Rist had initial contact with Abu, and he also had a preliminary understanding of Abu. Abu doesn't necessarily really like football, and he doesn't necessarily really want to run a football club. He wasn't much interested in all of this. But he is a very proud person and wants to save face. Now that he's invested in Chelsea, he's going to do his best.

Chelsea's piece of the pie is the biggest in the Premier League, and Rister will never give up. Now Lister and Abu are only slowly in contact, and Lister has many favorable conditions. Because and Pini. Zahavi and Dvisel have a good personal relationship, and Rist already has all the conditions to be a transfer consultant for Abou. All Rist has to do now is gain Abu's trust even further.

Of course, this trust needs not only to continue to contact, but also to be explained by achievements. Rist has to show Abramovich with one or two excellent transfers that he can be trusted. Only then will Abu trust Rist even more. While Rist was busy in England with how to build a relationship with Chelsea, the former Shijie's first agent, Figer, and his son, who had been silent for more than a year, appeared in Barcelona. This time, though, he was quiet.

"Sandro, long time no see."

As soon as he got off the plane, Figel made the car that had been prepared, and then arrived at Figer's home in Barcelona. Figel has a lot of business in Spain, so he has several properties in Spain. In the past, when he was at his best, he would spend almost half of his time in Europe. Here he received a friend, Rosell, who had just become the vice-president of Barça.

"Juan, it's been okay lately."

"Not dead yet."

Figer replied with a smile. Russell and Figel have known each other for a long time. As early as when Russell was a senior executive at Nike, Russell and Figel were familiar with each other. At that time, Russell lived in Brazil for two years because he was the head of Nike's South American region. During this time, he had a close relationship with the Brazilian football world, and he was quite familiar with the Brazilian agent predator Figel at that time.

If there is a disagreement between Russell and Laporta, it is also a disagreement on this side. Laporta is a Catalanist and in his opinion should develop his own academy players. Russell has more players to bring in, most of them Brazilians.

"Sandro, I forgot to congratulate you."

“xiexie。”

The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they simply greeted each other and asked each other about the recent situation. But the two have a very good relationship after all. Figer didn't beat around the bush either. Briefly explained the purpose of this trip to Russell.

Russell after listening to Figer's words. And did not answer immediately, but was very surprised. Now the relationship between Barcelona and Lister is very good, and the players brought in this season have also performed very well. Lister's contribution is still very large. At this time, squeezing Rist out of Barcelona is completely crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

And Rusell wants to make Barcelona an international giant. Not an extreme Catalasa like Laporta. Therefore, Russell prefers to work with agents and predators like Rist. Instead of the Mascaldi, who has already begun to pass the gas, they cooperate.

So Russell hesitated a little and said, "Juan." Barcelona is a big club and can't afford to lose its reputation. We can work with you, but we can't do anything wrong with Lister. Lister and we haven't been working together for long. We have contributed a lot to Barça, how could we fall out with him so quickly. ”

Figel in front of him is an old friend of Russell, so Russell said some of his thoughts. If it weren't for an old friend, Russell wouldn't have spoken his mind.

Mascali and Ribeiro want to work with Barcelona, and Rosell will not refuse. Because for Russell, Barça's interests are always above all else. One more agent to compete with is good for Barcelona. With these agents, Rusell is also able to slightly squeeze Lister's current rapidly expanding influence at Barcelona. But there's no way to get Russell to ditch Rist and work with them.

"Yes."

While Russell didn't support it, Figel didn't look angry at all. Instead, he smiled and nodded. Then he said: "Sandro, in that case, you can meet directly with Mascadi and Ribeiro to talk." They both have a lot of great stars and are willing to sell them to Barcelona at a low price. ”

Figer promised Mascaldy to be an intermediary, so he was ready to create an opportunity for Mascali and Ribeiro to contact the Barcelona hierarchy.

"He's gone?"

Figer is old, so it is Figer's son who sends the guests away. Figer's two sons are here now, and they can't understand what Figer is going to do. Help Mascaldy, it doesn't look like it. But help Rist, either. Even it seems that Figer is not neutral.

"Yes, father."

Although they were puzzled, neither of the two sons asked Figel what he was going to do. Because Figer has always decided everything alone, and the two sons have only the share of obedience.

"Help me contact Belgilstan, I'd like to talk to him."

"Father, this Belgilistan and Sandro don't have a very good relationship."

Marcel whispered to Figer. Figel and Russell have a good personal relationship, Marcel knows this. Now Figer wants to meet Belgilstan, much to Marcel's surprise. While Belgilistan and Russell were never dirty, everyone knew a little. That is, Begilistan is Laporta's man, and Russell is just Laporta's collaborator. With Laporta becoming president of Barça, the close bond between them disappeared. Russell's relationship with Belgillistan has also become delicate. Marcel was afraid that Figel did not know this, so he hastened to remind him.

"Huh. It is precisely because they have a bad relationship that they want to meet him. I can't deal with Lister, but I can't make it easy for him. Laporta should not want to see Rosell and Rist on good terms. ”

…………

"Sandro, what do you think?"

When Russell returned, he told his close friend Bartomeu what Figel meant. Among the current new top brass in Barcelona, there are many people from the Russell faction. Because Laporta and Rosell are only partners, Laporta and Rosell's Shili are almost equal in the newly established Barcelona executives. However, of all the people, Rosell and Bartomeu have the best relationship.

"Me?"

Russell smiled and said, "I don't have any ideas. They want to do business with Barcelona, so do it. If they're willing to give us good players at a low price, why not. ”

"Where is Ster?"

"Of course Rist is continuing to work together. We at Barcelona are giants, and we can't just be connected with one agent. I could give the biggest cake to Rist, but Rist can't go too far. ”

Bartomeu, a businessman, understands this. It's just that in Bartomeu's opinion, Rosell and Rist are cooperative, and they have always worked well together. There is no reason to cause any unnecessary trouble for outsiders. Although he has limited contact with Lister, he also knows that Lister only seems to have a good temper on the surface. If you really provoke him, this person is not easy to provoke.

"Sandro, we have a good relationship with Rist. Wouldn't that make Rist feel like we're crossing the river and tearing down the bridge? ”

"No, it won't."

Russell shook his head. Then he snorted coldly: "Mascaly and they are already in the sun, and they hope to have a Zuihou fight." They want us Barcelona to be the Gunners for them, and they have to figure it out. ”

Thinking of this Russell is pouting. If it had been five or six years ago, Russell would have abandoned Rist without hesitation. But what is the current development of European football? Barcelona's sworn enemy Real Madrid has introduced frequent reinforcements, but it is not a headache for money at all. Because they did a great job of commercial development. However, although Barcelona has also spent lavishly in the past two years, the club's debt is increasing.

Today's football is commercial football. The most powerful thing about these South American agents is that they have huge player resources in their hands, and the worst thing is that they can't keep up with the development of football. With their kind of virtue, they dare to let Barcelona be their gunners, and they don't know how thick the sky is. Barcelona and Rist are far more promising than working with them.

'We have a working relationship with Lister, but we have to put a little pressure on him. Of course, this time we don't really offend Rist, and we should give Rist no less benefits. It's just that since Mascali and they came up on their own, they should also make good use of them. ”

Friends and foes, Russell is very clear. Those who can bring benefits to themselves are friends, and those who cannot bring benefits to themselves are enemies. Friends and foes don't have names attached to them, and they can change anytime and anywhere.

"Talk. Do you mean to talk? ”

"Of course. But after a while, we're going to get the news out to Rister. The battle between Rist and these South American agent predators is sure to be a good sight to watch. ”

Russell laughed grimly.

"Figer's side?"

Bartomeu knew that Rusell and Figer had a good relationship, so he asked.

"Juan, hum. This time, Juan, Mascati, and Ribeiro cooperated, but it was impossible to do so because they were working together. You see, I don't know who of the three of them will be unlucky, but it will definitely not be Juan. Juan is an old fox, when did he ever hear that he cooperated with someone else and then was deceived. In football for more than 30 years, only he deceived people, and no one else deceived him. ”

Just as he was talking to Bartomeu, Russell's phone rang and thought. Looking at the phone number, a sneer appeared on Russell's face. Then he looked at Bartomeu and said, "Begilistan's phone." This is even me. (To be continued......)
