"Augusto, you must be the greatest president of A Coruña."

Benitez's arrival in Valencia is the most important thing for Lister at the moment, but Rister does not show any urgency. Instead, he went around in Spanish football as if he had nothing to do. I kept in contact with some Spanish football people, and I kept meeting with some big names in the Spanish media circle. Now Rist is slowly showing sharp teeth, so he needs to continue to cultivate his own personal connections.

And today Lister came to A Coruña to watch Deportivo play. Deportivo La Coruna has been crazy in the past three seasons, because this season's Deportivo results are amazingly good, and the La Liga title looks like it can't run. Real Madrid and Barcelona are the undisputed giants of Spain, but with Deportivo La Coruna's dominance, they can only fight for second place in both seasons. If they win La Liga again this season, Deportivo La Liga will win two consecutive La Liga titles.

"Lister, you have contributed to this too. In the future, when our club brings in players, you must come and give us a consultant, I am sure that no one can compare to you. ”

For Risrondoiro is ten thousand convinced. Because the players that Lister recommended to Rondoiro have all been doing well this season. Deportivo already had Rivaldo, a superplayer, who was in the top three of La Liga's goalscorers for both seasons. And Mackay, who moved to Deportivo La Coruna this season, is a super goalscorer.

Deportivo La Coruna's attacking strength is very strong, and Rivaldo, Pobowski, and Dejaminha in the front court are all good passers. The season isn't over yet. Mackay has already scored 23 goals for Deportivo La Coruna, leading the scoring charts by a wide margin. You have to have speed, you have to have explosiveness, you have jishu, and his shooting is so good. The whole of Spanish football was conquered by Markay. It only cost eight million dollars to bring in the top scorer in La Liga, which is a bargain.

Of course, there is only such a stroke, and of course Rondoiro will not admire Rist so much. Deportivo also has a heavyweight transfer this season, which is the $5 million acquisition of Ze Roberto. The player, who has failed at Real Madrid, has been important for Deportivo La Coruna this season.

He plays on the left and when he attacks, his dribbling and crosses are top-notch. And when it comes to defending, he works hard. Even when there is a shortage of people in the midfield position, he can also be a defender at the back. Able to effectively balance Deportivo offensively and defensively. Ze Roberto, who won $5 million, is now worth more than $15 million. It has attracted the attention of countless teams.

The summer was spent some money. But it works very well. Deportivo La Coruna this season is better than last season. completely suppressed Real Madrid and Barcelona, the two La Liga giants. There has never been such a glorious time in the history of A Coruña. This made Rondoiro very happy, and Lister was now treated as a complete VIP at Rondoiro.

Now Rondolphi has only one idea. Have a good relationship with Lister, and listen to Lister's recommendations when transferring in the future.

"Augusto, that's all too much to say. Anyone who needs me anywhere in the club can come to me. Even if it's not my player. I also seem to recommend Mackay and Ze Roberto this time. Give you the most suitable player. ”

The shrewd Rondoiro is now more and more ambitious. A small La Liga title is no longer able to satisfy his ambitions, and it looks like he is going to continue to take risks, he wants to continue to expand Deportivo La Coruna's strength.

Be sensible. This is especially true as policymakers. The shrewd chairman, the shrewd president who single-handedly pulled Deportivo La Coruna out of the quagmire, is now so ambitious and appetizing that he will put Deportivo La Coruna in another desperate situation. Rist shook his head, now Rondoiro carried away by the victory. But what's this, for Rist, haode can no longer haode news.

Rist wants Deportivo to continue to make big moves. Of course, Rister will never point out to others to make a wedding dress, and when the time comes, Rister will of course take advantage of Rondoldro's trust and recommend his players to Deportivo La Coruna. It takes time to build up cooperation with each other.

"Dingding-ding-"

"Hello, I'm Lister. Cherny. ”

Listening to the self-introduction of the people inside, Rist smiled slightly. What he threw out could finally be rewarded, and this was the time that Rist was waiting for. However, Rist did not rush to hurry, but replied with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ottie. I still have business to do in A Coruña, how about we meet in two days? ”

Even if Benitez isn't very famous now, Rist doesn't need to scold them. They seem to be Benitez cheap, but Rister doesn't.

"Otti, Jaime of Valencia. Otti? ”

After Rist put down the phone, Rondoiro asked Rist curiously. Rondoiro didn't expect that Rist was still related to Valencia, after all, Otti was a heavyweight in Valencia's upper echelons. Reestrap nodded, not hiding anything from Rondoiro.

"What is he looking for from you? Is Valencia going to buy your players? ”

"It's big business. Soon La Liga football will know. ”

As for the specifics, Lister played Tai Chi. The Benitez affair has not yet had a concrete result, and Rist is reluctant to let the wind go.

…………

Two days, two days later, Rist arrived in Valencia. Cortez and Otti were a little angry about Rist's performance. Benitez is just a young coach who has just emerged, and Valencia is interested in you, so you should come and pat yourself on the back.

What is Benitez? He is only thirty-nine years old, and in terms of results, he has only managed two seasons in La Liga. Fame is still this season, and this season is a big dark horse. However, the results of the Estrimadura club are good. But it hasn't reached the point of being a really big dark horse. It can only be said that it is good.

Not to mention the dark horse miracle like Nottingham Forest, there was the Kaiserslautern miracle in previous years, and of course there was a dark horse miracle of Deportivo La Coruna even in La Liga football. Compared to them, Extremadura FC is nothing at all. Cow what cow!

In their minds, Benitez's agent is too unaware of the sky. However, although they also know that Benitez is a young coach, they also know that Lister. Cherny was young, but not someone they would despise at will. After all, the current Rist is no longer a small agent who just debuted in 96. The influence in La Liga football is growing.

So although they were a little dissatisfied, no one showed it when facing Rist. Because even if Benitez's affairs don't work out, they don't know when they will have to make contact with Lister. So they were very warm to receive Lister.

"Hello, President Cortés, Mr. Otti."

"Hello, Mr. Cyrny."

Two days later, Rist met Cortés and Otti in Valencia. These two people are also very familiar with each other, and have seen the two of them before. But this is the first time that such face-to-face negotiations have been held.

For the first time, Rist and Valencia had not worked together before. So we talked about some La Liga issues this season, and then Otti said: "Mr. Czerny. We at Valencia hope to have Coach Benitez as our head coach next season. ”

Actually, Ottie was a bit surprised. He began to think that Benitez was a young coach who was just emerging. So meet with him. However, Benitez replied that everything he did was managed by an agent, and that he could talk to an agent first about anything. This made Otti stunned at the time, you are a thirty-nine-year-old young coach and an agent?

But I've heard that it's Lister. After Cherny, they had to face Benitez. After all, Rist is not as good as a predator-level agent like Figer. But it's also a good agent in Spanish football.

"Valencia's manager? It's a good location. Mr. Ottie. Did Valencia really invite Rafael to be Valencia's head coach? ”

"Of course."

Rist's speech was slow. And it's calm. This made Ottie feel very uncomfortable, and when they discussed it before, Benitez should have been a fart. But look at Rist's attitude now. It seems that Valencia's invitation was not very good.

"But weishenme?"

Rist's rhetorical question makes both Cortez and Otti look at each other, because Rist is completely different from what they imagined. It was Otti who replied: "We think that coach Benitez has done well this season at Esttremadura FC and is in line with our development in Valencia. ”

"Mr. Ottie, do you think Raphael is excellent?"

Ottie nodded slightly. He couldn't say bad in the face of Lister, and how could he invite him to Valencia if he wasn't good. So he could only nod.

"So, Mr. Ottie. Rafael became Valencia's head coach, what rights can the club give Rafael? ”

After so many turns, that's what Rist wanted to ask. Benitez is a manager who is not good at communication, nor is he good at communicating with the company's top management. In his coaching career, apart from the beginning, after a few seasons, there were conflicts with the club's top management. And he is not good at how to confront and compromise with the top, and many Zuihou left the club because of conflicts with the top management and the locker room. Therefore, Lister knows that the future needs to be considered and dealt with by List.

For Benitez now, he should seize this opportunity even if he doesn't give money. But Rist will never take the initiative, how much Rist has worked hard for the current situation.

Right? Benitez's rights? Cortez and Otti were really unprepared this time, and they were too contemptuous of Benitez before they came, so they were not prepared for this. Therefore, when it came time to negotiate with Lister, he fell into disadvantage. But Ottie wasn't any ordinary person after all, and it soon became clear that they had made a mistake before the negotiations.

Therefore, he immediately adjusted their mentality and asked Rister rhetorically: "Mr. Cirny, what kind of rights do you want Raphael to get?" ”

Rist looked up at Otti, who was definitely the mainstay in the current chaos of Valencia, and was the best person at the top of Valencia. If it weren't for the board's constraints, Otti would not have managed Valencia the way it is now.

"It's actually quite simple. Raphael is young, I'm sure you know that. To be young is to be underqualified, so I hope that the club's hierarchy will not interfere with Rafael's management of the team. Because once the top management interferes in the team's affairs at will, Benitez will not be able to control the dressing room at all. Of course I know the rights of the sporting director in Spain, so I don't ask for the transfer rights to Rafael. But as a coach, I want him to have the right to advise on transfers, to be involved in any player recruitment. ”

Rist's request is a bit excessive, because in La Liga football, the sporting director is very important to the club. When it comes to recruitment, the sporting director is the decision-maker, and the manager can at most have some suggestions. So when Rist's conditions came out, Cortez and Ottie's faces changed, which was completely different from what they had imagined. And this is still for the parties, especially Lister, but it is a separation of powers. Take away the power from Ottie, who is the sporting director.

If it was normal, they would just say no. But by this time they were all silent, because the season was coming to an end. However, the manager of Valencia, Jihua, has been slow, and Rafael Benitez is the one they have been able to confirm with great difficulty, and the board can approve it. If the talks fall apart this time, then I want to find a manager who can be accepted by the board, and I don't know which one.

But compared to Cortez, Otti was much more decisive. Of course, Cortez couldn't agree, because although he and Ottie had a good relationship, they weren't really in the same camp. If he agrees, then it will be to help Benitez split power, and he does not want to have any dirt with Ottie. So Cortez was silent, but Otti finally made up his mind. Knowing that the manager's affairs could not be delayed any longer, he said decisively: "Mr. Czerny, of course the manager should have the right in this regard, and it is important for a team to develop the manager's opinion. ”

Rist was overjoyed to hear Ottie's words. There weren't many demands on Benitez's contract, especially when it came to income. Because Benitez is just a young coach right now. More than asking for money, you need a stage.

Therefore, the subsequent negotiations are much simpler. Rist's salary was not high, because Ottie and the others easily agreed. Seeing that Zuihou was almost finished, Lister smiled slightly. As long as you have grades, are you still afraid of money in the future? (To be continued......)
