Chapter 30 The Broker

After so many days, Li Yuxin really forgot about this matter, and only remembered it after Yangyang mentioned it.Contract, it seems that I need an agent, but who is suitable?Actually Jerome.Anderson already looked for his parents
"At Arsenal I was the manager."

Put it a few years ago.Wenger is really not qualified to be so confident.The Arsenal boss at the time was Jerome.This is true of Anderson's players, from Adams, the group of Graham-era bigwigs, to Henry, Bergkamp, ​​Vieira and other rising leaders.in Jerome.When Anderson was at his most arrogant, Arsenal's main players were basically his players.

When Wenger first joined Arsenal.It was Jerome.Anderson at his most arrogant.Even at the beginning of the 21st century, Jerome.Anderson is still one of the overlords behind the scenes at Arsenal.Because of David.Dunne's support, so Jerome in the transfer market.Anderson is too powerful.

If Manchester United Ferguson wanted a certain player, who would dare to obstruct the negotiators.But at Arsenal Arsene Wenger wanted a player, Jerome.Anderson dared to pluck the goose, and even the players Wenger wanted would be robbed by him.Instead of being Jerome.The player Anderson robbed, even if that person was the player Wenger wanted, Jerome.Anderson also has a way of messing up this transfer.

In addition to being arrogant in the transfer market, Jerome.Anderson was more assertive in other ways.That's the player who came to Arsenal, Jerome.Anderson has dug into his own banner.This is a very bad habit, because of Jerome.Anderson went too far.Like Henry's agent, Bergkamp's agent, including Vieira's agent, they are also well-known in European football.But all were Jerome.Anderson kicked out and took the players into his hands.

This is something to smear the club.After all, which agent is willing to send his players to Arsenal and finally become someone else's players, that is not a wedding dress for others.Therefore, since the incidents of Bergkamp, ​​Henry, and Vieira came out, it is not so easy for Arsenal to buy good players.After all, which broker predators do this kind of loss-making business.

This kind of thing makes Arsenal have many problems in the transfer market.Just like Cristiano.Ronaldo, the transfer to Arsenal has not been successful in history, except for the high bid from Manchester United and the help of Queiroz.There was also Mendes who was worried about Jerome back then.Anderson, the rogue agent, has connections.

At that time, Wenger had just arrived at Arsenal and was questioned by Arsenal fans and English football, so he had no confidence in himself.Plus look at David.For the sake of the club's stability, Dunn didn't dare to object and couldn't talk to Jerome.Anderson hit directly.But it is different now, Wenger has enough achievements, and Arsenal has enough inside to compete with Jerome.Anderson's strength.Wenger is now 100% supported by the club's board of directors, even David.Dunn is currently unable to shake Wenger's position in Arsenal.Therefore, Wenger does not want Arsenal's transfer to continue to be disturbed.Wenger is ready to take over the transfer rights.

Judging by Wenger's attitude, Li Yuxin knew that Wenger now wants to get back his rights in the transfer market.As long as Wenger makes a move, considering Wenger's status in Arsenal today, even the top management of Arsenal can't say no.Jerome.Anderson has been arrogant at Arsenal for so long.Not only did he offend many broker predators, but even Arsenal's head coach Arsene Wenger was angry.This is a good opportunity for other agents to enter Arsenal and slowly squeeze Jerome away.Anderson.

Wenger and Ferguson are both dictators, but Wenger's image is better, so people can't think about it.In fact, Wenger is very stubborn and doesn't like anyone interfering in his work.Now that he has enough grades, he doesn't want David.Dunn, Jerome.Anderson let no one judge his work.

Wenger has always been dissatisfied with Jerome.Anderson is assertive at Arsenal.Wenger and David.Dunn's relationship is very good, and they are still neighbors, so they usually communicate frequently.Wenger is not a saint, and he also knows the unspoken rules of football.David.Dunn used Jerome.Anderson is making money in a disguised form, and Wenger will not be jealous about this.

But Jerome.Anderson was too domineering at Arsenal, especially in the transfer market, which even affected Wenger's steps to transform the team.This made Wenger very dissatisfied, so Wenger hoped that Arsenal would enter more agents to enter Arsenal, and then press Jerome.Anderson's arrogance.

And historically, Jerome wasn't announced until Song's departure.Anderson's reign at Arsenal is over, he can't, then Ashley.Cole's agent Jonathan.Barnett, the agent who transferred Bell from Tottenham to Real Madrid ten years later.Barnett is famous now, but not as famous as when he owned Bell later.Although there are players like Crouch and Dyer under his hands, they are not as good as the current Ashley.Cole.Although the strength is weak, this buddy is definitely not to be underestimated.Ashley.Cole defected to Arsenal, except for Barnett and Ashley.Cole is greedy for Chelsea's money, and there are Barnett and Jerome.Anderson is conflicted.

At first David.Dunn promised Ashley.Cole and Barnett are willing to give Ashley when the contract is renewed.Cole's £5-a-week salary.But when it was time to renew the contract, David.Dunn categorically denied this matter, and could only give 5 pounds at most.Not only that, but also the promise was not fulfilled in the commission.

Barnett is a money fanatic and a famous vampire agent in English football.You are not satisfied even if you give him more, let alone not fulfilling your promise, so Barnett is furious.Henry and Vieira also renewed their contracts at the same time, and they both enjoyed the highest salary at Arsenal at the time, and their weekly salary exceeded [-] pounds.People Jerome.Anderson has plucked every transfer at Arsenal, and he can get enough commissions every time he renews his contract.How could this make Barnett satisfied, and his psychology was very unbalanced.Barnett thinks David.Dunn because of Jerome.Anderson used his personal relationship to suppress himself, so he and David.Dunn had a complete falling out.In addition, Zahavi and Barnett used to be business partners, so Barnett and Zahavi cooperated with each other to create the later "Colmen" incident.

Find him and wait to fight Wenger, no, no, what should we do?
Just as Li Yuxin was thinking about this question.

A luxury hotel in London, Jorge.Mendes stretched comfortably. He came here to discuss matters with Mourinho on vacation. The winter transfer market is about to open. He only has two days off. He will start working tomorrow. Mendes said to himself, his mind is like a computer, sorting out the information of the players in his hand.

This is Jorge.Mr. Mendes is not an ordinary person. He has now become the most powerful agent in football. Since 2004, he has controlled the European football transfer market. His stars include Cristiano Ronaldo, Deco, Pepe, Mourinho and so on.

In the summer of 2004, with the help of the Portuguese Porto team to win the European Champions Cup, he sent several players and Mourinho to Chelsea. While returning the largest income for Porto in history, he himself also completed The career broke out for the first time, and since then, Mendes has become the most powerful agent in Europe.

However, when it comes to Mendes himself, his experience is indeed legendary.Mendes' father is a government official and his mother is a housewife. Mendes was a player in his youth and played at the left winger position (maybe this is why he prefers Cristiano Ronaldo), but he is on the court His talent is far inferior to that of Cristiano Ronaldo, and playing for a C-level club most of the time speaks for itself.

But when he was still a player, Mendes has already shown his business acumen. He once contracted the right to publish advertisements on the outer wall of the stadium. He also opened a football video rental store. In fact, Mendes’s current giant enterprise Its start is due to the original video store.

"The rental and sales of football videos have allowed me to know the information of players all over the world, and also let me understand the meaning of portrait rights." When Mendes was interviewed by the media, he once recalled, "The video store not long ago I just sold it and made tens of thousands of euros."

On the wall of Mendes' office, there are all kinds of jerseys, including those of Cristiano Ronaldo, Pepe and Mourinho, and even Barcelona players Deco and Marcos.Looking at the jerseys of these football superstars, the agent will feel a sense of accomplishment.

"Mendez is a very shrewd businessman and a workaholic." Barcelona President Laporta praised him.

The general manager of Atletico Madrid, Xiao Hill, also said: "He is not the kind of agent who sells a player and doesn't care about it anymore. What he cares about most is not the commission, but the players, the agent and the two clubs. The players he recommends are very good. Some players are unknown at the beginning, but as long as they are recommended by him, they are trustworthy. It is very important to maintain a good relationship with an agent like him who has rich resources.”

We have said so much, just to express a meaning, this is a big man, a big man in football circles.

Mendes is leaving London, he just had a phone call with Barcelona President Laporta, he will negotiate with Barcelona on the renewal of his player Deco.

Barcelona is very satisfied with Deco's performance since he transferred to Barcelona this season, and Deco also likes the atmosphere of Barcelona. Renewing the contract is a common goal. However, there is a big gap between the two sides in terms of salary.Deco hopes that his salary can be increased by 100 million euros to enter the part of Barcelona's leading players, at the same level as Puyol and Eto'o.

Mendes lay on the sofa, smoking a cigar comfortably. For him, this kind of negotiation is exactly what he is good at. He believes that with his own ability, he will be able to help his players get a satisfactory new contract.

At this point, the TV is turned on.What is being broadcast is the highlight clip of Arsenal's previous games on Sky TV.

As long as it is a football game, it can attract Mendes' attention. This is due to nature, or this can also be considered as one of the necessary conditions for the success of an excellent agent.

What is being played is the second half of the match between Arsenal and Chelsea in the first two rounds of the 2005/2006 Premier League season.This half of the game was also called "Lee Woo-shin's 45 minutes" by the TV station.

After just watching for a while, Mendez couldn't take his eyes off the TV.

The young man in the Arsenal Ninety jersey was like a magnet, attracting his attention.

high speed.

This is Mendes' first impression of Li Yuxin.

He didn't know when it started, but he had already taken out a black leather notebook that he carried with him, and wrote the word 'fast' on it.

On TV, Li Yuxin received a pass from Hleb, and directly took out a beautiful volley with his right foot from outside the penalty area. There was almost a flash of white light, and he saw the ball hit the net high.

"WOWOWOWWO——" Mendes stood up suddenly, and he applauded the goal, "COOL!"

Wonderful long shot!
He said in his heart, and then he lowered his head and wrote the word 'good at long-range shooting' on the black leather notebook, but after thinking about it, he added a question mark after it, which was different from Zhang Yang's fast speed. Shooting ability cannot be judged by a game or a goal, which is a bit narrow.

However, the young man who scored the goal has indeed aroused his interest.

※※※※※※※※※※

A yellow-skinned, black-haired player.The position on the field is forward.

Mendes touched his chin and thought about it. He knew that this player had mentioned his talent because of Jose.

'plum',
In Mendez's notebook, there was another remark of 'the ability to grab points is good'.After thinking about it, I added a big exclamation mark after 'very fast'.

Watching the French young man who was celebrating wildly on TV, Mendes, a famous agent in European football, was a little excited. He was really interested in this young man now.I just don't know if this young man has an agent.Presumably there should be, how could such an outstanding young man not have an agent.

※※※※※※※※※※

"Beautiful!" Mendes applauded.

"Three games, four goals and three assists..." Rao is well-informed, and Mendes, whose employer includes superstars like Deco and Cristiano Ronaldo, couldn't help being excited.

I need all the information about this Zhang, his development history, his basic data, his characteristics, all his game videos, and his performance data.Mendes immediately made a decision in his heart. Anyway, since this young man can make his eyes shine, then there is no reason to give up.

He wanted to learn more about Li Yuxin.

As an excellent agent, the most taboo is to judge a person only through one game, let alone draw conclusions in advance.

Without waiting until the next day, that night, Mendes, who was eager to hunt talent, turned on his laptop, entered the keywords 'Lee' and Arsenal's No. 90, and pressed ENTER.

Then, the famous international football agent was surrounded by overwhelming news and comments.

He thought that this young man should be relatively famous in the Premier League, but he didn't expect Li Yuxin to be so famous. Sports media, entertainment media, and comprehensive media almost all reported about this young man.

"Let this storm come more violently." Mendes was also excited in his heart. He was sure that this young man must not have been hyped and packaged. Under such circumstances, he was able to attract such attention. This shows two points. The first is that this young man is really capable, and the second is that there is something about this young man that can attract the attention of the media.

For example, character.

He remembered that the commentator on TV just now said that Li Yuxin had threatened to beat Chelsea before the game... Tsk tsk, Mendes gasped, what an arrogant kid!

However, I like it.

In today's football, it is not a world of honest people. Talented and capable people may be able to succeed on the court, but there are still some things off the court.Among Mendes' employers, there has never been a shortage of such personalities who make the media flock to them, such as Mourinho, such as Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mendes is very fond of players or coaches with this personality.

He once said a word to Cristiano Ronaldo, "As long as you play well on the court, don't worry about other things, leave it to me."

Now, the first thing Mendes needs to determine is whether Li Yuxin currently has an agent, whether it is Jerome or Anderson.

An agent is different from a head coach. Before buying a player, he needs to observe a player for half a season. The agent tests his vision even more. As long as he thinks a player is good, he must quickly win it. Do you think you are the only agent? People, if you are not careful, you will be preempted by others.
