Chapter 749 Hemorrhage
The gap between the rich and the poor in the La Liga is undoubtedly quite serious, it can be said that it is a death from flooding and thirst.
Just like the Galaxy Battleship Real Madrid, Florentino claimed that he had hundreds of millions of euros in his hand, but was struggling to find the superstar he wanted. He is currently targeting Manchester United's Rooney and offered a sky-high price of nearly 70 million euros.
Barcelona is also rich. Guardiola wants to get Ibrahimovic. In order to convince Inter Milan, Barcelona is willing to include Etoo in the transfer plan and pay Inter Milan a considerable transfer fee.
For these two rich teams, who often transfer tens of millions of dollars, there is no way to think of a newly promoted team like Chinatown.
Chinatown spent four million euros this summer, and it was Armando Marcos who had been frugal and saved money. After spending it, the general manager of Chinatown almost cried.
That made Gao Han feel sad.
"If poverty is a disease, there is no doubt that I must have a terminal illness."
When saying this, Atletico Madrid chairman Cerrezo, general manager Hill Jr. and newly appointed coach Diego Simeone visited Chinatown. Several people sat around Gao Han's office and smiled and talked about Chinatown's big moves this summer. Gao Han cried poorly.
But Cerezo, Little Hill and others laughed loudly.
"Okay, if you cry poorly, will you let people live?" Xiao Hill was unhappy first.
"Not? Who in the world doesn't know that your annual salary is 50 million pounds after tax, and you're still poor?" Cerezo cursed.
Diego Simeone looked envious, because he has always been trying hard to make Gao Han.
But gradually, he found that the distance between him and Gao Han seemed to be getting farther and farther.
"I'm not talking about me, it's Chinatown." Gao Han looked like you really didn't understand me. "You count the twenty teams in La Liga, how many of them have less investment than us?"
After hearing this, Xiao Hill smiled, "Don't say, so far, there are teams with fewer than you, such as Salez, Osasuna and Sporting Gijon. These three teams have much less investment than you."
Indeed, according to the official data released by La Liga, Chinatown has indeed invested more than them.
"Sports Gijon is probably really not rich. Otherwise, judging from the thrilling degree of their relegation last season, they will definitely increase their investment. Look at the two Madrid teams Getafe and Valladolid, both teams with Sporting Gijon last season, and the relegation was particularly thrilling, but they all invested more than 10 million euros this summer."
The three of them also nodded in agreement with Gao Han's judgment.
To put it bluntly, the professional league is more confident than investment. Whoever is willing to invest will be more confident.
Of course, players are like a product placed on the shelves in the transfer market, getting what you pay for, and clearly marked prices, but if you pursue higher prices, you get what you pay for two cents and three dollars.
Because of this, every team in every league will have a very clear and clear positioning of themselves in the league, which must be formulated based on the team's fiscal budget and its own strength.
Just like Chinatown, Gao Han set a goal this season to relegate, and the investment of four million euros is also for relegation.
Like Sporting Gijon, there are no players sold, but no introductions, and relegation in the new season will be difficult.
Of course, large investment may not be very good.
Just like Getafe, there are not many signings and the money is spent very much, while Valladolid spends a lot of money, but he has introduced fourteen players, which can be said to be a damn thing, which may not be a good thing for the new season.
"Osasuna's own strength is there, and there is no need to sign too many players. It is definitely no problem to relegate. As for Salez, he is very careful, but I guess, they may be the one who has done the worst this season."
"Why?" Diego Simeone asked curiously.
Gao Han looked at the former disciple and smiled, "Loan is a very cost-effective way to have players, but the problem is that the players lack a sense of security, and it is difficult for the teams on loan to play with all their strength. Look at Zarez this season, with so many players on loan, can such a team be competitive?"
This is also the reason why Gao Han insists on promoting youth training and buying out players in the past two or three years.
To put it bluntly, if the players who came on loan play well, they will be a wedding dress for others. If they don’t play well, they will suffer losses.
As for those like Diego Costa, who rents first and then buys out, another matter.
"To be honest, your goal this season is really just to relegate?" Xiao Hill was a little surprised. This didn't look like Gao Han's style.
Gao Han looked at the rich second generation with a wry smile, "I said, buddy, why don't you lend me 40 million and I will buy a group of people right away and strive to enter the top ten, is it okay?"
Xiao Hill and others burst into laughter.
With the team of Chinatown, the investment of 40 million euros is reasonable to enter the top ten.
"It doesn't matter to me, but the question is, if you borrowed 40 million yuan, can you survive the financial review of the Football Association?"
Gao Han curled his lips, and he was really helpless.
In recent years, football associations in various countries have reviewed the financial situation of the club. Too much debt is not allowed, and some may even be ordered to be demoted. Therefore, even if a tycoon like Abramovich and Mansour want to use money to burn for the club, they have to make a name for themselves.
The reason is very simple, you have to make accounts.
For example, when Chelsea used to ask Abramovich for money, they had to write IOUs, and the accounting was recorded as the club's debt. So in those years, whether it was the Premier League or UEFA, they had been focusing on Chelsea's debts and warned many times.
Almost every year, some teams in European football are ordered to be demoted or the upgrade quota is cancelled due to debt.
Manchester City's current approach is different from Chelsea. It directly injects capital through huge sponsorships, which is not considered debt. However, the flaws of this approach are also obvious. That is, once Manchester City withdraws its investment in the future, the funds invested will definitely not be returned.
On the contrary, like Abramovich, it is a debt, and even if the club goes bankrupt, it can still be recovered.
As for Gao Han, he was not poor, but he was not as rich as to burn money.
To be honest, he only needs some salary. If he really takes it out, it is hard to say whether he can burn it into the European War qualification zone, but does that make sense?
Therefore, his strategy is still very responsible, he accumulates honestly and cultivates the current group of players in the team.
In a short period of time, as long as he can gain a foothold in the La Liga, Gao Han will be satisfied.
"By the way, today I will come to you, in addition to reminiscing about the past, I also want to tell you something."
"What?" Gao Han asked with a smile.
Hill smiled slightly, "We have officially signed an agreement with Valladolid, and Sergio Assenho will transfer to our Atletico Madrid for 5.5 million euros."
After hearing this news, Gao Han immediately expressed his joy because he knew what was behind this transfer.
As early as Beijing, Gao Han asked Paul Fottery to dig the corner of Atletico Madrid, and he was not secretly at all, but talked openly because he knew very well that Atletico Madrid needed some money.
Originally, Gao Han’s target was four people, midfielder David Silva, Xavi Alonso, defender Ramos, and goalkeeper Peter Cech. These four players were all brought by Gao Han, and they were all brought to Atletico Madrid.
But as a result, after Paul Footre negotiated with Atletico Madrid, the Bedding Legion initially only agreed to the transfer between Xavi Alonso and David Silva, because at the corresponding position, Atletico Madrid has enough talent reserves.
But on the issue of central defender Ramos, Atletico Madrid made it clear that it was impossible.
Gao Han personally called Hill and Cerrezo, and finally convinced them, and recommended Valladolid's goalkeeper Asenjo to replace him. Gao Han believed that the goalkeeper had the potential to grow into Casillas, so he convinced Atletico Madrid to release Peter Cech.
Manchester City paid a full 100 million euros for David Silva, Xavi Alonso and Peter Cech, which was a huge hit.
But these three players are all crucial members of the central axis in the Gaohan program, so the money is worth it.
It’s a pity that Ramos failed to come to Manchester City, which made Gao Han somewhat regretful.
Fortunately, he found a suitable replacement.
"Why did you suddenly turn around to Bilbao before when you went to San Sebastian?" Xiao Hill asked strangely.
Gao Han just laughed and looked like I wouldn't tell you, which made Xiao Hill helpless.
On the contrary, Cerezo, who was standing aside, sighed softly, "To be honest, if this million euro could help us pay off our bank debts, we wouldn't have considered selling these three players."
The three tiger generals are regarded by Gao Han as the central axis of Manchester City in the future, but isn’t it the central axis of Atletico Madrid?
In the past few years, Atletico Madrid has sold people almost every year, all for that new stadium.
Now that the new stadium is opened and the debt is paid off, you can breathe a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, even if we sell three generals, we will still attack the league championship in the new season." Diego Simone is full of confidence in this.
Gao Han nodded to Simeone with admiration. He was optimistic about his former disciple.
Especially Diego Simeone's ruthlessness is very consistent with Atletico Madrid's characteristics. He believes that Simeone will bring a new situation to Atletico Madrid.
…………
…………
As a La Liga team, Chinatown's transfer investment of only 4 million euros can't make a wave in the vast transfer market, but the team's background and legendary resume still attracts attention.
But the two giants Real Madrid and Barcelona are the real protagonists.
In the stalemate of the introduction of Ibrahimovic, Guardiola was frustrated when trying to introduce Ramos from Atletico Madrid, and instead introduced central defender Ziglinsky from Donetsk miners, hoping to strengthen the team's defense line to make a goal.
After Real Madrid announced that Mourinho was coaching, they introduced local players such as Raul Albiol, Aveloa and Granero in one go. In addition, the central defender Gare who returned on loan, it was obvious when Real Madrid reorganized.
At the same time, in poaching Manchester United central defender Pepe, Real Madrid quickly took action and introduced Portuguese international central defender Bruno Alves from Porto at a high price of 30 million euros by paying the termination fee.
According to Ass, the player is a central defender appointed by Mourinho and will provoke Real Madrid's defense in the new season.
While continuing to attack many superstars, including Rooney and Ribery, Real Madrid is also cleaning up more than a dozen players, including Sneijder, Negredo and Hunteral.
A huge round of purge began in Bernabeu.
But just when Gao Han agreed to go to the UK to take office with peace of mind, Paul Futrad, who was far away in Manchester, suddenly called.
A team extended their poaching tentacles to Manchester City.
