As a major agent, List will pay attention to the development of European football in every transfer period. Originally, the observation period of the new policy will begin in 2009, so List is already prepared to accept a somewhat sluggish transfer market.
But it's completely different from what List thought. There is still no shortage of rich people in European football, such as Real Madrid, Juventus, and now it's Barcelona's turn. Barcelona won the Triple Crown last season and achieved very good results, so their income is also very high.
High. At that time in 2007, Barcelona's revenue was less than 300 million euros. But last season, Barcelona's revenue suddenly increased to 360 million euros.
Of course it cannot be compared with Real Madrid, but for Barcelona themselves, their income has increased a lot. But even if their income has increased, they did not expect Barcelona to be so generous.
"He's not crazy, he knows better than anyone else."
Rosell shook his head. In the summer of 2010, the new Barcelona presidential election was about to begin. Rosell had already publicly stated that he would participate in this election. And when Rosell expressed his intention to compete for the new chairman of Barcelona, Rosell jumped
Becoming the biggest favorite. When Laporta was in office, he had the second and third dreams. In terms of results, he was better than any previous president of Barcelona.
Many fans like Laporta because they only want to see Barcelona's outstanding performance. But many senior members of Barcelona dislike Laporta very much. With Barcelona's outstanding results this season, there are still many members
Asked Laporta to dismiss get out of class. This must be the first time in the history of Barcelona. The top management is in constant turmoil, but the team's performance is getting better and better. Now Russell has also jumped out. The future of Barcelona's top management is more
It's confusing.
Russell is a real powerhouse. After he announced his candidacy this time, World Sports News has already reported the list of Russell's campaign team. It is a very luxurious list.
A total of ten names were announced, and five of them were senior executives of Barcelona. That is to say, after the relationship between Russell and Laporta broke down, he followed Russell and left the senior management of Barcelona. Without exception, they were all Ronaldo.
A close confidant of Russell, this time he joined Russell's campaign team again.
These people were senior leaders of Barcelona during the Meng II period and had great prestige in Barcelona. At that time, they held almost half of the important positions in Barcelona. Now that they have come back, Rosell's reputation has greatly increased.
In addition to the five of them, the remaining five people are either rich or noble. Ponte, the chairman of BES Group, the grandson of the former vice chairman of Barcelona. Casaus, a business celebrity, Virubi who is engaged in the financial industry, and Aro, the general manager of Dorna Group
Yo and Bordas, an entrepreneur engaged in catering, are currently wealthy people from all walks of life in Catalonia.
Don't underestimate that this is just the club's presidential election. He also needs very considerable campaign funds. And these people can completely guarantee that Russell will not be short of money. Such a scale can show Russell's strength.
Lister and Russell have a very good relationship, but Lister has never thought about fighting for Russell. The more he gets to the point where Lister is, the more careful Lister has to be. Although Lister really hopes that Russell will regain his position.
Barcelona, but Riste will never really interfere between Laporta and Rosell.
"Rister, you don't understand. Joan and I are different. When I become the president of Barcelona, apart from my love for Barcelona, I am doing it for money."
Russell didn't hide anything. He bluntly said that he was just for money. Russell himself didn't have much assets, so he relied on kickbacks from various commercial games. He also had the idea of making money when he became the chairman of Barcelona. Russell continued:
"But Juan's ambition is not in Barcelona. His ambition is next year's Catalan election. He wants to use Barcelona to increase his reputation. Therefore, he will not care about Barcelona's economy, nor UEFA.
Financial Fair Play policy. All he needs to do is ensure that Barcelona's performance is outstanding and that he can succeed in the Catalan elections next year."
List nodded. Indeed, Rosell's statement made List understandable. Real Madrid can spend money because Real Madrid can make money. Moreover, Real Madrid has purged many players in order to sign players this summer. But Barcelona's income
It is not as good as Real Madrid, its profits are not as good as Real Madrid's, and even its cleaning efforts are not as good as Real Madrid's. But it spends more money than Real Madrid.
Barcelona first introduced a little-known central defender Zygrinski. Although his performance at Shakhtar Donetsk was okay, his price was not too outrageous. Barcelona actually spent 25 million euros to introduce him.
Riester knew that Zygrinski was a big trap, a huge parallel import. He had never played in Barcelona and was purged by Barcelona a year later.
Of course, player transfer fees are somewhat abnormal now, and it is understandable to pay 25 million euros to introduce him. But the subsequent transfer shocked the entire European football world. Because Barcelona spent 67 million euros to introduce Inter Milan's Ibrahimovic.
Odd. This is a big deal.
"Football? Politics?"
Lister shook his head. It should be said that it is not that football and politics are connected, but that the current voting system makes many people choose to use football, the world's number one sport, to enter the political circle in a roundabout way. In Europe, people who enter the political arena in this way can be seen everywhere.
.Laporta actually has this idea too.
Riester even thought about Messi's contract renewal. It seems that Laporta was able to agree so happily for other reasons. He should be unwilling to have anything happen to Barcelona at this time, hoping that it would not affect his participation in the Canadian Football Association next year.
General elections in Catalonia.
But this has nothing to do with Liszt. Liszt got the best conditions anyway. Liszt won a top-level contract for Messi with an annual salary of 13 million euros after tax, and Messi also became a world football player.
The highest-paid player in the world. Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo also renewed his contract with Real Madrid, but what he received was only 11.6 million euros after tax, which was much lower than Messi. Of course, Riester signed with Barcelona.
Barcelona also needs to pay Riester a commission of 4 million euros and Messi a signing bonus of 4 million euros.
And because Messi signed a five-year contract with Barcelona this time, the total contract value is 84 million euros. Barcelona also needs to pay Riester a one-time salary share of 4.2 million euros. After signing this
After a big deal, Lister received an income of more than 8 million euros. Messi is indeed Lister's biggest treasure trove.
"I am very dissatisfied with Juan's reckless signings. If I were the chairman, I would have to check Barcelona's accounts. If Barcelona continues like this, its finances will collapse."
Russell commented disdainfully on Laporta. Riester smiled slightly and did not comment. Because Riester knew that this was a bad relationship between Russell and Laporta, Riester had no intention of getting involved.
But Rosell is right. Barcelona under Laporta's management has performed very well, but its finances are in a mess. Although Barcelona has no crisis of bankruptcy because of its special status in Catalonia. But if Barcelona continues like this
, the finances might really collapse. But for Russell’s actions in history, List felt that it was too much.
Although many of Laporta's transfers are fishy and the finances are also ridiculously poor. But Rosell grasped this and pursued Laporta relentlessly, which had a very bad impact on Barcelona. Far less than Florenti.
Nuo gently raised his hand to let Calderon go.
"It seems that the transfer market is still not calm this summer."
…………
Many clubs originally wanted to keep a low profile this summer, but it was precisely because of big-money transfers like Real Madrid and Barcelona that they couldn't keep a low profile.
Just like Chelsea. Originally they didn't want to buy anyone this season. But Real Madrid came over and directly poached Essien and Carvalho. Chelsea got 50 million euros. How could they not spend it. Chelsea's financial situation is better than that of Manchester City.
The upstarts are much better. They originally had money to sign players, but now they are selling these players. It must be replenished.
The biggest problem is of course Inter Milan. Inter Milan used to be honest, but now they have taken away their main center and received a huge sum of 67 million euros. Of course, they are even richer.
Benitez is ambitious. He has been a coach for fourteen years and won a top league championship for the first time. That is, he won the Serie A championship with the current Inter Milan. But the purpose of Moratti inviting him
It's very simple. They don't ask you to come here to win the league championship, but they ask you to come here to win the Champions League championship. Therefore, Moratti originally had the idea of introducing players this summer. Although it only cost about 30 million euros, Ibrahi
After Mović was sold for such a high price, Inter Milan immediately became rich.
Benitez likes his direct players very much. After coming to Inter Milan, he brought Maicon. This time he once again turned to his old club, Liverpool.
Liverpool's two American owners have been preparing to sell the club. However, Liverpool's performance last season was poor and they did not even get the top four. Therefore, some players in the Liverpool team wanted to leave. It happened that Benitez took action.
.
Benitez's first target is a striker. After all, Ibrahimovic has left and he needs to find a player to replace him. Benitez chose the current main center of Liverpool, Eto'o. Eto'o and others
His performance last year was still very good. However, his value is completely incomparable with Ibrahimovic. Inter Milan finally spent 26 million euros to introduce Eto'o.
Then Benitez set his sights on Liverpool's Mascherano. Mascherano has been the top defensive midfielder in Liverpool in recent years, on par with Chelsea's Essien. And Mascherano
Scherano is only 25 years old now, which is considered to be the peak age of the defensive midfielder.
In the current Inter Milan midfield, Cambiaso and Sneijder are the absolute main players. The other one is Zanetti, but Benitez is not very satisfied with Inter Milan's left wing, especially because he is worried about Chivu guarding the left wing. Therefore,
Last season, Benitez always used Zanetti to guard the left wing, and there was a lack of someone in the midfielder position. This time, Benitez once again introduced his direct players.
In the end, Inter Milan spent 24 million euros to introduce Liverpool's Mascherano. Speaking of Eto'o and Mascherano, Inter Milan bought it cheap. If it is the normal price
, the two people combined will definitely exceed 60 million euros.
But just because Liverpool is in turmoil now and will not be able to get a place in the Champions League next season, the players' minds are in turmoil. Otherwise, it would be impossible to sell their two generals so cheaply. However, Inter Milan has been making cheap money every day in the past two years.
I'm used to it. They took advantage of Real Madrid last season, and they took advantage of Liverpool this season. Inter Milan only spent about 50 million euros to introduce two world-class players.
Then Inter Milan spent a low price of 8 million euros from Bayern Munich to introduce Lucio. Mainly because Bayern needed to rebuild now, so they started a big purge. Lucio was the first player to be purged. Inter Milan chose
arrive.
Inter Milan began to invest because they had money. Chelsea had never thought about investing heavily, but since they sold players, they started to sign players. After Essien left, Chelsea introduced PSV Eindhoven for 12 million euros.
Ramirez.
Of course, List also received an invitation from Chelsea and an invitation from Pini Zahavi. (To be continued...)
