Entrepreneur wants Balotelli in Brazil and reveals the prejudices of the clubs at the beginning of her trajectory with Mino Raiola | international football

– Well, first of all, the pizzeria is an urban legend, right? Mino has never had a pizzeria or his family, that was a quarrel between a player who I don’t remember who was offending them. Ended up talking about it. His family comes from the restaurant area, but they’ve never owned a pizzeria. That said, I don’t even think I’m calm and Mino was explosive. I think the two of us have always had strong but different personalities. When I mentioned it, I said that Mino exploded much faster than me. He exploded thirty times a day and after five minutes I didn’t even remember him. I explode once a year and never forget. So maybe he has a lot more qualities than me in terms of this ability to overcome the explosion. But anyway, when I met him, he was already a major prosecutor. We are talking about a time when everything was very different. But Mino had already made important transfers, like Bergkamp (ex Dutch), he was already with (Pavel) Nedved (ex Czech), who soon after won the Ballon d’Or, right? So he already had his walking path and I arrived, I tried to add my touch there. Above all, being a company and not a one-generation adventure. Which is what I often see in sports agency companies. They last one or two generations of the player. It is difficult to have a long life because the same prosecutor, perhaps because he does the thing in a very focused way on him, after a while he struggles to keep up with the new generations. My company is in its fifth generation, entering the sixth.
