Football giants

Chapter 28 It's Crazy!
"Master Huan, after meeting you yesterday, I immediately contacted my assistant in France."

Raiola on the other side of the phone began to introduce his progress.

Yang Huan curled his lips when he heard that, this guy is too good at talking, and he is also an assistant, probably a partner.

The football agent industry is a big net, and each agent is one of the meshes in the big net, intersecting with each other. For example, Mendes, who used to be the partner of Brazilian super agent Figel in Portugal. Later, Figel declined, and Mendes took the opportunity to grow bigger.

But these are not important, what Yang Huan wants is the result, not the process.

"My assistant told me that Moroccan central defender Madehi Benatia, who plays for Clermont-Ferrand in the French second league, has agreed to switch to Southampton. Although he is a Moroccan player, he has French nationality."

Yang Huan hummed. If he remembered correctly, this player should have joined Serie A in his previous life. Later, he shined in Rome. His strength is still very good. Although he is not a superstar, he is still very good.

"However, Master Huan, he is a free transfer, so I'm afraid the salary..."

"The salary is easy to handle. I will arrange people from the club to negotiate, and you will assist."

"Understood!" Raiola knew that the deal was a success.

He just makes a phone call, but he can get a commission from it, at least six figures.

"My assistant also contacted the Ligue [-] Lens club. Raphael Varane is a young player that Lens values ​​very much. They attach great importance to it, and the player himself is still studying, so..."

Yang Huan frowned when he heard this, "You mean, they refused?"

"No no no, no rejection!" Raiola hurriedly argued, "Lance asked for 100 million euros in youth training compensation, and at the same time, Southampton will sell Varane 20.00% of the proceeds in the future. As for the players, the British education is better, so I think that as long as the players are connected to the school, the problem is not big."

"Youth training compensation is okay, and 100 million euros is fine, but you tell Lens about the income terms of future sales, I refuse, and I don't want any such terms in the future."

Yang Huan likes to do things simply and neatly, and he doesn't like to procrastinate. He hates the terms such as the right to repurchase within a few years, or share the proceeds of future sales.

do i have no moneyWhy accept such terms?Why can't you pay a little more and get rid of these terms?
"Understood, as long as there is no problem with the compensation for the youth training, then other problems are not big." Raiola immediately agreed.

Another commission credited!

The chubby Italian seemed to see the pound sterling.

"In addition, my friends in the Netherlands also contacted Sparta Rotterdam in the Dutch second division. The other party did not set up more obstacles in the transfer of Kevin Strowman, and the player is also full of expectations for joining English football. The other party offered 50 euros."

Yang Huan hummed, "I'll tell the team, you just take care of it."

Strowman is the future captain of the Dutch national team. Van Gaal attaches great importance to an excellent midfielder. Some people even say that the reason why the Netherlands failed to go further in the World Cup in Brazil was because Strowman was seriously injured and missed the World Cup.

For such a midfielder with both offensive and defensive capabilities, 50 euros is a bargain for Yang Huan!
"Is there any more?" Yang Huan was not satisfied yet.

Raiola is indeed very capable, and the price is very honest. It can be seen that he really wants to have a good relationship with Yang Huan this time.

Being able to handle Benatia, Varane, and Strowman overnight, Raiola's interpersonal relationship and network, as well as his ability to handle things, are indeed quite good. No wonder he has been able to thrive in European football in recent years.

"Yes, actually, I also contacted Real Madrid. Carvajal on the list is currently playing for Real Madrid's youth team. Real Madrid doesn't attach much importance to this player. I believe it will not be very difficult, but Real Madrid has not responded to me yet."

"In addition, I called Nehringer, head of the sports department of Bayern Munich. For the Austrian teenager David Alaba, Bayern Munich does not have a place for him, but they are very optimistic about this teenager. They are more inclined to rent out or add buy-back clauses."

"What do you mean?" Yang Huan felt a headache, this kind of clause again.

"Bayern Munich is willing to sell David Alaba on loan or at a price of 200 million euros, but there must be a clause in the contract. Within three years, Bayern Munich can buy back this player at a price of 300 million euros."

David Alaba, who is only young, is already an Austrian international. He has played once in the first team of Bayern Munich, and he has not performed much in the Champions League.

In recent years, Bayern Munich has been very good at using this kind of loan method to let other teams train players for them, such as Lahm, Toni Kroos, and Dortmund's central defender Hummels, but the latter was directly bought out after joining Dortmund.

"Repurchase?" Yang Huan was a little funny. If he wanted to sell it, he would simply order it. If he didn't sell it, he would find someone else.

"You tell Bayern Munich, 300 million euros, sell it if you want it, and pull it down if you don't sell it, I don't care!"

Raiola smiled wryly on the phone, how can he be angry when doing business?
So he decided that Yang Huan's words must not be conveyed according to the original words. He had to find a way to convince Bayern Munich's top management. Fortunately, this team is different from other teams. They attach great importance to commercial benefits.

David Alaba's price mentioned 300 million euros, almost.

"By the way, Mino, is Manchester United ready?" Yang Huan became concerned about Pogba and Lavelle Morrison.

Needless to say, the player Pogba, a top talent, is still waiting for an opportunity in Manchester United's youth training camp.

As for Ravel Morrison, this is a top talent who is considered to be comparable to England's super genius Gascoigne. He and Pogba are currently the most talented future rookies in Manchester United's youth academy.

"I'm trying to figure it out, please give me a little more time."

Yang Huan laughed, "I'm not in a hurry, take your time, I'll wait for your good news."

"clear."

…………

…………

When Yang Huan was talking to Raiola on the phone, the entire British media field was already in chaos.

The name Charlene Lahiri is on the desks of editor-in-chiefs of every newspaper in the UK.

Also appearing is one of her scoops.

The headline on the front page of Southern Echo today is a photo taken from the outside of the car through the window. The first one is Yang Huan, and the person sitting inside is Marcelo Bielsa!
The Argentine lunatic who just shined in the World Cup is going to coach Southampton?
How is this possible?
Almost everyone didn't believe it and thought it was a hype!
But the facts were right in front of him, Bielsa was sitting in Yang Huan's car, and the evidence was solid.

crazy!

This team of Saints from the southern tip of England is probably going crazy!

All the Saints fans fell into a carnival when they saw this news. Since the team known for its youth training was relegated from the Premier League, the Saints fans have been greeted with darkness, from the Premier League to the British Championship, and then from the British Championship to the League One.

In this darkness, they could not see any ray of hope.

In the past less than ten days, they were shocked by news media reports one after another, but they might still say that it was hype, but what about Bielsa?
The arrival of the Argentine lunatic completely declares that Southampton will usher in a good time to flex its muscles!

Yang Huan used a real world famous coach to tell all Saints fans and England fans that Southampton will rise to become an emerging force in English football in the shortest possible time.

The entire British media field went crazy and shocked!
They rushed into Southampton frantically, hoping to interview Yang Huan or Bielsa. They hoped to find out what was going on?What is the reason that made Bielsa willing to coach the League One team.

After Bielsa joined, everyone was relieved of Yang Huan's dismissal of Alan Pardew.

Compared with the majestic Bielsa in the World Cup, Alan Pardew is nothing!

So, when Yang Huan arrived at St. Mary's Stadium in Southampton with Long Wu, dozens of reporters gathered at the scene frantically rushed up and blocked his Bentley in the middle of the road.

"Mr. Yang Huan, I would like to ask you a question, is Bielsa really going to coach Southampton?"

"What made Bielsa willing to give in to Southampton?"

"It is reported that you offered Bielsa the world's top annual salary that surpassed Mourinho's. Is it true?"

"Can you tell me about your specific plan after the introduction of Bielsa?"

The reporters frantically blocked Yang Huan's car, and the microphone knocked on the window glass from time to time, but luckily it was not heavy.

But outside the car, the reporters huddled together, and the whole scene was very chaotic.

The security personnel of St. Mary's Stadium received the notification and immediately rushed out to pull away the surrounding reporters, allowing Yang Huan's car to drive smoothly into the high-rise parking lot of St. Mary's Stadium, while they were blocked outside the parking lot.

Yang Huan walked out of the Bentley under the watchful eyes of all the reporters on the scene and the flashing spotlights, but he didn't go to St. Mary's Stadium immediately, but walked to the group of reporters.

"Mr. Yang Huan, I'm a reporter from The Sun, can I ask you a few questions?"

"I'm a reporter from The Times, can I do an interview for you?"

"I'm from BBC TV. I'd like to invite you to do an interview on our TV program, is that okay?"

Facing the turbulent discussion from reporters and media on the scene, Yang Huan appeared calm because there were security guards standing in front of him.

"Dear reporters and friends from the TV station, thank you very much for your concern for us. I can answer a few topics that everyone cares about." Yang Huan stretched out his hand to signal them to be quiet.

The scene immediately became silent, and someone even held up a recording pen and handed it behind the security guard, trying to get as close to Yang Huan as possible.

"First of all, I am sure to tell everyone that Mr. Marcelo Bielsa will be the head coach of Southampton's team in the new season. All of us firmly believe that under the leadership of Mr. Bielsa, Southampton will usher in a revival. We will return to the Premier League in the shortest possible time and become an indispensable emerging force in English football."

This news was officially confirmed by Yang Huan, so many people at the scene were a little surprised.

But it soon calmed down.

After all, it was all reported in the newspapers.

"Second, we at Southampton, after serious consideration, thanked Alan Pardue for his contribution to Southampton, and apologized with regret, coupled with the dealings of relevant departments, we decided to withdraw the complaint against Alan Pardew and reach an out-of-court settlement."

As soon as Yang Huan finished speaking, the reporters on the scene were in an uproar.

From such a simple sentence, the meaning revealed is very rich.

But read between the lines, Alan? Pardue begging for mercy is sure.

Unexpectedly, this young marshal, who is usually dragged like three to five to eighty thousand, would bow his head and beg for mercy one day!
Many reporters at the scene who usually disliked Alan Pardue felt gloating in their hearts.

Yang Huan was not in a hurry, he had plenty of time, and he continued after the reporters at the scene digested his words.

"The third thing is..."
