Therefore, Baia offered a transfer price of one pound for the Banat Football Club, but required the buyer to commit to investing no less than one million pounds per year on the basis of assuming all debts, and to guarantee not to transfer the club within five years.
Transfer again.
Moreover, in order to prevent the club from being ignored, Baia linked the transfer of its playground to the transfer of the club.
As a result, the transfer of the amusement park, which was originally relatively easy to close, has now reached a deadlock.
There are many football clubs, large and small, in Britten, and many of them have a history of more than a century.
Unless it is a hometown team, few people will pay attention to a football club that has been struggling in the bottom league for many years, not to mention that it still has a lot of responsibilities.
The players are not aware of these things, so they are happily enjoying their vacation and waiting for the pre-season training that will start soon.
Of course Wei San was aware of this matter, but unfortunately he had no choice but to wait anxiously for the final result.
"Sun, didn't you say you wanted to invest in a football club in the future? Are you interested in getting involved now?" David asked with a smile.
"Me?" Sun Dahai didn't expect him to ask such a question, so he was stunned.
Sun Dahai didn't tell anyone else that he wanted to buy a football club. Only David knew about it.
When David was the manager of Youte Investment Company and was working on the Sanya Yalang Bay Terminal project, he discovered that there was a future holding company among the shareholders, but Sun Dahai's name was not among the individual shareholders.
He then asked Sun Dahai why he didn't invest in it and go yachting with everyone in the future.
Sun Dahai's answer at the time was: He was not very interested in yachts, so he only regarded it as a business. If the company had not had a high demand for the cargo function of Linlang Bay, then even the future holding company would not have participated in this project.
Here comes the investment.
However, if there is an opportunity in the future, he can invest in a football club in Europe. If David has information in this regard, he can tell him.
At that time, David remembered Sun Dahai's words. Now that Wei San had mentioned the transfer of the club, David brought it up.
"Dahai, you want to buy a football club? This is a losing business!" Old William was also very surprised.
"I had this plan, but now..." Sun Dahai said.
From the early 1980s to the early 1990s, it was the most difficult time for Britten's football clubs to operate, with many clubs going bankrupt every year.
Therefore, the Breiten Football Association decided to change the status quo. Starting from the 1992-1993 season, the Breiten Football Association was established to organize the Breiten Football Super League.
Buenos Aires has made major changes in many aspects such as the distribution of television broadcast revenue, which has fundamentally improved the income situation of each club.
When the club has money, it will naturally increase investment, increase player salaries, and vigorously introduce the best players and coaches from all over the world to greatly increase the excitement and intensity of the game, making the Britten Football Super League surpass
Serie A became the world's largest football league.
Now is the darkest period before dawn, and Sun Dahai had never thought of entering at this time before.
He originally planned to wait for the start of the Britten Football Super League before buying a team in the middle and lower reaches of the Bundesliga. He couldn't let the Russian oligarchs and the Middle Eastern big dogs take the lead.
However, David's joking suggestion now reminded Sun Dahai, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The current Breiten Football League C is equivalent to the third domestic league in Breiten. There are still four seasons left before the 1992-93 season, the first year of the Breiten Super League.
If Sun Dahai starts now and appropriately increases his investment, it will not be a big problem for the team to be promoted to the second league in four seasons. It is also very possible to be promoted to the first league, which is the future Super League.
Moreover, due to the sluggish income situation at this time, not only Britten's football club, but also most of the European football clubs were in economic slump. The players' worth and transfer fees were not too high, which helped Sun Dahai poach people everywhere.
.
However, the Boseman Act had not been enacted at this time, and Britten's team had restrictions on foreign players. Each team could not have more than three foreign players. This gave Sun Dahai, who was so poor that he only had money, a headache.
But the biggest advantage of entering now is that it is easier to be accepted by fans. As a foreign company, even a Xiangjiang company is still an outsider in the eyes of Britten fans, but it is only slightly better than companies from other countries.
It would be much easier for Heung Kong Enterprises to acquire an insolvent third-division team in Britten than to acquire a Super League team a few years later.
Haven't you seen the American Glazer family's acquisition of Manchester United in the previous life? How much effort did it take?
Sun Dahai thought about it for a while and said to Wei San: "Let's go to the Future Building tomorrow to find me and talk to me in detail about various situations related to the club. It won't be too late to make plans then."
After saying that, Sun Dahai looked at David and thought: No matter what, if a Chinese becomes the owner of Britten Football Club, it will cause some criticism, so he might as well bring David in.
Sun Dahai said to David with a bad smile: "David, you are going to make a small fortune soon. How about spending some money and playing football with me. It won't be any worse than playing yacht."
David was immediately dumbfounded.
He knew that the "little fortune" Sun Dahai mentioned was the profit from the Bank of Gaul stock.
This is not a "small" fortune. At today's price, 1% (actually 0.99%) of Bank of Gaul's shares has a par value of US$350 million.
Even if according to the repurchase terms in the white knight agreement, Leon Group only offers 80% to repurchase, and after deducting David's purchase cost, his net profit from this investment will reach about US$200 million.
He already had a small plan to spend money and prepare to customize a yacht of his own. The top Dutch yacht customizer Feadship launched a medium-sized yacht Sea Jewel in 1987, which can accommodate ten passengers.
Once the superyacht was launched, David liked it very much.
However, if he wanted to customize such a yacht, the total expenses would cost US$40 to 50 million, so David was reluctant to place an order.
Now that he had a sudden windfall, the only thing David could think of was to immediately customize a Sea Jewel for himself. As for how to use the remaining money, he really had no plans.
When Sun Dahai said it, David was a little tempted. In their small circle, Sun Dahai's saying that he could make people prosperous had become miraculous.
Although David didn't fully believe it, since Sun Dahai had sent out the invitation, the money was unplanned anyway, so it would be harmless for him to invest 30 to 50 million U.S. dollars as if they were just having fun together.
