Chapter 65: The Top Football Agent
In the match between Chelsea and Everton in the English Premier League, after England's talented striker Owen was broken by the opponent's defender Lee, the media and fans condemned the violent kicking, and the topic of broken legs in football history has once again become a hot topic. On November 9, the British media "Daily Mail" selected the 10 most shocking leg breaks in football.
The first of these came in April 1996 when Coventry City challenged Manchester United at Old Trafford. Coventry City defender Buster was caught in a flying tackle by Manchester United stars McClair and Irwin, and Buster was splattered with blood on the spot, and his right leg was almost completely broken. The game was interrupted for 15 minutes. According to reports, Manchester United's legendary goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, who witnessed the bloody moment up close, vomited on the spot, and although Baster underwent 26 surgeries for it, he was still injured and had to say goodbye to the field early.
The second is in 2000, Aston Villa forward Luke Nix collided with the opposing goalkeeper Richard Wright in the attack, as a result of which the Knicks suffered a serious fracture in his right leg, after 4 months of recuperation, the injury repeatedly worsened, and there was no hope of returning to the game, and he was forced to announce his retirement.
The third is the tragic case of a broken leg that happened only a month ago. At that time, Liverpool played against Blackburn, and the talented French striker Cisse who played for Liverpool, seemed to have drunk too little milk when he was young, a little calcium deficiency, and fractured his left leg in a not violent collision, and almost suffered the bad luck of early retirement.
4th place...... It was the same scene that happened in the Chelsea and Everton game.
Owen's injury strengthened Jovan's belief that he wanted to do a big job in the winter, and he even went directly to the club's owner, Abramovich, but unfortunately he went back to Russia to rectify the company's internal affairs, so he had no choice but to retreat and find the club's CEO Kenyon.
"In the winter transfer market, I need Β£100 million in transfer funds!" Qiao Wan didn't talk nonsense, and after knocking on the door, he got straight to the point.
Kenyon was drinking coffee and reading the newspaper, when he heard this, he almost spewed out: "This Joe cannon." It's 100 million pounds, this is a football club, not a money printing factory! β
Of course, Kenyon didn't dare to say this, he hesitated for a while, and nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm...... Owen has been badly injured and will not play for several months, and he does need to add a top striker. β
Qiao Wan waved his hand: "This is just one aspect, the depth of the team's bench is too poor now, and it is difficult to meet the huge pressure of the fourth-line battle." The transfer market in winter...... I'm going to bring in five, maybe six players. β
"Huh?" Kenyon was stunned for a moment, and seeing Qiao Wanxian's determined appearance, he hesitated and said: "In principle, I support all your work, especially now that the team has achieved such brilliant results, the club should support you more unconditionally." It's just that this money ...... It also needs to be paid in advance by the owner, and the club obviously does not have such a huge amount. β
Qiao Wan nodded idly: "I know, you will convince him." β
Kenyon looked embarrassed and said, "I'll do my best...... Oh yes, Wan Xian, your renewal ......"
Qiao Wanxian waved his hand: "You talk to my agent about the renewal of the contract, I only care about football and don't want to be distracted." With that, he turned around and left.
Kenyon looked helpless: "At the beginning, I really shouldn't have helped you contact the agent, this is not asking for trouble." That cold Ye Xuan, as soon as she negotiated, the cold aura pressed over, it was simply breathless, especially when she insisted on the sky-high price of 15 million pounds, which was simply incredible! β
Leaving Kenyon's office, the corners of Qiao Wanxian's mouth hooked up a smile, it seems that Ye Xuan's agent is really good, and he can make a negotiator like Kenyon deflated, but it is really a bit of the shadow of Mendes, the agent who was popular in Europe in later generations.
Driving a Lamborghini, Jovin went to the Cobham training base and found that the players had all arrived, and under the guidance of Boas, they were doing simple warm-up exercises.
Because there is only one day between them, they will go to Newcastle tomorrow to prepare for the fourth round of the League Cup against Newcastle United, so Qiao Wanxian just arranged for Boas to lead the team for simple physical recovery training.
Watching more than 20 players jogging and laughing on the training ground, especially the awe-inspiring eyes they looked at themselves, Qiao Wanxian on the sidelines had a sense of happiness.
Suddenly, Rooney lay on Kaka's shoulder, and for a while, Kaka's face was a little shy, and he ran to Boas's side.
Qiao Wan raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Rooney, come here!" β
"Huh?" Rooney's smile suddenly froze, Terry, Ramos, Kaka, Johnson, these more well-connected friends are all bowing their heads and snickering, this stupid Rooney, this time, right?
Rooney swallowed his saliva, as if rushing to the execution ground, came to Qiao Wanxian with a bitter face, lowered his head and whispered: "Boss, I was wrong......"
"I didn't admit that you were mistaken!" Qiao Wanxian pulled Rooney to the seat on the sidelines and sat down, and whispered: "What kind of joke you told, so happy, tell me about it!" β
"Huh?" Rooney's face was stunned, and then he turned his worries into joy, and said happily: "Boss, you are so great!" β
"Less sycophants!" Qiao Wanxian rolled his eyes.
Rooney grinned and said, "Boss, you don't know, last night, I was at the door of the London hotel, and I saw Kaka and Kelly Brooke appear in pairs. That Brazilian, who looks quite shy, is actually sullen, there is a fiancΓ©e in Brazil, and there is a sexy stunner in England as a lover, tsk...... It's a day of ecstasy! β
"Kelly Brooke? The woman who claims to be the sexiest woman in Britain for nearly fifty years? β
"Yes, that's her. Boss, in my opinion, Kaka's skills are no less than yours, there are two women next to you, and the same is true for him! Rooney is not yet twenty, and he is still a little green when he speaks, and his eyebrows are dancing, which is ridiculous.
Qiao Wan pouted: "Compare with me?" Look at him like that, if he steps on two boats, sooner or later the boat will capsize! And I'm different, I'm an aircraft carrier, how can I turn over? β
"Haha, boss, you're funny." Wayne Rooney's loud laugh drew the attention of the players on the training pitch, what was going on? Rooney, this kid was stupid by the leader, right?
Qiao Wan waved his hand, lowered his voice and said, "Okay, don't joke with you, I'll tell you something serious." Your broker...... It's called Strayford, right? β
Rooney was taken aback: "yes, what's wrong?" β
Qiao Wanxian frowned: "That's an insatiable villain!" Heard...... Does he want to take a 20% commission from your earnings? β
Rooney's face was gloomy, and he nodded helplessly: "Yes, I was young and ignorant before, and an agent was willing to recommend me, so it's too late to be happy, how can I refuse, just ...... I signed a 10-year employment contract with him. β
Qiao Wanxian's face was shocked: "Terminate the contract with him!" β
"Huh?" Rooney was stunned, shook his head again and again, and said: "He won't agree, and since I came to the boss's hand, my performance has been getting better and better, and my income is definitely getting higher and higher, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to make a lot of money." β
"Forcibly terminate the contract, it really can't work, just sue him to court! A 10-year contract is inherently illegal, and there is no legal benefit at all! Of course, Qiao Wanxian doesn't understand the law, and the reason why he dares to say it so definitely is that in his previous life, in 2008, Rooney chose to break with Stredford when he couldn't bear it. Strayford and his company took Rooney to court, and Rooney won.
"Huh?" Rooney was shocked by Qiao Wanxian's thunderous means and looked at him in a daze.
Qiao Wanxian said firmly: "This matter is so decided, I will find you an agent, the ability to guarantee is very strong, and the price is fair!" β
"Boss, is this going to work?"
"You don't believe me?"
"Faith!" Rooney smiled.
Back at the mansion, the home is relatively deserted. Cheryl is singing again, and Lucy is gradually becoming famous, going to Manchester to take pictures for a magazine. Only Ye Xuan is watching a TV series, a Chinese film, it turned out to be "Meteor Garden"!
Qiao Wanxian laughed dumbly, and after hearing the voice, Ye Xuan turned his head to look, a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face, and he quickly changed to BBC TV to watch a talk show.
Qiao Wan smiled idly, came to the sofa and sat down, and said proudly: "Ye Xuan, I pulled another deal for you!" β
"Buying and selling? What to buy and sell? When Ye Xuan and Qiao Wan were idle, the cold aura had converged a lot, although there was still a hint of chill, Qiao Wanxian no longer minded.
Qiao Wan crossed Erlang's legs, saw another glass of juice on the coffee table, and no matter whose it was, he picked it up and drank it: "I asked Rooney to fire his agent, you go and be his agent." β
"I'm not going, stinky man!" Ye Xuan, as Qiao Wanxian's agent, has now paid attention to the trends of European football in an all-round way, and Rooney has had a lot of lace news recently, which makes her very dissatisfied.
Qiao Wanxian was a little embarrassed, touched his nose and said, "Ye Xuan, don't be in a hurry to refuse first." The players I recommend to you are all future Shijie Footballers! Don't you want to be the agent of Mr. Shijie? β
"Huh? What do you mean by that? Ye Xuan was stunned.
Qiao Wanxian smiled and said conceitedly: "In the future, I will use my own energy to recommend players with the potential of Shijie Footballer for you." Hehe, do you want to be the top football agent in Europe? β
"The best football agent?" Ye Xuan was a little touched.
"High income is one thing, and fame is the most important thing!" Qiao Wanxian seemed to see a beautiful picture of the future, and said longingly: "Think about it, in a few years, countless excellent players want me to be their head coach, and countless excellent players want you to be their agent!" Made in heaven, a perfect match, a perfect match! β
Ye Xuan's body trembled slightly, gave Qiao Wan a fierce look, got up and went upstairs, vaguely worried about something in his heart, and looked back and said coldly: "Tell that stinky Rooney, let me be his agent, but you can't think cranky and mess with your mind!" Otherwise...... I castrated him! β
Qiao Wanxian felt a "chuckle" in his heart, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and his face turned red. He understood that Ye Xuan was talking about Rooney, and he was warning himself......
