284 Defection?

"David, I've spoken to Middlesbrough. Here's a copy of the contract, you see what's wrong. ”

Of the managers Rist has been exposed to, David Moyes is the youngest. But he is the most mentally minded, and even in Lister's opinion, Benitez is not as stubborn as Moyes.

Don't look at Moyes at thirty-seven, he will be thirty-eight in a few months. But he has a clear line of life planning, so much so that he has been watching Premier League clubs, and even pushed down invitations from some Premier League clubs. If it is an ordinary young coach, there is an invitation from a Premier League club that has long passed.

"You have so much faith in me."

Some of the previous questions Moyes simply didn't pay attention to. Because Moyes knows Premier League clubs well, Sunderland is the most comfortable of the three clubs that Lister has said are the best for Moyes. Sunderland's boss is rich, willing to spend, and Sunderland is the strongest. Sunderland are definitely in the top eight of the Premier League right now, and with a few changes, Moyes believes they can have the quality to challenge for a place in the UEFA Cup.

And the conditions in Middlesbrough are not bad. The strength of itself is not bad, and the club's financial situation is also stable. For David Moyes, it was a great satisfaction to be offered an offer from Middlesbrough. Therefore, he was not interested in the previous ones, and he did not understand many legal terms. Since he chose to work with Lister, he would believe Lister. He cared about whether there was a clause about his rights behind him, and of course about his salary.

Wait until he sees a clause in Zuihou, which is about the club's relegation. Somewhat surprised, asked Rist.

"I've always been a confident person. I'm not believing in you, I'm believing in myself. David, you can't afford me eight million pounds. When the time comes, I will only have to sell you to Russia to dig coal. ”

"Hehehe."

Hearing Rist's words, Moyes also smiled. But he was really surprised, he didn't expect Rist to trust him so much. In English football, who dares to put such trust in a rookie manager, David Moyes believes Rist is definitely the first.

"David, there are more than three months left in the season. How exactly you want to bring in reinforcements next season needs to be considered from now on. I've spoken to chairman Gibson and he's said he's willing to give you between Β£15 million and Β£20 million in transfer money over the summer. And his requirements for you are also simple, you should know after reading the contract. This is a 1+2 contract. As long as you can lead Middlesbrough to relegation next season. Then the contract will be automatically renewed for two years. ”

When talking to Gibson at the time, Rist was a little surprised. Although Gibson had spent more than Β£70 million on the transfer market in the previous seven seasons, it was really surprising that he had spent so much money this summer. I also like this club president who likes to hide behind the scenes.

"Fifteen million pounds in transfer fees? I've been a head coach for almost four years. The transfer fees don't add up to that fraction. ”

Moyes heard more than Β£10 million in transfer fees. There was almost a thunderbolt in his eyes. Preston is very poor. Their club's transfer fees for these four years have not combined for Β£5 million. It was under these circumstances that David Moyes led Preston North End to become a League One powerhouse and almost entered the Premier League.

"David, look. Here's my list of players for Middlesbrough. are some cheap. But very strong players. It has a lot of detailed information about them, and if you're interested in one of them, I'll send you the most up-to-date and complete information. These materials are confidential to our company, so you should keep them. ”

Rist gave Moyes a thick stack of materials. It contains information on more than 60 players, which Lister has screened for Middlesbrough's financial resources. Among them are not only the current strong players, but also some talented players who have not yet become famous.

David Moyes has done an excellent job of developing young players and has also been very good at developing the potential of those who are capable of playing a strong role. He has nurtured the likes of Wayne Rooney at Everton, as well as players like Gravison, Baines, Lescott, Marouane Fellaini, Mikel Arteta, Cahill and Jagielka, all of whom have made a name for themselves at Moyes.

Moyes simply flipped through the list of players that Lister handed him, including those he was familiar with, some had heard names, and many of them he had never heard of. There are powerful players in their twenties and fifteens, new stars who have just passed their twenties, and some young talents who are less than twenty years old. There are players from England, some from Eastern Europe, and even some from Italy, France, Germany.

From the information of these more than 60 players, Moyes can imagine the quality that Rist has. Because collecting so much information about players, it takes a very large scouting system. After all, these players include the English Premier League, English League, English League B, Bundesliga, Eredivisie, Serie A, Ligue 1, La Liga, La Liga, and La B.

Looking at these materials, Moyes is really sure that Rist's scouting system definitely exceeds that of Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and other English giants. This is not a player profile that can be done by a typical scouting system.

"Lister, this information of yours is very rare. I believe that if I had sold this material, I would have made millions of pounds to say the least. ”

For many clubs in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, their scouting systems are almost a fixture. There isn't much player profile at all. Even many clubs follow the media reporters, and the newspapers say that whoever is good, he will follow to see who is good.

Of course, there are some smart clubs that are always paying attention to the actions of the big clubs. And scouts from many big clubs will also do some part-time work, that is, recommend players to their own club first. Big clubs have high requirements for players, so the odds of being selected among the players recommended by scouts are not high.

When this happens, those scouts will recommend players to clubs they know well. This is a big channel for many small and medium-sized clubs to get player information.

As a result, the information on players currently in Lister's possession is classified. Historically, Kenyon made the move to Chelsea. It was directly with a lot of Manchester United player secrets to jump ship together. Like Robben's transfer to Chelsea, it was because Kenyon took Robben's information, and then personally came forward to get Robben's transfer. In fact, Manchester United has been talking to Robben for a long time, and Ferguson has met with Robben, and he is close to Zuihou's signing. However, Chelsea robbed Robben in the middle because of Kenyon's arrival.

This is also the case with Nigeria's talented Mikel. It was because Kenyon took away Manchester United's player information at that time that it caused the phenomenon of cutting off the beard.

"Million pounds? David, a wise man would not be scarce for this money. Your future salary should be three million pounds, five million pounds, and you will be a multi-millionaire in the future. Don't laugh at it, except if they have players you fancie. I'll send you their information shortly. ”

"I see."

Moyes is grateful to Lister. But it's not enough to say that it is moving. Because the two are in a partnership, Rist is now pushing Moyes to go up. And Moyes knew that when he succeeded, he would have to repay Rist in the same way. The benefits that the England manager gives to his agent are unimaginable to the managers of the Spanish, Italian and German leagues.

"Didi-Di-"

Lister has a lot of phone numbers on his mobile phone. Rist usually uses three telephones, one of which is the company's phone. This includes the phone numbers of the company's employees and their own players. The other phone number is to contact your family and friends. The other phone was full of phone numbers from the top of the clubs, the head coach, and some journalists. There were more than 400 phone numbers in the call. If the phone number is revealed. Many people would surely be willing to buy him at a high price.

Rist pulled out the phone and looked at it. It turned out to be Tottenham's new chairman, Daniel. Levy. Rist turned the phone and said with a smile, "Hello, Daniel. ”

"Now?"

β€œhaode。 Daniel. No, I'm in England, you don't have to go to Prague. I'll go to you and find you. Okay, zaijian. ”

Rist turned off the phone and laughed to himself. And at first it was just a slight smile, but the laughter grew louder and louder. To zuihou Lister is completely hilarious daxiao.

"Rist, what's wrong?"

Moyes looked inexplicable. Daniel, this man Moyes is not clear about who he is talking about. Because names like Daniel are all too common. Judging from the tone of the phone, the person on the other end of the phone should be in a hurry. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to go to Prague to find Rist. But it was so strange to see Lister's reaction, and Lister's smile was completely heartfelt after putting down the phone.

Rist finally stopped smiling, then looked at Moyes and said, "It's Tottenham Hotspur's new chairman Daniel. Levy's phone. Know Campbell. ”

"Thor. Campbell. ”

Moyes nodded. Who doesn't think Tottenham Hotspur captain in English football is England's main centre-back Campbell. And now it is even more exciting that Campbell has rejected Tottenham's request for a contract extension. Campbell's contract expires at the end of the season and he leaves for free. There are a lot of clubs that want Campbell now, and they are all European football giants. Clubs like Barcelona, Milan, Inter, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are all involved. It's a hot topic in English football at the moment.

"Tottenham can't keep Campbell. Look at Daniel. Levy was in a hurry. ”

A smile crossed Rist's face again. Rist knows that Campbell has defected to his sworn rivals Arsenal and has become Tottenham's biggest traitor. Even many Tottenham fans have issued death threats against Campbell. Thinking of Daniel now. Levy was anxious, and Lister was happy. Because Daniel. Levy is the main player in the London stock market, and he has a net worth of tens of millions of pounds. is a very famous figure in the London stock market.

And Tottenham backstage boss Joe. Lewis has more than two billion pounds in assets and several football clubs. But for football, Joe. Lewis and Daniel. Levy is a rookie as well. He also needed help to get into English football, and Rist was keen to stick to it. After all, Tottenham is also a big club in England, and it will be more bold than Arsenal in the transfer market in the next decade. It's just that there have been no good opportunities. The two are a little friendly, but not very close yet.

Only when things like this happen now, Daniel. Levy will look for himself in a hurry. Also seen Daniel. Levy is indeed lacking connections in English football at the moment, so he will find Lister here. It's a great opportunity for Rist and Tottenham to work together perfectly. So of course Rist was very pleased.

Moyes next to him didn't understand that Rist Weishenme was so happy, but Moyes didn't ask either. Instead, he lowered his head and flipped through the player profile that Lister had handed him.

"David, feel free to come to me if you have anything. I have a trip to London on my business. But I guess I'll be in England for a while. ”

"Yes, Rist. You're busy, don't worry about me. I have three or four months to think about it anyway. (To be continued......)
