Lister came to the office of Everton Chairman Philip Carter, and there was Everton head coach McClaren. Both of them were waiting for Lister at the door, which could be regarded as a sign of respect for a big agent like Lister. .
Philip Carter, who was in his sixties, smiled and nodded at Lister. McLaren didn't have much expression. Speaking of which, McLaren didn't have much favorable impression of Lister, because at the time Middlesbrough and McLaren Len had almost reached a verbal agreement. But Lister suddenly appeared and made his own Moyes the head coach of Middlesbrough.
With Moyes taking charge of Middlesbrough, McLaren can only choose another club. That is Everton. If we look at history, Middlesbrough can't catch up with Everton even if they are chasing each other. After all, Everton But it is a traditional strong team in English football. If it had not declined in recent years, it would be a strong team that could be compared with Arsenal and Manchester United.
But it’s different now. Everton is in decline. The team is too poor and cannot be compared with Middlesbrough. Although Middlesbrough is also a weak team and has a lackluster history, who makes its boss willing to invest now? Money. It is easy to come up with tens of millions of pounds a season, but it is very difficult for Everton to come up with more than ten million pounds a season.
For McLaren, the environment at Middlesbrough is far better than that at Everton. Because for young coaches, the so-called history is nonsense, and only current results are the most important. But since he has become Everton As the head coach of Fulton, he must consider the development of the club.
"Hello, Mr. Cherney. I heard that you are in Liverpool, so I take the liberty of disturbing you."
Philip Carter is in his sixties and is a typical Englishman. No matter what happens behind his back, he is polite on the surface. In fact, Philip Carter is very angry now because the Stretford who just left is such a bastard. .The lion is asking for a weekly salary of 20,000 pounds for Rooney, who is about to turn 17.
Philip Carter began to think that Stretford was crazy. He thought that after a period of silence, Stretford had gone crazy thinking about money. After all, an outstanding player like Gerrard only earns 35,000 pounds a week. A year ago, his salary was only 15,000 pounds. Although the value and salary of players have soared now, Rooney is not qualified to be compared with Gerrard.
Gerrard was already favored by many people when he first debuted at Liverpool. Moreover, he was already 21 years old last year and had played in the Premier League for several seasons. But his salary did not even reach 20,000 pounds. And Rooney is nothing. ?
Rooney is a talented boy. But he has not proven himself in the Premier League yet. He is only playing in the youth team and is not even 17 years old. Rooney's current contract is an apprenticeship contract. He can only get 80 pounds per week. Salary. Wanting 20,000 pounds all of a sudden, Philip Carter could only think that Stretford was crazy. Everton was originally prepared to give Rooney a weekly salary of 4,000 pounds. This contract Philip Carter Everyone thought it was too high. It was because Rooney was a real genius.
But Philip Carter cannot ignore Stretford. Even though Stretford seems to have lost all its prestige now, a sick tiger is still a tiger. The prestige of Stretford back then was something that Philip Carter could never forget. In terms of purpose, no one in English football knows how good he is. What Stretford meant in his words was very simple. If Everton did not sign the contract, he would leave Everton with Rooney. This made Philip. Carter was quite angry. However, this anger was buried in Philip Carter's heart and he did not show it at all when facing Lister.
"Chairman Carter, you are kidding. If you need anything, you can always come to me."
"Mr. Cherny, I really have something to ask of you this time."
"Please tell me."
Although List and Liverpool have a very good relationship now, List will not sever ties with Everton for this reason. Dead enemies, mortal enemies. Liverpool and Everton are mortal enemies, but they have little relationship with List.
If it is a rival with similar strength and similar results like PSV and Ajax, then Rist will automatically choose one of the clubs and then sever cooperation with the other club. Including Roma and Lazio, Rist I will never do business with both of them at the same time. But Liverpool and Everton are different.
Liverpool is an English giant, and as long as they don't make big mistakes, they will continue to be strong. But Everton is a top team, and no matter how glorious its history is, it is impossible to rise again, because their board members are very poor. Unless there is someone in the future The oil boss enters Everton, otherwise Everton will never be able to be on an equal footing with Liverpool. The needs of their two teams are also different. Liverpool needs world-class stars. Players who fit their status as a wealthy club. And Everton What they need are some capable players who can help them stabilize themselves in the mid-range team. There is no contradiction in terms of player resources.
What's more important is that only Everton sold players to Middlesbrough last summer. Lister has always remembered this favor. Therefore, Lister is willing to simply help Lister. Even if Lister is within his ability, Lister is willing to do so. Help Everton.
"Our club wants to rent Marseille's Nigerian center back Yabo, but there are currently many clubs who want to rent him. Our club does not have the advantage."
"Jabbok. Yabbok."
Lister thought for a while, and Yabo was historically Nigeria's main central defender and Everton's main central defender. Lister only knew that Yabo was a Nigerian player, and never thought that he had also played in France. But Lister and There is no connection with Marseille. Marseille is a French giant. It was deprived of the Champions League championship due to a bribery scandal and has been up and down in recent years. But now their major shareholder is a big shot, a big shot in the entire European football world.
Marseille suffered a fatal blow because of the scandal. Good players left Marseille one after another. Marseille's management was in chaos, the locker room was in chaos, and they were even relegated in the end. So the mayor of Marseille invited a person to invest in Marseille. That person was the CEO of Adidas Officials Robert Louis and Dreyfus. After this person invested, Marseille slowly recovered its vitality. However, List has no connection with Adidas. Most of List's important players cooperate with Puma.
Czech players are all Puma players, and Miroslav Klose, who plays in the Czech Republic, is also a Puma player. Several new Spanish stars and Ruud van Nistelrooy are all players under Nike. No player under Rist is the same as the football giant. Cooperated with Adidas.
"Mr. Cherney, we know that you have many connections and we hope you can help us get this loan deal. Otherwise, with our Everton strength, it will be difficult for Yabo to come to our Everton."
Philip Carter is a little helpless. Because Everton's transfer fee is limited, it can only choose to rent players. Including the loan of Chinese player Li Tie. And even if it is a loan, Everton does not have an advantage. Because Everton and There aren't many links with Marseille, and Everton don't pay more than other clubs.
Lister did not agree directly. Lister had a wide network of contacts, but he did not have much strength in France. More importantly, he offended Arsenal, namely Arsene Wenger and Jerome Anderson. Wenger is a coach with very wide contacts in France.
"What, Mr. Cherny, are you in trouble?"
List nodded and did not shy away from Philip Carter and McLaren, saying: "I am dissatisfied with Chairman Carter. I have not had any development in France. So far I have only signed one player from the Ligue 2 league in France. And Marseille is more
It doesn’t matter.”
Listening to Lister's words, Philip Carter's face turned gloomy. He really hoped that Lister would help because Everton didn't get into trouble last year. Of course, there would definitely be benefits. But now Lister said there was no way, Carter could only
He can sigh. Even a big broker like List can't do anything, let alone him.
"But it's not impossible."
After a pause, Lister suddenly said slowly. Because Lister thought of a person, Makelele's agent Mark Roger. Although this person was dismissed because of Vieira's transfer to Real Madrid,
He was laughed at by his colleagues in the industry and was kicked out by Arsenal. But he is still very strong, especially because he has a wide network of contacts in France. If it is Marc Rodger, this matter should not be a big problem. After all, it is just
Just a player on loan from Marseille.
"Don't worry, I will help with this matter. You are waiting for my news."
Everton has no money and cannot create much profit for Leicester. But Everton also has advantages, that is, Everton's youth training players are not bad. There is Rooney in the front, and there are players like Rodwell and Barkley in the back.
.Have a good relationship with Everton and be able to have many outstanding young players.
"Thank you. And, Mr. Cerny. Is your Czech goalkeeper Petr Cech willing to come to the Premier League, to our Everton?"
"Peter?"
Philip Carter nodded. List immediately began to think, because List had never thought about this. List had already planned Cech's whereabouts. With this World Cup championship, Cech can go to Ligue 1.
He didn't shine very brightly in the World Cup, but he wasn't that bad either. Especially since he was the main goalkeeper of the World Cup winning team at just 20 years old. Many clubs are already paying attention to him. It would certainly be good if he could go to the Premier League for training.
"Chairman Carter, do you Everton have any transfer funds?"
Although Cech is not expensive, he is not cheap either. He cannot get it without four to five million pounds. How much transfer fee can Everton have? Do they still have money to buy the goalkeeper?
"Mr. Cherny, we hope to pay in installments."
Lister has not thought about going to the Premier League or Everton. However, it would be a good idea to move to Everton. After all, the most profitable league in European football in the future is the Premier League, and he has also considered Chechrist.
Cech's future is in England, and he should succeed in the Premier League. However, if Cech comes to Everton, it will be difficult to transfer to Liverpool in the future. List can sell his players to both Liverpool and Everton, but
It does not mean that Riester can transfer among them.
Figel believed in himself too much, which is why he failed. He thought he was very good, so he helped Benfica poach Porto players. However, this caused the chairman of Porto to be furious, which directly led to Figel's complete withdrawal from Portugal.
Although Everton does not have such strength, such things will make many clubs fear List and make List lose credibility. For List, the gain outweighs the loss.
So if you agree with Everton, then you have to give up the possibility of Cech going to Liverpool. But after thinking about it, List figured it out again. Although Liverpool and List cooperate well, they put too much of themselves into a giant like Liverpool.
It is not a good idea to recruit players. You need to master a certain degree. Now Liverpool has five of its own players, which is already a lot. It can already control the Liverpool dressing room. Let Cech go to the Premier League in advance to receive training, and there will be opportunities in the future.
He went to play for a wealthy club.
"Chairman Carter, we can talk about Peter's issue."
"real?"
Philip Carter is really happy. He is quite proud now. He didn't listen to Stretford last year. If he and Stretford suppressed Lister last year, how could there be so many good things this year.
