Ferguson, who reversed his decision to retire, led Manchester United to regain the Premier League title.
Ferguson told everyone it was not time to retire yet.
However, the news that Manchester United won the Premier League championship only remained in the newspapers for less than half a month, because more explosive news suddenly hit the English football world.
Of course, it was not just a raid on English football, it should be said that it was a raid on the entire European football world.
A mysterious Russian tycoon has arrived in English football.
Before the rest of the English football world could react, this mysterious Russian tycoon had already bought Chelsea. Bates, a big hooligan in English football, just sold the club to a Russian guy.
The Russians have arrived in English football.
All the media is paying attention to this mysterious Russian rich man.
Although the specific amount has not been announced yet.
But for such a big acquisition, a lot of news came out. The Russian tycoon spent 160 million pounds to buy Chelsea. Of course, this does not include Chelsea's debt of more than 90 million pounds.
In other words, the Russian tycoon spent more than 250 million pounds to buy Chelsea.
And according to everyone, the Russian tycoon paid 160 million pounds directly. Chelsea's debt in the bank was also settled directly by the Russian tycoon.
Everyone is curious.
Which Russian tycoon is so arrogant?
Just throw away 250 million pounds. In European football, there are many rich people with such wealth. There are also many rich people with a net worth of more than one billion pounds. But there are absolutely few people who have the ability to throw away so much cash at once.
indivual.
Like Lazio.
They bought Mendieta from Valencia. In fact, they paid in installments. It is said that Mendieta has not paid all the money up to now. Not even half.
Because Lazio has no money.
Recently there has been news that because they cannot pay off Mendieta's money, they are preparing to use players to pay off the debt.
And even for rich people like Berlusconi and Moratti, it is not easy for them to come up with 250 million pounds in cash at once. Because it takes time for them to raise so much cash.
But this Russian guy is really rich.
Soon the media announced the name of this mysterious Russian tycoon.
Roman Abramovich.
The names of Russian tycoons began to appear frequently in newspapers and periodicals.
36-year-old Russian tycoon.
Although he is not as rich as the legend, with a net worth of more than 10 billion pounds, he is still the world's richest man with a net worth of 7.5 billion pounds. On the Forbes list, he ranks among the top 30 richest people. If it were placed in England, Abramovich
Qi is the richest man.
The Times has a comprehensive introduction to Abramovich.
Although Abu came very mysteriously.
But if you want to find out, there is nothing you can't find out.
Su Yun, the Chelsea head coach, whose contract expires in two months, has not yet met the new boss.
All I know about the new boss is from newspapers and other channels.
It's the same as what Su Yun thought.
Much of Abramovich's fortune was shady.
This man made his fortune through smuggling. He and his stewardess girlfriend did smuggling and earned their first capital. However, many people still suspect that he colluded with people from the oil company to steal oil. This is the original capital.
Gathered.
Then, relying on the chaotic situation after the collapse of the Soviet Union, he bought the Sibneft Company for less than 10% of its actual value.
It is a completely naked embezzlement of national assets.
Of course, this is basically the case for the Russian oligarchs who made their fortune at this time.
It was the purchase of Sibneft that made Abramovich an oil oligarch in Russia. Since then, his assets have increased exponentially, and in just a few years, he has become one of the richest people in the world.
Many media are analyzing it.
Analyze Abramovich’s ultimate goal of taking over Chelsea.
There are various opinions.
Some people say that Abramovich is an avid football fan and decided to buy the football club because he watched the Champions League match between Real Madrid and Manchester United. He wanted to build a giant football club.
There is some market for this statement, but most people still sneer at it.
Some people also said that Abramovich bought Chelsea to launder money.
Because many of Abramovich's assets are shady. Many people say that Abramovich used Chelsea to launder money.
Of course, more theories indicate that Abu was seeking refuge.
These oligarchs who made a huge fortune when the former Soviet Union was disintegrating have recently been held accountable by the Russian government. Especially after Putin became president, he began to slowly liquidate these Russian oligarchs.
Many Russian tycoons have been jailed.
Of course, Putin is not holding them accountable solely because they have embezzled national property. The main reason is that these oligarchs who control the lifeline of Russia's economy are not satisfied with their economic status.
They also want to influence Russian politics like those consortiums.
Of course, this was not allowed by the strong Putin. So he began to crack down on these Russian oligarchs.
The boss who led Abu to make his fortune has now fled Russia.
Therefore, many people believe that Abu was afraid of Putin's liquidation, so he began to transfer assets.
Anyway, there are many different opinions.
But these are of little use to Su Yun. Su Yun has no in-depth thoughts on the purpose of Abramovich coming to Chelsea. Maybe it is not one or two reasons.
It may be that Abu wants to transfer assets, launder money, or seek refuge.
There are various reasons.
But these have nothing to do with Su Yun.
Su Yun is just a head coach.
Su Yun's current thinking is very simple. What does the new Chelsea boss mean?
…………
At the end of the season, Su Yun did not leave England.
Because Su Yun also needs to observe.
It has been some time since the new boss joined Chelsea, but he has never approached Su Yun.
The new boss is still very low-key.
Until now, he has not been interviewed by any media. Now everyone's impression of Abu is only from those materials. No one knows what he thinks.
Because Abu has never appeared in front of everyone.
At this time, the famous English agent Zahavi accepted an interview.
Zahavi is a super agent in England and Europe.
He has many good players.
His most beautiful move was the transfer of Ferdinand. Zahavi was Rio Ferdinand's agent, and he encouraged Ferdinand to transfer continuously within half a year.
First, he transferred from West Ham United to Leeds United for 18 million pounds. After half a season, Ferdinand transferred from Leeds United to Manchester United for 23 million pounds.
Only half a year.
From two transfers within half a year, Zahavi easily earned a transfer share of 4 million pounds.
This does not include the rapid increase in Ferdinand's salary.
This is Zahavi.
In English football, Zahavi is an agent as famous as Arsenal's real agent Jerome Anderson.
Of course, this is just a small fuss on his part.
This guy was the one who set the stage for Abramovich to buy Chelsea this time. Now that the transaction has been successful, it is a big deal worth over 100 million pounds. No one can say how much commission he got out of it.
But everyone knows that Zahavi must have received a huge commission that no one can imagine.
This is Zahavi’s first appearance in front of the media after the successful completion of Chelsea’s acquisition.
Zahavi clearly stated the Russian's ambitions: "He wants to turn Chelsea into the king of Europe - run like Manchester United, more successful than Real Madrid, and money is not an issue."
The previous words were ignored by people.
After all, Real Madrid and Manchester United are the results of a century of operation. It is impossible for Chelsea to compare with these two clubs without decades of glory.
But what happened next shocked the entire European football world.
Money is not an issue.
One sentence made everyone in European football nervous.
This mysterious Russian tycoon will not be another Florentino.
Florentino has shocked the whole of Europe in the past few years. Starting from the purchase of Figo, Zidane and Ronaldo, one after another superstars came to Real Madrid.
Now the Russian tycoon has the guts to say money is not an issue.
What's the meaning?
A Florentino has completely disrupted the order of European football. Not only has many small clubs been frightened, but even the European giants are somewhat afraid of Florentino.
Will Abramovich also disrupt the order of football?
Florentino is using Real Madrid's huge influence to disrupt the order of European football. This Russian guy doesn't have that kind of influence. But this Russian guy has rubles.
Using the ruble to clear the way can also disrupt the European football market.
This is what people pay most attention to.
When everyone was speculating about the mysterious Russian rich man, Paul Smith, the current CEO of Chelsea, said arrogantly: "If Pele can still transfer now, we can spend 100 million to buy Pele. If we We think Ruud is worth 60 million, so we can spend 60 million to buy it."
As soon as this sentence came out, it was immediately criticized by the European media.
Chelsea is crazy.
Take out 100 million.
Buy Bailey?
60 million for Van Nistelrooy?
What exactly does Chelsea want to do?
Seeing Chelsea's current situation, many people in European football thought of one person.
It was Cragnotti, the former Lazio boss.
Cragnotti knew how to spend money in the transfer market back then. He bought players like Crespo, Vieri, Pele, Salas and Mendieta, all of whom were worth very high prices. Cragnotti's money offensive was at that time. Even Juventus, Milan and Inter Milan, the three northern powers, have to stay away.
Because today's commercial football is ultimately a war of money.
When everyone heard Paul Smith's words, they all felt like the wolf was coming.
Cragnotti's assets pale into insignificance compared to Abramovich. If Abramovich wants to start a money war, he will definitely surpass Cragnotti.
Of course there were also voices of ridicule.
Some media ridiculed Russian tycoons.
A football layman thinks he has some bad money and wants to play in the football circle. It’s so funny.
Many media even said that "money cannot bring championships."
Su Yun was helpless towards these things.
He, the head coach, hasn't said anything yet, and even Su Yun, the head coach, doesn't know where his future lies.
Buy players?
No matter what the new boss thinks. He just wants to buy Zidane and Ronaldo from Chelsea. If he doesn't go through Su Yun, then Su Yun will definitely not agree.
Of course, Su Yun still doesn’t know whether he will be Chelsea’s head coach this season.
The arrival of a new boss immediately disrupted Su Yun's steps.
Su Yun didn't know what to do now.
But Su Yun has been waiting.
Waiting for the new boss.
It's not that Su Yun doesn't have a new home. But Su Yun is reluctant to part with the Chelsea that he has built now.
