The first tumor in football

Chapter 169 Meeting with Mendes

After the match between Ipswich and Liverpool, Song Wen has completely become the hottest star in today's football world.

That’s right, a superstar, not a rising star.

Before this, Song Wen could only be called the hottest new star in today's football.

Because above him, there are a series of stars such as Messi, Ronaldo and even Neymar.

After all, in terms of honors and achievements, Song Wen has no way to compete with these people.

But with the end of the game with Liverpool, Song Wen's value and status suddenly increased.

This is because Song Wen's performance in this game led countless media to say that Song Wen might be the first player in football history who could completely change the outcome of a game on his own.

The key point of this sentence lies in the word "thoroughly".

The hallmark of football superstars is that their presence can greatly influence the outcome of a game.

But people's evaluation of Song Wen has completely changed!

In the game where they were six goals behind, they scored six goals in nine minutes on their own and reversed the situation to win. Just based on the performance of this one game, there is no comparison even if you put Messi and Ronaldo on the stage.

Even Lewandowski, who once created the famous scene of being the supreme leader, was vulnerable in the face of Song Wen's record.

The gap between the two is not even a concept.

You know, when Lewandowski set this record, it was in the match between Bayern and Wolfsburg.

Bayern is the dominant team in the Bundesliga, while Wolfsburg can only be considered an upper-middle-level team at best.

This is a game where the strong kicks the weak.

On the other hand, Song Wen's Ipswich team is worth less than one-third of Liverpool's!

This seems like a game of fighting with a thorn in the side of a rock!

Lewandowski is surrounded by world-class players.

Surrounding Song Wen are just a group of ordinary players worth money from the English Championship.

Although Lewandowski's opponents are equally strong, they cannot be compared with Liverpool's players.

The gap in strength between the two in creating this record is incomparable.

And when Lewandowski scored five goals in nine minutes, he was a substitute.

He was full of energy and physical strength, and was facing an opponent who was tired after running for most of the game.

And what about Song Wen?

He actually played the entire game!
Judging from the intensity of the scene, Bayern had the advantage, while Ipswich was six goals behind. The psychological pressure faced by the two players during the game was completely different levels.

What's more, Song Wen scored one more goal than Lewandowski in nine minutes.

Lewandowski has long been the emperor. Although there are a lot of gimmicks and he became a god in one battle, in fact, the gold content is not particularly high.

But the value of Song Wen's game went through the roof!

This is a god-level record that has never been seen before in the entire football world and will never be surpassed in the future!

After the game with Liverpool, Song Wen's value soared again, directly to 211 million euros!

Remember, this was in 2017! Not the era when Mr. Billionaires were everywhere.

This also makes Song Wen's net worth directly become the third in the world football!
The first place before Song Wen was Neymar from Brazil.

His value has reached 2.5 million euros.

The reason why Neymar has such a high value is that in this winter window, Neymar transferred to Paris Saint-Germain for 2.22 million euros.

Ranked second in the world's most valuable player is the coal-ball king Leo Messi from Argentina.

His net worth is 211.1 million euros.

One hundred thousand euros more than Song Wen’s worth.

Ipswich Town.

Chun Yang Hotel.

Ever since Song Wen made Li Chunrong's spa shop popular, this strong woman has also started to expand other businesses.

Chunyang Hotel is a high-end business banquet hotel created by Li Chunrong.

At this moment, in the VIP888 box, Song Wen looked at the message on his mobile phone with dissatisfaction on his face.

"What do you mean, why should Yoshi be 100,000 euros more than me?"

The old man sitting opposite Song Wen was a little confused.

"Yoshi? Who is it?"

Song Wen waved his hand and said:

"It's okay, Mr. Mendes, let's continue."

Sitting in front of Song Wen was Jorge Mendes, who was called the best agent in world football by the media.

This agent has many well-known superstar players under his management.

For example, Cristiano Ronaldo, De Gea, Rodriguez, Falcao, Di Maria, Diego Costa, Nani, James Rodriguez, Mangala, Coentrao, Pepe, Marcelo, etc., including Mourinho, no matter where the Magic Bird goes, Mendes can do business with the team where the Magic Bird is.

This agent from Portugal became famous in 2004. With the help of Porto's victory in the Champions League, he sent Mourinho and several players to Chelsea, which greatly improved Chelsea's strength and allowed Porto to get the largest sum of money in the club's history.

In 2009, Ronaldo was sent to Real Madrid for the highest price in history, which caused a sensation in the entire world football.

When he was a player, Mendes contracted the advertising rights for the stadium's outer wall and opened a football video rental and sales store. His business acumen far outweighed his football skills. His style was to do his best to satisfy all parties. He managed to get a transfer fee of 9600 million euros for Ronaldo when he left Manchester United, and Manchester United fans still remembered Ronaldo's kindness after he left. Although the player's own income was reduced, his reputation and relationship with the club were relatively good.

In general, Mendes is always able to handle relationships with all parties well. It can be said that although he is an agent, he is considered a good guy among agents, which has a lot to do with his being selected as the best agent.

Since the game with Liverpool, there have been countless invitations from various clubs.

Now everyone knows that Song Wen's contract with Ipswich will expire in this summer window.

Any club with some financial resources would like to sign this British star in this summer window.

Even at all costs.

You know, the most important time point for every season's games is after the summer transfer window.

Compared with winter transfers, many shocking transfer fee transactions that shock the football world often occur in the summer transfer window.

Because after the summer transfer window, the clubs will be faced with truly fierce competition.

Not only do they have to fight for the final league ranking, but for those top clubs, they also need to prepare for the UEFA Champions League!
The UEFA Champions League is an annual football competition hosted by the Union of European Football Associations. It represents the highest level and honor of European club football. It is recognized as the most influential and highest-level club competition in the world, and is also one of the football and sports events with the highest prize money in the world.

A Champions League title is worth any other championship trophy. For many top clubs, the Champions League title is their first goal!

Judging from Song Wen's current performance, he has become one of the most important pieces of the puzzle for many top teams to win the Champions League title.

Therefore, countless clubs have extended olive branches to Song Wen.

This made Song Wen feel a little annoyed.

After all, as a professional player, he can't spend all his time on these things.

Moreover, matters like transfers are very complicated and one can easily get cheated if one is not careful.

In addition to the club's frantic contact with Song Wen, many agents also began to contact Song Wen.

Mendes is one of them.

As the world's best agent, Song Wen naturally gave Mendes some face.

This was the first agent he met.

But in fact, Song Wen did not have much confidence in the cooperation between himself and Mendes.

The main reason for this is that, looking at how Mendes handled the transfers of other players before, it is not difficult to find that he often sacrifices the interests of players during transfers in order to maintain the relationship between players and the club and the club's fans.

There is actually nothing wrong with this operation.

After all, Mendes's operations are actually more conducive to the players' commercial interests.

But for Song Wen, such operation is meaningless.

What is Mendes' greatest ability?
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the operation of capital and market speculation.

It is foreseeable that if Song Wen reaches a cooperation with Mendes, he will soon become the second Cristiano Ronaldo.

But at the same time, Song Wen will also be controlled by others in many places.

Because according to Mendes's philosophy, he could not accept many of Song Wen's practices.

Ronaldo is Mendes's masterpiece, and the two had a close relationship like father and son at the beginning, but in the end they became strangers.

In Ronaldo's autobiographical film, Mendes was called "like another father to himself."

The two have achieved success together for 20 years.

When the 17-year-old Ronaldo played in the first team of Sporting CP, he was "bound" to Mendes, and when Ronaldo continued to win honors in the world football, Mendes has always been his most steadfast comrade-in-arms.

But even so, the two eventually parted ways.

The disagreement between the two mainly stems from the increasingly intense conflict between Ronaldo and Manchester United. Mendes hopes that Ronaldo will accept reality and obey the head coach's positioning of him, but in his last days at Manchester United, Ronaldo's behavior became uncontrollable.

Mendes believes that since you, Ronaldo, are no longer the omnipotent Ronaldo you once were, you should accept the reality and listen to Ten Hag's words.

But Ronaldo, who has been arrogant for most of his life, naturally does not want to make servile changes in order to please others.

In fact, when it comes down to it, the reason why such a big conflict broke out between the two is simply because of their different ideas.

Mendes still values ​​Ronaldo's commercial value, and of course he hopes that Ronaldo can do better.

In Mendes' view, the players who are aggrieved at the moment are just looking further ahead in order to create greater commercial value and benefits for a better future.

But as a player, Ronaldo is obviously more accustomed to looking at problems from a football perspective.

He felt that he was having a hard time playing under the guidance of Manchester United's Ten Hag. This was not the way of playing he loved and he couldn't stand it at all.

Putting himself in Mendes' shoes, Song Wen thought that if it were him, Mendes would probably be driven crazy by him.

Just the actions he often does to attract bad attention would probably keep Mendes from sleeping well all night long.

But Mendes seemed full of confidence about what would happen today.

In Mendes' view, as the "best" player in today's football, Song Wen naturally needs the assistance of himself as the "best" agent.

And Mendes also very much hopes to reach a cooperation with Song Wen. After all, Ronaldo's value has dropped to 1.5 million. As Ronaldo gets older, he also very much needs a player under his command to stand up and re-establish his reputation as the best agent.

So even though Song Wen was a little absent-minded, Mendes was very serious.

He quickly realized what Song Wen was saying.

After all, there are only two stars who are worth more than Song Wen.

So Mendes smiled and said:

"Song, you seem to be a little dissatisfied with Messi?"

Song Wen was shocked.

"I didn't, Mr. Mendes, please stop talking nonsense."

Mendes smiled and said, "It's okay, Song. There are only two of us here. We can talk behind closed doors. Actually..."

Song Wen sighed.

"That's not just dissatisfaction, that's extreme dissatisfaction. If he comes to the Premier League, I will kick him directly and kick him back to Argentina."

Song Wen's shocking words left Mendes stunned.

He couldn't understand when Song Wen and Messi became enemies. After all, the two had never met each other, and he had never heard of Song Wen having any disputes with Messi on the Internet.

The key point is that this young man is so crazy that he dares to say anything.

You know, this is the first time they met.

In fact, Song Wen was not worried at all.

First, Mendes is Ronaldo's agent, and the battle between Ronaldo and Messi has been going on for many years.

You have to know that the battlefield between the two is not just on the court, but also in various business cooperation outside the court, which is a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder but extremely fierce.

And the content of this part is complicated by Mendes.

In addition, Ronaldo seems to have been suppressed by Messi in recent years, so there is no reason for Mendes to have any good relationship with Messi.

Second, even if he did not reach a cooperation agreement with Mendes in the end, the agent was angry and exposed his remarks.

So what?
Given Song Wen’s current status, it seems that no one can do anything to slander him except fans of Messi and Ronaldo.

He's just a little kid, so just scold him.

If you have the guts, come to the Premier League and fight him.

Song Wen just stood there and dunked on his head.

Let Yosi's brain grow bright red like the sun.
