Super Storm

Barcelona, ​​Princess Sofia

This hotel is next to Barcelona's home stadium, Camp Nou. It has always been inextricably linked with Barcelona. Many times, Barcelona's top secret meeting with player agents is carried out in this hotel.

The more well-known one was when Barcelona and Ma competed to win Riquelme in the same year. It was in this hotel that Argentine midfielder Bolognikov was managed, which brought Riquelme to Camp Nou.

Therefore, some people say that if you see Barcelona's senior executives appearing at the Sofia Princess Hotel at the same time, it proves that Barcelona is secretly brewing buyers, and it must involve a heavy transfer.

However, how can the top Barcelona's itinerary be easily detected by the outside world?

Chairman Russell and Vice Chairman Bartomeu reached the Sofia Princess Hotel one after the other, but without disturbing anyone, under the arrangement of the hotel, they secretly came to a conference room on the upper floor.

Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Mendes had already sat inside and ordered a hot cup of black coffee, waiting patiently for their arrival.

During his stay in Barcelona, ​​he has always lived in this hotel. He has seen several Barcelona seniors before and after, and met with the chairman and vice-chairman. This is the second time today.

He has a hunch that he will get a result tonight.

...

"Jorge, we don't need to say anything else."

Russell and Bartomeu sat down opposite Mendes and looked directly at the agent in front of him.

Although Laiola relied on the momentum of Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic, he has the stance of the world ’s chief agent, but Mendels is probably not inferior in terms of influence, especially in the Iberian Peninsula This piece.

"We just got the news that Real Madrid is already in contact with Liverpool. Valdano will set off for the United Kingdom in the near future to contact Liverpool and Manchester. Obviously, they want Aguero or Suarez."

Bartomeu spoke, but his eyes kept staring at Mendes, wanting to see how his expression changed.

Russell said nothing when he sat down, just sitting on a chair and flicking his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking.

"I know, but I guess you must have made a mistake. Manchester City did not even consider selling Aguero. On the contrary, they wanted Pepe. As for Suarez, I have no doubt about the strength of this player, but he There is no way to compare with Cristiano Ronaldo, he is even worse. "Mendes said unhurriedly.

As a hands-on agent in European football, Mendes naturally understands Barça's bargaining chips and his confidence.

It is no secret that Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to leave Manchester United. Ferguson was still there. He did not have a good place to contact. Naturally, he had no idea. But now Ferguson is retired, and no one can The Portuguese are restricted.

Even, Manchester United has nothing to hang out with.

As Suarez said, he is eager to prove himself to the best and most powerful club in the world, to reach the peak of his career.

He knew very well that only here would he have the opportunity to win the dream Golden Globe.

Four years ago, he missed Real Madrid. It felt like he had missed an era. Now, he has no choice. He must not miss the opportunity. Otherwise, the Champions League in 2008 is his career. The highest peak.

"Maybe you are right, but Jorge, you should know that Real Madrid is not as good as us." Bartomeu continued, which was obviously intended to remind Mendes.

Real Madrid's attitude towards the introduction of Cristiano Ronaldo is indeed not very positive, but it does not mean that the door is completely closed. They are obviously waiting for the Portuguese to lower their own requirements, especially in the internal status of the team.

Everyone knows that in Real Madrid, Yang Yang is a unique leader. Even the two local leaders, Captain Casillas and Vice Captain Ramos, cannot shake his position. He not only attacked the city on the court, but was The top scorer in the world has unparalleled commercial value.

Cristiano Ronaldo wants to replace Yang Yang, that is impossible. All he wants is to win a position and opportunity equal to Yang Yang, and his bargaining chip is that in the position of the left winger, he is First in the world, far ahead of Hazard.

Real Madrid has concerns about this, and is obviously worried about internal solidarity, especially Yang Yang's attitude. In addition, it is said that Real Madrid's high-level internal differences are also very large. Some people support and object to it, so this transfer is not ideal.

Mendes has never put eggs in a cage, he is also in contact with Barcelona, ​​because Barcelona also want to strengthen the team's offense, Cristiano Ronaldo can play left and right, but also can play The center is very comprehensive. If you transfer to Barcelona and partner with Messi and Neymar, it will undoubtedly be the most luxurious attack lineup in the world.

Coupled with Barcelona's midfield, it is definitely the ultimate weapon of unfavorable and unfavorable.

Barcelona's management won the Champions League last season, but they lost their halves in the La Liga and the King's Cup. Now they are also determined to continue to defend the Champions League, even three consecutive championships, to reproduce Real Madrid's glorious record in previous years.

And this is not enough by Neymar, Messi and Sanchez, they also need Cristiano Ronaldo.

...

"Anyway, Josep, our demands are the same as before. We want a fair playing opportunity." Mendes said with a positive look at Bartomeu and Russell.

Cristiano Ronaldo is different from Neymar. The Brazilian genius is still young and the influence is not big enough, but the Portuguese is the world's leading superstar. He has the strength and influence to challenge Messi.

If you really want to transfer to Barcelona, ​​even if you can't overwhelm Messi, but at the same time, you must keep pace.

"It's a little difficult, Jorge." Bartomeu sighed and shook his head.

"I don't hide from you, Vilanova's body is no longer suitable for being the head coach of the team, and the head coach we are currently considering is Gerardo Martino."

"Herado Martino?" Mendes frowned.

Rao is very knowledgeable, but when he first heard the name, he was still very strange and surprised.

Is there such a figure in European football?

Bartomeu smiled awkwardly and explained: "He just led the Argentinean Newell's old boy to win the Argentine Serie A autumn league championship. He highly respects Guardiola and Vilanova's coaching style."

Mendes thought about it for a moment, and immediately realized.

Old boy from Newell, Argentina. Isn't this the home team that Messi played before coming to Barcelona?

There are many things that are obvious. There is definitely a reason why Barcelona will use such an infamous head coach. Messi ’s strong recommendation should be the key, but this kind of thing will definitely not be taken outside.

Mendes frowned, and he didn't expect Messi's influence on Barcelona to touch the coach.

"You know, Jorge, Real Madrid has been too brilliant in the past few years, they are not short of stars, Yang Yang itself is the most dazzling superstar in the world. If Cristiano Ronaldo goes to Real Madrid, even if Real Madrid management gives Opportunities for fair competition, do you think he can compete with Yang Yang? "

Mendes silently, this is a fact.

Even if Yang Yang does not have a preemptive advantage in Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo will certainly be invincible for his performance in Real Madrid these years, and if Yang Yang is expected to decline, then it is better to buy a lottery ticket.

If you can't compete, you can only succumb to Yang Yang's aura. The more dazzling Yang Yang's performance will be, the more awkward Cristiano Ronaldo's situation will be, and even a little careless, and may not even be able to maintain the third place in the world.

But if you come to Barcelona, ​​it will be different.

Messi is now recognized as the world's second-ranked top superstar, and Cristiano Ronaldo is ranked third. If the two join forces, they can definitely contend with Yang Yang. Whoever performs better will depend on each other's performance.

From this perspective, joining Barcelona is undoubtedly more advantageous.

"Well, Jorge, let me say one thing."

From entering the door to now, Russell, who had never spoken, suddenly broke his silence and looked directly at Mendes.

"We tried our best to persuade Messi to give Cristiano Ronaldo a fair competition and equal status, but we need Cristiano Ronaldo's commitment to maintain good cooperation with Messi and Neymar during Barcelona. Fight against Yang Yang and his Real Madrid together. "

Mendes heard this from President Barcelona, ​​and his heart moved. "Can you say Messi?"

"We will do our best." Russell replied.

He is now messed up because of Neymar's affairs. If it was not for the Champions League to save him, he would have to step down now, so he now needs a superstar like Cristiano Ronaldo to please the fans. At the same time continue to strive for better results to consolidate his position.

Mendes heard Russell's off-string sound, knowing that they must have spoken with Messi, and he dared to say so when there was hope.

"I will try my best to convince Cristiano."

"Then you will work harder and put some pressure on Manchester United to facilitate our negotiations." Russell said.

Mendes nodded without hesitation, "This is no problem, Ferguson is not there, there is a mess inside Manchester United, but ..."

After a pause, the Portuguese agent looked at Russell and Bartomeu. "I personally guess that the transfer fee will not be lower than Yang Yang's 100 million euros. You are mentally prepared."

Both Russell and Bartomeu are well aware.

In the current transfer situation in European football, the value of top stars has risen and it is almost impossible to win Cristiano Ronaldo at a low price.

Barcelona ’s finances are not ample, especially considering the salary pressure brought about by the introduction of superstars, but these Russell ca n’t care about it now.

Right now, his most important priority is keeping his position.
