i want to be king

Chapter 24

As Su Dong said to Ronnie before, the agent is important but not important.

For example, Quaresma, who was able to enter the squad in the first round of the new season, and even directly came off the bench, his own potential and strength are important, but the efforts behind the agent should not be underestimated.

The first is opportunity. Nikule, who was introduced with a lot of money, did not perform well in the summer warm-up match. Sporting Lisbon wanted to make up for it and wanted to introduce Jardl. For this reason, they did not hesitate to send away three main players including winger Mponsa.

So, in this case, two young talents, Quaresma and Marcelino, both entered the first team.

Who is on?

There must be a struggle behind this.

The role of the agent is reflected at this time, especially a big-name agent like Vega.

After that, Quaresma became famous in the first battle, which was a win-win situation for the players, agents and the team.

In the past, Su Dong didn't understand these things, but after being in contact with Ronnie and Jose Semedo for a long time, he naturally understood the rules and operations of the big teams. He even heard that some players were obviously very capable, but they couldn't get the chance to perform for various reasons.

The value of an agent lies in whether he can make players play football with peace of mind.

Ronnie is also thinking about renewing his contract and raising his salary, which is actually a very normal interest demand.

He thinks he deserves a new contract, so he can negotiate it through his agent. Whether the club will give it or not will only be known after the negotiation. Vega's attitude is that Quaresma is developing smoothly, and there is Marcelino in the first team. Ronnie is still young.

But Ronnie couldn't wait any longer.

Sometimes, contradictions are as simple and straightforward as that.

……

"I have been in contact with Ronnie a few times before. I believe you should have heard of it. He mentioned you to me and was full of praise for you. He said that even if you go to the youth team of Sporting Lisbon, you can definitely play the main force. Let me definitely come and see."

After hearing what Mendes said, Su Dong suddenly realized that it was Ronnie who recommended him.

He had borrowed some money before and asked Ronnie to take his father to Lisbon to see a doctor, and the boy reciprocated.

"Then what do you think?" Su Dong asked with concern.

He was somewhat nervous, because he really wanted to know what level he was in the eyes of these professional agents?
Mendes did not answer, but turned to look at Jorge Manuel beside him.

"Sporting Lisbon's youth training camp, there are two forwards on the same team as Ronnie. One is Giswi, who is tall and strong, and the other is Lorenzo, who is very fast. My preliminary judgment is that you and Giswi have mutual advantages, and Lorenzo is slightly inferior."

After hearing Jorge Manuel's evaluation, Su Dong didn't have any ideas, but Mendes looked at the partner in surprise, his eyes were full of questions, as if to say, are you sure this evaluation is pertinent?

Jorge Manuel gave Mendez a slight nod of approval.

Gisvi is an air fighter trained by Sporting Lisbon's youth training, not to mention Lorenzo's strength. He was loaned to Bristol in League One last season and performed very well. He was left in the team this season.

It was previously reported that if Jardel could not come, Lorenzo would be promoted to the first team as Nikule's substitute.

According to Jorge Manuel's evaluation, Mendes felt that his position on Su Dong should be mentioned again.

"We watched today's game, and my biggest feeling is that Sporting de Portugal can no longer satisfy you." Jorge Manuel said, "I suggest that the winter break is as short as it is, and the end of the season as long as it is. You should go to a better team, play a better league, and continue to maintain this momentum of progress. This is very important."

Su Dong understood that he had just turned 17 and was in the stage of rapidly improving his strength.

Games, especially games with exercise value, are crucial to him.

For example, Quaresma is playing better and better in the first team now, and he is making rapid progress. Although Ronnie is in the youth team and plays very calmly, his progress speed is obviously slower than that of Quaresma.

"Frankly speaking, Su, even without Ronnie's strong recommendation, I'm still very interested in you. I know that your previous agent was very unprofessional, but it doesn't matter. If you are willing, I will be in charge of your business in the future. I will help you draw up a detailed short-to-medium-term career plan as soon as possible, and do my best to plan it for you."

…………

…………

Mendes' proposal is very attractive to Su Dong.

What he needs most now is to work hard to improve his own strength on the one hand, but at the same time, he also needs an agent to run outside and plan for him.

The head coach Gorba told him before that three or four teams are paying attention to him, and Su Dong should at least figure out what he is going to do next?
Transfers are really important to professional players.

Some players transferred inadvertently, and their development momentum was aborted. For example, Benfica's winger Simao also went to Barcelona with the title of Figo II, but what happened?The season is back in disgrace.

It's not that Simao's strength is not good, but that his transfer to Barcelona was a mistake.

Therefore, finding a reliable agent is as important as improving your strength.

But even so, Su Dong didn't negotiate with Mendes on the spot, because he didn't know Mendes well.

If it were Jose Vega, Su Dong probably wouldn't hesitate.

……

Back at the apartment, Su Dong practiced his body for a while.

After persisting in physical training for a period of time, his strength in the four attributes of the body has been greatly improved. The minimum strength has reached 71 points, while the speed has reached 78 points, the explosive power has also reached 76 points, and the endurance has reached 77 points.

Not only that, but the technical attributes are also above 70 points.

And during this time, Su Dong has not been idle, and has accumulated a lot of champion points. He saw that the four attributes of defense are almost full, so he directly raised the potential to 99 points, and now his strength is above 60 points.

As an unpretentious and boring virgin man, Su Dong still wants to upgrade his attributes after training all his attributes.

In addition, Su Dong still has a star ability card that he hasn't redeemed yet. He can't spare it for the time being. He wants to make Batty GOL more handy, and then exchange for a new star ability card.

Sooner or later, he will become a man with dual cards and dual standby!

As your strength improves, you will naturally be more comfortable training.

But in the face of Pontes' training, Su Dong still felt a lot of pressure, because the difficulty also increased.

For example, push-ups, he has gradually shortened the distance between his arms from the original double-arm support, and now he is trying to single-arm support, and the two arms take turns to do it. It is conceivable that this is still very difficult.

However, having tasted the sweetness from the recent hard training, Su Dong was able to persevere.

……

After exercising for a while, he was sweating again. After taking a shower, Su Dong washed his clothes by the way.

Sitting on the bed, seeing that the time was about the same, he called Ronnie's dormitory.

It was Jose Semedo who answered the phone.

This guy is always in such a cheerful mood, as soon as he heard Su Dong's voice, he started talking about the game this evening.

"Ronnie killed the other three players by himself, but it's a pity that he stopped the food after finishing the goal."

And the price for these words is that Semedo was kicked by Ronnie, and he ran away with a sound.

After Ronnie answered the phone, Su Dong asked about the game, but he didn't care too much. After all, he, an outsider, didn't need to worry about the Sporting Lisbon youth team game.

Su Dong quickly talked about Mendes.

"I think he's right in saying that this next step is very important to you, and you shouldn't rush into a decision."

"According to the transfer regulations, the fastest time is January [-]st. In this case, you still have three months to think about it slowly. The most important thing is to see if there are any games to play. If you want to be on the bench, don't even go to Real Madrid."

Su Dong deeply agrees with this.

He should still be more down-to-earth, talk to the other party slowly, and see the sincerity of the other party.

Of course, this shouldn't be his concern, so he'd better have an agent.

"I know Mendes. He is quite reliable, and he is a very careful person. He speaks and does things very well. Most importantly, he will take our ideas and needs into his heart, which Vega can't do."

"As I said just now, Vega is like Real Madrid, with a big name, a resounding sign, and indeed a lot of resources, but that is of no use to us at this stage, it's just good-looking."

Ronnie has a very clear plan and understanding of this.

"Besides, don't take the agent too seriously. They provide services for us. We have full control over the terms of the contract. For example, the contract I signed with Jose Vega. Although I authorized him to do all the business, in fact, if I want to contact him with the contract, all I need is a fax."

The reason why Ronnie hasn't made a decision yet is mainly due to consideration of other aspects, such as Sporting Lisbon.

He is currently communicating with technical director Aurelio Pereira. If the technical director does not object, he will immediately terminate the contract with Vega and switch to Mendes' embrace.

Su Dong has absolutely no experience in dealing with agents.

The liar he dismissed before said he was an agent, but in fact he was not formal at all. It is said that he did not even have the qualifications of an agent, so strictly speaking, Su Dong's entire overseas transfer was not standardized, and problems could arise at any time.

Hearing what Ronnie said now, Su Dong also realized that the player still has a lot of dominance in the brokerage affairs.

If so, there is nothing to worry about.

Today's Su Dong is just a third-tier league player, and his biggest advantage is his youth.

Since Mendes can be valued by Ronnie and has also signed the star of hope of Sporting Lisbon, Hugo Viana, there is no need for Sudong to worry too much.

Authorize the player affairs to him and let him manage. Everyone will be happy if it succeeds, and if it fails, they will be replaced later.

Thinking of this, Su Dong has nothing to worry about.
