Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 1 Start with the acquisition of Crystal Palace Club
Chen Ran was reborn, back in 2003.

Looking at the strange room, combined with the memory in his mind, he was very sure.

In his previous life, he was a veteran football fan. After the national football team failed in the world preliminaries again, he drank too much.

Then, he became the current Huaguo international student who just graduated from Liverpool University's Football Management MBA.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for activating the football manager system."

"Hey, is this the legendary Goldfinger?"

"Ding, the system has purchased the English Championship team Crystal Palace Football Club as a novice gift package, please accept it as soon as possible." (The name of the English Championship was changed in 2004, for convenience, one year in advance)
"Fuck, even if it's not Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool, give me a Premier League team anyway."

"Because the host's MBA internship is in Crystal Palace, I bought this club for the host."

"Can it be changed?"

"No."

In an instant, Chen Ran wanted to die.

The University of Liverpool has a cooperative relationship with the Football Association, and the football management MBA internship will be assigned to the Football Association and various clubs.

Anyone who has stayed abroad knows that all kinds of invisible ceilings are everywhere.

The FA and major clubs definitely didn't have Chen Ran's internship opportunities, so they found a Championship team, Crystal Palace, and sent him away.

"The English Championship is the English Championship. At worst, it will take an extra year to play in the Premier League."

As a senior fan, Chen Ran has played various football games, and he has not been left behind in every generation of Football Manager.

Therefore, in his eyes, with the football manager system, there should be no problem in upgrading to the Premier League.

Moreover, his goal is more ambitious, not just to run a club well, that would be too small.

He has already begun to imagine that in the future, children with football talents will be selected from China, and then brought to the world's highest football league for training, training and competition.

Fight for the rise of Chinese football!
However, given the current situation of Crystal Palace, if he returns to China to select talents, he will probably be regarded as a liar.

Therefore, it is better to make the Crystal Palace club bigger and stronger first, at least to win the Premier League championship.

Opening the system panel, Chen Ran checked various data of the Crystal Palace.

"Excessive!"

After excluding various expenses, the funds that Crystal Palace can now use for transfers are only 35 euros.

Just last month, Abramovich just bought Chelsea with 1.5 million pounds, and then waved money around to buy people, causing the player's value to skyrocket.

35, what is this money enough for?

"System, isn't this money too little?"

"Crystal Palace only has so much money in its account. However, the system can give the host additional winning bonuses."

"How about the bonus?"

"One million euros for a league win, 100 euros for a FA Cup and League Cup win, 50 million euros for a UEFA Cup win, and 150 million euros for a Champions League win. All funds will be remitted by the system in a secure manner. into your private account.” (For convenience, the currency is unified in Euro)

"That's about the same. However, the UK has a labor certification system. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to introduce players from China?"

"The system will help the host apply for special genius terms, including."

"That's good."

Chen Ran thought about it for a while, as long as he gets off to a good start, everything will be revived after winning a few games.

Looking at Crystal Palace's current list of players, I don't know anyone. It seems that we must buy some players with strong immediate combat capabilities.

But it's only 35 euros, what a bargain.

Gotta find a way to get some money.

Chen Ran didn't care that it was already late at night, so he picked up the phone and called his MBA classmate and friend.

"Brothers, I bought the Crystal Palace club, are you interested in helping me manage the team?"

"Fxxxk!"

"OMG!"

Early the next morning, Chen Ran was woken up by two uninvited guests.

"Hey, Chen, you're so mean. Just throw us an explosive message in the middle of the night and forget about it. Do you know I couldn't sleep last night?"

A short, fat fellow yelled as soon as he entered the door.

The tall, thin man who followed him also stared at Chen Ran with a bad expression.

The little fat man with a natural sense of joy like Maitreya Buddha is named Luis Figel, a Uruguayan.

A tall, thin man with a serious look, his name is Stephen Sain, and he is British.

"It's just a Championship club, not Manchester United, Arsenal or Liverpool." Chen Ran shrugged, looking indifferent.

"That would cost a lot of money. I didn't expect you to be a rich man."

Even though he had digested it all night, Louis still couldn't restrain his excitement, and even Stephen, who had always been reserved, couldn't help but nod along.

"Stop talking nonsense, would you like to work with me?"

"Of course I would! My father is too eccentric and handed over the agency to my elder brother. I must prove that I am no worse than him."

Luis waved his fist and said categorically that his father is Juan Figel, a famous football agent in South America.

"Count me in too."

Stephen also readily agreed. His father is the famous British Marquess of Bath, who had 74 mistresses.It's a pity that he is only one of many illegitimate children, and the title is destined to have nothing to do with him.

"Okay, it really is a brother."

"Stephen, do you know anyone at the bank?"

Chen Ran looked at Stephen. Although his father was philandering, his family was an old British aristocrat with unfathomable connections.

Stephen was taken aback for a moment, and then reacted.

"What? Are you short of money?"

"It's not that I'm short of money, but our Crystal Palace club is short of money. Now the team has only 35 euros in the account that can be used for transfers."

"so little?"

"Yes, I want to buy people to strengthen the team, but this little money can't do anything."

"Then what are you going to do? Find a bank loan? Judging from the situation of the Crystal Palace Club, it should be possible to get a loan of 200-300 million euros from the bank."

Stephen is a genuine high-achieving student. After receiving a call from Chen Ran last night, he found out the situation of the Crystal Palace Club overnight.

"300 million euros? Too little." Chen Ran frowned, which was far from what he expected.

"In this way, Stephen, please contact a few more banks. As long as you can get enough euros, I can mortgage all the shares of the Crystal Palace Club and sign a gambling agreement. If I can't pay back the money on time, the club will belong to them."

Supported by the extra winning bonuses given by the system, Chen Ran was very confident.

As long as you can keep winning, the money is not a problem.

"What? Chen, are you too crazy?"

Chen Ran's tiger-wolf words shocked the two of them, it was too radical.

"Chen, do you think about it again?"

Fatty Louis swallowed hard, his eyes widened.

"Don't think about it, either don't do it, or do it big if you want to do it."

"I bought the football team not just for fun, I want to build the Crystal Palace into the strongest team in the world. How about it, do you two dare to take a gamble with me?" Chen Ran stared at the two with piercing eyes .

"FxxK, you are not afraid of your money, what am I afraid of?"

Fatty Louis was so stimulated that he screamed, and Stephen nodded frequently, but he never raised any objections.
