Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 248 The Blueprint of the Football Kingdom

Hearing Chen Ran's words, Van der Liet seemed very happy, and shook his head with a smile.

"I know all this, but I don't care anymore. I like football, but my ability is limited. There is no way to bring Willem II to the top of Europe."

"So instead of letting it continue to be mediocre like this, I might as well give it to you. Let William II become part of the future football kingdom, which can be regarded as fulfilling my wish."

"Of course, the reason why I did this is also selfish. After I leave, if Catherine encounters any difficulties in the future, I hope you can help her."

"Grandpa, I don't want you to leave me."

Before Van Der Lit finished speaking, Catherine cried and threw herself into his arms.

Seeing Van der Lit staring at him, Chen Ran nodded slowly.

The old man really broke his heart for his precious granddaughter, and Chen Ran was also moved by his love for licking the calf.

The next thing is very simple. Van der Litt has already arranged a lawyer, and Stephen also called the lawyer of the Crystal Palace Club because of the reminder of the Marquis of Bath.

Under the witness of the Marquess of Bath and Van der Liet, Chen Ran and Catherine completed the transfer of 51% of the shares in the Willem II Club.

As for the corresponding reporting procedures to the Dutch Football Association and relevant government departments, Van der Liet had already prepared, so Chen Ran didn't need to worry about these matters.

When Chen Ran was about to leave after finishing everything, the Marquis of Bath personally sent him and Stephen out together.

"Boy, remember what I told you before?"

Patting Chen Ran on the shoulder, the Marquis of Bass said pointedly.

"Remember. Uncle, don't worry, what I promised will be done."

Chen Ran knew in his heart what the Marquis of Bath was talking about, and this was to remind himself not to forget the promise.

"Well, just remember. As long as you do what you promised, then my promise will always be valid."

The next day, when Chen Ran just walked into the Crystal Palace club's own office, little fat Louis followed him in.

"Chen, I heard that you took down the Willem II Club yesterday?"

The little fat man stared at Chen Ran excitedly, feeling that he was even more excited than Chen Ran.

"Yes, 500 million euros for a 51% stake in Willem II Club."

"So cheap? There won't be any traps here, right?"

The little fat man said suspiciously that Van der Lit gave him the impression that he was a difficult old fox.

"Oh, it's not as complicated as you think."

Sighing, Chen Ran told the little fat man the ins and outs of the matter.

"So that's how it turned out. There really is something wrong with the sky. Why didn't the old man fall in love with me? It seems that being handsome is taking advantage of me."

Hearing that Chen Ran picked up an Eredivisie club almost for nothing, the little fat man's chubby face wrinkled into a ball, he beat his chest and feet, and shouted that the sky is unfair.

After being funny for a long time, the little fat man who finally calmed down his envy and jealousy suddenly remembered something again.

"Chen, in this way, your Galaxy Football Group will have four teams."

As the little fat man spoke, he rolled his carrot-like fingers and called names.

"Britain has Crystal Palace, Huaguo has Shencheng East Asia, Brazil has Recife Sports, and the Netherlands has King Willem II. Good guy, Chen, your Galaxy Football Group is not small now."

"The scale of the fart is not small."

Seeing the startled look of the little fat man, Chen Ran glared at him angrily.

"Except for Crystal Palace, Shencheng East Asia is the third-tier team in Huaguo, and Recife Sports is the second-tier team in Brazil. Only Willem II is the first-tier team in the Netherlands. They were almost relegated last season."

"Hey, aren't you here?"

The little fat man immediately offered a flattery.

"You were able to bring the unknown Crystal Palace from England's second-tier league to where it is today. Aren't those teams a piece of cake for you?"

Although he knew that the little fat man was flattering, Chen Ran still felt quite comfortable.

Alas, the inferiority of human beings.

"The problem is, I could personally coach Crystal Palace before, and then develop to this level little by little. Do you think it is still possible for me to personally coach Shencheng East Asia, Recife Sports or Willem II?"

"Well, it seems unlikely."

The little fat man touched his big head and stopped talking immediately.

Chen Ran is right, given his current status in the football world, it is unlikely that he will coach those teams.

"Chen, what do you plan to do with those teams, and let them develop on their own according to their original thinking?"

It is a new habit that Louis has developed now to ask Chen Ran when he is indecisive.

"That will definitely not work. If this is the case, these teams don't know when they will develop."

Chen Ran touched his nose and threw out a new idea of ​​his own.

"Luiz, what do you think of me sending Guardiola, Southgate and Simeone to the three clubs as head coaches?"

"what?"

The little fat man was immediately overwhelmed by Chen Ran's unconstrained ideas.

He knows Guardiola, Southgate and Simeone. He has been an assistant coach for Chen Ran for the past few years, and he is a good helper for Chen Ran.

"Chen, you mean you want to train the three of them to be head coaches?"

"That's right. All three of them have the potential to be head coaches. It's impossible for them to be my assistant coaches all the time."

Chen Ran nodded, and then analyzed his thoughts to the little fat man.

"Instead of going to other teams to coach and become our opponents in the future, it is better to let them start their coaching career within the Galaxy Football Group now."

"Then choose the best performer from them and take over from me at Crystal Palace in the future."

"Ah? Chen, what are you doing? Are you not going to coach Crystal Palace?"

Hearing Chen Ran's last words, Louis was taken aback and almost cried out.

"Be obedient and listen to the whole thing, what I'm talking about is the future!"

Chen Ran tapped the desk table heavily with his fingers, and once again glared at the little fat man who made a fuss.

"You have also seen it. I am both the club's owner and the club's head coach. When there is a game, I have to lead the team. When there is no game, I have to deal with various matters of the club."

"Whether it's the players, the coaches or the club managers like you, everyone has time to rest, but I don't. Among other things, I don't even have much time to go out with Cheryl."

"I'm still young and can handle it now, but I may not be able to bear it in a few years, so I have to prepare for the future."

After hearing Chen Ran's words, the little fat man fell silent.

Others don't know, but they only see that Chen Ran is enjoying a bright future.

But those around Chen Ran knew exactly how much he had paid for the Crystal Palace.

As the owner of Crystal Palace, Chen Ran could have lived a relaxed life.

However, now he has become the busiest person in the entire Crystal Palace club.

As Chen Ran said, he really had almost no time to rest.

If you were yourself, you would have collapsed long ago, right?
Comparing his heart to his heart, the little fat man felt that Chen Ran was able to persist in this kind of life until now, he was really a strong man.

"I see. Then how do you plan to arrange the three of them? You must know that the situation of the three teams is very different now. It is not easy to assign who will coach which team."

Now that he accepted Chen Ran's plan, the little fat man began to help Chen Ran consider the specific implementation of the plan.

"This matter is not in a hurry now. Even if the three of them are to be head coaches, it will be a matter of next season."

"Whether it is Recife Sporting, William II or Shencheng East Asia, we just took over this year. We need to reorganize the organizational structure of these three clubs according to our Crystal Palace standards."

"Especially in Shencheng East Asia, we are not the controlling shareholder yet, we still need the approval of director Xu to do these things."

"So, the main task of the Galaxy Football Group this year is to digest the three new clubs and make their clubs' organizational structure consistent with that of Crystal Palace."

"The existing staff of these clubs will first gather at the headquarters of the Galaxy Football Group to study. After the study is over, they will be assessed. Those who pass will stay in their posts, and those who fail will be let go."

"My goal is that in the future, all teams under the Galaxy Football Group, whether it is players, coaches, team doctors or club management personnel, can communicate with each other without barriers."

"Communicate with each other without barriers? Chen, you really want to build a football kingdom!"

Hearing the magnificent blueprint described by Chen Ran, the little fat man was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

If Chen Ran bought the club before and became the head coach within the normal range, then what Chen Ran is going to do now may really be making history.

Although I know that this matter must be difficult, I don't know how long it will take to complete it, and it is even unknown whether it can be completed.

But as long as he thinks that he is doing something unprecedented and creating history, the little fat man trembles with excitement that he can be a part of it.

Although the blueprint of the football kingdom is grand, the meal needs to be eaten bite by bite.

After playing the Champions League game against Hamburg, with only two days off, Crystal Palace ushered in the No.14 round of the Premier League. They will go to challenge Fulham away.

Because he just finished playing the Champions League, Chen Ran made a big rotation in this game.

In the end, with the goals of Jan Kohler, Mascherano and Southgate, Crystal Palace defeated Fulham 3:2 in the away game and continued to lead the Premier League standings.

And in this round of the Premier League, there is another highlight that attracts attention, and that is the current second-ranked Manchester United against third-ranked Chelsea.

As a result, the two teams drew 1:1 at Old Trafford, which made it easier for Crystal Palace to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

This time, Manchester United's points behind Crystal Palace changed from three points to five points, while Chelsea went from four points to six points.

Especially when interviewed by reporters after the game, the bad faces of Ferguson and Mourinho were published on the front page of the newspaper by the good media.

And between the two of them, there was a picture of Chen Ran laughing while holding the Premier League trophy.

The title is also very eye-catching: "This season's Premier League title has been determined!"

When the little fat man put the newspaper on Chen Ran's desk, Chen Ran also smiled wryly.

Damn, this is simply a disaster.

The game between Manchester United and Chelsea has something to do with me.

However, this reporter is quite creative, you can consider adding a chicken leg.

Because this week's Premier League is a week of double matches, four days later, the No. 15 round of the Premier League will start again.

This time, Crystal Palace is going away to challenge Newcastle United.

After the last round of rotation and rest, Chen Ran dispatched the entire main lineup for this game.

The result can be imagined, with the goals of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Thiago Silva and Ronaldo, Crystal Palace easily won Newcastle United 3-0 in the away game.

Two days later, the No.16 round of the Premier League will kick off again. This time Crystal Palace will host Bolton at home.

Bolton this season should not be underestimated. They are currently ranked No.4 after Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Chelsea.

An important reason for their outbreak is that they spent 1200 million euros during the summer transfer period, the highest price in the club's history, to introduce the famous French striker Anelka.

For this reason, Chen Ran also specially arranged the team's main lineup to continue playing.

At this time, the benefits of Crystal Palace qualifying for the UEFA Champions League group stage in advance are reflected.

After playing against Bolton in the Premier League, Crystal Palace will go to Portugal to play Porto.Because the emergency quota has been locked in advance, Crystal Palace can now send a substitute lineup to play Porto.

The game against Bolton was indeed difficult to play. Anelka played bravely and scored two goals alone.

Relying on the goals of Ibrahimovic, Modric and Chiellini, Crystal Palace defeated Bolton 3:2.

Four days later, at Porto's home court, Crystal Palace's substitutes struggled tenaciously and lost to Porto with the last goal.

With four wins, one draw and one loss in six games, they advanced to the top [-] of the Champions League as the first in the group.

After the game, Chen Ran led the team and flew back to England overnight.

Because just one day later, the No.17 round of the Premier League will start again, and Crystal Palace will go to an away game against Watford.

Fortunately, Watford is currently ranked last in the Premier League, and the main players on the Crystal Palace side have also undergone a rotation break.

Therefore, without much effort, Crystal Palace beat Watford 4-0 with the goals of Ronaldo, Kaka, Ibrahimovic and Vidic.

After the game, Chen Ran immediately flew to Japan with the Crystal Palace.

Because, this year's Club World Cup is about to start.
