This is a very inconspicuous little place in the city of Sao Paulo. It is a very ordinary small alley with a five-story building. Sao Paulo is the capital of Sao Paulo State and the largest city in Brazil and even South America. It is the economy of Brazil.
The center is one of the few international metropolises in South America. High-rise buildings are very common here. If ordinary people pass by this small building, they will not care at all. Because it is too ordinary. There are more and more impressive buildings next to it.
The eye-catching building exists.
But for world football, this place is famous. In Brazilian football, this is almost the holy land of Brazilian football. This was once the place that all agents in world football aspired to. These five floors all belong to one person.
Figel, an agent who once dominated the world of football. This is the office of Figel. All the top coaches and top stars in Brazilian football have been in and out of here.
However, since Figel semi-retired in 2002, the place has become quiet. But today, Figel personally received a figure, a powerful Argentine agent who was once as famous as him but was looked down upon by Figel.
Skadi.
"Juan, what do you think?"
Mascardi was very arrogant. But when faced with Figel, an old guy with the same name as himself, he did not reveal his arrogance. Although the two people were once equally famous, they both knew it well. Just like Bei in Jin Yong's martial arts novels.
Qiao Fengnan and Murong are the same. Although they have the same name, their strength is completely different. Figel has worked hard for thirty years to achieve his status, while Mascardi just relied on his clever mind and his ruthlessness.
He only rose to prominence with his own means and the right time. However, after encountering Hidalgo's poaching because of his lack of background, Mascardi's strength dropped by half. Therefore, Mascardi did not dare to be presumptuous in the face of Figel, who was also hit hard.
Because Mascardi knew that even if Figel suffered a heavy blow, as long as he appeared, he would still be a figure that no one in world football could ignore.
"What resources do you have to attract Barcelona?"
Figel is getting old. Being in his 70s is really old in terms of the agent industry. Coupled with the blow from the 2002 World Cup, Figel is aging rapidly. As a man who dominated world football at that time, in Brazilian football
For the unscrupulous Figel, it is simply a kind of torture to be hit by such a blow. Many people can maintain their humble character after becoming rich overnight. But there are many people who cannot keep calm after falling from a high place.
, began to slump. Those who can rise after falling to the bottom are those with very tough character.
But things have passed, and Figel has survived. Although he is aging very badly, his eyes are bright and he is more energetic than he was more than a year ago.
"Although Juan Riester is very good, he is just a Czech agent. He cooperates with many clubs. It is impossible to face just one club, Barcelona. And we have the best players in South America. As long as we agree to use low prices and
They will definitely be excited to cooperate with Barcelona."
After listening to Mascardi's words, Figel nodded. But he sneered in his heart. It seems that people like him were pushed down for a reason. Mascardi is also an outstanding agent in South America, and now he is like this
Short-sighted.
"Gustavo. What do you want?"
"I heard that Riester has been promoting the transfer of Deportivo Villa to Barcelona recently. I think we should stop this transfer."
A smile slowly appeared on Figel's mouth and he said: "It's no secret that Barcelona is looking for a forward. I want to ask, if it's not Villa, who do you think is more suitable?"
“Eto’o of Mallorca.”
"Wagner Ribeiro's idea. Haha, not bad, not bad."
Eto'o is a Cameroonian player. Among South American agents, Ribeiro has the deepest relationship with Cameroonian football. Ribeiro has been in Brazilian football for more than ten years, but his relationship with Cameroonian football goes far beyond Brazil.
Relations in football. Many Cameroon players were able to come to Europe because of Ribeiro. Many Cameroon players’ agents are Ribeiro.
Figel clearly understands. Eto'o was spotted by Real Madrid when he was very young, and Ribeiro actually contributed to it. It's just that Eto'o has a weird personality and is unwilling to become a big agent like Ribeiro.
Players, because there is no freedom. So Eto'o's agent is a good old man. Eto'o makes all decisions by himself. But although Eto'o did not let Ribeiro become his agent, the relationship between them
The relationship is still good.
"Juan..."
Mascardi wanted to say something more, but Figel waved his hand. Then he thought for a while and said: "In addition to Sandro, Barcelona's football manager Begilistan also has a say in the decision to transfer."
Although Figel is semi-retired, he is well aware of the news in world football. Even after the Barcelona election, the internal situation of Barcelona is very clear.
"Looks like I need to go out for a walk. I haven't seen Sandro for a long time."
"good."
Mascardi was convinced when he heard that Figel was willing to come out. Although Mascardi and Ribeiro are also known as the world's leading agents, Mascardi was even as famous as Figel at one time. But Mascardi
Both Scardy and Ribeiro understand that in South America, there is only one person who can truly be called a big broker and a dominant player, and that is the old man in front of him. Through his company, he has gone to all over the world.
If the total number of Brazilian players exceeds 8,000, some people even think it exceeds 10,000.
Although Figel has been hit repeatedly, his current power is not half of what it used to be. But he is still the most powerful agent in South America. Now everyone looks down on him, not only because he has been hit, but also because he is old.
.Everyone thought that Figel died every few years, so they looked down upon him.
"Father, do we really want to help them?"
After Andre Figel sent Mascardi away, he asked Figel doubtfully. Now most of Figel's business has been handed over to his two sons. One of them is Andre, who is recruiting stars in Brazil.
André Figel, and Marcel Figel, who is currently helping Figel with his business in Europe. However, these two sons are far inferior to Figel in terms of ability, courage, and connections.
Not to mention the ability to develop, it is also very difficult to defend a city.
"Andre, what do you think?"
Although he lacks ability, he is his son after all. Figel hopes to test his son and also wants his son to learn.
"this……"
When Andre was asked by Figel, he was a little at a loss. Looking at Figel's expectant eyes, Andre said hesitantly: "This bastard Riester is really hateful. If it weren't for him, the current South American football world would be
Absolutely not the case. If we continue, we may really be cannibalized by Lister. Lister does not seem to have drastic measures, but he is more dangerous than other agents."
"Then we should fight back?"
"But..." Andre heard that Figel was about to fight back, and hesitated again. After thinking about it, he said: "But Mascardi's plan is a bit unreliable. He hopes that once List is frustrated, he will instigate peace.
The South American agents who cooperated with List have cooperated with us again. But those South American agents are definitely more afraid of us than of List."
South American agents can still make a profit by cooperating with Lister. If they cooperate with local South American agents such as Figel, Mascardi, and Ribeiro, they will not even have any bones in the end. Lister is at most cooperative, and
South American broker predators are gobbling up.
Figel was quite satisfied after hearing his son's analysis, so he smiled and said: "Then shall we help Mascardi or Riester?"
"this……"
Feige sighed. His son actually hated everything he saw, and he could grasp the stakes in all aspects. Unfortunately, the only problem was that he was hesitant and didn't know how to make a decision. Looking at his son, Feige
Gers thought of Ribeiro.
Ribeiro is really slippery and very smart. It was not that Figel didn't want to destroy him back then, but he didn't give Figel any excuse to do anything. This year, with the help of Figel
The opportunity of semi-retirement kept devouring Figel's strength. He had always been cautious, but he didn't expect that after his strength expanded, his ambitions began to expand. If Ribeiro develops cautiously now and cooperates with Riester and the others, maybe he can really
He can replace Figel and become the new generation overlord of Brazil. Unfortunately, his strength has grown and he has begun to have ambitions that he shouldn't have. Haha, I don't know whether to live or die.
"Call Marcel and help me contact Sandro."
"Father……"
"You also come with me. It seems that everyone thinks that I am old and can control me. Haha."
Ribeiro, Ribeiro. On the one hand, Figel despises Mascardi, and on the other he is angry with Ribeiro's attitude. Because in Figel's view, Mascardi must have gained Ribeiro when he came to woo him.
Ribeiro agreed. Now Ribeiro should be on guard to prevent himself from re-emerging. But now he agreed. It is obvious that he thinks that he is old and will not have an impact on his status.
Getting old is what Figel hates the most. Now Figel is definitely comparable to Riester in terms of net worth. Figel has accumulated more than 30 years of assets, and even he, who has so many assets, doesn’t even know it. Figel
Even if they are retired now, the family is a master in Brazil and can live a luxurious life.
But this is not his pursuit. From being the world's number one agent to being underestimated now, Figel feels very aggrieved. If he doesn't give them any color, these people will treat him as a fool.
"Then this way..."
"Andre, I brought you to Europe this time to tell you something. In the brokerage industry, no one is clean. And there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies. As long as it is good for you
, can do anything. Come with me this time to have a good taste."
