Pini Zahavi shook his head and said: "Rister, I am talking to you very seriously now. Otherwise, how would I have the time to come to the Czech Republic now?"
"You want my players to go to cold Russia? Far away from the mainstream leagues? No, no, absolutely not."
List shook his head. Speaking of which, many of List's Czech players are already playing in the Russian league. Because in recent times, the owners of the Russian League have invested heavily and the players' salaries are also very good. Regardless of the low level of the Russian League,
They are ranked 11th in Europe, much lower than the Czech Republic. But their salary is not low, even a little higher than the Czech league.
Many Czech players will go to Russia to seek gold, and it is not too difficult for Czech players to adapt to the Russian league's style of play. But the players Riester sent to Russia are basically ordinary players. Even if they perform no better
Well, it is impossible to become a world-class player. It is also a good idea to earn some rubles in Russia while you are young.
If someone among them performs well in the Russian league, then Riester will also give them a chance. They will leave the Russian league and enter the five major European leagues. But basically those who go to the Russian league are players who have been semi-abandoned by Riester.
, that is, players with limited future development.
Riester would never let his truly talented players go to the Russian league. Just like Nesid, Kozak and others when they became famous in Czech football, it was not that no Russian clubs came to poach players. But Riester refused them all.
.Because they are the future of Czech football. Their future should be in the five major European leagues and among the top European teams. Going to Russia is completely delaying yourself.
List would rather let Neshid and Kozak go to small and medium-sized clubs in Europe to receive training than let them go to Russia, which is far away from the mainstream European leagues. The cold Russia can easily kill the aura of these geniuses.
"Liester, there are not just one or two Czech players playing in the Russian league."
"But Givanildo is different from them."
Riester shook his head firmly. Then he said: "Pini, Givanildo was brought to the Czech Republic by me after all the hard work in Brazil. And it took me a lot of effort to make him a member of the Czech national team."
player. His future should be in a wealthy and powerful team. I have already received invitations from many powerful European teams. He is already 24 years old. If he delays going to the Russian League for a few more years, it will be difficult for him to have the opportunity to play for a wealthy team in the future.
It’s the ball.”
Pini Zahavi came here as a lobbyist. It is not enough for the Russian oligarchs to dominate Chelsea. They also want to introduce outstanding players to their Russian league. Their appetite is really getting bigger and bigger.
Can persuade an agent of Pini Zahavi's level to come and act as a lobbyist. The target person is not just any ordinary person, it is Hulk of Sparta Prague. Hulk has performed well in the Czech League and the Champions League this season.
, many strong European teams have contacted Riester. They all hope to introduce Hulk. Therefore, Pini Zahavi personally took action. This time he came on behalf of the St. Petersburg Zenit club.
"Liester. The other party is willing to pay 40 million euros to bring in Hulk."
"They have money. We in Sparta Prague are not short of money either."
I have also heard about Zenit Club Riester. Behind Zenit is the largest company in Russia, Gazprom. It is also the largest natural gas mining company in the world and has almost a monopoly on Eastern and Central European countries.
It also guarantees 25% of Russia's national budget and controls 65% of Russia's natural gas reserves and 20% of the world's natural gas reserves. This is a typical club supported by state capital.
They are very rich, not ordinary rich. Lister also believes this. But Sparta Prague is not short of money. In recent years, the Cherny family, by virtue of controlling Sparta Prague, has seen a surge in family assets.
When Riester first became an agent, the combined assets of the Cherny family did not amount to tens of millions of euros.
But with the development over the years, the Czerny family has amassed huge assets of more than 100 million euros by virtue of controlling the shares of Sparta Prague. Moreover, the total assets of Sparta Prague were less than 10 million euros from that year.
A small club with a Euro value of over 60 million Euros has now become a club.
Not to mention other things, Sparta Prague’s current annual commercial sponsorship has exceeded 30 million euros. As a Czech club, this has surprised the entire European football world. Currently, Sparta Prague’s most
What is not lacking is money. And even if it is sold to other clubs, nearly 30 million euros in transfer fees can be recovered.
"Rister and Zenit are willing to give Hulk an annual salary of five million pounds after tax."
"hehe."
Liester shook his head. Zenit is so damn rich. Both the transfer fee and the annual salary given are very top-notch. Five million pounds after tax is the top salary in the Premier League. Like Yaya.
Toure and his team earn 220,000 pounds a week, and their annual after-tax salary is less than 6 million pounds. Zenit was willing to give Hulk an after-tax annual salary of 5 million pounds.
Since Florentino's superstar policy, there has been a standard line in European football. Although it is not a legal standard, it is a standard that everyone has a tacit understanding of. That is, players at the superstar level in European football should receive after-tax
Six million euros. The superstars in the first phase of Galacticos back then basically met this standard. Stars who exceeded this standard were recognized as superstars in European football.
Even after many years, this is still the case. In the current European football world, there are many people whose salary reaches tens of millions of euros, but that is before tax. Those whose after-tax salary exceeds six million euros are still very rare.
For a star of Hulk's caliber to receive five million pounds after tax, it can only be said to be too crazy.
"Rister, you should know that Zenit is very rich, and there will definitely be opportunities to cooperate with them in the future."
"Pini, let me discuss it with my players. If I can't agree to it, I hope you can understand."
After all, it was Pini Zahavi who came in person. Lister still has to give him enough face and cannot reject him directly. If the Zenit club directly finds Lister, does Lister care who he is? Who cares if you have him?
How much.
"good."
…………
"How much? Five million pounds after tax?"
"yes."
“Is Zenit rich?”
Hulk himself was also surprised, so he swung his big butt and immediately moved closer to Riester, sitting very close to Riester.
"Of course. Zenit's backend is Gazprom. Do you know who the former chairman of this company is? Medvedev. You should know who he is."
Hulk nodded. Medvedev is the one who became the president of Russia two years ago. Although Hulk doesn’t know how powerful Gazprom is, he also knows that Medvedev is the president of Russia. Since it is Medvedev
A company where Vedev has been the chairman must be very powerful.
"That's good. Lister, I'm willing to go to Russia."
Hulk agreed readily, which made List open his mouth. List told him that it was just to respect Hulk and that he had no intention of persuading him to go to Russia. Therefore, seeing that he was so happy to go to Russia,
He said with some disbelief: "Givanildo, there are many clubs interested in you now. Even if you can't go to a wealthy club for a while, there is no problem at all in going to some strong European teams. But Russia is only the third largest team in Europe.
The 11th level league is even lower than the Czech league. Are you sure you want to move to the Russian league?"
"kindness."
Hulk said completely indifferently: "Liester, didn't you say that even if I transfer now, I can only get a salary of four million to five million euros at most? And that's before tax. Then
That means I can’t even get three million euros after tax.”
"But this is not fixed. If you perform well, your salary can be increased."
"But when will the salary reach five million pounds after tax? Now if I go to Russia, it will be five million pounds after tax. Why go to other clubs."
Riester was confused by Hulk. And in the end Riester could only laugh. Hulk seemed like he had never seen money before. He was simply fascinated by money. He is only twenty-four now.
At 20 years old, there is still plenty of time to make money, so why be so anxious.
Therefore, Lister couldn't help but said in the end: "Givanildo, you have to understand one thing. You are now twenty-four years old, which is the age when you should move up. If you go to the Russian League now, you may never have the opportunity in your life.
Opportunity to play for a wealthy club. You may not even have a decent honor in your career."
"I understand. But can a wealthy family give me five million pounds after tax?"
After saying a few words, he returned to the issue of salary. This made Lister really dumbfounded. In this kid's eyes, there is nothing but money. He has been completely fascinated by the five million pounds after tax. Everything else
None of it is in his eyes.
"Givanildo, let me ask you one last question. Have you really decided?"
"kindness."
Hulk is very excited now. He is currently at Sparta Prague. Even including various bonuses, he can earn at most 1.5 million euros a year. If he transfers to Russia, his salary will double instantly.
Four times. An annual salary of five million pounds after tax. Even the top giants in European football would not give it casually. Because they can get five million pounds after tax, which is an annual salary after tax of nearly six million euros.
It is a salary that can only be enjoyed by superstar players in wealthy clubs. Hulk does not know how many years he has struggled to reach that level. Hulk believes more in the money he has received than in the illusory future.
"Okay then. I will definitely get the best contract for you."
In the end, List was very helpless and didn't know what to say. For the sake of Hulk's future, he didn't even give Pini Zahavi the face and rejected him at that time. Unexpectedly, Hulk was willing to do it more than anyone else.
Go to Russia. The charm of money is so great. Hulk looks crazy for the five million pounds after tax.
With Hulk's answer, the answer was simple. List quickly contacted Pini Zahavi, and then also contacted the Zenit club to discuss Hulk's transfer. Since he decided to transfer to Russia, List certainly
It requires more transfer fees and more salary.
Half of Hulk's ownership still belongs to Riester. The higher the price, the higher Riester's income. Zenit wanted to spend 40 million euros to introduce Hulk, but Riester directly said it was 60 million euros.
After long negotiations, the two parties reached an agreement on a price of 52 million euros. Hulk's annual salary is also 5.5 million pounds after tax, and he signed a large five-year contract.
Hulk catapulted into Europe's top salary bracket.
When List finally signed the contract, it felt unreal. Hulk, a player in the Czech league, moved to the Russian league and was worth more than 50 million euros. Anyway, List was extremely happy, Hulk
Erke transferred to Zenit, and List earned more than 30 million euros from the sale of ownership, agent commissions, salary sharing, etc. For such a good thing, List didn't know where to reason, so he could only secretly
