vs 82 Treasury of South America
After the other leftover positions have been settled, Li Bin is thinking about how to solve the remaining forward position that needs to be replenished urgently, and the attacking midfielder position is unlikely to complete the rest work in Italy.
The position of the front half has always been Italy's shortcoming, because in history, it is used to the tactics of squatting in the back and attacking and counterattacking in the front, and Italy has never been out of the front waist. And Italy is now even more lacking in talent, and the top attacking players are not what Parma can afford. Even said, not to mention the front midfield, there is less any position in the front, Gilardino won the Serie A Golden Boot, and was bought by Milan in a blink of an eye, and Li Bin can barely be satisfied with the domestic players, that is, Di Natale, and Tony are good. But Di Natale has just been transferred for a year now, and he is in the honeymoon period with the team, and his performance is really good now, there is no need to transfer, and Toni is already worth 10 million, and it is not something that Parma can buy.
It's still a striker player, and it's already so much trouble, not to mention, the Italian midfielder. Of course, Totti, Pirlo and they are of course good at playing midfield, they are all world-class, but Parma can't afford them.
Therefore, attacking players, in any case, you have to look elsewhere. The matter with Milan has to be slowed down, just leave it to Balaldi to do, and he is going to buy people.
Therefore, after the arrival of June, Li Bin also embarked on the journey to South America.
South American football, in terms of technical level alone, has always been above Europe, and the players produced here are difficult to compare with Europeans in terms of skills. Moreover, the South American market is not very standardized, and sometimes, buying players in South America can indeed save a lot of money. Some people joke that the vast South America is a big treasure trove, and whether you can find people depends on the coach's vision.
And Li Bin's destination is Argentina. He also wants to pan for gold in this big treasure trove and see if there are any players who will satisfy him.
For a long time, the two largest football producers in South America have been Brazil and Argentina. It's always been said that South Americans are full of talent, but in fact, if you look closely, you can see that the only top players who have actually won the Ballon d'Or are players from these two countries. And Li Bin has always cooperated more with Argentina.
It is not without reason, Brazil have always been more famous than Argentina in terms of talent, they have produced more players and they have always been praised. But Brazil's market is also more chaotic. Compared to Argentina, their leagues are all models that have just been established in the new century, chaotic leagues, chaotic markets, and it is too difficult to cooperate with them.
And over the years, Brazilian football has indeed declined, which is also the reason why he gave up Brazil to establish a base.
Brazilian football has always relied on the excellent athletic talent of Brazilians to create talents, and some people understand that Brazilian football is played by wild football, in Brazil, football is compulsory at an early age, and children in Brazil, 6-17 years old, must take football lessons. In Brazil, what many people call street football is not to kick paper balls on the side of the road with bare feet, but to play football in a small football field on the street. At other times, beach soccer and other types of football have long been in full swing in Brazil, and their football heritage can be said to be the best place in the world.
However, in recent years, the rise of other sports has greatly impacted the space of Brazilian football. In fact, Brazil's basketball, volleyball and even table tennis are at a very high level, which is the first level in South America. In the past, these sports were not very popular, but the implementation of the Bosman Act made the soil of football suddenly precarious, and other sports took advantage of the momentum. Over the years, more activities have become popular, which has also caused their football to decline a little - this decline is not obvious to Kaka's generation, but it is even more obvious after arrival, and there is even a talent gap in Brazilian football at that time.
Therefore, Li Bin's partner in South America is still the Argentine team, and here, Li Bin has long laid out his own line.
"Long time no see, Lee!"
By the time he stepped off the plane, Li Bin had already seen his friend, Claudio Rydris, his friend in Argentina and his biggest scouting informant in the Argentine region.
"How are you doing?" Li Bin also greeted him, and he was quite happy to see that his old friend would not leave him at this time.
"I'm fine, of course it's good, recently our business is getting better and better, business is doing well, I'm naturally good." Claudio patted him, "I heard that you became a head coach, what does it mean to be a coach?" Come and do business with me, your vision and my way, we will make a fortune. ”
"If I really resign, will you still know me?" Li Bin said with a smile.
"Who do you think I am?" Claudio made a very dissatisfied look, "Am I such a snob? ”
"Aren't you?"
"Well, I'm ...... However, no matter how good the club is, how can it compare to my good friends! If it weren't for your help, how could I have the brokerage company I am now! To this day, I thank you for your advice. ”
Li Bin only listened to these words, but did not speak. He knew the people in front of him, and he knew that those words were credible and those words were not.
This person is indeed very grateful to Li Bin - Li Bin tapped him into a talent in South America, which made him where he is today, but he will certainly not be just a loyal dog, after all, he is now one of the biggest agents in South America.
The profession of agent seems to be very beautiful, but it is far from being as good as you think. The agent always has to rely on the team, they can get the players, they can get the players, they can get the recognition of the players by matching the players and finding the team to play, if they offend the team, their life will be very difficult. When the agent represents the player, he can negotiate terms with the team, but more often, they are all wagging their tails in front of the team, for fear that the team will break off the relationship with him, or force his players to jump ship - don't think that no one has done this kind of thing, a certain person named Little Moggie is very good at forcing players to change jobs, and most of the time, the players are also happy to think about their careers, rather than thinking about friendship with agents. Without a backer, the agent can't work, even if it's little Moji, he relies on having a good dad to work, and the rumors that Mendes and Mourinho colluded to make black money have spread more than once, offending the team, and without a way, the agent is useless waste.
Give an agent a stable exit for a player, and you can get the help and support of an agent - in fact, football in reality is so realistic.
The same is true of the cooperation between Li Bin and Collodio: Li Bin is a person who is used to paying more attention, but when he cooperates with the team, he is not at ease after all. Therefore, on the one hand, he cooperates with the team, on the other hand, he colludes with the agent, he has the way to transfer to Serie A, through cooperation with the team to obtain player information, hand it over to the agent, through cooperation with the agent to grasp the market dynamics, better predict good players - in general, many aspects of prediction, he can grasp the movement of players.
As his collaborator, Collodio is now also running a large scale, and Li Bin also knows that he has a lot of thoughts, so he doesn't trust him completely, but no matter how he says, he can be regarded as a person who can cooperate.
"How's business going?" After a few words of gossip, Li Bin also pulled the topic to the point
"Good. I listened to you right at the beginning, I didn't go to Brazil, I stayed in Argentina, I made money. ”
In this regard, Li Bin was not surprised, "Definitely, as soon as the Bosman Act comes out, the South American player market will definitely be affected and sluggish, and Brazil will bear the brunt, but I am afraid that the youth training will be over." Although the Argentines are in decline, after all, the Argentines have a mature league system and can develop players. ”
"Yes, in the past few years, I have relied on what you said, relying on the Argentine league, looking for outstanding and talented players in the surrounding small countries to sign and send the money to the Argentine league. Needless to say, you're a really good idea. ”
Li Bin smiled, of course this idea is good.
Uruguay, Paraguay, Mexico, Chile – these countries are not weak, and their football players always have some strong individuals. However, they don't get much attention, and for a long time, the value of the stars of these countries is lower than that of Argentina and Brazil, the two South American football dominants. Buy them and sell them to the Argentine league, and naturally you can make a lot of money. That's how Colodio cultivated his own company, and Li Bin contributed a lot during his time in the company city, and he also became Li Bin's helper.
Li Bin knows that South America has developed football, but there are problems with economic conditions, here, he is not qualified to help others train players, but there are many agent companies here, and they need a good vision and European relations, and cooperation with them is the best way.
"Chloe, I have a deal I want to discuss with you." After seeing that Colodio was doing a good job, Li Bin also opened his mouth, "I want to find an excellent and high-level forward player in South America, do you have a candidate?" ”
"Front-back?" Colodio frowned, "No. You also know that the tactical changes in the past two years have been great, and the position of the forward midfielder has changed too much. In the past, Riquelmedo was a good forward midfielder, but now it is useless. If you're looking for someone like Kaka, I can't really find it. This generation is too poor in strength. But if you want a striker, I have a couple of good candidates, and Falcao from River Plate is one of my players......"
"Let's keep it for now, I have to see if I buy a forward midfielder first, and then I will talk about it, the non-European quota is limited." Li Bin shook his head, "However, since I'm here, I'm here to Taobao." If there is any news of a good player, please let me know in time. ”
After saying goodbye to Collodio, Li Bin also inspected Argentina for a while, but felt a little disappointed. After all, the 2005 World Youth Championships are coming, and many young people are desperately trying to show themselves, and the strength of South American players is also outstanding, which makes Li Bin also want to take the opportunity to find a good player. Moreover, he originally wanted to try to see the level of Brazilian Diego, Argentine Conca and others who had played in the hall in his memory, but after all, he couldn't get into the hall, but after a round of inspection, the level of these people really couldn't satisfy him. And the more outstanding nameless striker, he also has not seen.
Collodio was right, the change of tactics, combined with the Boseman Act, washed out this generation.
I'm afraid that I can't find any good strikers in South America, but fortunately, I still have a backhand.
"Colo, I know that you have a lot of information about Dalisandro, give me all of them, and I may use them." After inspecting the circle and being disappointed, Li Bin rang Colodio again.
"Okay, I will, I'm looking for you. Lee, I've got a good player here, if you're willing to pay for it, you'll be able to get it? ”
"Argentina's Messi? If it's him, I'll pay for it. ”
"You don't know it, the contract he just signed has a liquidated damages of 150 million. I'm talking about another guy who is also a talented player. Captain of the Argentine team at this World Youth Championships. ”
World Junior Championships, Argentina captain? Li Bin thought about it and got the name.
"Zabaleta?"
