Chapter 71 Believe in the power of household registration book, my friend!
"Ha, Jose, I finally see you!"
When Yang Hao saw Jose Vega, his enthusiasm was a little excessive, which surprised Jose Vega a little.
He had originally asked Paul Futre whether this young head coach would be difficult to deal with?
After all, I have rarely seen a harmonious relationship between a head coach and his agent.
But Yang Hao's enthusiasm surprised not only Jose Vega but even Paul Futre.
Atletico Madrid's sporting director is becoming increasingly confused about the young coach and always feels that Jose Vega is being plotted against.
"To be honest, Jose, it's really not easy to meet a busy man like you." Yang Hao joked.
Jose Vega could tell it was a complaint.
"I've been traveling to France recently to handle Pauleta's transfer." The Portuguese agent explained casually.
What is the reality?
He has been back in Spain for several days and has been busy with Figo's affairs.
Yang Hao didn't care. How could Atletico Madrid's current momentum be compared with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Deportivo La Coruña?
Not to mention Figo's world record transfer, Atletico Madrid couldn't even afford Pauleta's transfer of nearly 10 million euros. It was normal for the agent to give Yang Hao the cold shoulder.
It is even estimated that if Paul Futre had not come forward, Jose Vega might not have come.
"I know you're busy, so I won't be too polite. Just be direct."
"good."
"Hugo Leal is not part of my plan."
Yang Hao was very direct, and just one sentence made Jose Vega's face turn very ugly.
"I know that many teams are interested in Hugo Leal. He is indeed a talent, but he is not suitable for me. I hope you understand this."
José Vega gave a forced smile and nodded.
"Of course, I believe that you must have already scouted a team in the past period of time. It's better to be away from home than to play at home twice. I think I'll entrust this matter to you. Atletico Madrid wants a transfer fee of 10 million euros."
Hugo Leal is now 20 years old, very young, but he is already a Portugal international. He played a lot last season, but he lost his position under the coaching of Yang Hao and performed well.
The reason why Yang Hao asked for 10 million euros was because in his previous life, Hugo Leal received exactly this amount when he transferred to Paris Saint-Germain after playing in the Spanish Second Division for a year.
"This is a bit difficult. Hugo is very capable, but based on his performance last season, he cannot command this price." Jose Vega shook his head.
The national team ace player Pauleta only costs nearly 10 million, and the young player Hugo Leal wants this amount?
"You can definitely do it." Yang Hao looked at him with a smile.
"If you say so, then I can only answer you that I don't have that ability." Jose Vega was a little annoyed and felt that Yang Hao was putting pressure on him.
"I heard that Porto is also interested in Hugo Leal?" Yang Hao did not respond and changed the subject.
Jose Vega glanced at Paul Futre, somewhat confused as to what Yang Hao meant.
"I said that Hugo is a very strong and talented player and many clubs are interested in him."
Yang Hao smiled and nodded, "Then let's talk about it. I want to exchange Hugo Leal for Deco and Carvalho from Porto. Do you think it's feasible?"
Jose Vega couldn't keep up with Yang Hao's train of thought and didn't answer immediately, but instead began to think carefully.
Deco, who is about to turn 23, is from Corinthians in Brazil. He transferred to Benfica for 4 million euros in 1997, but did not get a position in Benfica. He was loaned to Arvika in the second-level Portuguese League, where he performed well, scoring 13 goals in 32 games and helping Arvika successfully win promotion to the Super League.
In the 98/99 season, he was loaned to Salgueiros by Benfica, where he performed well. In the middle of the season, he was signed by Porto for 8 million euros.
Last season in Porto, Deco became the team's main attacking midfielder. Although he only scored 1 goal, he had 7 assists. In the Champions League, he even put up an eye-catching statistic of 3 goals and 4 assists in 11 games. He even almost helped Porto overturn Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals.
It can be said that Deco's strength is far superior to Hugo Leal, not to mention that he has Carvalho as well.
The 22-year-old Carvalho joined Porto's youth training in 1995 and has been loaned out since then. He was at Setubal last season, but only played 11 times and his performance was average.
In contrast, Jose Vega's focus was on Deco, with Carvalho being irrelevant.
"Mr. Yang, there is no doubt that Hugo Leal is a genius and a Portuguese international, but for now, there is still a big gap between him and Deco."
"How much money is missing?" Yang Hao was very straightforward.
Jose Vega was somewhat uncomfortable with Yang Hao's negotiation style, which was too direct and too sharp.
Seeing the Portuguese agent fall silent again, Yang Hao smiled and said, "Deco may have performed well, but he is Brazilian and only has Portuguese nationality. Hugo Leal is a Portuguese international."
Yang Hao did not mean to belittle the Brazilian players, he was just stating the truth.
Foreign aid is still foreign aid after all, and local household registration books are everywhere.
There is one in the Premier League, in La Liga, and in the Portuguese Super League.
Believe in the power of household registration book, my friend!
"It's hard for me to say. I have to talk to Porto president Pinto da Costa before I can give you a reply."
Yang Hao nodded, this was what should be done, but he still had no intention of giving in.
"So, De Coga and Carvalho, I'll use Hugo Leal in exchange and add another 5 million euros."
At this moment, Jose Vega finally began to be moved.
Especially the look he gave Yang Hao, he really looked at him with some admiration.
That's 5 million euros.
"Mr. Yang, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but can Atletico Madrid afford this amount of money now?"
Before meeting Yang Hao, Jose Vega talked with Paul Futre for a long time.
After Yang Hao took over the team, the most commonly used method was exchange.
They exchanged with Sevilla, with Real Betis, and now they want to exchange with Porto. It is obvious that they have no money.
As for the sale of Belleron and others to Deportivo La Coruna, firstly, the price has not been negotiated yet, and secondly, even if the transfer really happens, is Atletico Madrid willing to use the money to introduce Deco and Carvalho?
Yang Hao grinned, "Paul hasn't told you yet, has he?"
Jose Vega was stunned for a moment and looked at Paul Futre. The latter began to sweat and kept winking at him: Don't look at me like that, you'll be exposed.
"I am now the third largest shareholder of Atletico Madrid. I just signed the contract two days ago, so what I say still counts."
Jose Vega was genuinely shocked.
Not to mention him, I'm afraid the whole world would never have thought that Yang Hao was actually a shareholder of Atletico Madrid. This...
"It's settled. 5 million euros. I want Deco and Carvalho. You take Hugo Leal. If you're capable, you can sell him for a higher price. I don't mind."
After a pause, Yang Hao brought up another matter, "I heard that you represent almost all of Sporting Lisbon's players. I'm very interested in one of their young players."
Jose Vega was depressed to find that since he met Yang Hao, he had been led by the nose and could not take the initiative.
"Are you talking about Quaresma?"
This is the most talented young talent of Sporting Lisbon, known as Figo II.
"No."
"Dani?" Known as Rui Costa II.
"Neither, his name is Cristiano Ronaldo."
Jose Vega frowned and shook his head, "I haven't heard of it."
He didn't even know whether his company had signed the player, so he could only go back and check.
"I'm interested in him, bring him to Atletico."
Jose Vega didn't say much.
A 15-year-old young player, whose name he had never heard of, and he thought he probably had no talent.
As for why Yang Hao wanted to get him, there were too many reasons.
What Jose Vega could think of was that someone around Cristiano Ronaldo, or some relative, had tried every means to find Yang Hao, so he casually brought the young player to Atletico Madrid.
That's all.
This kind of thing was so common that Jose Vega didn't take it seriously.
Just like Paul Futre was not surprised that Yang Hao signed Ramos, it was all human nature.
…
After seeing Jose Vega off, Yang Hao locked himself in his office and enjoyed himself secretly.
This is the advantage of time travelers.
Even a super agent like Jose Vega, how could he know that among the three players mentioned by Yang Hao today, it was Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he had never heard of, who would become a superstar in the future?
Who would have thought that Deco would become the world's top midfielder and Carvalho would become the world's top defender in the future?
Even Jose Vega himself would not have thought that all this had nothing to do with him.
Because in two years, that guy named Jorge Mendes will poach Quaresma and Ronaldo from him, and then move Quaresma to Barcelona and Ronaldo to Manchester United, and become famous overnight.
He then took advantage of the conflict between Jose Vega and Porto to win the agency rights of many Porto players in one fell swoop. With the momentum of Porto winning the Champions League in 2004, he became the most sought-after super agent in European football.
Now Jose Vega is still immersed in the dream of becoming a big name in Portuguese football and cannot extricate himself.
In fact, there is another player in Sporting Lisbon, that is Jose Fonte, who is hailed as a central defender incubator in the future.
But now, he himself is the object of incubation, so what else is there to incubate?
However, Yang Hao remembered another thing.
What should Mourinho do after he poached Deco and Carvalho?
Without the glory of Porto, can the Portuguese madman still be that special one?
The more he thought about it, the more interesting it became, and Yang Hao was in a very good mood.
Over the past period of time, his attempts to get close to Mourinho were not completely fruitless. At least he got Mourinho's private phone number. If Mourinho really fails to achieve results in coaching in the future, Yang Hao will definitely call him.
We don't have anything else, but an assistant coach position is still acceptable.
What?
Juanma Lillo?
Who says there is only one assistant coach?
Mourinho is really good at coaching defense. Let him be in charge of defensive training, and he will definitely be five stars.
Well, without the madman , European football is still a little incomplete (gloating face).
