After calling Ricardo, Rist called Mark Kulu.Because Rist thought of buying the next club in Belgium, it was because of Marc Kulu.

Mark Kulu is a very special figure in Côte d'Ivoire, and the young talents in Côte d'Ivoire are basically under his control.Many football clubs in Côte d'Ivoire have poor youth training camps, including Ivorian giants like Abidjan Mimosa, and there are not many players in their own youth training camps.They are also unwilling to invest in youth training, because they think youth training is useless.Half of the players currently playing in the professional league of Côte d'Ivoire are from Marc Kulou's football school.

It can be said that the young generation of Côte d'Ivoire is under the control of Marc Kulu.Marc Kulu's football academy, those teenage players are the most talented players of their age.With this football school, Mark Kulu has mastered most of the players in Côte d'Ivoire.Rist hopes to do bulk business with Mark Kulu.It is no longer a business like a two, three and four. After Riester has a foothold in the Belgian league, Riester hopes to do a large amount of business.

Mark Kulu has mastered almost all the talented players in Côte d'Ivoire, but there are not many transfer channels for his players.In fact, he has a best friend, that is Wenger.It's a pity that Wenger is now the head coach of Arsenal. There is no domestic player in Côte d'Ivoire who can directly transfer to a strong team like Arsenal.

Ivorian players basically need to go through another procedure.It is now that small clubs practice, and then they are spotted by strong teams.If you go directly to a European giant club.Although this possibility is almost non-existent, even if they do go, they will be eliminated by the competition of wealthy families.Europe's top leagues are not so easy to mix.

Therefore, Rist hopes to monopolize the players from Côte d'Ivoire to Europe through Mark Kulu.Of course it will not be enough if there is only one Belgian club in the future, but for now it is possible.Because the current Ivorian football is not that good, so there will not be too many capable players to play in Europe.

"Rist, you move very quickly."

Mark Kulu was really surprised.Unexpectedly, less than a year after leaving Côte d'Ivoire, Rist has already opened up a situation in Belgium, and even bought a Belgian club himself.He still admires this kind of work efficiency.

"How about it, Mark. In the future, if you have a good player, remember to introduce it to me. What I want is a talented player. As for the price, don't worry, I will definitely not treat you badly."

"I know. By the way. Rist. Have you found a manager for the club?"

"not yet."

"How about I recommend a coach to you?"

The reason Rist called Mark Kulu was simple.I hope he can keep all the talented Ivorian players for himself.Rist wants to be a second-hand dealer, put the talented players of Côte d'Ivoire in Belgium to practice, and then resell them to the top European leagues.Unexpectedly, Mark Kulu would introduce himself to the coach.

"Who?"

Riester was very curious.Which coach will Mark Kulu introduce himself to?

"Omar Troussier."

Rist took a deep breath, but he didn't expect that the coach recommended by Mark Kulu turned out to be Troussier.Chinese fans are most impressed by Troussier.Because he used to be the head coach of the Japanese national team.And the performance of leading the team is very good.In the 02 World Cup, he led the Japanese team to the top sixteen of the World Cup.

"He has just left the South African national team. He is currently out of work."

Rist did not reply immediately, because Rist was still in shock.Troussier is a good head coach, and the most important thing is that he is a French coach.It has a very close relationship with Côte d'Ivoire.

Troussier had been to Côte d'Ivoire ten years ago, and he is one of the few European coaches to coach in Africa.It is also one of the few foreign coaches in Ivorian football who is highly respected by Ivorian football.He brought them three league titles in three seasons in Abidjan Mimosa, so he was hired by the Ivorian Football Federation as the head coach of the national team.During his five years in Côte d'Ivoire, he has made outstanding contributions to the development of football in Côte d'Ivoire.It is precisely because of his prestige in Côte d'Ivoire that he was able to help Mark Kulu run a football school in Côte d'Ivoire.

The relationship between Mark Kulu, Wenger and Troussier is a bit complicated.First of all, Mark Kulu and Wenger are good friends, and their relationship can be traced back to when Wenger was a player.They played in the same team at that time, and of course Wenger was Mark Kulu's follower in the player era.Compared with Marc Coulubi, who won the French Footballer of the Year, Wenger's career is complete shit.But their relationship in the player era was very good.Later Mark Kulu became the head coach earlier than Wenger, and then invited Wenger to be his assistant coach.Therefore, the friendship between the two of them has existed for more than 20 years and almost 30 years.

On the other hand, Wenger and Troussier attended classes in the same class when they were taking the coaching certificate. In the end, they got the coaching certificate together. They are considered classmates.With this relationship, Wenger and Troussier also have a deep friendship.It is also because of this that Mark Kulu and Troussier can also know each other.Marc Kulu's current power in Côte d'Ivoire was initially due to Troussier's prestige in Côte d'Ivoire football.

Now Marc Kulu introduced Troussier to Rist.

"Mark, coach Troussier has just left the position of the South African national team, will he be willing to coach the club now?"

Troussier led the South African national team to the World Cup, but did not appear in the group stage and was fired by the South African Football Association.It is true that he is at home now. According to history, he will become the head coach of the Japanese national team a year later.

Of course, Troussier's becoming the head coach of the Japanese national team has something to do with Wenger.Wenger once coached in the Japanese League, and his coaching level has been affirmed by the entire Japanese football world.Up to the Japanese Football Association, down to the Japanese fans, they all pay homage to Wenger.Therefore, one year later, the Japanese Football Association hopes to invite Wenger to become the head coach of the Japanese national team to lead the Japanese team to the 02 World Cup.

But Wenger was doing well at Arsenal at the time, so he rejected the invitation of the Japanese national team.Then I introduced my good friend, Troussier who was still at home at that time.The Japanese Football Association contacted Troussier under Wenger's recommendation, and then appointed Troussier.In fact, this is often the case in football.The network of relationships is dense, and it is difficult for people without certain connections to move forward.

"Yes. He has been coach of the national team for more than five years, and he has always wanted to manage a club. However, Rist, he has a bad temper. He doesn't like the higher-ups interfering with his work. "

"That's no problem. So, can you help me with Coach Troussier?"

Mark Kulu quickly helped Rist contact Troussier.Rist met Troussier in France.

"Coach Troussier, hello."

Although Troussier has been a coach for almost ten years, he is only 43 years old now.He started as a head coach when he was less than 30 years old, so he can be regarded as an old coach.But in Europe, he is not well known.Wenger, who got his coaching certificate at the same time as him, is basically a rookie coach in Europe.At present, for players, the national team is indeed a place to become famous. If there is no World Cup, it will be a great pity for many superstars.

But it's different for the head coach.Just like Uhlin, who has a high prestige in the Czech Republic, led the Czech national team to win the runner-up in the European Cup and the quarter-finals of the World Cup.But when he goes out, no one thinks that his status will be higher than those club coaches who have won the Champions League, UEFA Cup, and top league titles.

"Mr. Cherny, hello."

Troussier was going to rest, but received a call from Marc Kulu.They are good friends, that's why he came out to meet Rist.

"Coach Troussier, our company has just bought the Mechelen club. The Mechelen club is a strong team in the Belgian First Division, but the main thing is that there will be several Ivorian players in this club. Their age They are not big, but they are all very good players. I know you have a high reputation in Côte d’Ivoire football, and I have always admired your coaching level. So I hope you can become a member of the Mechelen club Head coach."

What Rist said was bullshit.Because it will be the case when any club invites a certain head coach.Regardless of Sanqi 21, let's brag about it first.

Troussier also has enough experience, so he replied with a smile: "I heard from Mark. For me, my request is very simple, that is, the club cannot interfere with my work."

Rister nodded.Although Rist is not planning to turn the Mechelen club into a Belgian giant, he still knows this.The head coach is the head coach, and he must have sufficient authority.

"Coach Troussier, I can fully promise you on this point. No one in the club will interfere with the team's training and tactics. But our club also has some requirements?"

"You said."

Troussier doesn't seem to be facing a club owner at all, on the contrary he looks very strong.But for Rist, the personality of the head coach has nothing to do with him.Because he never thought of interfering with the work of the head coach.

"The club will have a lot of young players. I hope Coach Troussier can train them a lot."

That's what Rist is for.The purpose of Rist buying players is to be a second-hand dealer. Of course, the coach is hired to train young players.

"It's okay, and it should be."

Troussier had already communicated with Mark Kulu before coming here, and knew Rist's thoughts.Therefore, he is mentally prepared. He has not coached a club in Europe, so he just wants to test the waters here in Riester. (to be continued..)
