073 Finish the last piece
Since the Flamenco Club had already obtained the consent, Tang Feng and Monci easily met with Adriano and his agent.
Not surprising to Tang Feng and Monchi, when Adriano and his agent Guimar Renardi learned that the one who wanted to acquire Adriano was actually a Spanish Second Division team, their first reaction was that the club was joking with them.
Adriano is still a star of hope in Brazil. Although many talented stars will set their first stop in Europe to some second-rate league teams in Europe, almost no talented stars will choose to put their first stop in Europe in a second-level team.
The second-rate league and the second-tier league are a huge difference.
The competitiveness of the second-rate league may not necessarily be as large as the second-rate league of the football powerhouse, but it is at least the highest-level league, which is better to put it on. Moreover, most talented players join some top teams in the second-rate league. These teams have a great chance of winning honors in the domestic league and have the opportunity to appear in the European arena. This is obviously a better platform for geniuses who hope to log in to the wealthy families.
And these are all difficult to get in second-level league teams.
Although Jimal Linardi, who was in charge of negotiating with Tang Feng, did not say these words directly, he vaguely expressed his concerns.
Tang Feng knew that Jimal Linardi was not only Adriano's agent, but also his friend. Therefore, Jimal Linardi would not only consider his own interests like an ordinary Mr. Ten percent, but would stand from the perspective of a friend and pursue interests while ensuring Adriano's development prospects.
"I can understand the concerns of Ade and Mr. Guimar. But I think you might as well understand the situation of Betis' club. Our Real Betis has always been an ambitious team. It is not difficult to find out that we spent the first place in the world football world to buy your compatriot De Nielsen two years ago. Although De Nielsen's poor performance has been criticized a lot, in the second half of last season, he burst into strength that was completely in line with his own value. Because of this, he got the opportunity to transfer to the giant Real Madrid at a high price!"
"Last season, we will not attribute the relegation of the team to luck, but there are all reasons. Moreover, in my opinion, the relegation of the team is actually a good opportunity. An opportunity to rebuild the team! This season, the club provided the team with a budget of 15 million US dollars. Such a transfer budget may not be a big deal for the giants, but for a team in the second division, it can definitely show the team's determination to enter the first grade, right? With these transfer budgets, we have acquired a large number of talented young players. These include two of your compatriots. I personally am optimistic about their potential, just like I am optimistic about Ade's potential! I believe that such a young team will definitely bring a youth whirlwind in the Spanish Second Division next season and then quickly return to La Liga!"
"To be honest, Ade will be a very important member of my tactical system. It is not difficult to find out from the fact that I spent two-fifths of my transfer budget to acquire Ade. I know, you may think that the attention you get in a Spanish League team is not as good as playing in Brazil. In fact, I mentioned it just now. This summer, De Nielsen of our team switched to Real Madrid, which is preparing to implement a superstar policy. The main scorer Alfonso transferred to Barcelona at the same high price. This undoubtedly proves that the players in our team have always been under the attention of giant teams. This may not be very good news for our club, but it is definitely a good platform for young players who want to enter giant clubs."
"I can represent the club as you promised. In the next few seasons, if Ade accepts the invitation from the giants and he himself intends to go there, as long as the other party is willing to pay only the transfer fee that meets Ade's value, we will not stop Ade from leaving. Even if this is a painful blow to us. I said before that this season, our team is full of young geniuses like Ade. This will undoubtedly produce a certain scale effect, allowing the giants in Spain and even the entire European Union to focus on our team, and then wait until they find an excellent genius and buy it at a high price. This is a very helpless thing for us, but if it is helpful to the development of the players, we can only give up..."
Tang Feng said a long story in one breath, and even the acquisition that Lopela criticized the most became his bargaining chip to convince Adriano and his agent.
This passage is almost completely considered by Adriano from the perspective of Adriano, and also indirectly solves some of the problems that Adriano and Guimar Rinaldi may have raised.
There is no doubt that Tang Feng's words have already dispelled many of the concerns in Adriano and Guimar Rinaldi's minds.
Seeing that Adriano and Guimar Rinaldi still had hesitant expressions on their faces, Tang Feng continued: "Ad, don't you think it's very challenging to participate in the reconstruction of a team?"
Now Ade is not the star who lost himself a little because of his rapid success in Europe. He is a young man with a dream of football. He is passionate and he also has his own impulse.
Tang Feng's words made his blood boil and also aroused his impulse!
As Tang Feng said, in the view of the young Adriano, it is indeed a very challenging thing to be able to participate in the reconstruction of a team with a group of young people like him.
Adriano is also eager for such a challenge!
However, although Adriano was very eager, he did not speak directly. In this regard, he trusted Jimal Linardi around him, his agent, his friend, and his trusted elder brother.
He believed that Jimal Linardi would help him make the right choice.
Guimar Linardi also noticed the yearning in Adriano's eyes. At the same time, after hearing Tang Feng's words, he also thought that Betis seemed to be a good choice.
However, as a broker, he must pursue the best interests for himself and his employer.
"Mr. Tang, although you have drawn a very attractive blueprint to us, this is just your personal statement after all. I know that many young Brazilian players are attracted to Europe by the bright future depicted by some European clubs. But what they encounter is not the same thing. These young players do not get the opportunity, miss the great opportunity for growth, and eventually become mediocre. I don't want Ade to take this path," Jimal Linardi analyzed calmly.
"Haha, Mr. Jimal. I have to admit that you are really a very competent agent. It is so lucky for Ade to have an agent and friend like you!" Tang Feng did not answer the question directly, but praised Jimal Rinaldi first.
Tang Feng's words made both Jimal Linardi and Adriano smile happily.
"Mr. Guimar can be completely relieved about this. I have told you just now that our transfer budget this summer is 15 million US dollars, but we spent six million US dollars on Adriano in one go! Do you think we would spend such a big sum of money to buy someone on the bench? We, Betis, are indeed not short of money, but we are not too luxurious to waste like this!" Tang Feng continued with a smile on his face.
"Maybe you are just optimistic about Ade's talent and are ready to make a difference as a transfer station?" Jimal Linardi was obviously not lost in Tang Feng's praise, and he asked to the point.
Tang Feng shook his head with a smile because he felt that Jimal Linardi was a little too cautious: "As a traditional La Liga powerhouse, we only have one goal this season, that is to advance to the top! So, every penny of transfer fee we now has to be useful. We need to supplement our strength for the team, rather than speculating. Besides, even if we want to be a transfer station, this may not be a bad thing for Ade, right?"
"In this way, can you guarantee Ade's main position?" Jimal Linardi nodded after hearing this and asked another question.
"I can only say that when Ade is in good shape and has no injuries, he is definitely the main force of the team. I think you also understand that although Ade is very outstanding, he also has a minor problem of not being very stable..." Tang Feng shrugged and said.
Although Tang Feng bluntly pointed out Ade's minor problem, neither Adriano nor Guimar Linardi showed any displeasure. Because they knew that this problem did exist.
"Okay, I hope some of the promises you gave me can be reflected in the contract." After taking a look at Adriano, Jimal Rinaldi finally nodded.
"Of course, the promises I made are guaranteed by the bank, so I don't need to worry about the constraints of the contract." Seeing that Jimal Linardi finally nodded, Tang Feng, who was in a good mood, also joked.
"Well, about Ade's personal treatment..." Before confirming the signing, Jimal Linardi raised the last and most critical question.
"This is not a problem. Our club is willing to provide Ade with more than ten times his current salary. Because in our opinion, the salary provided by Flamengo to Ade is not worthy of his talent and performance!" Tang Feng said very generously. The reason why he is so generous is that Ade's annual salary in Flamengo is only 42 million US dollars!
Hearing Tang Feng's statement, Adriano and Jimar Rinaldi also showed joy.
Both of them were born in slums. For these poor Brazilian children, the best way out is to play football. Adriano is lucky. He has successfully embarked on the path of professional football and is about to land in Europe. Guimar Rinaldi is also lucky because he met Adriano's friend and became his agent. If nothing unexpected happens, he can earn no less than ordinary professional players from Adriano!
After Adriano signed the contract prepared by Monkey, the Betis Club's $15 million transfer budget this summer was completely defeated by Tang Feng.
Tang Feng also found the last piece of the team needed. Next, all he had to do was return to Sevilla and make the final preparations for the upcoming season...
