"Raphael, I'm sorry. I wasn't able to say hello to López. ”

López is Valencia's number one name and is also highly regarded under Benitez. He is still Valencia's top scorer and has scored six goals this season. In the last game, he scored a brace and sank Barcelona. Thirteen goals have been scored in eleven meetings with Barcelona.

That's the case in La Liga. The top management of such an important player did not say hello to the head coach and began to prepare for sale. If it was placed in the Premier League, if the club's top management dared to sell players like this, the manager would have made a fuss a long time ago. In the Premier League, even the managers of smaller teams would not allow clubs to ignore the authority of the manager in such a way.

However, in Spanish football, the managers who can participate in the transfer are generally the club's well-established managers. Only those managers are eligible for transfers. In most cases, the sporting director is responsible for the transfer of the club. The head coach tells the sporting director what position he wants to bring in, and the sporting director helps bring in the players in that position. There are even times when the sporting directors don't care about the manager's intentions and bring in players to the manager at will. This kind of thing completely abounds. However, Benitez grew up in La Liga and has long been used to these things.

So Benitez didn't get angry, just nodded. Although I can understand and get used to this kind of thing, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. After all, although López is not his direct player, he is also a player he relies on. Such a great player is leaving. Psychologically, of course, uncomfortable.

"Rist, I see. In fact, I already knew that Mr. Otti did not sell Lopes not only because Valencia has changed a lot this season, but more importantly, the price has not been negotiated. As long as the price is negotiated, there are no non-sale items in Valencia. ”

Benitez is usually cold and has average interpersonal relationships. But it's just his character, and he understands everything he should understand. Even people like him see it better than anyone else.

"Raphael, don't be angry. It's not that there is a saying, the old does not go, the new does not come. I have already recommended Vicente from Estrimadura to Otti. Vicente is a player you've coached, so that's not a bad compensation. ”

"Vicente. This season has really grown. ”

Vicente is not an absolute workhorse in Benitez's hands. But it's also a player that Benitez likes very much. He had just turned seventeen when he first joined Benitez. Vicente is now eighteen years old and will be nineteen next season. And by then there were already two seasons of La Liga experience.

Vicente's talent goes without saying. Benitez, who has coached Vicente, remembers Vicente's potential very well, even when Benitez spent so much time in the Real Madrid academy. However, there is no one in the Real Madrid academy who can surpass Vicente's talent.

But the only thing Vicente lacked was experience. His experience is not as good as López's. López became famous for many years. He is still the main player of the Argentine national team. He has played countless matches, big and small, and Vicente has beaten Vicente in terms of experience. A Vicente can't make up for Benitez's shortcomings. After all, López is still a goalscorer, and Vicente is inferior to López in terms of goals. They're not a type of player either.

"There's one more player. Rafael, I'd like to focus on this player. It's the most talented player I've ever taken over so far, no less talented than Ronaldo. Ronaldinho, a Brazilian player who currently plays for PSV Eindhoven. ”

Ronaldo is a benchmark in this era. All talented players will be compared to Ronaldo, as long as the talent is not much weaker than Ronaldo, then they are super talents. And Rister used no less talent than Ronaldo to describe a player, much to Benitez's surprise.

"Rafael, don't feel sad for a departing López, because the last thing that is lacking in this shijie is a talented player. I've got Ronaldinho sent you the information, so take a good look at it. ”

“xiexie。”

Benitez was grateful because he knew that without Rist's help, he wouldn't be where he is now. Since meeting Lister, Rister has relied on his connections to support Benitez. One great player after another came to Benitez. And he also helped to get Valencia to become the head coach of Valencia.

Benitez understands these things. But Benitez is a person who doesn't know how to express feelings, so he will simply express his gratitude.

"Raphael, your personality should be changed. Are you stingy with praise, those players are doing well, you should praise them more. ”

Benitez is really a person who is not good at praise. Gerrard later recounted this story when he worked with Benitez. That is, when Liverpool won a game, Gerrard, who scored a goal, walked towards Benitez. Hopefully I can get praise from Benitez because he thinks he played well in this game.

But when Gerrard walked in front of Benitez, he didn't expect Benitez not to say that it was praise, but to point out some problems in Gerrard's game with a serious face. In his recollection, Gerrard said that he was very frustrated at the time, because it was not easy to get a compliment from Benitez. This is the character of Benitez. He's not used to compliments, he's not used to communicating with players.

'My players are all young players and I need more motivation than praise for them.

Benitez disagrees with Rist. Although he thanked Lister, he did not want Lister to interfere in his own professional field. Rist did not continue to persuade him, because Benitez was now only thirty-nine years old. He is a very young manager and has his own opinions. Although Rist is an agent, the most he can do is give advice. As for how to manage the dressing room, each manager has his own set of methods. If Rist had said too much, maybe Benitez would have been upset.

"Yes. That's right for Raphael, Juander. Are you familiar with Ramos? ”

"Juand. Ramos? You're talking about Rayo Vallecano's manager? ”

Benitez spoke out immediately. After all, Juande. Although Ramos is not well-known in La Liga football, everyone in the circle knows him. He is also the head coach of La Liga clubs.

Reesette nodded. Benitez was a little puzzled that Rister Weishenme was looking for him, and Ramos is really not famous in the current La Liga football world. Ramos, who is now 45 years old, has been coaching in the Spanish second division for all these years, and is only now in La Liga with Rayo Vallecano.

"I still have some friendship with Rayo Vallecano. Me and Juander. Although Ramos is not very familiar with each other, they are all mixed in a circle and still know each other. Why do you have something to do with him? ”

Reesert nodded and said, "Someone recommended this coach to me and thought he was very strong. And I want to help him, so I want to meet him. ”

If it was the former Rist, of course, he was not qualified to help any coach. Even now in the face of those famous coaches, Rist is not qualified to say that he will help them. But like Juande. It's a different story with a coach at Ramos' level.

With the player resources and connections in the agent circle, as long as he sends a few powerful players, he can be of great help. Benitez felt this the most, so he said, "I'll get you in touch later." ”

…………

"Hello, Coach Ramos."

Juander. Although Ramos didn't know where to run later, he was famous when he was in Sevilla. He won the UEFA Cup for Sevilla for two consecutive seasons, giving Sevilla a place at the top club in the Shijie Football Confederation rankings for more than a year. At that time, Ramos was a great coach praised by the whole of European football and the whole of Shijie football.

For Ramos at that time, I don't know how many giants wanted to invite Ramos to be their head coach. However, since his successive defeats at Tottenham and Real Madrid, he has begun to completely withdraw from everyone's attention. But Rist didn't care. Ramos' most unsuccessful choice that year was Real Madrid. If he chooses any other strong team, he will not be disgraced.

As a Czech, Rist doesn't actually have much of an advantage in Spanish football. But Rist is now focusing on Spain, because Rist's current development in Spain is going well. Rist wants to keep that up to his advantage.

"Hello, Mr. Cyrny."

Ramos, who is already forty-five, is a little restrained in the face of Rist, and he looks completely unable to let go. Rist shook his head, Rist had actually investigated Ramos before.

Ramos retired early due to injury when he was young, and Ramos was only 23 years old at the time. And he has been coaching in the lower leagues for so many years, and he is already forty-five years old. So there is some inferiority in his character. Today I was very reserved in the face of Riester, and I didn't have that atmospheric feeling at all.

In fact, although Ramos is perennially in the lower leagues, his current results in Rayo Vallecano are okay. Rayo Vallecano is only a promoted team this season, but currently finished in the top 10 of La Liga.

In the face of Ramos, who is somewhat reserved, Rist does not beat around the bush. With the current strength of Lister, there is no need to talk to Ramos, and it is best to get straight to the point.

"Coach Ramos, we met for the first time today. I don't hide what I mean, I want to be able to be the agent of Coach Ramos. (To be continued......)
