Chapter 482 Raise the price

"Mr. Chen, congratulations on getting another huge transfer income!"

As soon as he saw Chen Ran, Raiola immediately flattered him.

"Haha, Mino, then I also want to congratulate you. If Pogba's transfer is successful, you will get at least a commission of more than 10 million."

"Hehe, I am also influenced by Mr. Chen. Without the careful training of the Crystal Palace Club, Pogba would not be able to reach his current heights."

Raiola said with a smile.

At this time, it was as if the conflicts between Pogba, Guardiola and other Crystal Palace players did not exist at all.

In the face of huge interests, this is nothing.

"Well, it's good that you know what's going on. Mino, we both got satisfactory results from this cooperation."

"If you find any good ideas in the future, you can continue to send them to the Crystal Palace Club. We can still cooperate like this time. What do you think?"

Chen Ran stood up, poured a glass of red wine himself and handed it to Raiola.

"Hahahaha, Mr. Chen, of course I would love to have a top platform like Crystal Palace Club to help me develop players."

Raiola quickly stepped forward to take the glass with both hands, and then asked diligently: "Mr. Chen, there are currently four clubs interested in bringing in Pogba. Which one do you prefer?"

"Whichever club bids the highest price will sell Pogba to that club."

Chen Ran took a sip of red wine and replied casually.

"Mr. Chen, Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United are all in the Premier League. They are all direct competitors of Crystal Palace for the league championship."

"If Pogba is sold to them, wouldn't it increase the strength of competitors? Aren't you worried at all?"

Raiola looked at Chen Ran curiously.

He originally thought that Chen Ran would ask that Pogba not be sold to a Premier League club but could only be sold to Real Madrid.

For this reason, Raiola was a little regretful before, because without these three Premier League clubs raising the price, he would not be able to get a higher offer from Real Madrid.

However, Chen Ran's current decision is far beyond Raiola's expectations. Although Raiola has the opportunity to earn more commissions, it makes him a little uneasy.

Every time he faced Chen Ran, Raiola could never guess how the opponent would play. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, which was also an important reason why Raiola did not dare to offend Chen Ran easily.

"Hahahaha, Mino, do you think Pogba can really improve the strength of the other team after joining another team?"

Chen Ran smiled and reached out to pat Raiola on the shoulder.

As a reborn player, Chen Ran knows very well how difficult a player Pogba is to maintain.

In a previous life, after Pogba moved to Juventus on a free transfer, Manchester United spent hundreds of millions of euros to buy him back for the first time.

What was the result? Not only did Manchester United fail to win the championship, but the team was in chaos. Although the fault cannot be placed entirely on Pogba alone, it is undeniable that as the biggest star in the team, he

Have an unshirkable responsibility.

Therefore, Chen Ran doesn't mind Pogba joining other Premier League clubs at all. He even wants Pogba to mess up the opponent's locker room.

"Mr. Chen, Pogba is still very capable. Moreover, he is still very young and his future achievements are limitless."

Raiola didn't expect Chen Ran to say that.

Although he completely disagreed with Chen Ran, after all, the two parties were cooperating on a transfer deal worth hundreds of millions of euros. Raiola did not want to stalemate the relationship with Chen Ran at this time, so he could only argue with a wry smile.

One sentence.

"Hahahaha, Mino, I have never denied Pogba's talent and strength. However, judging from his performance at the Crystal Palace Club in the past few years, he has a character problem, which is the biggest obstacle to him becoming a top star.

obstacle."

Chen Ran didn't mean to hide anything, and directly told Raiola what he thought about Pogba.

As the saying goes: "It's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature."

Pogba is no longer a child, and his three views have been established. Even if he knows about his flaws, Chen Ran does not think Raiola has the ability to change.

"."

At this moment, Raiola was speechless.

In fact, he is very clear about Pogba's problem.

However, he is not Pogba's biological father. As long as Pogba can help him make money, of course he will try to follow Pogba's wishes in other matters.

If Raiola really dares to dictate to Pogba and meddle in things, Pogba might be poached by another agent.

You know, the contract between the agent and the player is not very binding.

Especially for big-name players, it is not uncommon for them to fire their agents. Raiola will not do something stupid like letting go of his cash cow.

"Mr. Chen, then should I really contact clubs like Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United?"

Raiola, who was a little worried, had to confirm with Chen Ran again.

"Mino, don't worry, I keep my word. As long as the price satisfies me, Pogba can go to any club."

"That's good. Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will help you get the highest transfer fee."

"Haha, Mino, I still believe in your ability in the transfer market. After all, the higher Pogba's transfer fee, the higher the commission you can get."

"Oh, by the way, Mino, there is one more thing I want to remind you. Regarding Pogba's transfer, you'd better get it done before the European Cup starts."

"Mr. Chen, is it necessary to be in such a hurry? If Pogba performs well in the European Cup, it will be more conducive to raising his transfer value."

Raiola was stunned again. Chen Ran repeatedly made unexpected decisions, which made Raiola feel as if he was always being led by Chen Ran. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"Because I want to lead Belgium to participate in this European Cup, it is impossible for the French team to win the championship trophy. If the French team cannot win the championship, it will be difficult to add to Pogba's transfer value."

"On the contrary, if Pogba's performance is not as expected, it may affect his transfer value. It is best not to do things with small returns and high risks."

"Mr. Chen, are you so sure that the French team will not win this European Cup?"

Raiola asked without giving up.

"What do you think?"

Chen Ran glanced at Raiola lightly, then stopped talking to Raiola and drank red wine by himself.

This time, Raiola fell silent again.

If someone else had said such a thing, Raiola would have dared to spit shit in his face.

But now that it was Chen Ran, he could only accept it honestly.

No way, Chen Ran's past achievements that blinded everyone gave him enough confidence and qualifications to say such things.

"Okay, Mr. Chen, I will negotiate Pogba's transfer before the European Cup starts. However, time is a bit tight, and there is no way to repeatedly use the four clubs to raise each other's prices."

"Pogba's final transfer price may be affected to some extent, and the benefits cannot be maximized."

In the end, Raiola chose to trust Chen Ran's judgment and reluctantly gave up part of the profits. There was no way, after all, Pogba's ownership was still in the hands of the Crystal Palace club, and Chen Ran was the one who made the final decision.

"Haha, Mino, don't cry with a sad face. Believe me, Pogba's performance in the European Cup is definitely not as good as you expected. By then, his transfer value will not only not rise, but may even fall. "

"You know, Pogba is still a member of the Crystal Palace club. Of course I hope to sell him for a high price. After all, no one will push the money they get out, are you right?"

"Well, Mr. Chen, you can always convince me."

Raiola smiled helplessly. He had never taken advantage of Chen Ran. It was like this before, and it is still like this now.

"Mino, just go ahead and do it, I will let Louis fully cooperate with you. I wish us a fruitful harvest, cheers."

"cheers!"

After receiving permission from Chen Ran, Raiola immediately took action, flying back and forth between Real Madrid, Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United.

The senior leaders of these clubs also know what Raiola has in mind.

However, Pogba does have great appeal. So even if the top executives of these clubs knew that Raiola was using them to raise each other's prices, they all recognized it with pinched noses, and no one took the initiative to withdraw.

After years of trials, the Crystal Palace club built by Chen Ran has become recognized as a top wealthy club through winning championship trophies.

Under Chen Ran's control, all players who play for the Crystal Palace Club are recognized as outstanding players. Even if they are not top superstars, they are at least first-class players in their position.

Moreover, the Crystal Palace Club is extremely cohesive.

Ever since Chen Ran joined the Crystal Palace club, in the past ten years, except for Ibrahimovic, no major player has left the team through transfers in their prime.

This time, the Crystal Palace club is willing to let go of Pogba, who is extremely talented and powerful, and is just 23 years old this year. How can it not make many wealthy clubs crazy?

If Chen Ran hadn't offered too high a price, I'm afraid that the door to the office of little fat boy Luis would have been squeezed in by the senior executives of major clubs.

Among the four clubs, except for Manchester United, the other three are all wealthy owners.

Especially for Manchester City, club president Kaldoun Al Mubarak even personally invited Raiola back.

You know, Raiola once served as a transfer consultant for Manchester City Club.

However, since his fellow Italian Mancini was fired by Manchester City three years ago, Raiola has also wisely resigned from his position as transfer consultant.

Now, Kaldoun Al Mubarak has once again invited him to serve as the transfer consultant for Manchester City Club. Raiola naturally knows the purpose.

However, Raiola did not refuse directly. He told Kaldoun Al Mubarak of Chen Ran's conditions very frankly.

He also said that the decision-making power rests with Chen Ran. He can only guarantee that when Manchester City's bid is high enough, he will speak for the Manchester City club.

As the four major clubs successively made their own offers for Pogba, Raiola returned to Chen Ran again.

"Mr. Chen, based on the current quotes from the four clubs, Real Madrid has the highest asking price, reaching 130 million euros."

"However, only 80 million euros are in cash, and they plan to replace the other 50 million euros with James Rodriguez."

"James Rodriguez? That Colombian midfielder?"

With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Chen Ran thought of the Colombian genius who had great success in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Now he has been reduced to a player who can offset his debt. It seems that James Rodriguez's performance in Real Madrid in the past two years has not been very good.

"Yes, Mr. Chen. This James Rodriguez still has some strength. Although he is not up to the level of a top superstar, he can still be regarded as a first-class player."

Perhaps because he was worried that Chen Ran didn't understand James Rodriguez's situation, Raiola deliberately said a few more words.

"Mino, do you think James Rodriguez can replace Modric, De Bruyne or Toni Kroos?"

"Mr. Chen, please stop making fun of me. How can James Rodriguez replace these stars?"

Raiola was choked by Chen Ran's words and couldn't answer for a long time.

Whether it is Modric, De Bruyne or Toni Kroos, they are now the core midfield players of Crystal Palace Club. How can James Rodriguez, who is about to be kicked out by Real Madrid, compare to him?

"Mino, I don't mean to make fun of you. I just want to say that the Crystal Palace club already has enough players in the midfield. It's useless to ask for James Rodriguez."

"Mr. Chen, how do you plan to deal with Real Madrid's offer?"

"Mino, tell the people at Real Madrid that I only want money, not players."

"Okay, I understand. Mr. Chen, Manchester City has offered Pogba 120 million euros, Liverpool has offered 110 million euros, and Manchester United has the lowest offer, only 105 million euros. Millions of euros.”

"One hundred and five million euros? The Glazer family is still so petty."

Chen Ran muttered secretly in his heart, and then looked at Raiola.

"Mino, please make another trip. If Real Madrid is not willing to pay all the money, then we will choose Manchester City."

"Okay, Mr. Chen, I'm going to Spain now."

With tens of millions of euros in commissions attracting him, Raiola did not feel tired at all. After getting the answer from Chen Ran, he flew to Madrid overnight.
