After settling the affairs of the United States, Levi returned to Liverpool to watch the second phase of the Anfield Stadium expansion project.

The reason why many giants earn so much is inseparable from their stadiums.Take Arsenal as an example. Although he does not invest much in the transfer market every year, Arsenal is actually the top team in the Premier League in terms of revenue.

Arsenal's Emirates Stadium has a capacity of 6 people, and tickets are one of the most expensive club tickets in Europe. Tickets account for almost 30.00% of their revenue.

Levi plans to expand the Anfield Stadium into a stadium that can accommodate more than 6 people.After the completion of the first phase of expansion last season, the capacity of the Anfield stadium has increased from the original 5000 to 9000.The current goal is to increase the capacity of Anfield Stadium to 4000 people after the second phase of the expansion is completed.

However, expansion is not a simple word, he needs money.

Due to the depreciation of the pound and rising prices, Liverpool already needs more funds to invest in expansion.

Fortunately, Liverpool's economic situation is very good, and banks are willing to give Liverpool loans.

But Liverpool can't always count on bank loans, banks are not philanthropists, they need interest!If there is not enough income to support the expansion of Anfield Stadium, maybe Liverpool will become the former Arsenal, burdened with huge debts for the stadium, and have to sell the captain and core every year.

…………

Up to now, some of Liverpool's transfers have almost been completed.

Queens Park Rangers have the highest sincerity. They are ready to bite their teeth and buy Hernandez for 2000 million pounds, and the transfer tends to be completed.

The price is also relatively suitable.

Barcelona offered Bell, although the price was very sincere, and offered a transfer fee of 5000 million euros plus 1000 million euros in incidental clauses, with a maximum transfer fee of 6000 million euros.

But Levi refused. On the one hand, Bell's value is not only 6000 million euros, on the other hand, Levi doesn't like Barcelona's transaction method, and they want to pay in installments.

Many clubs choose to pay in installments when buying players. The question is, why pay in installments if they can get all the transfer fees at once?
Now Bell has no shortage of buyers. Manchester City, Real Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain don't mind using a one-time payment to win the Welsh star.

Bayern Munich wanted to buy Lewandowski, and the Bundesliga giants saw the contradiction between Lewandowski and Suarez.Especially now that Liverpool's striker competition is fierce, Lewandowski and Suarez can only choose one person.After observation, Bayern Munich is more inclined to Lewandowski, especially they have intuitively felt Lewandowski's power in the Champions League final.

In addition to Bayern Munich, there is also Chelsea seeking to buy Lewandowski or Suarez.

At the end of this season, Chelsea's results were unsatisfactory, and they also accelerated the pace of reconstruction.After Drogba's contract expired, he was free to transfer to Shenhua in the Chinese Super League, while his former teammate Anelka had already arrived in Shenhua in the winter transfer window.

The departure of the two strikers also made Chelsea hope to strengthen the striker position.

Compared with Chelsea, Levi is more inclined to sell Lewandowski to Bayern Munich, but Bayern Munich's transfer fee makes Levi difficult to be satisfied.

The transfer fee offered by Bayern Munich is only 3000 million euros.

There is a big gap from the 5000 million euros in Levi's mind.

Chelsea's transfer fee is higher. They are willing to pay Lewandowski a transfer fee of 800 million pounds, equivalent to 100 million euros.

Levi was not in a hurry, and let Harry Thompson talk slowly.

Now that the European Cup is about to start, Lewandowski will also play for Poland. He has performed well and can help Liverpool increase the price.

…………

After dealing with these matters, Li Wei flew to Donetsk, a big city in Ukraine, without touching the ground. There is a famous team in this city-Shakhtar Donetsk.

This team is also a famous European star factory.

Tymoshchuk, who played for Bayern Munich, came from Shakhtar Donetsk.

Douglas Costa who will play for Bayern Munich in the future, Willian who will play for Chelsea in the future, Fernandinho who will play for Manchester City in the future, Teixeira who will play for Jiangsu Suning in the future, etc., these are Shakhtar Donetsk birth.

When Li Wei came to this city, it was natural for him to visit Shakhtar Donetsk.He quickly spotted several future stars in Shakhtar Donetsk's formation.

Douglas Costa, Mkhitaryan, Willian and Fernandinho, they are all part of Shakhtar Donetsk now.

Li Wei felt a little itchy in his heart. He wanted to network all these people into the Liverpool team, but he still didn't do it in the end.

Because he knows that Liverpool doesn't have enough chances to play for these little monsters. It's great for them to come to Liverpool to play in the reserve team, or to go out on loan.This will greatly affect the future development of the players. Maybe they will not be able to achieve their original achievements under Levi's intervention.

In the end, Li Wei just arranged for scouts to secretly observe the performance of these players, and to build a good relationship with each other in private.

His focus is on the England national team.

On June [-]th, England's first game in the European Cup is about to start, and the opponent is not weak. It is the French national team, a traditional European giant.

Levi didn't intervene too much in Hodgson's formation. He just appeared in the training base and watched silently. When the game came, he didn't even enter the bench as an assistant coach.

He sat in a box with FA chairman David Bernstein and Prince William to watch the game.
