"Rist, why are you here?"

This is the La Masia training camp, which is the training ground for the Barcelona b team.This place is the place of Barcelona's greatest wealth, and countless talented stars have emerged from here.

Let's not talk about the past, but let's talk about the Barcelona youth players who became famous after entering the 21st century.Not to mention Valdez, Puyol, Xavi, and Iniesta, there are quite a few people living outside.Just like Fabregas, the core midfielder of Arsenal, Arteta, the core midfielder of Middlesbrough, Reina, the main goalkeeper of Liverpool, Luis Garcia of Atletico Madrid, etc., are all from Lama. West Asia youth training camp.

Of course, it is definitely not Harvey and Iniesta who made La Masia famous in European football, but a living pearl.The coach Wenger has a pair of evil eyes, he poached Cesc Fabregas from La Masia.Later, Fabregas achieved great success, which shocked the entire European football world.Wenger told everyone in European football that there are a group of talented players in Spain and La Masia, and there is no transfer fee to poach them.

The success of Cesc Fabregas made more scouts focus on La Masia.They all want to dig a new Cesc Fabregas, so Barcelona is also very nervous.But it's useless to be nervous, the Premier League team keeps poaching people from La Masia.Of course, Wenger is the one who digs the most people. Everyone is digging players from Barcelona's youth training.

So angry Barcelona began to take some precautions.General agents and scouts are not allowed to enter the training ground of the Barcelona b team casually.But for those scouts and agents who come here, the training ground cannot come in, but there are still ways to observe.After all, the B teams of these Spanish clubs all play in the Spanish low-level leagues.There are plenty of opportunities to observe their performance.

Therefore, there are very few unfamiliar faces here in the Barcelona b team.Of course for Rist.It is not too difficult to get in here.Those who can enter here are agents with unusual ties to Barcelona.

"It's a big name here. I recently heard that you and Guinness are scouting for talented players here, so I wanted to come and have a look."

"Rist, it's a joke."

Pere Guardiola shook his head.Although La Masia has a great reputation, Rist has never lacked talented players.To Rist's current position.It is even possible to train players by itself like some clubs.There are countless talented players under his hands.Even Riester currently has a top youth training camp in the Czech Republic that ranks among the top in European football.Therefore, unless a top talent against the sky appeared, how could Rist come to La Masia at will.

Pere Guardiola is the brother of Guardiola, the current head coach of the Barcelona b team.Guardiola retired in November 2006 and took over the Barcelona b team in 11.The Barcelona b team was relegated last season.Relegated to the Spanish fourth tier.However, under the leadership of Guardiola this season, they should be able to upgrade to the Spanish C League.

"Of course not. I know you just took Thiago Alcantara. If you were slower, maybe I would have shot. This kid is a combination of Harvey and Iniesta. Recently Gine He also took 14-year-old Gerard Deulofeu, who I saw was a genius."

During the period of Nunes and Gaspart, the most powerful agent in Barcelona was the famous agent Mingolia.He used to be Barcelona's assistant coach and the earliest agent in Spain.This person is very low-key in the current European football and does not have much reputation.But he was also one of the top agents in European football back then. Barcelona introduced Maradona, Stoichkov, Romario, Rivaldo, and Ronaldo.It's all set up by this person.

Even in history, Messi was able to go to Barcelona because of his support.Although Messi was a genius at the beginning.But Barcelona did not want to sign him either.Later, many people said that Messi's trial training moved the Barcelona executives.In fact, it is not that easy at all.Messi was only 13 years old at the time. No matter how talented he was, Barcelona didn't want to burden too much.

At that time, Messi's father wanted Barcelona to pay for Messi's treatment.And the living expenses of the Messi family in Spain.Of course Barcelona would not agree to such a condition. A 13-year-old genius, for Barcelona, ​​there is no guarantee that he will become a talent in the future.It was precisely because of Mingoria's support at this time.It was only then that Barcelona President Gaspart was persuaded.But even so, there are many high-level people in Barcelona who don't care about Messi, so that Messi and his family have no income at all in the first year.The vice president of Barcelona at the time did not sign where it was supposed to be signed, so Messi could not get money from Barcelona in the first year.Therefore, only Messi and his father stayed in Spain at that time, and the rest of the family had to return to Argentina.

Moreover, Messi's official contract has not been signed for a long time, and it has been delayed for almost a year.It was not until Messi was 14 years old that he successfully signed a formal contract under the intervention of Gaspart.If there was no Mingolia at that time, Barcelona would not care about Messi at all.And even if Messi stays, it is impossible to stay in Barcelona.It can be said that Goliath is Messi's Bole, the person Messi should be most grateful for.

Mingolia, Nunez, and Gaspart have very good personal relationships, and have not participated in the Barcelona transfer except for some important transfers.He has long since switched careers as a football commentator, and he is also a well-known football critic in Spain.If he has not quit, then the current transfer of Barcelona is really out of reach of other agents.

But it's different now.As Mingoria did not interfere with Barcelona's transfer, many agents began to gather in Barcelona.Among these people, there are two people who are closest to Barcelona.

One is Carvajal, who not only owns Valdes, but also collects talented players in the Barcelona youth training camp.Not to mention Fabregas, he just won a 14-year-old talented player.That is Gerard Deulofeu, who is known as Ronaldinho's successor in Barcelona's current youth team.

The other one is Pere Guardiola in front of him.After Guardiola's dream Sanyi soared into the sky in history, he also began to become famous quickly.But in fact, Pere Guardiola is also well-known in the Barcelona team.Because Guardiola himself was a Barcelona star in his player era, and he was hailed as the "king" by Barcelona fans.With this relationship.Although Pere Guardiola is not too strong, he is still able to mix with ease in the Barcelona youth training camp.

And Pere Guardiola's own ability is not bad.He was part of Russell's team when he was a Nike executive.When Russell took over Barcelona, ​​he also came to Barcelona.But he did not become a top barca.Instead became a broker.Then find talented players in the Barcelona echelon and let them become their own players.Recently, he has just recruited the outstanding "new Harvey" in the Barcelona echelon, the 17-year-old Thiago Alcantara.He even obtained Iniesta's portrait rights by virtue of his connections.

"We're all just playing around."

Not bad in Barcelona though.But Pere Guardiola is self-aware.Compared with Riester's huge player base, the players he has are not a fraction of Riester's.Even Riester has more world-class players than Pere Guardiola has in total.The two are not on the same level at all.

"Today's geniuses are tomorrow's superstars, so don't underestimate yourself. Wherever you are like me, you are all worrying now."

"what happened?"

Pere Guardiola asked suspiciously when he saw that Rist was frowning tightly, as if something was embarrassing.There are still such embarrassing things for a manager who has reached the level of Rist.

"Didn't it be said recently that Mourinho is going to take over Barcelona? Think about it, if you follow Mourinho's defensive counterattack style at Chelsea, Rio should be inferior to Robben at Chelsea. I let Rio Came to Barcelona. Because Barcelona's short-passing style is very suitable for him. But Mourinho is here. What about my Leo? Do you want to leave Barcelona? Tell me how good it would be if Josep became the head coach of Barcelona. Sure We will continue to carry forward Barcelona's tradition of possession of the ball and short passes."

Seeing Rist's distressed look, Pere Guardiola was stunned for a moment.At present, there are several candidates for Barcelona's head coach, one of which is the most popular Mourinho.The other is Villarreal's head coach Manuel Pellegrini, and Getafe's head coach Laudrup.Of course, Guardiola of the Barcelona b team is also on the list of candidates.

In the survey of Barcelona fans.More than half of them support Mourinho's entry.At this time, there are not so many conflicts between Mourinho and Barcelona fans, and even Barcelona fans welcome Mourinho's arrival.The second support of the fans is Guardiola.As for Pellegrini and Laudrup, their approval ratings are low.

Hearing Rist's distress, Pere Guardiola nodded.Indeed, as Rist said, if Messi plays a defensive counterattack, it is really possible that he is not as good as Robben.It is also possible to be distressed for Messi.

"Josep, there is no hope. Mourinho is basically settled."

If Guardiola can become the head coach of Barcelona, ​​Pere Guardiola is of course happy.But judging from the current situation, it is basically impossible.He is very clear that Laporta and the others have contacted Mourinho, and the two parties have basically reached an agreement.As for Guardiola, he was very famous as a player, but he is a rookie as a coach.Barcelona is also a giant in European football, how could it be possible to coach Barcelona.

"That's why I'm distressed. Doesn't it mean that Cruyff doesn't like Mourinho? At such an important moment, why didn't he show any sign at all. Mourinho is here, I really don't know how to use Leo .”

Rist shook his head, showing a kind of helplessness.However, Pere Guardiola's eyes lit up with Rist's casual words.It's different from the period of Nunes and Gaspart. At that time, they wanted to suppress Cruyff, so they suppressed Cruyff.They didn't really regard Cruyff as the overlord of Barcelona.

But Laporta is different.He respects Cruyff very much. After he became the chairman of Barcelona, ​​he immediately made Cruyff the honorary chairman of Barcelona.Rijkaard was made the chairman of Barcelona in the first place, and there was Cruyff's reason in it.Although Laporta dare not say that he will obey Cruyff's words, Cruyff's influence in Barcelona is very great.

Cruyff's dislike of Mourinho is well known in European football.And Cruyff likes Guardiola, Pere Guardiola is also very clear.Guardiola himself was single-handedly selected by Cruyff, and later became the core midfielder of the Dream Team.Whether Guardiola was a player or later became a coach, he was deeply influenced by Cruyff.

Seeing Pere Guardiola's thoughtful expression, Rist showed a confident smile.Rist himself has no ability to change Laporta's mind, and Barcelona's selection of coach Rist cannot be involved.If you can't do it yourself, find someone who can.

There is only one person who can change Barcelona's coaching process, and that is Barcelona's emperor Cruyff.Regardless of the fact that Mourinho and Barcelona have already made a verbal agreement, as long as Cruyff intervenes, it will change.What Cruyff disliked the most was Mourinho's style of football.

"That No. [-] player is not bad."

"Oh? Ah, his name is Christian Tello, and he's really talented. But he already has an agent. You should know Josep's former agent, Orobitge."

"kindness."

Rister nodded.When Orobito was serving as Guardiola's agent nearly 20 years ago, he was not very famous and his strength was not very strong.Of course, the current Orobiteg is not well-known, and his strength is average.However, as Guardiola created the Dream Three, Orobitger rose and became the later European football agent predator.Many talented new stars that appeared in Barcelona at that time belonged to his players.Unexpectedly, he has already started to reach out in the Barcelona echelon.

"Forget it. It seems that La Masia's outstanding talent has been divided up by you guys. I have no chance."

After chatting with Pere Guardiola about some digressions, Rist left the training ground of the Barcelona b team.Pere Guardiola looked at Rist's back and thought a lot.

Is Rist really just here to see the La Masia players, or...Pere Guardiola also had a smile on his face, no one in this world is an idiot.When you treat others as fools, others see you as fools too.Smart people like Rist and Pere Guardiola have already understood their respective meanings.

Pere Guardiola thought about it, and thought of his younger brother's agent Orobitegger.Although Orobito is not well-known, he is definitely outstanding in terms of ability.This kind of thing should go to him.
