The next day, Crespo, who had just finished breakfast, received a call from Mendes: "Mr. Crespo, this is Diogo Jota's agent Mendes. Are you available to answer the phone now?"
Crespo's heart moved, and he immediately had a hunch that the deal had turned around!
So he immediately said: "It's convenient. May I ask what you want to talk to me about?"
He still maintained enough respect and vigilance for this top agent with power in Europe.
Mendes said: "I wonder if you have left Wolverhampton now?"
Crespo said: "No, I was planning to leave today."
Mendes smiled and said: "That's great, I wonder if you have time to talk to me about Jota's transfer?"
Crespo said: "I have time this morning. Where should we meet?"
Mendes said: "I'll go to your hotel to find you."
After Crespo reported the location of the hotel, Mendes hung up the phone.
More than half an hour later, Mendes appeared in the hotel lobby.
Crespo ordered coffee in the hotel cafe and sat opposite Mendes with Mateo.
Mendes looked at Mateo and couldn't help laughing: "Mateo, I wonder if I am lucky enough to be your agent."
He knew that Mateo didn't have an agent.
Mateo couldn't help laughing. Mendes really didn't miss any opportunity and was still thinking about attracting customers.
But he wouldn't let Mendes be his agent.
After all, he is now working for his father, and it's all his own business.
And if he hired Mendes, he would have to give him a commission, which is not worth it.
So he laughed: "Mr. Mendes, I guess I don't need an agent..."
Mendes also laughed. He was chatting with Mateo in a joking manner, so he wouldn't be disappointed.
After such a little joke, the atmosphere between the three people was much more relaxed.
Crespo took the initiative to start the topic: "Mr. Mendes, I heard that you want to talk to us about Jota's transfer?"
Mendes said: "Yes, I want to facilitate this transfer as an intermediary."
Crespo said: "Then do you want Jota to transfer to Parma?"
Mendes smiled: "Yes. I think Parma's future achievements will be better than Wolves, and Jota will have a broader sky in Parma."
Mateo's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Mendes to be so optimistic about Parma.
This made him admire Mendes' vision.
Of course, if his vision was not good, how could he become the agent of so many outstanding players?
Crespo said: "Thank you Mr. Mendes for your optimism about Parma. But the gap between us and Wolves is financial, which is probably a natural obstacle."
Mendes said: "I came here to eliminate this obstacle."
He cleared his throat and said slowly: "I heard from Mr. Shi that you can offer 30 million euros, right?"
Crespo nodded: "Yes, but this is also the highest price we can offer."
Indeed, their current transfer budget is only 28 million euros, and this 30 million euro offer was also made by them with gritted teeth.
Even if they can get Jota, they will need to pay part of the transfer fee in installments.
It can be said that if they continue to increase the price, they are encroaching on the future transfer budget.
Mendes smiled: "I have a compromise plan."
Crespo said: "I would like to hear more details."
Mendes said: "I talked to Mr. Shi yesterday. They are willing to lower the offer a little bit, but you also need to raise it a little bit. Of course, this increase in the offer does not mean that you have to take out real money immediately, but use some terms to make up for the difference in the transfer fee."
Mateo couldn't help but look up at Mendes.
Mendes felt his gaze and smiled: "We can set some terms. For example, during Jota's time, Parma will pay Wolves 1 million euros as long as they advance to the knockout stage of the Champions League. For each knockout round they win, they will pay Wolves another 1 million euros."
Crespo immediately objected: "In this case, we are likely to pay an unimaginable cost. This clause is an unequal treaty."
Mendes smiled: "It seems that Mr. Crespo has great confidence in Parma and believes that you can advance to the knockout stage many times and go to deeper rounds."
Crespo nodded: "Of course, I am very confident in Parma."
Mendes said: "But you have to know that every time you advance to a round, you will receive a bonus of tens of millions of euros. In comparison, this one million eurosIt's nothing."
Crespo and Mateo exchanged glances.
Matteo said, "This clause must have an upper limit. We can pay Wolves 3 million euros at most for this clause."
Mendes smiled and said, "Okay."
He paused and said, "But Wolves actually have doubts about whether you can qualify for the Champions League knockout stage, so they also asked to add other clauses."
Matteo frowned, "What clause?"
Mendes said, "If you can still qualify for the Champions League next season, you need to pay them 1 million euros."
Matteo said, "If the basic transfer fee is 30 million euros, then if all these clauses are fulfilled, we will have to pay 34 million euros."
Mendes nodded, "But if all these clauses are fulfilled, wouldn't it be a blessing for you Parma? "
Mateo glanced at him and suddenly laughed.
Indeed, if all these terms are fulfilled, the economic benefits obtained by Parma will be at least 40 to 50 million euros, so the 4 million euros are really nothing.
He turned around and discussed with Crespo, and the two finally nodded.
But Crespo said again: "Since you have proposed so many terms, we also need to make a request. "
Mendes said: "Tell me."
Crespo said: "Our 30 million euro transfer fee needs to be paid in installments. We can pay 20 million euros as a down payment, and the remaining 10 million euros will be paid in two years. "
Mendes was very straightforward: "That's no problem. I can agree to this condition on behalf of Mr. Shi. ”
In this way, several people finally reached a preliminary consensus.
The basic transfer fee is 30 million euros, of which 20 million euros is a down payment, and the remaining 10 million euros will be paid in two years.
There are also additional clauses of up to 4 million euros, which will be determined based on Parma's next performance.
An additional 1 million euros will be required to advance to the Champions League next year. In addition, during Jota's service, Parma will need to pay 1 million euros to Wolves for each knockout round they advance to, with a maximum of 3 million euros.
In other words, Jota's final transfer fee is capped at 34 million euros!
It has to be said that Mendes has the means, and in the end he negotiated a result that satisfied both parties and exceeded expectations!
