"Lister, we don't have any intention of investing in this."

Daniel. Levy shook his head as he looked at the report that Rist had sent. Then he smiled at Rist and said, "Lister, you don't know Joe. Joe is not a fan, he invests in football because he is bullish on football stocks. It's just that he hasn't made any money over the years, and he's starting to get a little discouraged. And you also know that we didn't have a good relationship with UEFA some time ago. ”

Rist wanted to buy Chile's Colo Colo Club, but the burden of more than $20 million alone felt too heavy. What's more, Rist is an agent and a layman when it comes to how to manage a club, and Rist has never thought of managing a club himself. So Lister wanted to find a collaborator, and after thinking about it for a long time, Lister set his sights on Tottenham chairman Daniel. Levy.

Mainly because of Daniel. Levy and Joe. Lewis now controls six clubs in Europe. Last year, when Slavia Prague and AEK Athens both made it to the League Cup, many people were suspicious of Joe. Lewis: They're going to have a game of operation. So UEFA is investigating Joe. Lewis and Daniel. Levy's sports company. At the time, UEFA was asking them to recuse themselves, or to withdraw from the club's control. Because after the UEFA investigation found that Joe. Lewis and Daniel. Levy controls six clubs that have the ability to qualify for the UEFA Cup or Champions League. If we meet in the Champions League and the UEFA Cup, will there be a manipulation of the game? So UEFA is hoping for Joe. Lewis: They hurriedly sold the shares.

But Daniel. Levy and Joe. Lewis didn't heed UEFA's warnings at all. They believe that they are just normal economic actions and will not interfere with the normal conduct of the game for these reasons. If UEFA punishes them for these things. They will take it to the Court of Justice of the European Union. In fact, the two sides are fighting a war of words, and no one has actually taken action.

UEFA, as aggressive as it may seem, doesn't want anything to happen. As a result, Slavia Prague and AEK Athens were placed in separate groups, and neither team was able to emerge from the group. The so-called punishment is nothing more than scaring and scaring people. After all, Joe. Lewis and Daniel. Levy was a figure with a head and face in England, like Joe. Lewis was England's richest man. In a lawsuit with such a rich man, UEFA is not absolutely sure. And if they lose the case, UEFA will lose face, so they are just warning them.

Same Daniel. The same goes for Levy. Unless they don't want to mess up in European football, they won't actually take UEFA to the EU courts. Even if they win, UEFA loses for them. Because UEFA will certainly not let you have a good time.

So the two sides have just been playing a war of words for a few months, what should they do or what they should do. Daniel. Levy officially made a shrunken turtle at this time. Hopefully, UEFA and the media will quickly forget about it. But that's exactly what happened. Rist will find Daniel. Levy. And only Daniel. A bold man like Levy would have teamed up with Rist.

"Daniel, do you know what makes Tottenham different from other big clubs in Europe? Is it what Tottenham lacks if they want to be one of those big clubs? ”

Daniel is also considered a rich man, after all, he has enough assets. And he was the buddy who called for wind and rain in the London stock market at the beginning, and many rich people at that time let Daniel . Levy manages his assets. Hence Daniel. Levy is well-connected in the wealthy circle. Lots of acquaintances. But none of this has anything to do with football.

Daniel. Levy became president of the club for the first time. I still don't know much about the operation of the club. And there is a lack of connections within football.

"Heritage?"

Daniel. Levy thought for a moment and spoke his opinion.

"Haha."

Rist hahadaxiao. Then he said: "Daniel, this kind of thing is fooled by those wealthy families, how can someone as smart as you believe it." The foundation can not be eaten as a meal. What is the background of Atletico Madrid in La Liga. is known as the third giants in La Liga, and has been hanging out in the Spanish second division for two years. And Liverpool, the number one giant in England, how many clubs can compare with him in European football? But more than a decade since the Premier League was founded, Liverpool haven't even won a Premier League trophy. Heritage, what is the essence? ”

"The essence is to show the glory of the ancestors, and it is useless. Before Alex Ferguson took over United, there were only seven top-flight titles, but how are the Reds doing now? Before Arsene Wenger took over Arsenal, was there any difference between Arsenal's influence and Everton and Villa? But look at Arsenal's influence in the Shijie range right now. The results are done out, the background? Hehe. ”

In fact, Tottenham has a lot of heritage, and it is a traditional powerhouse in English football. The likes of Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton, and Villa are all due to his excellent league results, while Tottenham Hotspur is the famous cup king of English football. At a time when the FA Cup can be compared to the top flight titles, Tottenham Hotspur is the king of the biggest cup competitions in English football. At that time, Tottenham's position was not much worse than that of its city rivals Arsenal.

It's a pity that there have been no good results for more than ten years, and the status of the FA Cup is getting lower and lower, resulting in the lack of confidence in Tottenham now. People don't care how important the FA Cup was now, and fans now just see that Tottenham don't have a few top-flight titles, so they don't take him seriously.

"So what do you think it is?"

"Strength."

Rist replied in the affirmative, but let Daniel. Levy's face twitched as Rist was utter nonsense. However, Rist continued: "Ferguson's Manchester United have enough connections in England and claim that Manchester United has a lot of contact with the team. It's not an unfair competition, it's the strength of Alex Ferguson's Manchester United in English football. Arsene Wenger's Arsenal has the most extensive connections in France and can bring in a large number of high-quality and inexpensive stars from France. What does Tottenham have? ”

Listen to Lister, Daniel. Levy nodded. He also understood what Rist meant. European giants all have their own characteristics, such as the Bundesliga hegemony Bayern Munich, which is the temple in the hearts of German domestic players. Barcelona is inextricably linked to Dutch football, and Juventus is one of the most desirable clubs for local players in Italy. These giants all have their own connections and their own channels for recruitment. This is all invisible strength, in fact, on the other hand, it is also the attraction brought by the heritage.

"Daniel, Tottenham's domestic appeal in England is inherently insufficient, and the departure of Campbell in particular has accelerated this process. And on the outside, what does Tottenham have to do with French football, and what is the relationship with Dutch football? Or do Tottenham have a lot of connections with South American football and African football? No, nothing. Any big club has enough agents to help them do this, but what about Tottenham? ”

Rist hadn't actually said a thing yet. That's Tottenham boss Joe. Lewis and Daniel. Levy was all Jewish. It is true that Jews are not a minority among the rich people in Europe, but although Jews are very powerful, their image is really not very good. Because the former chairman of Tottenham Hotspur, Sugar, is also Jewish, and Tottenham has a lot of ties with Jews in history. Therefore, when many English football people talk about Tottenham, they say that Tottenham is a "Jewish club".

If Tottenham were to spend as much as Chelsea later, no one would care about the money. But Tottenham don't have the financial strength of Chelsea.

"So what do you mean?"

"I'm a layman running a football club and you have plenty of experience in that. But in terms of understanding the players, judging the players, and perfecting the scouting system, Tottenham is definitely not as good as me. So I think if the two of us work together, we can make Colo Colo a South American giant. I offer a list of outstanding South American talents, and you are in charge of managing the club. Not only can we build Colo Colo FC into a South American giant, but with this fortress, Tottenham will no longer have to worry about player resources in the future. You can continue to increase Tottenham's quality so that Tottenham can compete with Manchester United and Arsenal. I can use player transfers to earn enough commissions. ”

Rist is slowly seducing Daniel. Levy. As long as Daniel. Levy is willing, the cooperation between the two is really a strong combination. Rist can send a lot of South American talent to Colo Colo and then let Colo Colo develop them. When they become famous, you can send them to Europe. If Tottenham cooperate, then Colo Colo is like a partner club of Tottenham, and their players will of course give priority to Tottenham.

Daniel. Levy is a shrewd businessman, but he is still not used to some of the ways in which football works when he first becomes the president of a football club. Daniel. Levy weighs Rist's advice to see if it will really work in his favor.

"Rist, I'm going to think about it. And I'm going to have to talk to Joe about it. ”

Zuihou Daniel. Levy said slowly. Although the amount is not very large, it is just over 20 million dollars. Rist himself will contribute some of the money, so Zuihou is only more than 10 million dollars. But after all, Tottenham's biggest shareholder is not Daniel. Levy, but Joe. Lewis. If you work with Rist, then this is definitely a major investment move for Tottenham. He needs to be cautious.

"Daniel, no problem. Since we are cooperating, of course, we need your affection and me. But I hope you can decide quickly, because the Chilean side has been pushing a lot of things lately. ”

The Colo Colo club has already reached the stage of zuihou. Their top brass couldn't hold on because the creditors took the club to court. They were all waiting for Rist's money to save their lives, and if Rister didn't pay again, their club would really go bankrupt.

"I understand, Riester. I'll get back to you as soon as I can. (To be continued......)
