Chapter 102 Who Is It?

John Stein Olsen, a former Denmark international, served as a scout for Ajax after retirement, specializing in player inspections in Scandinavia. Over the years, he has introduced many Ajax first team from northern Europe. An outstanding player with outstanding strength.

The Ibrahimovic in front of Yang Yang is one of John Steen Olsen's masterpieces.

Due to his excellent recommendation resume in the past, John Steen Olsen has been passed down a bit in Ajax, and many people even think that whatever he strongly recommends to the club is top-notch. talent.

Yang Yang had also heard the legend of John Steen Olsen in De Tokmost, but he had never seen it.

"Who is it?" Yang Yang asked curiously.

He really wanted to know who deserved the title of Zlatan Ibrahimovic II.

"I don't know the specifics." Maxwell shook his head, "but I heard that the club also attaches great importance to this player is following the national team to Portugal to play the national team's European competition. Olsen, even Van Gaal, the club's technical director, would personally go out and convince him to join Ajax."

"Even your inquiries haven't been able to find out the news. It seems that the club is hiding deep." Fermaelen said.

Maxwell is De Tokmost's bag to inquire, and the information is the most well-informed.

"Che, what's so great about having a technical director? When Ajax asked me to come, John Stein Olsen, technical director Leo Benhak and then manager Coco Adriance The three of them went out at the same time, which moved me with sincerity, otherwise, I would not want to join Ajax." Ibrahimovic said disdainfully.

All three of Yang Yang laughed, this guy was jealous.

But it's no wonder that the club has already begun to look for his successor before the others have left.

Of course, this is understandable. After all, it is not a matter of a day or two for Ibrahimovic to leave the team, and the young player that Ajax is about to introduce is afraid of focusing on the future, no matter when the Swedish center will be. Leaving the team will not have any impact, let alone conflict with Ibrahimovic's position.

But let's not say, what level of people the other party dispatched, which undoubtedly shows the importance they attach to the players.

Although the information disclosed by Maxwell is very broken, combined with Yang Yang's own observations in the past few days, he feels that Van Gaal is indeed transforming Ajax, not only the entire internal management system, but also the club's business model.

He has promised Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart, Trabelsi and other big-name players in the team. As long as the team paid a reasonable price for them in the summer of 2004, Ajax agreed to release them. This is something Ajax would not have agreed to before.

Looking at the club's signings, it is obvious that they are also planning ahead, that is, to make up for the hidden dangers that several players may leave the team in advance.

Yang Yang is neutral about the reforms promoted by Van Gaal. After all, he is not familiar with club management, but he believes that Van Gaal's reforms will seriously damage the team's fighting spirit. Yang Yang is against it.

He didn't dare to say that he didn't see others, but as far as Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart and Trabelsi were concerned, all of them were full of energy and high fighting spirit, and they all tried to prove themselves.

The reason is very simple. Their performance in the last six months of Ajax is not only playing for the old club, but also proving their work ethic and ability to the new club. The better they play, the more attractive they are when transferring. and higher bargaining power.

Conversely, if they slack off, I'm afraid they won't even try to find a good home in summer.

During the chat, the three continued to play cards, but not long after, Sneijder came.

Ajax's small detached houses in the resort are all four people, Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic are three people in one, but Sneijder and others often come to visit, especially after seeing the landlord After the fun, but tonight he also brings a message.

"Boss wants to see you."

…………

…………

Putting on his coat, Yang Yang came to Ronald Koeman's small detached house with a belly full of questions.

It was Luther Carroll who opened the door for him, but to his surprise, Louis van Gaal, the technical director, was there.

From his dusty appearance, it is obvious that he only came to Portugal today, which makes Yang Yang think of Maxwell's words, and I heard that Van Gaal is going to focus on investigating the name recommended by John Stein Olsen. Center forward.

"Boss, are you looking for me?" Yang Yang stepped forward and asked, and nodded towards Van Gaal at the same time.

In front of people, they always keep their distance.

"Well, Yang, come and sit." Ronald Koeman greeted Yang Yang.

Don't look at Yang Yang's only four games for the team, but each game is crucial and has played a key factor, bringing huge benefits to Ajax. Now he is a management boss Players who leave marks in their minds.

"Is something wrong with me?" Yang Yang asked strangely after sitting down.

But it was not Ronald Koeman who answered, but Louis van Gaal, who was sitting opposite.

"Andrew is your agent?"

"Andrew?" Yang Yang pondered for a moment, "Oh, yes, he was indeed my agent when I signed with the club, but I didn't know him well, but I really couldn't find a candidate at the beginning, so Henk Di Mel recommended his agent to me."

Having said that, Yang Yang looked at Van Gaal and Ronald Koeman strangely, confused.

"What's the matter? Is something wrong?"

Van Gaal knows Yang Yang's situation best, and he also knows what happened to Yang Yang at the time, so he believes in Yang Yang's words.

"Your agent met with an official from Club Twente in Amsterdam this afternoon and was accidentally bumped into by a media reporter and mentioned your name in an interview, you know, if the media If you want to hype, there are a lot of articles here to do.”

Yang Yang frowned when he heard it, is this too careless?

"I don't know about this."

"Of course, we all believe in you. Fortunately, our relationship with this newspaper is not bad this time, and it has been temporarily suppressed, but you know, it is the winter break transfer period, and such sensitive things have been known by the fans. , the impact is very bad." Van Gaal reminded with concern.

Of course Yang Yang knows that many fans have just accepted Yang Yang. If such news comes out at this time, the impact on Yang Yang will be very bad, and there may even be many fans attacking and complaining about him in the future.

Ronald Koeman and Luther Carroll looked at each other and felt helpless.

"If I remember correctly, this Andrew should be from a small agency near Amsterdam?" Van Gaal asked.

"Well, many Almere players are represented by their company."

"The team intends to talk to you about contract renewal in the near future. Such a small company can no longer handle your affairs. Hurry up and find an opportunity to change it." Van Gaal advised.

Yang Yang was also quite helpless, he didn't expect to change agents so soon.

But Van Gaal's reminder is also right.

In the past, he was Yang Yang, and no one knew him when he walked on the street. Media reporters were not interested in him at all. It didn't matter who his manager was, as long as he could sign and negotiate on his behalf, it was different now.

In just four games, Yang Yang's status in the hearts of Ajax fans has risen rapidly, and he is very attractive among the Dutch media. If it weren't for the good relationship between the newspaper and Ajax this time, he would have disclosed the information to the team in advance. , Ajax handled the public relations in a timely manner. Once the newspaper office came out, it would definitely be a big blow to Yang Yang.

The problem exposed by this incident is that Yang Yang's agent is no longer able to deal with his current affairs.

In just a few months, Yang Yang has risen so fast that it is estimated that his agent did not understand Yang Yang's current situation and situation, so he would make such a serious mistake.

"To be honest, I'm really at a loss when I suddenly have to change again." Yang Yang looked at Van Gaal with a wry smile.

The three people on the opposite side are also very helpless. This kid is all focused on football. In addition to studying at school, he basically spends all the rest of his time practicing football, and his family is not around. How can he have time to think about other things?

"Look for a big-name agency, like IMG, or something else, they'll all be very interested in you," Van Gaal suggested.

Today's Yang Yangke has long been different from what he used to be, and it would be an understatement to say that he is hot.

Of course, he has not been hot enough to let big companies and big-name agents come to the door, after all, he has only played four games.

European football brings together football talents from all over the world. Every year, there are countless new stars. How many people quickly disappear after playing a few good games. They can really stand out from thousands of competitors and climb all the way to the top of the pyramid Yes, how many people are there?

It's like Van der Vaart, an injury, took off his meniscus. He is destined to fail to reach the height expected by others in his life, and he will never regain the style of galloping on the green field on the left side before the injury.

…………

…………

Yang Yang thought all the way back to the small detached house, where Sneijder, Fairmalon and Maxwell were fighting the landlord.

Ibrahimovic stayed silent and looked very aggrieved. When he asked, it turned out that it was the Swedish center who lost so badly but did not admit it. Germany.

As soon as they heard about Yang Yang's problem, everyone also became concerned.

It's not uncommon in professional football for agents to screw up players.

Change, this is a decision that everyone agrees on, the key is who to change?

I don’t know if Van Gaal is not pleasing to the eye, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic objected to the IMG agency on the spot, believing that these big companies have strict systems, but the agents lack courage, are not smooth enough, and are very rigid and dogmatic.

"My last agent was from IMG. He even recommended me to go to Southampton. I was so angry that I didn't spit at him. With my strength, I only deserve to go to Southampton? So I immediately told him to get out."

Sneijder recommended a native Dutch agent. It is said that many Dutch players are authorized to represent him. He has a wide network of contacts in the Netherlands, and his ability is also very good. It is very reassuring to do things.

Yang Yang couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he just put it on hold for the time being.

When I return to Amsterdam, I will cancel the contract with the previous agent first.

It's Saturday, and it's getting closer to the shelves. Please vote a lot, thank you!
