Beast King Costa

Chapter 398
"Santos! What the hell are you doing!? Don't you know what Rui Costa means in our Benfica and in the entire Portuguese football world?!"

"Moreover! The reason why our Benfica can be undefeated in the new season, widen the point gap with Porto and Sporting Lisbon, and even win the Europa League is all thanks to Diego, the 'popular fried chicken' s arrival!"

"You are doing well now, let Rui and Diego down! Even an outstanding young man like David, as well as Nelson, Beto, Nelson and other main players are overwhelmingly chilling!"

"I can tell you very clearly that the kid Diego doesn't want to leave Benfica at all! Everything is Jesuardo Ferreira's aggressive method! He is aware of your emotional problems, so he deliberately told you in the post-match press conference If you say so loudly that you want to chase Diego, you will be fooled by him!"

"Also! What do you mean by what you said to the media today!? Isn't this telling the outside world that the conflict in our Benfica locker room has intensified?!"

……

In Felipe Vieira's office, Fernando Santos drank coffee in silence, listening to Felipe Vieira's angry accusations, Fernando Santos chose not to say a word—not only for his own Justify his behavior and ignore how Felipe Vieira vented his emotions.

Seeing Fernando Santos in such a state of complete silence, Felipe Vieira was even angrier.

"Santos! You should give me an explanation! Could it be! Do you want to dismiss get out of class?!"

Asked by Felipe Vieira, Fernando Santos slowly raised his head, looked at Felipe Vieira and said slowly: "Chairman Vieira, I just want to solve those who have problems. It’s just a matter of different players! I do this, and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it!”

"you!!!"

What Fernando Santos said made Felipe Vieira so angry.

I saw Felipe Vieira trembling with anger, accusing Fernando Santos: "You did this, there is nothing wrong with it!? Lost to Alkmaar, a mid-range Eredivisie team, Is this inappropriate!? Now the mainstream European media are saying that the loss of the Portuguese Super League to the mid-range team of the Eredivisie means that the Portuguese Super League is not as strong as the Eredivisie! This 1-5 defeat has lost the entire Portuguese football face!"

"President Vieira, don't worry!"

Fernando Santos stood up and said very flatly: "Since the club appointed me as the head coach of the Benfica men's football team, then I should have an absolute say in the football team. Similarly, I will also make arrangements for my skills and tactics. And lead to the team's performance problems, responsible for the team's performance."

After all, Fernando Santos even waved his hand directly: "The club can change the coach if they want! Anyway, my team only needs people who fully obey the orders of the head coach, and also only need players who are loyal to me, the head coach." , don't need any half-hearted players! Just leave it at that! I'm going back to take training sessions."

After leaving such a sentence, Fernando Santos left Felipe Vieira's office without caring what Felipe Vieira, the club chairman, was about to say.

After waiting for Fernando Santos to leave for a long time, Felipe Vieira sighed helplessly after a long time.

"Hey! Mendes reminded me before that Fernando Santos' emotional intelligence is the blemish of his being the head coach of the club! I didn't expect it! Jorge Mendes is really a proverb Now! Now, I really have to start thinking about re-screening for the head coach position!"

Just as Felipe Vieira muttered to himself, the phone in front of the desk suddenly came to mind.

"Ring Ling Ling..."

As the saying goes, "Say Cao Cao Cao Cao will be there", at this moment Felipe Vieira is muttering the name of Jorge Mendes, who happens to be Jorge Mendes, the European The football predators called him.

"Hey! Jorge, it's me, Vieira."

Jorge Mendes on the other end of the phone looked very surprised: "Ha! Chairman Vieira, I wanted to call you a few days ago, but I was too busy and forgot... Why does your voice sound so What about fatigue? Could it be that you have been too tired recently and haven't had a good rest?"

"It's a good rest. It's the football team that gives me a headache..."

Jorge Mendes is also an old friend of Felipe Vieira, so Felipe Vieira also told Jorge Mendes quite bluntly about the problems in the team .

"Jorge! The question you reminded me at that time was really hit by you. Fernando Santos' emotional intelligence and his stubborn and uncivilized personality will really become a time bomb. Now! He's had trouble with most of the main players, even Rui Costa has been sidelined by him."

"what……"

Jorge Mendes is still dealing with things in Spain, so he doesn't know that the locker room problem in the Benfica team is so big.I saw Jorge Mendes responded with some seriousness: "I read the "Marca" today, but I saw something about Benfica's upset 1-5 loss to Alkmaar yesterday, and in the report It was also mentioned that Benfica seems to have a locker room problem. But I didn't expect...Fernando Santos even broke Rui Costa into the sidelines! Rui is the banner figure of Benfica and even the entire Portuguese football !"

"Yeah! That's why I have a very headache. I have already told Fernando Santos that the kid Diego is very determined to play in Benfica. As a result! Fernando Santos has been entangled in Jesuardo Ferre Among La’s aggressive methods, he revealed to the media today that David, Diego, and Rui will not be included in the 18-man squad for the next round against Maritimo!”

"This……"

Jorge Mendes, the well-informed "Football Buffett", was also shocked by Fernando Santos' showmanship.

"So! The top management of the club has made a decision!"

Felipe Vieira told Jorge Mendes in a very calm tone: "Start the coaching change plan! Next we will consider the coach who is currently in free agency! Once there is a suitable candidate, we will immediately Replace Fernando Santos! The club can't tolerate Fernando Santos using the club's results to vent his emotions!"

Hearing what Felipe Vieira said, Jorge Mendes immediately understood what he should do.

I saw Jorge Mendes responded very seriously: "No problem! Next, I will ask people to screen out free agent coaches who can match the status of Benfica's Portuguese super giants. Next week, I will let people choose Potentially interested candidates should be faxed to your office. Let Chairman Vieira go through it first, and once there is a suitable candidate that the senior management of Benfica thinks, then let’s start negotiations.”

"This matter, I hope it can be done as soon as possible."

"That's fine! Give me two days! This weekend, I'll send someone a list of suitable candidates."

"it is good!"

After all, Felipe Vieira then said playfully: "Also! Jorge, you should know that Porto gave us Benfica the first offer for Diego, right?"

"Oh???"

How could Jorge Mendes not know, after all, Porto's initial offer for Diego was actually Jorge Mendes' proposal for Porto.

But Felipe Vieira can also be regarded as an old acquaintance of Jorge Mendes and has been a partner for many years. Naturally, Jorge Mendes has no need to hide anything.

Jorge Mendes responded very calmly: "Postiga plus a transfer fee of 1500 million euros, I know this. President Vieira, I am not afraid to tell you the truth! At that time, Porto gave I called and asked what kind of offer I thought was more sincere. Should it be a transfer fee offer of 2500 million euros? Or a player exchange plus a transfer fee? In the end, I gave them Postiga plus a transfer fee. suggestion."

"Haha! I guessed that it was your suggestion from Jorge to Porto!"

In this regard, Felipe Vieira was not angry, and even he was very happy. Jorge Mendes regarded himself as a friend very much, and told himself the truth very bluntly.

"After all, if Porto gets Diego, they don't need to keep Postiga. Postiga has played very well this season. He has gradually fulfilled his talent. Let him start to sit firmly. It is indeed inappropriate for an international footballer who has taken the Portuguese national team's starting center position to play as a substitute for Diego! It is better to let him go to Benfica and take Diego's position."

"Indeed, this proposal is quite good, and Porto's offer is also very, very sincere. Postiga plus 1500 million euros! This is basically equivalent to an offer of 3000 million euros."

"Yes! Jesualdo Ferreira is very eager to see Diego play Porto with him. Jesualdo Ferreira also knows the character of Fernando Santos, so he deliberately What was said in the post-match press conference made Fernando Santos suspicious."

"Haha! Facts have proved that Jesualdo Ferreira's purpose has indeed succeeded, but come on!"

Felipe Vieira slowly said his purpose: "We Benfica temporarily reject all offers about Diego! Diego still has a 4-year contract with us Benfica. I'm sure, the club hopes Diego Can continue to stay, and! We will start to enter the issue of improving Diego's contract-Diego's performance so far this season, deserves a maximum salary!"

"So! Jorge, you will definitely be in Lisbon for the Lisbon derby in a while. Then let's have a serious talk about the improvement of Diego's contract!"

"Haha! No problem!"

Little did Felipe Vieira know, Jorge Mendes on the other end of the phone was showing a victorious smile at this time.

Obviously!

Jorge Mendes' goal was easily achieved.
