Chapter 68 Brokers

Li Qingshan didn't know that he had attracted Lippi's attention, he went to Manchester to go through the suspension procedures, although he had decided to play football, Li Qingshan still did not drop out of school directly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Maybe it was the conversation with his mother that influenced him, and he thought about retiring and coming back to continue his college education in the future.

In fact, he also caught the attention of another person - Raiola.

At this time, Raiola was leaning against the door of the University of Manchester bored, wearing a peaked cap, a black jacket, and a pair of fat jeans. No one would have imagined that this big white fat man, who shivered in the cold wind of England at the end of January, looked like the big white fat man who could be seen everywhere on the streets of England was the famous football agent Raiola.

Raiola is notorious in Europe as a football agent.

Manchester United's legendary coach Alex Ferguson once wrote in his autobiography: "There are one or two agents I really can't like, and Raiola is one of them. ”

There are good reasons why Lord Fernandes doesn't like Raiola, and Pogba left Old Trafford that year, and a large part of that was because Raiola fanned the flames. 'The club would have loved to keep Pogba, but Raiola's presence changed everything. We were almost incompatible, and good things were messed up by him. Ferguson wrote. As we all know, at Juventus, Pogba grew into a world-class midfielder, and Ferguson's release of the Frenchman was also regarded as the most mistaken decision of his coaching career.

He's an offbeat agent, and he doesn't have any friends in the circle of agents, and he doesn't try to build any intimacy with the club's hierarchy like other agents. He always seems to find good players and has the trust of his players. Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba, Balotelli, Van Bommel and Maxwell have become his employers.

The agent's hobby seems to be to demand salaries from players and encourage them to keep transferring.

Ibrahimovic is his biggest player, and he has earned the world's highest salary within three years. After Juventus' relegation broke out in Serie A, Ibrahimovic went quite decisively, and Raiola made a big contribution. What is even more unforgivable for Juventus fans is that Ibrahimovic's next home is the sworn enemy Inter. During his three years at Inter, Ibrahimovic was at his peak. But Inter finally nodded and let Ibrahimovic switch to Barcelona, a big factor being that they couldn't stand Raiola's greed for money and endlessness.

In March 2010, Balotelli and Raiola "married", and the Inter Milan management had a headache at that time, because it was Raiola who first won a huge annual salary of 12 million euros for Ibrahimovic, and then helped the Swedish Shenta successfully jump to Barcelona. At the same time, he also planned that Ibrahimovic, Maxwell and Balotelli would leave Inter and join him.

Raiola's squad of players spans Italy, the Netherlands, Naxi, France, the Czech Republic..... and there is hardly any agent with as many nationalities as Raiola.

Now it seems that the super agent has another Chinese player under his banner.

Although Chinese football is very backward, the purchasing power of Chinese is getting stronger year by year. Last year, Guangzhou Evergrande spent 8.5 million euros to buy the former Bundesliga golden boot Barrios, which made the European football world begin to notice the purchasing power of Chinese Super League teams.

In fact, in 2011, Guangzhou Evergrande spent 10 million US dollars to buy the Brazilian Primera MVP Argentine midfielder Dario. Conca.

Raiola has a hunch that the Chinese Super League will soon enter the Jinyuan football period, and if he has a Chinese player under his command at this time, he will have a relationship with the Chinese club, which will make him a fortune from this Jinyuan torrent.

But in the past two years, he has not looked for potential Chinese players, until he saw Li Qingshan when he was reading a British newspaper.

Raiola is fluent in eight Chinese and as an agent, it is also a professional habit to read the newspapers of some of the major European football countries. After he saw about Li Qingshan's performance against Liverpool and Manchester United, his hyena-like sense of smell made him instinctively sense that his opportunity had come.

So he flew straight to Manchester, ready to talk to this Chinese guy in person.

He first went to FC United's training base, but the big agent was there to pounce, where he didn't see any players or club officials except for a janitor – this is a pure amateur football club.

But there, he finally got specific information about Li Qingshan.

As a super-agent who is a well-known name in Europe, endure more than an hour of cold wind waiting for a nobody at the gates of the University of Manchester. I don't think many people will believe it.

But that's what makes Raiola different, and although the club's coaches, presidents, managers don't like him, he is admired by many players, and Pirlo says Raiola is a legend in the world of agents, a world-class transfer trader. Ibrahimovic even described Raiola as follows: "He was my agent, my friend, my life coach. ”

After waiting for more than an hour, Raiola finally saw Li Qingshan's figure.

He rubbed his hands together and greeted them.

Li Qingshan walked out of the school gate after successfully completing the suspension procedures. From today onwards, he is not a student, but a professional footballer!

He raised his head at the school gate and took a deep breath, feeling comfortable and ready to officially say goodbye to his school career, when suddenly a peaked cap appeared under his nose.

Raiola looked up and smiled at the tall Chinese player in front of him.

Li Qingshan looked at the big fat man smiling at him in front of him and didn't have much of a surprised expression. In fact, during this time, there have been many people in similar costumes waiting for them at the school gate. They are all scouts for various teams.

"Sir, you're a step late, I've already signed with a team." Li Qingshan, who was in a good mood, rarely did not bypass it directly as usual.

"Oh? Congratulations, Lee. Raiola said with a smile.

"You're not a scout for a certain team?" Li Qingshan looked at the smiling fat man in front of him and asked a little strangely.

Raiola took off his hat, straightened the collar of his jacket, and said, "Of course not, let me introduce myself, my name is Raiola and I am an agent." ”

After saying his name, Raiola smiled confidently.

But Li Qingshan immediately asked a question that almost made him turn his head and leave: "Raiola? Don't know, do you have a broker certificate? ”

Li Qingshan doesn't pay much attention to the transfer news, so he hasn't heard of Raiola's name as a super economic man.

But he does feel that he needs an agent these days, first of all, he is not familiar with the various terms of signing with the team, and he signed it in a daze, and then he has no roots in Europe, and if there is an agent to help, he may be able to find another team to loan him. To be honest, he didn't really want to go to Ruichao or Biyi.

He had heard that there were many fake agents who made money by tricking players, so he asked if they had any licenses. After all, a licensed broker is reliable, at least the probability of being a scammer is much smaller.

Raiola twitched, but finally held back. "Of course I have the certificate, I don't believe you Google it."

"Search for what?" Li Qingshan really took out his mobile phone.

"My name, Mino. Raiola, M-i-n-o. R-a-i –o-r-a" Raiola reluctantly accepted the fact that the other party had never heard of him.

Li Qingshan typed the name into his mobile browser. Soon he was shocked.

A super agent on par with Mendes?!

He's actually Ibrahimovic's agent?!

And Balotelli?!

Such a super agent would actually find himself in person? Li Qingshan suddenly felt that this world was too unreal. The person in front of you is really not a liar?

Li Qingshan secretly looked at the fat man in front of him and compared it with the photos he searched.

Well...... It's really similar to the person in the photo......

"Are you sure it's Raiola, Ibrahim's agent?" Li Qingshan asked cautiously.

"If it's fake," Raiola put on his hat.

"Maybe your agent."
