"Is it the fault of the nouveau riche, or the fault of Real Madrid!"

When news of Manchester City's transfer came out, many people complained about Manchester City and almost cursed him.Because not every league in European football is independent. On the contrary, with the deepening of commercialization of football, the major leagues in European football are becoming more and more closely connected.

If it was 15 or 20 years ago, what happened in one league would not affect other leagues very much.The league and the league are relatively independent and rarely affect each other.Even many players will not choose to play abroad.English players, Italian players, Spanish players, including German players, don't like going abroad very much now, which has a lot to do with the closed environment back then.They both like to stay in their league and play.But now if something happens in one league, it will soon affect other leagues.In particular, the emergence of the Bosman Act has brought everyone closer together.

It is precisely because of this that Manchester City's first transfer was made, and it was complained by countless giants in European football.Because Manchester City's first transfer was completed with Sparta Prague, a giant in the Czech League.Sparta Prague's main central defender Thiago Silva joined Manchester City at a high price of 700 million pounds.This transfer can be said to have shocked the entire European football world.

Many people are not optimistic about the pound this year, and there are a lot of international hot money who want to short the pound.But the pound has not fallen too fast so far.On the contrary, the pound has maintained its strength so far, but those who want to short the pound are happier.Because the pound is still strong now, and no one can stop it when it falls.Then the profit will be more.

Because the pound is still holding up.So the transfer fee is very high.Twenty-seven million pounds, converted into euros, is more than 700 million euros.A central defender, a player who has yet to prove himself in an important European league, turned out to be sold for more than 4000 million euros.What kind of price is this.Even the best defenders in the current Premier League, Serie A, and La Liga cannot be sold at such a high price.

Grandma, when did guards become so valuable.Last summer, Real Madrid paid 3000 million euros for Porto's Pepe, which made many clubs angry. I didn't expect Manchester City, an upstart, to do the same.Thiago Silva performed well in the Champions League this season, and entered the quarter-finals with Sparta Prague.But it can't be that outrageous.

这对于很多豪门强队的打击比较大。因为球员转会费的增长是可以攀比的。你皇马3000万欧元买了佩佩，曼城4000多万欧元买了蒂亚戈.席尔瓦。这会让欧足坛中后卫的价格大大增加。虽然不至于像皇马和曼城这样离谱。但也不会像以前那样便宜了。以前500万欧元的中后卫，现在想要买可能就是1000万欧元。而且他们会让很多出色的中后卫身价纷纷达到2000万欧元、3000万欧元。

At present, the most gnashing of teeth is the giants.Because they are the big players in the transfer market, and they were the ones who were hurt the most by this incident.Because they will sign in later.will encounter such a thing.They will be based on Pepe and Thiago Silva.At that time, the transfer fee will be greatly increased.But among the current European football giants.There are a few giants who have the strength to spend money like this.

But just as they were gnashing their teeth, a transfer came out.Or Manchester City, or Sparta Prague.Manchester City introduced Sparta Prague's main left-back Krarov for 600 million pounds.

"Rist. You are not kind. Those big teams in European football are scolding you."

Pini Zahavi shook his head.The first to be recruited in this matter was not other clubs, but the current Chelsea.Because Chelsea is eyeing Sparta Prague's right-back Ivanovic, this summer is definitely going to be introduced.

Speaking of Chelsea, there is no shortage of defenders.But last season, Terry and Carvalho were injured in turn, and Chelsea also lacked a good right back.Therefore, Ivanovic, who can play right back and central back, is a favorite.

Unexpectedly, such two transfers came out at this time.Thiago Silva £700 million and Krarov £600 million.So how much is Ivanovic, who is more famous than them and is the main right back of Sparta Prague, worth.This is a chain reaction. Krarov is already worth 600 million pounds, and Ivanovic can't be cheaper than him.

Originally, Chelsea hoped to introduce Ivanovic for around 1000 million pounds in the winter, but in the current market, it is difficult to win Ivanovic without 700 million pounds.Abramovich was also affected by the economic crisis brought about by the US subprime mortgage crisis, and his property began to shrink.Therefore, he does not spend money as lavishly as before.That's why Pini Zahavi has even more headaches.

"Hehe, Pini. All the agents in European football are thanking me."

This time, Rist can be said to have made a lot of money at once.Half of Thiago Silva's ownership is still in the hands of Rist, and Rist got 350 million pounds in the middle.In addition to his coming to Manchester City, Rist also received a commission of 300 million pounds from Manchester City.Moreover, Thiago Silva's annual salary in Sparta Prague was only 120 million euros, but after arriving in Manchester City, his weekly salary became [-] pounds.Salaries have increased by more than four times, almost five times.

Except for Thiago Silva, although Krarov is not a player of Rist, it was Rist who brought him to Sparta Prague.Rist holds 30.00% ownership, including Ivanovic.Sold for 600 million pounds, Rist got nearly 500 million pounds.In just two transfers, Rist earned more than 100 million pounds.

Relying on Manchester City this time, Rist fired up the player's worth, which really dissatisfied many rich and powerful teams.But they are even more dissatisfied with Real Madrid. If Real Madrid hadn't fired Pepe to 3000 million euros last summer, such an outrageous transfer would not have come out this time.For many agents and small teams, Rist is simply their savior.

Rist's move this time made all the agents in European football happy.The more problematic the transfer fee is.Brokers have more room to operate.The more space a broker can operate, the more brokerage commissions will be.For these agents, Rist is their weather vane.All of them have to thank Rist.

"But you made a bad start. In the future, the player's transfer fee will not be able to stop the car."

Pini Zahavi has no players, so the increase in player transfer fees does not benefit him much.However, the increase in transfer fees will increase the difficulty of player transfers.At that time, an agent like Pini Zahavi will be needed to operate, so it can be regarded as a beneficiary party.

"Pini, you are overestimating me. This bad start, one is Real Madrid, the other is Chelsea. If there is no Real Madrid, the transfer of superstars will not be such a sensation. The transfer fee will not be so inflated If there is no Chelsea, the European football transfer market would have shrunk long ago. Without Real Madrid and Chelsea, a central defender like Thiago can be sold for 700 million pounds, which is astronomical."

An agent like Rist is not a decisive force in the development of football.On the contrary, the agent is just a force following the development of football.In fact, the European football transfer market is so prosperous, the biggest contributor is Chelsea.

In 03 and 04.In fact, the transfer market in European football is slowly declining.Especially because of the decline of Serie A.The crazy upstarts in Serie A were all wiped out.So the transfer market at that time was not as prosperous as it was in the late 90s and early 21st century.Player transfer fees also began to become more rational, but at this time Abramovich came to the Premier League.As soon as he appeared, he supported the sluggish transfer market.Player transfer fees began to soar, which was also promoted by Chelsea at the time.

If the transfer fees of European football players have reached the current level.Real Madrid and Chelsea are definitely the first responsible persons.As for an agent like Rist, at most, there is some fueling.

"Let's not talk about this. Rist, tell me who is the most suitable coach for Chelsea at present?"

"Oh?"

Rist didn't understand what Pini Zahavi meant.Although Mourinho has only coached Chelsea for a little more than three years, but for the current Chelsea, Chelsea is Mourinho, and Mourinho is Chelsea.Mourinho is God in the eyes of Chelsea fans, and their favorite head coach for so many years is probably Mourinho.There are absolutely very few people who have left their mark on a club in such a short period of time like Mourinho.

Now that Mourinho is gone, Grant replaced Mourinho as the interim head coach.Grant's ability to become the interim head coach also benefited from the relationship of Pini Zahavi.Both of them are Israelis. Without Pini Zahavi, how could Grant, a coach with nothing, become the head coach of Chelsea.

But after all, Grant's reputation is too small. Now everyone in Chelsea, including everyone in European football, thinks that Grant is just a substitute.Now it's just a temporary housekeeper.

"Mendez recommended Scolari to Romain."

"Mendez is strong."

Rist answered irrelevant questions, but Pini Zahavi understood.Abramovich fired Mourinho because the two had conflicts over Shevchenko last season.But Mendes, as Mourinho's agent, was able to maintain a close relationship with Abramovich after Mourinho was fired.This ability is absolutely outstanding.

"Rist, do the math for me. In the current European football, which coach is more suitable for Chelsea than Scolari."

In a short period of time, Rist thought a lot, and quickly figured out what Pini Zahavi meant.Mourinho was fired, which is due to the contribution of Pini Zahavi.Pini Zahavi couldn't understand that Mendes wanted to monopolize Chelsea's transfer market, so he made some moves.Unexpectedly, Mendes still didn't give up. After Mourinho left, he wanted to recommend another head coach under his own banner.Do you really think of yourself as a soft persimmon, or when Chelsea is your own territory?Pini Zahavi is not easy to mess with.

Speaking of which, Scolari was originally the coach under Figel.Luxemborg did not perform well in the Brazilian national team, and because of the sale of the national team player quota, he provoked public outrage.Although every head coach of the Brazilian national team does this kind of thing, what Luxenberg did in Brazil was too blatant.Brazilian players who want to enter the Brazilian national team, even some big-name players, need to pay Luxemborg, otherwise he dares to brush them off.Luxenberg offended too many people by doing this, so he really provoked public outrage, and finally stepped down sadly.

Luxenberg stepped down, but Figel didn't want to give up the big cake of the Brazilian national team, so he pushed Scolari out again.At that time, when Figer was at his strongest, the head coach of the Brazilian national team could also decide.It's a pity that after the World Cup in Korea and Japan, Figel was hit hard, and Scolari also moved to the Portuguese national team.So he left Figel and became the coach under Mendes.

Mendez is so bullish.During Mourinho's time, he began to exclude other agents from intervening in Chelsea. Mourinho left and wanted to use Scolari to continue to control Chelsea's transfer market.Of course, Pini Zahavi, as Chelsea's queen agent, would not agree.However, Scolari's performance is very good and his reputation is great. At present, there are not many head coaches who match him in world football.

"Pini, what's there to think about. Tell me about Scolari's achievements at the club?"

"Rist, Scolari has two Copa Libertadores champions in South America."

"Hehe, Pini. That is the champion of the Copa Libertadores, not the Champions League. Apart from coaching South American clubs, Scolari's other achievements have been achieved in the national team. A successful head coach in South America, in European football Failure abounds."

Rist shook his head.Scolari's reputation is great, but his achievements are more based on the Brazilian national team and the Portuguese national team.As for his coaching achievements in South America, he is still a newcomer to European football.

"Pini, since Mendes recommends Scolari, you recommend Ancelotti. Ancelotti is also a Champions League champion coach. He has coached Juventus and Milan. No better than Scolari."

"Ancelotti?"

"Yeah. Ancelotti's life is very difficult now, you just have to contact him in the past."

Although Rist said that Scolari was worthless, his results were indeed outstanding.In particular, he has achieved good results in leading the Portuguese national team, which added a lot of points to him.At present, there are not many coaches who can defeat Scolari, and Ancelotti is one of them.

"This is a good candidate." (To be continued...)
