"It is such a simple place, but there are many geniuses."

Rist has cooperated with many giants in European football, and Rist has visited their youth training camps.Even if it wasn't the youth training camps of those giants, Rist had seen a lot of the youth training camps of ordinary clubs.

But the youth training camp in front of him is simply too bad, very simple.It is a collection of temporary structures in the middle of a 10-acre area in the village of Marchwood on the outskirts of Southampton.The hardware conditions of this place are not even as good as many Czech clubs, but it is such a dilapidated youth training camp that has trained countless stars.

Let’s not talk about decades ago, let’s talk about the players like Shearer and Bridge trained in the past 20 years, and then Walcott who just moved to Arsenal, plus Bale in the hands of Ricester, and what will happen in the future? Oxlade-Chamberlain to Arsenal.Of course, it is not over, including Lallana, who is eyed by many people in the future, and Luke Shaw, who is known as the new Ashley Cole.

Each of these people is better than the other, and they are all famous players in English football.They all come from a youth academy, that is the Southampton youth academy.Southampton has no outstanding achievements in history, and the city of Southampton itself is not a big city.The urban population is around 20.But even so, Southampton's youth academy is very famous in England.

Rist is now sitting in his academy seat, watching the young players from Southampton's academy play there.Rist has already discovered a large number of good players here, not to mention Lallana who has already signed a professional contract, and Bell, who Rist is currently paying close attention to.This is an older player.Both of them are U19 players in the Southampton youth academy.

And below are the young players.Rist has already seen Chamberlain, who is only 13 years old, and Luke Shaw, who is only 11 years old.They all entered the Southampton Youth Academy for training before they were ten years old, and they are the real products of the Southampton Youth Academy.Except for them, Ricester found that the overall strength of the players in the Southampton youth academy is still good. They may not have such outstanding talents as Chamberlain and Luke Shaw, but there are many players who should be able to gain a foothold in the Premier League and the British Championship.

Envious, that was all Rist could say.What a waste of such a good youth academy.Southampton can't keep talent, Walcott has just been bought by Arsenal.Rist knew that Bell and Chamberlain would not be able to keep them in the future, and Lallana and Luke Shaw were the targets of other Premier League teams.Southampton simply cannot keep them.

"Rist, you also think our youth academy is very good."

Rist is going to Real Madrid now.Also accompanied by Calderon or Mijatovic.Even Rist currently has a bad relationship with Barcelona chairman Laporta.But as long as Rist arrives in Barcelona, ​​Barcelona will still be accompanied by Laporta or Begilistan.Not to mention a Championship club like Southampton.

Accompanying Rist now is Southampton's chairman Nicola Goetes, and Southampton's head coach George Burley.And Matt Collock from the Southampton youth academy.

"Yes. Your youth training camp is really good. It's just that your youth training camp is short of money. It's not as good as other clubs' youth training camps in terms of hardware."

"Ha ha."

Southampton chairman Nicola Goetes could only smile sarcastically.Southampton have been relegated since 04.The current financial situation of the club is going from bad to worse.The club's financial crisis is getting worse.

Now Southampton has received several warnings from the FA. If Southampton does not solve its own economic crisis, the FA may host the Southampton club.But Nicholas Gotts himself really has no choice.Originally Southampton was aiming for promotion to the Premier League club.A lot of players who were in the Premier League at the time were left behind, and they were all high-paid players.But they have not been able to upgrade for two consecutive seasons, so they can only sell away those high-paid players.Southampton can no longer afford their wages.

"Nicolas, I know a friend. He owns a 500-year-old brewery called Herder Beer. You should know."

"of course."

Nicola Gotez nodded.Of course he knows the brand of Herder beer, which is a beer brand with a history of 500 years.This year is the 2000th year of Herder beer.In the annual Beer Month "Beer Hunter" competition, Michael Jackson, the world's most respected beer expert, chose Herder beer in [-], which also brought Herder's brand to the world.

As a long-established Czech beer brand, it has sales outlets all over the world.Anyone who loves beer knows this brand.Held beer also occupies a large share in England.

"I can convince them to give you Southampton sponsorship."

"Really?"

Nicola Gotez was very happy.He would not think that Rist is here to amuse him, because Rist is not only a top agent in European football, but also a rich man with a high net worth.As Rist is the number one agent in the Czech Republic, Goetes knows that Rist's influence in the Czech Republic is definitely not small.There should be a lot of people who know each other, and it shouldn't be a big problem to know the owner of Herder Beer.

indeed so.Riester's influence in Europe and the world is limited to football, but Riester's domestic influence in the Czech Republic is not limited to football.Because Rist has a monopoly on Czech players, he and the Czech entertainment circle are also dominant figures.In addition, Rist is rich, and all kinds of relationships are intertwined. Rist has many connections in the political, business, and entertainment circles.These connections made him already a pivotal figure in the Czech Republic.Because of the popularity of football in the Czech Republic, many so-called political and business leaders advertise themselves as fans.

"Of course. I can persuade them to sponsor Southampton around £300m to £500m a year."

"call--"

Nicola Gotez's heart was pounding for a moment.Southampton used to be a Premier League club, but unfortunately it is now a mixed Championship club.Although they have financial problems now, they are not like Dortmund and Schalke 04 who owe hundreds of millions of euros in debt. It is just because their income is too low and they have retained some high-salary players, so they owe tens of millions of pounds. .

In fact, once Southampton upgrades their debts, they can pay off within a few years of saving money in the Premier League.But they haven't upgraded in two years, so the debt just keeps mounting.They have little income, so this debt continues to increase, not decrease.If you can get a sponsorship of 300 million pounds to 500 million pounds at this time, it would be great for a Championship club like Southampton.Even be able to get out of the current economic quagmire.

But Nicola Goetes is not stupid, he does not believe that Herder Beer has nothing to do with sponsoring them so much money.After all, even if such a company sponsors those Premier League clubs, it is only a small amount of money.And it's not an ordinary Premier League club, but sponsoring those Premier League giants is only this price.How can Southampton, a small Championship club, get such a high sponsorship.

Nicola Goetes looked at Rist and asked, "Rist, I don't think they are unconditional."

"Ha ha."

Rist smiled, looked at Gotts and said, "Nicolas, there are not too many conditions. The main reason they are willing to sponsor is because you Southampton have produced a large number of talents, and he is very important to your youth academy. Have confidence."

Nicola Gotes didn't speak, but was thinking about the meaning of Riester's words.He knew that the so-called sponsorship of Herder beer to Southampton must be what Rist meant.Since it was Rist's intention, it must be Rist's request.

Geniuses come forth in large numbers?Youth training camp?Slowly, Nicola Gotez's face became serious, because he gradually understood what Rist meant.Rist is an agent. What's the point of him paying attention to other people's youth training camps?

"Rist, what do they think of our youth academy?"

Rist smiled.It's good to talk to smart people, and Nicola Goetes understands the meaning behind Rist's words.Rist did not hide it, saying: "I am an agent, and I hope to dig out a few talented players in the Southampton youth training camp. I don't want to have my fancy players under my nose." , ran to someone else’s banner. Of course, the talent discovered in Southampton must be used by Southampton. I am a very professional agent and I will never do that kind of shameless thing.”

Speaking of which, Nicola Gotez fully understood what Rist meant.Rist is a player who hopes to occupy the entire Southampton youth academy. If it is normal, or even two years ago, or even a year ago, he would not agree.Because with the growing strength of agents, many clubs have begun to guard against these big-name agents.

Among these big-name agents, Rist is the top agent.Nicola Goetes is not afraid that it is fake that Rist directly threatens Southampton.But now Gottes is a little moved, because now Southampton seems to be difficult to upgrade within a year or two, and even in danger of relegation.

The first two years are the most suitable upgrade possibilities for Southampton.Because at that time Southampton still retained a lot of powerful players, and now those powerful players are gone, Southampton is a group of young players.It's not that easy to upgrade.If the current Southampton has no more income, it may really be managed and finally forced to relegation.

300 million pounds, 500 million pounds, for Southampton is really a blessing in disguise.Nicola Gotts thought for a long time, and said with difficulty: "Rist, this matter can continue to be discussed." (To be continued...)
