"exactly the opposite."

Roig is already in his 60s. He has worked in the mall for many years and has been the chairman of Valencia for many years.But he was still confused by Rist. Didn't Rist come to him because he hoped to recommend Benitez by virtue of his status as the majority shareholder of Valencia?If not, what are you looking for yourself?

"Francisco, you should know that Jaime Otti is interested in Argentine coach Cooper."

Roeg nodded.It's no secret inside Valencia that Otti is very interested in Cooper, who is currently in Mallorca.Otti is the current sports director of Valencia and holds great power in Valencia. More importantly, Otti is the representative of Valencia's second largest shareholder Soler.

Valencia's board is very problematic at the moment.Because Roeg is the largest shareholder of Valencia, he owns 30.00% of Valencia's shares.Valencia's second largest shareholder is Soler, who owns 30.00% of Valencia's shares.The two of them own about the same amount of shares.

The Roig family is very prestigious in Valencia, because their family has been rooted in Valencia for 200 years.Similarly, the Soler family is also a local noble family in Valencia.From other aspects, the Soler family is no worse than the Roeg family, because the Soler family is the overlord of the local construction industry in Valencia.After Franco's death, their family made their fortune in real estate in the 70s. Currently, their family owns more than ten construction and development companies.Half of the local construction market in Valencia is controlled by the Soler family.

The two of them have been fighting openly and secretly since they became the major shareholders of Valencia.But at the beginning, it was Roeg who had the upper hand.Amongst things in Valencia.Roig is firmly suppressing Soler, and Soler has almost no say.But what I didn't expect was that a big event happened in 1996.Valencia's first star Mijatovic was activated by Real Madrid's liquidated damages clause.Just like the chaos in Barcelona for several years after Figo defected to Real Madrid, Valencia also encountered the same process.

It was also because of what happened that Roeg was forced to resign and left the position of Valencia chairman.Therefore, Soler seized this opportunity and immediately made a strong attack. When Roig was attacked by Valencia fans, he placed many of his own people in the Valencia high-level.Jaime Otti is an old courtier of the Soler family, who was placed in the upper echelons of Valencia by Soler.

To be honest, for the current Valencia club, although Roig is the largest shareholder.But the influence, strength, and momentum are far inferior to those of two years ago.But Rist is still willing to cooperate with Roeg.Because compared to Roig, the Sorel family is an upstart.In history, after Soler became the chairman of Valencia, Valencia almost fell into a doomed situation.Sorel was incompetent and hesitant.Not decisive at all.Sorel is a dandy.Such people are not Rist's collaborators.

"I mean you approach Coach Cooper. Then recommend Coach Cooper."

After Roig listened to Rist's words, his eyes suddenly became very sharp.Lightning can be seen in the eyes of Rist.After Rist finished speaking, he ignored Roig's expression.Instead, he took a sip of the red wine in his glass.

Roeg understood exactly what Rist meant.Rist's intention of looking for himself today is obviously to prevent Cooper from taking over Valencia.And it is clear that Rist is not optimistic about Roig's energy in Valencia.Although Roig also understood, it still made Roig quite uncomfortable for Rist to say it so nakedly.

After all, he is already in his 60s, and Rist is not yet 30.In front of such a young man, Roeg suddenly found himself really old.So Roig looked straight at Rist, and found that Rist was still calm.So he smiled and said: "Rist, if coach Benitez takes over Valencia, what can I get?"

"Francisco, I know that Valencia's president is unpaid. But I'm sure you've always wanted to be Valencia's president again."

Unlike the chairman position of Real Madrid, the chairman position of Real Madrid is paid, and the salary is not low.But the chairmanship of Valencia is entirely voluntary, and the chairman of Valencia is not paid.However, they have always been competing for the position of Valencia chairman, because this position will greatly increase their popularity and their status.

That's why Roeg and Soler compete for this position like this.Roeg was devastated by the departure of Mijatovic.But he has not given up his shares because he wants to return to the position of chairman of Valencia.

"Can you help me?"

"Francisco, when Raphael becomes the head coach of Valencia, I can assure you that Valencia's peak period has arrived. If once Rafael wins the championship in Valencia, then I will convince La Phil and the players publicly support you. I think when you add your strength in Valencia and the support of the team, it should not be a big problem to become the chairman of Valencia again."

Everything is the same.Both require mutual benefit, and there is no reason in the world to only ask for one side.Only when both parties have a basis for cooperation can this kind of cooperation last for a long time.

Compared with the current Cooper, Benitez really has no advantage.Cooper's results over the years have been outstanding, especially in Mallorca.If it is a normal club, including Deportivo, Real Madrid, Barcelona and other clubs to choose, no one will choose Benitez, they will choose Cooper.

Too bad Valencia is not a normal club.Their board of directors is now fiercely infighting, which is why Rist has the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.Rist must push Benitez to become the head coach of Valencia this time.

After thinking for a while, Roig slowly laughed out, Rist's proposal was good.Because this matter does not do any harm to me, it is just pretending.And what contributed to this incident, it is really possible that I can become the chairman of Valencia again.So nodded.

…………

"What, Roeg recommended Cooper to be the club's head coach next season?"

Soler is smaller than Roig, and a lot smaller.Roig is the same generation as Soler's father, Dista Soler.When the Spanish club was demutualized, it was Roig and Testa Soler who worked together to carve up Valencia.Since then, Roig has always been interested in the club, but as a construction tycoon, Testa Soler has no interest in Valencia.So let your son represent the club.

Although Soler has the upper hand in the club's confrontation recently, he himself is a rich second generation who grew up shouting the golden key.What he can't bear the most is being angry, and he can't bear to be under others for a long time.

Therefore, he is quite dissatisfied with Roig. This old man has always firmly held the control of the club and ignored himself, the second largest shareholder.It wasn't until the Mijatovic incident happened that Roig's resignation was fueled by him behind the scenes.Although Mijatovic's job-hopping at the time was amazing, it would not allow Roig, the company's largest shareholder, to step down.This is all because of Soler's fueling.

But even though he has stepped down, he is the club's largest shareholder after all and has a huge influence.Among the current board of directors, there are also many people who support him.So he has been guarding Roig.Unexpectedly, Roeg, who has been honest for a long time, actually recommended Cooper, who is currently in Mallorca, to be the head coach of the club next season.What the hell is this old thing trying to do?

"Jaime, haven't you been in touch with Cooper? How did he suddenly have a relationship with Roig?"

When Sorel got angry, he got angry with Ottie who was sitting next to him.Otti said that he was his father's courtier, and he entered Valencia later, and now he is assisting Soler.In terms of ability, Otti is definitely No.1 in Valencia.This person is not only familiar with the operation of the club, but even as a half-way monk, he is also very accurate in judging the strength of the players.

If it weren't for the battle between Roig and Soler, he would have been able to make contributions to the club with his ability.Facing Sorel's unceremonious questioning, Otti was very angry.But for the sake of Soler's father, he still held his temper and said to Soler: "Juan, I don't know when Mr. Roig came into contact with Coach Cooper."

"You don't know, so who knows."

Soler is not at all hypocritical when facing Otti, an old courtier who is older than himself and is also his father.Then he walked around, and finally said: "No, absolutely not. You must not let Cooper become the head coach of Valencia. You go and tell Cortez that Valencia must not invite Cooper."

Cortes is the current chairman of Valencia, but he has the least rights.When Roeg stepped down, it was of course Soler in terms of strength.But how could Roig not be clear about Soler's actions secretly.At that time, he had just stepped down from the position of chairman and had a great influence within Valencia.With his objection, Soler certainly couldn't force it up.So at that time, the Valencia board of directors chose a more neutral, that is, Cortez with a better temper as chairman.

After he became the chairman, he was really splinted.Both Roig and Soler are major shareholders of the club, both of which own more than 30.00% of the club.The two of them are fighting each other every day, and he really can't do this or that in the middle.

"However, many people think that Cooper is very suitable for Valencia. After all, it was I who first proposed it. Then why should Cooper be rejected?"

Soler sneered: "Let's just say that Cooper's game was too ugly." (To be continued...)
