592 Booming transfer market(1)
"Florentino is crazy."
Carvajal has always been the agent most closely associated with Real Madrid. At his peak, half of Real Madrid's players were his players, and at his peak, he was able to sit on an equal footing with the president of Real Madrid.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that he himself has a deep relationship with Sans. Although Raul did not start in the Senz era, it was when Sanz was president that he really became a Spanish superstar, and he also became the representative star of Real Madrid. In the era of Sans, Carvajal relied on Raul to recruit a large number of local Spanish stars. Salgado, Casillas, Morientes, and then also influenced Elgra and Guti through Raul, becoming the well-deserved first agent of Real Madrid at that time.
Florentino is trying to suppress Carvajal because of his influence in Real Madrid. But Carvajal is stiff and still strong at Real Madrid. By Calderón's time, Carvajal didn't even take Calderón seriously.
For so many years, more than ten years, he has been at Real Madrid. But this time Florentino's actions still scared Carvajal. He's never seen such a crazy transfer.
Introduced Kaka, Cristiano. After Ronaldo and Ribery, Florentino did not stop his pace of reinforcements at all. The fourth star to follow is Liverpool's midfield core Xavi. Alonso.
Alonso has performed well for Liverpool over the years, winning quite a few titles with Rafael Benitez. With Benitez leaving Liverpool this summer, there has been growing turmoil within Liverpool. Alonso is also ready to leave Liverpool. At this time, Real Madrid came, and of course Alonso didn't say a word. Real Madrid brought in Xavi for 30 million euros. Alonso.
Florentino didn't just bring in superstars, he also said he wanted to Spanish Real Madrid. Therefore, Albiol, Arbeloa, Granero, Negredo and other local Spanish stars have been introduced one after another. Many of the players were academy players that Real Madrid had sold and brought them back to Real Madrid with a buyback clause.
There are more players brought in, and of course Florentino has to clean up the original Real Madrid players. Real Madrid has always been like this, once a son of heaven and a courtier. Real Madrid has a new president, of course, to leave its own mark. And the players left by the previous president basically have to be cleaned up, no matter how strong you are, the new president will clean you up, this is the tradition of Real Madrid.
There are a lot of stars that Real Madrid have to purge now. Including Lister's player Ruud van Nistelrooy. Sneijder and Robben, who were just brought in last summer. As well as Pepe, Marcelo, Higuain, and Saviola, they are all on Florentino's purge. Of course, just because you're on the list doesn't mean it's all cleaned all at once. It's just that none of these people are Florentino's cup of tea at the moment.
Rister currently has three players at Real Madrid, and if you add Ribery to join, it will be four. Among them, Fanny is definitely going to be cleaned, and Joaquin is not bad. Dominate the local players. So it's not too dangerous right now. And Russ. Diarra is a midfielder. The defense is good, and you can stay for a while to investigate.
The recruitment is crazy, and Real Madrid's purge is just as crazy. So many stars to be purged. Florentino also didn't have that much emptiness. Carvajal's relationship with Florentino is not very close, but after all, he has a close relationship with Real Madrid. And he has enough ability and connections in all aspects, so this Real Madrid purge has something to do with him.
"There will never be a man like Florentino in European football again. Real Madrid has this person as president, and I don't know if it is fortunate or unfortunate. ”
For Florentino's madness, Lister said that it was difficult to evaluate it. Anyway, until Rist came to this plane, Rist didn't see the success of the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship. However, there is no doubt that Florentino has made the horse the most concerned and commercially capable person in the world.
"Lister, Ruud van Nistelrooy needs to find a new team. You can do it. ”
Ruud van Nistelrooy's salary at Real Madrid is not low, and Raul has an annual salary of 6 million euros after tax. Florentino was very aggressive this time, spending more than 220 million euros on the transfer fee alone. Coupled with agent commissions, player signing fees, etc., Real Madrid spent 300 million euros this summer, to say the least. And the stars introduced are all high salaries. Just as Kaka's annual salary after tax reached more than 11 million euros, Cristiano. Ronaldo and Franck Ribery also earn nine million euros a year after tax. And Harvey. Alonso's annual salary after tax is €4.5 million.
Real Madrid is, after all, a club, not a bank. Although Real Madrid has the support of the Spanish royal family and government behind it, it is impossible for Real Madrid to spend money uncontrollably. With so much money spent this summer, salaries will skyrocket, even Real Madrid can't stand it. As a result, Florentino can only clean up some of the high-paid players. Ruud van Nistelrooy is the player who fits the most. The salary is high, the age is old, and it is also a player brought in by Calderón.
"Gines, how much does Real Madrid want? Ruud is already thirty-two years old, and Real Madrid can't ask for a high price. How about just letting him transfer freely? ”
"Free? How dare you say it, Lister. Ruud van Nistelrooy scored more than 50 goals in two seasons at Real Madrid, even in games that were injured last season and played more than two months without injury. You say such a striker is on a free transfer? ”
Carvajal looked at Rist and shook his head helplessly. Vanney is thirty-two years old, and is somewhat old. But Ruud van Nistelrooy has maintained his form well and has a high goal percentage at Real Madrid. Even if Real Madrid wants to purge Ruud van Nistelrooy, it can't be said that the horse will be transferred for free.
"Hehe, Ginnes. Look at Florentino's handiwork, how much money was spent on buying players. He still lacks millions of euros. Florentino is now in a hurry to get rid of Ruud's high salary, and I'm sure he'll agree. ”
It's not that Rist lacks that money. Instead, Rist wants to get the best contract for Vanney, because this transfer may be the last contract for Vanney. So if you want a good contract, of course, you need a free transfer. It is Real Madrid who are in a hurry now because they want to get rid of Ruud van Nistelrooy's high salary. Ruud van Nistelrooy has two years left on his contract with Real Madrid, with whom Rister signed a four-year contract. In two years that's 12 million euros, plus taxes, that's more than 16 million euros. Rist believes Real Madrid can figure it out. Real Madrid has always been expensive to buy players, and once the players are cleaned, they are very cheap.
"Lister, you've made so much money this summer, and you still care about it."
"I don't care, but Ruud does."
Carvajal nodded. Rist's net worth has been accumulating faster and faster in recent years, like last year, Rist's income was nearly 60 million euros. So far this year, Rist's income has exceeded 80 million euros, and it is not impossible to earn more than 100 million euros in player transfers this summer.
Rist's ability to make money in European football is something that all agents in European football admire. It's true that Rist doesn't care about a little bit of money, but it's not a small amount for Vanney.
"Okay, I'll talk to Jorge."
That's what Real Madrid is like with the transfer. In the past, when Figo was transferred, it was a free transfer, Carlos was also a free transfer, and Ronaldo's transfer was only 7.5 million euros. It is no surprise that Ruud van Nistelrooy has asked for a free transfer.
"What's this. Ginés and Florentino's purge must all be low-cost transfers. The big teams in European football are probably overjoyed. ”
Real Madrid have never lacked good players. Now the players that Real Madrid wants to purge are all real powerful players, but Real Madrid still needs to be purged. And the transfer fee is certainly not high at all, and those clubs must be happy.
"It's not just us who are purging the players, but Barcelona is also purging the players."
Real Madrid and Barcelona have both changed a lot this summer. Real Madrid has changed its president, and Barcelona has changed its coach. The purge on Barcelona's side was also severe, including Zambrotta, Edmilson, Doss. Santos, Deco, Oleg are all on the purge.
"Very good. They don't buy players, they don't purge players, how can people like us make money. ”
This summer Riester was the happiest. Several big giants are in chaos, and the nouveau riche Manchester City is also a big purchase. Only in such an environment can brokers continue to make money. Now that the transfer market has just opened, Rist's income has now exceeded more than 80 million euros, which is the first time that Rister has had such a high income since he became an agent.
"Yes."
"But I didn't expect Mourinho to come to Real Madrid."
"Huh."
Carvajal could only smile wryly. When Mourinho was going to Barcelona, Rist was very dissatisfied. It took a little trick to prevent Mourinho from becoming the manager of Barcelona. But who would have thought that he would become the head coach of Real Madrid as soon as he turned around.
Mendes, the agent, has been guarded against by Carvajal, but he didn't expect this guy to come to Real Madrid again. Carvajal is more vigilant.
"How's that, Genes. How about giving me a share of the players that Real Madrid want to clean? ”
"No problem."
Don't look at it as just cleaning up the players, it's also a great opportunity for Rist. Because the players that Real Madrid wants to clean up are all powerful players, Rister will be able to get more contacts by helping to pull the strings. Although such a transfer is not a lot of money for Lister, nothing is rich. But for Lister's network, it is much more beneficial for Lister's future development.
As for Carvajal, he doesn't care. No matter how he clears out these players, he can get his own part. And as long as it is sold, Florentino will have to admit it.
"In that case, it looks like I'm going to be busy." (To be continued......)
