Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 154: For The Future

After the brief introduction, Rizaldi Fatah now has an agent and manager who will help him in various things, especially for his career as a footballer. Indeed that is what must be owned by a footballer, especially Rizaldi has a target to be a great and influential footballer, he must think much more ahead.

Andra Almeida, a young woman of almost 20 years old who will become an agent of Rizaldi Fatah later. Blond woman as boat did not have experience about being a football agent, but because of the confidence given by his cousin Coach Giovanni finally Andra Almeida tried it with all his heart.

His first assignment as an agent was to help Rizaldi Fatah to get a mutual agreement with a prospective team that could be the next port of Rizaldi Fatah, namely MK Dons. For that, Andra and Rizaldi will have a meeting schedule with the coach who is currently coaching MK Dons. His name is Thomas Andrews who managed to bring MK Dons won the EFL Cup last season.

Thomas Andrews was willing to fly all the way from England to Indonesia to have this meeting, the call from talent agency MK Dons and a little see the ability Rizaldi through the video sent by the agent made Thomas Andrews very interested in bringing Rizaldi to England and he was willing to do this whatever payment.

Since today was the day of the meeting, Rizaldi immediately got ready after finishing his daily practice. On the way back home, Rizaldi got a message from Andra Almeida through a chat application that is now viral, SecretChat. The message read 'the address code for this meeting is semi-formal, so how much better you wear a neat shirt!'

Rizaldi immediately remembered that in his memory, he resumed his journey but only a few inches from where he had stood, the sound of the notification was heard again and Rizaldi again checked it. This time not the message as before, Andra just sent a sticker message with a funny cat that raised his thumb. Rizaldi immediately smiled slightly looking at the sticker. "He's a little different than Coach!" rizaldi said instantly.

"Are you ready for a new path, Master?" Boro-555 suddenly makes a sound inside the head of Rizaldi Fatah.

"Yes that's how Boro is, life always goes forward and I don't want to fall because I can't keep the flow going"

"A good word Master, let's increase the fighting spirit to achieve the dream of the master" said Boro-555 again.

Rizaldi smiled then suddenly clenched his hands and punched the sky who had never looked for trouble with him at all. As this was done by Rizaldi looking strange, people started to stare at Rizaldi so sharply while wondering what the matter was exactly this child, but Rizaldi did not care about all those gazes. Rizaldi's mind was only fixed with the meeting that would last less than 2 hours. Rizaldi rushed to get home, ran to his house and considered it a regular exercise that he often did a long time ago.

Until Rizaldi's house just took a shower and get ready to leave, Rizaldi wore a maroon-colored shirt one of his favorite colors. His hair was combed neatly and once out of his room, Keisya who saw the look of his charming brother was immediately suspicious and asked where his brother was going.

"Abang wants to go for a while, there's an important meeting. Keisya take care of the house first yes later the return of the bright moon-flavored brother chocolate and special nuts" said Rizaldi trying to explain briefly to his sister.

Keisya looked more and more at the brother, but a few moments later he immediately returned to focus on his own activities. "Promise your bang, watch out for lying brother Keisya!" Keisya threatened with a pencil in his hand.

"Promise promise" Rizaldi replied a little nervously seeing the sharp pencil pointing at him.

Suddenly the sound of knocking on the door rang out, Rizaldi quickly went to see who had come to his house, as well as running away from Keisya who was staring at him like a big-time criminal. Keisya followed behind unnoticed by Rizaldi, as Rizaldi opened the door, Keisya was immediately surprised to see a young and beautiful woman standing right in front of his house.

Rizaldi was as surprised as Keisya was, he had not expected that Andra would come to pick him up. But even more surprising is, Rizaldi was confused by how Andra knew Rizaldi's house when he was only a few days in Mining.

Andra could read the confusion that hit Rizaldi just from the look of his face, Andra said. "What is the data of players in the office if it is not used?" Rizaldi was silent at once. "Let's go up quickly, let's go now"

Rizaldi was confused what the ride was pinned for, apparently Andra brought his own car here and his car was not a playful car. It was an Italian manufacturer's output car that had a prancing horse emblem in black. Especially if it is not a Ferrari whose price is not a joke. And what is carried by Andra is now a Ferrari California, which is one of the types of Ferrari cars.

"Wait what else let's go up!" andra said that he saw Rizaldi still standing with his mouth wide open near the car door.

Rizaldi also gulped his saliva before entering the car that had an open hood, the red color of the car as if splitting the streets of the city of Pengambangan was relaxed that night. Andra's car really became an object that made everyone unable to turn their gazes, for people in Mining who rarely saw a good car as good as Ferrari, it will be a consolation for their eyes.

At the red light, Andra tried to find a topic of conversation. He was a little uncomfortable with the cold that had enveloped Rizaldi ever since. "Rizaldi, when I went to your house earlier, I had seen there was a place that many people visited and on average many young people there like high school children. Do you know that Rizaldi?"

"THE MCC? Is it like UFC? MMA?" andra said, not wanting to let the atmosphere return like before.

"Not UFC or MMA, more to Professional Wrestling but more martial arts movements such as MMA, let's just say the combination of MMA and professional wrestling finally created Fusion Fighting. I'll take you there sometime so you can better understand what I mean" Rizaldi's answer confused Andra a little but because Rizaldi promised that, Andra no longer questioned it.

A few minutes passed in the streets until they finally reached their destination. They have an appointment at a 5-star hotel in Banjarmasin, the Galaxy Royale Palace hotel. They both went to the receptionist and told the receptionist that they had an appointment with someone named Thomas Andrews.

Without asking much more, with high-level service the receptionist told the other waiter to take Andra and Rizaldi to go to meet the figure named Thomas Andrews, it turned out that Thomas Andrews was already waiting for the arrival of the two of them at the hotel restaurant.

"Ah finally you come, please sit down first" Thomas said when he saw the arrival of Andra and also Rizaldi.

"It's nice to meet you, sir. This is Rizaldi Fatah and I'm Andra Almeida the player's agent" Andra shone in Thomas's hand before sitting down, as did Rizaldi who followed Andra's movements to make no mistake.

Thomas smiled slightly, he started to be happy because Andra was not an ordinary agent who did not know how ethical in meeting someone. At least for Thomas, Andra was not an amateur who was desperate to plunge himself into this negotiating world. "How do we start our main discussion?" tanya Thomas was immediately welcomed by Andra.

Thomas Andrews told Rizaldi and Andra that it was true that he and MK Dons had an interest in Rizaldi Fatah, especially after seeing some videos of Rizaldi's full appearance. However they will not include Rizaldi's name as a major player in the near future range, they just want to make Rizaldi to be a full player of long-term prospects for the time being.

"If you agree to this role, can we continue with the discussion of the contract?" said Thomas Andrews.

Rizaldi was given time to think first, but certainly not much time that he had. Rizaldi is not expected to give the answer until tomorrow morning, so all the answers that will be thrown by him could just make his career die. Rizaldi stared at Andra, and Andra just smiled. But Rizaldi was not angry, he understood the meaning of Andra's smile.

"Are you sure you're just making Rizaldi your long-term project prospect Mr Thomas? I'm sure you've watched a lot of footage from Rizaldi's game, right? said Andra was a little fishing Thomas.

Thomas laughs. He did admit his expertise Rizaldi, but he himself has not seen it directly, only from the videos sent by the talent scout only. But with that alone has become a strong foundation, but Thomas is still not fully convinced.

"Sorry young lady, this player is still very young. He's 16, right? The FA has a very clear set of rules for this age. So for the first time we just want to make Rizaldi part of a high-prospect player, the maximum we can only give a small guarantee to be a starter and rotation. Depends on how the game is"

"Then it's okay, we don't have a problem with that" Andra said with a slight smile, at least better than the previous offer.

After dealing with the problem of the role of Rizaldi, then they discussed the contract and salary. MK Dons will sign Rizaldi for 5 years with the status of a young player from the academy MK Dons, and of course Rizaldi also get a salary.

With a little tug-of-war, Rizaldi ended up getting a decent salary but it didn't mean much either. Because of the status of youth players of the academy, Rizaldi should not get a salary that is so high at the beginning of the year, for reasons of salary cap in EFL League One and EFL League Two. Rizaldi earns 300 euros per week, or if it is awarded the equivalent of 4 million.

They finally agreed and the deal was ended with a greeting by Thomas Andrews with representatives from Rizaldi Fatah. But before they say goodbye, Rizaldi suddenly makes a sound. "But can I play for Cananga FC Mining until the end of the season? I want to give my best for my current team before leaving?

Of course this question surprised all parties, not least Andra himself. Thomas Andrews replied. "No problem, you still have a few years if you want to play in the best league in the world, the Premier League!" thomas Andrews said, then he left the hotel restaurant to return to his room of order.

Rizaldi fell silent, he sat back down after facing the most thrilling thing in his life so far. "I still can't believe what I'm going through right now" Rizaldi said as he stared at the ceiling of the hotel, which was like a night sky filled with stars.
