Chapter 1095 Ultimate Weapon

Barcelona, ​​Princess Sofia Hotel

This hotel is adjacent to Barcelona's home stadium, Camp Nou, and has always been inextricably linked with Barcelona. Many times, Barcelona's top executives secretly met with player agents in this hotel.

The more well-known one is when Barcelona and Madrid competed for Riquelme. It was in this hotel that the agent of the Argentine midfielder Bolonikov was settled, and then Riquelme was brought to the Nou Camp.

Therefore, some people say that if you see Barcelona's high-level executives appearing at the Princess Sofia Hotel at the same time, it proves that Barcelona is secretly planning to buy someone, and it must involve a major transfer.

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

Chairman Russell and Vice Chairman Bartomeu arrived at the Princess Sofia Hotel one after the other, but without alarming anyone, they secretly came to a high-level meeting room under the arrangement of the hotel.

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

During his stay in Barcelona, ​​he has always lived in this hotel. He has met with Barcelona's top management several times, and met with the chairman and vice chairman at the same time. Today is the second time.

He had a hunch that there would be a result tonight.

...

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

Russell and Bartomeu sat down opposite Mendes, looking directly at the agent in front of them.

Although Raiola, relying on the momentum of Yang Yang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has the posture of the world's chief agent, but when it comes to influence, Mendes is probably not inferior, especially in the Iberian Peninsula this one.

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

Bartomeu was talking, but his eyes kept staring at Mendes, wanting to see the change in his expression.

After sitting down, Roselle didn't say a word, just sat on the chair and twirled his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking.

"I know, but I guess you must be mistaken. Manchester City are not thinking of selling Aguero. Instead, they want Pepe. As for Suarez, I have no doubts about the quality of this player, but he There is no way to compare with Cristiano Ronaldo, he is worse." Mendes said unhurriedly.

As an agent with all-hands and eyes in European football, Mendes naturally knows Barcelona's bargaining chip, and he also knows his confidence.

It is no secret that Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United. Ferguson was still there before, and he had no contact with a good place. Naturally, he had no idea, but now that Ferguson has retired, no one can Limit the Portuguese.

Even Manchester United has nothing worthy of his nostalgia.

As Suarez stated, he is eager to go to the best and most powerful giant team in the world to prove himself and reach the pinnacle of his career.

He knows very well that only here can he have a chance to win the coveted Golden Globe.

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

"Maybe you are right, but Jorge, you should know that Real Madrid's attitude towards you is not as good as ours." 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 his requirements, especially in terms of status within the team.

Everyone knows that within Real Madrid, Yang Yang is a unique leader. Even the two local leaders, captain Casillas and vice-captain Ramos, cannot shake his status. The world's leading top scorer also has unparalleled commercial value.

It is impossible for Cristiano Ronaldo to replace Yang Yang. What he wants is to win an equal status and opportunity with Yang Yang, and his bargaining chip is that in the position of left winger, he is No. 1 in the world, far surpassing Hazard.

Real Madrid has concerns about this, obviously because they are worried about internal unity, especially considering Yang Yang's attitude. In addition, it is said that Real Madrid's top management is also divided internally, with some supporting and some opposing, so the progress of 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 winger and right winger, and can play at the same time A center forward can be said to be very comprehensive. If he moves to Barcelona and partners with Messi and Neymar, it will undoubtedly be the most luxurious attacking lineup in the world.

Coupled with Barcelona's midfielder, it is definitely the ultimate weapon that is invincible.

The Barcelona management won the Champions League last season, but failed in La Liga and the Copa del Rey. Now they also want to continue to defend the Champions League, or even three consecutive championships, to reproduce the glorious record of Real Madrid in previous years.

And it's not enough to rely on Neymar, Messi and Sanchez, they also need Cristiano Ronaldo.

...

"Anyway, Josep, our requirements are still the same as before. We want a chance to compete fairly." Mendes said, looking at Bartomeu and Russell with certainty.

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

If you really want to move to Barcelona, ​​even if you can't overwhelm Messi, you must at least keep pace.

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

"To tell you the truth, Vilanova's body is no longer suitable to be the head coach of the team, and the head coach we are currently considering is Gerardo Martino."

"Herrador Martino?" Mendes frowned.

Even though he is well-informed, when he first heard this name, he still felt strange and surprised.

Is there such a figure in European football?

Bartomeu smiled awkwardly and explained: "He just led Argentina's Newell's Old Boys to win the autumn league championship of the Argentine First Division. He highly admires the coaching style of Guardiola and Vilanova."

Mendes pondered for a while, and immediately realized it.

Argentine Newell's Old Boys, isn't this the hometown team Messi played for before coming to Barcelona?

A lot of things are obvious. There must be a reason why Barcelona will use such an unknown head coach. Messi's strong recommendation should be the key, but this kind of thing will definitely not be brought out.

Mendes frowned, and he didn't expect that Messi's influence on Barcelona could even touch the selection of coaches.

"You know, Jorge, Real Madrid has been brilliant in the past few years. They have no shortage of stars. Yang Yang himself is the most dazzling superstar in the world. If Cristiano Ronaldo goes to Real Madrid, even if the Real Madrid management gives Opportunity for fair competition, do you think he can compete with Yang Yang?"

Mendez is silent, it is true.

Even if you don't say that Yang Yang has a preconceived advantage in Real Madrid, let's talk about his performance in Real Madrid these years, Cristiano Ronaldo will definitely not be able to compete, but if you expect Yang Yang's state to decline, it is better to buy a lottery ticket.

If he can't compete, he can only be under the aura of Yang Yang. The more dazzling Yang Yang is at that time, the more embarrassing the situation for Cristiano Ronaldo will be. Even if he is a little careless, he may not even be able to keep the third place in the world.

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

Now Messi is recognized as the second-ranked top superstar in the world, and Cristiano Ronaldo is ranked third. If the two join forces, they will definitely be able to compete against Yang Yang. Who will perform better at that time depends on each other's performance.

From this point of view, joining Barcelona is undoubtedly more beneficial.

"Well, Jorge, let me say something."

Roselle, who hadn't spoken since entering the door, suddenly broke the silence and looked directly at Mendes.

"We tried our best to convince Messi and try to give Cristiano Ronaldo a fair chance and equal status, but we need Cristiano Ronaldo to promise to maintain good cooperation with Messi and Neymar during Barcelona, Together against Yang Yang and his Real Madrid."

When Mendes heard the words of the Barcelona chairman, his heart moved, "Can you talk to Messi?"

"We will do our best." Russell replied.

He is now in a mess because of Neymar, if it wasn't for the Champions League champion to save him, he would probably have to step down now, so he needs a superstar like Cristiano Ronaldo to please the fans now, At the same time, continue to strive for better results to consolidate your position.

Mendes heard Russell's overtones, knowing that they must have talked with Messi, and he dared to say so only if he had hope.

"I will try to convince Cristiano."

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

Mendes nodded without hesitation, "It's no problem, Ferguson is not here, Manchester United is in chaos right now, but..."

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

Russell and Bartomeu both knew it well.

With the current European football transfer situation, 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 abundant, especially considering the salary pressure brought about by the introduction of superstars, but Russell can't take care of these now.

Right now, his most important priority is to keep his position.
