553 Why is it different from history
"Fernando, good job. The Bernabeu has been captured by you. ”
Torres will be 23 years old in a month's time, and he has already become the most formidable striker in La Liga this season. After playing Real Madrid, Torres has already scored 20 goals in La Liga, which is the most goals scored in a season since Torres entered the first team of Atletico Madrid. The important thing is that there is still a third of the season to go, and at the end of the season at the current form, it should not be very difficult for Torres to score 256 goals.
In current Spanish football, only Ruud van Nistelrooy can match Fernando Torres' goals. La Liga's top scorer should be the two of them competing for it. However, the reason for Torres' outburst is mainly because Bianchi's style of play is very suitable for Torres's characteristics. If it was playing pressing football, Torres might not have scored as many goals as he has now.
"It's always been a dream of mine."
Fresh off the capture of the Bernabeu, Torres' excitement hasn't gotten down yet. Back at his home, the more he thought about it, the happier he became, and the sweeter his memories became. Torres is different from the rest of Atletico's current players, he is a Atletico native of the club. Their family has always been a fan of Atletico Madrid, and Torres himself has been a fan of Atletico Madrid since he was a child, and he was a treasure in the hearts of Atletico fans when he debuted from the academy.
It can be said that Torres listened to the applause of Atletico fans and walked over with flowers from Atletico fans at every step of the way, so for Torres, Atletico Madrid is his home. The most angry thing for Atletico Madrid fans is that Real Madrid is firmly suppressing Atletico Madrid in Madrid, and Atletico Madrid fans dream of kicking Real Madrid down.
The same goes for Torres. He had always hoped to capture the Bernabeu. Vent yourself and the Atletico fans. It's a pity that Fernando Torres hasn't beaten Real Madrid at the Bernabeu since he was in the first team. Today was the first time in more than seven years that he had beaten Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, so he was particularly excited today.
"Fernando, I don't know if it's appropriate for Lu Dao to talk to you about this now. But now that we have reached the point where we have to talk about it, I hope it doesn't affect your current state. ”
"What's the matter?"
Torres had some doubts. Since I met Rist seven years ago, Rist has been in control of everything. Until now, Torres still trusts Riste, because after Reist became Torres's agent, Torres earned the highest income of any player in his age.
It should be said that it is not only the same age group, but in Spain it is estimated that there is no one who can compare with Torres's income at the moment, except for many years of banner figures like Raul. Torres earns more than fifteen or six million euros a year after taxes, like this year because of Torres' outstanding performance. There is a good chance that there will be 20 million euros in revenue next year. Such a salary can almost enter the top five of the current world football player income list.
And the few players who can overwhelm Torres are not business bosses like David Beckham. It is players like Ronaldinho and Thierry Henry who have the highest salaries in world football.
It may be that he has been accustomed to seeing Rist's confident appearance over the years, and now seeing that Rist has some desire to say something, Torres is very puzzled. It's hard to say anything about things that make Riester feel like they're hard to say.
'The contract we signed with Atletico four years ago is due to expire next summer. Now I have a lot of offers in my hands, but Miguel and Enrique are also starting to ask about contract extensions. I need to discuss such a big matter with you. Take a look at your opinions. ”
Now say that the strength of the broker has risen sharply. But compared to the late nineties. The strength of the broker is much worse. In the 90s, many agents and predators who took advantage of the rise of the Boseman Act did not care about the wishes of their players. How to make money, they will come. Even they don't care what the players think. As long as they can make money, there are not a few who sign a contract with the club privately.
Of course, such an agent will not end well. Anyway, it's basically disappeared now, and it can almost be said that it has made a hammer deal. Agents who can do business for a long time are basically people who know how to deal with players. For a big matter like a transfer, even if Rist really has any ideas, the method of choice will basically be to convince his own players.
As for some players who are not strong enough, then there is no way. In this world, only strength is recognized, and without strength, there is no right to reciprocal dialogue. Although Rist is also a good agent for his players, at most he cares about those powerful players who can bring obvious benefits to Lister. Those who are not strong enough are not qualified to negotiate terms with Lister at all, and when they transferred, Lister was a little more domineering.
"Rist, I didn't think about leaving Atletico."
Torres was amused and surprised. Torres has never thought about this, having been an Atletico fan since he was a child, having been in the Atletico academy before he was 10 years old and making his debut in the Atletico first team before he was 17. Don't look at the age of twenty-three, but he has already played more than 200 games for Atletico and scored more than 100 goals. Atletico is his home and he never wanted to leave. Now Atletico has taken the initiative to talk about renewing his contract, isn't that a good thing?
"Fernando, although Atletico Madrid has a good result now, after all, the stage is still too small."
Although Atletico Madrid boasts that it is the third largest club in Spain in La Liga, after so many years of development, Atletico Madrid's influence has long been less than it was back then.
Not to mention that Atletico Madrid won a La Liga title, even if Atletico Madrid won a Champions League, their appeal would be limited. Just like the current Atletico Madrid won the Champions League this season, it will definitely not make Atletico a giant. On the contrary, it is a question of whether they will be able to retain half of the players this season next season. Because by then, good players have long been robbed by European giants.
Because of what, because Atletico has no money. Atletico have Hill Jr. and Enrique behind them. Ferrezzo supports, but Atletico themselves have too little income. And little Hill and Enrique. Although Freezzo is also a rich man in Spain, he does not have the strength of Abramovich. If you don't have money, you can't raise your salary, and if your salary isn't high, the players will leave. That's the biggest reason.
Look at Tottenham, how many years he hasn't achieved anything. In the past decade, Tottenham's results have been far inferior to clubs such as Deportivo La Coruna, Valencia, Villarreal and Borussia Dortmund. But he just attracts players for no other reason than one. That is, Tottenham have the money and can offer high wages.
"I love titles, so I've thought about winning them at other clubs as well. But now that Atletico have the quality to win the title, why should I leave? ”
Listening to Torres's words, Rist was surprised. Rist vividly remembers that in '07, Torres left Atletico Madrid and began his peak days at Liverpool. Of course, with the departure of Torres, Atletico Madrid also produced two other strikers, one is Aguero and the other is Forlan.
Although Rist asked Torres what he meant, Rist always thought that Torres himself should want to break through, especially to the giants. Of course, Rist also wants Torres to leave and stay at a club for too long, and the agent's income will not be high. Once a star of Torres' level transfers, he will inevitably be worth more than 40 million euros, and the commission will be very considerable at that time.
Historically, Torres' transfer to Liverpool was worth 26 million pounds, which is more than 40 million euros when converted into euros. A few years later, the transfer from Liverpool to Chelsea was £50 million, and although the price of the pound fell sharply at the time, it was also more expensive than the euro. Calculated for these two transfers, the broker's commission is certainly staggering.
"That's what you think?"
"Yes."
Torres nodded, and then wondered: "You want me to transfer?" ”
"I've always thought so. You and David are the best strikers in Spain after Raul, and they should both go to the giants to pursue a bigger stage. I never thought you'd stay at Atletico. I thought you thought so too. ”
Rist is telling the truth. Historically, Torres has not been loyal, transferring to Liverpool and then Chelsea, and the transfer fee is higher and higher. Why did he suddenly become a loyal minister at this time.
"I love Atletico. I can win the championship here as well. ”
"Well, I respect your choice."
Reesette nodded. Although he didn't understand what was different from history, Rist respected Torres' choice. Since Torres wants to be a loyal servant of Atletico, Rist wants to fulfill him, although Rist is not very convinced. Because even if Torres wants to be a loyal servant of Atletico Madrid, when a club offers a high enough price, Atletico Madrid will not let Torres be a loyal servant.
For now, though, Rist still has to plan for Torres. Rist thought for a moment and said, "In that case, you don't have to think about anything. If you want to stay, Atletico don't want to stay. If you want to leave, Atletico can't stay if you want to. You don't have to worry about it. When you're out in an interview, don't talk too much about the contract. Just push everything on me. ”
Even if he stays, Atletico Madrid doesn't give up enough salary, and Rist won't give up. In these few months, Rist will definitely drag, and next season, Rist's initiative will not be ordinarily large.
With one year left on his contract, Rist will be whatever he says then. Rist's request is simple, that is, to ask Torres's salary to be on par with Henry and Ronaldinho. As the banner of Atletico, he is entitled to such a salary.
"I believe in you."
Torres just played the ball and left the rest to Rist. And Rist didn't disappoint him once.
"Then wait for my good news. I'll give you the best contract possible. ”
Although he was not going to transfer as he expected, and there were some small disappointments, Rist didn't pay much attention to it. After a year or two, maybe you will get more? Anyway, as oil capital enters European football, there will be more and more clubs that can afford Torres. (To be continued......)
