The Young Lion

Among the three sons of the Hall family, Barnett is the most prolific in the eyes of outsiders. He has made hundreds of millions of possessions in one hand, and the birth of his second son Andrew lawyers can also make his family shine. But Andrew was established three years ago. A brokerage company has only input and no output every year. It seems to be just a facade decoration.

As for his youngest son Aldridge, he has been away all year round, and no one has the chance to meet one another. He has never heard of Aldridge's academic achievements, so few people pay attention to him.

In the study, Aldridge and Andrew discussed the future of Millwall. Andrew set up a brokerage company for 100,000 pounds three years ago. The business development in these years has been almost zero, but Andrew is very patient and he firmly believes in his The genius brother will not let him down.

Sometimes Europeans are superstitious.

Lucky colors, clothing, movements, etc. will always be trusted.

When Aldridge was ten years old, the three brothers earned more than 10,000 pounds. Since then, Aldridge has not only been the mascot of the Hall family, but also a psychological guarantee for success and victory.

It is only 94 years now, and Bosman’s lawsuit has not yet finalized the ruling, only to be concluded by the end of next year.

Before that, the players were the weak side, and the income was very small, and the restrictions were very much. Even the players who have expired the contract cannot transfer freely. It is conceivable that in this environment, the big players Need a broker?

Unless another superstar like Best goes beyond football, of course, after the 21st century, superstars beyond football are not uncommon, but that is largely due to Bosman.

After the Bosman Act has an impact, it will be the transfer spurt period in which players hope for a higher treatment. After that, the influence of the agent will become more and more important. This does not prevent Audridge from letting Andrew prepare for the rainy day. Good communication, building relationships with the club, and using the elder brother Barnett’s business network in Europe and the United States to establish contacts are the key factors for the agent’s ability to recruit players in the future.

Therefore, 21-year-old Andrew, although there is no client in the company, but his employees have traveled all over the world and established a huge information network.

In the past few years, Aldridge has studied throughout Europe, and Andrew has been collecting information and has been in contact with Aldridge.

Aldridge used one of the most stupid ways to help Andrew pick players.

The youth team player information of clubs around the world made Aldridge look at, including photos, which can make Aldridge pay attention, Andrew will personally come to establish a relationship, and if there are young players who have a hard life, Andrew will even provide free support, which is also Aldrich's meaning is called early investment, because as long as he can become a player's agent, even if he completes one or two transfers, it will be tens of thousands of times in return.

Aldridge wants to clean the first team of the Millwall club, then the next step is naturally to find players, but also young and obedient players.

So Andrew said first: "Remember the guy in the north of Brazil? He was hesitating recently. Is he signing with Corinthian to hear him say that there are other teams contacting him? I asked for my meaning last month. I don’t have any suggestions. If you want, find him."

Aldrich’s mind hasn’t been put on the player yet, but he listened to Andrew and shook his head: “Forget it, sign him without a labor certificate. Besides, he hasn’t signed with you yet, but after he signs, you can sign with him. Talk about this intention, promise to help him land in Europe, let him make more money, I will go to the Netherlands tomorrow."

The Brazilian guy in Andrew's mouth is not a simple character. He is the main force of the future World Cup champion. Mr. World Football and the Golden Globe winner, Rivaldo.

Rivaldo lived very hard a few years ago. After the loss of his father, his mother supported the family. Andrew was then supporting the young Rivaldo, which was only twenty pounds a month, but the purchasing power of the pound plus the standard of living in Brazil is enough. Let Rivaldo no longer be distracted by family burdens.

Andrew nodded and said, "Well, wait until he can get a labor certificate before letting him come to Millwall."

Aldridge reluctantly denied: "Don't, you must not have this idea. If he can go to the giants, let him go to the giants. This is an important time for you to build your reputation and fame. If you sign a good player Just plug it into his brother's club, who would be willing to sign a contract with you?"

Andrew scratched his head, intending to end this topic, and asked, "What are you doing in the Netherlands?"

Aldrich spread his hands and said, "Form a coaching team."

...

Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Aldrich came to the world-famous stadium Arena in the city in casual clothes.

Here, there is an Ajax youth training base. When La Masia has not yet risen by the convenience of digging a corner after the Bosman rule, the most famous youth training base in Europe and the world is the only one. Ajax’s De-Toekomst is famous, in Dutch, it means the future.

In the summer of 1994, no one realized that Ajax’s future was about to be destroyed by Bosman.

There are numerous training grounds in this youth training base. Players of all ages and echelons under the leadership of the coach show their proud talents. Among the crowds on the field, there are both parents of children and **** from different clubs. Explore.

When Aldridge last came here, it was Ajax’s draft day. At that time, there were many people in the crowd. Many parents brought their children to the draft. However, children who meet the Ajax TIPS selection criteria are really rare. Little still, Aldridge sympathizes with the children who have not been chosen to cry in tears.

Far away, Aldridge stood outside the training ground and shouted to a young man who was directing player training: "Jenson!"

Jenson Bernard was wearing a relaxed coach uniform. Hearing someone calling himself, he looked back and found Audridge in the distance. Haha walked out with a smile, and waited for the training ground to come to Audridge. Smiled: "The weather is hot and sweaty, so don't hug. Are you coming to the Netherlands to study again?"

Aldridge lived in this neighborhood for a period of time, and shared a rent with the Jenson Bernard, so he formed a good relationship.

"Are you still a coach? Not promoted?"

Aldridge looked at the training ground with a smile on his face. Those hard-working children were enviable. Dutch football also made people respectful. 433, eternal offensive football.

Jenson shrugged and said with pity: "There are too many talents here, it's my turn to be carried by someone."

Aldridge struck his ribs with his elbows, and said with a smirk: "Oh, what a sissy tone Jenson was when he had the ambition to become the head coach of Ajax."

Jenson Bernard is a combination of luck and misfortune.

He was favored by Ajax at a very young age, but after six years of training with Ajax, his talent seemed to be used up, but he was not expelled by Ajax, this is Ajax’s Convention, so Jenson completed the transfer and turned from a player to a coach. Now Jenson, who is only 23 years old, is already a veteran coach of the Ajax youth camp. After all, he stayed here for four years. as long as!

Jensen rubbed his ribs and smiled bitterly: "I can't stand it anymore. I didn't think that I was growing old with children every day. This is a kind of torture."

Aldridge turned his head to look at him and said softly: "Come help me, promote you to be an assistant coach."

Jansen said with a sneer: "I'm not interested in joking."

"I'm serious, oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Aldridge Hall. My family is in London. I own a football club named Millwall. Next season, Millwall will be in England. Battle in the First Division."

Aldrich stared at Jensen sincerely and said solemnly.

He knows Jenson. On the days of shared tenancy, they have long talks all night long, discussing football tactics, analyzing game videos, and have their own views on the future development of football.

Jenson has been unwilling to work in the youth camp since he became a coach, so he learned a lot of knowledge, including how to be an assistant coach or even a head coach. Of course, they are all talking on the paper, without any practical experience.

And Aldridge is also inexperienced now, he can hire an experienced assistant coach, but such an assistant coach is bound to be old-fashioned and weighty, and his authority will be divided in the locker room. At that time, he does not know who the player listens to.

Aldridge wants to clean up Millwall’s current coaching team, not including the ordinary coaches who routinely train. Most of those coaches are physical coaches, and the coaching team related to the team’s tactics is the core of the team. Know better than anyone.

Players on the team can make mistakes. One player makes mistakes and can be compensated by another player. However, if the coaching staff makes mistakes, there is no room for remedies.

Therefore, he wants to form his own coaching staff, the core of which is the key to winning the team's tactics.

Coaches like Jenson usually have contracts that expire at the end of June, so Aldridge first came to the Netherlands to dig people, in order to avoid the difficulty of digging people in July.

Jenson saw that Aldridge did not seem to be joking, so he asked tentatively, "Assistant coach?"

Aldridge nodded.

"salary?"

"The monthly salary is 1,000 pounds, and the contract is updated once a year."

"housing?"

"Provided by the club."

"Fuck you!"

Janson licked his lips and nodded fiercely.

There are too many youth coaches like him in Ajax. Even if he has a monthly salary of three hundred pounds, even if he is a high salary, the treatment proposed by Audridge makes it impossible for him to refuse.

After being excited, Jenson said again: "Do you need anyone else?"

"How much you can dig, I want it all. Of course, the maximum age is 25 years old. I don't want a generation gap within the coaching staff, and I don't want someone to rely on the old to sell the old."

"Yes, there are a few of you who knew each other. I went to be a lobbyist. What do you say about treatment?"

Assistant coaches must be paid more than other coaches.

"The monthly salary is 600 pounds, provided by the club."

"Wait for my good news."

Watching Jenson trotting and leaving, Aldridge looked up to the sky, facing the new season two months later, he was at least confident.
