Riester has handled the matter of Boboski returning to the Czech Republic. The Czech league is currently considered the best in Eastern Europe. Countries like the former Yugoslavia are at war every day, and even if they are not at war, the country's security is not good. Moreover, their country's economy is also poor.
No, so they have many talented players who can only leave their country at a very young age.
There are also some small countries, and their good players have begun to go to the Czech league. The important thing is that the Czech Republic is relatively wealthy. In addition to good results, Czech clubs also have much higher salaries than other small leagues. Of course, except for this
The Czech League also has relatively few restrictions, and it is not difficult to join a Czech club. Therefore, at present, the Czech League has the foundation to take off. However, the Czech League still lacks some attention and investment is still a lot less. The Czech League wants to achieve
There is still a long way to go to get to the point Merkley imagined.
After settling matters in the Czech Republic, Lister received an invitation from Peter Kenyon.
"Hello Peter."
As soon as Lister and Kenyon sat down, someone handed them coffee and then walked out. Lister looked at Kenyon's office after he became the chairman of Manchester United. Kenyon's office didn't look very bright.
, on the contrary, there is a dark feeling. Although Lister has not studied psychological analysis, he also knows that the layout of Kenyon's office shows that Kenyon is not a very high-profile person.
"Rister, I have already talked with Alex. After David leaves, we are going to bring in a player to replace David. The player we want to bring in is Joaquin Sanchez."
Both of them knew it well today. It was all about Joaquin. Although there are still many wealthy clubs who want to introduce Beckham, there is news in the newspapers every day. After all, a star like Beckham enters the transfer process.
Know the market. Of course the giants will not give up. Barcelona's Laporta is still saying that he wants to bring in Beckham. Instead, Florentino swore in front of the media that Real Madrid had never thought about bringing in Beckham.
M. Real Madrid will definitely not bring in Beckham this summer.
But Riester knew that 90% of the news about Beckham in the media was false, and Florentino's oath was an open-eyed lie. In fact, Beckham's agent has been in frequent contact with Real Madrid
, the personal contract has almost been negotiated. Real Madrid has already started negotiations with Manchester United. With a star of Beckham’s level, and Beckham is also a business superstar, there are not many wealthy clubs in the world that can accommodate Beckham.
indivual.
There is only one disagreement between Manchester United and Real Madrid now, and that is the issue of transfer fees. In the past few years, the transfer market was very busy, and transfers worth 40 to 50 million euros abounded. But in the past two years, transfers in European football have
The market began to slump. If it were the busiest time in the European football transfer market in the past few years, a star of Beckham's level would be embarrassed to make an offer if he didn't have 50 million euros.
Of course Manchester United hopes to sell it for a high price, but Real Madrid also doesn’t want to be taken advantage of. The transfer market is so sluggish now, and there are very few clubs that can buy Beckham. The important thing is that Beckham and Manchester United have completely turned against each other now, so Real Madrid
Taking the initiative. However, while Manchester United is negotiating with Real Madrid, it is also trying to find a replacement for Beckham.
Queiroz introduced Quaresma, but Jason Ferguson even introduced Joaquin to Ferguson. Of course, it was not an introduction to Joaquin. Manchester United has long been paying attention to Joaquin. A wealthy club like Manchester United will pay attention to UEFA.
There are all the talented players in the world. But now Jason Ferguson is talking to Ferguson, and Lister wants to promote this cooperation, so Kenyon is ready to talk to Lister.
In fact, Joaquin is not Manchester United's first choice. After Beckham's departure was confirmed, Manchester United and Ferguson's first choice was Valencia's Ronaldinho. Unfortunately, Ronaldinho's brother and
Russell has made several contacts and has basically decided to join Barcelona. Ronaldinho's idea is very simple. As long as Laporta wins, he will join Barcelona. And even if Laporta loses the selection,
It was only June at that time and there were still many options. So I rejected Manchester United.
And Joaquín was Ferguson’s second choice. As for Quaresma introduced by Queiroz, Ferguson gave up after only a few inspections. Of course, this also has something to do with Barcelona. Because Barcelona also contacted Quaresma, especially
Contact Mendes. Quaresma is also waiting for the end of the Barcelona election.
Joaquin is currently one of the best right midfielders in European football. Ferguson attaches great importance to it. After all, for Manchester United, it is better to introduce a talented player like Quaresma than to introduce a star player like Joaquin who has proven himself.
It is the choice of a wealthy family. In addition, this transfer is made by Lister and Jason Ferguson is in charge. It has an absolute advantage.
"Peter, Joaquin's matter is easy to discuss."
In fact, since List wants Joaquin to go to Manchester United, what Kenyon should do now is to discuss the transfer with the Extremadura Club. But there is something special about Joaquin.
Because half of the current ownership of Joaquín is still in the hands of Riester. At present, La Liga has not abolished this ownership issue, and La Liga will not abolish this system until 2004.
Therefore, Manchester United understands that the issue of buying Joaquin is very simple, but also complicated. Simple because as long as List is dealt with, then this matter will basically not be difficult. But complex, because
Lister not only has half of the ownership, but is also Joaquín's agent. Negotiations with such an opponent are most troublesome.
"Rister, we at Manchester United are going to use part of the cash and Forlan to bring in Joaquin."
"How much cash."
There are not many players that List currently owns, because very few players in European football are willing to sell their ownership to agents. This is becoming more and more the case now. The player ownership that List now owns,
Most of them were acquired a few years ago. Currently, the most valuable one is Joaquin.
"Twelve million pounds, plus Fran."
"Hahaha. Peter, are you kidding me? Is Forlan worth five million euros now? I believe you should know what kind of player Joaquin is. He is currently a player other than Figo and Beckham.
Besides, he is the best right midfielder in European football. His assists in La Liga for the past three years have been in double digits every season. Do you think this little money can take away Joaquin?"
"Then what do you mean..."
Of course, Kenyon knew that it was impossible to buy Joaquin with this amount of money now. But the starting price was the same. Lower the price. Otherwise, how would the subsequent negotiations proceed?
"Peter, the Extremadura club does not need Fran. The Extremadura club already has a striker that needs to be introduced in the summer. I talked with Franzi, Franzi's agent in La Liga.
Real really wants to bring in Forlan. We need cash to sell Joaquín, 25 million pounds."
Kenyon was not surprised by Lister's counteroffer. According to Joaquin's market price, Joaquin was indeed worth 25 million pounds. At the end of the 2002 World Cup, those who wanted to introduce Joaquin
There were many clubs, and none of the prices quoted were less than 30 million euros. As long as Riester agreed, Joaquin would already be a Real Madrid player.
It's a pity that the current European football transfer market is in a sluggish state. Kenyon and List both know this. Twenty-five million pounds is impossible. In fact, List really wants to raise Joaquin's price, as long as Abramovich gets it in the summer.
Negotiating after Ramovich takes over Chelsea will definitely increase Joaquin's price. Because by then Abramovich will definitely disrupt European football transfers and make the transfer market lively again.
But Lister doesn't want to wait until that time. Lister hopes to decide on this transfer as early as possible. He doesn't want any surprises to happen. Forlan is not Extremadura's recruitment target, and Lister doesn't want him either.
Appeared in this transfer.
"Haha. Since you are unwilling to include Fran in this transfer, then exclude him."
Fran's performance at Manchester United was very poor. At the beginning of 2002, Fran arrived at Manchester United for more than 8 million euros. However, he was completely lost at Manchester United and could not find where the goal was. Therefore, Manchester United could only
Forlan was kicked out. Kenyon had just heard from List's words that Villarreal was interested in him, so he quickly picked Forlan out of the transfer.
"But Leicester, twenty-five million pounds, this is too much. If I didn't say anything two or three years ago, it is a big deal now. We at Manchester United can't use all the money from selling David.
As for Joaquin. Although Joaquin is good, he cannot be compared with Beckham."
Kenyon's reaction was not loud. Instead, he said what he meant slowly. Just like Manchester United selling Beckham, it is absolutely impossible for it to be sold for more than 30 million pounds. And if it buys Manchester United for 25 million pounds,
Jin. Including the commission for List, Joaquin's signing bonus, and Beckham's transfer fee. There may be a lot of money left.
Kenyon can't do this kind of loss-making business. Joaquin is very popular, but at present he is still not as good as Beckham. How can he lose money between buying and selling?
"Okay, Peter. Then I will talk to you in another way. I only have half of Joaquín's ownership, and I will sell this half of the ownership for twelve million pounds. As for you and Extremadou
I don’t care how the club negotiates. I won’t tell them my bottom line. It’s up to you how much you can negotiate. What do you think?”
Lister originally wanted to negotiate as a whole, but after thinking about it, it would be more beneficial for each of them to negotiate individually. Lister holds the ownership of the players and is also the player's agent. This negotiation will be beneficial to Lister. As for Extremadura
If the club sells for a good price, that's their ability. If they are bullied by Manchester United and fail to sell for a good price, that's because they don't have the ability.
"Liester, ten million pounds. You sell half of your ownership to us, Manchester United."
"Eleven million pounds."
The pound is very valuable now, and one million pounds is not a small amount. Lister is very careless. Kenyon nodded. Of course, even if Lister and Kenyon discussed this, it was only an approximate amount. The specific amount still needs to be determined.
Let's talk carefully. This is only the amount that everyone can accept.
After doing some calculations, Kenyon was still satisfied with the result. Kenyon knew that List wanted eleven million pounds, but Extremadura Club would never ask for such a high price. List was the agent and had ownership rights.
, so there are more chips. But the Extremadura club does not have that many chips. Kenyon believes that he can compress the transfer fee to less than 20 million pounds.
"Peter, don't worry, I will never reveal any information to the Extremadura Club."
Kenyon wants to talk to List, and then to the Extremadura club. If they know that 11 million pounds have been negotiated between List and Manchester United, then they will definitely want to talk on this basis.
Negotiate.
"Rister, since we have met, let's talk about Joaquin's contract as well."
The two people discussed the general content, including commission, signing bonus, Joaquin's salary, etc. Then the more specific and detailed content required careful negotiation by the staff. Although it was only a general content, they talked about it for nearly three months.
