Chile is at the southern tip of South America. As a country across the sea from Antarctica, Chile is considered by themselves to be the "land of the end of the world". It was Rist's first time in Chile. As the summer slowly passed, Rist was relieved. Because Rist's summer busyness had finally passed, Rist had a little time to rest.

and Fernando. After Roig finished talking, Rist immediately asked the company to contact the Chilean side. Rist has some old connections in Brazil and Argentina, although because of the suppression of Figer makes it impossible for Rist to develop in Brazilian football, but it is very simple to inquire about some things. But I don't have any connections in Chile, and I haven't had any contact with them. But Shijie is the same in any region, money is the uncle. As long as Rist has money, he can do things in any country.

Rister contacted Chilean football to see what Pellegrini was up to. Wondering about Pellegrini's information, news soon came. The most detailed information about Pellegrini is also on Lister's desk, and it turns out that Pellegrini is resting at home at this time.

Manuel Pellegrini was a civil engineer until he was thirty-five years old and only entered football at the age of thirty-five. Even when he entered football as a head coach, his salary was too low, far less than his salary as an engineer. So his wife was so angry that she even wanted to divorce him, because his wife really didn't understand that Pellegrini was not a good engineer, but a football coach.

It's been twelve years now. Manuel Pellegrini has been a manager for 12 years, and of course there aren't many titles. He has won the Chilean Cup in Chile. He also coached in Ecuador last season and won the Ecuadorian league. However, after leaving Ecuador, he was temporarily at home.

According to the results of the survey, Pellegrini is still a little famous in Chile, and even in South America. So much so that it has already attracted the attention of clubs in the Argentine league. However, I don't know how, Pellegrini chose to take a break for a while.

"Hello, Mr. Cyrny."

Rist had spoken to Pellegrini on the phone before coming to him. After all, the two didn't know each other, and Rist couldn't rush over to him. Because Chile was once a Spanish colony, Chileans now speak Spanish. The same goes for Manuel Pellegrini.

"Hello Coach Pellegrini."

At this time, Pellegrini was already forty-seven years old, which is not young. However, it is the most suitable age for the coaching industry. Chile is a relatively wealthy country in turbulent South America. Whether it's personal income or state finances. Chile is relatively haode.

South America also developed rapidly after World War II. There's a joke about Brazil. At a time when Brazil was preparing for industrialization. Brazil's elites told the Brazilian government that heavy industry had no future, and that light industry was what would make the country rich quickly. The Brazilian government listened to this opinion and within a short time the Brazilian manufacturing industry. That is, the processing enterprises are developing very quickly. Brazil's economy is also one of the largest in South America. Even in the whole Shijie, economic development is obvious to all.

Unfortunately, soon Shijie's economy declined. Then the big countries moved their processing companies to other regions, and Brazil's economy took a huge hit. Most of the so-called manufacturing industries went bankrupt in a short period of time. Brazil's economy is also starting to decline.

Of course, there are many factors behind Brazil's economic decline. But as the joke suggests, the Brazilian government has chosen the simplest way of development in order to get the most out of the moment. Unfortunately, this economy is too dependent on foreign countries. Wait until the policy side of other industrial countries. Countries like Brazil have also been hit too hard.

Since '98, Shijie's economy has been in some difficulty, and this is especially true in South America, which has been developing rapidly. For example, the economies of Brazil and Argentina are struggling, but the economy of Chile is still stable. Pellegrini's home seems to be relatively wealthy, and Rist can feel it from his home.

Although he received a call from Lister, Pellegrini was more confused. Pellegrini only knew that Rist was a European agent, and he didn't know who it was. Therefore, it is unclear what Rist's purpose is.

"Coach Pellegrini, I heard you're resting now."

Rist first talked to Pellegrini about Chilean football, and then casually asked about it. Pellegrini nodded and said, "I've been a coach for twelve years, so I want to take a break. By the way, I will sort out my own coaching ideas, which can be regarded as a summary. ”

"Yes. Any successful person can only succeed if he is constantly reflecting. ”

Speaking of this, Rist looked up at Pellegrini and said with a smile: "Coach Pellegrini, it's a break anyway. Have you ever thought about going to Europe? Go and see the development of European football and feel the style of European football. ”

"Europe?"

For many people in South American football, the loss is great. Because after World War II, Shijie football has always been played against South American football and European football. Shijie football powerhouses are all in South America and Europe. Not only at the national team level, but also at the league and club level. At that time, South American football people were very confident, and it should be said that they were not afraid of European football.

In the competition at the national team level, South America has strong teams such as Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. At the club level, South American teams are facing European teams in the Toyota Cup. At that time, South American football was a little poorer, but it was able to compete with European clubs at the club level.

Unfortunately, since the European economy is getting better and better, the South American economy is getting more and more difficult. Economy and sport go hand in hand, and South America's best players aspire to Europe. Superstars and top-notch stars have fled to Europe, leading to an absolute disadvantage in the confrontation between South American clubs and European clubs. Occasionally, if one or two talented superstars come out, they will overwhelm European clubs in the Toyota Cup in a given year. But for the most part, South American clubs are no longer capable of competing with European clubs. Therefore, for the footballers of South America, they are very disappointed. They all know that the center of shijie football is already Europe.

The same goes for Manuel Pellegrini. Europe is not just a place for players. Even the successful managers in South America want to prove themselves in Europe. Because only by proving yourself in Europe can you truly become a Shijie handsome. This is especially true of Manuel Pellegrini.

"Yes."

Reeskey nodded and said, "Coach Pellegrini, someone recommended you to me. He told me that you are a great manager. That's why I came to you. Now that he is resting, Coach Pellegrini can go to Europe to have a look. Just look at the style of European football, you can coach there as well. ”

Pellegrini used to be a civil engineer and was very thoughtful. Listen to Rist. Manuel Pellegrini already understands what Lister is looking for himself today. For him. Of course it's a pleasure to be able to coach in Europe.

Both financially and famously, European football is far better than Chilean football. It should be said that from the whole Shijie scope, European football is the big platform, and European football is the place to show its talents. But how could he trust Rister, that was the biggest question. Manuel Pellegrini knows he has no connections in Europe, and with his results in South America, it is impossible to get European football to pay attention to him.

"Mr. Czerny. With what I've achieved, it doesn't seem like enough to get the attention of European football clubs. ”

"Yes."

Rist nodded affirmatively. "There are a lot of coaches in South America. I don't know the exact number. But it is estimated that there are not 100,000, and there should be 80,000. Among so many coaches, to be honest, there are definitely no more than 10 clubs who can be looked at by clubs in Europe's top five leagues. In the case of Coach Pellegrini's results. It's true that no club will know about you. In European football, no one has ever heard of your name. ”

Rist was direct, but Pellegrini wasn't angry. Because not to mention Manuel Pellegrini himself, even Chile's most hode coach can't attract European football clubs. In South America, only coaches who have coached giants in Brazil and Argentina, or who have won the Copa Libertadores, can attract the attention of European football.

"Actually, it's not because South American coaches are not as good as European coaches. Except for the top coaches, everyone is about the same level. It's just that because South American coaches don't have connections, unless they have achieved great success in South America, they can't attract the attention of European clubs. After all, there is only one coach in a club, and it is impossible to have dozens of players like that. So South American players sell well in Europe, but coaches never do. ”

Pellegrini didn't speak, but couldn't agree more with what Rist said. There are a lot of coaches in South America because the number of people in countries like Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Chile who work in football is absolutely staggering. Therefore, the coaching team is also very large, and if you add those youth coaches, maybe it can really exceed 100,000.

Among so many coaches, there is certainly not one or two excellent coaches. But there are very few coaches who can attract the attention of European football, and they are completely different from the players.

"But with me, it's a different story. Coach Pellegrini, it's not me bragging. I wouldn't dare to say I'm the number one agent in European football, after all, there are super agents like Figer. But in European football, even Figer would not underestimate me, and he didn't even have the ability to suppress me. In European football, I can compete with Figer. ”

Figer is a predator, and Rist really wants to bring it down. But from now on, the sign of Figel is louder than that of Lister in South America and even in Europe. Therefore, Rist can only use him as a metaphor.

Sure enough, Figer's name came out, leaving Pellegrini dumbfounded. Figer is a native of Uruguay, and although most of his players are in Brazil, he is very famous in South American football. Figer is a veritable South American agent predator, and he is a presence that anyone in South American football looks up to.

In South American football, whether it is a club, an agent, a coach, or a player, there is no one who has not heard the name of Figer. Figer not only controls the resources of South American players, but even sixty or seventy percent of South America's outstanding managers are under the control of Figer. Such a super agent is indeed the existence that everyone in South American football fears.

Pellegrini looked at Rist carefully. Compared to Figer, who was already seventy years old, Rist was only thirty-one years old. But Rist dared to say that he was an agent who could compete with Figer. This man is either a madman or a real European broker predator. When you think about it, Pellegrini doesn't know how to judge.

"I don't know if Coach Manuel Pellegrini has heard that Figer has banned some agents and players in Brazilian football."

Pellegrini nodded. In many cases, the speed of gossip is faster than normal things, especially if it can make a super agent like Figel angry, of course, it is the after-dinner chatter of South American football. When Manuel Pellegrini was coaching in Ecuador, he heard a lot of people say it.

"That's because I and Becker, the agent of Brazilian player Lucio, messed up Figer's business. Figer can't find me bad luck in European football, and Becker is not going back to Brazil in Europe. So the only way to be angry with the Brazilian agent in Brazilian football is to be angry. Most of the agents and players he banned were people who had some relationship with me. ”

Not to mention anything else, just to say that this Pellegrini already understands what Rister means. So he said cautiously: "Mr. Cirny, you mean you have a way for me to coach a European club?" ”

"Yes. I'm in Spain and I'm not in a relationship with the haode club. I'm absolutely sure to pull a string for you, but the result of zuihou still depends on your strength. Valencia coach Rafael, who won the Champions League last season. Rafa Benitez is my manager and I introduced him to Valencia. ”

Pellegrini smiled bitterly in his heart. What Rist means now is very simple, that is, to make himself a coach under Rist. If he agrees, then he is willing to help him become the head coach of the Spanish club.

Pellegrini isn't very resistant to having an agent. If a super-agent like Figer were willing to make him his coach, Pellegrini would surely be in the past. Because if you really become the coach of Figer, then it is not impossible to coach the Brazilian giants. That's the benefit that a super agent brings to coaches.

It's just that Pellegrini has never been able to determine the bottom of this Lister in front of him. If you are deceived, then you will become a daxiao dialect. So Pellegrini weighed his tone and said, "Mr. Chelny, can you give me some time?" I would like to discuss it with my family. ”

"No problem." (To be continued......)
