Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

The next morning, Paul Noga came to the office building at the Vitalia Park training base.

He heard from a distance that U23 head coach Ricardo Perez and B team head coach Castro seemed to be arguing about something.

Next to me are the staff who are eating melons.

When I walked in and listened, I realized that both of them wanted Martin.

I was hesitant about whom to recommend before, but now I want them all.

Ricardo Perez believes that Martin is still young and not strong enough. Going to the B team is to encourage young people to grow, and he can steadily improve in the U23.

“bancário!!”

Castro has a bad temper and speaks like the quintessence of Portugal: "You fart! Martin, I'm going to make a decision today! Our B team has priority in selecting players!"

"You permission dog! Don't use the club's rules to rob people if you have your own rights!"

Ricardo Perez rolled up his sleeves.

Paul Noga ran over in three steps at a time. He also signaled to his colleagues who were watching the theater to stop eating, and quickly came over to separate the two people who were showing signs of making a move.

I tried my best to persuade the two of them, but to no avail.

"Ling ring ring~"

Just then, his cell phone rang in his shirt pocket.

Looking at the note on the caller ID, he quickly made a silence gesture to Ricardo Perez and Castro: "It's the sports director calling, shut up!"

Ricardo Perez and Castro instinctively shut up, looked at each other in tacit understanding, and listened.

"Hello Director, what are your instructions?"

……

Paul Noga's ears didn't work very well, so he always answered the phone with the speakerphone on.

Ricardo Perez and Castro listened to 90% of the call.

After hanging up the phone and looking at the two people like wilted eggplants, Paul Noga said angrily: "There's no need to argue now. Martin will most likely transfer and leave before the start of the new season!"

"The weather is so nice today~"

To hide his embarrassment, Castro looked outside at the gloomy sky.

Ricardo Perez nodded lightly: "Yes, it is very cool and suitable for outdoor sports. Let's go, let's continue to lead the team for training..."

"it is good!"

The two of them seemed to have forgotten that just a few minutes ago they were quarreling with each other, and now they were putting each other's shoulders and talking to each other.

The melon-eaters were stunned.

And this kind of operation?

When everyone dispersed, Porto youth training director Paul Noga put his hands in his pockets and sighed.

In recent years, the way out for youth training players has basically been to transfer or loan to Portuguese Super League or Portuguese Liga teams. They will then repurchase them after they have performed well, play for two seasons and continue to sell them at high prices.

Ruben Neves is a special case, showing exactly what new head coach Lopetegui needs.

As the director of youth training, he knew that it would be a good choice for Martin to transfer and leave.

The first team has long been 'not doing its job properly', despising the training of youth training players with good roots and focusing on the 'intermediary' business.

In fact, this is a kind of 'sadness' for the Portuguese Super League.

If you want to maintain sufficient competitiveness with Benfica and Sporting CP, it is unrealistic to rely on youth training players to take the lead. Replenishing the strength of the lineup is the best way.

Looking at the world of football, the main players of a wealthy team in a league are basically bought at high prices, and only a few of them are mainly youth training players.

"It's a pity that I didn't get to see Martin grow up in Porto, but... the sky is high and birds can fly, come on!"

Paul Noga looked in the direction of the U19 training ground and sent his most sincere blessings.

……

Wolfsburg, Naples, Sevilla and other well-known European clubs sent faxes to Porto to purchase U19 player Martin.

Antero Enrique, who serves as Porto's sporting director, naturally wanted to ask Paulo Noga, the director of youth training.

He does have a good relationship with his agent, Mendes, but as the saying goes, brothers must settle accounts.

When it comes to interests, nothing should be neglected.

Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.

It is precisely because of this sports director that Porto can become the largest black shop in Europe.

He knew that Mendes had always had a keen eye. The reason why he was able to sign 17-year-old Martin as a player in the agency and handle related matters personally was because of Martin's amazing football talent.

After Antero Enrique learned about Martin's situation, he frowned and felt a little incredible.

What does it mean to be naturalized? When I was in the Dragon Kingdom, I went to a dilapidated Taoist temple to be baptized. After returning to Porto, I started to realize my talent. My performance is getting better and better, and I am planning to recommend him to the U23 or B team.

He is a Westerner and has never believed that the Dragon Kingdom is a sleeping dragon that will eventually wake up.

Today, I heard youth training director Paul Noga mention what really happened, which undoubtedly refreshed his perspective.

But a person's faith cannot collapse easily, especially an adult over forty years old.

After a short period of digestion, he returned to the confident Porto sports director.

Based on current understanding, it can be concluded that Martin has good football talent.

It is a pity that the club did not realize the importance of Martin before and therefore did not sign a professional contract. Otherwise, it could have received a very considerable transfer fee.

It was precisely because of this that Antero Enrique felt a little annoyed.

Youth training compensation is naturally indispensable, but it cannot be compared with the transfer fee.

As a sports director, if he makes high profits for the club, he can get a proportional bonus stipulated in the signed work contract.

Since Martin's agent is Mendes, it is very difficult to complete the signing of a professional contract and then sell it at this time.

After all, Mendes is now a well-known agent in world football, and it is impossible to cheat Martin's next employer for a small profit.

Moreover, it will also ruin the good reputation established over the years.

Therefore, there is no way to open a gap with Mendes, who has been a partner for many years. If you want to maximize benefits, you have to rely on negotiation.

But the final result may not be too clear. FIFA has clearly stated that the compensation for youth training players is only one million euros.

When Wenger took Fabregas away from La Masia, he only compensated Barcelona with 70 pounds.

However, in order to get Fabregas, Arsenal waived the 175 million pounds owed by Barcelona to buy Petit and Overmars, which means that they spent a total of 245 million pounds.

However, at that time, Fabregas represented Spain U17 in the World Junior Championship and performed very dazzlingly. He was a well-known talent in European football, and his net worth was naturally higher than that of Martin, a 'resurgent' talent.

It is a foregone conclusion that youth training players have not signed professional contracts, so the proportion of secondary transfers supplemented by the agreement has become a way to make up for the hidden losses caused by leaving prematurely.

Antero Enrique is confident that he can convince Mendes to increase the proportion of secondary transfers in the supplementary agreement.

We have cooperated very happily for many years. Increasing the ratio will not have any impact on Mendes. On the contrary, he will get more legal commissions.

Why not do it?

……

Mendes didn't know how to reject the unique vision of De Laurentiis, but Porto sports director Antero Enrique helped him solve this problem.

25% secondary transfer share!

This is hard to accept for a very proud man!

Especially with a style comparable to that of 'European black shop' Porto, how can they give up 1/4 of the secondary transfer share?

If you want to 'recover' the loss, you can naturally sell it at a premium of 25% in the future, but potential buyers are not fools...

Faced with Mendes's incompetence during the video call, Naples owner De Laurentiis, who originally planned to introduce Martin, had to turn his attention to other little monsters to see if he could win the lottery.

Wenger is the only Football-Manager left in world football.

In addition to being responsible for leading the team in games, he also has to free up energy to deal with player transfers, contract renewals and other matters.

Naturally, he couldn't stand the second transfer share offered by Porto, so he gave up the plan to introduce Martin.

Whether it is De Laurentiis or Wenger, in their view, FIFA itself has regulations on secondary transfers, and insisting on a 25% secondary transfer share involves a high degree of personal dignity.

Wolfsburg and Sevilla see clearly. Their financial strength does not allow them to compete for league and European championships, and their positioning is very clear.

Develop young players while guaranteeing a spot in the top flight!

The funds to run the club are obtained by selling players.

It plays a role similar to that of an 'intermediary', so naturally it doesn't care about the so-called secondary sharing.

Anyway, the price of youth training players is not high, and you can make money by training them.

It’s just a matter of making more or less.

If you are lucky and the young players get better and better as they play, you will make a lot of money!

Both clubs have strong intentions and the bids are almost the same, so the selection of players becomes particularly important.

Sevilla sports director Monchi even promised to successfully introduce Martin, and Mendes can also receive a considerable commission.

It has to be said that Monchi at this time was still an 'Eagle Eye' with a unique vision, which was in sharp contrast to the 'Chicken Eye' who later served as the sports director in Rome.

Mendes is a professional football agent and is known to respect players' wishes, and the team also prefers Martin to go to Wolfsburg.

Naturally, he practiced Tai Chi and focused on handling Martin's transfer to Wolfsburg.

At this time, FIFA has not yet issued new agent regulations, and Mendes can also represent both Martin and Porto to negotiate with the buyer Wolfsburg.

Martin, the client, remained highly focused during this period and wanted to become stronger!

Enough competition to win in Wolfsburg!

[Crossing] attribute has reached 70, and it will become slower if he continues to practice through special training. He will focus on improving [Strength].

I will turn 18 in three months, and it’s time to make myself stronger.

Mendes' team is making rapid progress, and Wolfsburg agreed to pay Porto 100 million euros in youth training compensation.

As a concession, the 25% secondary transfer share related to Martin's contract notes was reduced to 20%.

For a young player who has also represented the first team in professional matches, this youth training compensation is already very high.

Fabregas was taken away by Wenger that year, and Barcelona did not mention the second transfer share.
