Just after watching the Chelsea game, Lister received a call from Mark Roger when he came out. Mark Roger told Lister on the phone that he was at Stamford Bridge and wanted to meet Lister.
"Let's take a look. Villas-Boas is said to be Mourinho's second best coach and the best young coach in European football right now. Of course I have to come and see him."
Although they were words of praise for Boas, they came out of Mark Roger's mouth with complete contempt. It was obvious that Mark Roger didn't care about Boas at all. There was even a sneer in the corner of his mouth.
Mark Roger is in a good mood, because Villas-Boas's performance at Chelsea is getting worse and worse. This is Villas-Boas's fifth defeat in the past two months, and Chelsea's ranking has also plummeted. Seeing Villas-Boas unlucky
, Mark Roger was also very happy.
"You are so."
Liester shook his head. Then he smiled and said: "Tell me, how come you have time to watch Chelsea's game."
"It's not Nikolai's business."
"Anelka?"
"kindness."
Anelka's agents are his two brothers, but Mark Roger has a deep relationship with Anelka. When Anelka came to Arsenal, it was Wenger who relied on his connections in France.
Including the relationship between the coach of Paris Saint-Germain at the time and the French agent Marc Roger. Anelka was able to transfer to Arsenal at a low price, and Mark Roger's contribution was very great. Mark Roger is also logical.
He became a collaborator of Arsenal at that time, and he had a lot to do with the growth of Arsenal's French gang.
Later, Anelka moved to Real Madrid. He relied on Mark Roger to travel between places. Of course, because of this transfer, Mark Roger and Arsenal began to fall out. And he also had a good relationship with Real Madrid, and finally entered the
Among Florentino's advisory team.
"What? Organize his transfer?"
"Yes. I recently met a big investor who was willing to give me an annual salary of seven million euros and let Nikola endorse their products. After the final calculation, the annual income exceeded ten million euros."
With an income of more than 10 million euros, this is the top level in world football. Currently, there are very few people in European football with an annual salary of more than 10 million euros, even if the annual salary before tax exceeds 10 million euros, it is not much. In the Premier League, taxes
There are only a handful of players whose annual salary exceeds 10 million euros.
"China?"
"How do you know."
Mark Roger was very surprised. Although the media has been reporting on Anelka's future recently, no one knows exactly that it is a Chinese club. Because there are too many various news, I did not expect List to suddenly
Said it out.
"Shanghai Shenhua?"
"You are amazing."
Mark Roger opened his mouth. Although he and Shenhua had been talking for a long time, they were all very secret negotiations. Shenhua did not want to announce it directly. Shenhua also wanted some sensational effects. The two sides had just recently reached most of the agreements.
Agreement, I didn’t expect Lister to know about it.
And the important thing is Shanghai Shenhua, which may be a giant in China. But it is nothing in the world of football, and no one in European football knows that there is a club like Shenhua in China. Unexpectedly, Lister said it outright.
"Of course. In terms of understanding of Chinese football in European football, no one is better than me. Mark, nothing can be hidden from me in Chinese football."
After Mark Roger said that Anelka had met a big sponsor, Lister knew who it was, and it was only Shanghai Shenhua. The introduction of Anelka by Shanghai Shenhua in history can be said to have caused a sensation in the entire Chinese football world.
Historically, when Anelka was announced to join Shenhua, there was a huge commotion on the Chinese Internet within one day. On the Sina Weibo hot topic list, "Anelka joins the Chinese Super League" had nearly 1 million messages.
The number of comments on Tencent Weibo reached 67 million. In the Shanghai Hotline Shenhua Channel's poll on "Can Anelka help Shenhua win the championship?" nearly 5,000 fans participated in the vote, and more than 60% of the fans chose "Definitely can"
". It can be seen that Chinese fans are eager for world-class stars.
"Why, we're done talking."
"Yes. We just finished talking about Nikola joining Shenhua Club during the winter transfer."
"Yes, it's a good thing. Chinese football has been very rich in recent years and can pay enough salaries. Recently, I also have players playing in China, and they are currently the top scorers in the Chinese league. He is only 22 years old this year.
, with an annual salary of US$4 million after tax. No one in European football can offer such a high salary."
Lister is talking about Theo who is currently playing at Evergrande. His characteristics are really outstanding in the Chinese League, and his performance after coming to the Chinese Super League was very good. At the end of the 2011 season, Theo scored 21 goals in the Chinese Super League.
He scored a goal and became the top scorer in the Chinese Super League. In the FA Cup, he scored four goals, totaling 25 goals in a season.
Evergrande is not stingy either. As long as you perform well, you will be given adequate salary. Theo’s salary has gone from a salary of just two million US dollars at the beginning to an annual salary of US$4 million after tax now. Of course, this salary was just achieved by Lister.
Negotiated with Evergrande. Among 22-year-olds of the same age, there are not many people whose salary exceeds Theo. Even those talented players in wealthy clubs do not have such annual salary. It can be seen that the current salary of the Chinese League
The level of generosity.
Moreover, the current economic development in China is too fast. When Theo and others go to China to play football, they can not only get high salaries. People like Theo have become the darlings of Guangzhou fans in a short period of time. It is easy to get local companies in Guangzhou.
She has been favored and received many commercial endorsements and advertisements.
"Rister, I'm looking for you because Shenhua wants to find you."
"What, they like my players?"
"yes."
Mark Roger came here this time for the purpose of matchmaking. He looked at Riester and said: "Didier, Didier's situation at Chelsea is not good recently. Shenhua hopes to introduce Didier."
"Shenhua? Didier."
List laughed. Zhu Jun has a big appetite and wants to introduce Drogba and Anelka one after another. Speaking of Zhu Jun, he has good abilities, but after introducing Drogba and Anelka in history,
, the wage arrears scandal finally became a rage. Drogba even left directly because he had not received his salary for three months, and finally his contract was automatically terminated.
In the end, when facing the investigation, Zhu Jun said something ridiculous. He even said to the media: "We do not owe wages. We just failed to pay wages on time. It is just a late payment."
The reputation of Chinese football at that time was discredited in the world. List was planning to contact the Chinese League and let Drogba go to the Chinese League to make money, but Shanghai Shenhua was excluded.
So he smiled and said: "How much is Shenhua willing to pay? I asked Didier to go to China, of course, to get the best salary. The person you are talking to is Zhu Jun, he is a game player, and he is not from Shenhua
The major shareholder, I don’t trust him.”
"They said the salary will not be low."
"I know. But Mark and Didier mean something different to me. If I let him go to China to play football, it will definitely not just be for the sake of playing football. Zhu Jun, a game maker, cannot give me what I need."
Treating Drogba as just a player is simply a waste of Drogba's special status in Côte d'Ivoire. Lister wants to build Drogba into a brand, a brand that represents Côte d'Ivoire, making him one of the two most important players in China and Côte d'Ivoire.
A bridge of friendship between countries. To complete this, Lister needs someone other than Zhu Jun.
Recently, Riester has begun to have contact with political figures in Côte d'Ivoire. Côte d'Ivoire belongs to the traditional French sphere of influence. In the past two years, France had a civil war between the two sides due to the presidential election. France also sent troops to help the current President of Côte d'Ivoire, Ouattara.
Defeated another candidate. But this civil war had a great impact on Côte d'Ivoire.
Ouattara has been having a headache recently. Although France has provided emergency special aid of 400 million euros, for Côte d'Ivoire, which has a population of 24 million, this amount of money can at most restore the normal work of the government. For the development of Côte d'Ivoire,
It's completely a drop in the bucket.
List wants to regard Drogba as a symbol of friendship between the two countries, and the political circles in Cote d'Ivoire greatly agree. Even in the office of President Ouattara of Cote d'Ivoire, someone came to contact List. Now Cote d'Ivoire needs money and international cooperation.
Funds. Currently, the only country that can support Cote d'Ivoire on a large scale is China. Therefore, they hope to get help from China and strengthen their relationship with China. Riester's idea of using football to win relationships won their favor. They are willing to let Drogba
Become the iconic player of Côte d'Ivoire.
"Then you are..."
"I want to cooperate with the Chinese government. Find a club supported by the government. Shanghai Shenhua is not qualified."
"hehe."
Mark Roger shook his head, not knowing what to say. Speaking of which, when Mark Roger was rampant in French and English football, List was still a rural agent in the Czech Republic. Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, List would
The business he is doing is already beyond his reach.
After just talking with Shenhua, Mark Roger is still very proud. After all, after Mark Roger talks with Shenhua this time, Anelka's after-tax salary can even enter the top five in world football. It can make professional players
At the end of his career, Anelka reached such a high salary, how could Mark Roger be dissatisfied?
But looking at List in front of him, he could only sigh. Mark Roger already understood what List meant. What List wants is not just a simple player transaction, List wants far more than ordinary players.
Player transfer. This is to participate in the game and use players to connect the relationship between the two countries.
"Lister, I understand what you mean."
"You helped me reject Shenhua. Just help me tell them that I haven't thought about Didier's future yet."
