There are no secrets on shijie, no secrets that are impermeable. What's more, if it is the news that Rist himself wants to leak, it will spread faster. Rist has been an agent for so many years, and he is already comfortable playing this method. And they can all do it without leakage, so that people can slowly accept this matter. Soon news of Chelsea's interest in Benitez spread everywhere and all the newspapers were talking about it.

Not many people doubted the news, because Chelsea are poaching people everywhere these days. Roman Abramovich has only been at Chelsea for less than a year, and Manchester United CEO Peter Brown. Kenyon has been poached into Chelsea, let alone Liverpool's manager. And if an upstart like Chelsea wants to attract everyone's attention and quickly increase Chelsea's influence, this method is the most haode. Although such an approach is easy to attract many enemies, Abramovich, who has tens of billions of assets, wants a rapid rise, and those enemies are not in his eyes at all.

Liverpool weren't satisfied. In fact, Benitez has been in charge of Liverpool for two seasons, and the results are not very good, which is much lower than the original expectations. The most satisfying thing about Benitez is that he has done well in the strong dialogue. Therefore, Liverpool is a little anxious, Liverpool has not thought about terminating the contract with Benitez, but also has not thought about signing a new contract with Benitez, it all depends on the results of this season. But now Liverpool is starting to get anxious. Of course, the main concern for Liverpool FC is to lose face.

The more wealthy the family, the more they care about their face, and the more they care about these things. Peter. Kenyon has made a big contribution to Manchester United, though. But his departure won't leave United unfazed. But the reaction from United was so great that Kenyon couldn't really become Chelsea's CEO for months. It wasn't until Manchester United were out of breath that Kenyon became Chelsea's CEO. There is also Mikel in history, Manchester United did not hesitate to fight a lawsuit with Chelsea, and Zuihou or Chelsea lost more than 10 million pounds to settle Mikel's transfer.

Speaking of which, it is because of the self-esteem of the wealthy. Manchester United, as the number one club in the Premier League, how could it be possible to allow an upstart like Chelsea to rob people from Manchester United again and again. That's why Manchester United reacted so much.

The same goes for Liverpool. Manchester United is a Premier League giant, so Liverpool is the number one giant in English football. As a giant who has fallen so far, Liverpool cares more about his face and his reputation. It would be a shame to let an upstart like Chelsea take away his manager. Therefore, the Liverpool hierarchy immediately contacted Rist. Hopefully we can talk about Benitez's contract extension.

In particular, 11 March 2004. After Liverpool returned to the Bernabeu to win 2-1 against Real Madrid again, Benitez's market is getting higher and higher. Although Real Madrid has not performed well in the Champions League this season, Real Madrid is the number one club in European football after all. In fact, from 96 to 02, the two clubs in European football are Real Madrid and Bayern with the best performance, and even after 02, Real Madrid is still strong in European football. Such Real Madrid was directly beaten into a sieve by Liverpool. Real Madrid were given five goals by Liverpool over two legs. In this battle, Benitez's fame was hyped again.

"Rist. Coach Benitez has been doing well lately. ”

Liverpool is in a hurry. Rist is in no hurry. After watching Liverpool's game in Madrid, Rist did not meet with the Liverpool hierarchy. Because in the subsequent draw, Liverpool had good luck. Ran into a locomotive in Moscow. This draw came out and everyone believed that Liverpool would have no problem progressing to the last four. So Rist waited, waiting for the matter to continue to hype, and then fight for a more Haode contract based on Benitez's performance in the Champions League. So I just told the Liverpool hierarchy that Benitez had not decided to go to Chelsea and meet with another agent for dinner.

"Fried."

It was Raiola who met with Rist. Rist and Raiola have known each other for many years, nine if you count them. Raiola is only a year older than Rist, and like Rist, he is just a young agent in his thirties. Raiola has an extraordinary relationship with Czech coach Zeman. However, there has not been much contact between Rist and Raiola over the years, and there should not be much cooperation.

Raiola's business is mainly concentrated in Serie A, and many Eredivisie players have transferred to Serie A, and Raiola's contribution is great. The current Raiola is not very famous, in Serie A, Moggi is a one-handed cover, plus Mascala, Hidalgo and other South American agent predators, and agents like Kariendo, who have a very close relationship with South American football, form an Italian football agent. But Raiola doesn't look at his fame, but he is a real powerhouse, and he is not high-profile at all, so at present, he is just not famous. One of the main reasons is that Raiola is very low-key and doesn't even have much contact with his peers. And Rister has always stayed away from Serie A, so Rister and Raiola basically don't mess with river water.

And both of them are developing shili in the Netherlands, and there has never been any conflict and cooperation. Rist is based in PSV Eindhoven and has been in the Netherlands for many years. Raiola, on the contrary, developed around Ajax. He has a good relationship with the Ajax hierarchy and many of his players are Ajax players. This is the case with Ibramovich and Maxwell now. In addition to Ajax's own academy players, the players imported from Eastern European countries are basically run by Raiola.

Of course, Eindhoven and Ajax have a very poor relationship with each other, and there is never any player communication with each other and so on. It is also rare for each other's senior executives to greet each other in harmony. But these have nothing to do with agents like Rist and Raiola. The relationship between the two sides is not good within Dutch football, but nothing happens outside Dutch football.

"Mino, how do you have time to get to Madrid? You're not going to watch Liverpool and Real Madrid play too, are you? ”

"I came here to find you."

Raiola and Rist have known each other for a long time, plus Zeman is a factor. Although they don't usually come and go, they are relatively casual.

"Looking for me?"

Rist shrugged, not quite understanding what Raiola meant. The two people as agents have different styles of doing things, different ways of doing things, and even different points of interest. Raiola is following the current path of Stretford, which is to use one or two superstar players to increase his value. This is the path taken by many traditional brokers, including Zidane and Ronaldo now. It's just that Zidane and Ronaldo are low-key agents, and the future Raiola has a bad reputation.

And Rist walks a different way from traditional brokers, and Rist takes a different model. There are very few people who can afford to play this mode, and there are not many who dare to play. So Rist didn't understand what Raiola meant by looking for him.

"Yes. There's something I want you to help with. ”

"Please."

Reesette nodded. Although the relationship with Raiola is not too close. But if he can help, Lister will still help. Riste, an agent like Raiola, is willing to make friends, and playing with the club Rylister can't catch up with Raiola. Maybe there will be a chance to work with Raiola in the future.

"Ibramovic of Ajax."

"Ibramović?"

Rister paused for a moment, beginning to understand what Raiola meant. Ibramovic is Ajax's main centre-forward and has performed quite well. Of course, the main reason is that Ibramovic's jishu is very good, and the football is very enjoyable. From a lethal point of view. He is not as strong as Drogba Eindhoven right now.

Raiola sought out himself because of the Ibramović affair. Rist could probably guess what Raiola meant. Many fans know that Ibramovic left Ajax because of a conflict with Van der Vaart. In particular, Ibramovic's injury to Van der Vaart was the trigger for their conflict. But that's just the opinion of the fans.

An agent like Lister, who has a big role in Dutch football, has long known that Ibramovic's departure from Ajax is inevitable. Raiola is not going to let Ibramovic waste his time at Ajax, who has a conflict with the Ajax academy players. It's not a sudden appearance in the summer. In fact, the contradictions between them already exist, but they are not made public. Ajax Academy talents like Van der Vaart are all looking at the top and want to revive Ajax. A player like Van der Vaart, who is known as the "new Cruyff", how can he not be proud.

And Ibramovic is a fearless player with his nostrils in the sky. Arsene Wenger took a fancy to him and wanted him to come over for a tryout, which Ibramovic thought was an insult to him. You can imagine how confident he is, and even a little complacent and proud. He was not used to Van der Vaart's privileges at Ajax, so the relationship between them turned out to be very poor. Historically, the wounding of Van der Vaart is nothing more than a general eruption of contradictions.

"What would you like me to help?"

'Lister, I've been in contact with Juventus lately. I'm not going to hide it from you, it's not going well. Juventus already have Trezeguet, Piero and Ajax are offering a lot of money, and Moggi has some hesitation. ”

"Huh? And you still let Ibramovic go to Juventus? You're not afraid that he'll play as a substitute there? ”

Rist asked with a smile. At the moment, Juventus' forward line is not short of talent. Rist didn't know what kind of confidence Raiola had to let Ibramovic go to Juventus.

"Lister, sometimes we as agents have to dare to make decisions. I have full confidence in Zlatan that he will be able to establish himself at Juventus. ”

Looking at the confident Raio Lalist, he smiled. Raiola is a powerful man, and people think of him more as a vampire, and a bunch of big families don't like him. It also obscures his excellent vision and his decisiveness. There are so many strongmen at Juventus that he still brought Ibramovic to Juventus. It turned out to be a stroke of genius and Ibramovic became the best player in Serie A.

And later Pogba. One might think that Raiola brought Pogba to Juventus because Juventus gave him more money, but it was also a gamble by Raiola, which ended up being a huge success. Pogba has become Juventus' main midfielder in just two or three years, and has become one of the best midfielders in European football. Raiola is definitely one of the best in European football in this regard.

"Mino, then I won't hide it from you. My relationship with Juventus is not as good as I thought it would be. Although Pavel is in the middle, I have nothing to do with Moji. ”

"I know."

As the most powerful agent in European football at present, Rister has little to do with Italian football, which everyone knows. Many insiders believe that the main reason is that the Italian economy is getting sluggish and the income of Italian football is getting lower and lower. They believe that there are fewer and fewer big transfers in Italian football, which is also the reason why Rister is not entering Italian football.

"Then you're still coming to me."

"Lister, I know you don't have much to do with Juventus. But Nedved has a good relationship with the Juventus hierarchy and Rist wants Nedved to help. ”

Rist did not answer immediately. Indeed, as Raiola said, Rist and Juventus have a working relationship. Rister is currently more about developing his commercial value for Nedved and more about some off-field issues. Because at Juventus, Nedved doesn't need Rist to take care of him personally.

On the contrary, Nedved himself has a very good relationship with the Juventus hierarchy, especially with Agnelli Jr. Even Nedved's home was next to little Agnelli's house, and the two were neighbors and had a good personal relationship.

Historically, Nedved and Raiola have had a good relationship, and Nedved's transfer to Juventus was operated by Raiola. So when Ibramovic moved to Juventus, it was very difficult, so he asked Nedved to help convince Agnelli Jr. Ibramovic moved to Juventus and Nedved contributed a lot.

But now it's different, Raiola and Nedved have a mediocre relationship. The main reason is that Raiola is reluctant to contact Nedved, which makes Lister, the agent predator, misunderstand. After all, Nedved is now Lister's No. 1 ace player, and if anyone dares to touch Nedved, then they will inevitably offend Lister. So Raiola went to Rist first.

"You want Pavel to help you out."

"Yes."

That's what Raiola is all about. Ibramovic is almost 23 years old and Raiola is reluctant to let him continue to waste time in the Eredivisie. Raiola has analysed Serie A and Juventus is the best fit for Ibramovic.

Rist nodded slowly. If Ibramovic is a player of poor quality, then of course Rist will not recommend it. But Rist knows Ibramovic will soon become an absolute workhorse for Juventus. This is a good karma, and Raiola is knowledgeable. If Rist helped, he would never have gotten the benefits he should have alone.

"Mino, I'll give it a try. But I can't guarantee whether it will succeed or not. ”

"Lister, there's nothing you can't do. I thank you in advance. (To be continued......)

PS: There is only one shift today, sorry.
