Chapter 817 Be a Good Person

"Hehe, Abramovich is really cruel!"

Yang Huan slammed the balcony railing with both hands, sneered and cursed viciously.

Mendes thought that Master Huan was really furious, and he stood aside without daring to say a word.

It is no wonder that over the past period of time, both Inter Milan and Hamburg have shown their determination to retain the players.

These players are indeed crucial for Inter Milan and Hamburg.

Therefore, including Mendes, Abramovich and others, almost all believed that they would never let him go.

It is completely normal for Young Master Huan to have this reaction now.

Mendes was thinking, forget it.

Now that Young Master Huan is like this, it would be really foolish of me if I didn't know what to do.

But just when he was about to speak, Yang Huan sighed heavily.

"Never mind, that's you, Jorge!"

Mendes was stunned. What does that mean?

"Although I am a possessive person and don't like to be controlled by others, so I am very disgusted with third-party ownership of players."

After hearing this, Mendes finally understood why Master Huan wanted to draw a clear line between himself and him as soon as he arrived at Atletico Madrid.

After all, he is not disgusted with himself as a person, but with the third-party ownership agency.

This made him feel much better.

"But, Jorge, I really want to make friends with you, because we Chinese have an old saying, one more friend means one more way. The professional football world is big and small, but we will meet each other sooner or later. Harmony brings wealth!"

Mendes kept nodding his head. This was consistent with the impression he had heard from others about Young Master Huan.

Although this young master's style of doing things is very decisive, even somewhat contrary to the tradition of professional football, surprisingly, he has a very good relationship with the top leaders of traditional teams such as Florentino and Rosell.

Looking at the entire European football world, the only people Mendes knows of who have a grudge against Master Huan are Abramovich of Chelsea and Ashley of Newcastle.

But the latter is a freak, and the whole world knows it.

As for Abramovich, he is also notoriously difficult to get along with.

"Well!" Yang Huan was determined to make a decisive move. "Since the players have been convinced and are thinking about transferring, let them go!"

Mendes was shocked. "Master Huan, what you mean is..."

"Yes, I agreed to their transfer, just to make friends with you, but we have to make it clear that the offer submitted by Chelsea is too low. If you want to poach my players, you have to at least pay a price!"

Mendes just received a call from Abramovich. The money issue is easy to solve as long as Young Master Huan agrees.

However, the Portuguese were quite puzzled.

Could it be that I am really that important in Young Master Huan's eyes?

Could he be so cruel as to let go of three core players from two teams?

This is probably a question that is difficult to explain clearly.

Master Huan is determined to build a football empire, so naturally he needs a group of agents to run around and do things for him.

Especially recently, Mendes also received news that a football investment company from Monaco has almost cleared out Benfica's shares on the stock market and is currently actively negotiating the acquisition with major shareholders.

I'm afraid the only one who understands how this works is Young Master Huan.

The same trick was used by Master Huan when he acquired Anderlecht in Belgium.

Over the past year, he has also been slowly using this tactic to absorb Ajax's shares.

Now, it’s Benfica’s turn, and they are definitely more experienced.

Just now, Young Master Huan mentioned that Ajax and Benfica are among the teams that are planning to set up youth training camps in China.

From this we can see that even if Master Huan was unable to fully control the two clubs, he at least held a considerable portion of the shares.

As for the rest, it was only a matter of time before it was swallowed by Young Master Huan.

The bigger the venue, the more resources you need to mobilize.

I have heard for a long time that German super agents Volker Struth and Thomas Chulotte, as well as Spanish super agent Jose Otting, are actively cooperating with Master Huan's company.

Volker Struth is the most powerful agent in Germany, and his players include Toni Kroos, Gotze, Reus and other famous stars in the world football.

When Toni Kroos transferred to Southampton, Gotze jumped from Dortmund to Bayern Munich, and Reus moved from Dortmund to Tottenham Hotspur, they were all the work of Volker Struth and were very influential.

Thomas Krott is no less impressive than Volker Struth.

He does not have many big-name stars under his command, the only one who can be counted is Neuer, but his influence in German football is no less than that of Volker Struth. Every year, at least a dozen or twenty players enter the Bundesliga through his help.

In recent years, Thomas Krot has been actively developing the Asian market, especially Japan.

Shinji Kagawa was able to shine in European football and joined Dortmund and Manchester United successively. It was Thomas Krott who was behind the scenes.

In recent years, Japanese players have landed in the Bundesliga and European leagues one after another. Although they have their own agents, they basically go through Thomas Krott.

In other words, Thomas Krott is the driving force behind the trend of Japanese students studying abroad in recent years!

As for Jose Oting, there is no need to say more. Spain has seen a surge in talent in recent years and he has made a lot of money.

In addition to the above-mentioned people, there are also super agents such as Pini Zahavi and Raiola.

It can be said that Master Huan’s influence in European football is now at its peak.

The only person who has nothing to do with Master Huan is probably Gareth Bale’s agent, Jonathan Barnett.

The Premier League's biggest agent has had a tough time in the last one or two years.

Because he couldn't reach Southampton.

It is reported that Master Huan was very dissatisfied with the fact that he had instigated Gareth Bale to transfer, so he ordered all his teams and players to prohibit cooperation with Jonathan Barnett.

Don't think that Master Huan is just talking.

A year ago, there was a young player with good ability in Southampton's youth training camp. He couldn't stand Jonathan Barnett's temptation and signed an agent contract with him. As a result, he was sold the next day and then became a nobody.

Therefore, the most powerful agent in the UK can only watch the two big pieces of fat, Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur, fall into other people's pockets.

Luke Shaw, Chambers, Prowse, Sturridge, Ravel Morrison, Harry Kane, Gary Cahill...

Jonathan Barnett has nothing to do with any of this!

This London brokerage tycoon must be regretting his stupidity back then.

As an agent, Mendes knows very well that one must be sensible in life.

Master Huan’s meaning is very simple, that is, if everyone wants to cooperate, they have to set rules.

He would never allow any sneaky or shady behavior to happen.

And all the agents who have worked with Master Huan are now making a lot of money.

Just like Raiola, Ibrahimovic alone, during the four years he played for Southampton, signed so many sponsorship contracts that he was exhausted, and could earn at least several million from the WeChat store every year. Now he has jumped to Paris Saint-Germain, originally intending to retire there, but his annual salary is still tens of millions.

Moreover, given the previous pleasant cooperation, Southampton is now vigorously cultivating Pogba and Ravel Morrison.

With this treatment, Raiola is almost going crazy!

Mendes also knew Master Huan, so he was very clear about these situations.

He could tell that Master Huan really agreed to the transfer.

So, it was time for him to make promises and assurances.

"Master Huan, don't worry. Inter Milan and Hamburg have offered a price for the transfer fee. As long as it's within our acceptable range, we don't need to discuss it further!"

At this point, Mendes paused and thought about it.

"In addition, I am also very happy to have a friend like Master Huan. I heard that the Southampton youth team was recently promoted to the English League Two and is actively recruiting young players. I wonder if they are interested in players from the Portuguese Super League?"

Recruiting players?

Hehe, when Master Huan heard this, he immediately became interested.

"What do you have to recommend?"

Speaking of Mendes, he is a man with great connections in Portuguese football.

"To be honest, the most promising players in Portugal, Bernardo Silva and Rafa Silva, have already been signed by Young Master Huan."

Even Mendes had to admire Southampton's scouting system, which was so damn awesome.

Bernardo Silva would have been fine, but even Braga's Rafa Silva was implicated.

They are even more professional than these professional human traffickers!

Currently, both players play for Benfica.

"If Master Huan is interested, Manchester City's Marcos Lopez is planning to make a move. Master Huan should have heard of this player, right?"

Yang Huan nodded. This was a Portuguese player who had been very popular in the past two years.

If I remember correctly, I'm probably about eighteen years old now.

"Two years ago, Manchester City spent 1 million euros to get him and cultivated him for two years, but you also know that Manchester City is not suitable for the growth of young players at all. They like to pile up stars, so they plan to sell him."

At this point, Mendes chuckled, "If Master Huan trusts me, I'll come forward and give you about this amount."

Mendes made a three gesture, meaning three million.

"Okay, deal, let him come back to Southampton!"

Mendes was filled with admiration.

Three million, and you agreed to it without even thinking about it or considering it?

Mendes has been active in European football for so many years, but he has never seen anyone so wealthy.

"There is also a young player in the Porto youth team, who plays as a midfielder. His name is Ruben Neves and he is very popular with the outside world. If Master Huan is interested, I will get him 4 million euros."

"Ruben Neves?" Yang Huan repeated the name.

"Four million, deal!"

Mendes was really shocked.

This... no need to ask again?

He could see that Young Master Huan didn't know this player at all, so he agreed to it?

That’s four million, Master Huan!

"I trust you. If he wasn't a really good player, you wouldn't introduce him to me, right?" Yang Huan replied with a smile.

Mendes really didn't know what to say.

Ruben Neves is indeed an excellent potential star and Porto's most valued youth training treasure.

Mendes gave him out as a gift, which was somewhat like doing a favor for Master Huan.

But now, seeing Young Master Huan open his heart to him, he really...

"By the way, Jorge, is Chelsea still chasing Stones?" Yang Huan asked.

Mendez nodded, "Well, what's the matter?"

Could it be that Master Huan is also interested in Stones?

But Yang Huan just laughed and shook his head, "Nothing, nothing, this is the best."

What's the meaning?

Mendes was completely confused.

But Master Huan had no intention of telling, so he didn't dare to ask.

The two chatted for a while outside on the balcony, and Yang Huan also took the initiative to mention some things about Benfica.

Mendes then returned to the conference room.

Yang Huan left the WeChat headquarters.

He was going to meet someone he had long admired but had never had the chance to meet!

A very cool person!
