because

Without Roig, there would be no Benitez of Valencia. He doesn't like to owe favors to others. Since he agreed to Roig two years ago, he should support Roig now.

Lister nodded and said: "Thank you, Raphael."

Although Benitez understands Riester, Riester still feels a little sorry for what happened this time. Riester wants to compensate Benitez. He is considering how to compensate Riester.

Benitez is currently developing well in all aspects, but his salary is still not high. For example, in the Premier League, Ferguson's current salary is already 3.5 million pounds, which is more than 5 million euros in euros. Wenger's salary is slightly lower.

A little. But there are also two million pounds. There are already a lot of head coaches in the Premier League whose salary exceeds one million pounds. For example, Robson of Newcastle, Houllier of Liverpool, Ranieri of Chelsea, and John Gerard of Villa.

Li Gaoli, their salaries are more than one million pounds.

Thinking about this, Lister believes that Benitez's salary is still less and his income is somewhat less. Benitez should be compensated in other ways.

It wasn't just Benitez. Riester also thought of Boboski, Nedved and several others. Because they are almost in their thirties now, although based on their careers, they are still able to

It's not impossible to play for five or six years, or even seven or eight years. But after they retire, they can't rest on their laurels.

Bobosky and Nedvěd are okay. Based on their careers, they are estimated to have a net worth of about 20 million euros when they retire. Even if it is not 20 million euros, it is estimated to be about 15 million euros.

That's for sure. But compared to the two of them, many other Czech players don't have such a good income.

Just like Garacek and Lokwencz, it is impossible for them to save tens of millions of euros when they retire. How will they live their lives when they retire? It is always not possible to rest on their laurels. Many players go bankrupt after retirement.

, all caused by having no income after retirement and only knowing how to rest on their laurels. Lister, as their agent, should be responsible for them. Not only responsible for the problems in their careers, but also for their problems after retirement. It cannot be

Let your players retire and then become bankrupt and become beggars.

Benitez is his first manager, and now Lister also has Juande Ramos, Pellegrini and David Moyes. Do you want to learn from Stretford?

Let them invest in their own brokerage company.

But Riester quickly shook his head. Although there were many such things, and it was a good way to win over them, Riester rejected it because such a target was too big and could easily lead to attacks from others.

Tretford dominated the English league and was arrogant for a long time. However, due to strong pressure from public opinion and pressure from the Football Association, he withdrew from the agency he established. Then he became Rooney's agent.

.

If List pulls these head coaches into his agency and becomes shareholders, he might also become a target for others. Or if someone from the World Football Federation or UEFA finds fault with List, it will be a real life

Rist is not willing to do this. But how to give these head coaches some other income.

There are also players of their own, how to help them. Many agents will set up some investment companies and so on, and then help players manage assets. Although List now also helps players manage assets, he always adopts risk-free methods. Although

The people who help Riester are all professionals, but they have not yet formed an effective company. Maybe they can think of ways to do this?

"Lister, there's no need to worry like this. I have a sense of balance in my heart."

Benitez looked at Lister and thought he was worried about Valencia's results. So he comforted Lister. Lister smiled slightly, because for a character like Benitez, he could say such comforting words.

It's really not easy.

"Raphael, just this once."

Lister made a solemn promise to Benitez. Lister would never intervene in club affairs so casually in the future, let alone involve his coach.

"I believe you." (To be continued..)
