Sitting in the VIP seats in the stands are two important players in the international football transfer market.

One of them is Jorge Mendez, a star in the football agency world and a minority shareholder of Maritimo.

The other is a bald, fat old man who looks kind-hearted. However, anyone familiar with the international football investment and transfer market knows that this is a super boss who can really make all the difference.

He is Jonathan Barnett, the boss of r Football Ltd, the world's largest football agency company!

Jonathan Barnett has just been named the world's highest-paid football agent by Forbes, while Mendes next to him can only rank third.

r Football Ltd has 530 players from all over the world, covering mainstream leagues in Europe and South America. The classic cases it has operated are the transfer of Ashley Cole from Arsenal to local rivals Chelsea in 2006; and the operation of Bale in 2013

Transferred from Tottenham to Real Madrid for a world record fee.

However, in recent years, the company has not had any particularly famous stars. There are only second-rate European stars such as Szczesny, Luke Shaw, and Mason Mount. The only one who has made a shot is Bale, who is already a veteran who is declining.

Barnett also wants to sign superstars, but these days, international football has seen a decline in superstars, and those top stars are being hidden and taken care of like treasures by their respective agencies. If you want to snatch them away, they will definitely fight you with their lives.

The management companies of superstars must also be giants. If a giant encounters a giant, it will definitely result in a bloody blow.

Therefore, Barnett decided to adjust his strategy. If I couldn't sign a superstar, I would sign young talents who might become top superstars in the future.

Maritimo and Red Bull Salzburg are currently two teams with a large concentration of young talents in European football. They are arsenals that supply talents to wealthy teams. Of course, he must pay attention to the direct competition between these two teams.

As far as he knew, not only himself, but also his company's main competitor TeamWass, as well as Raiola and other agents also sent personnel to watch the game on site.

Of course, not to mention the Portuguese vampire Mendes and his GESTIFUTE company next to him!

Barnett looked at both sides of the game on the court and sighed: "So many outstanding young people! I haven't seen so many young talents competing in the same game in many years!"

Mendes rolled his eyes at him. His colleagues were enemies, not to mention that he was doing something bigger than him! He didn't mind attacking this old man who liked to steal his business when he had the chance.

"Jonathan, you look so greedy! Unfortunately, most of the outstanding players here are famous and married! I advise you to give up on this idea, go on vacation, and enjoy your old age!"

Barnett snorted, "As far as I know, most of the outstanding players here are signed with a Chinese agency called Yuanshuai Sports! Chinese? They have done really well in business over the years, but what about football?

?Haha, it’s still a desert there!”

Mendes curled his lips and cursed "arrogant British guy" in his heart. He warned: "You are wrong this time! Although this is a Chinese company, their decision-makers are not simple!

Let me tell you a secret, Maritimo's head coach Gao Yuan is one of the major shareholders of this company! Do you think that with him here, you can pry away any player from Maritimo? Besides, I am also Maridi

Even if some of Mo's shareholders slip through the net, they will be taken away by me first, so don't have such wishful thinking!"

Barnett said disdainfully: "How good can a young Chinese man with no hair grow? Maybe we will sign him too!"

Mendes gloated, "If you want to give it a try, go ahead! However, as an old friend, I still have to remind you, don't be sold by him and count the money for him!"

As an insider, Barnett has of course heard of Gao Yuan's "remarkable deeds". Although he did not believe that a Chinese boy under 30 years old could be so powerful, he would not really take it lightly. He sneered.

, retorted: "I'm not like some people who, after being tricked by others, stick to them and try to do something to them!"

Mendes didn't take it seriously, "We are all businessmen, business is business, there are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests!"

The football was fierce on the court, and the two big guys in the VIP seats also had a heated exchange of words.

When he saw Niu Gensheng once again blocking Huang Xican's single shot with unconventional movements, without even allowing the opponent to shoot out, Barnett couldn't help but applaud along with the audience!

"Incredible, great! Although there are many excellent players on the field, the two goalkeepers who performed the best in this game are! Their future lies with a wealthy club, and I will sign them at all costs!"

Barnett seemed to blurt it out, but in fact he said it to Mendes, which means these two people are mine, don't take them away!

Mendes snorted coldly, "You don't have to think about Niu Gensheng! He is from Yuanshuai Sports! You can't poach him. As for Kleininsen? Haha, I am also very interested in him!"

In fact, Mendes did not tell the truth completely. In order to promptly acquire Jiang Jianzhang's equity, Gao Yuan roped in Mendes to invest in the shares. The condition promised at that time was that GESTIFUTE could own the Chinese players of the Maritimo team Yuanshuai Sports.

30% dividend income (not ownership).

In other words, if Niu Gensheng moves to a wealthy club in the future, 30% of his agent’s commission will belong to GESTIFUTE!

However, Barnett's attention was completely attracted by the second half of Mendez's sentence.

"Clenningsen is mine! I advise you not to ask for trouble! I am willing to pay any price for him, he is worth the price! In my hands, he will become the best goalkeeper in the world!" Barnett shouted

road.

Mendes knew that if he fought hard, he might not be a match for the wealthy Barnett. But he did not want to lose face and sneered: "Cleninsen is good, but the world's number one goalkeeper? Haha

, ask Niu Gensheng opposite if he agrees?"

"Niu? He is good! He has quick reactions, agility, and can make many incredibly difficult saves. But his basic skills and techniques are so poor! It has restricted his development. Not to mention the best in the world, he will be the best in the future.

It's hard to say whether a wealthy club can perform stably!" Barnett has read countless people and made his own judgment based on experience.

Mendes, of course, has to protect his players (albeit with only 30% dividend rights).

"Jonathan, you are really out of your mind! Techniques and basic skills can be practiced, but the body's instincts and flexible and agile skills are engraved in the DNA! Besides, what is technology? It is just the effective experience summed up by the predecessors.

That’s it! Real geniuses don’t need to be bound by experience and technology! For goalkeepers, being able to block the ball out of the goal is technology! Kleininsen is good, but he is just a good traditional goalkeeper! Niu Gensheng

Different, he is an epoch-making goalkeeper and a figure who will be recorded in history!"

Barnett looked at Mendes in shock, trying to see if his colleague was crazy or if he was really obsessed with it.

Of course, he didn't know that Gao Yuan and Mendes had reached a private agreement and that Niu Gensheng was part of his property. If he had known, he wouldn't have been surprised by what Mendes said. After all, as a football agent

Bragging is a basic skill for people. In order to promote his players, he boasted to buyers even more exaggeratedly and loudly!

The key to the problem is that he doesn't know the relationship between Mendes and Niu Gensheng, so he thinks that this may be what the other party is thinking. Who is Mendes? His vision is one of the best in football! If the other party really sees it that way

, then I really have to re-evaluate the future development of these two goalkeepers!

Mendes felt a little guilty after being looked at by Barnett. Could it be that his boasting was a bit too much?! In addition to safeguarding the value of his property, Mendes' remarks just now were also made to anger Barnett. This theory is very novel.

, so novel that it was formed approximately at the moment when I opened my mouth.

However, after saying this, Mendes was also a little surprised. What an attractive sales pitch this is! In the future, if you use this theory to promote Niu Gensheng, you will definitely be able to sell tens of millions more euros!

Well, Niu, you have to live up to your expectations! You have to behave in a way that is worthy of this rhetoric!
