Legendary Broker

( ) "Mr. Czerny, hello. You are younger than I thought."

Rist was going to talk about Ronaldinho, but Rist did not contact his club at all, but instead contacted Ronaldinho's agent.

Ronaldinho's agent is his brother Robert Assis.But the current Robert Assis is still a junior. He used to be a player of the Gremio team, but his achievements were not very high.After becoming an agent for his younger brother, because Ronaldinho is not a very famous player now, he is nothing more than a small agent in Brazil.

Therefore, when negotiating with Ronaldinho this time, apart from Robert Assis, there was another person who came to contact Rist.Wagner Ribeiro, an agent who is well-known in Brazilian football, European football, and African football.

"Mr. Ribeiro, hello. I have known you for a long time."

Wagner Ribeiro is a Portuguese, born in Lisbon.Because I am Portuguese, I have a natural connection with Brazil.With this natural connection, he set up a channel for Brazilian players, which is the channel for Brazilian players to transfer to Portugal.With this, he quickly became a very good agent in Brazilian football.After becoming famous in Portugal through Brazilian players, he extended his tentacles to the African continent, especially Cameroon football.

Although Ribeiro is an agent, he has made great contributions to the development of Cameroonian football. It can be said that Ribeiro must be mentioned in the history of Cameroonian football development.In the early 90s, the friendly match between the England national team and the Cameroon national team was facilitated by Ribeiro.Also because of Ribeiro's development of Cameroonian football, he has a good relationship with many Cameroonian players.Like Songoo and Gremi, who are currently playing in European football, and Moroccan player Naibet are all players under his banner.

From Brazil, Ribeiro will be Kaka's agent when Kaka transfers to Milan in the future.There is also Robinho's transfer to Real Madrid, which was facilitated by Ribeiro.

Ribeiro's agent is different from other Brazilian agents.Other Brazilian agents, especially those like Figel, look for players who have shown talent at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and then directly buy out their ownership.Including the current Argentine broker predator Muscardi is also such a routine.After taking ownership, they will resell the players to Europe.

But Ribeiro is different.He didn't even let go of talented nine-year-old or ten-year-old players.He has already posted such a young player, paying for him to buy clothes, buy delicious food, and send him to school, using this method to get in touch with those young players in the slums.Then when they grow up, they will naturally become their managers.He will never use money to buy out the ownership of young players when they are young.Instead, he kept cultivating feelings and finally became their agent.

He has a very good relationship with Brazilian clubs such as Sao Paulo and Gremio. Even if their players are not his own players, he will maintain a very friendly relationship.When they need anything, he will help if he can.Like Ronaldinho, he is not his player.But because Robert Assis lacked the ability in this area, Ribeiro came to help.

Do you think that Ribeiro is a good agent and cannot be better?He has a good relationship with many players in Brazilian football and has a good reputation outside.Compared with Figel, Muscardi and the others, their reputation is many times better.But this is definitely not all Ribeiro.

Like many Brazilian agents, Ribeiro has the same characteristics.That is, during the transfer process, he only valued his own interests, and didn't think much about players.

Let's just talk about the most typical transfers, the first is Kaka's transfer.After Kaka moved to Milan, he quickly changed his agent and let his father be his agent.Although it seems that he is trying to fight for his own best interests, in fact, during Kaka's transfer, Ribeiro's buddy lowered Kaka's salary, and then enriched himself from it.And after Kaka performed well, Ribeiro did not fight for Kaka's interests, but used this opportunity to win for himself.

There is also the transfer of Robinho.Robinho's transfer has gone through several rounds and delays. He has been in contact with Real Madrid since 04 but has not been able to transfer for more than a year.The reason for this is that Ribeiro's interests cannot be guaranteed, so at the beginning they were very active in moving Robinho to Real Madrid, but when they saw that their own interests could not be guaranteed, they began to obstruct it.Leading to Robinho's move to Real Madrid back and forth.

Therefore, although Ribeiro's reputation is very good, Rist will not underestimate him at all.They are all thousand-year-old foxes, so you don't have to play Liaozhai anymore.

"I'm here on behalf of PSV. Next to me is Mr. Imos, PSV's negotiator. PSV are very interested in Ronaldinho."

Ribeiro was expressionless, as if he had no interest in PSV.But Rist still saw a trace of excitement in the eyes of Robert Assis next to him.

Rist smiled.The Bosman Act has had a great impact on the Eredivisie, causing the Eredivisie to become a second-tier league in European football.But for Brazilian players, the Eredivisie is still the best league.Especially Eindhoven has had two Brazilian football idols, Romario and Ronaldo.

So Robert Assis was very excited.That was the club where PSV, Romario and Ronaldo stayed.His younger brother was about to become a PSV player, so he couldn't help but agreed, but he saw Ribeiro sitting there firmly, so he could only be honest.

"Mr. Czerny, I am very happy that PSV has taken a fancy to Ronaldo. But he is still young, only now. Leaving Brazil so soon will not be of any benefit to his career."

Ribeiro's calmness made Rist laugh out loud.Then he said: "Mr. Ribeiro, Ronaldo has already arrived in Eindhoven when he was younger than Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho's talent is no worse than him, and there is no problem in landing in Eindhoven. The more important thing is that the Eredivisie is a paradise for young talents. Unlike other leagues, the Dutch league is the most suitable for young talents to play. Ronaldinho will follow in the footsteps of Romario and Ronaldo and grow into a world football player superstar."

"But he is still too young. How he will be valued at PSV and how he will develop is unknown."

Ribeiro didn't seem to be in a hurry. Anyway, he didn't have any anxiety or excitement because of PSV's arrival.

"Mr. Ribeiro, Eindhoven attaches great importance to him. I can let you in on a little secret. Eindhoven will soon change their coach. Bobby Robson will become the coach next season. The head coach of Eindhoven. You should be familiar with him. He is one of Ronaldo's mentors. He is very good at cultivating young players. Ronaldinho will definitely shine in his hands of."

This is indeed a very sudden news.Even Ribeiro, who has always been calm, squinted his eyes because Bobby Robson was too famous.This is a famous coach with outstanding reputation in European football at present, and he is indeed unique in cultivating young players.Of course, Rist will not release false news, because Eindhoven's performance this season is really bad.Arnesen was going to save the situation, especially because he would leave a large number of outstanding players in the summer, which made him very anxious. .

So he thought of the coach Bobby Robson, who was inextricably linked with Eindhoven.He hopes that Robson will come to help PSV stabilize the situation.For the sake of friendship in the past, Bobby Robson agreed to Arnesen. Robson will become the head coach of Eindhoven next season.

After hearing that Robson was going to be PSV's head coach, Ribeiro was very satisfied.And Robert Assis next to him was already extremely excited.It's a great thing that my younger brother can go to Eindhoven and listen to the teachings under Bobby Robson.

"So what kind of salary is PSV willing to give?"

When Ribeiro said this, Rist knew that this matter was not a big problem.In South America, as long as a broker like Ribeiro agrees to the transfer of his players, there will not be too many problems in the transfer of players.Because in Brazilian football, the agent is stronger than the club, and the agent is stronger than the club.

Although Ronaldinho is currently a talented player in Brazilian football, he is not on the same level as players like Gilberto Silva and Marcos Senna.But for the Brazilian club, it is still just a talented player.Everything is lacking in Brazilian football, that is, there is no shortage of football talent.As long as the price is right, they don't have the concept of not for sale.

So Rist smiled, and nodded with the Eindhoven negotiator who came next to him.What kind of contract PSV Eindhoven gave Ronaldinho has nothing to do with Rist.Rist came to Brazil this time because these two players were recommended by Rist to Eindhoven, so they followed.

Rist took a good look at Ribeiro while representatives of PSV talked about their salary.Ribeiro is really different. He has little benefit in such a transfer.But he still does his best for Ronaldinho.It also made Rist feel a little bit, what does the agent have.In addition to the players under your own banner, you must also maintain a good relationship with those big-name players, big-name coaches, and big-name agents. This is the performance of influence.

Although Ribeiro is not Ronaldinho's agent, Ronaldinho will definitely remember Ribeiro's goodness after he becomes famous in the future.When the time comes for Ribeiro to sell players, Ronaldinho can help put in good words.The recommendation of a Uranus player to the club must be highly valued by the club.Ribeiro is right.
