Chapter 84 - Kindness from Chelsea
"Mr. Chairman, there is an offer from England."
Rendoiro put down the remote control in his hand and replayed the last game against Zaragoza on TV. This game was really memorable, although Rendoiro was sitting in the The whole process was watched in the VIP box, but this did not prevent the Mr. Chairman from taking it out to savor it again.
Instead of standing up, Rendoiro reached out to take the folder from the assistant and opened it.
For Rendoiro, there are many things to say. Although Deportivo is not a strong team in La Liga, many players in the team are new stars or just starting players.Deportivo's financial situation has been very bad. They have not had the good luck of other teams to have a large amount of capital injection. In fact, Deportivo still has a debt in the bank that has not been paid off, and the results are not good. They can't count on broadcast fees and advertising fees, and they often fill the gap by buying and selling players.
In the past, the transfer manager Lucero was responsible for these matters, but now Lucero has been transferred to the second team by Rendoiro. In many cases, things involving player transfers have to be checked by Rendoiro himself.
Many older players in the team will inevitably be purged in the summer transfer window. If it is an offer for them, Lendoiro will not refuse.It would be too late if the transfers of all players were delayed until the summer. Many teams would make agreements privately, and even for some players, it would take a whole season of hard work and lobbying before they could be finalized. Saying hello is an essential step.
If it was those players sitting on the bench, Lendoiro would not hesitate, but when he saw the name on it, the old chairman sat up straight and frowned: "They want Thomas?"
The assistant is a tall, thin man with an unattractive appearance, but judging from his temperament and behavior, he knows that he is capable and capable.He nodded to Rendoiro and said: "Sir, this offer comes from Chelsea. That Russian guy is very interested in Clemens. I know sir, you don't want to see the offer about Thomas, but this price It is too difficult to refuse, so I dare not make a random decision."
A very tempting offer, of course, those British guys are playing football with foreign money, and they haven't seen how good their national team is.
There was a lot of complaints in my heart, but Rendoiro still played around with that number.
1500 million euros.
The goalkeeper has a special position. The goalkeeper transfer record in history was created by Buffon, but that was less than 2000 million euros.At that time, Buffon was already famous for his success and fame. Clemens is only a 19-year-old teenager now. It is beyond Rendoiro's imagination to be able to achieve such a worth.
"What's your estimated worth for Thomas?" Rendoiro tried to keep his eyes away from the string of zeros.
The assistant said without the slightest hesitation: "800 million euros, sir, Thomas is still very young."
Yes, very young, how can a teenager who is less than 20 years old get 500 million euros?It has almost doubled!
Rendoiro wanted to calm himself down, but in the end his heart still fluctuated too much. When he leaned himself on the back of the sofa, he said viciously: "Rich British guys, they are disrupting the market!"
"Then how should I reply?" The assistant took the folder.
Rendoiro took a few breaths of air vigorously. Although he is not young, Rendoiro's body has always been very good, but this time he seemed to have received a lot of stimulation, and he took a few breaths before saying: " Say no, tell them Thomas is not for sale."
The assistant showed a hesitant look on his face, and said in a low voice: "Sir, we have already incurred a lot of debt this season, and this money is very important to the club..."
"Clemens is the core of the team. I will not sell him. You will not pick up a second player for nothing." Clemens was promoted from the second team by Vazquez A small player, and Clemens was not produced by the Deportivo youth academy, he found it by himself.In other words, Clemens didn't spend a penny of Deportivo from training to obtaining it. This child seemed to be a gift from the gods to the Deportivo club, a gift from God, and fell directly to London. In front of Doiro.No matter how much Clemens is worth, even if it is only 100 million euros, it is very cost-effective for Deportivo.If it was someone else, Rendoiro would not have any hesitation, but now it is Clemens, even though Rendoiro is very tempted by the money, he still has not changed his decision.
He picked up the remote again to restart the paused scene on the TV, just in time for Clemens to score a fairy ball with a random flick.The blond-haired boy above looked bewildered, and then, surrounded by his teammates, he clenched his hand into a fist and gently knocked on his heart.
This action made Rendoiro smile unconsciously, and said softly: "I'm still a child, do you know what this child means now?"
The assistant didn't speak, just shook his head.He majored in economics, and in his eyes everything was a number. He felt that if he said that Clemens was just a pile of banknotes in his eyes, he would probably be scolded by Rendoiro.
But in his view, the meaning of Clemens is just a pile of banknotes, nothing more.
Rendoiro smiled and nestled himself on the sofa, and said lightly: "We have Clemens, which means we have a player who can decide the direction of the game. Such a player cannot be found casually." And according to the current trend of the team, we can look forward to the Europa League and even the Champions League next season. By that time, the broadcast fee will be soft. Buy my Thomas for 500 million? That Russian thinks so much beautiful."
Booster blinked, and he didn't try to persuade Rendoiro, because he could see an expectation in the old man's eyes.
Long time no see for the club.
Rendoiro pointed to the arm of the sofa and said, "Go and call Vazquez."
The assistant nodded and left the room.
Rendoiro turned off the TV. For him, this is a rare enjoyment. Seeing his team win and even crushing opponents is the most supreme enjoyment for Rendoiro.
This is his team, and here he is the supreme king, and this is the motivation that makes people willing to spend money.
Not long after, Vazquez knocked on the door, and Lendoiro said lightly: "Come in." Then he saw the old coach walk in with his hands in his jacket pockets.
Vazquez is different from those coaches who like concave shapes on the court. He is old and likes the clothes of the previous coaches. He wears simple sportswear and occasionally wears a hat to keep warm. He looks like the coaching staff around him. Members are no different.
Occasionally, however, old coaches envy other young coaches who can wear nice suits and ties in front of others, but Vazquez feels that his already fat body will not look good in a suit, that is a ball.
Smiling, he sat down in front of Rendoiro, and declined his chairman's offer to let him have a drink: "I will take the team to practice later, and next time I will definitely come to enjoy Mr. Chairman's collection of red wine."
Rendoiro didn't force it, he just took a sip and looked at Vazquez, and said, "How is the training of the players now?"
Vazquez habitually went to get his own notebook, and when he remembered that he had put it on the court, he simply said directly: "Not bad, sir, now we have entered the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, and the ranking in the league is also OK. Going around online, I think some aspects of the team have become very good at this time."
"Where's Clemens? I didn't see him here just now." Lendoiro pointed to the French windows in front of him.
Because he is very concerned about his team, Rendoiro's office did not build another building, but was directly arranged in a foreign building not far from the training ground. From here, everything in the stadium can be clearly seen. It was Lendoiro's favorite thing to do when he was free.But even though he was watching Clemens' performance in the last game just now, Rendoiro didn't see his club's precious goalkeeper from here, and he was unavoidably worried.
Vazquez's expression froze for a moment, and then he put his hand to his lips and coughed pretending not to care, but he smiled wryly in his heart.
A day ago, Clemens called him and asked for leave directly, but he didn't inform him of the time of leave, and he hasn't come back until now.
Vazquez is not worried about Clemens' professionalism. This is a young man who can tell from his eyes that he is extremely eager for victory. Even though there are many players on the team who are more lively than him, Clemens is One of the most player-quality of them all.
But now Lendoiro asked Vazquez that it is not easy to say that his goalkeeper stopped training for no reason. Yes, but I hope to give Clemens a break for his future consideration. Now the team’s next league tasks are not difficult, and proper rotation is acceptable, so I will give Clemens a holiday.”
Rendoiro has no doubts. The next round of league opponents will go to an away game against Getafe. The strength of this team has not improved for a long time. Deportivo's current attack power is bound to bring three points .
Although the reasons are different, both Lendoiro and Vazquez cherish Clemens very much, and they can reach a consensus in some aspects.
"I hope this injury will not affect Clemens' physical condition." Rendoiro sighed softly, and then stated his purpose for letting Vazquez come, "I just received a letter from London. offer."
"About Clemens?" Vazquez was not surprised. After all, Clemens is the one with the most potential in the team.
Young, calm, with perfect saves and long passes, and now he has scored a goal. Who wouldn't love him?
Vazquez knew that being able to get Rendoiro to call him was enough to prove that the offer was very tempting.Thinking of this, Vazquez unconsciously leaned forward and said, "Mr. Chairman, Clemens is very important to me..."
"I know this, so he is not for sale." Rendoiro interrupted Vazquez, looking at the old coach with a calm voice, "I can keep Clemens, but Vazquez Mr. Si, I hope to get a promise from you, this season you must lead the team to the threshold of the Champions League."
Fifteen million euros, this is a lot of money, so much that Rendoiro feels a toothache.
It takes courage for him to refuse this huge sum of money. The source of courage is not only his persistence and love for the club, but also he needs Deportivo to get the corresponding results and participate in the European war next year. Only in this way can we also get equivalent money in the broadcast fee that is enough to make up for the shortfall.
Vazquez understood what Rendoiro meant, he nodded without changing his face, and directly agreed to Rendoiro's request.
But Vazquez knew in his heart that his coaching position was once again linked to the team's performance.
If you can't get a place in the Champions League, maybe next season Vazquez will start looking for a job again.
It's all because of Thomas, but what the hell is Thomas doing?Vazquez gritted his teeth angrily, but there was nothing he could do.
===
It is never easy to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, otherwise Mr. Daochang in his previous life would not have left the Taoist temple directly to live in seclusion in the mountains and become neighbors with a group of Gunguns.
Counting it, this was the first real retreat for Clemens. Even though he was full of spiritual power, he didn't need to retreat for ten and a half months like before, but it still lasted for two full days.
Clemens kept sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his eyes closed, as if he had completely isolated himself from the outside world, unaware of heat and cold, unaware of hunger, and completely perceiving the flow of spiritual power in his body with all his heart , Enrich the inner palace.
There is a misty cloud of breath, and I haven't seen the shadow of the pill yet, but it is much better than before. In the past, Mr. Daochang's body was not enough, and the spiritual power entered the body just as a passer-by Forget it, it can't be kept, but now it can be kept in the body, which is an improvement.
Because this transition was smooth and not as dangerous as when he broke through on the court last time, Clemens didn't feel too much sadness and pain, but he widened his meridians a little.
Just this little bit of effort has already consumed two days, but Clemens didn't feel the flow of time at all, he only felt that he closed his eyes and then opened them again.
But what really made Clemens feel the flow of time was his stomach that had begun to growl incessantly.
Having not eaten for two days, every cell of Mr. Daochang's appetite is clamoring to explode.Clemens, who has never treated his mouth badly since time travel, feels that he must have passed a long time, the specific time... I just hope that it will not be the same as before. The retreat is a year, so I will see it when I go out. The only thing is the end of the season, the end of the cup and the end of the World Cup qualifiers, it is really terrible.
He casually grabbed the mobile phone at the side, the screen was black, it seemed that it had exhausted its own battery and turned off.
He got up and found the charging cable to charge the phone, and then he didn't care about charging it again, so Clemens turned on the phone directly.
And the date above made Mr. Daochang unconsciously relieved.
On January 26th, it seems that I have only passed two days.
Feeling a little relieved, Clemens decided to reward his appetite and go shopping for some necessary supplies.
On the way to the supermarket, Clemens looked at his phone, and found that there were two condolence text messages from Vazquez, as well as greetings or jokes from his teammates, and the rest were greetings from Kaka. There are more than 30 missed calls stuffed into the phone, which looks very spectacular when lined up together.
The photo of Kaka's call is the only single photo of Kaka in Clemens' mobile phone. After all, Clemens usually saves a group photo of Kaka and himself, and there is only one single photo.
That is the promotional photo of the "Golden Throat Lozenge" mentioned by netizens on Weibo.
The Kaka on it was more like a toothpaste advertisement, with white teeth, a bright and silly smile, and the inexplicable Clemens took this as the caller profile picture.
Thinking about whether to call Kaka back, but the time now should be when Kaka is preparing for the weekend league match, Clemens put the phone in his pocket first, thinking about talking later.
After shopping around in the supermarket, Clemens walked into a restaurant not far from his home.The taste here is good, and the portions are very generous, which is perfect for Clemens who is in desperate need of filling.
Putting the shopping bag aside, Clemens beckoned to the waiter.
The waitress looked a little careless. After all, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. When it was not time to eat, she was sitting at a table in a corner and painting lipstick with a small round mirror.In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she was even a little annoyed by the people who came in at the moment, what did she do for lunch in the afternoon?No one takes a break.
But when the waitress looked up and saw Clemens's face, she immediately shook her hands, twisted the fiery red lipstick, and wiped it directly on the outside of her lips.
She vigorously wiped off the excess lipstick, quickly smoothed her long hair with her hands to make herself look more decent, and then walked in front of Clemens in three steps at a time, her voice was filled with excitement. It seemed a little distorted: "Hello, Mr. Clemens, is there anything I can do for you?"
Clemens was holding the menu of the restaurant in his hand. He didn't look at the waitress's face, but said: "Seafood fried rice, sirloin steak, German sausage, one of each." At the beginning, I added another sentence to the waitress, "I hope it can be faster, I am very hungry now, thank you."
The waitress stared straight at the thank you, took the menu in a daze, and then floated into the back kitchen. Clemens didn't know if she remembered what he said.
Shaking his head, Clemens reached for the remote control in the store and turned on the TV.
Coincidentally, the first thing I saw was the report about myself inside, and the black font was scrolled out below.
"Clemens may be reimbursed directly for the season due to relapse of old injury, Vazquez angrily reprimands reporters"
Clemens turned off the TV directly, and then took out his mobile phone to report to Vazquez that he was safe.
The old coach was not as distraught as he heard on TV. In fact, because of Vazquez’s absolute trust in Clemens, Vazquez was always optimistic about when Clemens would come back. After receiving the call from Clemens, Er also smiled and told him to take good care of his injuries, and then hung up the phone.
It didn't take long for the dishes to be served. Clemens picked up the knife and fork and began to fill his stomach. Mr. Daochang, who has never worried about body fat, quickly settled the food on the table, and each one was full of meat and vegetables. , if Nelson, who gets fat when he eats it, will probably yell out enviously.
But halfway through the meal, Clemens heard the melodious ringing of the phone.
This is music that can often be heard in Taoist temples. It is a bit weird to be regarded as a mobile phone ringtone, but Clemens stretched out his hand and pressed the answer button with a calm face: "Hi, Jorge, what's the matter?" ?"
Mendes on the other side of the phone spoke with a smile and sounded in a good mood: "Good morning Thomas, the midweek game was very good, congratulations on getting the best player in the game." Mendes didn't say anything after saying this. Stopped, but went on to say, "There is something I want to let you know, Thomas, just now a club called me, they hope to facilitate your transfer in the summer transfer window, I I want to ask your opinion."
Clemens blinked. It looked like Mendes hadn't contacted him for the past two days, otherwise it was impossible that he didn't know that his phone had been shut down for a long time.
In fact, even if Mendes doesn’t mention Clemens, he knows that many teams are interested in him. Mendes is always in a good mood and says that Clemens will definitely become a superstar. Those teams who come to inquire It is also a source of confidence for Mendes.
But Mendes seldom told himself these things. This is a good agent. He didn't want to let things outside the field affect Clemens' competitive state. Many teams were blocked by Mendes. beyond the qualifying line.
It was the first time for him to directly ask himself about his attitude. Clemens quickly settled the remaining food. Although he felt that his stomach was still a little empty, he didn't stay any longer and put the money on the table. , there was also a tip for the waitress just now, and then he picked up his coat and left this delicious restaurant without looking back, without seeing the regrettable expression on the waitress' face.
Wearing a baseball cap, Clemens lowered the brim of his hat, looking like an ordinary big boy mingling in the crowd, and his voice sounded very calm and gentle: "It's really rare that you can tell me these things , it looks like that team is very important to you."
Mendes did not deny it. In fact, Clemens said it well. This is a club that has a close relationship with Mendes, and it has a lot of weight: "I like your intelligence, Thomas, the one who proposed to you this time It is a Premier League team, the Blues Chelsea, and their offer is generous enough, and the weekly salary and signing fee are prices that people feel cannot refuse."
"This will not be the reason for you to be tempted." Clemens changed his hand holding the shopping bag, but this did not affect his thinking. Mendes is not one of those small agents who are only interested in money, and can impress It's definitely not just about the money.
Mendes likes to talk to smart people, which often omits a lot of unnecessary nonsense, but obviously, except for Marcelo, who is a little confused in life, and Nelson, who is particularly easy to fool, the rest of his players are Too smart, even this 19-year-old kid can see what he thinks at a glance, which makes Mendes feel no sense of accomplishment.
"You see through me, Thomas, well, then I can tell you my thoughts clearly." A voice of flipping the pages came from Mendes' side, "Chelsea's main goalkeeper is Petr Cech, that is An absolutely excellent goalkeeper. I have a very deep relationship with Chelsea. I was the one who brokered many of their players. I was the one who negotiated with Jose Mourinho before. I know exactly how it works."
In the next few minutes, Clemens was in a state of quiet listening, and only Mendes, who was on the opposite side, explained the things about Chelsea in detail for Clemens.
Chelsea is a rich club. There is no doubt that their boss Abramovich spends a lot of money in the European arena. It is no longer a new thing. It can be said that Chelsea has created the current golden dollar era. Disrupted the transfer market, causing all the players' worth to start rolling up.
But Chelsea are not pure upstarts, they waved the euro to buy people in the transfer market, but if you look closely, you can see that Chelsea bought a lot of young people from various teams, and those young players in their 20s were taken away. After Chelsea bought it at a high price, not everyone has the opportunity to play in the Chelsea first team. Most of them are actually bought by Chelsea and then loaned out to other clubs.
The best example of this is Courtois, who is now the main goalkeeper at Atletico Madrid. His ownership is Chelsea. It can be said that Chelsea can pull him back at any time.
Mendes took a sip of water, and then continued: "Chelsea's attitude is obvious, they will buy you, but you can't play in the Chelsea first team when Cech is still there, they will loan you to other giants. team, and continue to pay your salary, and invest enough money in you to help you go further."
"It sounds like players are being treated as a commodity." Clemens's blue eyes looked straight ahead, without squinting.
"You can understand it this way. They already knew the result of their early investment in you. If you are good enough, you will naturally take over Petr Cech's class as the main goalkeeper. If your condition declines, they can also sell you. Go cash out directly." Mendes said this very nakedly, "but overall it is good for you, Deportivo and Chelsea are not a middleweight team, this is a good opportunity. And they are willing to loan you to Deportivo after buying you, in fact you are still playing in your current team."
Clemens was a little hesitant. In fact, he didn't think it was a good thing. Loyalty to the team had become a fixed cognition in Clemens' mind. Even if he would leave Deportivo in the end, Clemens Mens also hopes to leave Deportivo with a good enough ending, at least a championship trophy.
But now even with the good treatment, Chelsea's attitude is obvious. The survival of the fittest, which is comparable to the law of the jungle, made Clemens feel uncomfortable instinctively.
"I need to think about it. I know Chelsea's sincerity very well, but Jorge, I don't like the way of renting." Clemens, who had already reached the door of his apartment, reached for the key.
However, the posture of holding the mobile phone in one hand and the shopping bag in the other made Clemens have to put down the bag in his hand before he could touch the keychain in the pocket, but immediately, a hand stretched out from the side.
Clemens blinked, turned his head to look, and saw the smiling Kaka showing a sunny smile.
Just as he was wondering why he saw Kaka at the door of his house, Clemens felt that his hands were empty, and when he turned around, he saw that the cell phone he was holding had been grabbed by another person.
Jose Mourinho, who was wearing a gray trench coat, frowned and held his mobile phone. The first sentence he spoke was full of resentment: "Jorge, you once promised me that I would not take away the players I like, and now you actually Are you helping others to be a lobbyist?"
Rendoiro put down the remote control in his hand and replayed the last game against Zaragoza on TV. This game was really memorable, although Rendoiro was sitting in the The whole process was watched in the VIP box, but this did not prevent the Mr. Chairman from taking it out to savor it again.

And according to the current trend of the team, we can look forward to the Europa League and even the Champions League next season. By that time, the broadcast fee will be soft. Buy my Thomas for 500 million? That Russian thinks so much beautiful."
Booster blinked, and he didn't try to persuade Rendoiro, because he could see an expectation in the old man's eyes.
Long time no see for the club.
Rendoiro pointed to the arm of the sofa and said, "Go and call Vazquez."
The assistant nodded and left the room.
Rendoiro turned off the TV. For him, this is a rare enjoyment. Seeing his team win and even crushing opponents is the most supreme enjoyment for Rendoiro.
This is his team, and here he is the supreme king, and this is the motivation that makes people willing to spend money.

Vazquez habitually went to get his own notebook, and when he remembered that he had put it on the court, he simply said directly: "Not bad, sir, now we have entered the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, and the ranking in the league is also OK.

Fifteen million euros, this is a lot of money, so much that Rendoiro feels a toothache.
It takes courage for him to refuse this huge sum of money. The source of courage is not only his persistence and love for the club, but also he needs Deportivo to get the corresponding results and participate in the European war next year. Only in this way can we also get equivalent money in the broadcast fee that is enough to make up for the shortfall.
Vazquez understood what Rendoiro meant, he nodded without changing his face, and directly agreed to Rendoiro's request.
But Vazquez knew in his heart that his coaching position was once again linked to the team's performance.
If you can't get a place in the Champions League, maybe next season Vazquez will start looking for a job again.
It's all because of Thomas, but what the hell is Thomas doing?Vazquez gritted his teeth angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

It is never easy to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, otherwise Mr. Daochang in his previous life would not have left the Taoist temple directly to live in seclusion in the mountains and become neighbors with a group of Gunguns.
Counting it, this was the first real retreat for Clemens. Even though he was full of spiritual power, he didn't need to retreat for ten and a half months like before, but it still lasted for two full days.
Clemens kept sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his eyes closed, as if he had completely isolated himself from the outside world, unaware of heat and cold, unaware of hunger, and completely perceiving the flow of spiritual power in his body with all his heart , Enrich the inner palace.
There is a misty cloud of breath, and I haven't seen the shadow of the pill yet, but it is much better than before. In the past, Mr. Daochang's body was not enough, and the spiritual power entered the body just as a passer-by Forget it, it can't be kept, but now it can be kept in the body, which is an improvement.
Because this transition was smooth and not as dangerous as when he broke through on the court last time, Clemens didn't feel too much sadness and pain, but he widened his meridians a little.
Just this little bit of effort has already consumed two days, but Clemens didn't feel the flow of time at all, he only felt that he closed his eyes and then opened them again.
But what really made Clemens feel the flow of time was his stomach that had begun to growl incessantly.
Having not eaten for two days, every cell of Mr. Daochang's appetite is clamoring to explode.Clemens, who has never treated his mouth badly since time travel, feels that he must have passed a long time, the specific time... I just hope that it will not be the same as before. The retreat is a year, so I will see it when I go out. The only thing is the end of the season, the end of the cup and the end of the World Cup qualifiers, it is really terrible.
He casually grabbed the mobile phone at the side, the screen was black, it seemed that it had exhausted its own battery and turned off.
He got up and found the charging cable to charge the phone, and then he didn't care about charging it again, so Clemens turned on the phone directly.
And the date above made Mr. Daochang unconsciously relieved.
On January 26th, it seems that I have only passed two days.
Feeling a little relieved, Clemens decided to reward his appetite and go shopping for some necessary supplies.
On the way to the supermarket, Clemens looked at his phone, and found that there were two condolence text messages from Vazquez, as well as greetings or jokes from his teammates, and the rest were greetings from Kaka. There are more than 30 missed calls stuffed into the phone, which looks very spectacular when lined up together.
The photo of Kaka's call is the only single photo of Kaka in Clemens' mobile phone. After all, Clemens usually saves a group photo of Kaka and himself, and there is only one single photo.
That is the promotional photo of the "Golden Throat Lozenge" mentioned by netizens on Weibo.
The Kaka on it was more like a toothpaste advertisement, with white teeth, a bright and silly smile, and the inexplicable Clemens took this as the caller profile picture.
Thinking about whether to call Kaka back, but the time now should be when Kaka is preparing for the weekend league match, Clemens put the phone in his pocket first, thinking about talking later.
After shopping around in the supermarket, Clemens walked into a restaurant not far from his home.The taste here is good, and the portions are very generous, which is perfect for Clemens who is in desperate need of filling.
Putting the shopping bag aside, Clemens beckoned to the waiter.
The waitress looked a little careless. After all, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. When it was not time to eat, she was sitting at a table in a corner and painting lipstick with a small round mirror.In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she was even a little annoyed by the people who came in at the moment, what did she do for lunch in the afternoon?No one takes a break.
But when the waitress looked up and saw Clemens's face, she immediately shook her hands, twisted the fiery red lipstick, and wiped it directly on the outside of her lips.
She vigorously wiped off the excess lipstick, quickly smoothed her long hair with her hands to make herself look more decent, and then walked in front of Clemens in three steps at a time, her voice was filled with excitement. It seemed a little distorted: "Hello, Mr. Clemens, is there anything I can do for you?"
Clemens was holding the menu of the restaurant in his hand. He didn't look at the waitress's face, but said: "Seafood fried rice, sirloin steak, German sausage, one of each." At the beginning, I added another sentence to the waitress, "I hope it can be faster, I am very hungry now, thank you."
The waitress stared straight at the thank you, took the menu in a daze, and then floated into the back kitchen. Clemens didn't know if she remembered what he said.
Shaking his head, Clemens reached for the remote control in the store and turned on the TV.
Coincidentally, the first thing I saw was the report about myself inside, and the black font was scrolled out below.
"Clemens may be reimbursed directly for the season due to relapse of old injury, Vazquez angrily reprimands reporters"
Clemens turned off the TV directly, and then took out his mobile phone to report to Vazquez that he was safe.
The old coach was not as distraught as he heard on TV. In fact, because of Vazquez’s absolute trust in Clemens, Vazquez was always optimistic about when Clemens would come back. After receiving the call from Clemens, Er also smiled and told him to take good care of his injuries, and then hung up the phone.
It didn't take long for the dishes to be served. Clemens picked up the knife and fork and began to fill his stomach. Mr. Daochang, who has never worried about body fat, quickly settled the food on the table, and each one was full of meat and vegetables. , if Nelson, who gets fat when he eats it, will probably yell out enviously.
But halfway through the meal, Clemens heard the melodious ringing of the phone.
This is music that can often be heard in Taoist temples. It is a bit weird to be regarded as a mobile phone ringtone, but Clemens stretched out his hand and pressed the answer button with a calm face: "Hi, Jorge, what's the matter?" ?"
Mendes on the other side of the phone spoke with a smile and sounded in a good mood: "Good morning Thomas, the midweek game was very good, congratulations on getting the best player in the game." Mendes didn't say anything after saying this. Stopped, but went on to say, "There is something I want to let you know, Thomas, just now a club called me, they hope to facilitate your transfer in the summer transfer window, I I want to ask your opinion."
Clemens blinked. It looked like Mendes hadn't contacted him for the past two days, otherwise it was impossible that he didn't know that his phone had been shut down for a long time.
In fact, even if Mendes doesn’t mention Clemens, he knows that many teams are interested in him. Mendes is always in a good mood and says that Clemens will definitely become a superstar. Those teams who come to inquire It is also a source of confidence for Mendes.
But Mendes seldom told himself these things. This is a good agent. He didn't want to let things outside the field affect Clemens' competitive state. Many teams were blocked by Mendes. beyond the qualifying line.
It was the first time for him to directly ask himself about his attitude. Clemens quickly settled the remaining food. Although he felt that his stomach was still a little empty, he didn't stay any longer and put the money on the table. , there was also a tip for the waitress just now, and then he picked up his coat and left this delicious restaurant without looking back, without seeing the regrettable expression on the waitress' face.
Wearing a baseball cap, Clemens lowered the brim of his hat, looking like an ordinary big boy mingling in the crowd, and his voice sounded very calm and gentle: "It's really rare that you can tell me these things , it looks like that team is very important to you."
Mendes did not deny it. In fact, Clemens said it well. This is a club that has a close relationship with Mendes, and it has a lot of weight: "I like your intelligence, Thomas, the one who proposed to you this time It is a Premier League team, the Blues Chelsea, and their offer is generous enough, and the weekly salary and signing fee are prices that people feel cannot refuse."
"This will not be the reason for you to be tempted." Clemens changed his hand holding the shopping bag, but this did not affect his thinking. Mendes is not one of those small agents who are only interested in money, and can impress It's definitely not just about the money.
Mendes likes to talk to smart people, which often omits a lot of unnecessary nonsense, but obviously, except for Marcelo, who is a little confused in life, and Nelson, who is particularly easy to fool, the rest of his players are Too smart, even this 19-year-old kid can see what he thinks at a glance, which makes Mendes feel no sense of accomplishment.
"You see through me, Thomas, well, then I can tell you my thoughts clearly." A voice of flipping the pages came from Mendes' side, "Chelsea's main goalkeeper is Petr Cech, that is An absolutely excellent goalkeeper. I have a very deep relationship with Chelsea. I was the one who brokered many of their players. I was the one who negotiated with Jose Mourinho before. I know exactly how it works."
In the next few minutes, Clemens was in a state of quiet listening, and only Mendes, who was on the opposite side, explained the things about Chelsea in detail for Clemens.
Chelsea is a rich club. There is no doubt that their boss Abramovich spends a lot of money in the European arena. It is no longer a new thing. It can be said that Chelsea has created the current golden dollar era. Disrupted the transfer market, causing all the players' worth to start rolling up.
But Chelsea are not pure upstarts, they waved the euro to buy people in the transfer market, but if you look closely, you can see that Chelsea bought a lot of young people from various teams, and those young players in their 20s were taken away. After Chelsea bought it at a high price, not everyone has the opportunity to play in the Chelsea first team. Most of them are actually bought by Chelsea and then loaned out to other clubs.
The best example of this is Courtois, who is now the main goalkeeper at Atletico Madrid. His ownership is Chelsea. It can be said that Chelsea can pull him back at any time.
Mendes took a sip of water, and then continued: "Chelsea's attitude is obvious, they will buy you, but you can't play in the Chelsea first team when Cech is still there, they will loan you to other giants. team, and continue to pay your salary, and invest enough money in you to help you go further."
"It sounds like players are being treated as a commodity." Clemens's blue eyes looked straight ahead, without squinting.
"You can understand it this way. They already knew the result of their early investment in you. If you are good enough, you will naturally take over Petr Cech's class as the main goalkeeper. If your condition declines, they can also sell you. Go cash out directly." Mendes said this very nakedly, "but overall it is good for you, Deportivo and Chelsea are not a middleweight team, this is a good opportunity. And they are willing to loan you to Deportivo after buying you, in fact you are still playing in your current team."
Clemens was a little hesitant. In fact, he didn't think it was a good thing. Loyalty to the team had become a fixed cognition in Clemens' mind. Even if he would leave Deportivo in the end, Clemens Mens also hopes to leave Deportivo with a good enough ending, at least a championship trophy.
But now even with the good treatment, Chelsea's attitude is obvious. The survival of the fittest, which is comparable to the law of the jungle, made Clemens feel uncomfortable instinctively.
"I need to think about it. I know Chelsea's sincerity very well, but Jorge, I don't like the way of renting." Clemens, who had already reached the door of his apartment, reached for the key.
However, the posture of holding the mobile phone in one hand and the shopping bag in the other made Clemens have to put down the bag in his hand before he could touch the keychain in the pocket, but immediately, a hand stretched out from the side.
Clemens blinked, turned his head to look, and saw the smiling Kaka showing a sunny smile.
Just as he was wondering why he saw Kaka at the door of his house, Clemens felt that his hands were empty, and when he turned around, he saw that the cell phone he was holding had been grabbed by another person.
Jose Mourinho, who was wearing a gray trench coat, frowned and held his mobile phone. The first sentence he spoke was full of resentment: "Jorge, you once promised me that I would not take away the players I like, and now you actually Are you helping others to be a lobbyist?"
