Inter Milan is about to change coaches, Barcelona is about to change coaches, and Real Madrid is about to change presidents. Anyway, several major European clubs are going through big changes this summer. If Lister wants to get a piece of this big change, he needs to be better than others.
You have to be busy. Because the changes in these giant clubs can completely change the current situation in European football. It can also change the balance of power among agents.
If one of these wealthy clubs wants to specifically support an agent, then this agent will immediately become a giant agent in European football. No one can underestimate the power of the wealthy clubs. If they are determined to support an agent,
Agents, even first agents like Lister cannot be underestimated.
Although there is a saying that even wealthy clubs need to have a good relationship with their agents. Just like an agent like List. But once they and List really get into trouble, they are bent on dealing with a predatory agent like List.
Then Lister can only retreat and talk about settling the relationship, just hoping for a win-win situation for everyone. If there is a fight, the manager will be the most seriously injured.
Therefore, Lister must be diligent and not allow these wealthy clubs to exclusively support his agents. Moreover, he must maintain good relations with them, so that he can fundamentally suppress potential agents.
And just when several giant clubs are undergoing huge changes, Manchester City is also about to change. In the first season, Alfahim kept Pierce, but Pierce's coaching ability was limited after all. Although he is a famous player in English football and a top player in the 1980s and 1990s.
He is a left back. But he was trained in English football, and his tactical ability clearly has the English football style.
But the current Manchester City is different. However, with Tevez, Modric and other technical players, it is not suitable for the traditional English style of play. Although with this group of outstanding players, they have reached the ninth place in the Premier League.
, but for Al Fahim, this result is simply unacceptable. He is already preparing to introduce more good players this summer. As for Pierce, he can only leave Manchester City.
Pellegrini has not yet taken office, so he cannot go to Manchester City directly for negotiations. But after all, the two parties have already signed a contract, and it is a certainty that Pellegrini will take over Manchester City next season. Therefore, Pellegrini is very important to Manchester City.
After some understanding, he came up with his plan for Manchester City's transformation for next season. Riester came to Manchester City with this plan today.
"Keep Joe Hart and Sturridge?"
In Pellegrini's plan, he first made an evaluation of Manchester City's youth training. Pellegrini believed that Joe Hart, Richards, and Sturridge are the treasures of Manchester City's youth training. Manchester City should
Leave them all.
Historically, Manchester City was in a period of great turmoil in 2007 and 2008. This was because at this time, former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra came to Manchester City. This person himself had limited funds, so most of the funds he brought did not belong to him.
Moreover, he was still fighting against the opposition forces in Thailand at that time, so he did not have much room to worry about Manchester City. Even at the end of this season, Thaksin was trapped in Thailand and could not come out, and he could not control Manchester City.
In such chaos, Manchester City did not take good care of its youth training. Sturridge finally left for free. But it is different now. After Al Fahim came to Manchester City, Manchester City quickly stabilized. Therefore,
Sturridge did not leave, but instead signed a three-year contract with Manchester City.
Pellegrini believes that Sturridge, including Joe Hart and Richards are all outstanding young talents who should stay at Manchester City and can be regarded as a cornerstone of Manchester City's future.
“Manchester City’s youth training is good.”
Lister just gave a simple answer. In English football, youth training camp players are very important. Even if their strength is insufficient, they are relatively tolerant to their youth training players. What's more, these three people are considered to be Manchester City youth players.
A gem of training, he is considered a good talented player in the current British football world.
Marwood nodded and did not raise any objections. This is not a big deal, just a player from his youth training. Then he continued to look down. The following is Pellegrini's transfer list for next season. But seeing
After this list, Marwood frowned at first.
"This list..."
Marwood looked at the summer transfer list presented by Pellegrini. He could only smile bitterly. Because Marwood could clearly see that the players on this list were almost all List's players. Marwood's first impression was of List.
Too blatant.
Lister really doesn't shy away from suspicion. But Marwood figured it out after a second thought. Alfahim doesn't care about money, nor does he care about who has the power of the Manchester City club. He only cares about one thing, and that is how good Manchester City's results are. As long as
Manchester City's results are outstanding enough to give their Abu Dhabi consortium enough face, so nothing else matters.
The purpose of the Abu Dhabi consortium coming to Manchester City is very simple. That is, there is too much money, and many people in the Middle East watch the Premier League. So they want to buy a prestigious Premier League club. This also represents the face of their consortium.
Although most of the players on this list are List's players, these players are indeed very good. And not just average, as long as they are good enough.
"The lists provided by Brian Manuel are all carefully considered by him."
"kindness."
Pellegrini's list is full of famous players in European football, but neither Marwood nor List has any worries about the transfer fee. Marwood looked at List and smiled bitterly in his heart. To put it bluntly,
Manchester City's sporting director, but Al Fahim trusts Riester more. The transfer power is not entirely in his hands.
Pellegrini will become the head coach of Manchester City next season, and if he introduces so many players from List, he will have no say in Manchester City. This makes Marwood feel a little unhappy. But he has no choice, Lister
He was even able to convince Alfahim to use Pellegrini as the head coach. But Alfahim didn't ask himself as the sports director at all. From this, Marwood can see how much Alfahim trusts Riester.
"Liester, can you guarantee that the players here will not reject our Manchester City?"
But Marwood has been a player, a Nike executive, and now he is the sporting director of Manchester City, so there is no expression on his face. Most of the players on this list should be able to be bought with money, but there is one person who can
It made him a little confused.
"Who are you worried about?"
"Torres."
The most famous among the list Pellegrini brought out is undoubtedly Torres. He has been Atletico Madrid's golden boy since his debut. He is the recognized successor of Raul in Spanish football.
In the past few seasons, he has been the most outstanding forward in La Liga, and has already won two top scorers in La Liga. Currently, there are more than one or two giants who are eyeing him, and all the giants who want to introduce him are lined up. Such a forward can
Should you choose Manchester City? Who do you think Manchester City is?
Although he is the sporting director of Manchester City, Marwood himself does not believe that Manchester City can introduce Torres. Marwood was very surprised to be able to introduce Tevez and Modric last season. What's more, Torres is far away from Tevez and Modric now.
Modric was so good that he couldn't believe it. He even doubted Riester.
After all, for a player of Torres's level, even an agent like Lister cannot force him. If Torres is really annoyed, a player of Torres's level is fully capable of breaking away from Lister. He will be willing to take over Torres when the time comes.
The big brokers are probably able to queue up for several kilometers.
"certainly."
This is not something Riester made on his own. Just as Marwood considered it, when Torres is a star of his level, Riester can't force him. Regarding Torres's choice, Riester can only make suggestions. He can only persuade him.
rather than deciding his future.
Atletico Madrid's results in the past two seasons are very good, but the burden is getting heavier and heavier. The club's debt is increasing day by day, and the annual interest payments are already unaffordable for Atletico Madrid. Xiao Hill is very
Ambition, but no matter how ambitious you are, you cannot ignore reality. After all, Atletico Madrid is not Real Madrid, and he is not Abramovich. It is impossible to be like Real Madrid and Chelsea who are not afraid of hundreds of millions in debt. In the past few years, Atletico Madrid has just not
Signings have stopped, and outstanding players have never been sold. But now Hill knows that Atletico Madrid must make gains and losses if they want to continue to survive.
Hill hopes to sell Torres, who is currently Atletico Madrid's most valuable and highest-paid player. At present, Atletico Madrid has to pay nearly 20 million euros to support Torres every year. First of all, Torres's salary is 8 million euros after tax. This alone
Part of Atletico Madrid needs to spend 15 million euros plus taxes. Coupled with the various goal bonuses and championship bonuses that Torres receives every year, Atletico Madrid's burden is too heavy.
It costs nearly 20 million euros a year to support a player. Only top clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona can do this. And top upstarts like Chelsea and Manchester City can do this. But Atletico Madrid can't do it now, because Atletico Madrid is not that kind.
There are too many funds. Therefore, Hill can only prepare to sell Torres. Anyway, Atletico Madrid still has Aguero.
And Riester has also thought about Torres' future. Currently, only the Premier League has the ability to introduce Torres, because the giants in the Bundesliga and Serie A are now shrinking. Only the top teams in the Premier League can afford Torres's expensive transfer fee and super high salary.
Funds. Now, among the Premier League clubs, only Chelsea and Manchester City can afford the transfer fee for Torres.
The current center forward of Chelsea is Didier Drogba. Drogba has performed well this season. He is currently ranked first in the Premier League scorer list. If Torres goes to Chelsea, it will not be one of his own against his own. And with Drogba here, Torres
It was difficult to compete with him. List would not put his two outstanding forwards in one club, which would be a complete waste of resources. Therefore, after analyzing the pros and cons, List convinced Torres.
Manchester City has good players and money, and if they find an excellent head coach, results will rise in minutes. And Manchester City has money, so they will never underpay their players.
"Bryan, just feel free to negotiate with Atletico Madrid."
"Okay, I understand."
Marwood nodded. If he were not the sports director of Manchester City, but from the perspective of a spectator, this list would indeed bring Manchester City's strength to several levels.
"Liester, let's talk about the Sparta Prague players."
It’s already April 2008, and several big clubs are very busy. At this time, the more stable the clubs are, the better the results will be, and the more turbulent the clubs, the worse the results will be. However, since everything is already in turmoil, these teams have begun to prepare for the next season.
Preparing for the season. The news that Florentino will join Real Madrid is abuzz. There are many rumors that Florentino has begun to contact several superstars. On the Barcelona side, there is news that Guardiola of the B team will become
New head coach.
At this time, upstart Manchester City had already begun to take action. With Pellegrini's list, Manchester City began to contact those clubs. However, most of the players were Leicester's players, so the progress was rapid.
On April 23, 2008, the Manchester City club's official website announced their first transfer of the summer. Of course, because the transfer period had not yet arrived, they only announced that an agreement had been reached.
But after this transfer report came out, the entire English media and even the European media were surprised. In an instant, everyone's eyes came to Manchester City.
"The era of high-priced guards has arrived!"
"Is it the fault of the nouveau riche, or Real Madrid's fault!"
"Manchester City strikes again!"
