The next thing Dick has to solve is Ruit's salary issue.
Dortmund's high-salary policy actually has a long history. Five of the Bundesliga's highest-paid players gathered in Dortmund at that time, which ushered in a glorious period for Dortmund. As the last of those players to stay, Ruyter, with his contribution
With his status and status, he naturally received a very high salary. For the Dortmund club, he will enter the management sooner or later, so it is okay to give him more salary.
Dick actually doesn’t want to be this bad guy. However, Dortmund’s current maximum salary is only 3 million euros. If Ruyt gets more than Rivaldo, what will Rivaldo think? The most important thing for him to join Dortmund is
The main reason is for Dick, and there are conditions for getting a low salary - you have to be the highest in the team even if you get a low salary. This is not a question of money, but a question of face. Sooner or later, this question will be
to be solved.
But what Dick didn't expect was that Dortmund's management was not a free man, and he couldn't just let him do everything. The person who solved this problem was Dortmund's football director Zorc.
Zorc is also a veteran of Dortmund, and he and Ruyt are both main members of the top Dortmund team. After learning that Dick was going to cut the team's salary, he began to work for Ruyt.
In fact, Ruyter himself did not have many requirements for money. After Zorc, an old friend, chatted with him several times, he finally figured out why Zorc wanted to chat with him - originally he and Zorc
The team's contract is to be signed once a year. After all, he is already thirty-six years old, so he readily agreed to the salary reduction request and reduced his salary from 3.1 million to 1.5 million.
The mid-level level, and as a result, vice-captain Vaughns also reduced his salary to two million, giving Dick and the Dortmund club an extra surprise...
The subsequent transfers also went smoothly. Evanilson joined Parma in Serie A for 5 million euros, while Jankoler joined Everton in the Premier League for 8 million euros.
, it is no secret that Moyes needs a high center forward. Jankoler's worth is not too high, but it is not too low either.
At this point, Dortmund's net income from the transfer market this summer is 26.5 million euros, which means that Dick is very likely to receive a reward of more than 10 million euros.
And Dortmund definitely received more than this income. Through these player transfers and salary reductions, Dortmund's total salary expenses were reduced by a total of 13 million euros, plus the redemption of 5% of the Westfalenstadion.
The ownership of Eleven has also reduced their annual venue rental expenses by 8.5 million, which means that even if this year’s revenue and expenditure situation is similar to last year, Dortmund’s deficit will drop from 30 million euros to less than 1 million euros.
Ten million euros!
And this money can be earned from the European Champions Cup. The bonus income alone for completing the entire group stage will be 7 million euros, not to mention transfer fee sharing and ticket revenue. Dortmund has gone from three games last season.
Turning a single-season deficit of tens of millions of euros into a possible profit is not a dream!
After calculating Dortmund's current expenditure and expected income and expenditure, Dortmund's management was overjoyed. If it can no longer have a deficit, it will gradually reduce its debt, because although Dortmund currently owes a lot of debt, this money is
It can be paid back slowly. As long as the deficit is gradually reduced so that no new debt is added each season, it will always be paid off gradually. After all, the Bundesliga's financial balance regulations stipulate that there cannot be too many deficits each season.
In the past, Dortmund had too much debt and had to repay a lot of money every season, which led to excessive deficits. Now that they have tightened their money, the situation will naturally gradually get better.
The next step is to see if Dick can lead this team to achieve enough good results.
"I am confident that Dortmund will achieve good results within two years, but I am not sure about it next. Dortmund will still have to tighten their belts in the next few years... So I hope you will continue to strengthen youth training and try your best.
Cultivate more young players and obtain part of the profits through player transfers until the debts are paid off. Dortmund actually has a great advantage. As long as there are no debts, nothing can stop Dortmund from taking off."
This is Dick's proposal to the Dortmund management, and this proposal has been recognized by everyone. After all, football is still a sport that requires money. Dortmund can make money, but now they have to pay off a debt of nearly 100 million first.
Once the debt is paid off, your grades will naturally improve.
Dick can only make Dortmund's economic situation better under the current circumstances, and at the same time let Dortmund try its best to hit some championships, but he can't make more money. This is a long project, and ultimately it depends on
Dortmund's own efforts.
The training camp goes on like this day by day. This summer, the Bundesliga club's actions are not particularly big. Bayern has not carried out a large-scale blood exchange. The joining of Ballack is a huge success for them. Coupled with the addition of Dais
With Leverkusen joining, Bayern started a steady update in the midfield. Leverkusen, which lost three championships last season, retained Top Muller. Although they lost Ballack, they introduced Brazilian defender Juan.
Local midfielders Preuss and Bierovka, and Brazilian forward França were introduced on the front line. Although Ballack's departure has caused huge losses, it seems that Leverkusen's ability to train newcomers has been demonstrated in the past few years.
We can look forward to their restart.
Bremen's investment this season is not small. Although they lost Frings, they have introduced a number of powerful players such as Miku, Klashnic, Charisteas, Friedrich and Schultz.
, they will be one of Dortmund's main competitors on the road to winning the championship.
Dortmund's city rivals Schalke 04 and the veteran team Stuttgart do not have many signings. Now the Bundesliga teams generally have little money. This is also the reason why Bayern has been able to dominate. Their financial resources are the best in Germany.
.
Dick wants to lead Dortmund to achieve good results, and Bayern is definitely a tough opponent. They have now replaced Effenberg with Ballack, and the midfield has begun to become stronger.
For Dortmund fans, what they are looking forward to is to see the new Dortmund take off in the next German League Cup. The joining of Rivaldo makes them ecstatic. At least Bayern dug Ballack, but Rivaldo
Duoya makes Dortmund fans not afraid of each other at all!
On July 27, the appetizer for the 2002-2003 German Football League season appeared - this year's German League Cup. The German Super Cup has not been held for many years, and the League Cup is equivalent to their super cup.
cup.
The top six teams from last year will participate in the League Cup. The top two will go directly to the semi-finals. Three to six will fight against each other. Then the winner will compete with the top two for the right to the final. This kind of game is the best warm-up before the start of the season.
——Because the tradition of the Bundesliga teams is to only find amateur teams in the region to warm up before the start of the season. This is to promote the rise of the football level in the entire region. Before that, Dortmund played two warm-up games, each of which
It is a victory over the opponent by a score of more than double digits. This kind of warm-up can only be regarded as a warm-up. The real warm-up match is the League Cup match.
As the champions and runners-up last season, Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen directly entered the semi-finals. The other four teams were Bayern, Hertha Berlin, Schalke and Werder Bremen.
In the two games on July 27, Hertha Berlin suffered an upset. They defeated Bayern 1-0 and entered the semi-finals first. Then Schalke 04 also defeated Werder Bremen and also entered the semi-finals.
Their opponent is city rival Dortmund.
Seeing this result, Dortmund fans were very happy. Bayern was eliminated. Dortmund's possibility of winning the championship seems to have become much greater. At least in their eyes, Schalke 04 is now far from being comparable to Dortmund.
For example, although Dortmund let go of many players this summer, they still have strong strength.
It is a pity that in the semi-finals on August 1, Dortmund lost without temper.
Dick sent a 442 lineup in this game. Goalkeeper Lehmann, defenders Ismail and Warnes partnered as central defenders, with captains Ruyter and Dede on the wings. The midfielder sent out because Kyle was injured.
Gemmell served as the defensive midfielder, Rivaldo as the left midfielder, Frings as the right midfielder, Rosicky as the attacking midfielder, and Cavinagy and Olic as the forward partner.
This starting lineup has changed a lot compared to last season. There are six newcomers, and many of them are not playing the position they played last season. For example, Ruyt was a right midfielder last season, but now he has dropped back.
He played right back, and the players in the frontcourt basically didn't cooperate with each other. More importantly, before this, Dortmund had just finished their physical reserve work and had just started tactical drills...
The players are naturally very unfamiliar with the new tactics, and there are constant passing errors on the field. Although Schalke 04 has not changed much in the summer, this ensures a tacit understanding on the field, and they continue to block in the midfield.
Follow Dortmund's attack and then continue to attack.
The only one that performed well was Dortmund's defense, which retained three old players and the defense cooperated quite well. Ismail also showed his front-on confrontation ability and relatively flexible turning and blocking ability, plus Lehmann.
Although Schalke 04 continued to launch attacks, they were unable to break Dortmund's defense.
It's just that Dortmund's frontcourt was too chaotic. Rivaldo always unconsciously leaned towards the center, squeezing Rosicky's position. The two forwards didn't know how to respond to the midfielder's pass, and they were almost headless on the court.
Running around like flies, with the offense almost unable to create pressure on the opponent's defense, Schalke 04's offense began to become fierce. In the end, they scored a goal in the second half and eliminated the defending champion 1-0.
Dortmund!
Dortmund is not the most unlucky. Compared with Bayern, which was eliminated in the first round, their performance does not seem too bad, but Leverkusen appears to be even worse. They were beaten three times by Hertha Berlin.
Zero, defeated. So far, none of the three teams participating in the Champions League has won the League Cup, and all have lost to their opponents. In the end, it was Berliner Hertz who won Germany's first championship trophy this season.
Tower, they defeated Schalke 4-1 on penalty kicks in the final and won the German League Cup for two consecutive years!
