"Peter, this is a challenge."

Rist has been in a good mood lately. This time it didn't have much to do with Lister, who had completely picked up a big bargain. The real big bargain, Rist is really a sandpiper clam competing for profits among several South American brokers and predators.

In fact, this time it was all pushed by someone. Rist hadn't been in contact with it, but he knew that it had to be Figer. Although it was Mascaldi who advocated it at first, how could Mascadi and Ribeiro work so hard without the support and push of Figer. In fact, it was all Figer who played a trick to suppress Ribeiro in Brazilian football.

But Rist didn't lose anything and began to stick his hands in Brazilian football. Ribeiro seems to have given Rister only the image rights of the players, and only the image rights of Asia and Europe. But this part is definitely a very large right. Because at present, most of the endorsement income of many players is in Europe and Asia.

South America is now in a downturn, an economic downturn. Therefore, the South American market is far inferior to the established market in Europe and the emerging large market in Asia. Therefore, Lister can be said to have directly obtained the commercial market for Ribeiro players. Brokers have a lot of influence, but Rist has a lot of influence in their business interests. And not the influence in general.

And once Ribeiro's players get more benefits, then it will give South American players an example. A lot of players would be willing to work with Rist. At that time, Riester's influence in Brazilian football will continue to grow.

Figer hits Ribeiro, and Ribeiro is even harder. Because I saw that Figel had a tendency to suppress himself. Ribeiro brought Rister directly to Brazilian football. Ribeiro has once again reverted to the cautious form he had seen under Figer. Although Ribeiro is developing fast, he is still not as good as Figer in Brazilian football. Ribeiro wants to get Rister into Brazilian football and then take on Figer so that he can pick up the middle.

Rist knew exactly what they were thinking, but Rist didn't hesitate. Such good things are wrong, and it is estimated that even God will not forgive Rister. Rist's entry into Brazilian football never envisioned himself as the new Figer, as that is no longer allowed. Rister only chooses one or two Brazilian players to join his team, and most of the rest is just working with Brazilian agents. That's the way to go the long way.

After ten years of rapid development, although not much publicity, Riester has become a behemoth in European football. A behemoth that can even compete with some of Europe's biggest clubs. It's just that Rist is too low-key. So it's not as conspicuous as Figer, Mascaldy, and Stretford back then.

The shili of Lister has developed to the present. What Rist needs now is no longer to be brave and diligent. What Rist needs now is to get his big ship through the past few years. Because Rist has developed too fast in recent years, although Rist's foundation is very strong, there will still be loopholes. So what Rist has to do now is to be smooth, to make the big ship more and more stable. Wait until a few years have been smooth. There is no one in European football who can bring down Lister. Some institutions including FIFA, UEFA.

If you want to be stable, you can't offend people too much. All Rist has to do now is continue to expand his network. Work with more brokers. Rather than continuing to include players in their own company. Then it is easy to pull hatred. So Lister happily accepted Ribeiro's request.

Just when Rist was very happy, he received an invitation from Kenyon. Kenyon disappeared from the public eye for nearly three months. Since Kenyon left Manchester United, he has lived a life of seclusion. Mainly to not irritate Manchester United. I am also reluctant to give the media more topics.

"I love a challenge. I went to Umbro and then from Umbro to Manchester United, and now Manchester United to Chelsea. ”

Kenyon was arrogant. His tone sounded flat, and there was no arrogant expression, but what he said made Rist feel very arrogant, or he had absolute confidence in himself. Of course, Kenyon is qualified to be arrogant. As the CEO of Umbro that year, he built Umbro into the No. 1 sports brand in England, and Umbro was still quite popular at the beginning.

Then came Manchester United, where he built the club into the number one European club in terms of commercial ability. In Kenyon's hands, Manchester United's commercial income has reached a staggering figure. Now he has made the switch from Manchester United to Chelsea. Chelsea is an upstart, and how to build an upstart like Chelsea into an influential team in a short period of time is his next step.

"I believe in you. But Peter, what are you looking for me? ”

Kenyon is yet to take over at Chelsea, although he left United a few months ago. Of course, Lister didn't interfere in the matter of his departure from Manchester United, after all, it was poaching Manchester United's CEO. It will offend Manchester United.

"Lister, in fact, it should be Coach Ranieri and me today. But Chelsea have a game today, so I'm just here to see you. ”

"It's all the same. Let's just say something. ”

Rist and Kenyon are more familiar. The two have known each other for more than five years and have worked together many times. It's not just the transfer of players, it's about some other aspects of cooperation. So it's also straight.

"Lister, you are familiar with Robben's father in Eindhoven."

"Yes."

Like many talented players, Robben showed a talent for defying the sky from an early age. So at a very young age, many Dutch agents approached him, but Robben's father always protected him, and later became Robben's agent. Therefore, Lister did not beat Robben's idea. However, since Robben came to Eindhoven, Lister has handled the relationship with Robben's father very well. Even Robben's current image rights are taken care of by Liester.

'Chelsea want to bring in Arjen Robben.

Listening to Kenyon's words, Rist didn't answer directly. Historically, it has been Kenyon and Ranieri who have made Robben's transfer. I didn't expect them to start moving in the winter. Ranieri has not had much success in his coaching career. And the results in Atletico Madrid and Valencia were too poor, and they were bombarded. But for Chelsea his contribution is okay.

Because many of the iron-blooded Blues led by Mourinho were handled by Ranieri. This is true for Frank Lampard, Joe Cole, Arjen Robben, Duff, Petr Cech and Claude Makelele. And Terry was also promoted by Ranieri. Although there are a lot of parallel goods bought, they have also left a lot of good players for Chelsea.

Now it seems that he wants to get rid of Robben, who is popular in the Eredivisie football. Rist knows that Manchester United and Robben's father are already talking about it. Ferguson has even met Robben's father, leaving Zuihou to sign.

Although Lister is not involved, Rister knows that Ferguson has not been very happy with Manchester United's squad lately. In particular, the 92 generation, which once swept the Premier League, is starting to age, and Ferguson needs to find a replacement for them. Beckham left and Ferguson found Joaquin for him. Giggs's form has been up and down in the past two years, and the replacement player Ferguson found for Giggs is Robben.

"You want me to pull the strings?"

Rist asked Kenyon as he spoke. But he shook his head without waiting for Kenyon to answer. "Peter, I can't help with this. I'm different from you, I still work with Manchester United. I don't dare provoke Ferguson. ”

Rist can offend a lot of people, but he definitely won't offend Alex Ferguson in the Premier League. Ferguson is the big guy. A real big guy. At Manchester United, he pretty much said yes. Even if it's a fight with Manchester United's majority shareholder. Nor does it affect his status at Manchester United. Manchester United's transfer is a real one-man deal, and no one dares to say anything.

If Rist dares to help Chelsea steal the player Manchester United likes, especially the player that Ferguson has high hopes for. Then Rist would surely die. This kind of thing seems secret, but where is there a real secret on shijie. As long as Rist is involved, then United will know. Alex Ferguson is a man of few rules and likes to make friends in English football. But Ferguson is also not as broad-minded as he imagined, and if Lister offends him, Vanney and Joaquin will be purged. Ferguson is not a coach with just one or two players. When you purge a player, you don't give face to anyone.

Seeing Rist's direct refusal, Kenyon was stunned for a moment. At this time, how many agents want to be linked to Chelsea. Superstar-level players are hesitant to pay a high salary because they don't see the future of Chelsea clearly. But agents are different, agents all want to be able to get in touch with nouveau riche like Chelsea, so that they can make money.

"Rist, we ......"

"Peter, you have to understand me. Aljan is a player that Ferguson values very much, and I will not get involved. ”

Rist is to the point. Kenyon's move from Manchester United to Chelsea has left the current relationship between Manchester United and Chelsea very strained. At this time, Lister will not add fuel to the fire.

"Well, okay."

Kenyon could only nod. Looking at Kenyon's appearance, Rist said: "What Arjan's father is most anxious about is the future of Arjan more than money. Peter, you and Coach Ranieri really want to bring in Arjan, you can go to their house together and convince him. In addition to the advantage of money, you also need to show more sincerity than Coach Alex Ferguson, so that you can rob Aljan from it. ”

Rist doesn't want to offend Manchester United, but he doesn't want any conflict with Chelsea, after all, Chelsea is the owner of the money, the real money. So I gave Kenyon a brief point. Although Kenyon has completed commercial miracles at Eston and Manchester United, he has rarely excelled in player transfers. At Manchester United, the transfer negotiations were not very good, and even received huge criticism.

Rist gives him a chance, or rather, a hint. Tell him how to get Robben and not do what he did when he was negotiating players at Manchester United. If he doesn't change his negotiation strategy, then he will definitely not be able to take Robben.

“xiexie。”

Kenyon understood what Rist meant. Seeing that Rist didn't want to help, Kenyon sighed slightly. However, he quickly changed the subject and said, "Lister, there is one more thing. Peter. Cech, your player. ”

"Peter, he's not cheap."

Cech was the best goalkeeper in the Premier League when he was at Everton and has been even better this season at Tottenham. It should be said that Cech is getting more and more comfortable in the Premier League, and Tottenham have been doing well this season. In terms of form this season, the one who can compare with Cech in the Premier League is Arsenal's Lehmann. In the summer of '03, Cech was a goalkeeper with tens of millions of pounds, and the transfer fee should be higher after this season. After all, that's Tottenham's current main goalkeeper.

"Lister, you know. The last thing Chelsea lack is money. ”

"That's fine."

Kenyon actually had some concerns. After all, Cech has been outstanding in the Premier League for two consecutive seasons and is likely to be the Premier League's best goalkeeper again. Such players definitely want to join the giants. At present, Manchester United and Liverpool are lacking good goalkeepers, and even Barcelona and Inter Milan are looking for a good goalkeeper. Chelsea still have a lot to do in this regard. I didn't expect Rist to agree so happily.

"Peter, you can talk to Arneson. If the transfer with Tottenham is settled, then come to me. (To be continued......)
