With the release of Bayern's financial report, the entire German football world and even European football world are abuzz.
It was only at this time that many people truly realized the value of Su Dong.
On the court, attacking for the team is only part of Su Dong's value. As a professional player, his commercial value and global influence off the court are no less than his performance on the court.
Far away in Manchester, Mubarak, Soriano, Begiristain and Guardiola were discussing the transfer progress of the new season, but the topic was involuntarily attracted to this report from Germany.
"If Su Dong can come to Manchester City, our global strategy will proceed more smoothly and with greater certainty." Soriano said with emotion.
As a financial person, Soriano felt envious from the bottom of his heart when he saw Bayern's financial report.
Whether in terms of revenue, cash flow, or debt, Bayern can be regarded as a model for European professional clubs.
What's even more frightening is that this team is still very strong.
When Su Dong joined, Bayern was already not weak and had a strong financial foundation. Otherwise, they would not have spent a lot of money to bring Su Dong in. But now, it has doubled. Today's Bayern is rich and wealthy.
"Hoeness is absolutely right. If Bayern wants, they have the financial resources to bring in any superstar in the world, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. They have a cash flow of more than 100 million euros. My God, Germany
What is the structure of the human brain, and why do you save so much money?" Soriano felt very puzzled.
With so much money, you should find a way to spend it or invest it.
"It may be related to the embarrassing situation of the Bundesliga after the Kirsch Group went bankrupt. After all, the Bundesliga teams were having a very difficult time at that time. Bayern was also cutting back on clothing and diet. Now that they have some money, they are naturally unwilling to spend it lavishly."
When Begiristain said this, he shook his head and smiled and said: "I have heard before that Hoeness is a housekeeper. Bayern's superstar strategy is fully promoted by Beckenbauer and Rummenigge."
Even though the Big Three have a good relationship, in fact, their philosophies are quite different.
When it comes to making money, Bayern is very high-profile, but when it comes to spending money, the Bundesliga leader is as low-key as possible.
Except for the year when Su Dong was introduced, Bayern basically did not make any major transfer moves in the rest of the year.
…
Manchester City's moves in the transfer market this summer have not been smooth.
Although the team has stars like Robinho, its attraction to top players is still quite weak.
To put it bluntly, last season's performance was too crotch-heavy.
The original transfer fee of Robinho, the top bidder, was as high as 49 million euros, but now, it is less than 30 million euros, and it is even worthless. Because Robinho's skills disappeared during the winter break, many people were disappointed.
The teams were daunted.
Similarly, he also lost Guardiola's trust because of this incident.
Guardiola himself has strict standards for players. For example, players like Adebayor and Kolo Toure are not within the scope of his consideration. He wants to introduce Pepe or Lucio, but these two
It is difficult to poach famous players.
Not only that, in the midfielder position, what Guardiola actually wants most is Xavi Alonso of Liverpool. He even went to Liverpool in person and had a long talk with Xavi Alonso, but Xavi Alonso
Alonso clearly told Guardiola that it would be difficult for him to refuse the invitation from Real Madrid, so Guardiola was forced to buy Busquets, an old player from Barcelona's second team.
He recognized Busquets' ability, but he was too young and not as experienced as Xabi Alonso.
With the team's poor performance and the team's reorganization, many players including Jo, Elano, Bodinov, and Sturridge have chosen to leave the team, which makes Manchester City also need to play in the midfield.
Signings.
Guardiola also has very high requirements for midfielders. After the failure to introduce Iniesta, he gave the target of David Silva, Modric, Cesc Fabregas and other three major midfielders.
Both are very popular targets, and even backup players Aquilani and Gareth Barry are also difficult to operate.
Not to mention the striker, the Sudong that Guardiola wants is basically impossible, the alternative Dzeko has also renewed his contract with Wolfsburg, Tevez and Adebayor are not considered by Guardiola
Fortunately, it is more likely to be Santa Cruz in Blackburn.
There are still two wings, whether they are wingers in the frontcourt or full-backs in the defense, they all need to bring in strong reinforcements.
Among them, the left back is the most urgent. Guardiola really wants to get Marcelo, but Bayern has no intention of negotiating Marcelo's transfer.
The Abu Dhabi Consortium does not set too many restrictions on Manchester City's transfers and gives the technical team and Guardiola enough authority. However, due to the impact of the club's performance, it is basically impossible to truly introduce outstanding players.
Even Robinho is clamoring to leave the team.
Therefore, Soriano and Begiristain now have money on hand and cannot spend it!

Summer transfers always feature wealthy clubs.
Florentino's Real Madrid is the protagonist among the protagonists.
It started with Kaka, followed by head coach Pellegrini, followed by Xavi Alonso, Arbeloa and other local players, all of which greatly improved Real Madrid's strength.
After entering July, Real Madrid soon officially announced that it had successfully signed Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United for a record-breaking price of 94 million euros. This transfer will break the historical record set by Su Dong.
, becoming the historical transfer king in world football.
Due to the setback in bringing in Sudong, Real Madrid soon announced that it would bring in Benzema from Lyon for a transfer fee of up to 35 million euros.
It can be said that Florentino showed a completely different skill and courage from his predecessor Calderon. He made everyone marvel at his operational ability, allowing Real Madrid to re-emerge as a global media and media player overnight.
The focus of fans' attention.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Many media have even asserted that Real Madrid in the new season will be a strong contender for the Champions League.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and Benzema, the top names from the three major leagues gather at Real Madrid. Is there anything more exciting and anticipated than this?
…
As Real Madrid's mortal enemy, Barcelona is also not idle.
While Real Madrid was recruiting heavily, Rosell poached Ibrahimovic from Inter Milan for a sky-high price of 70 million euros, completing what Mourinho expected. Ibrahimovic,
The trident combination of Eto'o and Messi.
On the defensive line, after the introduction of Lucio and Pepe failed, Barcelona introduced Zygrinski from Shakhtar Donetsk.
The central defender performed well in the Champions League last season. He is tall and strong and has amazing potential.
Mourinho hopes that the addition of Zygrinski can fill the weakness of Barcelona's defense, especially in preventing high balls.
Two transfers alone cost over 100 million euros, and Barcelona also showed their aggressiveness this summer.
The arms race between the Spanish Super League duos has also successfully attracted the attention of the world.
…
After a period of operation, the transfer of wealthy Manchester City has also made progress.
After Sudong and Dzeko suffered setbacks, Manchester City introduced Paraguayan center Santa Cruz from Blackburn Rovers for a high price of 17 million euros. Guardiola is full of expectations for him and believes that he can attack Manchester City in the new season.
Break out the stronghold.
Robinho eventually transferred to AC Milan for a high price of 20 million euros. Players such as Elano, Jo and Bodinov also left the team one after another. Manchester City wanted to introduce Aquilani in the midfield.
As a result, the Roma midfielder went to Liverpool.
After several twists and turns, Begiristain targeted Valencia's David Silva as a midfielder and repeatedly raised his bid, hoping to lure Su Dong's close friend from the Bat Corps.
But the first one to be finalized was Benfica's winger Di Maria. His agent is Mendes. In the past period of time, Begiristain had been in constant contact with Mendes regarding the transfer of Sudong, so he signed the contract.
Di Maria was acquired for a transfer fee of 15 million euros.
In addition, Manchester City also signed Sanchez from Udinese in Serie A for a transfer fee of 15 million euros.
Manchester City has also launched a pursuit of Navas, who plays for Sevilla, hoping to recruit the Spanish winger.
In mid-July, Valencia finally relented under Manchester City's gold and dollar offensive.
For 28 million euros, Manchester City defeated Real Madrid and successfully signed the young Spanish international from Valencia.
Guardiola was very excited about the successful signing of David Silva. In the press release announcing the joining of David Silva, Guardiola said that Manchester City had found the core of the midfield and he firmly believed that David Silva
Watt will succeed with his team and his tactics.
Subsequently, Manchester City successively announced the signing of Gareth Barry from Aston Villa for 12 million euros and the introduction of Sylvinho from Barcelona on a free transfer.
Through a series of operations, Manchester City has taken on a new look and its overall strength has improved compared to before.
But both the British and European media are full of concerns about Guardiola's coaching. I wonder how far this Barcelona legend, who has never coached a first team, can take this wealthy team?
In just one year, the Abu Dhabi consortium invested 200 million euros in transfer fees. If you include salaries, club expenses and other investments, it is conservatively estimated to be around 500 million euros.
If so much is invested, Manchester City is still struggling in the middle, which is unjustifiable in any case.
…
Entering late July, Bayern is about to usher in the German Super Cup.
Prior to this, Bayern officially announced that it had successfully signed Brazilian right back Rafinha from Schalke 04.
Hoeness finally took action and signed the right back who Heynckes was quite optimistic about, hoping that he could strengthen the team's bench on the right.
And this will be Bayern's only introduction this season.
With players such as Ribery, Robben, Schweinsteiger and Lahm renewing their contracts, Bayern also ushered in the first official game of the new season.
