"Dortmund sent me an invitation letter? Didn't they just win the league championship? Sammer did a good job in Dortmund, so stop joking, Ivan." Dick said to one of his two assistants indifferently.
Ivan Perez said.
"I'm not kidding, boss." Perez said anxiously: "They did send us an invitation letter and hope to discuss with you about becoming the head coach of Dortmund!"
"Is it true?" Dick accepted the invitation letter from Perez with some disbelief - it clearly stated that the Dortmund Club sincerely invites Dick to discuss, hoping to invite Dick to become Dortmund's club.
Head coach, if it is not convenient for Mr. Dick to go to Germany, someone from Dortmund will come to discuss it.
"It's quite sincere." Dick nodded slightly, and then asked Marriner: "Robert, what do you think?"
"Dortmund is also a top team, and its status is not much worse than Atletico Madrid. If you feel that coaching in the Bundesliga will not reduce your reputation, then it is okay to go to the Bundesliga." Marriner said after thinking for a while.
"Well..." Dick fell into deep thought. He didn't pay much attention to the Bundesliga before, but he knew the name of Dortmund, and he also admired this team - especially the team's performance.
The yellow jersey is a very beautiful one.
If you think about it carefully, there is indeed no suitable place in La Liga, Serie A and the Premier League. In the past few days, no one has come to invite you. After all, Dick cannot be a spare tire for any giants. In this case, the Bundesliga is also a good place, at least better than Ligue 1.
Much better, Ligue 1's presence is really too weak.
Later, when Mourinho was preparing to leave Real Madrid, it was reported that Paris Saint-Germain planned to invite Mourinho to take over. There was no problem with money. Mourinho had not even entertained such an idea, just because of Ligue 1.
His sense of presence is too low. When Ibrahimovic went to Paris, he could only rely on a few stunning goals to shine. Thiago Silva, who was particularly famous before, had almost no news after he went to Ligue 1.
It's only mentioned occasionally...
Even Ancelotti's reputation gradually faded away after going to Ligue 1. It was a good place to retire, but for Dick, who was in the rising period, going to Ligue 1 was tantamount to digging his own grave.
.
The Bundesliga is still much better than the French Ligue 1 in this regard. Although going to Dortmund is not as good as going to Bayern, Bayern's position with Hitzfield is still very stable, and if he can lead Dortmund to overthrow Bayern, then he will have a greater sense of accomplishment...
…
"Isn't Dortmund's head coach Sammer? He just won the championship, how could he be fired?" Dick thought for a while and asked. He didn't pay attention to the changes in European football during this period. He was dismissed suddenly before. It gave him a lot of trouble and prevented him from preparing well for the next thing. Generally speaking, if a wealthy club wants to change their coach, they must have contacted the target very early and discussed it after a long negotiation. He get out of class ended suddenly, no wonder not many wealthy families wanted him.
"Sammer resigned on his own because he accepted an offer from the German Football Association and will work in the youth football development department of the German Football Association." Marriner immediately replied that as an assistant coach, he pays close attention to some current events.
"So that's it..." Dick nodded: "In that case, they are very sincere. I can go there... It doesn't mean that I have to coach Dortmund, don't you think?"
Marriner and Perez laughed at the same time. Now they are Dick's only team members. Marriner is Dick's assistant coach, while Perez and Tapia are his assistants. Dick has a job, and they
It must be done tastefully, otherwise even if Dick pays to support them, they will find it boring.
"Send a reply to the Dortmund club... Today is June 30th... I will arrive in Dortmund on July 2nd and then discuss specific matters."
****************************************
Dortmund, the seventh largest city in Germany, is an important industrial city in Germany. Industry and beer manufacturing are their most famous industries. They are Germany's coal and steel base, beer brewing center and land and water transportation hub.
However, recently, Dortmund's industry has also gradually changed, gradually changing from an industrial city to a city focusing on insurance, retail, logistics and micro-technology. As a result, Dortmund has begun to become more active, and now the entire
The city has a population of more than 600,000, of which nearly one-third are Dortmund fans. Westfalen, like Schalke, is the most fanatical stadium in the Bundesliga.
When Dick arrived at Dortmund with Marriner and two assistants, they were greeted by Dortmund's football director, former German international Michael Zorc.
"Hello, Mr. Dick." Zorc shook hands with Dick warmly: "I'm so glad you can come to Dortmund!"
Zorc spoke to Dick in English, and Dick smiled slightly: "I hope our next consultation will go smoothly. You know, I am a restless person."
"It is precisely because of this that we invited you... Now, only you can allow Dortmund to continue to maintain its current good results!"
As he spoke, Zorc let Dick get on the bus.
Dick smiled slightly - just keep it? That would be too underestimated of me.
However, Zorc's position is football director. This position in the Bundesliga is equivalent to the technical director of a Spanish club. He is often in charge of team transfers and other powers. Dick completely controlled this when he was at Atletico Madrid.
Power, if he wants to coach Dortmund now, he must not let his power be reduced, otherwise he will not leave Atletico Madrid - the trigger for leaving Atletico Madrid is that Xiao Hill wants to reduce his power.
?
It's just that Zorc was very enthusiastic and didn't seem to have any grudges. This made Dick murmur - would he rather give up the power in his hands, or would he just want Dick to lead the team in the game?
What? If it's the latter, then Dick can only say sorry. Coaching Dortmund hasn't made him that excited yet. If he can't even guarantee power, he would rather go to Ligue 1, which has less influence. You know, France
There are many good prospects that can be discovered by A, and he can also show his ability to cultivate young players and use the resources at hand to achieve the best results!
Besides, France seems to be full of beauties, which is where Dick shows off his talents!
He arrived at the Dortmund Club headquarters at No. 50 Stobelli Street in downtown Dortmund without saying a word. Dick got out of the car with three of his men, and then walked into the Dortmund Club under the leadership of Zorc.
's headquarters.
Marriner and two assistants were invited to the lounge to rest, while Dick and Zorc walked into the meeting room of the Dortmund Club with their heads held high. Waiting for him there were club chairman Nebom and president
Manager Mayer.
"Mr. Dick, welcome to Dortmund as a guest!" Nebom greeted him immediately - now it's not Dick asking to come to Dortmund to be the head coach, but Dortmund is eager to find a top head coach.
To lead them to achieve good results in the next Champions League. Dick's performance in the Champions League last season gave him enough confidence. If Dortmund wants to survive, they can only meet Dick's enough requirements. Even if it comes next
The economic crisis is inevitable, and they also need to gain some honors to satisfy their fans before the economic crisis comes, so that they can survive those gloomy days.
The rules of German football are very simple, make money, go bankrupt, pay off debts... If you have money, you will achieve results, if you don't have money, you can only muddle along. The Dortmund team in history that won two consecutive Bundesliga championships and the Champions League championship is not a piece of cake.
Legend has it that at that time they spent more money than Bayern, and the top five players in the entire Bundesliga were all in Dortmund - Sammer, Kohler, Paulo Sosa, Andreas Muller, Chapuy
Sartre, plus Ruyter, Heinrich, Zorc, Riedel, Ricken, Lambert, Herrrich and other top players can achieve such an outstanding honor!
Now Dortmund is about to run out of money, and based on their current team status and income comparison, they will face a deficit in one or two years at most. Having a deficit in the Bundesliga means cutting expenses and selling stars cheaply.
Until the deficit is made up, and with Dortmund's deficit, what follows may be an astronomical figure...
Last season, Dortmund's total expenditure for the entire season was 90 million euros, excluding the transfer market, while the total revenue was only 60 million euros, and their ticket revenue for a season was only 20 million euros. According to this trend, the debt is hundreds of millions.
It is not a rare thing, plus the operation of the entire club requires money, money is needed to pay players' salaries, and money is needed to maintain the venue... If the deficit cannot be made up, then the entire club will be liquidated and bankrupt, and all players will leave on free transfers.
The club started again in the regional league, the lowest level of the German professional league - just like Fiorentina later.
In history, if the club's strong men had not broken their arms and used ten years of tickets as collateral to obtain cash that could cover the deficit two years later, Dortmund would have become a team close to an amateur team like Florence, and then struggled to improve.
the climb!
After calculation, Dortmund's management found to their dismay that this situation was almost inevitable. Dortmund fans also understood this after the excitement after winning the championship. They are now looking at the next step with an almost despairing mood.
game...
If Dick agrees to join Dortmund, then in the next year or two, they may be able to enjoy themselves for a while before the fate of bankruptcy is about to arrive.
This is why Dortmund's management thought of inviting Dick. Dick is the most legendary head coach in Europe in the past two seasons. His ability to win championships has been unanimously recognized by everyone, even though everyone knows that he spends money.
He spends a lot of money, but he is a coach who can spend money well worth his money!
"If Dick agrees to coach Dortmund, even if it means selling off the pot, I will have to provide him with enough transfer funds. As for power and so on, I will give it all to him. At least in these two years, I will let Dortmund fans enjoy it again.
To that happy time in 1997!" Nebom thought in his heart.
This is also the reason why Zorc is so enthusiastic about Dick - for the last two years, it is no big deal to temporarily give up power...
