Chapter 1008 Dubai Global Football Awards
In the end, the 7th Club World Cup final was contested at the Zayed Sports City Stadium in Abu Dhabi, where Inter Milan defeated African champion Mazembe 3-0 to win the fifth championship of the year and the fourth world championship in the club's history.
Samuel Eto'o set up Pandev's opener and then netted a goal of his own, adding another point to substitute Biabiani before the end. European teams have won the championship for the fourth time in a row, surpassing the South American teams that have won the championship for three consecutive times.
Dong Fangzhuo originally wanted to go to the locker room to congratulate him, but when he thought that Benitez's pig was also there, he dispelled this idea.
Still, he sent congratulatory messages to many of his former teammates.
He was not included in the Copa del Rey squad this week and his Real Madrid team-mates did not disappoint him by winning the first leg.
Of course, Dong Fangzhuo's reason for coming to the UAE is not just to watch the Club World Cup, but to attend a subsequent awards ceremony.
The Globe Soccer Aards are part of the Dubai International Sports Congress, organised and conducted by the Dubai Sports Authority.
Launched in Dubai this year, the awards are organised by the European Football Agents Association and the European Football Club Association to recognise outstanding agents and club managers in football, with the addition of awards for best player, best coach and best team.
Dong Fangzhuo is naturally here to compete for the best player award, and the players shortlisted for the best player are the same as the Golden Ball, Dong Fangzhuo, Sneijder, and Iniesta.
At this time, Dong Fangzhuo and Snead came to the outside of the awards party together, which immediately caused a frenzy.
"Dong,"
"Dong,"
"Dong."
His popularity is much higher than that of Sneijder.
"Dong,"
"By your side, I'm more like a passerby."
"I don't feel like a star at all."
Sneijder joked.
"Then you are not standing next to Cristiano Ronaldo, when I am standing next to him, I sometimes wonder if I am a star. That guy has too many female fans, and there's really no way to be handsome. ”
Dong Fangzhuo walked towards the fans as he spoke, many of them were holding paper and pens in their hands, and the message was obvious, they wanted to sign it. He went to satisfy more than a dozen fans, but there were too many fans to be satisfied, and finally he walked into the awards venue with Sneijder after taking a group photo with a small fan.
"I never understand the meaning of this award, there are very few people in the world who know about this award, right?"
"Wesley, you can't think so, this award may not be famous at first, but as more and more stars come here, the award will get better and better every year, maybe one day, he may be as prestigious as the Golden Globes?"
"But the most important thing is that people in the UAE have money, and if they have money, they can engage in awesome activities, you see so many stars on the scene."
"Hey, what am I talking about, you see, who is that? Bailey! Dong Fangzhuo saw the black ball towards Pele at a glance.
The football king Pele wore a black evening dress today and talked and laughed in the crowd, the key is that the guys surrounding Pele are not ordinary people, they are all international football celebrities.
Figo, Bergkamp, David Beckham, Mateus, Maldini, Raul......
There are a lot of European awesomes.
"Dong,"
Dong Fangzhuo was about to step forward to say hello, but he didn't expect Bailey to speak first.
The old guy was very enthusiastic, and immediately came up and hugged Dong Fangzhuo, as if he was very familiar with Dong Fangzhuo.
Actually, these two people have never met at all......
"Dong, I'm your die-hard fan."
Bailey would have been joking, and immediately it was like Dong Fangzhuo had shown his identity and attitude.
Sneijder behind Dong Fangzhuo felt a little unnatural, because everyone was looking at Dong Fangzhuo and seemed to ignore him.
Fortunately, and Bergkamp didn't forget him, they were all Dutch.
After greeting Dong Fangzhuo, Bergkamp took the initiative to come over and hug Sneijder.
There is no way, who called Dong Fangzhuo's fame is too great, and it is not a level at all.
Bailey pulled Dong Fangzhuo away, talking like a.
"Dong, your Chinese football level is improving rapidly, I think you have the hope of winning the World Cup in Brazil, and this year you almost succeeded."
In an instant, Dong Fangzhuo felt sweating all over, and Bailey's crow's mouth was accidentally opened?
"The king of the ball, it is impossible for the Chinese team to win the championship, Brazil, why don't you think Brazil will win the championship? Argentina and Germany are fine, China is not good, China is not good. ”
"Huh? Aha, are you worried about my crow's mouth? Bailey instantly understood, and laughed.
Dong Fangzhuo also smiled embarrassedly.
"Chinese football has a long way to go, we just want to be able to play well every time, I really didn't think about what you said, otherwise even God will laugh."
“……”
Soon, the agent Mendes also arrived and came to Dong Fangzhuo's side, so Bailey didn't pester Dong Fangzhuo anymore.
The award ceremony is also ready to begin.
The first award was Club Manager of the Year, which was won by Spain's Miguel Angel Gil.
It's a chicken rib award, and there is no applause.
The Globe Football Career Award was then presented, and Adriano Galliani took the stage to receive the award.
Who in the world doesn't know the general manager of AC Milan? Even Mendes stepped forward to hug and congratulate Galliani, although Mendes rarely interacts with Galliani, Galliani usually cooperates with another football agent predator, Raiola, but who knows if there will be an intersection in the future.
The next big prize is eye-catching.
Broker of the Year!
Mendez, Raiola and others are among the best candidates of the year, and these two are the most likely to win the award.
At this time, the two of them sat next to each other, Raiola was slightly bloated, not tall, and looked much older than Mendes.
In the right row are famous agents in international football, namely Pere Guardiola, Paul Sterret, Walker Struter, Kathy Wasserman, Horab Chinru and Jonathan Barnett.
Perhaps most of these people are unknown to fans, but they are very famous in the football brokerage industry.
Pep Guardiola is the brother of Pep Guardiola, and Barcelona striker Luis Suarez is now his top client. David Villa, who also plays for Barcelona, and Andres Iniesta, who also play for Barcelona, are also his players. This guy is definitely the number one agent in Spain.
Paul Stretford's most famous player as a well-known agent in football is Wayne Rooney. When he debuted as an agent, he had only one player under his umbrella and his office was in an apartment. Alex Ferguson once described him as "the toughest man to deal with" in football. Many players in the Premier League such as goalkeeper Krul, Schmeichel Jr., Jaskolenen and Sorensen are among his players. He was also an agent for Andy Cole and Stanley Mold.
As a German agent, Walker Strut is almost unmatched, he has a large number of German stars under his belt, and German football has become a powerful force in football in recent years. Royce, Cross, Hevedes and others are all Strut customers. The fate of many stars is in his hands, and Strut is also very strong, and a few days ago there was a public conflict between German supernova Gotze and Pep Guardiola.
Kathy Wasserman is the president of Wasserman Media Group (MG), now the world's largest sports agency with a large number of big names in the Premier League. Clients such as Gerrard, Carragher, Michael Irving and Keane have been among them, and in addition to football, they also broker athletes in a variety of fields, including basketball, golf and cycling. They are undoubtedly the big names in the football agent community.
When it comes to Horab Chinru, do you think you see him in many transactions, he has been involved in Tevez transfer transactions on many occasions. He is also the agent of Philippe Coutinho, David Luiz and Oscar. He brought Argentine beast Tevez to West Ham United a few years ago and Manchester City in 2009 and was a controversial figure in Tevez's multiple transfers. With his transfer tentacles across South America and Europe, he is one of the biggest agents in football.
The Stelr Group, founded by British agent Jonathan Barnett, is now one of the biggest agencies in football. He has a number of big-name stars under his belt, and now the Stelr Group has around 500 clients, and is also regarded as the most difficult negotiator by major clubs because of his often sharp words.
As Ibrahimovic's agent, Raiola is now a celebrity in the broker world. He has influenced the careers of many of football's top players and certainly the fortunes of many of the top clubs.
Mendes, who is ranked first, doesn't need to talk much, as a football god-like figure, Mendes's career advancement is still very inspirational. His most important aces are Dong Fangzhuo, Cristiano Ronaldo and Jose Mourinho, as well as Cristiano Ronaldo, Angel Di Maria, Diego Costa and Falcao.
Just for Dong Fangzhuo's transfer to Real Madrid, he took a commission of about 50 million pounds, and as for transfers like Di Maria, they can be ignored......
"Herrham Mendes!"
When presenter Bergkamp read out Mendes' name, no one was actually surprised at all.
Those so-called world football agent predators are really too far away from him, the number one agent......
The moment Mendes stepped onto the podium, the applause was extremely fierce, but in the eyes of many peers, many were envious, jealous and hateful.
"Dong,"
"Should I switch brokers?"
Snead asked suddenly.
"A great agent, or can take a player to greater heights?"
Dong Fangzhuo nodded seriously, "You can indeed consider Mr. Mendez......"
